SATCRDAT. APRIL Sal. 1
PAPIST SOPECESTBY.
The last number of the Register contains a
singularly logic& communication from a
Roman Catholic contributor, signing himself
"Consideration."
purports to be a 'disquisidon upon the merits
of a recent article upon priestcraft, published
in the Journal; aud.Attempts in a facetious
strain, to controvert s.atementa contained in
our article. In order to show "Consideration"
the impression mati i e . l. his logical esominuni
eation.on our mind, we wevid: ask his atten
don to a few facts, elicited by a inrusal,of
his sophistical contribution tb the Register.
In regard VI the transformation of 'the
bread and wine.statement, we are cognizant
of the action of au intelligent layman of
the Roman Catholic church, resident, here,
who upon being asked if he believed
that his priest possessed the power of
changing . the wafer literally into flesh, 're
plied in the negative. Upon being told that
the fact of the transformation was one of the
essential doctrines of the Roman Catholic
Churcii, he communicated with a fellow lay
man in regaid theinatter, and received for
his information, the reply, "certainly, we must
believe it." The person we refer to, too in
telligent to believe any such absurdity, and
feeling astired that other dogmas of the church
were equally as .untenabla, withdrew, and has
since seceded abut the Popish doctrines, to
which are attached so many errors, detrithen
tal to the interests of the . laity of the Cath
olic church.
"Consideration'says:—
"The editor of the Miners'
. .Intirnoi is violent in his
denunciations of. the Catholic clergy for an Ima7.lnasy
withholding of the sacred scriptdres from the laity.—
Now, with my Catholic Bible in one hand, recommended
to me by those clergy azainst whom he is so violent, and
the Miner? Jour', et/ to the other, informing me that said
clergy would not allow me to have it. leads me to the
conclusion that the editor is well versed in Bannan's In
verted
•
Indeed? It appears to us that if "Consid
eration" intends by this statement—supposing
it trae. : ---to convey the idea that the Roman
Catholic clergy recommend or even permit
the laity as a mass, to. read whit( he calls the
Catholic Bible, in the vernacular Or vulgar
ton^_me, he is guilty of an infringement of the
`truth, ~t) the effect that when the truth is told
with the intention of. deceiving, it is, in effect,
a falsehood. "Ccpsideration" may be an ex
ception to
.the r6le of the Roman Catholic
Church in this matter, and the exception
proves the existence of the rule. The rule
to which we refer is thus laid down by the
highest authority' known , to the Roman Cath
olic' Church, viz;—the Council of Trent:—
"AP espnicnco •• has shown thlt the Indiscriminate
reading et the Bible in the vulgar longue. is, on account
of the mshness of Men, more disadvantageous than pro
fitable, it will depend upon the bishops or the inqulsltor,
who will have an understanding on the subject with the
• cure or the confessor. to permit this reading to those per
sons whom they will judge able to undl , rtalie it without
'danger. and who will gin from it an inerease of faith
and piety. This peiluission will he given in writing.—
Whoever. without having re,:eieee a permission Of this
imam. will fibre to read or pssttss a Bible. cannot Neely..
th o ats dntt m of his sins until he has ret urne>l IMO:114u
to his cure sellers. who, Mahout haring the said
permission. shall. sell the Bible. timislated into the vub
.gar ton.rue. -se ;he prig r el' their ”b,s, which will
be w't apart by ltu. iisti•pc ler pi^us pnrposes: they will
alsoltSliakle to other penalties. according te`the nature
ni 111, rtilltiquency, mei agreeable to the judgment o f the
bishop. The priests them,elves'oan neither read nor buy
s 111,10 wjthont the permission et their superlors.— ,
C Peg. IV.
•
N o w, ot4 thing i s certain, that it' '• wsid-
eration" is .1. Roman Catholic, he dare not de
' ny the binding authority of this .canon or
regulation, for he• professes his belief (see
creed Of Pius IV) in, the following words:likeWise undoubtedly rece . iye and profess
all other things, delivered, defined. and de,
cured by the sacred canons and general coun
cils, and particularly by the holy councils of
Trent.' This 'Bible thus interdicted, and
taken from the laity, is:lxhat "Consideration . '
eallsthe Catholic Bible. How itethe face of the
• exisrence of suet a prohibitory law, as the one
adduced above, to prove the stability of our po
sition on this question, can -Consideration" at
nouPt to induce us to crelit his statement, that
the priests recommend and . place Bihles in the
hands of the mass of the laity of the Catholic
church? The priesthood may., to maintain
appearances in the sight of the A taerican
'people, 'WI-Mit the laity, to a certain extent,.
to have in their possession, under restrictions
- peeuliar to the Roman Catholic Church
for instance, a pocket Bible, time first
edition 'of which ever issued in this_ country,
was announced in the Boston Pilot, some . six
months since. The Flemish testathent cir
•culated in Europei. is compiled and 'notes
appended to suit the peculiai view .of the
Catholic hierarchy 'so that no danger to their
power need ho apprehended. ,"Considera
.tion- should know that the Opposition'to the
Bible; finds its sourcfat the fountain head of
the Roman Catholic. church ; flows 'on gath
ering strength from the thousands of Jesuiti
cal priests, unfaithful shepherds, who'seek an
aggrandizement of their own power, rather
than. he spiritual welfare of the flocks .com•
iiiitted to their care,—until the who
really are desirous of seeking the truth, are
swept off, and euguiphed iu the flood of iglu:l
- ranee and prejudice; spite of exertions
to save themselves. When will the laity of
the catholic church have the manliness and
independence to - crush the, despotic, power
which enslaves aid degrades them? We .
trust their eyes will be fully opened ere long;
and that in this 'country at least, they will'
soon see the necessity of movingtuergetically
in the matter. The laity and not the Mem
chy'of the Catholic' church, should rule in
mere`temporal mattcrs ;and we are much mis
taken if such will not eventually be the case.
Again, "Consideration'' says:
As to the humiliating arektacie of Catholics reginittl
iniihe State not to interfere in tiro management of their
chur'h`preperti• I would consider it meritorious mtd•a
convincing proof of their implicit confidence in their
clergy." .
So would we, were we, not satisfied that the
recent request of the Catholics of Philadel
phia, asking the State not to interfere in the
Inanagement of their church property, wail
forced front them by the Catholic clergyfon
pain of excommunication, curse , - etc./'But
:apart front this bingl compulsory proceeding
it is evident from recent Catholie/Petitions
-and letters, in relaffou to church property and
their hierarchy, in Idassachutetts and New
York, that the laity aiegaini4 independence,-
and losing confidence .theiF clergy, by de
termining to-take their , property into
their own hands„and / thanaging it to suit them
selves. Ind it teed hardly cache 'surprise,
when we considers tO what a disgracefhl 'extent
the power of, the Runtish clergy has been car
ried.' How commpn it had become for lay
men to be expelled from their own property;
the consolations of tlieir religion withheld
front them on The most affecting occasions;
aultinally driven to the last extremity, com
pelled to yield a passive obedience to what
. they felt was almost unendurable. Incidents
could he ptesented, local, in soinerkeases, to
prove the unwarrantable interference, of the
, il elergy in the temporal matters of the laity.—
And yet, in, spite of facts which can be ad
duced by iteores, Archbishop HyullEs would
have ;us ii)elieve that .the .Roman Catholic
'clergy never resort to coercion i . . .
A single case to which we Would refer, is
that of a German, who while his child was
king dead, requested his priest to officiate at
funeral: 'fhw priest refused to tteced
the tiitlicr's desire, unless he was paid two
dollars, and actually kept the man in. sus
and harra.ised him for a day, until the

