DUFF GREEN AND THE CATHGLIcs.-That
experienced editor, and able writer, General
Green, is engaged in a most voluminous cor
respondence with Bishop England, on the sub
ject of Catholic influence on the politics Of
this country.
Bishop England, who resides in Charleston.
S. c., is the Inquisitor General of Pope
Gregory XVI. Gen. Green charges, that
there is a conspiracy between the Catholics of
this country, and those of Europe, with The
Pope of Rome at their head, TO make the
Catholic Influence in this country, a powerful
political engine, by means of the ballot box.
How far this charge 'substaatiated, we can.
not say, for we have not as yet found time to
read the correspondence. But for the infor-
nation Of the people Of this country, where as
matter of necessity, much ignorance exists
as to the faith of the Catholics, and the influ-
ence OF the Pope over them, we subioin ex-
tracts from letter Of Pope Gregory XVI,
dated at Rome 15.n August, 1882. This let
ter Is addressed to all Patriarchs, Primates.
Archo;shops and Bishops" It is one of the
fundamental principles Of the Roman Catholic
;aith, that the people cannot, AMI should not
think for themselves, on the subject of religion,
eut that whatever is. by the fathers in coun-
CHI declared to be sound doctrine, must be ac-
cepted BY the people as such, and whosoeyer
presumcs to doubt, is nc longer in the pale of
me Church, and consequently, must be eter-
naily lost. Thu, adopting the words of sno-
ther, ne says, g from what has been regularly

the map.
Generally, the end Of great political con-
test is the beginning Of, or is believed by at
least one of the parties, to be the beginning Of
a great political reformation. The party which
takes this view of the subject, is the one IN the
majority, and as the larger number is more
likely to be in the right than the smaller enc,
this last should preserve at least some degree
of modesty in their ISLANDERS OF, and charges
against him, who has been selected oy the
| first This is the time for both parties to join
hands and go to work with determination to
see whether the corruptons, and mismanage-
ment which have been charged by one or both
of them, do really exist, and if they exist, to
reform them. The party triumphant, should
do it, to redeem the pledges they made while
struggling for power, the defeated party should
do it in Difference to the will ofthe majority.
In the wards ofthe able and chivalric Gov
ernor of Virginia, "A victory gained by the
suffages of a free people over countrymen who
have differed with the majority about then
common interest, is not an occasion of mere
party triumph, but for the united efforts of al
men and all parties who desire to reform wha
is wrong and to Perpetuate what is valuable il
D our government"
4 This is the language of sage and patriot
the conduct of man, who thinks that he il
right, but knows that he maybe aorong, and il
: willing that his error, if it exists, shall b.
pointed out to to him. How different from thu
part acted by that time serving, broken dow
political hack, the editor of the Richmond En-
quirer.
We conclude this article, by advising GU
democratic brethren to join us, if it is but t
save appearances, forwe Wings mean to maxi
thorough examination into all the depart
ments of the General Government, and W,
mean TO reform the corruptions which we ar,
confident exist, and they had better make a

HENRY CLAY.-Ex-Govenor Hill,
OF N. Hampshire, one ofthe most zeal
Gus friends Of the present Administra-
ton thus speaks of Mr.. Clay, in a
late number of his Farmers Visitor:
"The genius of Henry Clay is intu-
tive; and when it bursts spontaneously
from the letters thrown around it by
prejudice, it forces itself into the chan
mel of right and justice. We have per-
sonally observed this on several occa-
sions; but never have we been more
grati6ed in the exhibition, than on the
occasion of a late debate in the SEN
ate of the United States growing out
ola report of MIR. Buchanan, chairman
ofthe Committee on Foreign Relations
on the disputed,n northeastern boundary
between this country and Great Britain.
We admire the tone Of feeling ex-
hibited on this occasion by the veteran
Senator feeling which does equal
credit to the heart which prompted it,
10 the country, and to the Administra-
ton to which he is opposed"
1t is well that the political oppo-
ennis. OF Mr.. Clay are beginning TO
understand the man who has been
more than any other prominent person
age of the age, the object of particular
persec ution. Whether the genius of
Henry Clay is ''intuitive'' or not,
ne voice ofprosperity will declare that
1t was blended with the true American
spirits transmitted from the times of
Washington, and that it was devoted
TO the advancement of the honor and
interest ofhis country. Among the next
generation there will be thousands who
shall "blush TO know their fathers were
his foes. "---B0ltimore american.

an Illegal sale of State bonds, it can
only be done by the passage oil a bill
for that purpose by two successive
Legislatures. 1t will be remembered
that the Commissioners charged with
the sale Of the State conds, were aP-
pointed by the corporation OF the Un-
ion Bank, and were not amenable TO
the Legislature or the Executive Tor
manner in which they discharged the
trust confded to them. The Execu-
tive ofthe State has never admitted the
validity Of the sale of the State Bonds
neither the Executive, Senate,
House of Representatives nor all Of
them combined, could ratily an uncon-
stitutional pledge Of the faith OF the
State or anilIegal sale OF State Bonds.
The Constitution would be OF little val
ne if it could be trampled upon with
impunity and unborn millions loaded
with debt contracted in opposition to
its express provisions. Our ancestors
after struggle of eight years contlnu-
ance, conquered their independence OF
Great Britain, because that Empire
sought to impose a small tax upon tea,
with their consent, to aid in extin-
gushing the heavy debt incurred in
wars carried on for our protection
against our French and Indian neigh
bors. The freemen of Mississippi are
so degenerate as to submit to heavy
taxation to pay claim not cotracted
in accordance with their supreme law.
trust the day is far distant when the
light of Heaven, the fire that warns US
the bread we eat, the clothes we wear
all articles Of produce and every nee
essary of life, will be taxed to pay a
demand founded neither in justice nor
equity. Should the Legislature diff
fer with me in opinion, and resolve to
impose a sufficient tax on the persons
and property of all the people of the
State 10 pay the interest on the State
bonds and to provide for the princi-
pie as it falls due, the following sums
must be provided for at your present

In event of the passage of law
