thing "*a the true faith of a Christian " would be
an almmulity. In order to attain the object foe
which the oath is administered, it is necessary when
a Jew takes it, to omit thaw words, or sbwas• them
to " the true faith of a Jew." The statute 1 Vita a
103 authorises the House of Commons to make such
an alteration, and the House has made another formal
alteration, even before that statute was passed.
The demur to waive the utterance of the words

cant), ailer allowing him to substitute the Old Testa-
ment foe the New, In taking the ➢recious oaths, is
rank Scribe and Phariess " straining at a gnat and
swallowing a camel." The refuel to be sworn on
the gospels was as explicit a disclaimer of being a
Quietism, as the refusal to otter the wards "on the
true faith of a Mistiest." If it was uonecessary
'eau upon the Biron's profewdeg to be a Christina
by a symbolical action, how can it be necessary to
insist upon hie professing to be a Christian by a ver-
bal formula The distinction thereby attempted se
be established between a declaration by words mad
a declaration by an external sign is worthy of the
school of casuists which decided that it was senses
sin when asked whether a man had gone in a muds
direetioa to say no if he had, but that it was no elm
to mislead the querist by pointing in an opposite
direction.

The second document hi the circular note above
alluded to. This note states that no government had
hitherto positively rejected the peace, that a great
number had approved it in the form in which their
opinions had been desired, and that it was not to be
supposed that the government would allow difficulties
of form to stand in the way of that direct
interest which all most feel on the completion of
an important treaty. Baron Schleinitz then proposes
that all the governments shall authorise the Bandon
commission to ratify. He declares that " This
,nodua give to those governments who might enter-
tain material obits:noes to the provisions of the
treaty an opportooity to bring such forward for deli-
beration. On the other hand, were a Plenum
called to ratify the treaty, seen assembly would be
excluded ad Ace from any discussion of its provisions,
the functions of the Plenum being confined by the
federal constitution to mere voting.
The note dates that on the day which completed the
term assigned for retificatioo, the circumstances
which had rendered that act impossible were ex-
plained to the Danish plenipotentiary, and a request
made for an extension of the time originally fixed.
The ambassador promised to apply for instructions
from Copenhagen. Believing that the Danish go-
vernment was really desirous of acting with a regard
for circumstances, the Prussian cabinet bad on its part
loot no time in forwarding these propnsitions for the
apt edy procurement of ratification, and would feel fa-
voured by a speedy decision. The third note, of which
we gave a summary three days ago, is signed by
Lord Westmoreland, and is es follows :
Berlin, July 4, 1840.—T0 his Excellency Baron Schlei-
ni s, ttc.--I have received from Baton Pechlts, speaking for
himself and hia colleagues, themsarance that he maiden the
words " poems molesters," which in art. 4 at the peace con-
cluded between the Germanic Confederation and Denmark,
are suostitutorl for the word " nehmen " signify that
the King of Denmark is authorised to attempt the re-esta-
blishment of pacific relations with the Duchy of Holstein
wirhout tha intervention of the confederation. Should the
king's endeavours prove fruitless, Baron Pedal' recognists
the obligation of the king, contracted by treaty, to spply to
the confederation before resorting to military measures
for the re-establishing his authority in the duchy.
It is °sly M the cam of a refusal of this intervention so
demanded, or at its inefficiency, that the king would he
authorised to employ his forces against the dacky.—Wcav-
ItOUSLAND.

