cipal manufacturing -districts,- while they had
done nothing when in opposition to relieve it, had
convicted themselves of being either political
charlatans or political rogues, we did not put the
case against them as strongly as we might have
put it. Not only did they do nothing when in
opposition to relieve that distress,but they refused
to listen to the plans proposed by the late Mi-
nisters to relieve it. Thinking of nothing but
how to thrust themselves into office, they threw
out: the first pail of the late Ministers' budget
upon-a pretext wholly foreign either to the con-
'dition of our people or the state of the revenue.
They rejected the proposed alteration in the
sugar duties, because that might perchance injure
the fat, sleek, and well-fed labourers of Jamaica.
The reduction in the sugar duties, combined
with the other measures proposed by the
Whigs, were calculated, they said, to re-
lieve the public distreSs ; and the Tories,
by refusing to discuss them in Par:iament,
made themselves fearfully responsible flsr all the
distress which they now acknowledge has pre-
vailed for a consideeable period in some of the
principal manufacturing districts.
We do not belong to that school which ex-
pects much from legislation. We agree with
Lord STANLEY and the Duke OZ WELLINGTON,
that it is impotent to extinguish poverty and
annihilate distress; but, though it be impotent
to effect good, it does not, therefore, follow that
it is impotent to cause there evils. We agree
with a writer in the Leeds Times, who gives a
frightful picture of the poverty and distress ex-
isting in that town, which will be found in an-
other part Sit. 7, that there arc no natural
causes tor the pre-rent sad condition of our peo-
ple, and that their sufrerings are the fruit of
legislation, which, though impotent for goad, is
by no Inea:!s powerless to do mischief.
Whence, however, comes that mass of statutes,
and how can the Duke of WELLINGToN and
Lord STANLEY defend and maintain them, which
are directed against poverty, and intended to
annihilate distress, if legislation be as they say,
and as we believe, impotent to that end? 50t,;,,;
lieving, we do not ask the Legislature to give food
to the people ; we do not aik it to employ them ;
we do not require it to ensure them good wages ;
we are much more modest, we ask it only to let
them alone, to allow them to feed and find em-
ployment for themselves, unrestricted and unfet-
tered by ignorant and mischievous laws, and
then they must be contented with such wages as
competition amongst themselvesand amongst the
capitalists would give. it is quite impossible,
however, to look at the present condition of
society, and know that every branch of industry
is fettered by noxious regulations, without con-
cluding that the Legislature is, before. GOO and
man, seriously and solemnly responsible, and
particularly-the Tory legi:flatbrs who rejected the
budget, fur that distress which has prevailed and
is prevailing.
They have even postponed all inquiry into it,
and all means of relieving it for at leas: some
months, and have thereby proved themselves
the most heartless, cruel politicians that, ever
governed the country. Yet these are the men
whom the Spectator praises, and whom Mr.
WAKLEY proposes to give a fitir trial to. The,
people are solemnly admonished, in a book
which the Tories pretend to reverence, to curse
those who withhold food from them, and the
people will probably curse those cruel Ministers,
who, acknowledging their distress, continue to
withhold food from 'them.

We are aware that the conduct of the Tories
finds some countenance in the conduct of the
Whigs. In fact, statesmen are judged by Con-
trast and comparison, and the sole wis-
dom of the Tories is found in the follies
of the Whigs. It is clear from the returns'
we have quoted of the healtit of different places
that the lower classes suffered more from disease,
and the mortality was greater amongst them in
1838, 1839, 1840, than in 1841. During• these
terrible years, however, when the people had
yet energy enough to try and help themselves—
when their sufferings were manifested by great
meetings and intense excitement--the people,
feeling great pain, but being ignorant of the
means of helping themselves—during these ,ter-
rible years the Whigs refused, and by the aid'of
the Tories were enabled successfully to refuse, All
alteration, and even all inquiry, into the Corn-
laws, which were called for generally by the -
Liberal party. They were then as deaf
to the voice of distress as the Tories
now are, and it was only when that
distress begun to affect the revenue, after it had
nearly done its work on the people, thinning
their numbers, destroying their spirit, and ren-
dering them incapable of paying the increased
taxes demanded of thetn—it was only in 1841,
after the people had been for three years a prey
to great sufferings, that the Whigs proposed
their Budget.

