PASTORAL LETTER OF THE POPE.

There is in the Etoi/c a very curious document, the`" Ener,.
Letter" of the present Pope Leo XII. "to his venerable brethm
Patriarchs, Primates. Archbishops, and Bishops." A sort ie
pastoral charge, which each new Pope delivers to the ltidwp, „s
all the Catholic t hutch' on his elevation, and which, in the il,„
sent irstance, has been long delayed by the Moak of his Ueda:,,.,
The moat rentarkable part of this document is an adaite,i., ,
against " A sect, which, arrogating to itself the false name 01l
philosophy, has re-animated from their ashes the dispm,ll
phalanxes of almost all errors." " This sect," continues the Poyej
" covered externally with the flattering appearances of piety a:4'
liberty, professes /arras/Ism (so they call it), or imfiferearins,
and extends it not only to evil affairs, of which we do r.,.„.
speak, but even to those of religion, teach* that God h 4
given men an entire liberty ; so that every ore may, with
danger to his salvation, embrace: or adopt the sect or spin,
which pleases him according hi hit private yudgillent. •••• 1:
true this error is not new. but in our days it la kt loose with most
audacity against the stability and purity of the Catholic faith ; i I.
Eusebiu., relates step Ithodon, that this mad ides was propagated
by a certain Apelles heretic of the second century, who maintain,'
that it was not necessary estirek to search out lepprofo”dir ) en,

A Paris correspondent says—" I)on Miguel has visi,ed
most of the public establishments in Paris. Daring the
late processions of the Erie Diem, for a liflle bay he male
a great figure. It is said at Paris, tbc his permission to
travel in Europe for a c 'rtuist lime, is understood to be fir
the life-time of his father at least. His person is small, ha
features ordinary, and without any expression of intent-
genre. It is singular, that in our days a Princeoftbe
blood-royal, and presumptive heir to a European thtronr,
should be ielnorant of the French language.
Adviccs have been received from Trinidad to the 2Fal of
May. The Governor, Sir R. Woodford, had refused to re.
ceive the deputation to present the petition of the " person,
styling themselves the free inhabitants of the alone;
praying him to stay the promulgation of the Ortleis
Council. The meeting had, he said, been convened with.
out his sanction, and conseqtrontly he could not re-,ire
the petition in any other manner than through his t:t- er, tan.
The Governor, on the petition being brought before H..,
through the medium of his Secretary, declared tbst
' could not comply with the request of the colot.iFts,
that the Order in Council must 'be carried into elkct.

She brings advices from Pernambuco up to the e 6/:t or
May: the port remained blockaded at that period. A
ltriailian ship of war had arrives! on the 201 h, haring
from Rio Janeiro on the 12th. It appears that the new
Governor appointed by the Emperor for Pernantbno

consequatm dune not att. Carvallo, the reigning G.ieer;:-,
had intimated his desire to vacate his office previded
people requested it ; but this was considered finesse. The
Captain of a Liverpool vessel lauded at Pernambuco en the
night of the With of May, and he states that Capt. Tayitir.
the Commander of the blockading squadron, had infogNil
the various vessels lying off Pernambuco, that they hal
better remain there for a few days, as he was of opini
the blockade would soon be broken up. From this it no
inferitd that there was an understanding betttom Carvia4
and the Commander. An armament which had beau
