© f the Proteataats . differ from those of tbe Catholic Church Sn the religious duties paid to the dead , their zeal and concern ought to be the same to consecrate in a funeral ceremony , conformable to the rites of their worship , the testimonies of their sentiments , and the expression of a grief common to all the French .

that you assemble the faithful of your communion , the 24 th of this month , in order to render this mournful homage to the memory of the Prince whom we deplore .

Duchess of Herri ' s /^ wiow .- ^ We copy and translate the following curious intelligence from a French newspaper of April 22 : —" The Duchess of Berri has received consolations in a truly miraculous manner in her deep and just sorrow . The loss of her husband had thrown this
Princess into a' sort of despair which threatened her existence , when a benevolent vision ( r £ ve ) came to assist her . During her sleep , she saw St . Louis approach her , leading two children , a boy
and a girl . The King gently touched the eyelids of the Princess , who awoke , and saw the holy Monarch place a crown upon the head of the girl , and another , more brilliant , upon that of the boy , on which the vision vanished . From this
moment the Duchess has been persuaded that she will give birth-to a boy , whom the highest destinies attend . It is said the Duchess of Angoul ^ me has taken advantage of this circumstance to restore calm to the spirit of her sister-in-law , and to give her strength to discharge the maternal duties . "

Spain . The Revolution of Spain proceeds auspiciously . The press is in a state of great activity . Various little Spanish publications have been put into our hands by a friend , and amongst the rest a ^ political
parody on the Apbstles * Creed , which , though we disapprove of such parodies , we insert in a translation * as a great curiosity , considering that it comes m > m Madrid , and from the site of the inquisition , and as a better proof than la fger publications of the actual state of «» nd of the Spanish people .

sovereign national Congress , creator of Spanish liberty and of the present constitution which governsUub with so much success and energy : I believe in Ferdinand the VII ., our only King ; that he was begotten by his father Charles the Wj , born of his mother Maria Louisa ; that he suffered under the power of the
tyrant ; was outraged , oppressed and enslaved ; that he descended from tbe throne , and on the third day was carried into France ; that his innocency rose to heaven , and he is seated on the right side of the hearts of his subjects , from whence ( France ) he came in spite of rebels and traitors . I believe in the . spirit and union of generous Spain , —in the holy cause she
defends , —in the communion of Spaniards , and forgiveness of those who repent and become faithful . I hope in the resurrection of ancient Spanish virtue , in the ruin of selfish men , in the triumph of our enlightened constitution , in the punishment of those who kindle the nre of discord , and in the life and bliss everlasting of the Beninsula . Amen .

Austria . The Emperor of Austria has recently adopted a most liberal , system of treatment with regard to his Jewish subjects . He has given orders that Rabbies , previous to their being appointed to particular synagogues , shall be examined as to their proficiency in the philosophical sciences
and theology , and that stipends shall be assigned to them on a scale corresponding with their acquirements . The Jewish youth are entitled to all the benefits of instruction at the public seminaries , without any violation of their religious tenets or observances . On the other hand , it is ordered that the Jewish Prayer Books shall be translated into the
Vernacular tongue , and their religious discourses be delivered in the same language . In the ordinance issued on this subject , a confident expectation is expressed that the Israelites will , by their morals , talents and other qualifications , expedite the period when it may be no longer necessary to maintain any distinction whatever between them and the other subjects of the Austrian monarchy .