The miserable sophistical casuistry which seeks te
establish this distinction and elevate it into a rule cf
action leads to a grave violation of tolerant'principle
and the rights of Citizen/. Au intolerant minor 4
are anxious to exclude the Jews from parliament. For
a long time the Jews did not seek admission to
parliament, under the impression that they were ex-
cluded by law. Oa
looking more narrowly into the
matter, it is found that there is no law for their exclu-
sion. The only hindrance to their admission is an ac-
cidental circumstance—an unessential form in one of
the oaths which are administered to members of par-
liament before they take their seats. There is a sta-
tute which authorises the House of Commons to alter
the mere form of any oath. The House of Comma)s
has already altered the form of the very oath which
constitutes the difficulty. By availing itself of the
statute, by acting as it has already done, the House
can remove the accidental, unintentional impediment
to the admission of Jews into parliament.
Bat certain casuistical formulists allege that
it would be more regular, more decorous,
to have the change effected by act of
parliament. We believe the Jews and the general
public care little by what means the obstacles to their
admission is removed, provided it is removed. But
they know that there is a majority in the House of
Lords that will resist as long as they can the passing
of such an act of parliament as is contemplated. They
protest, therefore, against having recourse to an act
of parliament when no such act is required, viewing
the proposal as a meth device to procrastinate, and,
if possible to avert altogether the admission of the
Jews to p4rliansent. They say that the question of
the propriety of admitting the Jews to parliament
having been raised, and it being admitted that there
is no law to exclude them, it is for those who maintain
the negative of the proposition to introduce a bill to
keep them out, not for these who maintain the affir-
mative to let them in. The House of Commons can
remove the accidental impediment to their admission
without foreign aid, and the House of Commons owes
it to the electors from whom it holds its delegated,
temporary, responsible power, to do so.

CoLoGme, JOLT 29. The troops destined to
ink; the detachments at Krenzenach and Wetzlar will
not merch thither, bet be conveyed by rail and
steamer, in order that the junction may be effected as
speedily u possible. The detachments will thus be
completed by the let of August. Five battalions have
just passed through Cologne. We learn from Mainz
that the affair of the Badieh troops hoe had no influ-
ence on the amicable relations of the Anatean and
Prussian civil and military aathoritiee; the proceed-
ings of the vice-governor, in interruption of the re-
moval of the Badish troops, were taken simply in
consequence of the neglect of the usual notification.

_
AUSTRIA.
A telegraphic despatch in the Cologne Casette,
dated Berlin, July 29, states that Austria has invited
the German governments to nominate 17 delegates to
the Germanic Diet.

VIENNA, Jct.? 26.
General Willisen has written to Baron Hess,
Master of the Ordnance, desiring him to send Aus-
trian officers to proceed as volunteers with the Schles-
wig army. The General has particularly specified one
officer of engineers, whose assistance be greatly desi-
&rates. Baron Hese has been compelled to decline
this request in an cfficial manner. Several Austrian
officers, however, have resolved to obey the call, even
at the risk of never spin enterin4 the Austrian
service.

The catholic priesthood at Schleimbach, near Vienna,
have been pretending a display of supernatural power
in the person of a girl, out of whose bands, fser, and
left side blood is said to flow every Friday as
sweat. On her brow are the letters Hundreds
of people hasten to fiebleircbsch to cast their mites
into the sacred treasury iu honour of the new saint.
The courts have investigated the matter, and reported
that the whole history of this miracle turns upon •
fraud ; that the secretion of bloody sweat is accounted
for in • most natural manner, and that the initial
letters have been produced by chemical agents.
Although the fraud has been so clearly proved the
people's (yes are not open, nor will the priesthood be
brought to punishment.
The portfolio of war, laid down by Count Oinlay,
will be held by Field Marshal Lieutenant Czorich,
now named Baron von Czorieh. By whatever title
called he will be a nullity in his offios, the direction
of which will remain practically in the hands of
Count Or iinne.

A report is currant here that our marine force is
about to be greatly increased ; six new ships of the
line and twenty frigates, it is said, are to be com-
pleted in flee yearr.
W URTE MBERO.

The select committee of the National Assembly held
a sitting on the 24th, for the purpose of considering
two royal rescripta received yesterday, concerning
the meeting of the full committee and the completion
of the discussion of the proposed constitutional act ;
aiid also the late address of the committee respect ng
the Danish peace. Theright of the select committee
to summon a fall meeting without the consent of the
government is contested in the first rescript; the
second runs as follows:
