ucli is not the source from which it emanat

tnlont

er is a young nobleman of

hi,h character and

)rters are the representatives of no

t of the youthful intellect of the empire

young England"

—and it excites in us,

therefore, serious and strong misgivings with re-
t to the extent to which a body of men, upon

whose Conservative faithfulne,

may one day de-

pend much of the stability of the Protestant institu-
tions of their country, have been corrupted by false
doctrines, and urged towards the adoption of those
insidious practices and opinions, which lead ulti-
mately to the setting up once more of popery in
this realm.

Lord John proposed that the restrictions which
the statute of Mortmain places in the way of testa-
mentary endowments of religion should he with-
drawn ; and he urges this as the remedy to he
applied for the relief of the existing distress and dis-
satisfaction throughout the country ! Rebellion is
rife in one portion of the empire. A physical force
movement is defying the power of the executive in
another. Religious controversy is agitating Scot-
land, whilst in England commerce and manufactures
are languishing, and a large portion of our working
population are threatened with deprivation of em-
ployment for their labour. The remedy for these
evils is the establishment of monastic institutions
throughout the land! Unfetter, exclaims his lord-
ship, private benevolence ! Allow enthusiasts and
idiots to found nunneries and build abbeys and
priories, in the building of which the labour of the
working classes may be absorbed, and in which
pious men and women may devote themselves to the
task of telling their beads, worshipping the saints,
adoring the Virgin, and inoculating the minds of the
surrounding population with the novelties and phan-
tasies of the new Rome which is springing up at Ox-
ford, and which has already succeeded in deluding
so large a portion of " young England."
We repeat, we should treat such a proposition
with unqualified ridicule, if it emanated from feeble-
minded women, or from men who had survived the
power of usefulness or enjoyment in the world. But
when we see it advanced by men in the vigour of in-
tellect—by men upon whose minds the lessons of
history cannot have fallen unobserved—by men upon
whose minds the fruits of travel, and the experience
of such institutions in other cannot reasonably
he supposed to have exercised no effect—we are
compelled to believe that it is deliberately designed,
and designed with method too, as a means to an
end; and that such end is the restoration of this
country, by the gradually inclining path of Tracta-
rianism, to the embrace of Rome herself. We see
in it all the cunning of the serpent, and the danger
of too close an approach within the sphere of his
fascination.

For what serious fetters does the law of Nlortmain
now impose upon private benevolence ? If such be-
nevolence wishes to endow an hospital, a college, or
a church, the way is open to do so. The statute of
Morimain checks no such effort more than is ne-
cessary to prevent religious delusion. It will not
permit monastic institutions, in possession of lands,
to grow up amongst us. It interferes with the work-
ing of the confessional. It protects deluded peni-
tents in their last hours from the machinations of
their priestly tyrants and deluders ; hut it does no
more : and no churchman—none at least who wishes
to see his church any other than a reflection of
Rome—can wish for its erasure from the statute
book. And if men or women, in their Tractarian
zeal, wish to devote themselves to seclusion or to
works of charity, they can do so. The law of Mort-
main does not stay them. It does this, however.
It checks the growth of selfish, and desiging, and

aggrandisement-seeking monasticism. It is an es-
toppal to the march of popery ; and on this plea,
we fear, it is that " young England," which perhaps
might be more appropriately designated "YOUNG
RONIE," seeks its removal from her path to supre-

macy !

The public will have perceived within the last

week, upon the walls of our town, a placard put fo

ward by the working classes, affected under the pro-
visions of the Fire Prevention Bill, complaining,
amongst other matters, of the provision which coin-

pels every porter employed in any of the warehouses
of Liverpool to wear a distinctive badge, as the evi-
dence of his having been licensed according to the
act. In the radical papers of the week are to be
found also reports of a meeting of the same body of
men upon the subject, by the speakers at which very
strong language appears to have been used, and the
imputation directly conveyed that the clauses re-
lating to such " badges" are the prompting of certain
occupiers of warehouse property, and have been de-
liberately designed by them to affix a mark of slavery
upon the working classes of the town.
