II seems that the friends of Mr.. II. J.

Ii seems that the friends of Mr.. Il. j. Walker
were little premature in announcing that his
deposit of $780, 900 in the stock of the Sussex Iron
Co. of New.Jersey had been definitely accepted by
the Government of Texas as security for the
building of the Pacific Railroad. The stock, duly
certified TO be good by Gov. Price, of New-Jersey,
Vice. President Dallas, and some person de.
scribed by the journals of Texas as " Chancellor
Kent" Of New-YOrk-an error evidently, since
the Chancellor died long since-has been ac-
cepted by Mr.. James II. Raymond, the Treasurer
of the State, but has been rejected by the Gov
ernor. Mr.. Raymond, we ought to sdd is him
self one of Walkers associates in the specula.
ton of course we don I suggest that such fact
can have any influence on his public conduct ia
the premises. So the case stands at present and
at the last sdvces Raymond was preparing a
statement of his reasons, 1--WE hope he will state
them all with view to convince the Governor
that the shares of the Sussex Iron Co. are
well worth SO 80 each, and may safely be taken
by the State as security for that aum. If he sue
ceeds in the effort, why, probably the operation
will be consummated, but net otherwise. We
see it is urged in quarters that the decision
rests with the Treasurer alone, but this opinion
is hardly cOnsonant with the words of the act,
which are as follows:
SEC u That said Company, person persons shall,
within sixty days after entering into the contract herein
provided deposit with the Ire Of State of Tex
least three hundred thousand dollars 10 gold silver evil
dneeo debt OF the State OF Texas other good
that fifty miles of said road shall be
and In complete order for business within the
of eighteen months from the date OF said aud II fifty
miles said road be completed according the
Of the then the Governor shall the said money
stocks be returned the said Company and In the
OF failure upon the part Of the said Company then such
be forfeited and become the property
thin the time prescribed said shall be null
void and the Governor Is hereby authorized TO enter
smother contract a. near as NAV be IN the terms OF this act
with any other company individuals tor the like purposes
1t is rather striking that the distinguished spec.
ulators who propose to build this immense work.
should have no better securities to offer than the
shares Of the Memphis Mechanics Bank, which
were refused by the Governor and have since
proved utterly worthless; or than the shares Of
this New.Jersey Iron Co, which at the best is
net much known in financial circles, and certainly
could not be sold for nything like its par value
This certainly does not promise very well for the
completion Of 80 miles of the road within eighteen
months as the Law requires.
What a splendid joke it would be if the repu-
dating State of Texas, which has taken ia so
many luckless people with its own scrip should
be similarly humbugged in turn We vote for
any stock Walker and Raymond may have to Offer
Let Texas be done!

DISTRESS IN CONNECTICUT.

A friend was lately conversing with the keeper
of the Connecticut State Prison, who complained
of bis inability to supply the contractors for labor
in that institution with the number of men bar
gained for in their several contracts; for, said
he, "we have good many going out from time
"to time, and almost nothing coming in" Ifthe
Prohbitory Liquor Law of that State should be
as well inforced through the zexs three years as
it has been through the last three months, we ap
prehend that the keeper will have to repudiate
his still outstanding contracts altogether, or hire
hor est, unconvicted laborers to work them cut.
We caution the managers Of our State Prisons
against making contracts ahead for the labor Of
anything like the present number OF prisoners.
We are going to have PrOhibitory Liquor Law,
gentlemen and that insures a great reduction Of
the convict force in our State Prisons. Be good
enough to shape your contracts with view to
this fact.
BY the way, Connecticut is this day the most
moral and happy State in the Union by reason of
her ProhibitOry Law. Ii is well enforced, and it
is doing even more good than its friends anti
cpated.

zion, exercises conde nned By his Church, IL not
merely . bigot. but short sighted blcckhead
Pretending to combat that portion OF the Romish
Priesthood who las is sllege wish to keep their
neople isolated and ignorant, be Is playing
DIRECTLY into their hands, and doing for them
what they could not do for themselves. Ii they
desire to Keep their children out OF our free
scbools. he is furnishing them with ample and
rIausible reasons for so doing.
In fact, every attempt to affx stigma to the
adherents of any particular Church, or to deprive
them of Political rights, no matter how specious
the prete1t, ia essentially un-Americsu and un.
worthy of the age in which our lot has been cast
IL they are ignorant, the more need that they be
instructed if bigoted, the more need that they
be treated with liberality. Evil is not overcome
by evil nor can wrong be redressed by wrong.
Not till we are as willing to concede rights to
our pOwerless neghbors as to claim them for our
selves are we worthy to bear the hoaored name
of American.
The recent demonstration by the Catholics Of
Hartford, the persistent refusal of the congrega-
ton of St. Louis at Buffalo to surrender It's cor
porate property TO the BIshop, and many o'her
incidents, prove how rife with the germs of re-
Igious as well as political freedom is the atmos-
phere Of this country. Let the Catholics alone,
and it would be morally impossible to keep them
in spiritual trammels beyond the second genera
tion But to wage war upon them and threaten
them with political prescription is to quench
every spark of inquiry or religious freedom in
their breasts and drive them back into unreason-
ing subserviency to their priestly superiors. 1t
is to close their minds against every liberalizug
influence and render them deaf to every suggestion
Of manly independence. If the Roman hierarchy
were to devise scheme for the express purpose
of increasing its power over the Catholics of this
country and adding to their number, it could have
bit upon nothing more effectual than the " Know
Nothing" demonstration and its natural fruits.

