It was formed of the principal members of the minori ty party. Its office Was to remonstrate with the Pope; and endeavor to have some serious modifications, Made in the dogma of infalli bility. How it succeeded has not yet been reported. The'only thing known is, that to-day there was a session or congregation held at St. Peter's, at which it was said these modifications were voted upon. The meeting broke up very early. By 11 o'clock the Fathers were hurrying out of the council ball to their homes. That there will be a promulgation of the dogma in some form is very certain,and next Tuesday, it is said, has been announced a. , the day of public session. But there is some protability that it may be deferred until the 25th or the Ist of August, the feast of St. Peter in Vinculo. Those Who are disposed to, juke about the matter say that its proclamation on that feast day will be a symbol of the chaining of: the Church and Re ligion to the will of one person—it vinculo meaning ehains. Seine are so•sauey aS to sug gest Mayas it is a favorite . dogma of, the .Je-, suits, it ought to be promulgated. on the 31st of 'July; the feast of St. Ignatius. At the voting on the four chapters as a whole, enWednesday, there were eighty-eight nega tives, sixty-three jirxiO rnOdtan (with modifica tions),- and' several refused to vote—among these Cardinal Amati; a very Warm friend of the Pope. Archbishop ,Kenrick (St. Louis) has pub lished; his last distourse, which he was not allowed to deliver in COnneil. A Rattan gen- - tleman of tine culture, a nephew of a late Cardinal who was very distinguished, read my copy of the discourse a morning or two ago, and was in raptures over its Latinity. He said, " This is Ciceronian Latin ; there is no such Latin written now at Rome ; ours is inoyen age, scholastic, not pure and antique as this." Archbishop kenrick is very strong and bold in his discourse. The main end of the speech is to refute Cardinal Cullen's defence of infallibility.

They were mostly separatists, as well - as mystics and perfectionists. They had formed the ideal of a perfectly pure and spiritual Church, a community without spot or blemish, and filled with perfect love to Gqd and man,. in which the credentials of every member should be counterSigned,as it were, by the very spirit of God. To secure this they latterly foi tried communities amoogthemselves, which they called by the name of that one of the seven claircheS of - Asia which had been singled out for especial commendation in the Apocalypse—Phila.- - t!elphia. As early as 1624, we find "the Con gregation of God in the Spirit at Philadelphia" designated on an old mystical title-page as the company to whom certain instructions are - directed - The most- extensive arginization_of this kind was the "Philadelphia Society," or g.anized in England by Dr. Pordge and Jane Leade about 1692; branches in communion with -it were organized- at Amsterdam, the Hague, and other-places-of Holland 4 at -Ham burgh, Altona, Berlin, and other cities of Ger many.

From this Conrad Dippel, the Christian Demo critus, sent out his Spiritual _Yews (Gebilliehe Fa ma), and waged unceasing warfare with the letter-learned Doctors, (Bchrift-Iftehr- IPm.) After 1740, this religious party seem to have largely died out, and the name of our city no longer appears on their title-pages. About the same time the Moravian Count Zinzendorf returned to Germany from his visit I.NNE BREATER to our Commonwealth, and it is notable that his publications in regard to this visit. through punted in Gerniany—Trobably at Gorlitz, in Silesia—bear the imprint of Philadelphia, as an answer to his reports bears the name of Germantown. Two or three other religious publications relating to or designed for the German Churches of our State at this period bear the name of one or other of these places, while really printed in the Fatherland. In the second half of the century Philadel phia was largely thus used by the Philanthropic Rationalists of Germany, but especially by the 3lasons. The former, in times when they had not yet won full toleration, found it convenient to use various assumed names of places in their political and religious pamphlets, and this was one of their favorites. They had rmgatively, much in common with mystics of the Dippel type, more than one of. whom (Dan. Muller and Endelman) became sheer rationalists to wird the close of their life. The Rationalists also seem to have organized Philadelphia Soci eties, as we find Bahrdt, in 1784, publishing a song book for the use of such. One of their publications (printed at Berne, in 1795) was, "Sermons in the new Lutheran - `Church, at Philadelphia," which may be genuine, but, in view of the character of the real pub lisher, is more probably an impudent Rational ist forgery. To the same category of doubt' we may also refer the "Sermon by a Boston clergyman," which was" printed at Berne and. . published in a mythical. Boston, in.177t1... - With tliellaSons the mythical Philadelphia was second in favor only to the mythical Je rusalem as a place of publication. The adhe sion of Frederick the Great to their order bad given them a certain standing and respecta bility in Germany ; the air of mystery thrown around their proceedings and the philan thropic character of their professions, chimed well with the feelings of that age of transi tion ; it was the period when they especially indulged in those lofty pretensions to anti quity which their own hands have wisely shat tered to pieces in our day. Their chronicles and their manuals were not safe publications in any but a very few cities,for the governments feared them as a secret political brotherhood, so most of these were dated at. Jerusalem, in indica tion of the high and sacred antiquity of the craft, while many others bore on their title page the name of Philadelphia, as describing the benevolent character of the fraternity.* As this was the age of Mesmer and Cagli ostro, of the superstition which goes hand in hand with scepticism— Where Gods are not, Spectres rule--.[Novalisi —SO the literature of the period abounded in -works..-on --magic,-alchemy-and-sympathetic medicine, „whose , are.

