Or - An anonymous correspondent, who
writes from "Germany township," and
signs himself "A Scbscriber," takes excep
tion to the publication of , the account of
the Williamsburg , Riot, the Father Brady
difficulty at Hartford, the escape from the .
Emmittsburg Sisterhood, and other news
items, which have recently appeared in the
"Star," and requests us to publish the let
ter of the Bishop of Hartford in regard to
, the Brady affair, also the version of the
Emmitaburg escape as given by the Fred
, crick Citizen; and sundry other articles.
Now, while wp shellac ell times be pleas
! txl to gratify our friends by the publication
of unexceptionallirticles of general inter
est that may bo furnished us, and to that
lend have frequently given the use of our
columns freely for cortespondents to give
expression to.views'' essentially different
from our own--'—we have so often and so
plainly announced it to be a rule in our
office to pay no regard to "anonymous"
communications, that it is a matter of won-
der that %intent:Option° to trouble us with
them.
If "A. Subseriber" is disposed to con
tribute anything to our columns, he is wel
come to do so on furnishing us with a re
sponsible name—otherwise he has tic; claims
upon out attention. We make this state
dieat as to our position for the hundredth
time, and hope to have no occasion to re
new it for some time to come.
As to the implication of unfairness or.
bia& on our part in the re-publication of
the articles alluded to, we have only to
remark, they were ill copied from papers
notorious for their 'opposition to Know-
Nothingism. The Williamsburg pot
came from the. New York Tribune, and
was nothing more than a condensed state
mont of the facts proved before the Coro
ner's Inquest. The Falter Brady and
Sisterhood ,articles were taken from the
Baltimore Sun, and copied by us as items.
of news. Had "A Subscriber" been as
sharp as ho seems to deem himself, and as
free from bias as he would have us to be, he
might have known that the statement of
the Bishop of Hartford, and the version of
the Sisterhood difficulty by the Frederick
Citizen, could not have appeared in the
""Star'.' of Friday, for the simple reason
that they did not reach us for a day or two
after our paper was published. It may al
so.tend to relieve his fears as ,to our indis
position to fairness, to be assured that both ,
the Bishop's artieta and that of the Citizen, l i
as they appear in anotheraduain, were in '
type before his advice came to'hand.
In the desire to serve our readers with
the latest newt, we make our selections
without stopping to inquire whether the
intelligence may be agreeable or not to the
reader. Wo aim to famish a truthful re
cord of transpiring events, and that we
take to be what the :mass of our readers
want.
And now since "A Subscriber" has vol
unteered sorneitindly ailviCo to us, we may
be permitted to reciprocate the compliment,
by retitarking that in our judgment tha
undue sensitiveness which he, in common
with the great mass of the Church which
he represents. evinces in regard to state-'I
mints and publications such us these in
question—and the evident disposition to
press religious bias into notice unnecessa
rily and improperly—has had no little a.
gooey in provoking and sustaining the re
!makable popular movement which is just
now so much dreaded. ' If the Catholic
Church is suspected of being too political
in its aims and influences—the misguided
seal end marked sensitiveness of portions.
of its membership, in seeking to control
political agencies, and to fetter the press,
haVe not been without effect in arousing
those suspicious into active operation.—
It is not always true that he who declaims
most loudly against wrong is most free
from fault, and if "A Subscribe"' would
have others free from religious bias, it
would be well fbr him to see to it that be
does not develops it too strongly in him
self.

FOREIGN NEWS.—The steamer Bal.
I l tie arrived at Now York at 12 o'clock on
Saturday night, making nn extraordinary
short trip, and bringing European intelli
gence three days later. The news from
the seat of war hi of Ate most disastrous
character to thefilliea, and has created a
great sensation and alarm throughout Eng
land and France. We give the details in
another column. Prince Menschikoff has
come to the relief of Sevastopol with an
immense force, and it is believed the Eng
.
limb and &each are comptetelyspvermatch
ed. The two days' conflict is represented
to have been of the most sanguinary sham
ter, and even by . thie English accounts we
should judge !hit the Russians were vie
tors, though both sides claim the honors
cf the battle... Of the third day's fighting
we have no accounts except that the • Rua
eians 'renewed the: attack, which would
seem _to indicate that , they considered
themselves in a good condition for a con
tinvtion of the struggle, and were deter
mined to follow np their advantaged.--
All tbe steamships tha63ould be obtained
have been taken up to convoy 60,000 more
French troops to the Crimea, and it is evi
dent that the espture of. Sevtuttopol is to
be most dearly bought, if finally obtained,
which is every day becotniug more doubt
ful: The loss of life during the two first
days is set , down it 18.000 souls. Fu r .
thor Inis will be anxiously looked for.
PATER.—The Africa brings four days
later intelligence. No further field fight.
ing bad taken place, both parties prepa
ring for an en agoment, which would be
terrible and bloody. For -particulars, see

