The following following staternent we pub ish at th i e
request of Dr. O'Gorman. -We lumi to feel
ing one way nor the other, as regards'the par
ties in the matter; but' the prinCiple involre
in the case, we consider of the utmost irnpor,
tance to the Ibity of the Catholic cliurch.+
The suit brought by Dr. O'Gorman' again st
Father Morris, of Tamaqua, which wiz( mad i e
the subject of arbitration in this horoug h re
cently, was actuated by a denunciation made
by Priest Morris against Dr. O'Gorman, froth
the altar.. The priest, ii is asserted, calleri
upon the people not to patronise•the'Doctor l i
asserted that he was no regular physiCian; but
an imposter, &c. Damages iyerelaid at $20,-
000, and the case was arbitrated in 'this bo
rough several dayi.since.. Five or priests
were present,' with a number of "wilnessesk
and all were well plied with liquor; to keep
them; we presume, in proper trim for the o/-
elision. This case, *hitch luis.not bCen deci
ded yet, embraces the important qUestioii
whether Roman Catholic priests have ,the
right to denounce men from the pulpit, to thh
injury of their business, and for the' purposl3
of favoring other parties. This priest Morris
has a peculiar faculty of keeping himself 'lir
hot water with his congregation; this case m il t
being the•first, as our ,citizens are .aware, f
the character. Last year he was convic

ing - out of the case has been pending sin
against the priest. But we ask attention t
the following communication from Dr. O'Go -
man, in reference to the recent case of arb
tration referred td :
TO THE EDITORS OF THE MINERS'4OETRE .
Gentlemen:—You will please give, the,fOl
lowing statement a place itt your valuabl
journal. An outrageous and aggravated cas
of libel, at the suit of Dr. O'Gorman againA
the Rev ; James F. Morrii, pastor of the Cat.- olio church at Tamaqua, was arlitrated her•
on June 27th. •,Priest Morris .had a host ofi
witnesses in' attendance, and also a bench al
lawyers emploded upon the occasion a,„frain.t
the Doctor; the object being to prove by hi.
witnesses or party, that the Doctor *as a ma
of bad, character, a drunkard, a pretende
dishonest, And 'so forth. To set aside th
Doetor'S action, if possible, and to escape th
penalty of the law in such eases,'which th •
Rev. Mr. Morris has grossly violated in attar
ing the D4tor publicly, and to injure his pr.-
fessional character, priest Morris endeavors
to show, bit-every dishonest and foul mean.,
that the DOetor was a man of bad character;
and that he, priest Morris, was only perfbrn,l
ing his duty to his flock in denouncing this
bad man; although the Doctor has honoth.l4
obtained his Diplomas from Dublin and Lor , r
don. Has it come to this, that priest Morrii
can rob' a man of his character and strip.hirn
of his birth-right, and even order
. to put
death in our midst by priestly rule, and prier
•Morris; like the rest of his brotherhood, will•
tell the public it is only 'performing his duty;!
The infamy of this doctrine will not suit fife:
• present enlightened age, although thiS
organised system is to trample on any one!
seeking justice.. When Rev. Mr._Morris found
that he had to account to the law which- he
had outraged in denouncing and destroying , 1
the Doctor's character, he brought forward his;
party, and of course a 'number of priests tel .

Shaughnessy, of Pittston, commenced by en
deavoring-to show that the Doctor _wits a bad
character, which on cross:examination, he'
Rev. Mr.' G'ShaughneSsy-said he only heard
from his people. What a shame for a priest
to come before a court to give such evidence.
Rev. Mr. Borges, from Wilkesbarre, and the
ley. Mr., Laughren, Rev. Mr.' Mahon,. and
'others; Cul. Bunk of Carbondale, a volun
teer of Rey. Mr. Morris, said that he,heard
Dr. Lewis and Dr...,Rafferty, of Carlindale,l
say qat Dr. O'Gorman was'not a regular bred
physician, but that he knew, anatomy. I This!
statement was made by Byrnes, though the
Doctor produced his diplomas of Dublin and
'London. But upon the Colonel's crossiexam i l
-ination he admitted that he had procured fo
the Doctor his papers of citizenshfrWsree-1
ommend ition, and, knowledge. of the Dector's
good character. What a shame to be
eonsalint, Colonel. It-is a melancholy thing
to see Reverend Gentlemew•lnake , ;4milar
mere heresav statements to sustain th. Rev.
Mr: Morris, it being of no consequence what
injury the Wound had inflicted upon'the Doc
tor's''character. When he could not be pre-,
vaned upon by 'Morris' party to .withdraw his
action against Priest Morris, Rev. Mr. Laugh
ren said that Rev. Mr.' Prendegrath told him
the , Doctor was a man of bad character; -the:
Doctor being so unfortunate at -one time
as - to, have gained Priest Prenegrath's dis
pleasure by signing a . peti,tion: to his 4ishop,
with other citizens against Priest Prende , ratli'
ffoin , to live at Honesdale, where the ling-1
tor was°' then residing. This was sufficient
crime to attack the Doct6r's character when
he had no opportunity- to defend himself.AeJ,
cording to Rev. Mr. Laughren's staternent4

