! Bishop Jewel in letter to a Venetian
gentleman stating his objections 10 tbe
council of Trent, amongst many others, men
ons and states the oatbs which The BIsh>
ops in that council took to the Pope, who,
by his legates presided over it, and who
wholly governed il and directed its proceed
ings. This assertion is confirmed by a let
ter of Duditius, Bishop who was men,
bcr and also ambassador Of the Emperor
in that council. The letter was addressed
TO Maximilian the I'd. "The Holy Ghost"
saith he, "bad nothing TO do in this Assem-.
bly,. All the codnsels given there proceed
ed from human policy, and tended only to
maintain the Pope's immoderate and shame.
fsl domination. Answers were expected
from thence (Rome) as if from Delphis or
Dodona. From thence truly that Holy Spir-
it, who they boast presides over their de-
liberations, was sent in porlmantesu of
currier Qnclusus maniicis Tabularii)-no-
thing could be established which the Bish-
ops ordained. unless the Pope might become
the author of it,"
The oath taken by the Bishops 10 the
Pope in the council of Trent as find il IN
Bishop Jewels letter is as follows: 81. N.
C. will bear true faith to St. Peter, and to
the Holy Apostolic Church, to my Lord the
Pope N. and his successors that shall enter
economically. Will not be means, either
by word or deed, that he may loose either
life or member, or be taken prisoner. I
will not reveal any counsel that he shall
impart to me, either by letters or message
which may be to his damage. / will be a
helper to defend the papacy Of the Roman
Church, and TO maintain the rules of the
Holy Fathers against all the world" The
Bishops letter was written in Latin. Be-
sides this oath taken by the Bishops in the
council of Trent, there IS also another oath
which all Bishops used TO take, and which
| have seen, securing their allegiance TO the
Pope, part of which oath is found 10
book written by Barlow Bishop of LIN
coin, in which by many quotations from the
canon law and Pope's decretals, he estab.
fishes the fact Of their claims of superiori-
ty over the civil power
If the foregoing historical facts and quo.
tations from Popes and Pop,sh writers BE-
true, have We not cause to look well TO the
civil rights and liberties of the country that
they may be preserved from all foreign in
reference, of what kind soever it may be,
and from what quarter soever it may be at
tempted' Let those amongst US who think
that the DEGREES and doctrines of the Ro-
man Hierarchy have become obsolete or
have been repealed or set aside by tho
Popes and Court of Rome, or by any &C.
knowedged authority in that Church 90
called, and we shall then agree with them,
but until they do that, We are constrained
to believe that they still hold to the senti-
ments advanced and claimed by Popish Es-
cesiastics IN former times.

Memento Rings.

Heroes, philosophers, poets-indeed,n n sn
Of all classes, leave remembrance in the
shape of rings. The will OF Washington
contains this: ITO my sisters-in-law,
Hannah Washington and Mildred Washing.
ton, TO my friends, Eleanor Stuart, Hannah
Washington, of Fairfield, and Elizabeth
Washington Of Hayfeld, give each q
mourning ring Of The value of one hundred
dollars. These bequests are not made for
the intrinsic value OF them, but as memsn-
toes of my esteem and regard" Shakespeare
bequeaths such tokens to several friends
among, them, to his brother players,
whom he calls my poor fellows" "twenty
shlllings eight pence apiece to buy them
rings" Pope bequeathed sums of FIVE
pounds to friends, who were to lay them
out in rings. This great poet was no ad.
mirer of funerals that blackened all the way,
or of gorgeous tombs: "As to my body my
will is, that it be buried near the monu.
ment of my dear parents at Twickenham,
with the addition after the words flius
fecu of these only, Ell sibis Qui obiit
anno IT,, ,otaiis-and that it be carried to the
grave by six of the poorest men OF the par.
ish, 10 each of whom | order suit of gray
coarse cloth as mourning"
The affection which Dir. Johnson bore 10
the memory Of his wife was pretty point
in his heavy character: "March %, 1853.
I kept this day as the anniversary of my
Letty's death. with prayer and tears in the
morning. In the evening | prayed for
her condtionalIy, if it were lawful" Her
wedding-ring, when she became his wife.
was, aftel her death, preserved by him az
long as he lived, with an afectionate care
in little round wooden box, and in the in.
side of which he pasted slip of paper
thus inscribed by him in fair characters:

Mortua, eheu!
Mart. II, 1852.
Husbands can love, where friends NAV
see nothing 10 admire Mrs. Johnson has
been summed up as perpetual ,llness and
perpetual opium"
Lord Eldon wore a mourning ring for
his wife. In his will we find this: "And
direct that may be buried in the same
tomb at Kingston in which my most below.
ed wife is buried, and as near TO her re-
mains as possible and desire that the
ring which wear on my finger may be
put with my body into my coffin and be
buried with me-"
The last gilt Of Tom Moore's mother to
him was her wedding ring: "Have been
preparing my dear mother for my leaving
her, now that see her so much BETTER
She is quite reconciled to my going; and
said this morning, Now, my dear Tom,
don't let yourself be again alarmed about
me in this manner, nor hurried away from
your house and business She then said
she must, before | left her this morning.
give me her wedding ring as her last gift
and accordingly sending for the little trim
ket box in which she kept it, she herself,
put the ring on my finger. From History