SCATTERING NOTES.-The Albany Atlas is
trying to pick up scattering votes enough for some
sort of Seymour to reflect the candidate of the
Liquor dealers Association, but we infer that its
progress is not very satisfactory. The Clerk Of
Kings County reports Is votes for Seymour"
without frat name or initial end 2 for " II. Sey-
"mour;" with 3 for CLARK" for "Myron
CLARK, and l for Daniel Clark" The Clerk
of Eric County reports that county as we have
it in our tables with probably more for sey-
"mour from scattering" These two counties
were more likely to give scattering votes for sey-
they may as well give it up.

for dtlusory purposes; and the sspiraut for Office
in Liberia who will cay pretty things of the
country is be who succeeds. The Government is
pronounced feeble and the municipal arrange
mepts worthless. For every mouthfal of beef
the Liberians get they are dependent on the ma
tiyes. There is no regular market Scarcely
any Of the people in the city work, but nesry all
sit down and depend on living BY trade with the
natives; and thus while few with capital grow
rich, most of them live only from hand TO mouth.
The policy, too. with the natives is condemned.
The latter neither attend churches nor schools.
One teacher with sixty scholars counts not SIN
gle nstiye among them. While African education
is wholly neglected FIRE arms are literally sold to
the ssysges to destroy, if they choose the set
tiers. The town is on the seaboard, and there
is 10 road FIVE miles into the interior. Tne
tribes combined could easily destroy the colony.
With all these shortcomings, our correspondent
INDUCES in some tropical eoquence, praising the
civilization of the colony This seems quite Car
GILMAN. and reminds US Of the rodomontade of
Mr.. Calhoun on bis rative State, which he pulled
lust in proportion to her backwardness.
Our correspondent invites the colored philan-
tbropists of the United States to come over and
lend hand to reform the abuses of Liberia, and
so elevate the race. Among the citations Of the
writer, who gives chapter and verse for bis asser
tons respecting the abuses of the Colonial Gov
eminent and Society, is the case Of the Morgsn
Dix, which sailed from Baltimore in 1851 with
Isl emigrsnts, and arrived at Bassa au we'll, so
reported in The african Repository for December,
1851, and April, 1852. OF the whole number,
but nine are living, the rest having died-sacri-
feed by sending them to such a climate without
necessary sanitary arrangements. These alega-
tions being thus brought to tie attention of the
public we hope to hear that the necessary rem
edes are promptly applied, or the confidence of
the country in this important enterprise must
altogether disappear.

The Troy Budget thus dsrkens counsel with re-
gard 10 tie Catholic Church Property nuestisn.

In this State, an attempt hiss been made to get
law passed through Legislature giving to Bishops
the legal right under Constitution to hold church
property in their name, irresponsible Of trustees
or corporations. The effort was defeated, and will
be defeated often as it shall be repeated. We trust
that this object has been abandoned but we hear that
the present visit ofone of the Bishops Of this State to
Rome has reference 10 II"
Now the facts in the case are these: l. The
Roman Catholic Bishops do nOp, by virtue of
conveyances made to them, hold all, or nearly all,
the Catholic Church property in the country.
The act proposed in our Legislature gave them
no legal righttO hold Church property n their
Gown name, but, on the contrary enabled them
to bold it as trustees, in accordance with the

The Commissioners Of Estimate and Assess
ment yesterday returned to the Board Of Cover
nors Of the Aims House for revision, the estimates
of that body for the coming year. Among the
items objected to, we notice $4,000 for feeding
visitors, and 81, 800 for wines and braudies. 1t
would be edibing to know exactly how many
gallons Of these choice liquors are really used by
the poor and the sick, how far such use is neces-
sary, and how much is guzzled by that wide
itomached band ofpublic feeders who hang open
mouthed around the City dinner tables.
