il did among the builders OF Babel, and
the scholars improve in nothing more
than in mischief. Thus days, W. ks and

Now we could ask (and with snme en-.

cumstances, men Of talents and abilities
will engage in this business, unless from

not call aloud for Legislative redress.
With great justice the legislature has
thought proper to regulate the learned
professions. The health and lives of men
are equally guarded by restraining igno-

tice. The property of men is considered
of too much importance TO be tri!led with
and hence the restrictions on the probes.

Of our youth, Thing of as much if not
greater Importance than either, is left to
the blind direction of chance. The fact
is, education has been hitherto consider
ed in private rather that public point
of view.
Finally, we would ask, whether the
mode OF education adopted in our country
is calculated for the genius of republi-
can government. Monarchical govern,
ment may sub.ist by force, and the pre-
ponderating influence Of power. Aris,o-
cracy may exist with due degree of pill
ancy and favor among the nobility, and
by exercising oppression over the people.
But, If we are to believe the great Mon
tesQuieu, republican government can
subsist only by the virtue and integrity of
the people.

JUNE. 1905.
REVEREND BRETHREN,
SINCE the FIRST moment of our return
from France TO this city, We have a.deSt-
ly desired, reverend brethren, TO assemble
youin Consistoria Council, in order that we
may make known to you our true design
and object in making that Journey, for the
purpose of decorating our most dear son
in Christ, Napoleon, with the ensigns of
imperial dignity, and to communicate TO
you, without delay, the salutary conse-
quences, which By the blessing OF God,
have resulted 10 US from chat journey.
Nevertheless, we are not yet fully able 10
crafty those our anxious wishes, because
various matters relative to the churches,
respecting VIII ch we had made proposili-
ons, have not yet been settled, nor have
the examinations of the Bishops, on whom
those churches ought to be conferred, been
yet completed. We, however, congratu-
late ourselves in being able TO communi-
cate with you this day so near the solemn
festival Of the holy apostles PETER and
PAUL, in order that, alter having describ-
ed the benefits we have experienced chief
ly by their holy assistance, we may pro-
coed 10 celebrate the memory of those
glorious martyrs, with pie,y the more
ardent, and with souls OVERLOOKING with
gratitude.
The I'd day Of November last year, we
departed from Rome. You will remcm-
Der, on that OCCASION, the feryent wishes
expressed by the Roman people for our
welfare and the numbers, who, inspired
by holy affection for our persons, accom-
panied US many miles on our route. These
exalted IN our breast the Eveliest emoii-
ons of paternal love, and were considered
By US as an auspicious omen, for the sue
cess of Our journey.
On the frontiers Of Etruria, and more
particularly on our arrival al Florence, we
are unable to express the satisfaction we
then felt, on beholding such concourse,
such myriads Of people, who came TO We
btlNit1 W dt nhthuiC pCiSDb, vac SuICSS-
sor of St. Peter, and the Vicar Of Christ
on earth. Among the foremost to shew
us marks Of veneration, was our daughter
in Christ, Maria Louis, queen of Etruria,
who not only, 10 the most solemn manner,
manifested her pious affection for us, but
intreated US to take the opportunity Of con-
fcrring the sacrament OF confirmation on
her dear son, Louis, king Of EIruria.
This sacred ceremony vas solemnized
with appropriate msgni6cence, aud We
had 10 admire on the occasion, in common
with all present, the becoming pieiy ofthe
mother and the son.
In continuing our progress ihro' Italy,
we received The most consoling proofs Of
general vereration for our sacred nntsi-
ons, as well as attachment to our person,
