Mr. Muntz has called attention to the remarkable fact that the manufacturing interest gobbles up a farmer
for its supper every night. And Mr. George Frederick Young has vowed at the London Tavern that his
neck shall not be bent to the yoke "unresistingly," which seems to promise a tough job to the manufacturing
interest if it thinks of gobbling up Mr. Young. However, there is no saying now-a-days what any amount
of resistance is worth, seeing that it needs but a square inch of damp sponge to bring even a grizzly bear
of the Rocky Mountains under the knife of an operator as merciless as a Bright or a Cobden.

An incident of the month, which deserves record in even this brief retrospect, has been the defeat of the
Tenant League agitation in Ireland, at the election for the county Limerick. It is too decisive to admit of
any doubt. Failing their own candidate, the Leaguers would gladly have assisted the Protectionists, but
the latter was also turned to the right-about, and the Free-trader chosen. This result is important in so
far as it goes very unexpectedly to prove that there is some limit to impracticable and mischievous agitation,
even in Ireland.

NARRATIVE OF POLITICS.

The Repeal Association has been Rebaptised, and is
now denominated the "Royal Catholic and Repeal
Association." In the course of the proceedings on the
2nd, Mr. John O'Connell announced that the word
"Catholic" was to remain as a prefix until the intended
persecution of Lord John Russell and the bigots of
England was effectually repelled. In a financial point
of view the additional cognomen of "Catholic" appears
to have been, so far, a failure, the rent having declined
from £14. odd shillings, the previous week's receipts, to
£9. 19s. Id.

The Enthronement of Cardinal Wiseman took place
on the 6th, at the church of St. George's, Southwark.
The choir commenced chaunting the Hallelujah, and
the procession moved up the nave in the direction of
the central altar. Foremost was borne the cross, with
lighted candles on either side. Then came the Roman
Catholic clergy subject to the new Archdiocesan's
jurisdiction, two by two, habited according to their
respective ranks and orders. At length the Cardinal
himself appeared, wearing a gorgeous mitre and pallium.
A canopy, fringed with silk and gold, was borne
over his path by the "converts" exclusively. Lastly
came the Very Rev. Dr. Doyle, robed in the usual
sacrificial vestments, preceded by the Very Rev. Dr.
Cox, the Rev. Mr. Cotter, and the Rev. Mr. Daniel, as
masters of the ceremony, deacon, and sub-deacon.
Having reached the screen which fronts the sanctuary,
the Cardinal was led to a small compartment at the
left of the principal altar, called the chapel of the
Blessed Eucharist, whence, after a brief interval, the
procession moved within the sanctuary. Cardinal Wiseman
kneeling at the foot of the altar, and the celebrant
clergyman ascending its steps, assisted by the deacon
and sub-deacon. The customary form of prayer having
been read, the mitre, which had been exchanged for a
scarlet cap a short time before, was formally placed
upon the head of the new Archbishop, whilst the
crozier, emblematic of his authority, was also placed in
his hands. He was then conducted to the archiepiscopal
chair, at the foot of which the whole of the clergy made
the usual obeisance—kissing the Cardinal's ring in
recognition of his spiritual authority. The solemnities
of high mass were then proceeded with, after which the
Bull was publicly read, in virtue of which Cardinal
Wiseman assumes the archiepiscopal jurisdiction of
Westminster. The proceedings closed with the
presentation of an address to the new "Archbishop," and
an exhortation, in which he impressed upon his clergy,
the duties and obligations incidental to their important
mission.

The following is a translation of the Papal Bull
establishing a Romish Hierarchy in England. This
important document is entitled "Apostolic Letter of
our Most Holy Lord by Divine Providence Pope Pius
IX., by which the Episcopal Hierarchy in England is
restored."

"Ad perpetuam rei memoriam."

"The power of governing the universal Church
intrusted by our Lord Jesus Christ to the Roman Pontiff,
in the person of St. Peter, Prince of the Apostles, has
maintained for centuries in the Apostolic see the
admirable solicitude with which it watches over the
welfare of the Catholic religion in all the earth, and
provides with zeal for its progress. Thus has been
accomplished the design of its Divine founder; who, by
establishing a chief, has in his profound wisdom insured
the safety of the Church unto the uttermost time.
The effect of this solicitude has been felt in most nations,
and amongst these is the noble kingdom of England.
History proves that after the first ages of the Church,
the christian religion was carried into Great Britain,
where it flourished until towards the middle of the fifth
century: after the invasion of the Angles and Saxons
in that island, government as well as religion fell into
the most deplorable state. At once our most holy
predecessor Gregory the Great sent the monk Augustine
and his followers; then he created a great number of
bishops, joined to them a multitude of monks and
priests, brought the Anglo-Saxons to religion, and
succeeded by his influence in re-establishing and
extending the Catholic faith in all that country, which
then began to assume the name of England. But to
recall more recent facts, nothing seems more evident
to us in the history of the Anglican schism of the
sixteenth century than the solicitude with which the
Roman pontiffs our predecessors succoured and
supported by all the means in their power the Catholic
religion, then exposed in that kingdom to the greatest
dangers and reduced to the last extremities. It is with
this object, apart from other means, that so many efforts
have been made by the Sovereign Pontiffs, either by
their orders or by their approbation, to keep in England
men ready and devoted to the support of Catholicism;
also that young Catholics endowed by nature might be
enabled to come on to the Continent, there to receive
an education, and be formed with care in the study of
ecclesiastical science, especially in order that, being in
sacred orders, they may on their return to their country
be able to support their countrymen by the ministry of
their word and by the sacraments, and may defend and
propagate the true faith.

"But the zeal of our predecessors will perhaps be
more clearly admitted as regards what they have done
to give the Catholics of England pastors clothed with
an episcopal character at a time when a furious and
implacable tempest had deprived them of the presence
of bishops and their pastoral care. First, the Apostolic
letter of Gregory XV., commencing with these words,
'Ecclesia Romana,' and dated the 23rd of March 1623,
shows that the Sovereign Pontiff as soon as possible
deputed to the government of English and Scotch
Catholic Bishops, William Bishop consecrated Bishop of
Chalcis, with ample faculties and powers. After the
death of Bishop, Urban VIII. renewed this mission in
his Apostolic letter dated the 4th of February 1625,
addressed to Richard Smith, and conferring on him the
bishopric of Chalcis, and all the powers previously resting
on Bishop. It seemed subsequently at the commencement
of the reign of James II. that more favourable
days were about to dawn upon the Catholic religion.
Innocent XI. profited at once by the circumstance; and
in 1685 he deputed John Leyburn, Bishop of Adrumede,
as Vicar Apostolic for all the kingdom of England.
Subsequently, by another Apostolic letter, dated the
30th January 1688, and commencing as follows, 'Super
cathedram,' he joined with Leyburn three other Vicars
Apostolic, Bishops in partibus; so that all England,
under the care of the Apostolic Nuncio in this country,
Ferdinand, Archbishop of Amosia, was divided by that
Pontiff into four districts; those of London, the West,
