A Candid AdmIssIOn,

In the following paragraph which we copy from
the South Side Virgiria) Democrat, the reader will
not fail to notice and remember the very candid ad-
mission of ex-senator Hale:
" Col, Fayette McMullen, the representative in
Congress from the Washington district in this State
stated in public speech few days SINCE that in re-
ply to an interrogatory which he propounded to the
noted New Hampshire know-nothing and free-soiler,
John P Hale, as to the object of the know-nothing
organization, Hale remarked that WE MEAN TO ABo-
L1TIoNIzE THE SOUTH, AND INTEND TO DO IT.

gentlemen, and to all he made the declaration"

Systematic Roorbacking. We hardly know
which is most remarkable in its way, the fact
that every item of the New York Hsrald's
EXCLUSIVE Washington news. by telegraph,
turns out to be false from beginning to end, or
the gresdiness with which it is copied by the
new York Mirror and other Northern jour
mas that are eternally commenting, in indig-
nant terms, upon the utter mendacity of that
Journal and the sweeping unreliability of its
statements about any and everything. The
fnnee'John's-dinner story of the Herald, at
which the President was represented to have
been guest, affords an example. 1t wascopisd
into the Mirrors columns as gospel truth. With

A REBELLIOUs CATHOLIC CHURCH A letter
appears in the Troy IN. " papers from the
congregation of st. Peters (Catholic) Church
to the Bishop of Albany, which be declined TO
accept. The congregation, therefore, appeal to
their " individual Sovereignty" and elect
Trustees to manage their affairs, in accord
ance with the laws of New York. The petit.
ton to the Bishop stated that the church would
raise 2 revenue of $4,000 per annum, to be
placed in the hands of three Trustees to be
chosen by the congreg alton. The people close
their letter by saying that they "have deter.
mined to elect Board of Trustees and abide
by the consequences"

sPIsrr OF THE MORNING PRESS.

The Intefttgeneer says of squatter sove-
reignty, as carried out in Kansas:
4 eff weeds and brambles have
sprung up, no principle Of natural philosophy
has been violated; the plant has been the le-
climate product of the germ, and the fruit
net always such as pleaseth the taste of the
eultiyator. 1t is enough, however, that there
has been prompt action in Kansas upon the
premises laid down. Not only has there been
the largest liberty but the greatest variety
of what has sometimes been enthusiastically
termed the heaven born BOOM At one time
We have n vote, not merely of regular inhab-
itants of the Territory, but of those who, by
the use of the light canoe or the capacious
steamer, can transport themselves rapidly
from a neghboring State and become resident
long enough to exercise the right of suffrage
ana the result is the election TO Congress of q
pro slavery man under the forms of law
the Legislature affirming and the Governor
dissenting. few days later, another set of
sOTereigas, under n higher law than any
made by statute, gather together, proclaim
the inherent right of man to govern himself,
and also elect representative to Congress-
'free-State advocate.
The Union quotes the resolutions adopted at
the very last meeting in Tamany Hall, hold
ing them up in contrast with the sentiments
ayowed by John Van Buren, in his late
speeches. The same paper calls public atten-
ton to the mendacity of the Courier des
Etats Unis, in its efforts to bring the Govern.
rent Of the United States into disrepute.

testimony and the finding of the bloody clo-
thing of one of his victims, and the watch.
rings, pocket book, &c, of the other in his
possession, stoutly persists that he did not com.
NIT the murders and asserts that he therefore
cannot make confession. On Thursday he
requested the jaiior to go to Lehr' s tavern, the
place where he was arrested, and demand
back part ofthe 81 so paid him for one weeks
board in advance, as all he had for it was his
supper and bed part of one night. He states
that he is native of SAKE Msiningen, Germa-

The PERFECTION OF IMPUDENcE.-For cool
impudence German, by the name of Tybalt,
just arrested in Philadelphia, is the paragon.
Having hired a horse and carriage at a livery
stable, he snapped them off for a gold watch
and considerable sum Of money subsequent
~ pleGglng the watch at a pawnbroker's for
an additional SUM- He then wrote TO the
owner of the horse and carriage telling him
that the horse ran away, breaking the car
riage to pieces and injuring him (Tybalt) SO
that he was confined to his bed, suggesting
the propriety, at the Same time, of Offering q
reward for the recovery of the horse. He
next wrote to the man who had bought the
horse and carriage, telling him that he would
save himself some trouble by returning them
to the rightful owner, and that, as for the
watch. the better way was to say nothing
about it

few yards, from sevon to nineteen dollars is
charged, according to circumstances. pilot
fee for vessel drawing fifteen feet is from
$500 to SAT, with an increase of 50 a foot
