Comovusiss..—Spaulding, tbeaishop,ofi
Kentucky, recently called Professor Morse to
account for asserting that Gen. Lafayette once
saidithat ever the !beetle:ref this country
are ruined, it will be by theßotnish Priest."
Through the LouisiSle Courier 'the Peofiumor •
proves that Lafayette did use the expression,
and also makes it appear that Bishop Spauld
ing's evidence to the contrary is unWorthy of
belief, The Professor is still more entitledio
belief, from the fact that Gen. Lafayetbs via
a French Catholic, fully alive to the machi
nations of Jesuiticid priests; independent
enough of their influence to express boldly
his detestation, of them ; the bosom friend of
Washington; and with that friend entertaining
a natural 'repugnance to those representatives
of Rome, and enemies of Republicanism.—
The modern history of every country on the
face of the globe, where Jesuitism has laid
it . kand, proves hoW withering and blighting
are its influences. Gen. Harrison, while re
presenting this country in Bogota, bore wit•
ness to the opposition of Ronxish priests to
germs of liberal feeling which-were finding a
place in the bosoms of the , people i -and, the
necessity which was 'perceived orbanishing
the priests before any progress could be made
in securing Liberty, social and political. It
is up-hill work for the Romish hierarchy to
attempt the denial of facts; for they are stub.
born things. Bishop Spaulding has found
them so, in his controversy with' Professor
Morse ; and atJohn, , Aichbishop of New
York," (lordly title to be countenanced in a
Republic,) has been 4 assisted to a similar dis
covery, through the agency of Senator Brooks,
of New York. ' ,

tiE CAUSE IN MANE.—A State Mass Tem
perance Convention. will be held at Bangor,
June 26th and 27th,fortle purpose of making
"arrangeinents for the coming campaign in
Maine. The recent Legislature of Maine,
passed a new and. stringent Liquor 'Law,'
which is being enforced with,vigor tlkoughout
the State. The Portland Journal says that
the Law in the hands of the new city govern 1
I
ment works well: 'A marked and decided
change for the better has come over Portland.
-!.-
Their present. administration was inaugurated i
on the 10th of April, a little more than. one
month ago, and already there is no rumshop '
in Portland, except of the very lowest kind,
and a few of thoSe continue, kept only in the .l
most - Secret manner. ;Liquors have ceased
entirely to come into the eity,except the smalli
quantities that may if concealed in - tritrilts,
/..
valises, and pockets. il , kt present, the quie
tude of the city is re .. rkable, says the Ann..;
. nal, both by day and ly ; night i the watch and'
police testitying to the fact that' they never
saw it so Much so before, while _ building and
_,
business are remarkably active. This must
effectually silence the croaking's . of 'rummies,
who perseveringly exhibit Portland as a proof
that a stringent liquor law has no effect upon
the diminution of crime. Experience proves
that a State or City, is never so prosperous
their jail; so tenantless, as when a 'stringent
liquiir law .is in full force. Portland — is a
striking ilhistration of the truth of. the asser
lion. ,

A &ammo Etex.--Henry C. Carey, Fag.,
says ' - i---"The more gold that eatnes from Cali

system that closes the mills.aitd formes of
the country, that destroys the-poirer of asso

that our factories, founderies *ld workshops
should be adequately protected, and released
,from the cinerous berthen which the existing .
free tradd tariff impoies. Americans, send
to Congress, men Who will adept a system of
adequate protection to our manufacturing in
terests, iniplace of the existing ruinous tariff.
Facts like` those stated by gr.'etirey, deserve
serious consideration, and shquld animate the
people to action on the question of an ade
quate Protective Tariff. The piosperityi the

THE NEW YORK LIQUOR beAutas.—Their
plan caul the 4th of July, when liquor selling
becomes Pegs], according the Mirroi• is as
follows:-.4 •
- ! ,
"Mr. A. the morning of the sth of July will
continue to rell.all sorts of liquors, in all quanti
ties, as nstiaL A _Carson League spy comes smel
t ling and tasting around, for the purpose of making
his complaint against Mr. E. to the authorities.--
By and by in comps an officer of tho late; and pro
ceeds to dgrey Mr. A's liquors; whereupon the
)
aggrievedi arty calls in some two or three of his
most respectable neighbors, and Makes them sworn
appraisers:of his wasted property. He then will
instantly commence a snit for damages against the
State; and we understand that Mr. Charles O'Con
nor, andseveral of our old and ablest lawyers are
willing to risk their legal reputations upon the
recovery of damageit t ; to the uttermost farthing."
.It seems almost a pity to spoil so beautiful
a modus :operandi of the New York liquor
dealers, for continuing the sale of intoxicating
liquors, contrary to law; blft it must be under
stood that the above is - Very Well, except that
part of. Which relates to bringing an action
agaifist the State, which a citizen cannot do
under the Constitution. The remedy will be
,
'against the officer of the State, who in his turn
will.require security from tho'Se who direct his
movements. . ‘:
THE Srnaot. LAw.—A supplement to. this
lard was :passed at the rem* session. of the
Legislatnre, - continuing the itipedendent school
districts now in existence;,and authorizing
the erection of new districts by the Court Of
Quarter Sessions, on the application of twenty
citizens, by a process similar to that pursued
in erecting nw townships.'. The Pennsylva
nia School JOurnal—published_in-LMicaster,
is made the official organ of the School De
partmerit for the publication of all decisions,
notices, &c.,..emanating therefrom. By a sec
tion of lie same act all -boroughs and town
ships, now conueeted--in the assessments of
countOaies, Alan hereafter be separate and
independent.of each other for such purposes
and for
- School purposes ; each to elect its own
assessor; In fact it is presumed, this will

same act exempted from taxation for school
purposes

Our Pawtucket friend writes a little ski ray, , , hut
he is only in the predica!tuent of a good many oth
ersf.who puichased Coal last year. We admit that
a great deal of COal was shipped in a , most i`as
caOy manner, not,only from-this, but from nearly
all:the Regions last yettl . We . etin assure ilm;
s ever, / that we' bad nothing. to do with it
--rind therefore there is no necessity of "blow
bag! us up." We cMmit' ) that it is very lad policy,
oven under nay eiretildstances, , to send Coal to
mt4iisct in bad order, and the trade everywhere is
reaping the conTestnencesi. This year unusual dare
inui to be taken, and ti4xpenses of cleansing in
cr&ased, while tip priee of coal is eonsidcrably
ditipiniShed. and dealeis abroad are found about
twlee as faitidiouS as .dyer they were, about t the
coddition the Cotil is shipped in. The . shippers
iihjo inform us. that Coal never was shipped in lest-.
tericondition from this Region than it now isox l nd
therefore the consumers abroad will receive a Much
boder article at a lower Tato. One of the gr'eat
evils under which the Scbtiyikill Coal Trade labors ;
is the mixing of Coals at Port Richmond. Minty
of !the dealers there, !mp a portion of prime Coal,
and then purchase an inferior article, and ndi the
two together to equalize the prices—and in ionic
instances the same course of policy is adopted in
,ttits Region, where the Coal froni distinct and: dif
