DAILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS
JULY 3, 1826.

[TUE TIMES.]

That.the Catholic religion is trot the same it for-
merly was, at least in practice, 'is an obvious and
often repeated proposition. It is, well known to have
undergone, and gill to be undergoing, very consider.'
able alterations in point of discipline, but fesv, we
believe, hive appreciated the ,extent of the influence
which the rising states Of the New World seem
destined, to have in Operating. changes of this kind.
From various proeeedings which have taken place
with respect to ecclesiastical aflitirs in those countries,
it is not unreasonable to expect that they will yet
emancipate themselves from religious aS well as poli-
tical thraldom. The first 'step to be taken in acconi-
plithing.this great object is to limit the authority of
lie Roman Pontiff, and as soon as possible to throw it
off entirely:. Accordingly,. it 'appears that the more
enlightened' leaderS of the new ReptiblieS keip this
important end in view, and it will probably in a few
years. tia found that with .thein. the term ".Popery"
will bare no real existence—thepeople will be Roman
Catholics, but not Papists. • 'This expectation, is not
--;the supposition thst 'the 'American
Spaniards, are more free from the fetters of ignorance
and superstition than their brethren in :Europe, The
prospect. of speedy change does not depend on the
existing knowledge of the people, but on the disposi-
tion of the heads of the clergy and the ruling powers.
&great proof of the influence of bigotry certainly
exists in the constitutions of the different States, all
of Which, we believe, exclude every religion except the
Catholic ; but this circumstance is •not inconsistent
with a wish on the part of-the very.persons'fo whose
influence the introduction of such a blemish in a re-
publican constitution is owing. It is easy to conceive
that the same bishops and. superior clirgy who have
eagerly urged the adoption of anintolerant article, cal-
culated, by excluding other religioni, to preserve their
&Minion over the minds of the people, may also` wish
to, be relieved from foreign control.. To the transac-
tions of the new Governments on the other side of the
Atlantic which corroborate our opinion on this sub-
ject, must be added a recent proceeding of the ../Vlesi.,
can Congress. united The report of two Committees'
(las, Commissiones Eclesiirstica y de Relaciones) on
the instructions to be given- to tile Mexican Envoy at
Rome, was read in a 'secret sitting of the Senate on
the' 2d of March, and ordered to be printed. This
important document, which was drawn up by an
eminent ecclesiastic, Padre .Mier, commences by
adverting to some proceedings, on the , same sub-
ject in the Chamber of Deptities with , which the
Committees of the Senate JO not concur, because
that assembly,, though holding the same opinion as
the. Crommittees, appeared " to consider it necessary
to compromise with the pretensions of the ,Court of
I. -Roble." _ At the same time, the Report expresses a
hope than tine present Pope will yield to' the wishes of
the Mexican Church, in spite .of the Court, "" ivhicli
has alWaYs.been inclined to subject the Popes to,its
" caprices." To. the opposition made by the. Curia, or
Court. of Rome, to every kind of reform, the Reptittat-
tributes ill the evils which have befallen theCluirch.--;-
.EVen the persecution of the cagiolic*igio” during
the 'French Revolution is stated to have:beeu occa
sioned by the obstinate resistance, made to the re-
-4". forms decreed by the Constituent 'Assembly." Patro-
nage is deelatea to belong to the nation, and Ow a:,-
sutnption of it to be an infringement of the, rights. of
the people. Among those rights, that most essential
to the government of the churches,. is stated to' be the
election of their own pastors, and the confiritation of
Those pastors 'by their respective Metropolitans, ,is itli.
out waiting for the. Papal confirmation., The Report
also enters into the question of the supremacy claimed
by the Bishop of Rome over-other Bishops, shown
from ,Scripture and history that the Apostles were dH
placed by their' Divine ,Master on an equal footing,.
and that, therefore, be Pope can claim no superiority
as the successor of St. Pew. All that the committees
seem willing to concede to his Holiness is; the -dignity,
almost merely nominal,' of 'Primacy. We would re-
commend
the perusal, of the document, of which we
have given a brief description, to the enemies of Ca-
tholic eMancipation, at least to such of thein as are not
predetermined to reject 'evidence, like, the reverend
supporter_ of Mr. Sumner, who declared that, he never
would read the report of the House of Lords on the
Catholic claims..
