PIINTTYMEN : -A composition bearing the of "the Jesuits' oath" has been circulating .in the papers-of the country, it is said, exten sively. On rending it mygelf., the imposition seemed so'glaring. no lift': Sterne's curse, made to band for the Pope, that it seemed to me no one could peruse it seriously. Friends, how ever, assure tnelhat the oath is rend by many with long faces. Despite, then, an extreme repugnance to appear in the public journals. I request a saint, place in your columns for the positive and unqualified denial of the use or even existence-now or ever before, (and this I aver thoughtfully and with full knowledge.) of any such oath timong the Jesuits. If sum : _ . , atoned to court they may take oaths as other citizens. but as Jesuits they take ito oallt at all. I am lituniliated, as a Marylander, P. being called npon.'on the borders of my native State, to make the above disclaimer, and thus repel the charge of more than latent treason ! The Western shore olMaryland, and home of MI childhood, hns ever been a classic place. cher ished in my heart with patriotic pride. There are the remains of my grawiltaker, a revolu tionary soldier, and there. in an adjoining con itty, is the landing place of "the Pilgrims of St. .duty's.'' whose brightest .sceues and best -Anemones are imperishably connected with th'e Jesuits' name: Such antecedents, though not ashamed of, I certainly should not have adverted to had not an attempt been made, by a fabricated oath and its et-ceteras, to cast an unjust and dead ly odinninpon a religious order of which I am at present Superior .in - Maryland. I cannot help seeing in this effort to render me anti my brethren in religion aliens at home and stran gers by our 'Own firesides. We are cruelly misrepresented by the framers of the. above nau►ed oath. ' Were we more like the carica ture mode of us I feel convinced that they would like ns_ better than they do., Assifoila tion would beget'affection. Still, while with a very little heart-ache I forogo their affection, a doe respect for the opinions of men of good will moves nu to make a brief declaration of our tenets as Jesuits, For . this purpose I will use the highest. ofileial authority, and employ the language of our - recently elected and pres ent Superior• General. I quote from an ency clical letter of his received a few days since : "The Society of Jesus, being a religious or der.•has no other doctrine, no, other rules of conduct than-those of the Catholic Church, as teas p ibliely declared by my predecessor in 1847. in fact and in right, the Jesuits are and declare themselves entirely unconnected with any lnilrtical party, be it what , it may. Always and everywhere they say to all, by their teaching, and by their conduct, s'ltender unto Cie tar-the things that are Ciesar's, and (;orl the things that are t;od's.' (Mark 12. 17.) Such ar•e the principles which the Socie t% of .Jesus has always held, and from which, it it ill never depart.' This is the definition of the Superior Gener al. and his declaration alone is of authority for the whole Society. . . I may yet refer to a still higher autherite, the constitutions of our S , miety.—These inca pacitate a member from holding ant• !e of dignity or trust-in it who intertneddles in •any political affairs or business of State.

Article VI. of that sacred in strument : "A'n,re,li ,, imis lest shall erer be required as a .qualifientioii to nu!, yffir, of public trust ntaler this government." Article 111. of the •‘conititti firm of the United Suns of America." i. c., Know-Nothings, at presen to "la — final. and effect" throughout the country, is as follows : . . _ "The object of this organization shall be to ' resist the insiduous policy of the Church of Rome, and other foreign - influence, against the ; institutions of the country; by placing in vaires in the mift of the people, or by appoint ' agent, nonebut native burn Mt n't:sTA NT citizens."

The "even ,tenor of the WAr" of things in this borough, has been ruffled of late by an at tempt on the part of proliaidy a half dozen. it is said, of our citizens, to regulate the liqnor traffic. upon the rules set Ibrth in the different sections of the -Thickalew Law." That law k entitled, "An. Act to protect certain domestic and private rights, and prevent abuses in the sate and use of intoxicating di inks." Its sec ond section authorizes M.tgistrates residing in the district, to '4erve a notice upon any person. not to sell, give or furnish intoxicating liquors to persons of kn6ttut iniensprfute liabit.g, under penalties of tine and unprkonntent. The evi dent intention of the law is, that up o n (hr com plaint (PI any blond rebtlims, the Justice of the Peace may issue this notice. It certainly can not be construed Auto a meaning argue , ' by some, that he is at liberty to place any man in the - position of an habitual drunkard without having full evidence thereof. A Justice upon such an assumption would be liable to impeach ment, as well as puttiShutent under the libel laws. The law was passed to "protect, domes tic rights." and "prevent abuses in the sale of liquor ;" if used tbr other objects, legal redress may doubtlessly be obtained. The cause of the excitement here was a printed list containing 53 names, (originally sit;, but 3 had been erased.) signed by Esq. Evans, and served by the Constable upon the venders of. ardent spirits. The list became public before the notices were,served, and it is said that the names of some person.* not emit hug under the designation of the law are there on ; hence the indignation of a majority of the citizens of this borough. Suits have been in stituted against the Justice, and witch feeling is manifested, even by those who are not par ticularly concerned. Some persons on that list feel aggrieved. insulted and injured : and their familiesand friends, who saw no occasion to enter complaint against them, of course sym pathize with them. What will be _the result we cannot of course tell ; but with the editor of the Kruminer, we "doubt the expediency of such wholesale proceedings. Separate no tices, as occasion culls for them, would be quite as etttctuul, and would avoid the excitement now created, which isxertainly untavorable to the desired object." Fanatical zeal never yet was of permanent benefit to any cause, and in this instance we have another illustration. A community of "indeoendent sovereigns" will not obey the be hests of a few, without they are convinced that they are superior in intellect or morals gener ally. A real philanthropist, one who loves God and his fellow-men in sincerity and truth, will never mix in wholesale onslaught on his fellow-men ; such an one strives by example and precept to inculcate proper ideas and views—never uses brute force or the "majesty of the law," save in extreme cases, where gen tle means are unavailable. We regret the whole attair, because it has stirred up a feeling of where all should he peace and unity. Our town hashed enough to contend with during the veal past, of real importance, to cause us to look with brotherly kindness upon alt of our associates, and we arc almost compelled to wish that "palsied he the hand" among us, that would add fuel to the flame of our sorrow, or the heart that could prompt home dissensions awl domestic agita tion.—Lblumbia S y. fr7'Massachucetts, the fruitful mother of rascality, has taken the lead in legislating that 116 - Catholic. good or bad. shou!ii hold office !
