We havume most of us read how GRZGOZY the GREAT,
in the sixth century, was struck by the eight of
some English slaves in the market plus at Rome—
how he indulged thereupon in moms very indifferent
punning—how he took oars (unlike the punsters of
modern times) that his good intentions should not eva-
porate in wit, bat sent priest AUGUSTIN" to coeval
the whole nation from the error of its ways. Those
who have read farther know that Attousrom and
his monks entered the kingdom singing lita-
nies, and proceeded diligently to work. Au-
Gomm bimelf we. made a bishop, after-
wards archbishop, and invested with plimaq
authority over the twelve bishoprics into which
the kingdom wu divided by the orders of the POPS.
The native bishops were delivered over into the new
archbishop's hands, that " the unlearned might be
taught, the weak strengthened by perseesioe, and the
pm verse operated by authority. As, however, the
laid bishops refused either to be taught ce strength-
seed by the new missionaries, AUGUSTIN' piously
cut all connexion with them and delivered them over
to the secular power. They and their adherents were
all massacred. 'This completed the troublesome portico
of the enterprise, sacred vessels, vestment, relics,and
books were seat in profusion frees Rome, and Eng-
land became incorporated into the Papal unity.
Now, mark the hots of the paraliel case. In the
slaeteenth century Pros the NINTH is made sis
quintal with the notorious imperfections of the
satith church establishment. He meets with—not a
batik of young English slaves—bat a staid English
sublease whose cams be pities, and while pretending
to listen to a diseserse on polities, makes up his mint

mist that we are obstinate schismatics in the eyes of
the rulers at the Vatican, and there is little to ma-
de, at in the fact of an attempt being made to bring
us back to the proper fold. The cause for weeder is,
that an attempt in the eyes of the majority of pos-
tulants appirontly so hopeless should bo made with
such °per Lev, accompanied with tones of such jubi-
lant insult. In a word, the important question is, as
was stated in the Erpreu of Thereby, what are
the circumstances which have produced all
this fever of expectation, this fervour of hope
manage the adherents of the papacy? How is it
that papal mirsiouries gladly undertake now what
in times past tb.y chose to suffer exconmanakation
rather than undertake ? As acm in point we meta-
don that of PETIR WALSH, a Franciscan friar, who
in 1684 published his these Voissiana—a report of
the circumstances connected with his excommunime
lion, for refusing to resent from the substance of a dm
elevation he had made to the effect that "subjects'
owed such en allegiance to their king as could upon
no pretence whatever be dispensed with." How is it
that Cardimtl WISEMAN and his associate bishops
enunciate principles so different, for instance, from
those preformed by Roman catholic' in the reign of
Ce %SIAS 11., who even received a document signed
by a bishop and twenty other regulars and seculars of
