TUESDAY, MAIL C.
•Mr. Maine, of Suffolk, hoped that neith
er the amendment nor the amendment there
to would pass. lie hoped the matter would
ho covered by statute law.. He believed
that no good Roman Catholic is fit to hold
office under the government. While he be
lieves that all civil power is invested in the
Pope lie is unfit He hoped that such an ad
would be adojded, and that afterwards it
would be made a constitutional law."
8®, These words were uttered in this
year of our Lord and not twenty days ago,
upon the soil where lived and flourished the
moving spirits of our Revolution. Once
Massachusetts men were willing to die rath
er than have the abstract right of “taxation
without representation” to go upon the re
cord. They lit the torch of Revolution
about a preamble and we through a sea of
blood followed it as it blazed over the coun
try. Now, already, a son of these very men
who were ready for the worst that comes in
standing up for “ God and the right,” is
heard in the Legislature of Massachusetts,
declaring that “no good Roman Catholic is
fit to hold office under the Government.”—
What this patriot and belter Protestant
means by a good Catholic wc don’t know,
but we iufer that it is a very small matter
a.-> he is the .judge of good and bad, who
“ hoped that such an act would be adopted
and that afterwards it would be made a con
stitutional law.” A man here in the South

New York, Feb. 27, 1855. i
We stated last week that the Judges of
the Supreme Court had decided Ben
nett, of the Ilcrald, to be entitled to a new
trial in the libel case—Fry vs. Bennett.—
Well, in the Tribune of last Friday, after
alluding to the recent decision, Fry takes
occasion to say that while the case was
waiting trial several of his witnesses had
died, and among them was Judge Noah,
who, he adds, was ready to testify that, to
his personal knowledge, Bennett, by threat
ening to publish the name of a man who
unluckily was in the house of Rosina Town
send on the night of the murder of Helen
Jewett, had extorted from him at various
times bla'-k mail to the amount of 813,000—
the foundation of his fortune—and not con
tent with this lie had pursued the victim
until he found relief iu suicide. The Eve
ning Express of the same day quotes the
paragraph of which the above is a summa
ry ; and on Sunday the Herald, under the
head of “ More Libel,” contains the deter
mination of the Editor to begin civil action
against both the Tribune and Express, laj--
ing damages at 850,000 each. The Editor
also proposes to show, in the course of these
trials, that his character has passed through
the 35 years from 1820 to the present pure
and reproachless. It is to be hoped, for
the sake of the fair fame of the modest Ed-
region of the heart. The party then made
their escape, bat have been mostly arrested.
It was thought impossible for Poole to re
cover, but he is better this morning. Most
of the party were more or less wounded, as
above forty pistols wore fired. Baker is
lying concealed from the police, who are
making every effort to find him. lie is
badly wounded in the head and abdomen,
his physician (Dr. Clark) reports, who re
fuses to discover his hiding place to the au
thorities. Morrissey, the prime instigator
of the assault, is arrested and held to bail
in the sum of 81,000.
Hood’s song of the shirt may well he
adapted and naturalized on this side of the
water. A poor seamstress complained to
the Mayor that Davis & Son, shirt manufac
turers, had refused to pay her wages, and in
the investigation which followed it appeared
that she was to receive one shilling each for
sewing the shirts, and that before taking
one away for making, the value of which
was aliout 10 cents, she was obliged to de
pot 82 as security for its safe return. These
blood-suckers employ about 500 women.—

of the corruption and the signs of decay
that are revealing themselves all over the
land. Now, suppose that we had said some
months ago, that wc believed a man or a
number of men could bo found in a New
England State, “ where all are freemen and
all read and write,” who would in the dis
charge of legislative functions, willfully and
knowingly commit perjury if political ad
vantage would result from it, would it not
have been regarded an ill-conditioned speacli
and one deserving of censure ? But here is
the very thing itself unmitigated even by
the slightest feeling of shame. This is no
new illustration, however, of the fact that
the worst men are always those who perse
cute.
These arc precious guardians of religion
and liberty surely, who oppress others and
will even forswear themselves that they
may enjoy the luxury. Because they say
that the wretched foreigner who perversely
will not think as they do and who may,
might, could or would some day or other
get the upper hand, and bedisposed to perse
cute—then our prudent Know Nothing will
begin in time, and docs now what the Ro
man Catholic will do—when lie gets able—
where is the advantage then that our liberty
living propogundist of American descent
has over the foreign born. The Catholic,
we hear, will not keep an oath to respect our
rights when lie gets strong enough to throw
it to the dogs—so wc are advised that we
lmd better he making lmsto to commit all
the perjury ourselves that is to come off
uhout the matter. If a Roman Catholic is
the hound and abject vassal of a “ higher
law,” why—so is Seward and his gang of
sanctimonious swindlers. If Lho Catholic
will put under foot his civil plights and en
gagements because of his religion—the
blue nosed, puritanical whiner of New Eng
land puls his under foot for no religion at
all; and so where’s the difference? l’ity
it io, God knows, (taking what Know-Noth
ings say for true,) that any set of men
should, in the blindness of their worship,
think that these things may be done to do
God service—but yet how much more de
plorable and hopeless the wretched self
idolatry that thinks they ought to bo done
to do ourselves, and ourselves only, good.—
Until men respect constitutions and oaths
themselves, they would do well to speak less
about the faithlessness of others. But the
heart of the patriot sickens at the certain
result of all this paltering with things big
with the issues of life and death, and at the
thought that it is needful and proper to
warn, and reason, and implore, when the
error and the evil arc so palpable and so
imminent. _

