" The pretensions of the Clergy have just given
rise to a scene at. Cliatellerault nor tinlike that which
occurred in 1814. at the funeral of a celebrated
ttess. The principal physician of the former town
having died without receiving tl.e sacrament, the
priests refused aohnitting the corpse into their thurch,
and performing the accustomed funeral rites. A
coMplaint on the .subject was itrimediately ;,telerred
to the Mayor, who summoned the priests ro discharge
their duty s but the latter pct tested agaiiist this sum-
mons, upon the ground of their ministry not having
been milled in when the deceased was in egirernit.andl
referred the case to their Grand Vicar, who appibved
their resolution. The inhabitants of the town, who
took a great interest itt the affair, Waited with anxiety
the evens of these deliberation; and on being infix..
med of ihe tertnination of the Chapter, they-pro.
seeded to. the Church, forced open the doors, and
caused the uneral procession to enter, compelling at'
the same time the 'few priests they could bring to.
gedwr to perform the use:al Service. The Sub-Pre-
feet on this occasion took the part of the Priesthood
against the Mayor, and called met the departmental .
legion 'to disperie the procession, consisting of the
most respectable inhabitants of. the place, together.
with the mass of; the peOple,. who. kept. the primts
closely within they ranks, whiltt the.. Mayor, on the
other hand, suppoSted by the national guard, kept
the legion at bay, and caused the whole ceremony td •
begone through Otithout inteirtiption. This circum-
sunceo intuited. the peepte ta.Chatellerault against
the Clergy, that a kw itinerant. missionaties of the
Duchesse, happening to arrive thereabout that time;
they met with so inhospitable a reception as to be
Obliged to retreat precipitately to another quarter:
Tee conduct of the priests of Chatellerault, On this .
occasion, may be considered as a first tfFect of chi
Project de 'Lc.i thodor onoe;derattott of ttrChant=
herr, for allowing the Clergy to receive gifts and ite.
quests without die interference of GoVeinatent, and
thereby te!,toritix the proprietary right to that body.
The Clergy will certainly becoe: in future very im-
portunate to the dying ; they will deny their ininiStrY
to the departed when the °latter may have declined
it, or not sufficiently requited it, Matheir. (tying "

The insurrection still villa/ Ate' Brittany, At
Rennes, a 'strong party of Vendeani Mit committed .
the most commons excesses ; murdering and patio=
ing what-are termed the Bonapartists and purchasers
of national property, and pillaging and burning their
houses. The Mayor of that toWn, who has acted .a
very spirited part in the course of these disttirbancer,
being finable to oppose longer resistance to the re.
bels, has retired into the Town Howe, where he is
still protected by a small ',Arty of national guards.
His situation is such, Alin ail efDats for the wafter °
execution of his office must be ineffectual. M. Me.
liars de St. Jean, who is at the head of the insurrec-
tion in La Vendee, has received orders to repair to
Paris, in order to give an account of his conduct.—
He is informed, that if these orders are not obeyed
within eight chys of his receiving them, he will.bo
considered as a chef ele ravll.v. :tut} treated as such..
" Changes in the Ministry continue io be spoken of;
their necessity bring daily more Telt : but it is under-
stood that they will noutake place until after the ses-
sion of the Legislaittre. it being :feared than such
changes may obstruct the progress of the business at
present lying before the Chambers."
