city, at the latest dates, consequence OF the auda-
cious man9uyres Of the Catholic Bishop, Hughes
at the nstigaton Of the Wing managers to endeav-
or to defeat the Democratic party. Our paper now
being ready for press. we have time only for few
particulars, in addition 10 he letter Of our New
York correspondent, which will be found in another
column and which we commend to the readers at

This Infamous plot grows out of the Recommended
ton oithe Wing Governor Seward, (made two years
since, with view secure the Catholic votes.) to
give the Catholics an exclusive share Of the School
fund for the purpose OF supporting Catholic cchoos.
From the sunday Atlas, (neutrar of Oct 81. we
copy the following
On Friday evening" there immense meeting Of
adopted citizens Carroll Hail. in favor of division Of
the School Fund. which the clergy present upon
the stand, and which addressed in long speech by
Bishop Hughes lie advocated the nomination of sepa

selves never to vote for any that would support
these claims He then proposed ticket consisting OF
senator's Of the regular democratic assembly candidates
aud three Others all of whom he said would 90 with the
Catholics. His speech received his pledges taken
aud his nominations accepted with the widest enthusiasm
This believe, the fret time in this Republic that
Roman Catholic preate has publicly placed himself at the
head of political party, aud hope that it will be the
last
1t is but justice say. that many the friends
OF the adopted citizens who Roman Catholics do not
go with Bishop Hughes IN this movement
or Yesterday, may be by their card, the demo-
cratic candidates included in the Catholic ticket denied
all connection with that queson-so another ticket will
have TO lie nominated
The Herald. (ndependent) Of the LIST inst. has a long
article, from which extract
We do remember the time that any local event ever
produced such sensation-such astounding surprise
in New York the novel and extraordinary movement
headed by Bishop Hughes the egate Of the Pope in this
city, and accompanied by portion of the Catholic clergy.
Such a bold daring. reckless, unex pected attempt to
control politics by the force of religious senment-and
that religion the Roman Catholic fell upon the great body
of the Protestant community like clap Of thunder in a
clear sky. Every where-throughout. the city-in the
highways aud byways-by all parties, clques and sects
there only deep and bitter sentiment of repoba
ton. The conduct of Bishop Hughes viewed with
the nefable dsgus-and his attempt denounced bv
Wings, Democrats and even by the intelligent members
OF his church. II such attempt control the bal
lot box had been made in any other city than New FORK
persuaded that the safety Of the Bishop
would have been endangered by such audacious inter
ference with public affairs.
Bishop Hughes declares that his purpose i'm originating
such movement, ard sullyng his garments with poi,i-
cal dirt is to elect the legislature who will give
the Catholics exclusive share of the school fund But
how the of the Bishop operate in favor of
his claim The Bishop knew very well that the Wing
candidates avowedly opposed his claim He de-
cares that ten the Democratic ticket had pledged them
selves somebody its favor 1t these candi-
dates have denied the declaration, but the bishop acted
the assumption. In this state Of the case according
to his own view he goes into Carroll Hail. originates
new party dominates ticket IN part, not of
whom could be elected under any contingency Bishop
Hughes knew this well any in the community.
Yet. with perfect knowledge of the state of the affair
he adopts the very whici must necessarily defeat
the very object he proesses 10 haze He knew
that his political ngues must defeat the whole of the
Democratic ticket which the friends of the

against the claim and yet he took the favorable 10
the latter. Would any honest act under the cir
cumstaHces Of the the bishop has done Does
he show himself perfectly careless about the
of the claim Is he not Jesuit in the of
the word
The political professions of the Bishop are therefore,
holioW dad insincere all through. His movement is
miserable juggie, pracsed upon the Roman Catholics
Instgated doubt, by the Wall street ppeayers for
their purposes This intrigue has been negotiating
between Governor Seward and Bishop Hughes for nearly
years past. The Bishop, in unfortunate moment
for his reputation has been seduced from the holy
altar of his church, and hurried the political arena
merely supply the place of those ppe-syers that
not present be imported from Philadelphia, they
in 1898. Bishop Hughes has taken the trade out
of the hands of Gentwoth and has promised 10 supply
pipe sufficient TO elect the pipe-layers ticket.
AS the Irish Catholics of New York, one word is
enough. II they permit themselves under the hollow
representations of Bishop Hughes, who the tool
of Governor Seward, up separate party for them
selves IL will be the disastrous movement for them
that they yet attempted. If they do not like the
democratic candidates. let them for the whgs-we
for whch-but for Gods sake-for the sake of
your common bery-abandon the impudeDt priest and
his separate ticket We would any party
coed IN New York, than that faction should be organ
lied by Bishop on a distinct point-a distinct race
and acting separate capacity from their fellow
Any such separate and exclusive conduct is utter
y foreign TO the glorious principles and institutions
of this happy land. \ Roman Catholic faction, with
u Bishop at its head and few pipe-layers at its
tail, abominable, hateful, and detestable in the
highest degree. The IRISH people-the members of
Bishop Hughes own church-Owe it to themselves
to their race-to their adopted country-to the
oath of naturalization which they have taken-to
put down at and forever this nsoent attempt
Of the priests. to render them and their offspring
obnoxious and hateful the of the great Amer
lean community of treemen. Not moment is to
be lost.
The Herald also has the following notice -

city least expect such things.
