JOANNA SOUTHCOTT.

" Jo A NOt'S books," says Mr. Lane, " are a cabinet of
every thing that can augment the sum of infidelity, and
strengthen the cause of popery. Vulgar dreams, vulgar in-
terpretations, vulgar ,types and applications,--a complete
stem of spurious, squalid matter ; hardly to be touched
without contracting defilement, and sustaining,great injury•
iv fine, the whole of her works nre a confused string of words,
in the vilest doggerel verse, which have no other connection
than what the vilest thiales have suggested ; and what she
invents, her followers receive as the dictates of immediate
inspiratiou

Blush, Joanna ! fill'd with shame,
Doom thy Writings to the flame ;
Death will soon the chat 111 dispel,
Se,led Fieods of Hell

Conscious of the iniquitous nature of her pretensions,
and the pernicious tendency of her writings, Joanna has all
along been publicly hinting the certain approach of that
per.od when the arm of justice would be compelled lo pre-
vent the completion of her projects. She cr.') forsee that
there arc boon& beyond which she will not be suffered to
go. Apprehensive of some interposition of this kind, she
became much alarmed when she was informed that one of
the newspapers was about to collect such details as might lay
the foundation for proceedings against her ; and hence Th.
Reece: as called in, and all at once, to ascertain and publish
the reality of her pregnancy.
That the prophetess is somewhat in dread of the sentence
of the law, hauwing she has exposed herself to its tenors, may
be inferred from the manner in which she deprecates its lash.
Joanna has unequivocally betrayed her fears in the fdlow-
ing passage of her Third Book of Wonders. " As to pe!-
secution," she makes the Spirit there say, " I now tell thee.
if it were not fur the laws qfyour land, the persecution would
row be as great as it was by Oie Jews, when they put their
prophets to death, and when they clamoured for my (Chrst's)
blood ; and thit, thou knowest, has been the desire of many,
to see thee (Jeatina Southcott l) put to death, as 1 (Jesus
Christ!) was : and, therefore, it is the laws of your land that
inz:e made me defend this nation from the foreign enemy,
while mine anger and indignation are kindled to bear the
blasphemy throughout the land ; but now I will make the
Bible plain before them, and prove the truth of my gospel
by the Yi,crn I have set." Panegyric and menaces are min-
.
gied. bikt we are artfully praised for the indulgence %Vf'
have extended to her, the prophetess takes care to apprise
tom, at the same time. that it is solely on her account we hay..

escaped the enemy's long threatened invasion of our shoren
ciuti that, accordingly, the least departnre.from leuity towaid;
•r, " the great Prophetess and Servant of God," as Mary
alteman styles her, will certainly bring divit.e judginen

POPE PIVS'S BULL RE-EST %MASHING THE COMPANY

_ _ _ _ _
OF JESUITS.
ROME, AVG. 10.—On Sin day, the ?th inst. his Holiness went to
the Unwell of Jesus to celebrate high tna•s at the altar of St. Ignin.
lilts. Afte► having !ward another mass, his Holiness proceeded to
the neighbouring oratory of the congregation of nobles, where he
was placed on a throne prepared fur him. He then handed to a
Master of tin Ceremonies, and caused him to read Vk ith a loud voice,
the following which re-establishes the company ofJesnits :
PIUS, BISHOP, SERVANT OP THE SERVANTS OF GOD.

(Ad perpetuanz rel. memoriam.)

" The care of all the churches confided to our humility by the
Divine will, note ithstanding the lowness of our deserts and abiltti~ s,
stakes it cunt duty to employ all the aids in our power. and whic4
are furnished to us I. y the mercy of Divine Providence, iu older
that we mav be able, as far as the changes of times and places will
allow, to relieve the spiritual wants of the Catholic world, without
any distinction of people and nations.
" Wishing to fulfil this duty of onr Apostolic Ministry, as soon
as Francis Karen (then living) and other secular priests iesident
for many years • in the vast empire of Russia, and who had beeu
members of the company of Jesus suppressed by Clement X 1 V. cf

for the purpose of being able to apply themselves more in
conformity with their institution, to the instruction of youth in rem
ligion and good morals, to devote themselves to preaching, to con-
fession, and the administration of the other sacraments, we fel It
our duty the more willingly to comply with their prayer. Sensor:, it
as the then reigning Emperor Nat, had recommended the said
priests in his gracious dispatch, dated the It Hi of Angulo, 13.41,
in which, after setting forth his special regard for them, he dell,. rfi
to us that it would be agreeable to him to see the elini:)al.y ()fir-ins

NEGOCIATION‘: AT GHENT.

