LONDON,
THURSDAY EVENING, MAY 5, 1825.

The French Papers of Monday arrived last
night. We have given extracts in another column.

A valuable Correspondent has favoured us with
the following remarks, which appear to us so
strong and convinciug, that we give them a place
with pleasure in our columns. Ile calls them

A FEW REASONS WHY THE DEMANDS OF THE
PAPISTS SHOULD NOT BE CONCEDED.

I. Because it is contrary to the safety and
well-being of any Constitution that persons
should be suffered to administer it who will not
swear to recognize all its authorities without any
reservation ; and because the spiritual authority
of the Church of Rome is more binding upon its
Members IN ALT. MATTERS than any temporal au_
thority Whatever, and is in fact with,them the
highest temporal authority.
11. Because the Church of Rome is by no
means definite on the subject even of the tern-
pond power of the Pope ; some of her ablest
writers having defended it, and some opposed it,
as interest might lead ; and because the Popes
have always claimed this authority in the most
unequivocal and unlimited terms.
111. Because those who tell us that this mea-
sure is not subversive of our Constitution, tell us
that the dominion of Popish Priests has been the
subversion of liberty every where else, and shew
their respect for the highest assembly in the land,
and an integral part of our Constitution, by call-
ing it 46 a den of thieves ;" and because those who
tell us that this measure will not injure the Church,
shew their respect for the same by calling its Mi-
and by treating

dignity, and concerning them
dis,racefol to 13illingsgate.
iv. Because the warmest advocates of the

question admit that it will not alleviate the dis-
tresses of Ireland.
V. Because we arethreatened withininriettion
•
and sedition, if we do not comply ; and are told
we must violate Or ConStitution or-lose
a threat which ought to be retracted before the.
question is touched at all.

YE. Because the Papists will not allow tu
to legislate for THEIR Chureh, while, by this
measure, they would be allowed the conducting
•
of ouns!

VII. Because the Papists themselves do not, in
all cases, know the tenets of their Church, since,
when the question was put in the Committee of
the House of Commons, " What opinions are
falsely ascribed to you by Protestants ?" the an-
swer was,.first, " Exclusive salvation in the Ca-
tholic Church ;" whereas the creed of Pope
Pius IV., the charitable document which every
goad Catholic is required to subscribe, and which
Mr. Butler considers as their great symbol of reli-
gion, asserts the doctrine of exclusi%'e salvation in
terms the most direct and perspicuous.
VIII. Because Bossuet, their highest authority,
admits that theirs is 'an intolerant Church, and
the whole of History, especially the recent pro-
ceedings concerning sacrilege in France, abun-
dantly confirms this opinion ; and it is perfectly
impossible for this religion. to subsist in any coun-
try on equality with any other.
IX. BzeAusz POPERY IS NOT CHANGED--be-
cause it glories in the attribute of
and appeals to the persecutions instituted not
only by its own intolerant spirit, but even to the
most ridiculous ceremonies and atrocious laws of
heathen superstition, to justify new absurdities
p.nd new atrocities, as witness the late law against
sacrilege in France.
X. Because Dr. Doyle, in his evidence before
the House, admitted • that the Roman Catholic
Bi,hops in Ireland were appointed by the Pre.
tender up to the time of his death, a fact which
shews how far the opinions of the Rornish Church
are likely to consolidate the principles of the Re-
volution, and the concealment of which she ws
how ably the Priests of Ireland can conceal the
most mischievous intrigues.

We received this morning the Buenos Ayres
Papers, from which we extract the following

articles :

(From the, Argus of Buenos (Ayres, from 23d Feruary to
sth Marc h'inchsiFe.)

FEi3; 23 —We have. letters.,from,Chili stating .that in the,
town of Chillan, in the province"or L Concession, a squadron
of cavalry had mutinied, and also a company of the battalion,
No. 1, and 30 dragoons. After committing some excesses
they seem to'have joined a chief nained'rincheira. All this is
probably the work of a defeated party, which seeks to take ad-
vantage of the dislike of the fanatics to the new order of things
which the Government is introducing in Chili. The Supreme
Director is resolved not to make any Compromise with the
passions of any party, and it is thought that these troubles will
soon be at an end. A squadron of cavalry is gone in pursuit
of the mutineers, and infantry will soon follow. We also learn
that Senhor Zanartu does not proceed on his mission to the
United states :no reason is assigned. The Liberal party con-
tinues to gain ground.

UPPER PER IT.

The Chili Mail brings accounts of what has happened since
the glorious battle Ayachuco. - A letter from a respectable per-
Fon at Santiago .fie Chile, says, Rodit will not deliver up
Callao, which conduct had obliged Bolivar to outlaw him and
his garrison. It is singular what motive he may have for this
conduct, as the Asia and other vessels with which he might
have made some resistance had entirely left the Pacific, some to
take the Viceroy and other Generals to France, as it is said the
others go to Manilla. On the fithJan.Callao was blockaded by the
Colombian corvette, Pinchincha, and probably by the squa-
dron of Admiral Guise. Three of Bodies gun-boats had join-
ed the blockading force.

Bolivar had about
.2,000 men at Lima, and expected 0,000
from Guayquil, with which he would besiege Callao. Rodit
will probably be delivered up by his own troops to the besieg-
ing army ; ha does not appear to have above 2,000 Wien. It is
affirmed that the standard of liberty is flying at Arequipa and
Arica.

lIITE.Nos-ArnEs.
The General Government,of. the United. Provinces has ap-
pointed Senor I)on Bernardind Rivadavia, Minister Plenipo-
tentiary to the Courts of England and Prance. The English
packet Camden, which sailed
,yesteiday,-has on board Senor
Don Ignacio Nunez, as Secretary to the Legation at the French
and English Courts. Mr. Griffiths; the Vic.-Consul, goes in
the same packet.

On Saturday the 19th, the ratification of the Treaty con-
cluded between the Government of Great Britain and that of
the United Provinces, took place in the Cabinet of the Go-
vernment. His Excellency the Governor, in presenting this
Act to the Minister Plenipotentiary, spoke as follows :

" Sir—The Government of the Province of Buenos Ayres
charged with the general authority of the Nation of the Unit-
ed Provinces of Rio de la Plata, has the satisfaction of deliver-
ing to the Plenipotentiary of His Majesty the Ring of Great
Britain, the treaty concluded on the 2d of this month, and now
ratified, and it is doubly satisfactory, as by this act a proof is
given of the similarity of the principles which prevail in both
nations, and as they are doubtless the surest pledge of the per-
petual friendship which ought to prevail between them."

PARISH replied—" In receiving by your Excellency the
ratification of our treaty, I cannot but congratulate your Excel-
lency and all the inhabitants of this country upon this event,
which places you in the rank of the nations recognised in the
world, and which is entirely owing to your own exertions, and
the liberal policy you have adopted.

" Sir—The flattering accounts which have reached his Brit-
tanic Majeity"on those points;added to-the wish expressed not
only by the Government but by'the inhabitants:of this country
in general, to cultivate at all times the most friendly relations
with the subjects of his Britannic Majesty ; and the conviction
of their Irrevocable resolution to separate for ever from Spain,
have been the considerations which have induced his Majesty
to take this step, and make this compact- with the United Pro-
vinces, sealing for ever our friendship by this most solemn act.

" May Heaven grant that this friendship be• perpetual, and
this act the passage which shall lead to the worthy recogni-
tion of the nation by the rest of the world !"

and the United Provinces.]