We say we imagine and wefancy—for the scenes

since it is the determination of all our liquor
dealers to continue their usual bush:mai as before,

The diffietilty of enforcing the law shows itself'
in the circular of the Mayor to the Police depart-

flue their course of action, telling' them that to .
make their arrests legal, they must 'themselves

and must fictually seq it sold and drank upon the

how can the police know' where a beverage has I
been manufactured? - The 'explanatory Circular of
hie Honor is absolutely a nullity,• as it does not
allow any arrest to bo made, at least any that can
be made—we are inclined to believe netwitbstand-

that the New Englandlobornotive Builders are

ton,
of England, after aPelsking of the different

varieties of Coal, says i
"This recalled to miraeolleetion a circumstance
which 'I witnessed iu itly - early life. Being pre
sent when a censiderable.'qnantity of green vege
table mutter was und4 teaattnent: ono portion
having been left saturated :with water fur several
days, during sultry sums:mi. weather, upon being
agitated I noticed the dens. 6 fumes of nitrous acid
in great abundance. I Oin: only account for this
formation by suppos'neflitit decompositions, both 1
of water and of veg table matter , were going on
simultaneously, th vriiter furnishing oxygen, r
while the vegetable at(esupplied the nitrogen,
i n
in this case fortun e sly} in the requisite propor
tions to form nitrous acid. ;The trafii4;,-of reason
ing which this circui*talice induces does not
merely. , suggest the soureefruin whence the varie
ties of all the quality and properties of Coal may
have arisen, but it poititit nut a mode by which
Coal May be formed arOcially, whenever the oc
casioil may arrive. 814poSe a quantity of-green
vegetable matter to be left in a moistened state
fur a s ufficient period, Or:posed to the temperature
most ravorable for protecting the decompositions
alluded to, and jafterwttfds to be subjected to the
opera;tion I hat ik descrilled, for forming blocks of
fuel, fl'ere is evdry reasen to believe that Coal, in
a stay: of the greatest pitrity, might be formed by
art, in a brief space of time.

The inhabitants of the town are generally from

ITAVING spent several yeark . in 1 a
disinterested review of the most impon4it qtjes.
lions of Philosophy and Theology. and wishing to lay the
results of these studies Lefcr,t no fellow,itizA, I p m .
pose to open in this hmseriesof PhilosopliVral and
Theological Lecturni, which will - be held at tlfe TOwn
every Sunday morning. at fg iicierk, to ri , inmence
next Sunday a week. July the 15th, Every Lerthre ”itl
be followed by a Con vorsation. in which I am: ready] to
meet the doubts or of of my hearers, in 'egard to
subject treated of in the Lecture.
In order to deceive none. I shall state my Id3ll4olrit
ac briefly as possible: Orthodox Christianity is the abso
lute religion. it contains the truth, but being niligion, it
contains it in a religious and therefore In an inadequate
form. Tnith In its true : P.m. its symbols shaktm MT, ap
pears in naked reality only in Philosophy.' Tho absolote
Philosophy is that of Hegel. It being , the result and can
stone of all former Philosophies. The lofllneei and pu
rity of Christian morality cannot ho surpassed, but It
ran be equalled by Philosophy. which has the same pow
er of mgetterating the will and consoling the htlirl. The
true practical Philosopher and tho 'true practical Chrii.
thin stand •sn near each other. that the partition wail
which separates them la in fact but a thin veil.' The I
lv difference is..4hat the Philosimher knows this, while
they Christian looking _at him. as if it were through an it -'.
verted teles;ame..sees-hlin far oft and en 'separated by
an inipassalde gulf.. I shall begin thes4P-4ketures with a
translation and explanation of the evange e ts of ;st, John.
Although I 'consider the evangely of Bt. John: not only
as the keystone of orthodox Christianity, but also as the
corner-stone of that Idealistic Philosophy, which I myself
profess. and although this book Is far dearer tome thait
any other in or out of the Bible. I will ex:Kolbe its au
thenticity, and the amount of historical and pbilesophi•
teal truth contained In It., with a single eye to troth: and
with a freedom of investigation that shrinks from no re
snit.

',admission of any more skive States north of
the Miss43Mri Compromise line. ;1 -

the new section in place f th e 12th, it will
be perceived, was decisi e ; and expressive
of the sense of the American party of, Penn
