PIERCE AND KING CLuB. At a large and
enthusiastic meeting of the democrats of this
city, held at the Common Council Room on
Friday last, PIERCE and KING CLUB was or
gained. OLIVER Moses, Esq, was chosen
President. The election of the other officers
was deferred until the next meeting. Over
100 members have already subscribed their
names 10 the Constitution, and will do good
service in the cause. We are pleased with all
and every effort on the part of the democracy,
which tends to strengthen our cause and in
crease our vote.

&c" Our whig brethren, in their Responding
moments, once in while lift up their heavy
eyes and with slight CLEAN of light on their
saddened countenances, and exclaim "want of
harmony in the ranks of the democratic party
in Bath" Poor souls We scarcely feel dis
posed 10 deprive them of crumb of comfort,
in these, their days of affection, but must with
all tenderness and compassion tell them, that
even in the indulgence of this thought, they
delule themselves. The result Of the vote in
our city at the coming elections, will convince
them of this fact. The democracy with an uE-
broken front, will throw a vote for Pierce and
King, which will, with reason cause, them to
exclaim, show sadly were we deceived" Let
them not lay the fattering JUNCTION to their
souls that any division in the democratic party
exists, which will benefit them, for the sequel
will tell different tale. If they fondly cher
ish hopes of consolation from such opinions,
let them Danish those hopes at once, and
chang their harps on the willow" for as sure
the day of election arrives, the count Of the
ballot box will prove such hopes delusive-
such opinions entirely erroneous. Mark the
result.

SHocKING.-On Sunday morning, 9th ult.,
a man named Robinson of Frankfort, was burnt
tn death in the following manner, as we learn
from the Rockland Gazette-
1t appears that Robinson had obtained some
liquor that morning, and that he and his wife
both becoming intoxicated had resorted to- the
use of the pipe, and laid down on the bed while
smoking. The bedclothes took fire from the
pipe and before they were aroused from their
intoxication, Robinson was literally baked, so
that he died in few hours. His wife and
little children escaped the flames.

Scott Ratification Meeting.
UP RIVER, July 81, 1852.

DEAR TINES Another Scott Ratification
Meeting took place on the Common in Gardi-
ner, on Thursday evening last. Its origin
may be traced to the general disappointment
of the party at the failure of the meeting in
Augusta few weeks since, and very ardent
desire in some quarters that Hon. George Ev
ans should have one more chance before the
Convention in August to cut an expectant fig
ure for the nomination to Congress from this
district. The meeting was to be grand raj
ly for Scott outside, with vast amount of
thunder underneath for Hon. George Evans,
of Farmingdale.

ALDERMAN DENMAN AND THE CHIEF ENGINEER
OF THE CRoToN AoUEDUCT .-Alderman Dcnman
has been attacked in letter published in several
newspapers, and signed by Mr.. Craven, Chief En-
gncer of the Croton Aqueduct Department. The
letter assails the whole Board Of Aldermen but it is
chiefly directed against Alderman Denman, as one
Of the members Of the committee to whom case of
great injustice, the part Of the Croton Aqueduct
Department, was referred, and who reported against
that Board, and in favor Of wronged contractor
The Board of Aldermen, and, also, the Board
Of Assistant Aldermen, adopted the report. The
Mayor vetoed the resolution to pay the contrac-
tor, and both Boards have since passed it. For
this, Alderman Denman is charged with corruption
by Mr.. Craven, and Mr. Denman has submitted
the letter to the Board Of Aldermen, for the pur-
pose of investigating its charges, in order either
that tho individual guilty Of the conduct alleged
may be punished, or if the charges are untrue, that
the officer who has hazarded such allegations may
meet with his reward. The case is now undergoing
investigation. We approhend that there can be very
little difficulty in determining who is right in this
matter and that Alderman Denman will come out
triumphant.

