CATHOLICISM IN THE UNITED STATES.

The inordinate warnings of the Great Head
if the Catholic Church at Rome, to gain Sc
cure foothold in the United States, has for many
wears, awakened the serious apprehensions of
the friends of civil and religious liberty in all
parts Of the country But 50 little has been
said about it, SO little has the political press,
under the fear of offending and alternating that
growing class of voters, the Catholics, discussed
the matter, or laid before tho public the neces-
sary statistics for forming intelligent opinions,
that the great mass of our people are probably
wholly unaware of the extent Of the progress
to which Popery has now arrived among us, and
therefore unprepared to rank it among the great
dangers against which free America should be
put upon her guard. But that Popery has now
become one of the controlling powers of the
United States, can no longer be denied
From the census of 1850, and other reliable
sources, it is ascertained that the following were,
at that period, the number and extent Of the
circulation Of the Catholic journals in the United
States, all conducted by men of learning and
ability, but mostly by priests, and all taking
their cue directly from the Pope and his Coun-
Gil at Rome

ing none. The result Of that move is likely

ing none. The result Of that move is likely
to prove the players unskillfal.
Demonstrations in the way of dinners, and
of special facilities for travel, were quite too
limited in their range for the real object in
view. These might comfort the soul of the
Nuncio, but their influence upon the polls
would be too remote for any practical benefit.
At last, however, the moment came. The
fearing for the honor and dignity of the Amer
lean people, and desiring to cultivate friend
ly relations with his Holiness, passed compli-
ments upon the Nuncio, and instituted inqui-
aies as to his mission and his reception. Mr..
Cass, the veteran of the old file democracy;
Mr.. Douglas, the champion of Young Amer
lea; Mr.. Everett, the representative of the
eFete Websterian dynasty in Massachusetts,
each dispensed some gracious drops of elo-
quence upon the prosecuted Nuncio Their
speeches are duly reported, and their position
is defined. Bnt politicians are not always
clear-sighte while attempting to mount the
giddy height of the Presidency. These gen.
tlemen have chcck-mated each other; and,
what is more, they have chcck-matcd them
selves. What will become of the votes of the
tens of thousands of Germans and Italians,
whose hatred of Bcdini is updsguised Will
MIR. Cass get them, or Mr. Douglas Or Mr.
Everett; or will they go rather to John P.
Hale? DO these gentlemen know that the
Union of political refugees in this city, which
is growing in numbers and power, is anti-pa-
pal to its core, not on religious but on poit-
ical grounds! Have they thought, too, of
the possible effect of this open bid for Ro-
man Catholic votes upon the minds of mil
lions of native Americans? We would know
neither Professionalism nor Nativism in our
political affairs We would 60 to the utmost
length for the equal rights of Roman Cath
olics as citizens without regard to their reli-
gion. We would not force the Bible upon
them or their children, for we have no right
to do this, either legally Or morally. 1t is
no concession to Romanists to withdraw the
Bible from the common school, it they object
to its use. This is but carrying out in good
faith the principles of religious liberty, and
Of true republicanism. Consistency in our
selves, as we'll as Il wise regard for the we'll
fare of Romanists, demands that we use no
legal or moral coercion in matters of faith.
But when politicians ally themselves with Ro-
manism as a political interest, then the great
body of American citizens, forgetting the be-
hcsts of party, will go quietly to the polls,
and consign the charataus to purgatory,
from which all the masses of Bedini will not
be able to extricate them. We are sorry Tor
Mcssrs. Cass, Douglas, and Everett, but real
ly VIC do not see how they can retrieve their
error.-.N J. Idcpradrm.

