From the annual address of this Society we ex-
tract the following paragraphs on the
DECLINE OF PAPAL POWER.
The present state of the Papal Power, as COM
pared with its former SELF is greatly reduced.
In Europe many countries have become Protest
ant and thrown off her yoke. In Austria are more
than three and a half millions of Protestants. In
France are many Piotestants who are protected by
law, and the annual Papal revenue has SUNK since
the revolution, from thirty to about twenty mil
lions Of dollars.
In Sardinia, the reigning monarch has gone
steadily onward in the reformation of Papal abuses,
and maintains his way at the risk OF excommtni-
cation. Religious liberty is granted there to all
denominations.
In Tuscany, much dsafection exists toward the
Papacy, aud in Florence alone, more than 5000
persons failed to come forward at the Easter Com
munion.
Popedom. The King has openly and firmly re-
sisted the Jesuits, and shown some independence
of the Vatican.
In Spain, tie waning of Rome's power is unrnis-
takeabe. The government has stood firmly by its
act of confscating the conventual property, and
has gone forward in the reformation of some other
abuses.
E In our own hemisphere, it has lost the Canadas
the valley of the Mississippi, the Floridas, Texas
and part of Mexico, which have succeeded to Pro-
testant governments.
In Brazil, Chill, and Central America, liberal
sentiments are advancing, while New Grenada,
Venezuela, and the Argentine Republic, have for
maly proclaimed liberty of worship.
In Mexico the rebellion headed by the Romsh
priesthood has been crushed by President Comon-
fort, and The estates of the Church comiscated to
the amount of about .ftiy milhions of dollars.
In the Protestant portions of Christendom .
great change is going on in public opinion in re-
spect to Romanism.
wider spread and moro effective feeling now
obtains in evangelical circles in Europe on these
topics, than has been obtained since the Reforma-
ton. Hn
In the United States there is more feeling in
respect to them than ever before. Various things
have conspred to produce this. Prominent among
the nstrumentaties which effected it, is the Ame-
rican and Foreign Christian Union They have
besn aided, however, by the discussions forced
upon some State Legislatures, and even upon Con-
gress, and by the correspondence Of Prof Morse,
with Bishop Spalding, of Kentucky, and Senator
Brooks with Archbishop Hughes, of New York.