Even then they based it on wrong principles.
To give relief to the people was its secondary
object; to increase the revenue was its principal
care. To do justice to the people did not enter
into their hearts, and the people left them a
prey to their riVals, the Tories. They could
take no intereat in a measure which appeared to
them, by increasing the revenue, to increase their
burthens.

The conduct of the late Minis:ers, who refused
to give relief in 1838, 1839, and 1810, and pro-
posed measures in 1841, of which relief to the
people was the secondary okect, is the only ap-
parent justification we can find for the still worse
conduct of their successors. But Whig faults will
not excuse Tory crimes, and as the late Minis-
ters became thoroughly unpopular, the present
men will soon be thoroughly hated and bitterly
cursed.

While we are reminding our friends of their
serious faults, we must remind the mill-owners
and other capitalists of the North that in 1838,
1839, and 1840, 'before they were humbled by
their losses, and before they saw their property
melting away as at present, they took an active
part against the people, and called even for more
coercion than the Whig Ministers were willing
to gratify them by employing. They acted then
on the true Tory principle of hating and fearing
the people. They were then -*the best allies
of the Tories and the Corn-laws. Now the
Tories read them lessons on cruelty, reproaching
them with their avarice arid Lard-hearted,
ness, stigm;Aizing them as the oppressors of
the people, and even invoking destruction on
their abodes and factories. England, the Tory
Journals have told 113, NVOIlld be no worse

o t) C
Every day almost the nrill-o: • are vitu-
Aerated by the Tory Journalists, who may
probably now see in that, and in the deter-
mination formed by the . Tory landlords to give
them no relief, something like retributive justice
for their conduct towards the working classes in
the years we have mentioned. We are well
aware that they were aided and encouraged by
some portions of the Liberal and respectable
Press, but we differed at the time from our
brethren, and the present powerless condition of
the manutheturing classes, from the prevailing
conflicts between the represented and the un-
represented, have served to convince us of the
soundness of our views, and of the impolicy of
the course which the Whig Journals, the Whig
Ministers, and the manufacturing capitalists pur-
sued towards the working classes in the years
1838 and 1839.

We received last night Belgian and Dutch
papers of the Bth and 9th instant. The debates
in the Budget in the Dutch Parliament are.
carried on with great spirit. A great -trtirtilier
of the Members are for, retrenchment and a elf-
ferent scale of taxation, in order, that the present
heavy\ bfirdens may press more lightly on the
lower and middle classes, and that the more
wealthy may be compelled to contribute their
full share for the expeilses of the Government
but the Tory party have been victorious, and a
number of ;;rants have 'heel, 1)v cr.,:L.itier-
ablc majorities. Another trial.of strength, how-
ever, is evidently approaching. The revenue is

enznee and then by M. Dupin. A 7'e Deem was per-
formed in the church, and in the evening there WAS a
grand banquet.
The Marseilles mail has been unusually late in arriv-
ing at Paris during the last few days,, the delay having
been caused by their being obliged to take circuitous
routes, the regular line of _road having been in
several places . broken .up by inundations. The
Lyons Journals of Tuesday represent the Rhone
and Saone as still increasing, •and beginning to over-
flow the quays, but express hopes that the inundation
will not exceed the usual floods. In the course of Sa-
turday night, three houses and other buildings in the
environs were struck by the lightning,
and sumo totally,
some partially destroyed. At Vaise, it killed twenty
sheep belonging to a butcher who had housed them.
A barge was sunk near the Brotteaux, and a great
many trees were thrown down at St. Foy. At Vernaieon,
it kided five horses ethployeti in towing a barge, and
seriously affected the man driving them. These )ournals

appreension of the win& village being swept aW.47 by

The female servant, whose injuries were not at first con-
sidered dangerous, expired 36 hours before'ber mistress.

