" 34. Neither Magistrates nor Governors, nor any
other dignitaries of the empire, shall in their tours seek
out dwelling places belonging to the Archbishop in order
to be lodged therein or to quarter troops.
" 35. Neither Emirs, nor Princes, nor Pachas, nor
Provincial Inspectors, nor Commandants, nor Governors,
nor Village Magistrates, nor any officers whatever, shall
prevent the Archbishop from wearing his robe of cere-
mony, and from holding a cross as insignia of his autho-
rity. On their pact, no violence, no obstruction, no
opposition shall be made on this account.
" 36. In virtue of the present letter patent, the said
Archbishop shall enjoy, with respect to his property,
and the exercise of his authority, the right he pos-
sesses of binding- and unbinding with full and entire
liberty. No person shall present any obstacle to the
exercise of this right in any manner, or upon any account
whatever.

" We have therefore issued the present letter patent in
pursuance of our first firman, and have orderedas follows :
" 1. The Archbishop Alaximos Mazloum, the bearer
of this letter patent, shall, as delegate of the Patriarch
of Constantinople, be free to govern all Catholics within
the jurisdiction of the patriarchial dioceses of Antioch,
Alexandria, and Jerusalem the Noble.

" 2. The steady and faithful sect of Christians called
Catholics who dwell in the said patriarchals, and who
are under the jurisdiction of the Patriarch of Constan-
tinople, will, priests of all degrees, monks and nuns and
all of them, recognize the Archbishop Mazimos Mazloum
as their spiritual chief, and as invested by his superior
with the power of governing them ; they will be subject
to his tribunal, and must submit to his decisions in
matters which come within his spiritual authority ;—they
must all obey him._

"3. The' Archbishop will be at liberty to read the
Gospels, and to exercise his ministry either in his own
residence or in the houses of others.
"4. The Catholics shall be free in the practise of their
worship. No one will be entitled to say to them,' why
do you perform the ceremonies of your religion in your
houses ? Why do you read your Scriptures there, and
suspend lustres, and have pictures and pulpits, and pic-
tures, and veils? Why do you burn incense and exhibit
crosses?'

"5. Governors of towns, Commandants and Magistrates,
will take care not to interrupt the Catholics in the exercise
of their religion ; they mast not seek pretexts for haras-
sing them with the view of extorting them ; and no
restraint must be imposed on them, except in the
case of their transgressing some of the noble pro-
visions of the Mussulman law. Permission, however,
is not given to Catholics to perform their worship in an
open situation, or to make any public display of their
false religion.

" 6. No Magistrate or Officer of the Government shall
imerpose any obstacle to the Catholics in the free ad-
ministration of their churches and convents ; nor demand
from them the production of their titles to these edifices
or any other documents of that nature, but shall allow
them to possess and administer their churches and con-
vents as they may think fit.

" 7. The priests cannot, without the express per-
mission of the Archbishop, celebrate marriages which
are prohibited by the Christian religion.
8. Whereas, during the life of a wife, separation
from her and union with another is regarded by all Ca-
tholics as illicit, no authority to the contrary shall be
conceded to them. If in this respect any contraven-
tion of the law shall occur on their part, the offenders
shall be punished as they deserve.
‘• 9. If a Catholic wishes to marry a woman belong-
ing to another sect, the priests shall refuse to perform
the ceremony, and no person in authority can compel
them to sanction such a marriage.
" 10. If a dispute arise between Catholics, whether
respecting a marriage, or a separation, or any other
cause, the ssme shall come under the consideration of
the Archbishop, or of the person whom the Archbishop
may have appointed to examine into the affair, and the

" 37. All our subjects, high and low, are required to
conform themselves to the provisions of the present
letter patent, and respectfully to obey our sublime
orders.

the month of Sliaban, in the year 12.53 (1837) of the
Hegira."

The perpetrators of this crime are at length disco-
vered. A boy passing through the nursery gardens of
Mr. Laffan, in Blackpool, on Sunday morning, hap-
pened to pull straws from a thatched watch-house, when
he discovered a bayonet secreted in, the roofing. He
immediately told it to the gardener, who sent it to the ,
Bridewell, where it was recognized as that which was
taken from Sub-Constable Hartord on the night of thee
homicide. This led to the supposition that the mur-
derers resided in the vicinity of the garden, and Chief
Constable Gunn, with a party of Constabulary searched
the neighbourhood on Saturday night, and arrested,
on suspicion, four men of noted bad characters.
Their names are John Corkery, Fair-hill ; Bar-
tholomew Corkery, Water-lane ; William Hart-
nett, John-street ; Michael Coghlan, Water-lane.
Particularly on Hartnett suspicion rested, and
Sub-Constable Harford, though he would not take
upon himself to swear positively to him as being one
of the highwaymen, asserted that he had little doubt on
his mind of the tact. On. Sunday morning constable
Gillard, with Mr. Laffan's gardener, renewed the search
in the nursery, and having removed the upper thatch
of the watch-house, as it had an old and new roofing,
found between.the new and old straw constable Lawlor's
carabine, Mr. Trenwith's coat, and a firearm about
three feet long, the barrel of which was evidently that
of a military musket cut short and laid in a small
stock. A man of the name of Patrick Roche has con-
fessed, and stated that he, armed with a

We have recently perused a little volume, enti-
tled, " The German Self Teacher, by Henry Meidin-
.ger," published by Whittaker and Co. As an intro-
duction to the study of the German language this book
is, for all persons acquainted with the English lan-
guage, the simplest and most useful guide that we have
ever met. It. purposes to attain its objects by commen-
cng with lists of all the words of similar sound and
meaning which are to he found in both languages ;
and, as these words are extremely numerous, including
the greater part of the modern English, the consequence
is, that the student finds himself unexpectedly talking
very correct German at the very instant when he is only '
commencing the study of the language.—Times.
