LONDON. MOYDAY. OCTOBER 21.

Ws published on Friday a letter, and a very Wl-
partaat en, calling in question the right of Cardinal
Nantes, now a prince of a foreign temporal state,
to exgreise authority in this country over the wig,
end over the property and conduct of a large number
fiber linsere's subjects. This day we publish another
letter, called forth by the first one, and augmenting
its importance—displaying but too fully the spirit in
which Cardinal Wiumun is likely to exercise hie
new authority, and the ends to which he is capable
clanger; and employing it.
If we regret, and are disgusted by, the amnia
attitude lately taken in Ireland, and now in England,
by the ultra-zealot party in the catholic church, it is
really for the sake of our catholic fellow-brethren
more thee for ourselves. We should have liked to
me the great reassure of catholic emancipation com-
pleted by some fair erode of dealing with the Irish
church, sad by placing the An ea
as line and the Boman,
at least in that country, in such axtapoeition would
take hem bath the chanter belligerent churches.
But any such intolerance or disaffection: se that re-
vealed In the letter addressed to us, and published to-
day, will alarm not merely the protestants, but the
friends of the monarchy, and the manors of constitu-
tional rights.
We must say, however, in justice to the court of
Borne, that many things and symptoms have lately
happened and been manifested in England W-
estland to deceive it. First of all, a certain
portion of our own clergy, being at the very
centre of theological learning, have avowed
that the regeneration of the church must
be sought in the revival of the authority, not
merely of the eariptures, but of tradition and of
clergy. That such a theory leads straight to Rome,
has become as evident from its effects as from its prin-
ciples. But this principle of authority, after being
resuscitated of itself in an English cloister, has lately
been caught at by the despairing statesmen of all the
countries of Europe, threatened by democratic ideas.
These, even catholic countries, having long repudiated
the authority of the priest, whilst they respected that of
religion, have fallen into anarchy and decey,from cane
no more connected with religion than with mathe-
matics. But statesmen bare looked upon it as a
kind of divine infliction, to be propitiated, as bar-
barians used to seek to avert the danger of an eclipse,
by sacerdotal pomps and human sacrilege. In
France and Austria, where the state, however des-
potic, had repudiated the church, this same church
her been Teetered to its supremacy. No wonder
that the Fors should consider as one, the different
kinds of reaction in his favour. No wonder that
be should buckle on the armour of JULIUS the
SECOND, and seed forth his fighting prelates in
red hats, to drill and grin hie old clergy in foreign
parts, and lead them to the assault of crumbling
citadels.

lint whatever be the purpose, the excuse, or the
calculation of this new crusade, the grand considera-
tion for protestant", sad fur liberal catholic. also, is—
how is it to be met? The writer of the letter we have
referred to, and who signs himself " A Catholic,"
would question the right of the cardinal prince to
exercise authority in things temporal within this
realm and he points out how much of his necessary
jurisdiction will be temporal.
Our high tory cows seem less offended by any
real power that a papal legate may wield than by the
overweening dignity of his title. The claims of the
Roman catholic prelates is Ireland to be allowed their
titles, with the rank and precedence attached, ere as-
sumed to be equally valid is this country ; and Biz R.
'mous is called sppian to nip the budding hamar
of the new hie archy, by a motion in parliament Fo-
hibiting all honours and titles in this enmity which
have not emanated from the crown. Ibis, however,
is but fighting a shadow. The essence of rank lie;
in the deference paid it, end if you prohibit by sta-
tute that deference which men are willing to pay, the
dignity of peresestioa is added to that of right.
The most minder of all the modes proposed of
combating the power and esemachmsnt of the new
legate is, however, that of the nines. It threat's'
and reesuesseads so lees than for the English govern-
ment to pt up an theurrection in Italy net the

have this :year greatly extended the suffrage in

piers in barengb tows., the government opposed bin

comperneesin sobsees." When is this scheme
to be brought forward ? It will not bear being
delayed fur another year; for another year,
in all probability,: will bring us to a general
election. There are many hundred thousand competent
men in England, who are at present disqualified to
vote at that election. They demand of parliament to
qualify them. And they do not stand alone in the
demand. A large majority of those who are them-
selves voters at the present time believe, and justly
believe, that their own aseerity depecds upon
an enemies of the franchise. Look at the mon-
iker. Can it be doubted he a moment that the
sense of the great majority of the county voters is
favourable to the oszomiaa of the wffrage_ to
the ten posed Isonseboiden in counties P Why
who are the county voters! TIRANE FARMERS. Is
the tenant farmers' interest bound up in the existing
system ? The tweet forme understands well enough
that in that system be has no reel share or part. He
knows well enough that the existing county system is
exclusively a landlord system—that it is a system to
reality antagonistic to his interest. The tenant
farmers' interest lies in fair teen, equitable adjustment
of taxation, the abolition of monopolies, and the
security of ihe property which he Touts into the soil.
Is that the landlords' interest ? Ask him Pot the
question to the country squire, more than half of
whose estate is in the hands of mortgagees and Jews.
Pat the qoestion to the peer, whose main source
of income is not the lend which he inherits, but
the money which be draws out of the taxes.
Put the question to the county member whose sous
are disposed of, at the tax-payers' expense, in the
army, the navy, the church, or public clime. Ask
the landed proprietor " who never grants leases."
Will these noblemen and gentlemen reply that their
interest is in low rents, remision of taxation, the
abolition of monopolies, liberal covenants, and
tenant right P Honk things are their interests, they
certainly do not attest their sense of them by sending
their younger sone and relatives to parliament to op-
pose every popular privilege, and to vote for every
extravagance that can increase the public burdens.
We all tame pretty wail what is the state of things
in counties. We hue onl to take up the list
of members of the Howe of funs to see Use wet
of parliamentary crop which these districts produce.
We see a plentiful list of Lederman—a large pro-
portion of the younger scions of the aristocracy; bat
we see nothing of the tenant farmer—the real voter
for the county. Our large towns are represented
by men personally interested in their trade and
property—but the counties return members whore
interests are in opposition to the interests of the great
majority of voters. Why is this P Is it not because
the existing body of county voters are unsupported
by. a continency. amongst whom they themselves
might exercise an tallaence ? The tenant fanner, at
present, is at the lowest point of the scale in the
county franchise. kvery one who in above him in
wealth or in position has a vote, but no one else.
Every one exereises, or tries to exercise, authority
and coercion over the tenant, and the tenant is nu-
able to resist became be has no clam to support him
in resistance. Let the lOL householders in mantles
be enfranchised, and we would soon are the tenant
farmer at least claiming some share of therepresenta-
tion, and returning here and there a man of his own
clam to represent his own peculiar interests.
Search through the list of county members returned
to parliament in 1847, sad you will not find the
name of a deals man who was elected u a tenant
farmer, or as peculiarly representing the tenant farmer
elan. No, not asingle man.
