dom but the life of its editor has been one Of
hard work and poor pay. We understand
that the friends of the cause in that State nro-
pose to raise fund of So, 900, which, it is be-
lieved, will relieve the paper from its present
embarrassments, and place it upon sure foot
ing. We hope the project may succeed. The
suspension of such a paper as the Citissn
ought not to be thought of for moment. In
view of its embarrassments we frankly advise
those of our friends in Illinois who cannot take
both the Era and the Citizen to subscribe for
the latter. And let us say to our voluntary
agents in Illinois, who are canvassing for the
Era, whenever they find person able to sub
scribe but for one paper, We hope they will
urge him to take the Citizen
MADAME BIsCACCIANTI AT CARUsrs SA-
LooN.-We had the pleasure of attending
Concert at Carusis last Saturday evening,
given by Madame Biscaccianti. The weather
was exceedingly inclement, and there had al
ready been one disappointment, owing to the
severe indisposition of Madame B. But the
assemblage was brilliant and, though not so
large as it would have been under other cir
cumstances, it was highly appreciative.
The performance was admirable. Madame
Biscaccianti was still suffering from the effects
of her illness, but her songs told upon the
hearts of her hearers. Her manner is woman,
ly, unaffected, graceful, her voice clear, power.
full, of great compass, full of sweet melody
highly expressive. Since Jenny Lind, have we
heard no singer that charmed us so much as

United States Commissioner for New Haven
Connecticut lately delivered up three appren

under the Fugitive Act as fugitives from service

apprentices as well as slaves
The Albany atlas, edited by most estimable
and liberal-minded Catholic, SAYS:
The only two Catholics in the Senate of the
United States-Shields of Illinois. and NAL
lory of Florida--voted for the resolution to re-
ceive Kossuth II is not usual to classify votes
according to the religion of the Senator'S but
as much has been said in this relation, it would
do no harm if little should be known
Very good and they are not the only Cath
Olics, we know, opposed to the doctrines of Mr.
Hughes.
CHARLES EDWARDS LESTER has started
new paper at New York, in favor of the Union,
the Compromise, Slavery, and Constructive
Treason. In the first number, fondly hoping
we presume, for verdict of guilty in the case
of the Christana prisoners, arraigned for Trea
son, he thus whetted his appetite for blood

this nation can have no secure repose or conf

the supreme authority of the country proclaims
all forcible opposition TO Federal Law to be Irsa-

Charles Edwards Lester is a famous man,
and if he had as much nerve rs impotence
would make quite a respectable hangman.
