The PrOhibitOry Law

We make the following extract from let.
ter written by the Bishoo of Dubuque to the
Boston Pilot and published in that paper Of
the 24th ult. From the powerful influence
thus cast In favor of that law we doubt not
that it will be susta ned by an overwhelming
majority Davenport Gazette.
We request you also, sir, for the interest
OF our holy religion. and for the temporal
and eternal welfare of the Catholics. for
whom you shall have to answer at the bar Of
the tribunal OF God, to use publicly and pri-
vately all arguments in your power to per-
suade them to vote, on the first Monday of
next April, in favor Of the Iova iquor lar.
his last measure may appear Objectionable
20 some persons, but they must bear in mind
that We are most unjustlv accused of being
careless about enforcing the practice Of the
noiy virtue OF temperance; and that, il we
90 not avail ourselves of this favorable op-
portunity to show our great esteem for any
thing that may counterfeit the henious crime
OF intemperance,as this liquor law NAV dow
shall undoubtedly supply our enemies with
some pretext to believe us to be guilty.
In conclusion, we give. from the bottom Of
our heart, to you. rev. dear sir. and to all
our children in Christ, the Episcopal bene-
diction.

Burlington tri-weekly hawk-eye. [volume] (Burlington [Iowa]) 1852-1855, 1855-03-08

Cv Spain, formerly one of the most pros
porous and powerful countries of Europe, is
now one Of the most degraded and powerless.
1t has an admirable geographical position,
possesses excellent harbors, has fertile soil
and abounds in valuable mines; but through
the intolerance and superstition of Pop"ry,
the people are degraded, and the country
has sunk to the lowest rank among nations.
Olive Oil is imported from France though
the country is covered with olive trees. The
gas company at Madrid buys its coal in Eng
land though there are coal mines unworked
within 60 miles. Iron ore abounds, but costs
three times rs much as in Belgium. The
finances of the country are in he worst con-
dition, and it has been bankrupt two or three
times.
