lFRoM THE REGULAR CORRESPONDENT OF THE TRIBUNE.
PARIS June -Monsgnor Freppel has not ye
made his debut as a parliamentary orator. 1t was
expected that he would intervene yesterday IN the
discussion the budget Of the Minister
OF Public Worship. There full
gathering to listen to his maiden speech.
But the Right Reverend Deputy, who is Bishop Of
Anglers and representative of the Port Of Brest,
made default. 1t was said in the waitiDg-room by
his friends that be was suffering from laryngitis
and returned home from the Church of the Made
leine, where he had offciated at the
! Bearn-Valery wedding, too much indis-
J posed to think of speaking in the Chamber
have never known instance in this country Of a
| churchman making mark in the tribune. Lacor-
dare utterly broke down in the delivery of his
maiden speech, in the National Assembly which
met in 1S4S. An interruption threw him on his
back, and he was unable to get on
his feet again MOnsignor Dupanloup made bet
ter figure. Still he at best a bad debater. His
high fights of oratory turgid. He easily lost
the thread of his discourse, and when he went to
pick it up his ideas got all in tangle The habit Of
speaking from pulpit to the congre CATION, which
must respectfully listen, spoils Of learning
BILE to be hooted. acclaimed, questioned, pulled up
and badgered by such men as Comte Donyille de
Maillefeu and II. Robert Mitchell.
The debate yesterday was one in which Monsg-
nor Freppel had direct interest. Il bore Oh the
proposed reduction Of the salaries Of the French
cardinals and prelates to the incomes stip-
ulated in the cOncOrdat. These incomes were
by Royal and Imperial DEGREES augmented In
the reigns Of Louis XVIII. Charles x, and
Louis Napoleon. Compared to the pay
drawn by English archbishops, bishops
and DEANS they wretchedly mean but
they were enough TO enable wifelcss and childless
elderly gentlemen to keep up state and com
Portable bouses in provincial towns. The reduction
made is in the proportion of third in the salary Of
bishop and onehaf in that of an archbishop If the
French eplscopacy during the last ten years had
kept ont of the political arena this would not have
happened
