Sectarian Disturbances.

The blowing up of the Roman Catholic church at Dorchester, Mass, on the fourth, has created an intense excitement in the nelghbor- hood of the occurrence. A meeting of clti- zens has been held, at which resolutions to spare no pains to bring to justice the perpetrators of the outrage were agreed to. The origin of the affair still remains involved in mystery.
 The subsequent burning of the Catholic church at Bath, Me-, has also created much ex- citement. It appears the Angel Gabriel" was preaching in the street, and that hack contain inc three men drove through the crowd, and turning round immediately attempted to return, the driver insisting that the crowd should give way.
 This appears to have incensed those present, and soon after, about F. M, a cry was simul- taneously raised throughout the multitude, as if by previous concert, ito the Old South'' "hurra for the Old South," "down with the Old South," etc. And thither the multitude immediately rushed. The church known as the "Old South," was built by Protestants in 1905, and leased by the Catholics two years ago. Upon reaching the spot the door was inn mediately broken open, and the mass rushed in, and immediately commenced demolishing the pews, breaking and destroying everything that could be reached after which it was set on fire in about thirty places and entirely consumed. To the dsqrace of the authorities, the incen- diary mob 1,5OO in number, were permitted to leave, without single arrest. Asmost of them are known, however, it is supposed they will be arrested and punished.

CAPTURED AT LAsr.-In 1851, we publish ed an account of the whaleship Ann Alexan- der, Capt. Deblois, of this port, being attacked and stove by sperm whale. The whale was coming at the rate of fifteen miles an hour, and the ship going about five, at the time of the collision. The whale came with full force against the ships bows, and stove in several feet square, almost instantly sinking the vessel, and hardly giving those on board an opportu- tunitv to escape. The Honolulu Friend, of May G. states that about five months subsequent to the catastrophe, the same whale was taken by the Rebecca Sims, of this port Two har- poons were discovered in him, marked "Ann Alexander" The whales head was found se- riously injured and contained pieces of the ships timbers He had lost his wildness and ferocity, being very much diseased; but upon being taken, yielded seventy or eighty barrels of oil.-New Bedford Standard

 The census of California was very imperfect ly retu ned in 1850, and the population stated i4cluded only part of the Stlte, the other re- turns bei destroyed by fire in San Francisco. A State census was taken in 1852, which gave I'll, 841 whites, 1878 free persons of color, or of African origin, 31, ,2O6 domesticated Indians, ani 54, ,8O3 foreign residents.
 It will be seen that nearly two-thirds of the foreign population in 1850 were located in the Atlantic States, while but little more than one- third of the whole number were residing in the Western and Southwestern States. In the At lantic States the largest proportion of the po pulation of foreign birth is to be found in the most populous cities and towns, but in some of the Western States the foreigners from large proportion ot the agricultural population of that section of the country.
 There were, we believe no official records kept of the number of emigrants to the United States prior to the year 1920 Since that time. the collectors of the customs have been reuuir- ed to make quarterly returns of the passengers arriving by sea in their respective districts but the returns were often very defective preyi- ous to the year 1883. Seybert, in his statistical annals of the United States, gives statement showing that 22, 2,24O passengers arrived in ten of the principal ports of the United States dur ing the year 1917. He estimated the number of foreign emgrants to the United States from l790 to 1910, at 6O0O annually, on an average. Professor Tucker, in his work on the progress of the United States concurred in that esti- mate, and calculated the number arriving from 181Oto 1920, at 1l4OOO for the whole period.
 The following table of the emigrants who ar- rived in the United States from foreign coun- tries, by sea, for series of years is given by Seaman, in his Progress of Nations, viz:

Wonderful and Extraordinary Cure of Rheumatism of 20 Years, Standing.

Never in my life have had so much pleasure, in doing any thing as in giving this certificate to the world. and hope it may be the cause of thousands of my fellow creatures being relieved from that dread tul disease, rheumatism. My wife has been afflicted with 1t for 20 years most of the time suffering eXcru catng pans III every part ot her body. Having no appetite whatever, she reduced to almost skee- ton. So violent were the pains that she seldom could sleep without taking large doses of opium Every joint was swelled very much, and her knees. hands and neck, covered with large Jumps. She could do no kind of work, the sinewS and muscles being so hard and contracted that her limbs were drawn to- gether so that she obliged to be i'll bed constant ly. In this condition she had been for twenty years without ever getting any relief from every thing she used, until she commenced the use of Il. G. FAR RELLS ARABIAN LINIMENT the first bottle of which produced great change. She has now used i've bottles, and the swellngs have nearly all gone down. pain has entirely left her; she sleeps well and Soundly; is eshy than ever she was in her life has an excellent appetite and spins and sews all day By the use of few bottles she must be as well as ever she was. If any one doubts this wonderful cure he has only to call my residence Peoria and learn the circumstances from my wfe's own lips, or he can further inquire of any of my neighbors

Protestant churches, besides large number of minor sects which is notincluded The whole number of churches in the United States in 1850 was 38,O61, of which more than 96,8OO were Protestant places of worship. The excite m ent, therefore, against the progress of the Ro- man Catholics, does not seem to be founded on reasonable grounds, if relative numbers is to be taken in cons ideration. We, however, place
 the facts in the case before our readers, as part of the history of our times, leaving all who read to judge what is likely to be the probable result of the extraordinary issue got up by the leaders of the Native Americans under their new organization of Know Nothings.

