[London.]  November 9.  Letters from Rouen tell us, they
have a very odd scene exhibited there almost every night: 
It is a procession, in which a great cross is carried,
covered with crape, accompanied by two men with wooden
candles, as at funerals . . . They sing in a doleful voice,
the hymns Libera and De Profundis. . . . it is the bull
unigenitus is going to be buried. . . .