SYMPATHY FOR BEDINI

The visit of the notorious BEDINI to this
country, in the capacity of Papat Nuacio,
has called forth quite opposite demonstra-
tions from the two parties most interested in
poltico-papal movemcnts-the politicians
and the non-Catholic emigrant population.
The latter have everywhere looked with dis
gust and indignation upon the presence of
one whose reputation for cruelty would place
him at the head Of the Spanish lnquisitlon
two centuries ago. They have found it diff
cult to restrain their indignation within the
bounds of the law; but though they have ex-
pressed their contempt and hatred of the &C.
cleasistical monster by burning him in efhgy,
and by groaning in front Of his hotel, no vio-
lence has yet been offered to his person. We
trust that our foreign population do not need
to be taught, that, with the exception of those
whoshaye run away from unlawful bondage
upon American soil, every mans person is
here safe in the eye of the law, and that the
best guaranty of their own protection is CIV
en- in the like protection of their enemies.
But another class have given Bedini quite
a different reception. Politicians have hail
cd his advent as an accession of several thou
sand votes to their party, provided, of course,
that their cards should be well played. The
first card turned up at CINCINNATI, where the
police made an unjusti6able and murderous
assault upon procession Of Germans, who
had attempted no violence and were intend

This makes the circulation Of Catholic !ourn-
ais, at that time upwards of ffty-six thousand !;
and considering the efforts that have been ma
king, for the last three years. fcr the spread of
these publications, it would be no more than
reasonable to pace their circulation, at this
time, at from sixty to seventy thousand, and
their readers at ten times that number, which
would make two thirds of a million, d number
sufficient, as those readers are generally the lead
ing minds of their order, to contrel the entire
Catholic population in the United States.
Ii becomes, then, of no smaK Importance,
10Th in religious and political pent of view,
to know what sentiments and principles these
Journals arc implanting in the minds of this
large and rapidly increasing part of our popu-
lation And what principles do they inculcato!
Without exception, the most bitter intolerance
TO the Protestant Religion ; without exception,
open or disguised opposition to Republican prin-
ciples, and loyalty to the Despotisms of Europe
and, without exception, resistance and reproach
towards the great movement of the day to re-
lieve tho country from the curse and sin of hui
man bondage.
Now who is prepared to say that this power
may not soon and fearfully be felt in the poll
tics of the country! And who can doubt for
what Objects it will be exortoJ 1t will first
doubtless be felt by holding and exercising the
balance Of power in ear olectiens, as in the late
ciecton III Massachusetts This Will bring the
Ininions of Popery new advantages, which will
''e sure to be improved to strengthen them, and
make their cooperation more and more necessary
IN every succeeding election, and as Catholic
ireland is faster and faster pouring hen ignorant
hordes in among us, the time may not be distant
vhen their aid or opposition may decide the
fate Of every political movement in thescountry,
even to the election of a President. But when
that time does arrive, who may not see that the
Catholic Power, like the Slave Power of the
South now, will be able to command her own
price fer her servicesl And who may not sec,
Hlso, that just SC far as that price is paid her,
.just,so far will the .plvcess of subvertiDg our
free institutions be advanceli
We know not how this naay strike otl er3, but
10 us it has, for some time, appeared to asub-
.,ject which should command our earnest solici-
'tude and inquiry SO Jhat adequate antidotes

10 The Editor of the Springfield Tchsraph:
In my last, Mr.. Editor, | think established
fhc position that if there was any violation of
Iaincipc on tho part of the Free Sellers in the
Legislature. in forming coalition with either
of the other parties, it was as much violation
to form it wih the Wings as with the Old Line
Democrats-both standing on the same pro-
slavery platform. If it was wreng in useff to
coalosce for certain objects, with another party
which is pro-savery, then the fact that yotv,
snake good or bad barglin, in fixing upon the
terms OF the union cannot make it right. !
think, moreover, that it was established, that if
u was wrong as matter Of principle, for the
majority to enter into IL coalition with the Old
Llners, 1T was wrong, as a matter Of er,nciple
ior tne fifteen y to enter into coalition with
the Wings and that, if it was mere mottey
OF erped,ency, on both cases, then there was no
ground for either side to accuse the other Of
,odnt OF priec,ple-~dercliction of duty. perGdy
treason, and design to betray their party. and