The Aid communication
laity of the Catholic church are becoming
wearied of the yoke which they have works()
patiently heretofore ; losing cdnfideece in thOrl
clergy, and seeking: to manage church ruht-i
tern for themselves? We think not; and - if
"Consideration" was aslindependent a Catho
lic as Mr. LE Cox - rantt . , and the rest of the
trustees of the St. Lotus Church, of Buffalo,
and dared express an unbiassed opinion, he
would acknowledge , tbat our logic in the mat
ter is far from beinejnverted."
1. •
The well known oppOsttion of the 'lonian
•
Catholic clergy, to the. Manner in which our
I . •
Public Schools should be conducted, is milli
-
cient answer to "Consideration" on that point.
This . bulwark of our national -liberties is im•
pregnable to the assaults of Rome, and we
have no fear of priesteraft as regards -them.
We warn the Catholic laity to turn a deaf ear
to the sophistry of that hierarchy, which would
array them in . .oppositiciu to , this most elter
ished institution. Believe us the interests,
the happiness of yOur Children in the future,
depend Much upou your action in this Oat
ter. We envy not that' man who will permit
himself to be influenced to such. au extent
contrary to his better judgment, as to jeop
ardize the welfare of tho'se linked to hint: by
ties of blood, in order i 4 add to 4 ) e poWet of
an arrogant and corrupt priesthood. This is
worthv'the serious 'conSideration of the Cath-
olic laity. •
"Consideration" ,further says: ; I
"Irish Catholics can refer with pride and plensitro‘ tb
their past political history in , this- tot:ifty; They - *ere
part and parcel of that Democratic party whose leaqiing
policy has. been vindiatted by the very best crlierion,