The • new Amerleae tariff hes been voted by the
Senate, and sanctioned by the President. In conse-
quence, dating from September 30 last, all-articles
ported into the United States, which were admitted duty
free, or subject to a duty of less than twenty percent.,
will have to .pay 20 per cent. duty, with the exeeption
oe the articles designated in this new tariff, most of
which are materials necessary for the manufacture
of works of art, &c. It is knowitt that the
chief object of this act is to affect French silk
manufactUrerS. Another article of the act imposes .a
duty of 6 cents. per gallon on the ied Wider of France

A letter, signed JAMES ACLAND, in another
part of The Stet, states, amongst other things—
There is in Tamworth a Grainmar School, founded by
Sir Robert's father, for the gratuitonz education of the
,children of the inhabitants so long as a Peel shall re-
present the borou;li ; and I am credibly informed that
the master (Savage by name, and, as it should seem,
servile by nature), informed the boys a few days since
that he had received a letter from the Prime Minister,
ordering him to discharge the children' of all those who
had signed the petition ! The way being thus prepared,
the Relieving Oaleer and his colleagues. went round to
the parents 'Of the children to " inquire " if they had
signed that important 'document. And the public may
believe that some disclaimers were the consequence.
Can this be true? We quote it to provoke a
contradiction if, be. not. We give no opinion
on any part of the paragraph, though the whole
of it is worthy of observation, till we are assured
by the silence of the Ministerial journals that it
is true, or learn by their explanations and denials
that it is false..

Among the official despatches from China
which we this day publish, from the London
Gazette ExtraordirLary of Friday night, will be
found one from the late lamented Captain Sir
11. FLEMING SENUOUSE, frOill which only
extritcts were given in the despate!cs from
Lord AUCKLAND, which appeared in The
Sun of
.Thursday. The dispositions made
.for an attack on Canton by this gallant officer,
cannot be perused without enhancing the deep
sorrow universally felt for his lw!s. All the
other despatches froth China published in the
Gazette, and not firand in our columns of thi
day, appeared in 7'lte Sti:z of Thursday.

The whole of the French Journals of Thurs-
day have been received► The following is the
telegraphic despatch published by the French
Gciverninent, announcinx the state of things in
Navarre.:—
The French Government, on the 6th instftrit, rcceive3
the following telegraphic dispatch :

"Bayonne, Oct. 5.
" THE SUB -PREFECT TO THE MINISTER 02 THE INTERIOR.
" The Captain-General Ribeiro is still at Pampeluna.
The National Guard obeys him. O'Donnell is in the
citadel : they watch each other's movements. General
Ortigosa makes common cause with O'Donnell. Some
defections in the army are spoken of. A part of the
garrison of Estella and theoCommander are said to have
declared in favour of O'Domiell. The federal depu-
tation was to have a meeting extraordinar,y •cstercla,y at
Ascoi tia."

The accession of the Tories to office in -Eng-
land has quite revived the hopes of the Christi-
nos and Carlists in Spain. Already do they exult-
ingly dwell upon Lord PALMERSTON'S retirement
from office as an omen of Victory, and quote the
speeches of the Duke of WELLINGTON, Lord
ABERDEEN, Sir ROBERT PEEL, Mr. FENTON)
Mr. PETER BORTHWICK, Mr. MikettAJ, and
Lord CARNARVON, in favour of Don CAR-
LOS, to show what they have to expect
front the sympathies of the Tories now in
office. The French Government evidently sup-
ports the designs of the Christino insurgents. In
the following article from the Journal des _Debuts,
interesting from the account which it gives. CI
General O'DortuEtt, it manifestly labours to
justify the seizure of Pampeluna:—
is notorious that since the protest of Maria Chris-
tina against the guardianship, great agitation has
manifested itself in Spain, and particularly in tie
army. The resignation of General Palafx, Puke
Saragossa, as Commandant of the Guard, and the public
manifestations of General Diego Leon and a great
number of officers in favour of the Queen, indicated
an approaching re-action in the army, which appears
to be much disgusted with the part it has been con
polled to assume by the Exaltados of Barcelona. Ge-
neral Leopold O'Donnell, who has just taken possession
of the citadel of Pampeluna, is the same who lately
commanded the army of the centre in Valencia. He
is of Irish- origin ; his father commanded a corps
d'arinee in the war of independence. Three of his bra•
!hers embraced the interests of Don Carlos. One was
Made prisoner and murdered by the people of Barcelona;
the other, who was Commander-in-thief of the cavalry
of Don Carlos, died of his wounds during the cam:
paign ; the third entered the Constitutional army
after the Convention of Bergara. Leopold O'Donnell
first served in the Royal Gaud. During the last war
he was chiefly employed in Biscay and Guipuseca,
where he acquired a lair military . reputation. Last
year, as soon as ho heard of the movement of Barce-
lona, and the conduct of Espartero towards the Queen,
he gave in his resignation ; but the Queen, who re-
posed all her confidence in him, refused to accept it, and
soon afterwards proceeded to Valencia to place herself
under his protection. General O'Donnell remained at Va-
lencia, struggling with energy against the revolt which
was getting up there, and commanded the army till the
Queen abdicated. He has since then passed some time in
France, and on returning to Spain applied for permission to
retire to Bilboa, but Espartero, who was jealous of the rept-
tation and influence of O'Donnell in the army, fixed upon
Pampoluna• as his place of residence. It appears that for
some time past the Regent has been uneasy as to the
garrison of Pampeluna, and under the apprehension of a
revolt, had sent thither troops from Castile. These
were the first troops to join O'Donnell. The National
Guard of Pampeluna, which remains faithful to the Go-
vernment, is composed of only one hundred men, who all
belong to the party of the exahados. The institution of
the National Guard has never taken root in Navarre and
the Basque Provinces, where it is considered as contrary
to the:rfueros. General O'Donnell is a man of thirty-
five or thirty-six years of age, tall, and of a martial,
severe air. His charaeter is cold and reserved, but
very decided." •

