Since the abolishment of religious tests in the
State of Maryland, by which the Jews in common
with their fellow citizens have been admitted 10
participation in the Offices Of civil government North
Carolina has been denounced as more intolerant
even than that State, disfranchsing not only Jews
but Catholics. We observe the fact reiterated in
ietter addressed by Bishop ENGLAND, to Mr. TYSON
the fearless advocate Of equal rights in the Maryland
Legislature, in which he returns his thanks for the
decided support he gave to the Jew Bill Itis .rue
as stated, that Constitution contains this dsqua
flying clause. but it is and always has been dead
letter, and will no doubt be expunged whenever an
opportunity occurs for so doing. We recollect but
one instance, in which even an attempt has been
made to enforce the provision of the Constitution in
this particular, and in that one the effort fruit.
less. We allude to the case of jacob Henry, whose
expulsion was moved for on the ground !" that he
disbelieved in the divine authority of the NewTes-
lament" and whose eloquent appeal on the OCCASION
may be found in most of the compilations of popu.
lar speeches, now in vogue. In numerous instan-
ces, Catholics have been elected and have served as
Legislators without molestation, and have filled
various important civil Offices In Maryland the
Legislature had the power Of removing the stain
from her characters and il therefore disgrace.

was a. work on the roof of four-story
cotton factory, he accidentally lost his
balance, and, the shingles being wet
from recent rain, he was unable to stop
himself from going off When he came
TO the edge he made desperate effort
to cling TO the roof, and for a moment
was suspended by the arms over the
frightful precipice below. He was in
siantly compelled TO give way, aud turn
ing in his fall he struck with his hands
and breast the edge of bank which
caved under him, and he went into the
river with his head downwards. His
face struck the bottom, bot he came up
in moment, and, by the assistance Of
several near him, he was taken out
without other injury than the fracture
Of the bones of his wrists, and small
bruise on the forehead 1t is stated that
there were but about four feet in either