and Territories acquired from France, Spain and Mexico The ratio of mortality, it should be noticed, is much greater among foreigners arriving in the United States than among native citizens. The foregoing table of the arrival of emigrants in the U. s. during period of thir- ty years, which is nearly the term allotted to a generation of mankind by philosophy, is re- markable, as corresponding so nearly with the number of foreigners in the United States in 1850, as determined by the census.
 With the emigration to the Uunited States since 179O, the white population has doubled III about twenty-three years. It may be said with regard to the increase of population pre- vlous to that period, that the revolutionary war checked immigration, and the ratio of increase. The emigration to Pennsylvania and the South ern colonles was much greater during the whole of the 18th century than it was to New Eng land and New York; and hence the population of the former increased most rapidly.
 1t will be noticed that the emigration of Eu- ropeans to this country did not sensibly affect the total amount of population until very re- cent period, say within the last twenty years, the number of emigrants arriving in the United States in 1920, being less than forty thousand, and in 1885, only 45, 44f. More than two- thirds 
 the peace with Great Britain in 1915, has taken place since the year 1S4O.
 With regard to the effect of emigration upon the politics of the country it is doubtless true, as is generally believed, that it has been favora- be to the democratic party, large proportion of the naturalzed citizens having uniformly voted with that party. There has, however, always been a counteracting element to the Irish Catholic and other influences of the same kind, in the German, Scotch, and English Pro- testant influence of emigrants from the British and German dominions within the last twenty years. The hostility of these Protestant emil grants from Europe against the Catholics and the Roman Catholic religion is much greater than is felt by American Protestants oil ques- tons relating to religion and religious liberty It Is not therefore surprising that many of the European Protestants favor the movements of the Know Nvthings, and rejoice in their success
 The proportion of Roman Catholics. to Pro- 'estants ill the United States is but small in comparison, according to the Census of 1850, of their respective number of churches viz Roman Catholic churches, l, ,22l; principal Pro- testant churches viz.

Or We fully concur with our neighbor of the Penny Post, ia the following suggestions with reference to Yale College, and commend them to the attention of our readers:
 "The Rev. Professor Goodrich, of Yale Col lege, declares that the members of the faculty of that institution are unit in opposition to slavery. He takes occasion too, to inform the South that Yale cares nothing for its patronage. It is evident from the tone employmed by this fanatic, that any Southern man who sends his son to Yale College, will be subjecting him to influences that must infallibly render him a Southern man with Northern principles. Yale is now hot bed of aboltionism, a nursery of fanaticism. The professors are all abolition propagandists, and employ the power that their positions confer in making their pupils as thor oughly anti-slavery as themselves. In view of this fact, will Southern men, hereafter, send their children to Yale. In the language of Profes sor Goodrich, we say to the South, "the sooner you withdraw your patronage from Yale, the better''

From the N. Y. Herald. The Know Nothings.

The Knoc Nothing Organizatson-Locatiom Q,
 tbe Native and Foreign Population ef Me
 United States.
 The recent operation at elections of the na- ,;,,o Americans, under their new secret organ ;zaton of Know Nothings, and the importance which they are likely to assume at future elec- .;ons render 1t interesting to examine the rela- tive proportion of the native and foreign white emulation of the United States, also the loca- lion of these two classes of population, as as- oortained bv the last national census, viz: for 1850. We have therefore prepared the follow mo tables for the information of the readers of the Herald, which, we doubt not, will attract rnuch attention at the present time.
 By the census of 1850, it appears that of the white population of the United States, then amounting to 19,553,O5 there were born in foreign countries 2,24O, ,535 persons, viz: males, 239, 434; females, 1,OO1, ,lOl. Those ascer- tained to have been born in the United States amounted to 17 ,279 ,875, and 32,658 were re- norted unknown as to their nativity. It thus appears that the proportion of natives to for eignera in 1850 was nearly eight to one in the United States. It should be observed that since the census of 1850 was taken, the foreign po- puation has largely increased by immigration, amounting to over one million in all; SO that the number of persons of foreign birth now in the United States, may be stated at about three and half millions. The proportion of Ger mans among the recent immigrants has been very great, as appears from the following ex- tract from an article in the New York Staats Zeit1lg, a German paper:
 "For many years the Irish immigration was much the largest, until suddenly from 69,883 in 1851, the German immigration increased to l18, ,l26 in 1852, and thus surpassed the Irish. The following figures how the condition of the immigration during the last six years:

CANADA AN INDEPENDENT K1NGDoM

CANADA AN INDEPENDENT K1NGDoM.-The New York Journal of Comm cree is inclined to attach credit to rumor from England of its being contemplated to send Viceroy, instead of Governor General, to Canady-a Viceroy who shall be a member of the Royal Family of England-the Duke of Cambridge, the cousin of the Queen, being named as the first. There may be an ulterior object in view. It may be intended to make it separate kingdom, as a settlement for one of her Britannia Majesty's numerous progeny. Such an idea has already been whispered. But it is for the people of Canada to settle that question.

IDoLATRY IN JAPAN-An officer in the U s. frigate Powhattan, writing from Japan, says: |" Idolatry is everywhere to be seen, even more than in China, and statuary seems to be very common. The graveyards are full of rude sculptures, and images of gods and heroes, plac- ed there as tutelar guardians on the tomb-stones, or for some such purpose.