Is "PRoTEsTANTIsM INCOMPATIBLE WITH Ii
BERTY?'-This evening, at the Tabernacle, DR..
Browpson, Of Boston, is to maintain the affirmative
of this question in lecture given before the Catho
lie Institute Of New York. We know the doctor
has rather curious move Of reasoning; but we arc
very anxious to know what kind Of arguments he
can produce for such novel proposition as that In
the first announcement in the FrGemam's Journal,
the subject of the lecture was stated to be Pro-
testantism Incompatible with Republicanism." 1t
has been since corrected. 1t is distinction with
out difference for the highest form of liberty as
yet known TO the human is republicanism as it
exists In the United States, and Professionalism is
the very essence Of this liberty and republicanism
In fact, Professionalism has been always charged by
Catholic controversialsts as being the excess Of
berty, and as giving more freedom to man than is
good for him. The very origin Of Professionalism
was the breaking of the shackles of spirtua'de
potism, and its tendency every where is towards
civil liberty, whereas absolute monarchies and des
potic furnish the congenal soil in which
Catholicism fourishes and thrives In this country
4 is sickly exotic. We shall, therefore, be curl
Gus to know what the learned editor Of the Catholic
Reuieio has to say in support Of his view Of the
subject.

Total--l3 onrnals-weckly circulation los 800
The number and influence Of religious papers in
this city is rather a surprising FEATURE when COM
pared with the number in London and other Euro
pean metropolises In London there are but four or
five, and those having but limited circulation and
exhibiting but little talent or enterprise, and in
Paris there are but two or three In Boston and
other Of our own towns their number is similarly
and less small, so that New York has an extent of
religious newspaper literature surprising that Of all
other Cities or, perhaps, that Of all the world put
together.
We have thus presented view of the mass Of re-
lgious newspaper literature which is weekly issued
in this city, the influence of which must be consi-
derable. Surely We ought to be very exemplary
and righteous community. At least two thirds Of
these papers, or more than $4,000 sheets per weeks
are propag andists Of anti-slavery doctrines. The
Catholic portion conservative in their principles
and generally the Episcopal the same but, with
slight exceptions. the Presbyterian, the Methodist,
and Baptist, and other papers, are warm advocates
Of antislavery dogmas. 1t win be noticed that the
True Wesleyan, whose supporters belong to the
anti slavery and temperance order, has been en-
deavoring to get circulation in North Carolina and
Virginia Such is one Of the many and various mo-
thods by which doctrines, that gradually run into
the rebrands Of discord and destruction are insi-
diously scattered about us, and which, sooner or
later. may precipitate the republic into state Of
alienation, insurrecton, civil war, and final and un-
changcabe separation and dsunion.

THE SPIRIT MISUNDERSTANDING FOR Bed
LAM.-In another part OF this days HERALD will be
found true copies Of two extraordinary messages
said to have come from the other world. They are
both printed on the same handbill-one on each side
Of the paper-and circulated through Brooklyn, and,
we presume, in New York and the vicinity of both
cities. On Sunday, the document was left at the
house of a gentleman in Brooklyn, who handed it
to US for publication, and stated that copies were
also left with his neghbors.
One Of che messages is entitled Disclosures
from the Interior, with Important Predictions and
Warnings!p' The message itself is rhapsody,
intsrlarded with quotations from the Scriptures and
announcing the immediate approach of the day Of
judgment, and the terrible destruction of "the city
Of external greatness and prosperousncss'' AT the
foot Of this message there is the following state
ment =" The above extremely momentous, thrill
ing, and extraordinary communication, TO which it
will be the height and depth Of wisdom in all mortals
to take heed thereunto, given from the interior
by spirit messenger from Paradise, through chosen
medium, on Friday evening, Jan. I6, 1892
The other message bears the following title:-
:" A Revelation Craven in Letters of Fire. Thisis
still more extraordinary revelation as may be seen
by the opening paragraph go Scarcely let time
intervene. Escape tho wales Of death. Pass from
beneath the cloud of magnetic human glory. Flee
to the mountains whittier direct. Rest in their
embrace, and in place fashioned and appointed Of
old. There the dark cloud Of magnetic death has
never rested For ], the Lord, have thus decreed,
and in my person have sworn, and it shall come to
pass. Time waiteth for no man." The message
then goes on to state that oil who 60 to this hiding
place somewhere in the mountains Of Ohio or vir
gina), will escape the destruction that will visit the
rest Of the world, and will see the Lord descending
from heaven. Appended to this message is the fol-
lowing account Of the way it was communicated
"The above sublime heavenly mandate and commission
was given TO the leader Of the Auburn Circle last fall
about the time Of the first ripe grapes Mum 49, 2o II