Tn`E SIMI, or 'Tag Toni- 071.ICIALs.---We have
been stunned aimogt to 'deazli by BtitternenLa of the
wonderful skill and cleverness of the Tory officials;
They are as much superior, we are told, to the Whigs in
office for finding out what is right, as light is superior to
darkness. Report says that thdr first act does not cor-
respond to their boasting. It is stated in the City tha:
there is sueh a discrepancy between thelate notice for
a loan, and fanding Exchequer Bills • issued by that
sterling old red rapist, Mr. Goulburn, and the Act of Par-
liament for carrying that notice into effect, that the Act
will most probably be suspended by an order in Council..
By the notice interest was to he allowed on Exchequer
Bills only till the 27th of September, on which stater:lei:A
the loan was made ;by the Act that interest continued
till the same date in November, giving the subscribers
two months more interest than they contracted to receive.
Such. according lo report, is the bungling of the Tory
Mr. Goulburn and his Tory helps.

- The produce markets generally have been very brisk

so long a time past. This relates, however, chiefly
to Colonial artieles of consumption ;. for, unfortunately,
several untoward events have had an unfavourable- in-
fluence upon foreign produCe. Tea has fluctuated very
much on account of the heavy supplies we shall receive.
Tallow has fallen -in consequence of the serious failures,
and Indigo has gone off flatly, owing to the dull state of
our manufacturing industry.
On the Continent matters arc more in our favour,.
owing to the glut of Specie' there, and the rise in the
exchange on London ; and.as the adviees from Sydney
to-day are more satisfactory, perhaps there may be a

most noble reward for till your pains, are owing, to
your discipline, your constant zeal, and the perse-

Proud of having presided over your efforts, I participate
'in the praise and glory of your success. Several of you

faithful to them. Thus has been rendered sacred to
all that collective existence which renders you consoli-

