time they most solemnly asw verate — rtiet — no
such rule - of is Laid down in the order !
itself: 'The action of the Philadelphia Nation
al Council, however.
shows that religious In-1
tolerance ,is a primary doctrine of the order;
the e xclOionOfthe'Louisiana delegation from
the satne body demonstrates that actual hostil- I
ity to Roman Catholics is still one of the fun
datnental principles of Know-Nothingism.
One fact" should not be forgotten, that the order
in*Losielana has never arrayed itself in !testi!. !
icq to any religious denomitiition. it is based
upon Td_ Native American party. with the 1
secret - principles attached. Some of its most 1
prominent and active members are Catholics ;
anti one of their delegates to the National
6one - it, Mr. Gayarre, widely known as the
sober, of the "History of Louisiana," is
among - tbe number. The committee on ere
deittials objected to recetifing the Lottiiana
deiegaiion prr account of their-toleration - of the'
Catholic -faith, although the delegation gave;
the strongest possible assurances that "al
though they would net join in theprosctiption
of'any class of men on account of their. reli
gious Sentiments, they did not recognize the
authority of tlie Pope, or of any other spiritual
functionary, to interfere in, any way, or to any
extent with the performance if their civil duties."
-These assurances, however, were not consid
ered satisfactory ; and the question of tkeir ad
mission wag elaborately argued in Convention.
The great body of the members froih.the South-
ern States sustained the Louisiana delegation,
and argued the necessity of maintaining the
principles of religious freedom to their fujlest
extent..
Mr. Rayner, of North Carolina, the only
prominent Southern member - who took the op
po-idtien
,ground, insisted that opposition , to
Catholicism, as inconsistent with Repub
lican institutions, was the very corner-stone of
tht , ' Kiioto=lVothind movemen t and ' that any
... . .
proceeding; which shotild ignore or be in-con
siSietii with this position, would be fatal to the
Oyder. In this he was sustained by a decided
niiijo - ritY Of the -members from the Northern .
tatesr‘,. It was suggested, but not formally
proposed', that as Mr. Giyarre was. the only
Catholic in the delegation, the other members
might be permitted to take their seats—with
the understanding that they would not attempt
to Change the ritual of the Order on this sub- -
jept. ' Pul thoy unanimously refuSed to come
into the Convention on any terms which should
exclude their colleague in'tOrisequencs - of his.
teligiousopinions. The result- wasobat. the-
Lonisiana delegation was excluded.
When the report - of this clien attack upon
religious toleration reached New Orleans, it
was Looked upon as ecarcelypossible: 'The
New' Orleans Bulletin, a staunch' Know-Noth
ing organ, on the receipt of:the , telegraph re
port said '.that some excitement was .created
in this city;. by the circulation of a report, of
the exclusion Of the ' Catholic delegation." It'
adds, "that the report must be 'a 'fabrication,
for we , cannot believe that a National Con
vention, composed of able, enlightened' and
patriotic man, .Would so completely stultifmait
self hopelessly, beyond tire power of redemption,
as to make mere religious opinions a test of po
litical fellowship. '' It cannot be, tid we i.hall
utterly refuse to place the least credit in the
rumor till we have the most( unquestionable
evidence , of the fact.'" But the report was
net a fabrication. ' It soon passed into.reality ,
—a reality verified by a nearly two-third vote
of the Convention. And yet, when the charge
is made' that religions intolerance is one of the
principal features 6f the Know-Nothing cru
sade, it is indignantly denied. The action of
the Grand Council,lowever; settles the ques
tion definitely, and hereafter. when m re
told that it is not the intention of Kno w-Not -
.a t
ing organizations to legislate upon the que -
tion of religious belief; the answer will be,
why then did the Grand Council make a na- ,
-tional issue upon the religious. belief of its
members ? If this is not to be followed by
further and more stringent action, the incipient
-steps would not have been taken. The men
who would deliberately exclude delegates
from a-convention for no other reason than a
difference in religious faith, are prepared to
legislate upon the same matter when once
they have the power to effect that end.
Whatiruits will follow such a course are
thus eloquently and truthfully pictured by the
able and
. pions Judge Longstreet, President of
theNississippi University. In his wcrds, it
is a "most desperate and dangerous agitation
—churches rending asunder—pastors and
flocks at variance—Christians losing all con
fidence' in each other--saints and *inners in
close enahrace—preachers of the same church
getting hut half congregations and half support
—one looking on approvingly, while another
is ahised—teachers tottering—their pupils in
midnight cliques—friendship severing—rage
taking the place of love—father against son—
brother against brother. These things now
are, and they proclaim, trumpet-tongued, what
is coming, if the monster he not crushed at_
once. And ail for what t In honest truth,
to get in the nuts, and get. out the ins. This
is the object of the Order. Well, it must take
its course till reason resumes her seat."—Phil

