THE REFoRMERs.-We copy the follow
ing from the London Weekly Register:
Catholics ought to look kindly on the
labors of archaeological societies. They
tend to rub off the gilt and holy JUNCTION
which three centuries have thrown over
Reformation times in Protestant eyes. At
late meeting of the Essex Archaeological
Society, Mr.. III. w. King, the honorable
secretary, read o paper entitled Invento-
ries and Assignments of Church Goods at
South Veal and Brentwood" in the time
of Edward vi. In his Introductory obser-
walton, the reader of the paper apparently
could not help giving utterance to the ideas
that had forced themselves upon him whilst
making his antiquarian researches. In
the days of Edward VI" says he, ga COM
mission was issued for the purpose, as was
intended to appear, of obtaining list of
Church property, but the real object of
that commission was to despoil the Church
of her property, and fill the empty Golfers
of the kings exchequer. 1t was no desire
for reformed religion that led to the
gain thirst for the riches she possessed.
If road wanted repairing, or any local
matter wanted to have Il little mo- ey cx-
pended upon it, the parishioners did not
hesitate to sell portion of the Church
property for the purpose. Not untrequently
! the bells were seized, and, in one instance,
the locks of the church were sold for forty
shifiings, one half of which were given to n
number of mountcbauks as a reward for
playing before the people on Sunday. All
manner of spoliation was carried on in this
| way, and without any regard whatever to
reformation in religious worship, the COM
missioners being very often the despoilers."
To hear such strong language i'll the mouth
of Protestant, one would think Mr.. Cob
bett had risen up again. No wonder the
society above mentioned complain of the
little sympathy they receive from the cler.
gy, and Of their unwillingness to yield In
formation respecting the records Of thei
churches.