Is it not notorious that the Trish Catholics have the es
teem of the still renialtiirur. Democratic party, and 'that
said party have full confidence In their political virtue?"
This is simply ridiculous!' A mere glance
at the political . histbry ht -this country,. either
State or Isiational, will disclose what the action

"loaVes and fishes," spkbey have shaped their

power was paramoittlt,khere the Irish Catho
lics flocked; and Wen(Shoulder to shottlder
'in other sections with the Vhig party, hen
their interests inclined! thent ..... t:;l l A course.
We are certainly Most curious Pain ivhat
tlie mass of the Irish Catholics know of the
policy that led to; the 'establishment of the
United:States Bank; Or of the questionof
Protective Tariff. It I,t." , as sufficient for them
that. the Democratic party, with which - ithey
Were identified, much in the character ofelortli
and serf t of the "Ohl country;" oPposed those
measures; they did too, without Compre
hending their merits, and utterly:ignorant of
the effect a protective Itnriff would have :upon
the industrial interest:3 Of the country. What
. a farce! It plades the • Irish CatholiCs to.
which 'Consideration l s;7 eloquently infers,
either in the light, of serfs or mails; serfs of
the, Deinocratic party4or tools of the Ifritish
government; hired of Ponents to thelirotee
tiOn of American indtiStry. One reader's can
decide which is the most enviable'position for
the gentlemen who "eon refer with Pridif and
pleasure to their past Political history in this
country."
• In conclusion, we !nay remark, that •! Con
sideration" must be peculiarly oldivious ; to the
position of the .Democratic party, and i 4 gen
eral condition of, political matters. tp! have
,
permitteu tnet l iact to escape his observation,
t hat no Irishman flanis at this , momentAo ask
office; that the niass Of Irish Catholis are
only retained to servei the purpose of the par-1
ty, by their votes, and!tinit they, ore thortiughly
despised by the Denni l ratie parts l
even while
that party uses them. 1 1 - The situation pt the
Irish Catholi - cs at prifsent, can hardly be re-'
• i
(erred to by "Consideration,.. with pride and
pleasure, if they hap Pen to: be !his political
cronies. Their Position is now, work without
pay, todyolster uti tlie declining' fortunes of
their Patrons. For the sake of the feeliagS of
his colleagues-, "Consideration" should` never
again refer to the - posiiion of Irish., Cath
olics in the Demoeratin party. • -
CORPORATIONS; IMPROVEMENT COM-
M.*. &c.
Last week, we published two tills relating
to Improvement Conipanies in this Region.
Thesel Companies originate - with the land
holde6 who are not rtiVageil in the COaLbtis
iness, and are generally non-residents the
County. The object seems more.particultirly,
to create a large eapital,*and .issue stock by
which' they. may, read an income from the
sales 'of the stock, instead of i working the
lands. If such is not : the case,: why's it neces
sary to create a &Alteration with large amounts
of - capital, (More than four times the value
of the lands,) merely to improve them. The
outlay. fur preparing , Collieries,land sinking
Shafts, is not half SO heavy as is purpoSely
represented by speculittors. The sinking of
the Carey Shaft* the MeGinnesColliery,—a
-depth of less than 450 feet,- - --did not, and
should not have cost ov;el. $30,060 ; and with
the necessary machinery to takeout per day
front 800 to 1000 tons of Coal, not over $75,-
000. Twelve years since, an estimate 'of the
expense was made by one of our most careful
Coal operators. Who then .!ontemplated taking
the work in hand, and he estitruited the entire"
expense at not more than $62,000, of w,4
sum he set apart $30,000 for sinking and"rre
paring the shaft for Work. , •

e ,
tnrown in at about four tinter its true value,
and a stock oreatedj which never
• will play
cent of income to the stockholders. It may'
enable the landholder to put 'money in his
pocket; but the public would be most shame-,
fully" swindled; in fact, robbed:of their money.
• WC 110 LC repeat the' l assertion, and defy con
tradiction from an!joinarter—Mat no Coal or
Invorentent annpnity has erer Paid a

the adjoining Anthracite Coal Pegionsi or in ,
any (!f: the Bituminons Coal Regions in the
State, except where the binds were purchased