ARRIVAL OP 'SPF- 1 1.11ER PACIFIC.
THE RRPCLSE BEFORE SEBASTOPOL.
The news consists almost entirely of ac
counts of the intelligence already tran.smjtted
by telegraph, but correspondence does not come
down so late as the 18th June. on which day
t • allies made their unsuccessful attempt to
storm Sebastopol. The allied- losses on that
occasion were overrated, yet the official lists
of killed and wounded foot up, considerably
over 4.000 men.
Lord Paiimurc gives a nominal list, showing
93 officers killed and wounded, and 150 mis
sing (taken prisoners.) Pelissier names 37
French officers killed, 66 officers wounded, 17
officers missing (prisoners), 1,544 private men
killed and missing, 3141,644 wounded. Total
English honi de conabti4 - 1,434; French, 3,237--
both, 4,774 men. Generals Me.Yran and Bru
net were severely wounded.
The accounts yet to hand do not materially'
vary' the first announcement of the repulse of
the allies, excepting as • regards the number of
the slain.—Details are anxiously looked'for in
England and France„ inasmuch as sundry dis
agreeable rumors are in circulation. ,In
,Paris
it_ was repeated that the failure was, in a meas
ure at least, owing errors coininitted by-,the
British commanding officers. Their errors aro
described as two-fold—first, in not having had
fascines provided for, filling up the trench with
in the Redan t and next, not, having immedi
ately apprised the French commander that they
fciund it necessary to retire.—The British, on
their side, say that they - took the Redan, but
could not hold it hecause, the French failed to
silence the Malakoff.
Notwithstanding this check, the investing
army keep in good spirit, and do not permit
their repulse to stay the progress of the siege.
Lord Raglan was-reported to be dangerous]
ill, and has asked to be recalled, but the report
tit-ered . .t-t-ed,---Sir-George Brown is also
on the sick list.
The Russian •vovernment publishes a des
patch from Prince Gortschakoff, dated the
•• • 0 I S v I , -
nouncing that the fire of the allies had all but
ceased.. A small Russian reinforcement of in
fantry is moving.-down to Sebastopol. Owing
to the difficulty of feeding large corps in the
Crimea, since the operations of the allies in the
Black Sea. -the . governMent has given an in
creased extension to the. camp at Nicoleietf,
assembling . there the divisions which would
otherwise be 4,ncamped in theTauric Peninsula.
POSITION OF' AUSTRIA.
The Austrian alliance, it is now evident, is
a rope of sand. She i.vishes well to the West
ern Powers, but is disbanding her army. She
sends felicitations to Paris And to London when
fortune favors the allies, but will not .fight.
She has possession of the. Principalities, and
shows no present or proximate intention of
giving them up, while the harshness of her
rule over the unfortunate natives is crying to
heaven for vengeance;
The news of the repulse at Sebastopol only
had a momentary effect on the funds, and none
on business generally.: Confidence remains
unshaken that no long time can- elapse . until
Sebastopol shalt be in the hands of:the hesitg=
ers, when strong hopes are entertainA that
the termination of the war will .speedily
and thus destroy the causes of, dullness .in
trade., Tlet, harvest ,pro, ets..eyea where

