OF ZILLER- pf an exceedingly interesting article, in the June No. of the London Quarter- I T . - f ..Jl?.I . . iy ncicw, iroui w.uicn a snort extract lound its way into the; last du mber of the Recorder ; too" short and disconnected to convey any idea of the thrilling interest df the narrative which forms the basis of the Review, or even properly to il lustrate lher mis-called toleration of the flornish Church, which It tjasintended to exhibit. When we refer to the claim to infallibility set up by the "Man of Sin," in connection with the persecutio n to which the followers of Christ ha ve been sub-' jected within his dominion in the various periods ot his history, as evidence of the tiecessrty of watchfulness, lest again becoming possessed of power, it should be emploj'ed in giving- to the fames or the f rack, those whovill not receive the mark of the beast, we are told that the cruel persecutions to which we refer were tokens of the times evidences.of the general want of tol eration, which marked the character of men's minds at the epoch in which they occurred, and hot peculiarities of, Romanism. And we are directed in confirmation of the assertion, to the persecuting spirit, which disgraced all' eectsat thesame period. Such arguments' dosspss nn force except with those who are wilfully blind, anu even 10 sucn tne narrative ot the proceed ings of the popish , power in Austria comes with a clearness of ilight; which nust penetrate their darkness. ' ' . ; , In the South-eastern part of the Austrian do miaions, itt tbe- district of the- Tyrol, t hereof s a beautiful dale, or vallej', described as an "earthly paradise," even to the eye of the pass ins: stranjrer. and possessing every thing to render it attractive to those who could! look oyer its beauties and call them their own J and especially attractive to a people who are so deeply imbued as the Tyro Jese with the spirit of Fatherland.

But in the overruling; might and wisdom of God, who olten causes the crafty to be taken in his own - net, the blessed spring and fountain cf Protestant ism was left behind, sealed for a time it-is true. nut bubbling up at length in renewed beauty and freshnes?. Copies of Luther's Bible remain ed, and sundry devotional tract?, among which Avas an appeal to his 'countrymen by one. of the sufferers, who though' only a humble minor, ad dressed his brethren with a force, the power of . wnicn is still felt, lhis good seed vegetated, and the gro wing plaijit was nourished by many . streams of divine grace. In the summer excur sions, which the Tyrolese are accustomed ta make into the neighboring states in search of em ployment, these awakened souls were brought into contact wiih kindred spirits, and returned In to their native valley with their Protestant im pressions confirmed, and bringing back fresh supplies of Bibles and religious books, by which the souls of those who remained behind were al so confirmed in the faith. By the Austrian law of toleration, every one who has been baptized within the pale of ths Bomish communion, who becomes uissatished wth its rites or doctrines is prohibited from joining any Protestant charcb, unless : be first give notice of his intention, and submit to receive six weeks instruction in the . doctrines ofthe papacy' After which, if he hold fast his faith, hereceiyes a certificate of the fact from the priest, and is authorized by the civil magistrate lo join' either the Lutheran, the Cal vinisiic, or the Greek church, the only form- of dissent recognized by the law. Even these are fettered by restrictions,! which in this country would be regarded as p?rsecqtion, tand this not by the civil, but the ecclesiastical power. No entrance from the street is permitted to their churches, they cannot idorn them with toners or bells. They are obliged to pay not only tithes, )ut the marriage, baptismal, and burial dues. And though last, most oppressive of all, the right is reserved to the priest, to intrude into the cham ber of the sick Protestant, while Protestants are forbidden all converse with their fellow: subjects on the subject of religion. iSucb is the utmost ex tent of Austrian toleration; but even this was withheld . from the poor ZiilerJalians not bra tumultuous mob, or fanatic priest alone, 'but by 1 .visa uvvasiuu iiu in lii is. 10 r.iin rir inp 1 1 . . .
