the deficiency of the local rate. So hltiMesence,
wiser in his generation than some Protestant'Arch-
demons, resolves upon the heroic ram* of a
grand consolidation, and appeals to the whole
world of the faithful on behalf of the fabric,
without imposing any disability on conscientious
dissenters. We thank his Eminence for so con-
spicuous an adhesion to so great a principle.
Looking at this Letter in a commercial light, we
are at a ices to understand the precise destination
of what his Eminence, with delightful fresh-
ness of soul, describes as "their penny." The
progress of the revolution, it appears,
being only checked by the troops of
" those who profess themselves to be the
" devoted children of the HOLT FATHML," has
taken away from the Pore " every means of
" meeting the heavy requirements of his army."
What army I Not Lam:alarm's legions I Not
the army of General Ds Goroar T In Dublin a cor-
poral's guard is called by the natives " the army;"
is it the Pontifical Gendarmerie whose "require-
"meats" are so heavy f The " heavy require-
" meats" of "the faithful subjects" will scarcely
be appeased by the pennies of the faithful, aims
they especially include, above all things, abolition of
the temporal sovereignty of His HOIJNTAS. Those
who "have resigned public employments and em-
" braced exile in order to find refuge in Rome " are,
no doubt, the beaten mercenaries, the shim, the
spies, the gaolers, the fiscal entployea, and the
swarms of monks whose occupation in the Adriatic
provinces is gone since the capture of Ancona.
Cardinal Arroirsua, with great dignity, declines
on the part of the HOLT FLTHZE to accept a
subsidy, dogged with conditions, from any Catholic
Power, though he is perfectly willing to accept the
services of an armed force, even from a Power
whose fidelity he impugns. In fact, Cardinal ANTO-
• adopta the safe principle of taking French troops
without asking, and the penny of the faithful with-
out answering, any questions. A few months will
test the value of the copper circulation of the
faithful. The experience of the last year is not
altogether promising. The amount collected at a
time when his bum really had an
army, disappeared too soon in the bottomless
gulf of the Papal exchequer. How long, then,
will the faithful come forward with "their
" penny"! If it were only to sustain the budget
of public works, to repair churches, to build
Suffices, not the faithful only, but even heretics,
might be glad to contribute " their penny." St.
Peter's and the Vatican are in some sort the pos-
session of all civilized Europe. But it is to be
apprehended that in England the faithful will
sooner or later be weary of contributing
" their penny " to the maintenance of •
nest of privileges and monopolies, to an
administration which has nothing but squalor
and pauperism, stagnation and malaria, and
purple stockings, to show for value received. Car-
dinal Armorial may justly make the visitors of
Rome contribute to the splendour of the ceremo-
nials, end to the preservation of the monuments
which attract pilgrims to the Eternal City from all
corners of the earth. But he can hardly expect even
the faithful to go on contributing " their penny "
to the support of surplus monks, • paper army,
• bevy of Monsignori, and the nephews and
nieces of Cardinals who have a passion for coins.
Sr. Para, it is true, found a penny in the mouth
of • fish ; but the fish in whose mouth the penny
for the ~MU plaiaira of ST. Porzz's summers
is to be found, is unknown to the waters of the
British ChanneL

nt Court.