The Combola,,COMpanv asks fig a capital

that the proprietors, of the land would pocket

M.t!'.
Basins are within the•reachi of individnal en
terprise, because, the lowest veins deimit lie
deeper than from . 2to `:500 feet. In th*Peach
Mountain and Oak Hill range, the Olpy, Ash
Coal can be reached at a depth of 241 400
feet by shafts, in the Basin, altheitgli the.
White Ash Mammoth Vein lies depth
of 800, to 1000 feet. In the Third;: Basin,
south from the Broad Mountain, called the
Lewis Vein Basin, the depth of a,4aft to
strike the Red Ash Coal, would be only a few
hundred feet, although the Mammoth: White
Ash Vein lies at a *depth of from • 1000 to .
12.00 feet. In the two Southern BO** the
Red Ash Veins • can be struck at a 'depth 'of
a few hundred feet, by shafts, although the
Mammoth White Ash Vein lies at * depth
of from 1200 to 2000' feet. • We speak onhe
deepest portions of the Basins. Attire Broad
Mountain Basin, there are 64 feet of goal, all
'of which can be struck at a depth otll or 300
feet in the deepest pert of the Basin;:;
The late Samuel B. Fisher, furniglied us
with an estimate of the number. of ! veins of
Coal in the different Basins, some tsi4 Tears
since, from which we glean the Aillowing
facts: • •••-,
In the Broad Mountain Basin, thee are 9
distinct veins Of Coal; aggregate thickness,
64 feet. This can all be reached in the deep
est_ part of the Basin' ? by hafts of not over
.r,
200'feet in depth.
In the Mine Hill Region the nuinber of
veins is the same, with the same aggregate
.
quantity of Coal.—and all reached ata'depth'
• • ~;,. _
of less than 500 feet.'
In the Peach Mountain and Oak MI range
there are abmit 18 veins, making 14 : feet of
Coal all of, whict. can be reached atifrom 200
td 1000 feet from the' surface.
In the Southern 'Bitsins,there arfrom 25
to 2,7 veins, (if, tile White and Otey Ash:
veins, underlie thelted . Ash, which iL is now
generally conceded they do) all of which can
be reached in a shaft, varying fron 200 to
"2000 feet. ' ' •
Now, the reader must rementherlthatit is
not necessary to sink Shafts immediately, to
the entire depth of .the Basins—partieularly
in the Southern sections of the U loons:
None but an insane person',
patty speculator,) would ever dreatiof such
a project. If Mr.: Fisher's e l stimi►te of the
number of veins is correct, wfd.htive:itherfact
that in a depth of' 2000 feet, 27 veinkOf Coal
would be penetrated,. atnmintingin ttie aggre- 1
gate thickness to 150 feet of Coal4rOvidedi
they continue of the same thickneo at this
depth, as they are at the points firsKoPened.
To sink Shafts in the Southern_ *Sins, of
...
course the first vein struck wcialtl ba' .; .worked,
and the Shaft continued to the 1141. The
proceeds of the working of the firkt would
pay for oinking the Shaft Ito thy; second
vein, and then that . conld be Iworked Also.—
The Shaft could thus prOgrss ;gradually as
the wants of the CAEery required, i4td all the
expenses . paid out of the proceeds ofßhe reats,
with but a picderate outlay at the eli:!nmence ,,
meat. The upper:veios r must be worked ou
first; irangways driven from; theirand th
breasts worked up, to run o 4 airlutits, • 1
these air shafts would be driven up4roin.one
vein to the other, as the different:Xeins are
worked. This is, the only.feasibliP plan b),
which the Southern Coal Basin can be worked
- - - -
by means of Shafts—and there is 4 greater
necessity for the incorporation oledmpanies
to sink Shafts than there is fOr sinliihig Slopes!

made a ferocious ittack upon a blocks of miners'

fired them. The houses were completely destroyed.