is entertaining and instructive, and some
articles of great force. And though we

their class and every way worth the sub

Gen. Can roiiert in Love.—There is a ro
mantic story current in the upper circles of
Paris and London relative to an attachment
which Ucu. Canrobert is known to entertain
for the daughter of one of the British gene
rals who fell at the battle of Inkermau.—
Previous to the departure of the French
general with the army of the East, he had
an interview with tho young lady in Paris,
and urged his suit with his characteristic
and national enthusiasm. It is said that
tho interview was satisfactory, and the gal
lant general left expressing a chivalrous de
termination of wining a marshal’s baton,
and becoming more worthy of the much-
prised English beauty. Sebastopol has,
however, proved fatal to the father of the
young lady; hut the same officer who
brought the distressing intelligence was also
entrusted with a message from the wounded
General Canrobert to the lady, in utter ig
norance of her bereavement, dilating on his
brightened prospects as one step towards his
implied promise of rendering himself wor
thy of her hand.

There arc strong indications of a veto of

[From the Boston Times of Wcducsdny.]
The Knnc Expedition.
Capt. Eagle, U. S. N., Cant. Gardner, U.
S. N., Lieut. Lovell, l’. S. N., and the
Head Ship-carpenter attached to Charleston
Navy Yard, have been appointed by the
Secretary of the Navy, a Committee to ex
amine two steam propellers, to bo purchas
ed by the Government for the purpose of
proceeding to the Arctic Seas in search of
Dr. Kane andlnspaity. They yesterday
made an examination of two propellers,
“ Granite Slate” and “Eastern Slate,” which
vessels arc bolieved to be the only ones now
built that arc suitable and fitted for such a
voyage. The ships were built in Philadel
phia, the birthplace of Dr. Kane, and the
owner, R. F. Lopcr, Esq., of that city, bus
reer of lamblike innocence for the past 30
years, and so purge the public mind of the
uncharitableness which has believed him to
be on another sort of “ iay ” altogether.
The Iribune, too, has been exposing itself
in another quarter. Horace Greely. the
editor-in-chief, in his passage at arms with
St. John the Bank Superintendent, makes
mention of Raymond, of the Times, as a
“little villain,” although strangely enough,
the villainies of which he complains uere
committed before the Tribune gave its full
aid to place the “ little villain ” in the high
position of Lieutenant Governor of the Em
pire State. It is believed the expression
will be made the basis of a libel suit.
Notwithstanding the exposition of the se
crets of his trade, made by the reformed
gambler, Green, some three years ago, which
so startled the community that, among other
safeguards from the evil, an office was open
ed where all the name? of parties known to
frequent gambling houses were entered,
these “hells” continue to flourish in una
bated prosperity. Having for a long time
had a curiosity to inspect one of these
places, 1 eagerly accepted an invitation re
cently made me by one of the initiated, io
whom I had communicated my desire, to
visit with him one of the most extensive es
tablishments of the kind in the city. The
observer, of Broadway between Grand and
Eighth streets must have remarked several
unpretending buildings with shutters always
closed. A half mysterious air hangs about
them. Except upon the first floor, which is
usually occupied by an eating saloon, no
lights are eveu seen, no noises oven heard.
My visit was to one of these. Passing from
the street through the salle a manner we
readied a door at the farther end concealed
from view by a gauze screen. The door
turning upon well oiled hinges showed a
narrow and thickly carpettcd stairway,
which we ascended and found ourselves in a
dimly lighted corridor. Traversing it for
some distance my guide paused at a side
door and rang a bell. It was opened by a
grave, respectable looking servant, who cas
ed us of coats and hats and bowed us into
a large and splendidly furnished apartment
to which tho room first entered was a sort of
reception room. A costly chaudlier shed a
floral of light upon a table showily furnish
ed with the luxuries of the season, at which
sat or rather reclined some half dozen feeble,
faded, vice hardened young men, the eldest
of whom had not seen 30 years. Their
faces wore an anxious expression, they spoke
listlessly and coherently, and although each
endeavored to carry his glass to his lips with
elegant composure, 1 could see his hand was
unsteady. Imitating the non chdlanee of
my companion as best I could, I drew up to
the table and picked the wing of a wood
cock while he engaged the young debauch
ees in a conversation, from which I gathered
that these young gentlemen were mostly of
families of wealth and social positions.—
After some moment passed in this manner
another obsequious laqucy bowed us into
the gambling hall proper. This was a long
Meeting of M. E. Bishops.—Tiie Rev.
Joshua Soule, senior Bishop of the Metho
dist Episcopal church, South, has “advised
and invited” a meeting of all the bishops of
that elm rch to meet at Nashville Tenn.,
on the third Monday of April. All arc ex
pected to he present except Bishop Andrew,
who will attend tho Pacific Conference at
that time.
Washington, Feb. 28.—The United States
Agricultural Society commenced their third
annual session to day at the Smithsonian In
stitute. Twenty-six States were represent
ed. Col. Wilder’s address on raking the
chair was warmly received; and after the
appointment of the committees, the Society
adjourned till to-morrow.
This evening George Washington Parke
Curtis lectured on the agricultural charac
ter of his father, by adoption, George Wash
ington.
The session has thus opened with favora
ble auspices. The agricultural talent as
sembled has been seldom equalled.
A proposition will probably be made iu
the Senate to-morrow to establish an ocean
mail, as a substitute for that which ceased
by the withdrawal of the Cunard line be
tween N. Y. and Liverpool.

