correspondence of the Baltimore Patriot.l


In the event OF the election Of Mr.. Dobbin, of n:
c. 10 the Senate Mr.. Mallory Of Florida, is regarded
ms hi, probable successor ut the head OF the Navy
Department. Mr. Mallory is native OF Maine, and
emigratrd Ia Key West when youth, in 1923. He
is ca;tuc, but without blGo;ry, and is married TO
an cs:!mablc Spanish lady OF Pensacola. He was
connected with the Cus,on-housc At Key West, for
several years previous Ia his appointment! as Collector
of that por by Mr.. Polk. His election to the Senate
was altogether unexpected by himself. He received
on that nrci!siulI the vote of the Nhg members ot
the legislature with the addition OF three votes from
the Democrats. Although Democrat, lac l. not
rabd partisan, and is chiefly distinguished Tor his
advocacy of Naval Reform. He is n decided TREND
70 the annexation of Cuba, and is thoroughly cogn-
zant of the plans formed for the accomplishment
of that obiacr. In private liie he is emlneny social
nffnblc and accessible. He is Of irish dcsccnt ana
endowed with many Of the proverbia virtues OF his
race. .
The appointment of Mr.. Mallory 10 be Secretary Of
the Navy will be strcnuousy opposed By a majority
Of the Naval officers and heir friends Inc o'hcers
of the Navy great stickeTs tor the prrleGes OF
their profession, as the peacemen ot the English
church They will stand bv their order till its last
uu fires and will surrender their present emo
Iuments, If they can possibly prevent il.
Mr.. Dobbin has returned to his post and his friends
report that his election TO the Senate is arranged def
nitey. He viii be chosen probably to fll the vacau.
cy already existing and may, therefore, be expected
10 take his sea: in the Senate during the coming wn

RELIGIOUS TOLERATIOE.

The Penusylvsniam has been for some time nbly ea-
paced in searching the records OF the pGst TO show
the deep devotion of the earlier patriots Of America
TO the rrcu cause of religious toera;ion So thorough
" were Washington aud his associates imbucd with
true Christian tolcraon savs the PcnTsy yvanian, that
somn of them questioned the necessity Of providing
agninst such tests assigning as reason, that it was
not then and never would be required among the
American people The 9th article 0! the Constitution
of the United States, only required officers Of the
United States and of the several States, u take
au outh 20 support the Constitution but MIR. Pinck
ney moved to add to that the following words,
now nur, of that article 20 wit "but no religious test
shall ever be required qualification to any office Of
nnhIic trus under tie United Stues" To this Roger
Sherman objected that itsccmcd an unnecessary pro-
vision for such was the liberGlity OF tho American
peope that none would be required; but Govcncur
Norris and Mr.. Pinckney supported the amendment,
and without further opposition it was unanimously
passed. Thus with Jealous care did these wise and pa
triotic men guard the ber OF thcpcnple from future
peril and from the zeal O.. passion or prejudice. Bar
above all the States and people in this Union. Penn
sylvania and her citizens have been the first and
consistent in guarding against religious tests, in
tolerance or prescription for conscience sake. Al
though good christian and subject, VIM. Penn had
been fined pilloried md Imprisoned iar his religious
opinions. Ii was not concndrd TINT he acted badly,
but TINT he thought crroneonsy, and therefore, that
his opinions would at some future time work danger
To the State Such has always been the argument, Of
the bigocd md intolcrant Ii WIS the plea of Hcrod
when he slaughtered the innoccn;s,-of the Jews
when thcv crllcilrd Chrst,-of the Pagams who per-
secuted Christians. and which Catholics and Protcs-
tauts have alike used when Strengthening each other.
That il WA. false Penn knew, and hc determined that
it should ne,er be appealed 10 or used as All excuse
in the State which lie Was about 10 found. How
deeply he was Interested in this question the records
of his liit the liberal principles pervadins the gov
ernncnt he established here and the ,aly legislation
Of this province abundantly show. And unlcss We
greatly uvcres;lnatc the virtue and intelligence Of
our people the day yet far distant when they shall
be so lost to justice, to humanity, and 10 the higher
dictates Of Christianity to rcrosadr ia the bigotry
md intolerance ui the dark ages.
