The Illinois free trader and LaSalle County commercial advertiser. [volume] (Ottawa, Ill.) 1841-1843, 1841-08-13

We are plcscd to discover that the Catholic
congregation are prosecuting their new building
with much success. The alteration of the origi-
nal design by substituting brick for a frame bull
ding, has somewhat retarded the work, but the
beauty and superiority Of the alteration will amply
repay the Inconvenience resulting from the delay.
We have seen the plan of the building, which Is
of the Gothic order, and drawn with much taste
and skill. Michael Ryan, Esq, of this place, is
the architect, and from the known abilities of thi,
gentleman, the citizens may expect an ornament
to our town by the erection of this building
The dimensions of the church are as follows
seycnty-twO feet in length -thrty-iyc feet in
width, and thirty-six feet high The sprc is Sc
yenty-two feet high, well proportioncd and neatly
decorated. The ground attached to the building is
beautiful, and il properly ornamcntcd with shade
trees and shrubbcry, the Catholic society will pos
sess in the space of a few years one Of the most
beautiful locations in the country, worthy their
enterprise and philanthropic efforts in behalf of
the religious cause which they espousc.

) We have returns from number of counties in
this Congressional Observation-Disclosures not official,
yet they are correct enough to warrant the
conclusion that the Hon. John r. Stuart will be
reelected by a large majority. We were prcpa-
red for this result, and may hereafter cxpcc, a
similar state Of things unless earlier and more ac-
tive measures are adopted in behalf of democratic
candidates. Mr.. Ralston was bu, few weeks
announced as candidate in opposition to Mr..
Stuart, and had not portion Of the party adopted
the "rule orrun' policy, we might, at least, have
reduced the Wing majority in this district at the
last November election, several thousand votes.
We will publish the official vote in this district
as soon as We receive it. Stuart's majority will
probably exceed 1900. Harrson's majority was
1866.
FInsr DIsrnIcT.-Fhc Bclcyillc Advocate
Of the 9Th inst. says: "The returns as far AS we
have received, stand as follows. REYNOLDS, 1854

The Philadelphia Gazctt thus truly speaks oil
the evil resulting from this unjust system; " II Is
estimated that at least 10000 persons are lying
in the prisons of the United States Tor dent
Probably, with but few exceptions, these oo'ooo
people are husbands and fathers and have been
torn away from helpless, dependent, and weeping
families, no, for crime, hut misfortune, In most
instances, no doubt this imprisoned multitude
arc able and willing to labor and earn a subS's-
tence for their families, and something towards
the cxtinguishmcnt of their liabilities. But from
every duty and every blessing of home and free
dom they are cut of; and no useful end Is ac-
complishcd by their imprisonment They are so
many dead buried men. They are sufficient in
numbers to people state and make 1t ring with
the notes of Joy and the din of cheerful industry.
They are a larger body OF men than hat which
achieved our national independence, ard yet they
pine in pcstferous cells side by side with thieves,
pirates and murdcrcrs, under the sanction OF the
law