msnt, il became 50 involved that il was put up a.
auction in 1876, for the purpose Of paying it's debts,
when in order to keep it out of hostile hands and
to prevent its perishing, it bought in by Bishop
Hughes, who for two years was proprietor
and nominal editor. The business affairs Of the pa
per continued to be nlmanaged, and the Bishops
official duties and deicacy prevented him taking
that active part necessary for its prosperity-hc
therefore, in June 1913, accepted the offer made BIZ
its present proprietor and editor, Mr. J. A. McMas
ter, in oopjuAction with e gentleman of wealth,
whose name has been made public, to rein-
burse him what he had expended, and to take the
paper of his hands, amounting to several thousand
dollars; since which, it is stated that it has nearly
doubled its circulation-now amounting to eight
thousand-and is read by Protcstants as well as
Catholics, in this country and in Europe. 1t is,
we understand, regarded as the leading Catholic
newspaper in the United States and boldly discusses
POLITICAL social and topics. II highly conser

True Wesleyan has been established for period Of
nine years, and originated with, and is maintained
by, a body of secessionists from the Wesleyan Me-
thodis Church, who make the test the admission to
membership the doctrines Of temperance aud anti
slavery. 1t has circulation among this denomina-
tion of upwards Of 4000 principally in the Northern
States; and we are informed it has also made some
way in North Carolina and Virginia. The next pa
per in order, of age, is the Protestant Chnrchman,
which has be established eight years. 1t is at
tncAed to the Episcopal low church party, and has
circulation, chiefly in this State, of about 100.

nomination, who hold the opinion that the "seventh
day. and not the '.frst day." is the true Sab
bath. II has been established about eight
years. and hasa circulation Of LOO among this de-
nomination. The Inquirer is the organ of the Uni
tarians, and is open to the full expression Of the
opinions Of the members Of that body. II has been
established six years. and has circulation Of 2 800
and we understand is otherwise well supported. The
INDEPENDENTS devoted to tho denomination Of Chris
tians known by this name, and has been established
four years. It's circulation is stated to amount ia
10000. The Christian ambassador is the organ O
the sect known Uni vcrsaliss, who believe in tho
ultimate salvation o. all mankind. 1t has be0n es.
ablished eighteen months, and We are informed has
circulation Of 5000, principally in this State and
in Pennsylvania.

KILLED by MorLY GANG OF INDIANS
AND MExIcANs.-It again becomes our
duty to record the report of the perpe-
tration of another scene of bloodshed and
plumber, which, if our information be
true, would more resemble the work of
finds incarnate than human men. We
are informed by gentleman Just arrived
in town, that, on the evening of the 10Th
inst, gang Of about 40 men, consisting
OF Mexicans and Indians, attacked par
ty OF seven Americans, who were en-
camped at lake called Campacllas; five
Of those at the camp are said to lave
been murdered, and all their property ia
ken into Mexico. Two of the men, for
tunately, were on the margin Of the lake
shooting ducks at the time, and they sue
ceeded in making their escape. These
robbers and murderers are said to have
crossed the river some forty miles above
this place, on Friday, the 7th inst, and
detachment Of them openly recrossed it
again soon after perpetrating their hellsh
deed, bearing with them, as troph es, the
right hand of each Of their slaughtered
victims, while the remainder of the sava-
ges coolly cncamped on the ground where
the massacre occurred, expecting no
doubt, another feast of blood from those
whom them deemed absent from the
camp, and would probably return unsus-
picious of danger.
An effort has been made, as we learn,
to raise sufficient men to repair to the
ground and bury the dead, but such CON-
sternation prevails among the lhinly scat
tered settlements, that no one can be in
duced to move beyond the precincts of
his own habitation-and even there he is
in hourly expectation of being murdered
or plundered, and we have no government
troops here Of nature to pursue and
punish these fiends-,hough if we had,
they would have re-crossed the line and
been under the protection of Mexico
long before the best mounted troops
could reach the place of carnage. There
we have no law TO reach Bropns-
vWe { Teras,) Flag, May Is.
