1.  Trent,  26  Nov.  1562.— On  Monday,  23  Nov.,  M.  De
Lansac  presented  to  the  Council  a  letter  from  the  King  of
France  accrediting  his  Ambassador,  and  excusing  his  delay.
The  Cardinal  of  Lorraine  in  his  speech  depicted  the  miseries
of  France,  their  cause  and  remedy.  The  French  prelates,  he
said,  were  devoted  to  the  Pope,  and  would  accept  the  decrees
of  the  Council.  The  Cardinal  of  Mantua,  the  Archbishop  of
Zara,  and  the  President  Ferrerio,  in  reply,  expressed  their
opinion  as  to  the  origin  of  these  disturbances,  and  how  they
might  be  rectified.
