THE PROCESSION.

procession then formed, to proceed in a
body TO the Park and the above address to the
Common Council. They marched around the ground
without music or banners, and certainly rougher
uncouth set paraded in this city The vast
OF the crowd may be estimated from the fact that
they had eighty marshals. Mr. Ben. Price ofciated
Grand Marshal, assisted by Messrs. VIM. Arbutnnot,
Antoine Rickel, c. L. Richter, Robert Grant K. A.
Bailey, Charles Smith, and others The procession fled
out Of the parade ground and marched up West Wash
ington place to Broadway from thence to Clinton place.
Here the cry raised 'Let march up Fifth ave-
nue. and show ourselves to the aristocracy" This sug
geston adopted and the motley assembage paraded
up that renowned locality to the great asonishment of
its denizens, who might be crowding to the
windows and staring at the unwashed and greasy work
they filed past their paladia residences, minus
banners music. Theqnempcy ed said nothing but walk

EgRClBLY SAID.

Mackenzie, of the Kalida Venture.
writes down the following truths lorci-
bly,:
"Know Nothingism is the best expo.
sition of the practical athei SIN of the
times. Who, recognizinga God in re-
Iigion, and reality in the Faith Of
Christ can conscientiously call in the
aid Of secret sworn societies to PUT down
what they think a False Religion. If
they believe that true religion is incat.
able Of sustaining itself without un.
christian aid they can have hule con-
lidenre in Christianity. II they think
God needs such aid to keep His worship
pure, they must have but little belief Of
His existence. What is wanted among
religious proIe ssors TO put po"n- false
relgion--we are not disposed to de ter
mine which sect is correct and which is
not--is better exempliflcatlon in their
lives, of their being Christians, and not
Ihypocriiies, of their loving God and
not Mammon Of their practising charity
and not hatred under the cloak Of reli-
Iglous sanctity--what is wanted is more
real and intelligent religion and then
Christian men would not feel the need
of making pitiful appeals 10 Know
Nothingism orany other outside intiu-
ence to keep up the true church OF God.
A church and religion which only pro.
tected and sustained by such influence
is scarcely worth having or protesting.
We trust that the sober sense OF our
religionists--that the intelligence OF
those outsed the church will yet unite
to crush and put pown an order OF poll
ticians who require secrecy as means,
and darkness as a cover, and who while
making good professions can have no
better end than the bad meahs they EN-.
ploy.

The report we gave last week OF
Judge BARLEY, deciding that the Sher-
if was not al officer of the Probate
Court, is not true it seems.
We are authorized by Judge BARLEY
himself. says the Mansfield Shield and
Banner, to say that the statement made
by the Wayne County Dsmocrat is 1phoI-
ly incorrect, and that ne made no such
decisions. IL might be we'll that some
little caution should be used by editors
in giving publication to the loJse and
irresponsible statements of partizans and
lawyers who have failed in their cases,
1t is true, that Slibbs and the other
persons were discharged by Judge B. on
writ Of Habeos Corpus, and upon the
following grounds ..
lst. That the judicial power OF the
Prubate Court is expressly defined and
limited by statute; unI that in the e1,
ercise .ol criminal jurisdiction, he mast
strictly follow his statutory authority.
2d. That all process aud orders OF The
Proodte Court 10 an officer in execution
OF its Judgment aud sentence must be ia

81. That the Probate Court cannoI

and that a warrot Of commitment after
sentence, Tor criminal offence, issued
BY The Probate Cuurt, must be i, writing
and under the seal of the Court, and