IMPORTANT DECISION.—A. free
negro is not it citizen of the Untied Stites,
and according to a recent decision in the
State of Illinois, cannot maintain a suit.—
The Chicago Times states the ease thus :
Joseph 0. Mitchell, a free negro, as plain
tiff, vs. Charles H. Lamar, who plead that
a free negro was not a ‘c4isen of the Uni
ted States, and hence could not maintain a
suit before the United States Court. The
plea was sustained by Judge Drummond,
of the U. S. Circuit Court, and the decis
ion was concurred in by Judge M'Leao.
. The'..Know Nothing" National Con
vention, in Cincinnati, adjourned on Sat
urday, after a two week's session. It is
said the attendance WNS large, each State
in the Union being fully represented.—
Among the representatives were : Messrs.
John M. Clayton, of Delaware, Ultnann, of
Now York ; Broome, of Pennsylvania,
',unladen, of New Orleans, and Mayor
Conrad, of Philadelphia. The utmost
harmony is said to have prevailed among
them. Important changes have been made
in their constitution, a now ritual adopted,
and their passwords, signs, &0., have un
dergone a complete alteration. The ques
tion with reference to Presidential caudi
dates was not brought up.
Serlt is announced in the Sun Francis.
co Times that every obstacle in the way of
the consummation of the project annexing
the Sandwich Islands to the American Re
public, has been finally s and fully surmount
ed and the treaty agreed upon between the
representative of the United and the King
and his council, in all its details. This
fact, it is stated, induced Gen. Miller, the

BUSINESS FOR CONGRESS.—At
this season of the year the preparation of
the Annual Reports for Congress usually
affords active employment to all persons
connected with the Public Departuteets,
and it not unfrequently happens that au
thentic information relating to matters of
State falls into the hands of the correspon
dents' of distant newspapers. • The preci
sion with which the subjoined statements
are made by the Washington corres
pondent of the New York Courier gives to
them the impress of truth : •
"An informal summary of the annual
commerce and navigation reports has, been
prepared for the use of the Secretary of
the .Treasury,.from which it appears that
the imports of foreign .merchandise during
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1854,
were a fraction over •800,000,000. The
difference between the imports and exports
of domestic produce wore between 8250,-
000,000 and $260,000,000. The exports
of breadetuffs and provisions were some
what in excess of 850,000;000. The dif
ference between the imports and exports
was made up in California" gold, stooks,
rand mercantile obligations. The revenue
from customs, as before stated, was•about
$65,000,000, and from all othersources
$8,000.000 . . The sales of public lands have
very greatly increased during the first six
months of the present Tear, and exceed
those of any corresponding period since
1836 ; but, as the larger portion of the
sales have been made under the gradua
tion act of the last session of Congress,
and at prices varying from fifty to twelves
and-a-half cents per sore, it is presumed
that no considerable increase of revenue,
if any at all, has taken place." •
THE,ESCAPE TROIS THE SISTERHOOD AT
ENIMITSBURO.—The Frederick Citizen has
the following version of the affair, thq first
account of which, appeared in the Exam
iner :
Miss Bunkley is from Norfolk, Va., and
a convert to the Catholic faith. She went
to the sisterhood about two years ago on
a visit and to make a religious : retreat.;—
She then petitionettto be received, but on
being advised to wait and consider the
matter 'maturely, (it being a rule of the so.
ciety to admit none unless there is a strong
assurance of marked vocatien,)she return - .
ed home. A year alter stir renewed her
application and was admitted on Md.--;
In this capacity, as a mere probationer or
novice, and not a sister, Miss 13. resided
at the sisterhood for the last ten months
or thereabouts, and was engaged in teach
ing, &c. until Tuesday morning, the 9th
inst., a short time before the morning boll,
when she got out of the window of her
chamber and departed It is presumed
that she contemplated taking the stage for
Frederick, which passes only a few hun
dred yards from the institution, but being dis
appointed in meeting it, she proceeded on
foot to Creageratown; a distance of 6or 7
miles. We understand that she had always
expressed herself fierfectly happy and even
repeated this. sentiment the very day be
lore site left.
LETTER FROM Miss Bus:Kt:v.—The
Frederick Examiner re asserts the cor•
rectness of its statement as to the lorcible
detention and escape of Miss Bunkley,
charging the representation•of the Citizen
to be "false, ridiculOus and exculpatory.'
The Examiner supports its statement by
the follwing extract from a private letter
from Miss BUnkly herself, in reply to an
acquaintince 'hi Frederick who had writ

