8 rETER'S rENCE. from the JV. Y. Ration. ' : When the maanlfloont Top Ieo X wnnwd Money to build the Charon, of. t. Peter, at Roane lie, in the Innocence of his heart, resorted to method which, thoogtt never popular, had en ned with effect before. When we mention Honk Tetiel and his dram, the method la indi cated with sufficient distinctness. The multi tude of the people fell Into lino obediently, and welled handsomely the building fund for the sake of getting their sins proportionately re. jDltted. Hat, unfomyiately or r$0 SBe Marti,i leather bad his soul stirred within him, and lalsed a counter clamor so Indignant and so strotf that the Influx of money considerably Slackened, and a very different sort of influx set in towards the Holy Bee. Owing to that method of "raising the wind," the Church of St. Peter became about the most expensive edifice that ever was put up. Besides the gold and silver it tost, the owners bad to pay for it, sundry rich principalities, a goodly kingdom or two, the crowns ci Bcverai potentates, imperial, uucai, princely, and other, the temporal allegiance of acme manly nations, and the spiritual alle giance of a good many hundred thousand of loyal subjects wno tnenceiortu. instead 01 sees log salvation la the Church, thoueht their chance of salvation improved the further away from the Church they got. That experiment is hardly worth repeating. But 11 takes a great deal of experience to beget a very little wisdom, and we are not so much, surprised as aggrieved that American politi cians are willing to try It again. That they are willing Is, unhappily, too evident to be doubted. J'or several years It lias been the custom of the party In power In New York: to bestow pecu niary and other favors on the Roman Catholics, The sums thus given out of the public treasury, which tne people's earnings till, were for a Ions; time too inslgoitleant to provoke comment. But within a year or so they have, been im mense.' It is true that appropriations have been made to other seclarlau organizations. The Episcopalians have had something; the Jews have bad a trifle; miscellaneous evangelical bodies have picked up a few crumbs. But all this together Is so small that It only throws out li.io bolder relief the patronage bestowed on the Caibolics. Twenty years ago the Com mon Council of Hew York city leased to the Roman Catholic Orphan Asylum two entire blocks of ground on Fifth avenue, between Fifty-first and Fifty-second streets, for ninety sine years, at the rate ol one dollar per annum. On one of these lots stands the asylum; on the other is rising .the cathedral which may be as disastrous to the Church as St. Peter's Itself was. Twenty years ago that land was com paratively cheap; it Is now worth not less than a milliou of dollars. Last year the Catholic Church received lor "charitable" objects 140 Wi ll. This year it bag already received $80,000, and will undoubtedly receive from the Common Council 8100,000 more. An Immense but ding to accommodate a lioman Catholic lair bHS for several weeits obstructed travel on our most beautiful and most frequented publio fcquare. The money Is all given ostensibly and ex plicitly for charitable purpose, but that con siderations of benevolence do not suggest the appropriations is perfectly clear from the fact that Protestant Institutions of charity, though numerous and needy, get nothing, and must either live as they can or die. Nobody is simple enough to believe that religious con siderations have the least weight; for why should Protestants be so generous to a faith they profess to fear? It is no calumny to say that these grants of money and land are simply bribes to secure the Irlsu vote iu the city of New York. Now, the Irish vote Is a very im portant matter. Again and again It has de cided very momentous elections. It is drilled, organized, massed, and can be tbrown with re sistless weight upon a given point. Time after time it has been used to defeat Republican candidates and causes; to bailie attempts at municipal reform; to sustain municipal cor ruptions, and to earryjtbe measures of a sham Democracy against the Intelligence and moral ense of the community. The Republicans would naturally like to get these heavy bat tailous on their side. Tuey are mercenaries who are ready to transfer allegiance for spoils, and would be quite as willing to change for Christian as for Turk, If the Christian would pay more. The Irish vote Is worth a great deal for party fiurposes. Two or three huuUretl thousand dol arsa year well invested In Catholic securities is a moderate price to pay for It. A million of dollais would not be dear if that were all. The people did not grudge the money fir the splendid temple which was to make their cHy tue wonder or trie world ouce more, anu araw iiigrimsirom all parts or tne eartn to itome, t was something besides the sold and silver that made them pause. The Irish vole may be worth much brick and mortar and the choicest corner lots, but is It worth the Indignation of the people, wnloh is certain to be roused sooner or later by the gross misuse of their property and by the burden of illegal taxation? Is 11 worth the direct violation of our principle, that all forms of religion shall stand on a footing of perfect equality, shall be supported by volun tary contributions alone, and shall be entirely Independent of the patronage of the Slate? Is it worth the open scandal brought upon repub lican institutions by the sour col y disguised introduction of bribery into politics? Is It worth the permanent demoralization of an immense class of citizens who are made to feel t hat not their Intelligence but tnelr tau.pld.lty 1b the thlnu desired, their custom, not their consciences, their vice, in a word, and not their virtue ? Is it worth the encouragement given to the lowest order of the population to think themselves of supreme value as an ele ment of power In the city ? Is it worth the con sequence of flinging a gratuitous insult In the lace of all the Protestant sects ? Is it worth the risk of provoking an antl-Cctholio excitement among the "evangelical" bodies that would bring reproach on the whole cause of religion. route the sectarian spirit to frenzy, aud lead to scenes of violence that would dlsurraoe our civi lization? Religion Is a dangerous weapou to two for political purposes, and If history fur nishes any grounds for prophecy, it is safe to predict that the party using it in this country 111 ray. at least, a terrible price for its foil v. We regard this question as a political one solely. We have no prejudices against the iiomikb Church, and bear It no 111 will. As a jorm of government and of faith, we appreciate Its value In communities where the Celtic race la found in large numbers. We would give It lair play, and should be exceedingly sorry to see the old bitternes. against It reviving In the publlo mind. But at the same time we are vri ihii ""tious, and rather than juiucuv-.ft u.m.ub wuuid tnankmllv Imln to lay at rest for ever. Frankly, we advise the Ko man Catholics to ask no rnri.h- we advise the demagogues to giant nouelf th Irlh vote Is so precious, eveu to th u.'.v,,.u party, let us try to secure n by measure, that -.ill cUolo II, a Irlatt uml .1 ... .rS tQl If It cannot be thus oblaiued, let us try to alouu without it by Increased effort of our own our own Intelligence. "All Bight" But a Hard Life. Tbe Brooklyn Preu visited little "All Riht "behind the scenes." and gives us a toucumg Idea of what it costs to amuse the public: Next to editors, we believe actors lead the hardest life. Last night, being In the neighbor hood of the Academy or Muslo, we called on Utile "All Rliihl" iu his room on Ibeteaoud floor above the stage. Iu a corner sat a tooth less veterun, whose duty It was to tuuvtaia on the Japanese guitar for the amusement of the boy; In another corner, on bis knees, rested a aervant wailing for his muster's orders. Ou the floor was stretched a pallet, upon one slue of which sat ttie chief of the troupe, industriously funning bis son, little "All Right," who lay ut julllenglh on the other aide. "All Right" was dressed very elegantly, and his little oheeks were flushed with the anti cipation of bis reoeptlou. At that m ment Dr. Buy re entered the room, and, after a little talk, lelt "All Right's" leg aud thigh.

