METEOROLOG.CAL LABLE for February, 1807. By W. CARY, Strand.. THE GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE, For FEBRUARY, 1807. BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS OF THE BISHOP OF LEON. J OHN FRANCIS de la MARCHE, Bishop and Comte de Leon*, was defcended from an antient and noble family in Britanny. He was born in July 1729, and was educated at Quim per in that Province. Having entered very early into the Army, he diftinguifhed himself at the battle of Placenza in Italy, where he was wounded; and foon after, viz. 1747, promoted to the rank of captain in the Queen's Infantry, at the age of 19. After the Peace of Arx la Chapelle, he returned to his findies. He pent fome time in a feminary at Paris, and went into the Church, and, after hay ing taken his degrees in Theology, he became Canon and Vicar General of the Cathedral Church of Treguier, with a pension of 2000 livres, which, however, he always applied to the ufe of the poorer ftudents. In 1772 he was made Bishop of Leon, (to which the title of Comte is alfo annexed); and there being but a very final feminary in his See, he purchafed a large piece of ground, and erected and fitted up a very handfome building or college at his own expence, proper to hold about 200 perfons, over whom he placed Ecclefiafiies, diftinguithed for their learning and piety: to this college he added a final feminary, where, the poorer ftudents were brought up and inftructed free of all expence. He endowed the whole of this himfelf with funds fufficient for the falaries of the Profeffors, and for the repairs of the buildings. This Eftablishment was completed long before the Revolution, as is known to feveral emigrants now in this country, and to feveral English who vifited Britanny before that period. Belides this work, this good Bishop was very active in various plans and purfuits for the advantage of his Diocefe, and particularly for the benefit of the poor, having dedicated two-thirds of his income for thefe purposes. The progrefs of the French Revolution is too well known to need a recital here, nor does the writer know the detail of this Prelate's opinions or conduct till the month of January 1791, when he became obnoxious to the ruling Powers by retifting the new Civil Conftitution, as it was called, of the Clergy, dated Auguft 24, 1790; by which the Bifhopric of Leon was fuppreffed, and united to that of Quimper, in order to form the Diocese of the latter; notwithstanding which the Bishop of Leon continued to refide in his Epifcopal Houfe, and to exercile his functions. In confequence of this want of compliance with the new order of things, feveral proceedings were had againft him in the Department of Morbihan; and notice was fent him to quit the Epifcopal Houfe, and to deliver up all the papers relative to the temporal and fpiritual government of his Se. As the Bishop, however, paid little attention to thele orders, his conduct was reprefented to the National Affembly then fitting at Paris, who made a dccree the 16th Feb. 1793, to fend three Commiflioners into the Department, under pretence of eftablishing order; and, among other things, directed, that the late Bishop of Treguier, St. Pol de Leon, and Nannes, thould inmediately, on the notification of the decree, attend the National Affembly. This Decree was immediately printed; and fent off to the Directory of the Department of Finifierre, with orders to ferve it, by an Officer of the Marechauffée on the Bishop of Leon, and faumon him to obey it without delay. An officer was fent directly to the District at Morlaix, with orders that the Bishop fhould be conducted iminediately, in a carriage under a good ef cort, to the National Affembly. The Bishop received this Decree the 24th, at 100'clock at night, and prepared to attend the National Affembly according to the Decree; but having received private advice on Friday the 25th not to go to Paris, where he would in*We hope to be favoured with a profile of the Bishop. fallibly |