FORE:SON.
The insurrection in Navarre is noticed in the leadint„,
columns of all the Paris Journals of Thursday. The
Gazette de France, a Legitimist journal, says:—" The
telegraphic despatch announcing the movement at Pampe-
luna arrived at four o'clock on Monday afternoon. It
was instantaneous] v forwarded to St. Cloud. and there&
to Maria Christina in the Rue de Courcellcs. Maria Chris-
tina immediately convoked her Council, Martinez de la
Rosa, and Count do Toreno. The question discussed was
whether M•lrla Christina should go to Spain, and place
herself at the head of the troops in St. Sebastian and
Panipeluna. It was resolved that the Queen should re-
:nain in Paris, sending two agents. to the frontier.
General O'Donnell, who commenced the movement, was
a month ago in Paris, where he passed sixty days with
the influential personages of Queen Christina's party. It
I is said he carried three millions of francs with him from
Par its: Since Monday evening, the Queen's residence has
been efonstaxtly filled with people. The Government did
-nut publish the news until it was in a measure constrained
by the intevpallations of IL Olozaga, who had received
despatches from the frontier. A rumour i current that
Gomez and Villa Real have entered Spaino,and that the
Basque provinces are up." -* -
The Journal des Debuts, the Court oreeniai, no de..
-
cided opinion upon the subject of the Spanash volg-Vt
merely thinks that it is not of a nature, Ith,lnnWna
civil war in Spain. The Debats, however;- betrays that
the leaning of the Court is entirely in favour of Aiaria
Christina. We think the King of the French would do
well to attend to his own affairs, without intriguing in
matters which wholly concern Spain. We trust the
Cortes will have the spirit to declare the property of
Maria. Christina in Spain forfeited to the State. It is
the immense wealth of which she plundered Spain' that
now enables her to make war on its institutions.
'The Censtitutionntl, the organ of M. Thiers, wlici is
now in •observes, that the state of Spain is such as
to reqUire few etrorts to convulse it on any point. It
is evident that revery movement against Espartero, and
for the purpose of prepaa'lng the way for the return of
Queen will ijo keen with pleasure by the
Frenca GoveriMitnltt whtoft. the Constitutionnel regards
as a moral accomplicti.llY any ititrigue or- outbreak in
ravoiir of the exiled Queen.
The Prase, another of the jottrtials whicit receive the
inspirations of Louis Philippe, very sinnliftezt-ntly tells
us that Espartero has committed so ninny bh:nders
aince his accession to stipreme power, that there 'is
strong feeling of indiffin'ence toWards him in Spain, ere?:
amongst those who were,until recently, his most zealous and
active partizans; and that his conduct towards France hats
been ,nitflt as to shut out all hope that'the French Go-
vernment will lend to him tiny support or encourage-
ment in his efforts to maintain himself. The Presse
doubts also whether he has anything like support to ex-
pect fro:n England, although he has done so . much for
that eountry; for, according to the Prctlef grAitude is
a virtue unktlevrn to the English ; and even it Espartero
should receive xnpport ft•ora England, the Presse says it
would do him more harm than gnOd. We may well here task
whether the Presse means to insintinte that if England
supports him France will declare for -3.l.aria Christina ?
Some such threat appears to be implied.
The National thinks that the insurrection is the result
of an intrigue between Maria Christina, O'Donnell, and
the French Government, and is very severe on the
French Cabinet for iti perfidy towards Spain. We adopt
for once the opinion of the National. General O'Donnell
did not move a step in the direction of Spain without the
approbation of thentrincipal personage at the Tuilleries.
The CortrTier Fragcaix considers that there is little
chance of- success for •O'Donnell, unless he can find
money to carry on a civil war. None of the Sovereigns
of hi urope will, it says, assist him, and Queen Christina,
who has, if our Contemporary's information be correct.
placed eight or ten millions of francs in the French
funds, will not be much disposed to draw them out on
such a venture as a civil conflict in Spain.
The France, a Legitiinist paper, sses in the. insurrec-
tion in Navarre another chance of the restoration of
Don Carlos, and the triumph of absolutist principles in
tipin. Constitutional Spain has therefore open enemies
and false friends in abundance in France.
Baron d'Est, the late defaulter on the Paris Bourse to
the amount of 500,000 francs, has been arrested at Brim.
sels.by two of his creditors. The Belgian 'Government,.
Ims been applied to for permission to remove hitvr."to
Paris.

The Archbishop of Cologne has solemnly resigned
his diocese, which he has engaged never to visit so long
as he lives. Tins was one of the conditions upon which
the King of Prussia agreed to settle the question of
mixed marriages.
A Malta paper says, that on the 30th cf. September
a Court-martial was held on board her Majesty's ship
Howe, by order of Itelr-Admiral Sir John Omnianney,
to try Mr. H. B. Beresford, mate of her Majesty's ship Van-
guard, upon a charge preferred by the captain of said ves-
sel, Sir David Dunn, for 'not having executed an
order repeatedly given to him by his captam..in the pre-
sence of the officers and ship's/ company of the said Yes-
sal, on Wednesday, the 21st day of July, 18.11." The
Court, after hearing two witnesses in support of the
-Charge, and a very able written defence, read by the
prisoner with great emphasis, declared the charge not
proved, and acquitted him thereof accordingly. Captain.
Basil Hail, and several other distinguished travellers, now
at Malta, were present throughout the trial ; and, indeed,
perhaps no Court-martial ever caused, particularly among
the junior officers of the navy, greater excitement, or de-
light and gratification at the justice of the result."

