denied ; and certainly the immediate results of the conversion gave fair grounds for the denial. The priesthood of the convert's new Church was soon called upon to sanction and bless her union with a Catholic. The question being referred to the autho- rities of the bishopric of Rio de Janeiro, they found it conformable to their instincts of purity and the spirit of their Church to decide in favour of the adulterous tie, on the ground, it appears, that a disparity of faith "cultus disparitas" re...duced the previous bond fide marriage with a Protestant to concubinage. This decision created almost universal indignation at the time ; but I am not aware that it was ever rescinded. A subsequent judgment, rendered, in 1862, by the more enlightened bishopric of Sao Paolo, redeemed the honour at the price of the consistency of the Church. Two Swiss Protestants had been duly married, * had lived together as man and wife, and had two children. According to the law of 1861, above cited, this marriage would seem to have been per- fectly valid and in due form.