the superintendency of Indian affairs, refuses
to accept and retains his old agency. His
name has been withdrawn as the nominee

Washington, Feb. 28.—A melancholy oc
currence took place at one of the govern

Gen. Houston and^Slavcry.
The Boston Atlas makes merry over a
Lecture upon Slavery, recently delivered in
that city by this notorious individual. “It
was perfectly good uatured,” says the Atlas;
but, “certainly a weeker defence of slavery
than Gen. Houston’s, we do not remember
to have read and’ “wc cannot help thin
king, that he is not very deeply enamored
of the institution,”,to. Now it is by just
such precious specimens of sycophuciiv, and
mean catering to Northern prejudices, as
this, that the cause of the South suffers in
the eyes of her enemies. Here is a Southern
Senator, leaving Washington and his official
duties, (which, however, is to ho rejoiced at
so fair as the decorum and business of the
Senate is consented,) perambulating the
Northern States, and attempting, by Tem
perance Lectures, and “good natured,” in
offensive, tame apologies for Slavery, to
ingratiate himself with the sworn foes of
the South! And for what? The Presidency,
of course. What! has the Chief Magistracy
of this Republic got so low, as that Sam-
Iluuston can cast confident and hopeful
glances thereat ? And have caucussing, and
time-serving, and party expediency and
availability, so dragged down the office, es
to,be within the reach of such a game/ Or
has the South grown so weak in the Union,
her voice so impotent in the choice of pub
lic servants—her institutions so despicable,
that hence-forward Southern polidcans must
buy office and honors, by vile treachery to
her? It was not to be expected of Gen. Hous
ton, to make other than a weak defence of
Slavery. Intellectually, he was nowhere
equal to.it; morally, in Boston, and with
his eye upon the Presidencyl he certainly
was not.
To have taken, boldly, the side of Aboli
tion, would have, no doubt, digusted his
hearers, and therefore he adopts the tone of
which the Atlas speaks. But it will not
do. Frcesoil has its own true men to re
ward, and having cajoled such blind and
empty creatures as Sam Houston, will kick
them, easily, and with disgust, aside. lie,
Tlie Allied Army iu tlic Crimea.
The Washington Star has been permitted
to publish the following extract of a letter
to George N. Saunders front one of the most
distinguished French exiles now in London:
“ The army of the allies is looked upon
as entirely lost. Destitution and cold pro
voke desertions. English and French go
over to the Russians. The hope of an ap
proaching catastrophe has not abandoned

Meeting by Telegraph.—The electric
telegraph is truly one of the institutions of
the age. Besides bearing our thoughts to
distant friends, transacting a very large pro
portion of the mercantile business of our
country, it is made of practical benefit to
those who controls it. A few evenings since
some business exigency on the Morse lino
demanded an immediate meeting of the
Board of Directors. Ordinarily this is no
easy task, as the Directors live “ all along”
the line from Buffalo to New York, but the
question to be decided being one of some
importance, a “ meeting by telegraph” was
ordered. After the line had elosed for busi
ness—each member of tlic Board having in
the meantime been notified by telegraph—
the presiding offices opened the meeting, he
living in Utica, and the business to be trans
acted was sent along the line to each and
every member.
Votes were taken, motions put, seconded
and carried, while the mover was hundreds
of miles removed from the party seconding
the same : objections were raised, speeches
made and responded to, the same as though
there had been a convocation of the parties
in a twelve by eight room. This is what we
call doing business by telegraph to a great
purpose.—Albany Express.

signified her wish to have a fine canticle to
be sung by die young ladies of St. Cyr,
when the King, Louis XIV, entered the
chapel of that institution. Tiie canticle
was provided at once, and Handel happened
to hear it, accompanied by a select orches
tra at \ ersailles. He obtained permission
to copy Lulli’s music, and on his return to
England, presented it to George First. It
thence became popular and national. The
words of the original eantiide were these:
