LONDON, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 25.

Tessin are three religions in England. There is
that of the protestant., that of the catholic, and that
of the mummers. Of the national faith it is not our
purpose to speak, neither are we concerned just now
with the stliainctive dogmas or practices of Rome.
Oar business is with those dissemblers who have
already wrought so much of mischief in the land ; and
who at this moment are busy with new schemes of
double-dealing and deception.
A mummer is defined by our standard etologists
to be one who in a mask and personated dross per-
forms solemn akeurdities and the grave follies
thus enacted are called " mummeries." Realities,
whether of temporal or spiritual import, can
never be classed with these. Gorgeous ceremonies,
allegoric pomp, and all the various farms in which
national feelings, social ideas, or religious beliefs seek
foe expreseion,—all these are genuine, fall of mean-
ing, instinct with the actual spirit of the time. It is
their counterfeit that is the cheat; the parade of
their costumes, and mimicry of their utterances, that
alone deserve the name of " mummeries." So long
as the people of England believed in the mystic rites
sad awful sanctions of catholicity, the pageantry of
catholic worship was a reality, and no sham. We
have long since learned to disbelieve in its exclusive
and mysterious way of salvation. Our fathers, just
three centuries ego, protested against the authority
of Rome, and disavowed their belief in all those
doctrines that rested on that authority. What they
retained was comparatively simple, and needed net
the illustration of emblazoned forms. Therefore they
discarded, and we continue to disuse them. They
seem to us the outward symbols of grave errors; bat
to long u the errors are sincerely cherished by any
Diction of the community, we may regret, bat we do
set treat with levity,thess °harem ces.
The case is very different when, without the faith in
Rome,her offices are parodied, her vestments borrowed,
and the very tone cf her voice mimicked by men who
have the pay of protestantism in their pockets. We
war not with opinion in matters of religion, but we war
with fraud ; we object to " mummeriee," to the histrionic
»presentation in the house of God, of that which
neither the actors nor the audience profess to believe.
It was this which Lord Joao liesszu. obviously in-
tended to rebuke in the latter 'part of his celebrated
letter to the Bishop of Delman; and which be
oharacterired by a phrase the most English and the
moat expressive that he could have chosen for that
purpose. It was the masoning and mskebelieve
imita.iuss of the Catholic ritual that the Premier
meant to brand as " mummeries."
And this palpable distinction has been so uni-
versally appreciated, that the whole of the
controversy between Cardinal Wiseman and his
opponents has been conducted without reference to
a subject in which the adherents of the Pore feel
that thee have no concern. No English catholic,with
the single exception of that e nsible gentleman, Mr.
PUILIP HOWARD, M.P. for Carlisle, has taken the
cootumelioas epithet as applicable to the rites and
ceremonies of Rome. Even oar salsifies neighbours
on the western side of the Channel, though little in
love with the whir fur theiranti-papal policy, do not
seem to have even suspected Lord Join of intending
to ridicule their mode of worship. They have their
own causes of complaint, but this is not one of
them. The Celts are either catholic or prate stants,
but there is hardly a Puseyite to be found 'amongst
them. Puseyiern is looks d upon by both creeds there
as a mere time-serving evasion—a barren hybrid—ft
shuffling, shabby, sophistical effnt at compromise,
wherein no earnest spirit can find lasting peace.

AMw Isigt is now oe foot. Trueio.theouolv

the Fuseyite; have agreed to play • double part.
Their bishop' are ready to with the tide of prates- i
teat feeling; while their po,itisians affect sympathy '
with their catholic brethren. Their places and per- I
puede' are to be kept by puffing out the candles, and '
walking with unbent knees up the aisle ; while party
neruits for electioi purposes are to be enlisted by loud
and vehement denunciations of the anti-catholic
whip. The most impudent part of the hoax epeeists
in affecting to think that "mummeries" in the PRIME
lilt :ilea ER 8 letter was aimed at the cathulice—not at
them. Their solitary organ has bee,' perseveringly
giving forth this as the trite interprration of the
notable phrase. It is hoped thereby to attain •
double end,—to divert indignation from their own
springs and antics, until the national wrath shall have
died away, and to catch adherents ammiget those who
ars offended at the reistanco shorn to the nomina-
tion of bishops in England by a foreign prince. For
rueryism has from tfe outset been quits as
mach of • politic el u a religious movement.
Its leaders in parliament art the foremost allies
and advocates of absdutiEr. The only apolo.
girts of IIAYNAU were found among their ranks ;
and even the desperate cause of 31ONTEMOLIN
find, in them defenders. We speak not of the tory
party generally, mane of whim, to do them justice,
abhor and are not ashamed to f :press their detesta-
tion of continental despot;em : and whose hearty seal
for the QUEEN'S supremacy rests on no bale adulation
of royalty, but in truly protestant conviction that
it is better that the church should be ruled over by
the chief of the laity than by the cSief of the clergy.
The men of " mummeries " in the church are men of
sliding scales and slim), ry oplailos in the senate. The
poet's spirit must have prophetically seen as from
afar what now is passing daily before our eyes, when
he aclaimed—
Behold the Isle, by palm•rs, prltricla trod,
:1 u bearded, ball, eo ei J, or seri, unshod;
l'd, petelt'd, and pis: ald, ace,y woolsey brothers,
Insunnsers !

'lie certain that the ant:ior of the " Danciad" did
aot mean to ridicule mil itlmanists. Who, then,
could he have intended if not the trimmers of oar I
time, whose ambition is t 3 lead by dint of peculiar
dexterity, and whose fats is to ruin b their faithlese-
sees and folly all who put their trust in them, in
church ar state!
Tar day is put when any set of men, or clique, or
see, can win their way to power in th,s country by a
dub: L.-faced policy. All the chica-m of learned
equivore and all the prufur.di'y of esoteric meaning
is nothieg worth, compared with the faculty of la:-
pressilig men with the conviction of straightforward-
ness, e,ursge, and isicerity.

it is the fashion at the present epAch to brit;
eminent persocages upon the stage, and to CM-
pe: them to address the public for advice, for
sympathy, and for support on qoestions which
nose:nets and vutifis were wont to reserve for pri-
vate consideration and decision. It has been remarked
with pleasure how ever, Itarnaaista appeal to a Pro-
testant public. A message of American lougita4
from the Po ardent of a French republic, and It
eonatitutional speech in which a Prussao monarch
ling. himself upon his parli.ment, are events which
art how mach the middle of the nineteenth oentury
stands in moral and political advance of its con-
lassesment.

However them facts anemone th progress of the
senetituttonal principle, e•iil it iv painful at the pre-
sent day to contrast the language of absolutism die-
toting to other nation', with the term' in which eon-

scarcely diminished freedom of &constitutional pesse4
The King of PRUSSIA has just given an assiple
this. Beset by a conjuncture of the most healable!
difficulties and embarruements that ever betel a king,:
and apparently hesitating for some time pest,
how best they might be met, the monarch has talus:
the wise resolution of flinging himself apes his par-
liament and country. His solemn appeal to them we
this day publish, and it will indeed be ever moment-.
Me in the history of Prussia.
The speech is certainly not all that liberals might
wish ; but still it is more bold than might be ex-,
petted from M. MANTRUPTEL. It is, first of all, ratio-'
factory in all that regards the domestic constitution.
of Prussia, which the KING reseserts his determined.*
to pemeers„ and it_promises slaw of the prose, suck
se isey he alcumW and voted by the Chamber, in
Bea et the present somewhat arbitrary Orison
The Ma of forming the rates of Germany into a
noun finned on constitutional principles the monarch
&elms that he has not abandoned, bat only defers
its development till after the settlement ell
the prinoiples on which the whole German fede-
ration is to be hued. Enough is said in the BING'S
speech to make it appear that Prussia will not con-
sent to the re-establiehment of that old federation,
which laid the internal administration, and coostite-
tion, and liberties of each state at the mercy of a
diet of princes.
The great defect of the speech, however, is its want
of clearness and frankness on this point. The Pres-
sian monarch might have declared himself for the
maintenance of constitutional government, not o.
in his own dominions, but in other Gamma. stateel
saying this his MAJESTY might have taken his stead
on the treaty of Vienna, and thus assumed the true
liberal ground for the policy which he has perused
both with respect to Holstein and to Hesse. In-
stead of this the royal speech avoids the seastita-
tional question altotether. It passes the rights
of Holstein sub &antic,' and supports the Premien
intervention in Hesse solely on strategic
ds
The resistance, in fact, to the northward marchh
armies of Austria and the Diet was, however boldly
put, utterly unexplained in principle. So that what-
ever Prussians may feel, it is utterly impossible for
a foreigner to understand perfectly what Prussia has
armed for, and what there is in Austria demands, that
has proved so intolerable.
This, indeed, may be hyper-criticism, the objectives
of one far from the scene o events and their actuality.
And they have lees weight, certainly, from the fast el
the Kteo's speech having been euthusiuticalLiiire-
ceived. The parliament and the people of
seem to think that all is comprised in the military
attitude of defiance to Austria, and in the detonated
words in which the royal speech announced this. A
serious comment on the speech is the fare, that Bruns- 1
wick has formally refused passage to the march of the
troops of the Frankfort Diet. A glance at the map
will show that the duchy of Brunswick stretches from
the Hair to Helzminden, cutting Hanover completely
in two, and that there is no passage from the sontheri
to the northern portion but through &umiak.
Prussia supports Brunswick in its refusal, and de-
clares herself bound to give this support, so that the
march of the federal contingent to Holstein must be,
if persevered in—war.
The rumour, however, at Berlin was, that the an-
swer of the CZAR from St. Petersburg did not support
Austria in the aggressive and violent tone hitherto
adopted by SCIIWARZENBERO, and which, if followed
up, could be only dictated by n determination to
bumble and reduce Prussia to the rank and attitude of
a second-rate power, reckless whether this was done
by a victory or a triumphant treaty.
Should the tidings of Russia's pacific decision, and
of Austria's sheerly submitting to it, be true, all the
questions in dispute will no doubt be referred to the
Free Conference, in which, it is to be hoped, the consti-
tutional principles will find firm defenders, and where,
it is to be hoped, neither Hessian nor Holeteiner will
be sacrificed for having rood out for their rights and
invoked their old constitution.
Foe this, howe:er, we have a guarantee in the spirit
of the North German people, now roused to a height
which no minister durst trifle with, and which the
united despotisms of Austria and of Russia durst not
provoke.

