Pope'sBishopandKing'sBishopinArmagh (REV.C.S.FINNEGAN.)

Fromtheyear1542till1551the primatialseeofArmaghhadtwoArchbishops,oneofthemthedejurepre- lateappointedbyPopePaulIII.,the otherdesignatedbyKingHenryVIII. Thissituationwasbroughtaboutby theconflictbetweentheauthorityof Romeandthespiritualheadshipof theChurchinhisdominions,which 'Henryarrogatedtohimself,whenhe finallybrokewiththePope.His chiefconcerninIreland,asinEngland,wastohavetheepiscopalbenches filledwithmenwhowouldbemere instrumentsinhisschemeforthereformationofdoctrineandceremonial intheChurchofwhichhehadconstitutedhimselfthehead.Withthis objectin*view,heselectedcreaturesof hisownforprefermentwhenanyof theseesbecamevacant.Theseap- pointmentswerenotrecognisedby Rome,andhencewehavethesituation indicatedabove,whenthefirstseein IrelandwasgovernedbyanarchbishopofHenry'schoosing,whilethe legitimaterulerneversetfootwithin theboundariesofhisdiocese.

In1542thearchdioceseofArmagh becamevacantbythedeathofGeorge Cromer.Duringhisepiscopatehe hadfoughtvigorouslyagainst'Henry's usurpationofthesupremespiritual power, withandresistedeveryinterference thestatusquooftheChurch withinhisdiocese.Onhisdeaththe Kingdeterminedthattheseeshould begiventoonewhowouldfallinmore readilywithhis'designs.Inthebeginningof1543,GeorgeDowdallwas appointed,andconsecratedbyacreatureofHenry's,Staples,Bishopof Meath.

DowdallwasborninDrogheda,ofan ancientandrespectablefamily,in 1487.HeenteredtheOrderofCrutchedorCrouchedFriars,amendicant OrderestablishedintheMiddleAges, andwasthelastprioroftheirmonasteryatArdee.ItisrecordedinArchdoll's"MonasticonHibernicum"that hesurrenderedtheprioryin1534,and inconsiderationofhisvoluntarysurrender,apensionof£20ayearwas grantedtohimoutofitspossessions, "untilheshouldbepreferredtosome ecclesiasticalplace."Beforehisap- pointment,hewassub-custosorsec- ondincommandoftheseeofArmagh,duringtheinterregnumafterDr.Cromer'sdeath.

Theappointment,however,wasnot recognisedbyPopePaulIII,who, whenhelearnedofthedeathofDr. Cromer,appointedaScotchman,RobertWauchope.Thetraditionalview wasthatthelatterwasblindfrom birth,butitismoreprobablethathe sufferedfromanafflictionoftheeyes whichrenderedhimnear-sighted,oralmostblind.Inspiteofthisdisabil- ityhewasrecognisedasamanofvery exceptionalintellectualattainments. Hisearlyyearswerespentatthecele- bratedUniversityofParis,wherehehadaverydistinguishedcoursein theology,attheendofwhichheob- tainedthedegreeofDoctorofDivin- ity.HewasselectedbyPaulIII. forthehonouroffirstintroducingtheJesuitsintoIreland.Asaconsequence,someofthemostillustrious membersofthatOrdercameintothis countrytocombattheperniciousdoc- trinesofthe"Reformers."

Itwouldappear,however,thatWauchopenevertookpossessionofhissee. DowdallwasalreadyinstalledandrecognisedbyeveryoneexcepttheRomanauthorities.Itisknownthat WauchopevisitedDerryduringthe yearsofhisepiscopate,butthereis norecordthatheeversetfootwithin theboundariesofhisowndiocese.It wasimpossiblethathecouldeverhope tofunctionasthedefactoArchbis. hopofArmagh,asDowdallhadthe unqualifiedsupportofalltheclergy andthenativechieftains. WauchopewasappointedbyPaul III.legatetothecourtofGermanyin 1543.Heattendedthefirstsessions oftheCouncilofTrent,from1545to 1547,andhisnameappearswiththedesignation,"ArchbishopofArmagh andPrimateofIreland,"intheactsof theCouncil.Itwasafterthedeath ofPaulIII.andthefirstprorogation oftheCouncil,thathemadehisabor- tivevisittoIreland.Onhisreturn, heretiredtoahouseoftheJesuit OrderinParis,anddiedintheendof theyear1551.

'Meantime,Dowdall,thoughaschismaticalbishopwhoruledonlyby royalmandate,can.*onthegovern- mentofArmaghwithexemplarypiety andrigidorthodoxy.DuringtheremainderofHenry'sreign,hefound Dowdallhissternestopponentagainst all"reforming"measures,threatsand promisesbeingequallyunavailing againsthim.

WiththeaccessionofEdwardVI. tothethrone,anattemptwasmadeto

Ithadlittleeffectonthefinaldeci- sion,whichwasinfavourofortho- doxy.Allthebishops,withtheex- ceptionofStaplesofMeath,sidedwith Dowdall,andthenewprayerbookwas ignominouslyrejected. Waregivesusaverycircumstantial accountofaconferencewhichtook placeshortlyafterwards,byarrange- mentoftheDeputy,SirJamesCrofts, betweenDowdallandStaplesatSt. Mary'sAbbey,Dublin.InthisaccountDowdalldefendedtheMass, StaplestheBookofCommonPrayer. Catholicwriters,uptoquitearecent date,haveacceptedthisasanhistorical account,buttherecanbeverylittle doubtthatthewholenarrativeisa deliberateforgery,perpetuatedby RobinWare,theunworthysonofSir JamesWare,andnottheonlyoneof whichRobinWarehasbeenguilty.An ostentatiousmethodofdiscussion,with eachpartyclaimingthevictory,would haveservednopurpose,anditis doubtfulifDowdallwouldhavepaidhisadversariesthecomplimentofrecognisingtheirrighttochampiona systemofdoctrinewhichwasanathematohim.Butevenifthewholeaccountweretrue,Staplesisnotregard- edashavinggainedmuch"kudos"out ofthedisputation.In1551,thestorm,whichwasgather. ingInroundDowdall'shead,finallybroke thatyearhewasdeprivedofhis primacy,whichwasconferredbyletterspatentonBrowneandhissuccessorsforever.Fearingthatthiswas onlythebeginningofaseriesofperse- cutionsforhis"wellknownobstinacy andperversity,"heleftIrelandfor theContinentin1552.Hisseewas declaredvacant,andinthesame year,HughGoodacrewasappointedin hisplace-thefirstProtestantArch- bishopofArmagh.

NewPrussianConcordatWiththeHolySee MA.EINGFORSPIRITUALADVANCE.

(ByDomLambertNolle,

TherehasbeensignedinBerlinby thePapalNuncio,ArchbishopPacelli, andPresidentliraun,-thenewConcordat.AlthoughithastobeapprovedbythePrussianDiet,itmay bepresumedthatitwillpass,since HerrBraun,beforesigningitonbehalfoftheGovernment,wasinconsultationwiththeleadersofthepoliticalparties.

Thesipliticalreasonsarechieflythat thediocesesoftheformerStatesof Hanover(OsnabruickandHildesheim) Nassau(Limburg)andKurhessen (Fulda)hadtheirownconcordats;and itisnowdesirablefortheStatethat thereshouldbeuniformarrangements inthewholecountry.

FormerlytheBishopswerenominatedbytheChapters,buttheyhadfirst tosendalistofcandidatestothe Government,whocouldvetothenominationofsome,butnotofall.After thenominationconfirmationwasreservedtotheHolyFather.

NowtheChapter,aswellasthe wholePrussianEpiscopate,sendseparatelistsofcandidatestoBishopricsto theHolySee.TheHolyFatherselects fromthemthree,outofwhichthe Chapterofresidentialandhonorary nonsselectone,andsubmitthe metotheGovernment;thelatter objectforpoliticalreasons,oron acauntofsomedefectinthecourseof studies.Forthelatterthereisre nuiredofallBishops,Canons,diocesanofficials,seminaryprofessors,and parishpriestsacourseofnineyears° studyattheGymnasium,andthree yearsataPapalUniversityoraGermanUniversity,oroneoftherecognisedseminariesinGermany.