weather England is nuw enjoying is very as
suring. Rates of interest in the money mar
ket retuain unchanged,and capital is abundant.
FRANCE.
The number of perions who visited the Ex
hibition on the 25th is stated to be considera
bly over 70,000.
The number of sick and wounded French
soldiers embarked - at liamiesch from the be
ginning of the war to the present time, Amounts
to nearly 43,000.
11.1Attstmaxs, June 23. •
Orders have been
received here to prepare an additional corpstr
arniCe of 50,000 men. Government has, more
over, c:lartered 60-of the steamboats plying on
the Rhone, which, it is said, are to be des
patched to the Sea of lizofi, with a view to ul
terior operations, which will carry the war
farther into the enemy's dominions. The Em
peror Napoleon 111. is determined to spare no
sacrifice of men or money in order to bring the
war to a speedy conclusion, and to compel the
enemy to sue for peace.
Shocking Occurrence at a Mormon
Baptism.
The Cincinnati Times of the 2d says: "About
half-past 5 o'clock, yesterday morning, a
party of Mormons, numbering probably
about fifty, under the direction of Elder 11.
Greenholy, crossed the river by Capt.. Air's
ferry, for the purpose of administering baptism
to some eight or ten converts: They proceed
ed up. the river bank to the foot of East row,
where the converts, composed of both males
and females, were prepared for baptism. The,
preparation was indecent, to say the least.
Both men and women were required to strip
to their linen. in the midst of the crowd and
upon the. river bank.
"The elder led an old man, aged about fifty
years, by the name of Alexander Williams.
who resided near the corner of Western row
and Front street, into the water, and baptized
him according to the ceremonies of the faith.
After this the old man, who was a g ood swim
mer, struck out' nto the water, for the pur
pose, it is said, of taking a swim*: - It is - sup.
posed that his drawers slipped down over his
feet, which destroy jog his motion, caused him
to sink. His son, also named Alexander, aged
23 years, and who was stripped for baptism,
seeing his father sinking, plunged in after him.
He could not swim at all, and getting into
deep water, immediately sank and drowned
before his father.
"Dragging, hooks were obtained as soon as
possible, and in about an hour's time both
bodies were recovered. Coroner Foster, of
Campbell. county, held an inquest over the
bodies, and the jury returned a verdict of ac
cidental drowning. • The bodies were delivered
over to a son and brother, who were present
at the holding of the inquest."

oorrespondent of the Boston Transcript, - who
is now visiting the latter city. says,:
"I was assured that the bullion now in the

Bank of England, and the estimated value of
gems and jewels is almost rabRIOUS. before

1 COAL FROM .KErrucKy.--The Philadelphia
i Inquirer states that parties are now in that
! city whose object is to obtain funds for mining
the rich bituminous coal on the south bank of
the Ohio river, 150 miles above Cairo, in Ken
tucky They propose to bring their coal to
Philadelphia, via New Orleans, . and sell it in
!the former city at $6 per ton, and then make
a profit of $1 07 a ton. The Inquirer seems
to think this coal will be a dangerous compet
itor with the bituminous coal of Pennsylvania.
. as it is proposed to sell at about the same price.
SEVERE HAIL STORM.—The Romney Argos
gives an account of a terrible hail an'd 'rain
storm that passed over a: portion of Hardy
county, Va., a few days ago, The hail is said
to have been the size* of hen's eggs, and did
serious. damage to the crops. Mr. George
Judy had his grain -house, with 25 or 30 bush.
els of wheat, swept_off. Also, in Stafford
county, Va., much damp) was done.
A COLI.E.GE IN AFRICA.—Strong efforts are
being made in various parts of the United
States to endow a college in Liberia, and it

quested in an agitated manner. permission of
the proprietor to go below into the cellar,