As might have been expected, in consequence of
the violent wind which prevailed during I,st night
and this morning, neither the French nor Ostend
mails have arrived.

of the passages.
" Gentlemen, Deputies of the First and Second
Chambers :
" At this important time I see you with confidence
once more assembled round my throne, and welcome

you from my heart.
" Since the termination of your last session, my
government has been zealously active in giving life to
the organic laws agreed upon with you. In all parts
of the country the introduction of the cominanal law
has been commenced; and the equal progress of the
new arrangements in the different puts of the mo-
narchy has alone been prevented by the oonsideretiou
of the manifold relations of the existing law.
" Although the preliminary surveys necessary to
the application of the laud-tax, in amordanoe with the
law of the 24th of February of the present year, have
not been entirely concluded, my government will take
care to obtain the results of the operation as soon as

possible.
"The extensive railway weeks which my govern-
ment was empowered with your consent to execute,
have been undertaken with energy and mimeos. The
other public works have also progressed in a sstief se-
tory manner, and have assisted materially to improve
the condition of the classes occupied thereon.
"In consequence of the gradually growing confi-
dence, trade and industry have increased in the course
of the year, and some branches have reioiced in a
great impulse. Increasing activity of enterprise has
been perceived in the navigation and shipping of the

ow:airy.
" The improvements introduced in the post-office
with which has been joined an extensive postal union-
treaty with other German states, asd negotiations
with foreign governments for the purpose of still fur-
ther facilitating mutual oommunication, already
evince a most beneficial influence. We had already
begun to rejoice in returning security, when an
attempt on the life of ourself opened to us a glance
into the morel abyss on which we still remain. I
speak not of my life—it is in the hands of the
Almighty—the dangerfrom which I was miraculously
saved procured me the satisfaction of receiving innu-
merable proofs of attachment and devotion from all'
parte of the country ; I speak of the deep °enfant ei
ideas which appeal to regicide; of the contempt fee
divine and human laws which was to be remarked
on this melancholy occasion..
" The revolutionary press bears no small portion of
the guilt, and as it has been impossible to discuss is
the last session of the chamber the provisional rts
lotions of the press of the 30th of June, 1849, whine
were generally acknowledged to be insufficient, my
government deemed it to be their duty to issue a fur-
ther preliminary press decree, founded on paragraph
63 of the constitution. But this ordinance was in-
tended merely as a passing measure for putting an
end to notorious evils. At the name time with it the
draft of a comprehensive and permanent prom law
will therefore be laid before you. In considering the
same you will endeavour with my government to
harmonise the demands of reasonable liberty with the
provisions necessary to the safety of the state and
society.
" The preparations for carrying out the provisions
contained in the constitution on the relation d the
church to the state, are in uninterrupted program, HA
my government will carefully endeavour to complete
the difficult task imposed upon them as soon as pomd-
ble, and with a proper consideration far all just
interests.
" The draft of the law on education is nearly ready,
and the extent of the preliminary labours aloes res.
den it impossible to lay it before you at the opening
of the chambers.
" A draft of a law for the regulation of the medical
profession will shortly be laid before you.
" The long prepared draft of a penal code also
awaits your consideration.
"Tee union of the Hohenzollern principalities with
the monarchy renders the publication of an electoral
kw for them necessary. I recommend to you to
hasten the consideration of the draft of this law, for
you will wish with me shortly to see among you the
representatives of these provinces.
" Gentlemen deputies, you will perceive, from the
budget of 1851, that not only has a general increase
in the revenues of the state taken place, but that
every possible reduc'ion of the expenditure has been
attended to. It is, notwithstanding, impossible, with
the ordinary revenue, to cover the necessities of the
state, increased as they are by the retroaction of the
convulsions of the year 1848. An extraordinary
strain upon the taxative pines of the country is
therefore inevitable. I recommend to your most
careful consideration the examination of the propomis
of my government on this point.
" Full accounts will be laid before you of the em-
ployment of the credit of eighteen million thalers for
military purposes.
" The dangers which induced you to grant that
credit have not ye: been removed. My peaceful rela-
tion, with the great powers of Europe are, certainly,
not interrupted; but, unhappily, it has been impos-
sible to fulfil my intention of procuring for the states
of Germany a constitution suitable to their necessities.
Full of hope for the future, I shall hold fast the
idea on which my endeavours have until now been
founded, bat shall not resume its accomplishment
upon new foundations until the future formation of the
whole German confederation has been decided.
" I hope that the negotiations in reference to it will
speedily lead to a successful termination.
"The peace with Denmark has been concluded and
ratified ; bat it has not yet been possible to execute
all its points.
" In a neighbouring German country discord of the
most repulsive kind has broken out. An attempt
made by a certain party to interfere in the nine,
threatened to injure the rights of Prussia, and has led
to misunderstandings in which we have been directly
involved. Our objections based upon the require-
ments dour geographical and military situation have
until now not met with due ooasideration from the
sovereign of that country and his allies. Moreover,
ammentrations of troops have taken place in places far
tom the theatre of those complications, and in the
a ighboorhood of our frontiers, thereby threatening
She safety of the monarchy. I could then no Wept
delay what has long been objected to. I summoned
the full war powers of the coustry to the field, and see
with pride and joy that those of my people capable of
bearing arms are rising everywhere like one man, and
Wein my army—whose courage and fidelity has
Men proved.
" la the shortest possible time we shall be more
strongly armed than ever before, either in ancient cr
modern times. We seek not war, we wish not to
lam the rights of anyone, nor to force our proposals
era tease, but we demand an arrangement of the
Fatherland suitable to sue present position in
e Europeiier and Germany and corresponding with the
amount of rights which God has placed in our hands.
We have a good old right; we will defend it and
remain under arms until we have secured its recogni-
tion. • •
" We owe this to Prussia—we owe this to Germany.
"I hope that our uprising will suffice to secure our
right ; it will soils dangerous to the pesos of Europe
when that right has been obtained, for my people are
as reasonable ea they an powerfnl.

