At twenty-fourpast eight o'clock on the 6th he died. The
premiership, therefore, lapses to M. Von Manteuffel, in
whom it had been temporarily invested during the illness
of the Duke.

POPISH MOVEMENT AGAINST EUROPEAN PROTES-
TANTISM.—The following remarkable intelligence we ex-
tract from the Morning Herald :—" Persons well ac-
quainted with the state of feeling in Germany affirm that
there is a religious. sentiment at the root of the move-
ments which agitate that country, of which sufficient
notice has not been taken. The Univers has spoken out.
Tt announces to the world the advent of a new thirty
years war in Germany, to terminate this time, according
to the prophet of the Univers, in the extinction of Pro-
testantism in the centre of Europe. It is impossible
(says this writer) for the two principles to subsist together
—one or the other must be destroyed. Protestantism
must be put down by force of arms, and will be put
down. Should the Bavarians, Wurtembergers, and
Austrians enter Hesse at one side and the Prussians at
the other, the combat, should such take place, would at
once assume the complex form of a politico-religious war
between Popish despotism on one side and Protestant
constitutionalism on the other. Let us thank the Uni-
vers for throwing off the mask and dealing with the same
audacious candour with reference to Germany that the
Pope has just shown in regard to England. It is well
that the people of England will henceforth know, from
the organ of Roman Catholic priesthood, that the time is
supposed to have arrived for the extinction of Protes-
tantism in the land of Luther by arming the south against
the north."

POLITICAL

MISCELLANY.

It is said that Lord Stan 40
ley, of Alderley, will still
retain his post of Under-Secretary of State.
The Hon. B. Beilby Lawley, the eldest son of Lord
Wenlock, is a candidate for the representation of Ponte-
fract.

Lord Palmerston and Sheriff Alison are to be brought
forward as candidates for the Lord Rectorship of Glas-
gow University at the election which takes place on
Friday next.

The Gazette, of Friday, publishes the treaty of peace,
amity, commerce, and navigation, signed between her
Britannic Majesty and the Dominican Republic, at Santo
Domingo, March 6. Ratifications exchanged at Santo
Domingo, March 10.

Lord Palmerston has addressed a letter to the Greenock
Chamber of Commerce, in answer to its memorial urging
the suppression of the slave trade, expressing his concur-
rence in its views, and assuring the Chamber that the
question continues to occupy the anxious attention of the
Government.

GUY FAWKES ON 'CHANGE.—The Morning Herald,
giving an account of the money market of Tuesday, says,
" The members of the house were a good part of the day
occupied with the representations of Guy Fawkes, the
Pope, and Dr. Wiseman, the titular Bishop of West-
minster—all of them being torn to pieces amidst the exul-
tation of the inmates. We notice this subject as a mani-
festation of feeling which has not been paralleled on the
sth of November for many years past." [Similar mani-
festations took place in the stock exchange of this town.]

ANOTHER SPECIMEN OF POPISH INTOLE-
RANCE.

Pio Nono appears resolved to show to the world that he
is not the feeble and harmless old man which some of
our Romanizing and liberal friends in this count

the spiritual one is wielded with 'all7l;esvTionr of the
popes of old. ' Though he cannot control, unassisr,
his own rebellious subjects, he can lay •sovereig
empires under ban, as in the days when the thum.._
the Vatican were dreaded and obeyed throughout Chris-
tendom. Let the following paragraph, copied from the l overholding
Times of Saturday, bear -witness that Popery is still un- "-
changed, insolent, and ambitious of power as ever:—
•` According to a telegraphic despatch of the 31th ult., frorr
Ttfrin, the Commune Italiano states, that the Pope has P—
municated the King of Sardinia, his ministers

ness's pleasure, the laws by which the people are to be
governed ! How long may we he, if we resist not the