A mythical Readin g. and a mythical Lau, caster are not unknown iu the history of Ger,/ mars literature. Mexico has been credited with a tew books, with as much truth as California was credited with Frederick the Great's pamph let against the Poles, "The Ourang-Outang In Europe," Berlin, 17SO. A German satire on France, of the year 1720, was announced as " printed in the Mississippi State Printing (Alice," for reasons well known to the students of History ; and Jamestown, Va., is credited, in lie 4, with a drama, based, on the story of Pocahontas, which really appeared 'at Ansbach. But the whole mass of books falsely ascribed to other American cities or towns form but a small number as compared with the issues of mythical Philadelphia. f A very few German 'publishers, especially one rascal at Altona, still continue to credit American and European cities with literature of a kind that their own cities are not very proud of, but they show their judgment in as- Cribing it rather to New York and Boston than our own city.

LONDON, August 2.-,-[Special to New York Tribuite.l--The dis4ppointuaent at Gladstone's failure to make 'a pOsitiie'declaration to protect Belgium, on Monday,night, seems to be far • irnore general, and even more, indiguant,than :before described, Throughout his speech the House•had sat in pinta! waiting, changing at 'ifs eldie to one of-unsatisfied expectation. Liberals and Conservatlies complain bitterly that the government fails to comprehend the determination of the people, and that Glad stone's economical and sentimental shrinking from war threatens to precipitate England into the very conflict she seeks to avert. Tile corn plainte,of the . German press on England's in resolute polley and imperfect neutrality are felt to be just. Influential Liberals have already represented to the government the danger of deservinglh'e same reproach from Prussia as from the United States, and urge that some de cided action ought to be taken or some clear ideclaration made both as to Belgium and the ',operation of the neutrality acts. The decision on coal will not satisfy Prussia. . Lord Russell's ..Speech to-night against France represented the'Liberal feeling : far bet , ter,- than Gladstone's, and was heartily ap proved, both houses. -The statement he drew from Lord Granville, though not ex plicit, was significant of amore decided policy than before announced; still it does not, meet ;the view of a strong party, which insists that the only-way for England-to keep out of war Is by a frank assertion of her readiness to go into 'it when necessary. Journals friendly to the Government, and solicitous that England shall do her whole ,duty, press Lord Granville's' words beyond, their literal sense, and insist that they mean all the country wants them to mean. Lord Granville said that at some future time he might be more specific. He could not be more intelligible, and 'even. Lord Russell pro e.ssed himself satisfied.

Cassagnae, editor of the rays,l in 3londay's edition demands the issue of reprisals against the hundred thousand Germans now in whoni he 'denounces 'as spies. and pro -poses To excite the. people ,against them and compel their immediate expulsion. LoNnotx August —[Special to the . New York Tr;b ' une].—The engagement at Saar iirticken was between a small detachment forming the Prtissiahrrear guard and three di visions of French infantry, supporting twenty ! hree guns. The affair was of slight_import-. ance, and the loss on both sides trifling. )ur - correspondent,_. writing from Saar brucken Sunday night, says he was aroused early that.morning, by a report that the down .was to be evacuated, and for the fah or sixth time 'packed up for'a start. In' skim of the ap parent impoi lance of maintaining- the railway connections at Saarbrucken, the Prussians have never seriously prepared to defend it, add their movements are believed to he henceforth' inde pendent of the Sahrorucken line. Considerable. bodies of , troops. entered Saar hrucken at different times but not as a garri son: The town itself is indefensible unless the heights on the French side are occupied by a large force. In fact these heights have only been piqueted by the Prussians. The attack repulsed last ,Saturday was a sufficient warning of the French intentions, bbt the PruSsians took no further steps, even when the French subse quently occupied the woods. The mystery thus far hanging over-Prussian movements and plans is not dispelled by the taking of . Saarbrucken. Nothing in the French account shOWs that they - occupied the town itself, or have attempted to ascertain what force lies _beyond. The story that forty prisoners were Made by the French. between Saarhitteken and Forhath is an invention: A'nitro-glycerine factory - at" Laiienburg ex ploded yesterday, and fin persons were ldlled.