Asd as aU party spirit 0.• been merged be the
**theism of the moment—a/ 'the people' sat the
army feel themselves salted with me and mob
otner—you too, the representatives of this admirable
pedple, will stand by me, manimous and firm, in the
dasgere of the
a Well; thiltelent our wateheroedil be, union in
fidelity, middens» with„Ood in one spirit—in the real
old Prussian spirit.
*God has often and largely helped us with it, end
Will kelp us still further."
*Seek is mei trust."

per bowie Illat is its appointed room, and con-
stituted itself. M. Fonk, as senior, took the
chair. A propoial to re-enact the standing
orders of the last swim war adjourned, and

The. various stories that have been current respect-
ing the mission of Herr van Radowits to England
seem to have been erroneous. Herr you Radowitz
has returned to Berlin and is now here. The letter
addressed to him by the King after accepting his a-
nimation of the office of foreign affairs has found its
way into the pepers, through an indiscretion, as it is
termed, of the enemies of the late minister. You no
doubt have seen it.
The Striate Anzeiger publishes the replies of all
the union governments to the Prussian proposition
relating to the future form of the Union made in the
College of MIMS Oct. Bth.
The first reply is made in common by the govern-
ments of Saxe Weimar, Saxe Coburg, Saxe Alten-
burg, the two Anhalts, the two Schwarzenbarge, and
the two Ramses. It declares the readiness of those
ants to accept the proposed new form of the
revi7onals: condition that the obligations arising out of
the fourth and fifth articles of the treaty shall remain
valid, and that the oorsent of all the governments
shall be necessary for future modifications of
the Union. The Oldenburg government makes
el manly similar declaration on its own ac-
sent. The Oldenburg government approval of
the proposed
union shall be retained, and that the King
of Prussia will still strive to bring about • closer
sonnexion between the governments now united. The
Lippe government accept the proposed change on the
condition that the constitution made at Erfurt, and
ossepted by the Primes College, be not abandoned,
bee ally postponed. The declarations of Waldeck
and Saxe-Mesausgen agree with that of Lippe. The
Nassau government declares that it entered the Union
as into an organisation capable of receiving all Ger-
many, and considers itself pledged to remain in it
only so far as the original aim of the Union is kept.in
view; it therefore reserves its consent to all measures
relating to chivies in the constitution.' It has directed
its plenipotentiary in the College of Princes to urge
before all things the continuance of negotiations with
Austria for the avoidance of a conflict, and advises
that the oonstitntion of the Union be postponed until
something shall have been determined by the two
governments. The fres cities of Lubeck, Bremen,
and Hamburg, reserve their decimations.
