Protestant Marriages in Catholic
Countries.

The spirit of the Roman Catholic Church may
be best ascertained by the conduct Of its poten-
tates in countries where it predominates. In these
countries the church gives the law and governs
with despotic power in the most trivial civil af-
fairs. An incident has recently happened In Bra
iii which illustrates the despotism OF thu. church
in Catholic countries. There are in Brazil large
colonies of Protestant Germans, but the Catholic
clergy are the real rulers. A Protestant female,
who had married German, recently abjured her
faith in the presence Of the Bishop Of Rio, and
embraced the Catholic religion. Shortly after
wards, she applied to the Bishop for authorization
to contract another marriage with Brazilian be-
longing to the Roman Catholic church. The Bish-
op acceded to her request because-jt is a note
communicated to the journals BY the Bishop him
self which go expresses it the marriage of this
woman with Protestant German was evidently
null, having been celebrated against the rule of
the Council of Trent, published as law and always
observed in Brazil. What gives especial import
ance to the conduct and the doctrine of the Bish-
op of Rio is, that, in Brazil the clergy are the
depository of the acts Of the State, and that The
DEGREES Of the Council of Trent being taken for
the exclusive test of the validity Of marriages,
there is no longer any stability in the civil condi.
ton Of Protestants, whose marriages, not anthem
ticated or legally recognized, can always be dis
solved at the pleasure Of one of the parties, when
ever that party chooses to abjure the Protestant
faith.-LouisViIe Journal,

VERY TRUE AND WELL SAID.--There are natu.
raj laws which govern individuals, communities,
and nations, which cannot be set aside with i'm
punity; punishment for breaking them will surely
follow as night follows day. One Of these laws is
selfprotection. The man who fails to look after
his own interest win be likely to die pauper.
The nation that fails to protect its own industry
will be The prey of all other nations, and the
effect of such neglect will continue 10 be felt al
