ENGLAND AND THE INQuIsIrroS. The
spirit Of enterprise 10 England grew with
the reformation. Merchant companies
opened trade with Russia and the Levant
adventurous sea captains went TO Guinea
for gold. Sir Hugh Willoughby followed
the phantom OF the north west passage
turned eastward around the North Cape
to look for it, and persisted in the ice.
English commerce was beginning to grow /;
but new and definitely dangerous ele-
ment had been introduced by the change
Of religion into the relations Of English
sailors with the Catholic powers, and
especially with Spain.
In their zeal to keep out heresy, the
Spanish government placed their harbors
under the control OF the Holy Office Any
vessel in which heretical book was
found was confiscated, and her crew car
ried TO the Inquisition pristons. 1t had be-
gun In Henry's time. The Inquisitors
attempted to treat schism ~ heresy, and
arrest Englishnen in their ports. But
Henry spoke up stoutly to Charles V, and
the Holy Office had been made to hold
it's hand.
All was altered now. II was not neces-
sary that poor sailor should have been
found teaching heresy. 1t was emo ugh
II he had an English bible and prayer
book with him 10 his kit. Stories would
come into Dartmouth or Plymouth how
some lad that everybody knew-Bill, or
Jack, or Tom, who had wife or father or
mother among them, perhaps-had
been seized bold Of for no other crime,
been flung into dungeon, tortured,
starved, set to work in the galleys, or
burned 10 FOOLS cost, as they called it,
at an auto do Je at Seville.
The object Of the Inquisition was part
ly political; it was meant TO embarsss
trade and make the people impatient OF
changes which produced so much incon-
venience. The effect was exactly the
opposite. Such &C counts, when brought
home, created fury, and there grew up in
the seafaring population an enthusiasm
of hatred for that Holy Inquisition, and q
passionate desire for revenge --Frouds,
in Longman's Magazine.
BRAziL. Admiral Melio will be beaten
in Brazil, lie has never had any proper
sympathy 80 far as we can ascertain. The
fight in Brazil seems to be factional
fight between the navy and the govern
ment with which the government for
three months, and his cause is wan
ing cause. There is no popular uprising
among the people against the govern ment.
Mello has no backing whatever from
any body of the people in any part Of
the country. He must therefore surely
fail.
The indictments in Rio Grande do Sui
do not seem to have made common cause
with Mello. The people OF Brazil have
refused to take part in Mellc's revolt
Every state. with q single exception, de-
clared it's loyalty to the government on
the 10th ult., when the fourth, anniver-
sary Of the proclamation Of the republic
was celebrated, and the one stats which
failed to make this declaration was Santa
Catharina, whose capital, DesteYro, had
just been seized by Mello's fleet.
The present prospect is that Mello's
fleet will be beaten, captured or dispersed
by the fleet the Brazilian government is
assembling against it. Mello has lost his
best ironclsd, the Javary. and his down
fall can not be far off.-Seattle Post-Intel
ligencer.
