tions, either in. the text or in the notes, you may in your discre
non think fit to 'suggest.... • -
" In those places of the holy scripture where you may-think
it prudent to wake concessions to .the heretics, and to hermit
the adoption of the heretical readings or version, we s'uggest
(yug3erintas) that short notes be appended, mentioning the
true reading, or version, and with caution vindicating it; but
also insinuating, not directly, although at the same time with-
out obscurity, that uo certainty can be had in such discrepan-
ciasom account of the endless variations of manuscripts and
versions; lest the faithful should be misled by your adoiqion of
the heretical readings, or imagine that any text of holy scrip-
ture can be,received with confidence otherwise than as it has
been sanctioned by the catholic church.

" Suggerimus jumper, &c. We suggest further, that questions
in the tam of a catechism (itzibrma catechetiea) be prepared to
accompany the lessons, but without answers, so that the master
of the school, ( ludimagister,) or other appointed teacher, may
by their means be given an opportunity of inculcating the trne
catholic tnear:ing of the scriptures; but in those schools where
a contrary use Could by any means be made of these questions,
or where a trustworthy teacher cannot easily be procured, our
counsel is, that you do tacitly or secretly disallow the use of the
extracts from scripture altogether, lest by any means the ene-
my should find occasion, while men sleep, to sow tares in the
garden of the Lord.
". And remember, venerable brethren, that these schools are
chiefly of use as they preserve the himbs of Christ's flock from
,the contagion of heretical schools;, and that the instruction of
'the children of the poor is of itself a matter of no moment—
nay, is dangerous, in the neighbourhood of heretics and in a
coontry where wicked and erroneous hooks, with mischievous
impunity 'are every' where 'dispersed re' the confusion of all
things human and divine (ad (liana humanague amnia pertur-
bauda).
,is your part, therefore, ( restrum est,) to.nieet-this
evil as far as posSitile, remembering the 'admonitions of the
'apostle, (Apostvii monitum;) that men ought not to be wise be-
yond what is needful, but to ,be wise to sobriety; .(non plus
i.pere guam oporteat sapere,sedsaper`ead sobiietatem ;) we recom-
inend,lherefore, '(horramur igitur,) that, wheresoever it can be
done without exciting the clamours of.the herejics, the children
in your schools be taught little; or rather nothing at all; but
that you be satisfied with keeping them, as in a preserve, front
.those emissaries of Satan who go about seeking whom they may
devour (circumeuntes guarenfes quern derorent.)
"Singulari#audio, &c. We have heard with great joy, that
through your influence several of this impious sort of heretics
have already been raised to high station, not only in the state
(1;1 regno); but also in the ecclesiastical dignities Of their
schism. We exhort you to continue to exert that power which
you have acquired with the counsellors of the King of England
in the same-way, and to endeaviiur especially.; that ecelesiaiti-
cal offices in the Anglican schism, be given to men who are
zealous advocates for unbounded lit.ense of opinions and words
evagantis opinionum sermonuriyie licentice ), as well as fi r that
censurable, unlimited fiberty of conscience.(doninanace omni-
Mode cnnscienthe libertatis ), which, as St. Augustin witnesseth,
is the liberty of error, and the death of the soul.' In no other
way will you more speedily and effectually compass the destruc-
tion of the Anglican sect..
" We'are not ignorant, venerable brethren, nay, we well
know, that there are others in the Anglican schism whom- vuu
cannot so easily make use of to your purposes, and who h-ave
always been the great obstacle to the restoration of the' faith in
England.

We charge vou to be particularly on your guard against this
most formidable sort of heretics, whom the other sort have
called the high church (Ecclesz:am altam sea excelsam); suffer
nut the clergy or catholic laity to come into open collision with
any of them, but rather let them be taken with guile, as foxes
which spoil the vines (tanquarn rulpes glue demoliuntur vineas.)