The most inviolable secrecy is prosecred by Govern-
ment respecting the real sta!o s)l* the negociations at Ghent
between the British and Ametican Plenipotentiaries. In
the absence of official information, rumours of the most
contradictory nature have long. prevai!ed. The Morning
Chronicle has favoured the Public with many tales on that
subject. At first the negotiations were entirely broken
off: a short time after, they were only suspended; and at
last, the language of the negotiators had been too warm,
and although they did not meet to carry on the important
discussions on which the fate of America depends, they as-
sembled to exchange apologies ! On the other hand it was
stated on more credible authority, that a: important point
haying been started which created some difficulties, twenty-
four hours bad been granted to the Commissioners of the
United Stales to give an answer : that their reply bad not
been decisive, and that they had been allowed to refer totheir
Government, for which purpose the John Adams had been
dipatched to America ; but that, meanwhile, the discus-
sion: continued on minor points. This account, which is
the most probable, is corroborated by the following ar-
ticle, dated Brussels, September 3, and brought by the
Ilamburgh Mail :
" Letters from Ghent say, that nnmerons couriers arrive daily at
(Mend to and from hmtl In, vessels bring at all times ready at Os-
tend for them. It is Pbserved, that the ncgoeiatinns at Ghent are
not so active, and that the Miniqers win probobly ronain Ilwre
1' ger than teas at first supposed On the Ist, the Niue t Iran Ilinisiers
I gave a grand entertainment, at which the Magistrates and also the
English Ministers were present."

An article from Ghent, but of an earlier date, alludes
to some misunclerEtanding; between the Plenipotentiaries,
which, however, had not led to an interruption of the
conforenccs

" Gu ENT, SEPT. 1. It seems that .for some days pact there is

ORANGEISM he,e do the Or3ngemen exist," says
The rouri, r, "but where Rdrhonmen eNist." This sophism
is the last shift in the wav of a:-gument, to which tl‘e advocates
of Orangeism can have recoui se. Now we answer, that
Orangemen exist in Dublin and in most parts of Leinster,
who, e there ale no Ribbonmen. We farther state in reply,
tha: they had ex is.c.ci in all parts of Ireland for 15 or 16
Years before the name of Hibbonman was known of. The
Ribbontneu of the North associated for the purpose of repel-
ling the s sternatic and long continued alzgressions of Orange-
men.—They are not the cattre iif Oiangeism but its effect,
To say that thangeism should exist because Ribbonmen
exist, is to maintain the monstrous proposition that a man
can draw a justification from his own crimes. Ile may pro-
ceed in outrage until he provokes opposition ; and as soon as
that evil is generated, he may seize upon it as a palliation
for the original transLuessiou. This at least is the doctrine
which 7 he rouritr holds, and there never was a murder com-
mitted which might not he excused by it. But it is at all
events pleasant to extort from The Courier a confession, that
political societies are not to he advocated it they be not indis-
pensibly necessary.—(Freeman's Journd.)

" NORW EGIANS,—When upon the di4solutinn of your union with

make every personal saclike, in order to secure to you those

is It is true we were aware of the dangers which threatened
your hopes an ours in such an unequal contest ; but we could not
possibly conceive that the most poweifid states of Europe would
combine, to oppress a noble and innocent people, whose reasonable
was liherty, and whose only desire was independence.
46 Meanwhile. Swedeil'. powerful Allies informed us by their En-
voys, that the union of Norway with Sweden was irrevocably deter-
mined on. It is known to you that wu were willing to sacrifice our
r,ot►al happy situation, if the great assembly of the nation should
find it conducive to the happiness of the nation; but you likewise
know, that the conditions upon which an armistice was at that
time ()tiered, were such that we could not accede to them till the
firtune of war had been tried, because they were contrary to the
fniollon ntal laws.
e. We saw wit!► regret that our sincere endeavours to avoid a war
in the North were fruitless.

