Almanack for the year 1811 , ' chiefly with a view of noticing the Chapter entitled , ** Organization des Cultes , " as a part most likely to interest our readers . This chapter is the seventh in the Imperial Almanack for 1813 .
The Catholic Religion , Culte Catkolique , occupies the first section , with no other mark of distinction , than priority , or as primus inter pares . Cultes Protestans , fill the second section , while the third is devoted to the .
disciples of Moses , under Hie title of Culte des Juifs . This is probably the last time that Culte Catholique will be constrained to associate with Protestants or Jews , unless France should unexpectedly again possess a government , enlightened to understand the benefits of impartial toleration , and courag $ u 9 enough to pursue them .

U » der these circumstances we cannot be satisfied to lay aside this last Imperial Almanack without further describing „ the ecclesiastical state of France and its dependencies , as modelled by the tolerating policy of the Emperor and King .
The first Section of Chapter 7 th ( p . 256 , ) is devoted to the Archbishop * and Bishops of the Church of Imperial France . Fifteen Archbishoprics , includiag their Suffragan Sees , are thus arranged : Paris , Maliues , Besancon , Lyon , Aix , Toulouse , Bordeaux , Bourges ,
Tours , Rouen , Turin , Genoa , Florence , Pisa , Sienna . The Bishoprics appear to be ninety-eight . The list is closed ( p . 266 , ) with Osnaburgh , a name familiar to an English ear , as having been once under the ghostly care of our Duke of York , who , from
his infancy till the French irruption was Prince Bishop of that Seel It is remarkable that , excepting two or three Italian Prelates , none of the bishops in this list were appointed before 1802 . The Second Section , appropriated to Cultes Protestans commences with
the Protestants of the Confession of Augsburgh , or Lutherans . Their order and connexion with the government are thus described : The churches of the Confession of Aug'sburg-h have Pastors , Consistories , Inspections and General Consistories .
The Consistories superintend the discipline , and the management of the property of the church , and of the interest accruing * from charitable contributions . The Inspections are composed of a pastor and one elder of each of the five Consistorial Churches . Every Inspection elects
from its own body , two laymen and one ecclesiastic , who are called inspectors . The inspector superintends the ministers or pastors , and maintains order in the Consistorial Churches . The Inspection cannot hold its sittings , without the authority of the government .
The General Consistories form the superior administration of all the Consiatorial Churches and the Inspections . Besides the General Consistory , and in the interval of their sittings , there is a Directory composed of a president who ii eldest of the ecclesiastical inspectors and of three laymen , one nominated by the
