aioseg their own body two judges or leaders, who
maintained strict order, and to whom punctual obe-
&soca was paid. One of them, who Ind been a
schoolmaster in hie own country, heists requested to
explain the cause of their vesication, at last said, that
their consciences had been wounded by violations of
the seciest Lutheran doctrine, by forciug upon them
changes in the Belief end Liturgy. Their aversion
to Ibis constraint mss shown, be said, by a thousand
families, who were silo on the point of emigrating.—
This complaint made with onsespitioes frankness,
appeared to many persons quite inconceivable, con.
Adoring the well-known orthodox muniments and
firmness of many distinguished Divines of Tobiegen
and Stutgard, and the liberality of the King of Wit.
Lemberg; and it was therefore resolved, by giving
publicity to this circumstance, to obtain, it possible,
some mere satisfactory information. [This is coo.
tamped in the follosiag articIe:—]WIRTINIIRIO, Just 23.—We have aWs Liter.
gy. Only this is tree ; It was substituted for one
which was truly out of date, and which could no
longer satisfy the greater part even of the less en.
lightened. Not that we have a new Liturgy, but that
we did not have it till about 10 years ego, may,
perhaps, be a reproach to the beads of our Erosion-
en Church. It was, la truth, received with approba-
tion. Of above 800,000 Protestants in the kingdom
of Wiriemberg, there were scarcely 400, who belong
to the class of gloomy Pietist', ehoi soon after the
appearance of the new Liturgy, joined to cache dis-
like to it. They complained, that in the Order of
Baptism no mention was made of the Devil. Amis.
tomed to indulge the consciences of the weak, our
King, io concert with the opiness of the Evan-
gelic Consistary, has permitted that, whenever in-
dividuals may desire it, use may be made in lisp-
tine of the question of the old Liturgy where the
Devil is mentioned. Coo this be called oppression
of the conscience and religious constraint ? Bet
these gloomy devotees were not satisfied with this
indulgence; they went further, and demanded
the entire restoration of the old Liturgy.-
Whoa they found that the better part would not be
given op, for the sake of a few misled men, they
threatened to emigrate, unless they were allowed to
form separate politico-religions communities.

LONDON:

SATUIDAT. JOLT 10, 11110.

The House of Lorded' this day in order I. 'm-
alts the remaining besieges of Parliament ; and pre.
potations commenced yesterday to receive the Puttees
RLGUIT, who is 'greeted to go 111 state on Teesday
nest to protegee the Parliament bye speech from the
Throne. Previous to this some down of Bills will
be paced by Commission, that his Royal Highness
may have the less trooble on the oceasioo. As the
locum fences of his Majesty has so seldom graced the
Royal Throne in this way since his investment with
the Regency, the Ladies espress a great desire to
witness the solemn proceeding, sod no doubt will
flock to assist at it.

Mr. f3aocauaw mast derive greet satisfaction from
the spirit of enquiry which his endeavours to correct
abuses in Charitable Foundations his Incited. It has
given • confidence to private individuals to commeni-
cite to the Law Officers of the Crown the stele of the
Foundation Schools, end other endowed Charities, in
their neigbbourhooda ; sod the prompt attention which
their applications received from the late ATTORMET.
GENERAL, whose successor is infleenced by the saese
feeling, there is no doubt bat that in a very few years,
1 those eacelleot institetioos will be pet on such a fool-
ing as to preclude in future any chance of abuse In,
and misapplication of, their fends, especially in those
towns and boroughs which send Members to Parlia-
ment ; for in many of them, we're sorry to find, the
beneficent intentions of the pious and ruttiest per-
sons who endowed theseestablishments have been too
frequently perverted, and used either for the pur-
poses of correlation at elections, or to intimidate op-
richt iodivideets, who would not become the tools er
minions of the patrons of such places, and sacrifice
their opinions and independence to promote the pe-
missy gain and advantsge of the former !

no secret nor supernatural information on this serious,
and solemn topic ; but knowing time d° that men aro the
same crueler', naturally every where. and in all Bondi-
dons of life, save end except the Influence of educa-
tion and custom, we feel convinced that no power, no,
threats will prevent the■ from attempting le rotator
their rights, when they ere folly convinced that no
measures are observed with, nor concern taken ghost,
them. If reason will not recover them, force will be
tried ; and in this dreadful straggle we have often eo•
deareered to remind the Aristocracy, (they have for-
gotten the very recent lesson in France,) that
the richest Dune in England is not (though sir.
rounded by a doyen tackles io livery) so strong a
man as a dealer in old clothe' ; for hie very wealth
weaken. the former, while the strong and in-
dubitable aisles of ►is rights el a man renders
the latter doubly powerfel.—Who stands In
ne►d of being told that the late Duke of Oats ;Ns,
doting the French Revolution, would have cast off
the invidiousness of his birth from the odium
thrown on the Privileged Class, by impugning the
very virtue or fidelity of his own mother !! Ii the
Aristocracy will not esert themselves from sympathy,
nor take warning from 'sample, they will deserve
the less pity, whatever mischiefs may beat them

from the neglected and inforiata beings who aro now

inhibition of bags, whether green •r blot, sill do

The Paris Papers of Wednesday arrived this morn-
ing. The discussion of the Budget is at length con-
cluded in the Chamber of Deputies. The sae total
of income for the year 1819 is aged at 891,433,000 of
francs. The Chamber appears to have been glad to
get rid of this tiresome subject, for when the Pant-
DENT asatteatial that they were abo.t to proceed to
the scrutiny, his information was welcomed by gene.
rat acclamations. Of 175 votes, 170 were given la
the Projet, and only five against it.