The extensive frontiers and sea coasts of Norway made it
veressary to divide the troops. Sweden made great exertions to
arts! at different points, sod in the uncertaittty on what part of the
kie-dom the attack might be expected, from which he could cover
the interior provinces of the kingdom, and at the same time hasten
to the assistance of such points as were threatened or attacked. In
all these respects Glommen seemed to present the most advantages.
" On being informed of the enemy's invasion by Ide-Slettin and
Swinesune, we hastened to collect a corps at Rakestadt, in order, by
as attack from that side, to stop the farther progress of the tnentv ;
but the unexpected surrender of Frederiekstadt obliged ns to take a
position on the Glomnicn, the enemy having obtained a secure
passttge so that the road to Christiania might be forced.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUIR, stated that no political
questions of great impo►taace could with propriety be introduced

a wish that our plenipotentiaries at Chatillon should be instructed iry
the Prince Regent to include in any terms of peace to which tl►ey

tical offences committed previ-us 19:a general peace. He moved
an Address to the Prince Regent lottthis purpose.
Mr. VAN'.ITTART objected to thisi.motion being brought for% ard
without notice, and moved the previous question, which was
carried.
Mr. PONSONBY gave notice, that it was Lord Morpeth's intern.
tion to make a motion after the Easter hOlida3s relative to tl►e
speech delivered by the Speaker. on the'close of last Session, at the
bar of the House of Lords.—Adjourned.

, the earliest opportunity of addressing himself to the House upon
the subject of reports haVing been propagated in the public jour.
nals relative to a late imposition practised upon the buyers of stock,
and that the reports had gone so far as to cast such an c►linm on his
I character, as demanded his solemn declaration to that I limonrable
House, that he never was, directly or indirectly, connected or con-
; cerned.
The CHANCELLOR of the Excit mint gave notice of a motion of

to the victims of unprincipled combination.

has entailed ruin !you so many hundreds
of industrious isdivi(!onts
a perusal of this work will not fail to attract the attention of the

DEFEAT OF THE I:IIENCH BY BLUCHER—FRENCIi:
PAPERS To THE 230 INSTANT.
We received last night intelligence from Holland, which
can be depended upon. Marshal Blucher drove the enemy
over the-Aisne, on the lath; Bulow, on the 10th, march-'
ed upon Soissons ; and, on the same day, Winzingerocle
proceeded towards Rheims. Blucher had, on the 20th, in-
tercepted a letter addressed to Buonapaite, giving him an
account'of the entrance of the English army into Bordeaux,
and of the general rising of the people iu favour of the
Bourbons.
This is in great measure confirmed by the French Papers
received last night; and those received in the course of the
week indirectly corfirin that intelligence. For the bulletin.
which conveys the account •of military operations down
to the 20th in the morning. ind details the various move-
ments of the different corps of the Allies, is totally silent in
respect to Blucher. Instead of that, it details stations ope-
rations of Buonaparte against the Austrians, who, it seemed,
advanced across the Seine in proportion as Bnanaparte had
been drawn towards the north by Blucher. Even over
them Buonapai to does not seem to have obtained anylle-
cisive success, for he boasts only of the taking a an-egni.
page of pontoons, and says that the enemy retreated agalti•
beyond the Seine, and evacuated Troyes. So we dare to
say they did, for, as we have observed from the beginning,
the Allies, faithful to the plan they have so successfully fol.
lowed before Dresden, so concert their operations, that nne
of their armies invariably retreat in propottion as the other
advances, Schwartzenberg in consequence, again advanced to.
the Seine, while Buonaparte was compelled to follow Blucher
towards I aon. But no sooner had he been forced, after
repeated defeats, to desist from further attacks on the ve-
teran, than Buonaparte, alarmed by Schwartzenberg's move-
ment to the South, thought it time to make bead in that
quarter, with what success we have already seen. It was
now Blucher's turn to advance again ; and, if we are nct
much mistaken, he has actually cut the communication of
Buonaparte with the capital on the Noah side. For the
papers to the 22d, received before the last bulletin, owned
that Blucher was in possessiou of Noyon, and that 'Com-
piegne bad been twice attacked ; which, in the style of those
papesrs, means taken, for the day previous to the eatry of
our troops• into Bordeaux, they- mentioned the passage of
[troops through that town to reinforce General Sou.t.
