Thus it will be seen that the circulation of
the organ Of republicanism is nearly as great as
that of all the other papers put together.
There is another singular contrast between
those colonies and the mother country. At
home it is only the down-trodden seris-the
halfstarved population Of the large citics--and
some few of the middle classes, such as the
small shopkeepers, together with the tenant far
mcrs who are oppressed by high rents and excess
siye taxation and feel the insecurity OF their
tenure and the consequent degradation OF their
position-it is only these that care anything

in court of justice that an attache OF the Iri-

quack medicines editorially provided the said
quack would pay him, (the editor,) for the time
spent in examining the physic. OF course, il
the quack didn't pay there was no no

ordinances of such petty legislatures as city
council, to speak on any legitimate topic, in
any public place or street in the city of New
York, on the sole conditions that he shall not
obstruct the highway or provoke disturbance
and we know our countrymen too well to think
they will tamely abandon 80 inestimable
privilege
What If this trumpery council of ours had
decreed that no political speaker should be al
lowed to use the public places or streets as a
forum? Every child knows that such an ordi-
nance would have been trampled under foot the
very day it was passed, and would have become
a bye-word and a laughing-stock. Shall lee
turers on religious and moral themes be subject
to harsher rules than the demagogues who
clamor about the government spoils? Shall the
Christian religion be taxed more heavily than
the creed Of democracy?
The existence Of such an ordinance as the one
above quoted is disgrace to the city. It's en-
actment can only be explained on the SUPPOSE
ton that the alderman who voted for it
did not know what they were doing. The
best, the only reasonable course for them
now to pursue, is to use all convenient haste to
have it erased from the city records. Let no
one ever know that, in the Metropolis ofAmeri-
ca we proposed to sacrifice our birthright
through fear Of party. race or clique.
The danger to be apprehended from liberty
o. speech must be met in front, not evaded by
tinid stratagem. If riots are threatened those
in authority must exert themselves to over
power the rioters not to silence the speaker. If
evil passions control portion of our citizens,
they must beancountered boldly and mastered.
1t shall not be said that we abandoned the
rights for which our fathers bled through fear
of noisy, turbulent mob. Liberty Of speech
must be maintained. or all our liberties will go
to wreck together. The destruction of this in
estimable privilege would leave us not soli-
tary vestige OF true freedom
Archbishop Hughes to the contrary notwith-
standing, we have no expectation of popular
disturbance. We believe that this day, and on
all future occasions, those who think fit to
preach in public will be unmolested. Riots
seldom occur when they are anticipated. All
experience tells that they are invariably sud
den, unforeseen outbreaks Of popular passion.
II, however, riot should be contemplated, His
Grace the Archbishop may safely leave the de-
fence of the city in the hands Of its constituted
authorities. There are in New York ten thou
sand able-boded Americans who are ready at
a word to march, musket on shoulder, under
the orders of the Mayor. They are not pre-
pared to receive the word Of command from
any priest Or bishop but, led by their own civil
rulers, they are both ready and able to quell
any riot that may arise, and to protect every
Catholic church in the city Archbishop Hughes
and other alarmists may therefore make their
minds easy We apprehend no riot but what
ever occurs, we are perfectly convinced that
law, ORDER and liberty Of speech will be main
tanned at all hazards

AND TR1BUNE.-By private information from
Philadelphia, we are informed that the Times
and Tribune are indebted for their copies Of
the Presidents Message in advance Of Congress
to wing politician and stump speaker OF 1862,
who is now said to be engaged as an editor in
the Union Office at Washington. This gentle
man, it is said, first sent his son, (who has q
place in the Census Bureau,) to New Orleans.
with several copies Of the Message, which were
by him delivered to certain whig editors there
in advance of all the world. except the Union
Office and the Cabinet. The young man then
returned from New Orleans; and, a day or two
before the delivery of the Message to Congress
was despatched from Washington by his father
with copy Of the Message to the Times and
Tribune of this city, and with another copy
for the Boston Post He was instructed that i
he should need money on arriving in New York
he must call on Greeley. or course these
copies of the Message were obtained by the
young mans father from the Union office. O.
course the thing. was not done without con
sideration; but that the person indicated
would venture to take, or would be permitted
to have access to, the printed copies Of the Mes
sage, without authority. is improbable. Ht
must have had q card of admission, or an order
from Mr.. Cushing or Mr.. Webster, or some one
else Of the Cabinet, or the kitchen cabinet Per.
haps Mr.. Forney can tell.

The ALARM SPREADING.-The Richmond En-
quirer is badly frightened at the sudden turn
which things appear to have taken at Washing
ton, and frankly confesses that the signs of re
bellion among the democracy in Congress are
fearful and shocking to contemplate ---,os;t,verx
shocking So they are, and there is every
reason to believe tho. they will get worse ani
worse as this session of Congress progresses
The time Is not far off when the Enquirer viii
have to decide whether it shall fall with this FREE
soil spells Cabinet, and Forney, and the stool
pigeon democracy, or rise with the new broad
gauge national democracy that is destined T.
come into power in 1856. Let the young poll
ticians Of the Enquirer think and act in time
They need not be alarmed if they are right.