Exoesqlve heat prevailed here to-day. to the general prostration of active work. In the evening, about seven o'olocic. a remarkable change occurred In the sudden spreading over of a previously olondless sky by ft dark, dense pnll of cloud, through which, above thesouthern borlson. lightning skimmed With bright silvery sheen for hours.

At the same time a southern wind sprung UP ,?d, wi,?u'nti2 heated breath of a slroooo in strong, fitful gust . ver t he city A f"le report of tire soon after caused the cltv bells to ring out an alarm In a a tone of such trepidation as to induce hundreds of whites and blacks to run from all parts of the city, fruitlessly seeking for a conflagration, which, most fortunately, the fates averted. The wind has now abated, and the strange appari tion of clouds bus slowly disappeared.

AFFAIRS IN NEW ORLEANS. Rumored Intended Kerhoval of the City Council by Sheridan Investigation Into the Abstraction of Louisiana Bonds. Nxw Orlkans. July 6. The cltv has been much excited to-day over rumors that the General Commanding had Issued an order re moving many members of the City Council. Carelul Inquiries full to confirm this report, but It is pretty well established that the order was prepared last night and ready to be issued, when the commander ohaneed hia mind and decided to await the legislation of Congress. Governor Flanders leaves to-night for Wash ington. The abstraction of tnree hundred thousand dollars worth of Louisiana trust bonds, which It Is alleged was wholly in the possession of the military, Is under investiga tion, and some damaging revelations are pro mised. The City Scrip Huddle The Late Presi dent of the First National Bank Held to Ball In the Sum of 930,000. New Orleans. July 7. The muddle concern ing the city scrip still continues. The Finance Committee have at length reported In a strain ol unusual severity upon tne message of the acting Mayor, though failing to answer satis- iHctorny tne points muue Dy that functionary. In their report the committee concede that the Issues of city scrip by the Comptroller nave never been legalized by legislative act, though, tbey attribute their wnutof legality to a certain veto of the acting Mayor, and contend that If informal the city Is bound in honor to pay them.' The committee refuse to censure tne Comptroller, and thus the matter assumes the complexion of a mere squabble between the appointees of Sberldau and the few officials who unfortunately were not removed when they should have been. Thomas P. May. of First National Bank noto riety, has been arraigned and held to ball In the enm of t50,000. THE SULTAN OF TURKEY. Sketch of Ills Imperial Majesty and hia The Sultan of Turkey.
