Translation of the Bishop of Boulogne's pastoral letter on the spiritual authority; and the new civil constitution of the clergy, as decreed by the national assembly of France. Wherein the distinction between the spiritual authority of the church, and the temporal power of the state, is clearly defined and ascertained. An interesting composition: necessary for the forming a competent and impartial judgement on this important article of the revolution now attempted in France. From the original French.