The Morning Chronicle, remarking on the late refer-
ences made in Parliament to the bribery and corruption
practised generally at the- last election, says :—" Let
there be a thorough investigation. Let there be
no paltering, no shuliiinee and, above all, no at-
tempt to screen the really guilty parties, by making
scapegoats of agents or instruments. It is required for
the vindication of the Reform :Act ; it is required for
the honour of the country ; it is required fur our future
safety. And when the investigation is complete, and the
really guilty arc punished, let some measure be brought
in—an honest comprehensive measure—whose operation
may save us, at least to some extent, from the abomina-
tions and the danger of future bribery and corruption."—
This is a judicious recommendation, but the Tories know
better than to enter with earnestness and sincerity into a
searching investigation of the wholesale system of bri-
bery pursued at the late elections. They are too deeply
interested to do so. The utmost they will do, will be to
institute a tame, partial, bit-by-bit scrutiny, such as
shall be attended with no detriment to themselves.. In
fact, they will just keep up appearances, nothing more.
The Morning Herald thus speaks of. Lord Sydenham's
administration of the Canadas :—" On Lord S'eaton's re-
call froth Canada, Mr. Thomson was appointed to the
Supreme Government of British .North America, and
was subsequently elevated to the Peerage. The subor-
dinate character of his previous employment, the want of
personal dignity, and his known_free-trade opinions, pro-
duced a considerable opposition to the' appointment,
and Mr. Thomson certainly left England to commence
his administration under no very favourable auspices.
We now, however, freely admit that the evil anticipa-
tions then formed have not been fulfilled, and that
Lord Sydenham's Government of Canada has, on the
whole, been successful. His Lordship slowly conquered
the distrust of the. Canadians, and under his adminietra-
eioa prosperity has gradually re-dawned on this noble
dependency. The union of the two provinces was skil-
fully commenced by the deceased Baron—an attempt
was made to develope their great resources by complet-
ing the public works indispensable to their prosperity ;
and if the name of Baron Sydenham is to be preserved
for a few years in the recollection of the nation, it will
be in connection with Canada. We can say no more t
we could say no less."—The frankness and candor of
the above passage are highly creditable to our Contem-
porary. It is not often that a Tory Journal thus rises
superior to party prejudices in its estimate of men and
things.
'nc Post has discovered that the clamour against the
Corn-laws is a purely factitious one—that it is a hired
clamour, and that a great part-of it arises front " ignorant
prejudice and empty vanity." If for " empty vanity,"
our Contemporary had substituted` " empty stomach,"
we would have agreed with him, for this undoubtedly is
at the bottom of the present Anti-Corn-law clamour.
The following are the. Poses remarks on this subject :
"By far the greater portion of the clamour against
the prorogation of Parliament and for the continued
discussion of the Corn-laws, was no doubt insincere.
A good deal of it was regularly hired and paid for—the
wages, we believe, were small, but the work was coarse
and mean, and deserved no better payment. A great
part of it arose from ignorant prejudice and empty
vanity—the persons making the clamour only knew that
the Corn-laws were generally supported by the landed .
aristocracy, and that their repeal was a theme on which
something might be said at this or that meeting in order
to gain :little local notoriety. No small portion of it
had for its origin mere selfishness, the people who made
the noise hoping thereby to gain something for them-
selves, through the popular agitation, but knowing very
well that no such benefit to the poor as they pretended
to seek for could possibly arise from a change of the
-Corn-laws."
The Times says, "We observe with pleasure that a
ContempOrary, who has lately been dwelling at consider-
able length upon the subject of Church extension, de-
clares himself to advocate it upon principles which
not contemplate an application to the funds of the
country as a necessary part of the plan ;' and
that Sir Robert Inglis has declined to commit him-
self to the renewal, in a future session, of his former
notice upon this subject. If there were no other rea-
son for such a course,• the state of the Exchequer
would furnish an irresistible ground ler the retracta-
don, under existing circumstances, of all such claims
on behalf of the Church. But being (as we are)' con-
vinced that there are other and much weightier rea-
sons, pointing to a still more absolute and unequivocal
conclusion, we shall not rest satisfied till we hear that
the whole scheme for making the ministrations of
the Church commensurate with the spiritual necessi-
ties of the people by means of Parliamentary grants
of money, is permaneetly abandoned. It is a
scheme full' of danger to the Church herself ;
likely to compromise her spiritual efficiency and purity ;
certain to deprive her of that degree of independence
which she retains at present, and to destroy much of the
security which she enjoys for the maintenance of her
temporal establishments. We believe also, that it
would defeat its own object, and that the full and flow-
ing stream of voluntary contributions would disappear,
