CHAP. XIX.
Formaliies obserred in the I:Yuisuion.
When person is arrested by the lnqul-
sition, he is first asked his name, and pro.
fession or quality, and is then required to
render an accurate statement of all his ef-
fects. To induce him to do this the more
readily, he is assured, in the name of Jesus
Christ. that if he is innocent all that he shall
so declare will be faithfully returned TO
him; but otherwise, even though he should
be acquitted, such articles as may be dis
covered to belong to him, and not included
in the lis, will be confscated. From the
universal pre- possession entertained OF The
sanctity and integrity Of this tribunal, it
frequently happens, that a person whose
conscience reproaches him with no crime,
and gives him no reason to doubt Il at his
innocence will be acknowledged, and his
liberty consequently restored, without hes.
iation exposes his most private and impor.
tant concerns.
1t is not, however, without some plausi-
btv, that the pubic mind is prejudiced in
favor of this Tribunal; which considered
externally only, dispcnses justice with more
lenity and charity, than any oher known
Jurisdiction. Those who voluntarily be.
come their own accusers ; and testify their
repentance before they are apprehended,
are allowed TO be at large, without fear Of
imprisonment. 1t is true, that those who
do not accuse themselves until after their
arrest, are deemed guilty and are condemn.
ed as such; but no one is sentenced to any
temporal punishment extending to death,
who is not clearly conyicted. Two or
three Witnesses only, as in lay Jurisdictions,
are here considered too few for conviction
and, though two Witnesses are sufficient to
obtain an order for PERSONS apprehen-
sion, seven at least are necessary for his
condemnation. However palpabe his guilt,
Or enormous the offence, the Holy Office
is satisfied with the ecclesiastical enalty of

bic to the civil courts, if he confesses his
crime, he is, for the FIRST time, exempt from
all temporal and corporal punishment.

reaty.

Corn PREsERvERs.-We have been told

100 turkeys, and takes some care to drive
them upon his corn and wheat fields 10 des-