The experience of the English mission has taught you that the
most effectual method of dealing with this dangerous and
learned sort of heretics is to excite against them the enmity of
their more ignorant brethren, to Whom all mention of the holy
fathers and of christian antiquity is odious' and a subject of
scorn. Divisions and dissensions are easily excited amongst
such ash'ave departed from the centre of catholic unity, and
our strength is in their disunion. Let it he your business to,
excite these wild beasts to devour each other; let the heretics,
who still labour to maintain some outward form of catholic
unity and order, be everywhere spoken of as if they were se-
cretly inclined to catholic doctrine, and willing to reconcile
themselves to the holy see In this way you will awaken
against them the suspicions of their nation • and you will in-
crease the enmity with which they are regarded by their asso-
ciates in heresy, thus tying these foxes by the tails that their
faces may tend in opposite directions (ut facies eorum in adverse
tendant.")
He hoped after this that members of Parliament would not
cease to vote for the appropriation clause' of the Irish Church
Bill. • (Much laughter.) He had shown them that they had
Rhemish notes, and it now appeared there was a Rhemish Pope.
(I-Tear, hear, and a laugh.) He had been accused of going
about us a political incendiary, and he cared not for the accusa-
tion, if he but succeeded in promoting the cause of truth. But
he would soleinnly declare that, during the whole of a some-
what long residence in the immediate neighbourhood of Dublin,
he had never belonged to anly political party or society, and
had never but once' (and that was' by a mere accident, in 1834)
been present at any political meeting whatever. He had never
listened to any of the polieal orators of Ireland,—not even to
the great Leviathan himself (Cheers.) Hel had, in the little
anti Kimble efforts he had made, been solely anxious for the
benefit of his poor deluded Catholic countrymen. (Cheers.)
Dens's Theology had been put into his hands by a Protestant
bookseller.in November, 1834, and had lain unopen on his table
until April last, hut in looking into it afterwards, he felt it to be
a duty to expose its contents to the Public. (Hear, and cheers.)
He would not enslave the consciences of his Catholic brethren.
Perish the law which would compel them to worship God in any
manner ctintrary to their conscientious feetings—(cheers)—and
perish the law which' would lift the latch of the cottage-doors to
harm them. . He wished for liberty for the Catholics—freedom
from the bondage of a spiritual tyranny. (Immense cheering.)
These were his sentiments and feelings, and when he stood on
that platform and saw before him the reporters of the papers
which had reviled bin' and his rev. hrethren (hear) for the
efforts they had made in the cause of truth, he felt glad to stand j
before them on their own ground. He loved a free press.
(Great cheering.) Give him x free people, and a free press,
with met' of power and energy to work it, and no System of
tyranny, profligacy, or crime, could stand a moment before
them. He liked a free press, but he hated a false one. (Re-
iterated cheers.) It had a right to state its opinion upon every
fact freely and fearlessly, but not to deny the truth of what were
known to be matters of feet. When Englishmen read news-
papers they looked for truth. (Cheers.) Could those papers
deny that Dens's Theology was the religion of Ireland, and out-
herod Herod by denying what Air. O'Connell himself had not j
dared to come here and refute ? He cared not what reports ap-
peared in the papers, or what measures they took against him;
but they must not think to move a Christian minister in the'
honest discharge of his duty. (Cheers.) They might frighten
statesmen (a laugh), and politicians, or write down this or that
ministry, but they might as well attempt to move the dome of-
Si: Paul's as move a servant of the' living God from the path of
his dhtc. They might excite an infuriated mob to pull down
that venerable pile, but they could not excite a mob against a
minister of Christ. (Immense cheering.)
"Justem et tenacem propositi virum,
Non civium ardor prava jubeutium,
Non vultus instant's tyranni
Mente quatit solida. '
(The .rev. gentleman then sat down after a few observations of
a similar tendency, but which were rendered nearly inaudible
by the applause with which every word Of them was received.)
A person, who we understand was the same who was turned
out of the hall at the last meeting of the Protestant Association,
rose, after the cheering had subsided, and observed, that he
could deny all which had been advanced, but he was immedi-
ately called to order by the chairman, who, after the resolu•
tions were put and seconded by the Rev. J. Harding, immedi-
ately declared the meeting to be dissolved.