It is that much admired and enterprising town

INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICTS
TWcart•ektf the I,l•atractril delay in the payment
of the: State appropriation
- As the !several School districts are gientlyr in
want of their ieiipective shares of the State Ap
propriation, and4is the Directors have complied
with the law in every particular, to entitle them
to it, it is hut proper and just that all should - be
infOrmial why it is still: withhehl.
I have ;spent_ considerable time, and written a
number or lettiirs in order to obtain the desired
informatiUn: but find those really in fault are'no
longer connected; with the office tai whichthe error
is
chargeable.
By an examination of the records, - in the School
department at Harrisburg. I find that one inde
pendent district, has„apparently, been receiving
the iappropriation of the whole township, when.
that, amount should have been divided among few
different districts in that township. Some districts
receive a lioulde share of• the appropriation, from
the fact that they are independent dirtrictis under
special' nnmcs, and still retain the name of the
township I trom which they were taken. Such are
twice entered unilie books.
Though there are more districts from Schuylkill
Cmfrity, enterer} on the books than there are in it,
:yet there : is, one which ht S never 'been entered.
Some, therefore, receive , much more than their
and other's receive much less.
This must result from the neglect of duty on
the,part some one, and it cannot he amiss to
find' l'whose door the fault lies.
Let,it he understood that an independent dis
trict. is rdie erected by special Act of Legislature,
out: of tt , , part ; of one, or parts of two or tours'
toWnshipii. One independent district in Schuyl
kilo-.:ounty is composed of the parts of four dif
ferebt adjoining townships. A. rcytt/ar School
district i,i of township limits.
The law provides that Axmem.rs shall return the
number of taxables in the respective School ,dis
trie'ts. Assessors are not elected for school .dis
tricts, but fur entire townships and it would he
a very difficult task for them to separate the list
of inxahles into threettr four different classes, de
noting the Sehtiol•distriet to'which they.behing.
Pur example IL long township has an indepen
dent district in each end, and, a slice taken from
one' side hf it, to be incorporated with a part of
the;ndjohring township to form a third, while the
'remaining portion constitutesl fourth district.
The difficulty an A . ssessor - Would, experience in
this case, maybe imagined when we take into
consideration the zigzag lineteby which such dis
tricts are separated, and that many persons,thnugh
jhey know what township they are in,,are at a loss
to know 'the name of the School district. Hence
theSe officers, or some of theM, meeting with these,
similar, Cr worse difficulties, have abandoned this
'Part of 'their duty, and the consequence is; no part
of Our appropriation can be paid Until the number
of. taxahles, iMelich district, and the townships of
which they form a part, are ascertained, •
'To effect this, the Deputy Superiiitendent, Coun
ty Clerk and myself have all joined
our:effort& and though some advances towards that
end have been made, yet things may be said to be
in ittatu quo. . .
It is h:opod however, that two ur three weeks at
most, will find them in their 'right shape, and war
rants for the appropriation in the hands of every
School district Treasurer. Alnuo.

NKIV YORK, April 17th, MIS.
j.
DKM; JOKRNAL :—The deed is done—the fact
actomplished. As far as legislative action and.
gu, ormitiiiial signature is concerned, the Liquor
Law is a tangible reality—with all' its evils and
objections—with all its benefits and advantages it
stands part and parcel of the statutes of the Em
pitle State. ' .
We are now to witness the afterplay—the exer
•
tions which will strenuously be made , to annul its
action. ! Already we see the throes of convulsive
efforts Upon every side. Notito of a bill provi
ding foe kts repeal has alrpdy been introduced in
to our Legislature—it has been suggested that in-'
junetions should he served on all the judiciary of
the ,State, restraining them from rendering any
dehision uuddr the law, until its constitutionality
AMR have been tested. The Liquor' interest of
our own city, have determined to continue their
sales'in, opposition to the law, and to test its valid
ity in the highest tribunals of the land.
The law has' aroused the Americanism, if we
may so call is, of .vast numbers—men Who seldom
drink ium, but who look upon any o attempt to
force abstinence down their throats, asi an. abridg
ment of those libertil) . 's guarntitiedhy the National
Declaration. We past confess that we think the
iliiy chosen for its introduction, , evinces great
want of judgment. The Fourth of July is the.
very wont day possible for the inauguration of a
lair, which very many are inclined to class (rlie
t4r justly or not, of course we do not pretend: to
sac,) with each impositions as the Stamp Act and
die Cargoes of Tea.
,lon Saturday evening last, a densely crowded
meting was held at the Astor House to devise
measures preliminary to testing the constitution
ality of the ;recent law. Our Hotel proprietors
and heavy merchants in that line, were present,
and a Committee was appointed to secure the best
legal talent possible, as advice sand assistance.
Otio object of the meeting was stated to bo the
raising of a liberal fund towards defraying. thee:-i °
pnses:of their course of action. Nine thonsandl !
di llars were subscribed on the spot, and money itil
unlimited amounts is forthcoming whOnever need-=
ed. Cemmittees . were also appointed to 'act inl;
etinjunetion with similar committees of the retaill
dealerS and distillers. An adjournment was =alai
until the present wetli. Great energy and deter
minatibn characterized their proceedings. •
It hiss been suggested ton raise the price of hoard
in our hotels to three dollars per day, in view (;V,,
the passage of the Liquor Law. It is well known'
that our houses do not pay without' the immense,
piotite which the sale of their wines and liquors;