I have my father's permis

him, requesting a statement of my escape
from St. Joseph's. I would remark that
I regret exceedingly so many reports are
in circulation, and have thought of making
a public statement. With regard to my
manner of leaving the Conyent. the eir
cumstance speaks for itself. Could Y have
had permission, or had I been free to leave
when I wished, I would not bevelled re•
course to flight, and that in the still hour
of night.
I escaped through a window near the
Chapel, fronting the avenue ; where there
is no enclosure, and ran or rather flew
down the avenue, as the moon was shin

verses the grounds around the building.-
When half way down the avenue, I heard
a noise and soon discovered that the man
who sleeps in a small house at the gate
was up, and had raised the window to see
who was passing. I hid myself and he
did not perceive me; but he continued
watching at the window until 4 o'clock,
when the stage for Frederick passed, and
I was unable to reach the stage, or even
pais the gate until he withdrew, which
was soon after the stage passed.
I feared to go to Emmitsburg for many
I reasons. I walked in the opposite direc
tion as far as St. Lazare's, when I became
alarmed and entered a side gate' on the
road, and remained until the Angelus rung,
which was six o'clock. I then continued
my journey on a road' I never travelled,
and reached Creagerstown about ninit,o'.

I did not apprehend any danger in

had to assume its entire debt, about $27,-

consequently, if any.friend of the deceased
wished his intement there, I should have
been informed of it.
7thly..flad I been informed in season of
the so-called request of the deceased to i be
interred "near the church," I, would at
once have directed his interment in the
church, which would, in the cue, have
been the proper place,
You will observe, then: lst, that I was
not consulted as to the interment of Rev.
Mr. Brady by the mover or mtwers. in the
matter. 2dly, that.these movers selected
a place moat unfit, and never intended u a
.burial place and, idly; that they "elected
it withoutconaulting the proprietor, of the
place selected for the interment.
'nese are facts that cannot be set aside,
and these tarts show that have beengreat
ly misrepresented, and that some etlijois
have permitted themselves to, bpimposed
on by the fabricators of the marveloO.
1 removed the'deceased from the pa to-
ral charge of the congregation last July, for
reasons which justified me so far as to
leave me no alternative before conscience.
Could I have justified myself before con
science in again restoring him to , the charge
of the same congregation I would most
cheerfully have done so. for 1 never enter
tained any personal towards , the
deceased. In season I offered him . a ano
ther congreption, considering myself jus
tified in doing so, as in a new pipes the
same obstacles to his ministerial eJLICCOIIa
would not exist as at Hartford.
I can find no ground for self-reproach in
the matter ;did a similar cue occur again.
I would be impelled to act as I did in this
istance, unless I became willing to sacri
fice conscience and betray the interests of
religion.
As to t h e action of the people in the
case it was limited to a few, the chief, of
whom is a most worthless man, and s 'eres
so considered by the deceased.
While the congregation dep:ored action of
a scandalous character on the part 'of any
holding communion with them, they can
congratulate themselves on the fact that
the action of a few evil disposed ' persona,
(and such may be found amongst every
people,) cannot deprive diem' of their
good name.
This is a full statement of the facts in
the case, as far as I am concerned, and
facts will ever, within enlightened people,
outweigh assertion and libelous statement.
The only favor I ask of those editors who
have published statements_ from other
quartets on this matter, or made com
ments based on `these statemenui, injurious
to me, is the publication of this article,—

lucky.
It bu beeoulisrovered that a gang of
'villains has heen organized for some time
in Kentukoy, who obtain their livelihood
by stealing free negroes in Ohio, and sell
ing them into slavery. A letter from
Maysville, Kentucky, to the Frankfort
Yeoman. says:
Kidnapping free negrnes in Ohio. -end
deluding our slaves from their masters to
recapture and sell them, is an established
profession of a gang located upon the bor
&re of the Ohio. combining with negro
traders in the interior of this State, there
by boldly conducting a villainous system
of piracy heretofore unknown in the an
nals of crime in Kentucky.
On Friday morning this community
was apprised of the fact. through the a
gency of colored persons. that ofree negro
girl was forcibly taken from Ohio and
brought to Kentucky. Suspinion or the
statements of the negroes (which is not
evidence in Kentucky) proved that Lewis,
Allen, and Henry Young of this county,
were the individuals in whose possession
the girl was found.
Arrests were made, nor best and promi
nent citizens turning cut to capture the
rogues. Lewis, Allen and Young were
forcibly taken by the people from the
prison and delivered to the authorities of
Ohio, where they will be disposed of as
the aggravating merits of this case de.
serve. Henry Young is detained for trial
on this side. They this suffering commu
nity is to be rid of three brothers whose
bold career of crime was a terror to the
peice and safety of the public.
Lewis and Henry Young openly boast
of their determination to burn the city.—
They conies. it to he their source of live
lihood to steal a free negro or decoy our
slaves and sell them to negro traders.—
