" Forasmuch as Almightie God hathin all ages showed his
power and mercy in the miraculous and gracious deliverance
of his Church, and in the protection of religious Kings and
States, And that no Nacion of_ the Earth bath bene blessed
with greater benefitts then this Kingdome now enjoyeth,
having the true and free profession of the Gospell under our
'poste gracious Soveraigne Lorde Kinge that ever Reigned
therein, enriched with a most hopefull and plentiful! progenie
proceeding out of his Royall loynes promysing continuance
of this happines and profession to all Posteritie ; the which
many malignant and devilishe Papists Jesuits and Semynarie
Priests muche envying and fearing Conspired most horriblie,
when the King's most excellent Majestic, the Queene the
Prince, and all the Lordes spirituall and temporall and Co-
mons should have bene assembled in the upper Howse of Par.
liamente upnon the fifte day of November in the yeere of our
Lord 1605 suddenly to have blowen up the said whole Howse
with Gunpowder; AN INVENCION SOE INH UMANE,
BARBAROUS AND CRUELL, AS THE LIKE WAS
NEVER BEFORE HEARD OF, and was (as some of the
principall-Corispirators thereof confesse) purposely devised and
concluded to be done in the saide Howse, that wnere sundrie
nec

ssarie and Religious lawes for preservation of the Church
and State were made, which they falsely and slaunderously
terme cruell lawes enacted against them and theire Religion,
both place and persons should be all destroyed and blowen
upp at once, which would have turned to the utter ruine of
this whole Kingdoms had it not pleased Almighty God, by
inspiring the King's most Excellent Majesty with a Divine
Spiritt to interpret some darke phrases of a letter shewed to
his Majesty above and beyond all ordinary Construccion,
thereby miraculously discovering this hidden Treason not
many bowrs before the appointed tyme, for the execution
thereof : Therefore the King's most Excellent Majestie the
lordes spiritual! and Temporal', and all his Majestie's faith-
full and lovinge Subjects DOE MOST JUSTLY AC-
KNOWLEDGE THIS GREATE AND INFINITE
BLESSING TO HAVE PROCEEDED MERELY
FROM GOD HIS GREAT MERCY, AND TO HIS
MOST HOLY NAME DOE ASCRIBE ALL THE
HONOUR GLORY-AND PRAISE. And to the end this
unfained thankfullness may never be forgotten, but be had
in a perpetual Remembrance that all ages to come may yeeld
Praises to his Divine Majestic for the same and have in me-
mory this joyful Day of deliverance.
"BE l'f THEREFORE ENACTED by the King's
most Excellent Majestie the lordes Spiritual! and temporall
and the Comons in the present Parliament assembled and by

MIGHTIE GOD THANKES FOR THIS MOST HAP-
PY DELIVERANCE. And that all and every person and
persons inhabiting within this Realme of England and the
Dominions of the same, shall aiwaise uppon that day dili-
gently and faithfully resort to the Parishe Church or Chappell

the tyme of the said Prayers Preaching or other Service of

_
" And because all and cverie Person may be put in mynde

We must not forget to remind our friends that the annual
meeting of the Operative Protestant Association will be held
to-night, in the Royal Amphitheatre. Mr. M'Neile will
pr: side.

The Frankfort Journal states that the Prince Von Lich-
tenstein, who served in Spain under Don Carlos, is about to
proceed from Berlin to Syria, where he is to have a command
in the Turkish army.

The Queen was slightly indisposed on Sunday last, but we
arc eow happy to say that her Majesty is quite recovered.
THE DUKE OF ORLEANS.—Louis Philippe is fortunate in
his family. They are the finest that Europe has seen since
the memorable promenades of the sons and daughters of the
excellent George 111. on the terrace of Windsor—perhaps
the handsomest assemblage of youth and beauty frOrn one
parentage ever known. The Duke of Orleans is now thirty :
he is tall, and though of a rather slight figure, well made and
graceful in his movements. His countenance is handsome.
He is also an accomplished person, speaks English and some
other languages with fluency, and is very well informed on
the general topics of the time. Without takit
the politics of the legislature, and indeed

any part In

keep•

ing aloof from all opposition to the throne (a rare circum-
stance among heirs-apparent), he performs in some cle-
-

the office of a vieer4—sonietimes attending the armies,
sometimes making progres;•es through Frine,.. and on all oc-
casions ready to be present wherever either übiic tumult or
the royal will demands the activity of an intriligent and
manly protector of the peace of the kingdom.—Blackwood.

EXTENSIVE COMBINATION IN THE NORTH OF GER-
MANY.—There exists in the north of Germany a society of
working masons, which is most completely and extensively
organised. The chiefs are renewed every mouth, and are in
correspondence with e, ery town In At Dantzie all
those masons who refuse to enter into this soci

laid and beat with bludgeons; so a:so with those who refuse
to contribute to the current charges. if a ii,ason has com-
plaints to prefer against his master, he addresses him; elf to
the society, whereupon a self-constituted tribunal assembles,
nd the complainant is usually successful. Two workmen
proceed to the residence of the party sentenced by the tri-
bunal, and summon him to pay from 10 to 20 crowns. If he
refuse, an anathema is issued. aga:nst him, and no one will
afterwards work for him. Whole cities have been subjected
to an interdict when a misunderstanding has arisen between
the master-masons and their workmen ; and no German city.
however powerful, can escape from the effects of the anathema
when once it is pronounced. Thus the city of Hamburgh
has been forced to buy its exemption recently from the ope-
ration of an interdict for the sum of 500 crowns. One city
is judged by three other cities, whose condemnation involves
it in the necessity of paying damages. Att the present mo-
ment some workmen who continued their labour at Ham-
burgh during the period of the interdict are obliged to pay
a fine of 15 crowns each man. The amount of these fines is
spent by the body of workmen forming the combination.
Berne was anathematized ; but the civic authorities imme-
diately took proceedings against all extern masons then resi-
dent in the city, and a general order has been issued for
their departure by a particular day. Hanover, Lubeck, and
Schwerin also pronounced the condemnation ofthese societies,
and energetic measures are everywhere being adoPted to
combat them.—Leipsic Gazette.
