A GOOD Hir.--The New York Herald thus
pitches into the Richmond Enquirer
(WHICH IS WHICH p--The Richmond Enquirer
says the London Times always arrays itself in "a
vor Of any movement against the welbeing Of tho
United States. This assertion is called out by the
Timess articles approving of the principles Of the
new American movement. The Richmond Enqui-
rer forgets that the London Times was as ardent
in support of General Pierces election to the
Presidency as it is now in favor of the American
party. Was the London Times, in supporting
General Pierce, maliciously arrayed against the
well-being of the United States? We rather think
so, but will ask our confrere of the Richmond
Enquirer for his opinion on the subject.

Madame LIE Vert, of Mobile, Is now In Paris
In letter 70 friend in Mobile, Mad lie Vert re-
lates the following interesting incident:
ION the day of our arrival in Madrid we dined
at the Mesa Redonda--the Table d'Hota.' Near
~ all the persons present were members Of Las
Cortes and their conversation was consequently
on the theme Of the mornings debate--the forma-
ton Of a now constitution. One Of the members,
10 whom all listened In rapt attention, was giving
bis views on the subject, and his peroration was
uttered with the enthusiasm of devotee, and in
perfect inconsistencies of the propinquty of any
Americans. In truth, he exclaimed, there Ia
on the earth but one model government--but one
that should strive to initiate, for IL is the one
alone worthy Of man in his majesty 1t Is the gov.
ernment Of the United Statesi'
"No words can tell you the glow Of pride and ex-
ultation which thrilled my very SOUL and sent the
warm blood into my cheeks. Ny eyes must have
told my delight for the speaker, catching their
glance, instantly continued, as he looked on me-
The Sonora must be al American
"You can fancy how rapidly we then all became
acquainted, and with what seeming pleasure they
questioned Of and listened to, everything respect
ing my beloved country. Oh il Is a glorious
thing to be an American. There ia spell about
the word that commands affection, as much rs
respect, from the high as well as the lowly"

We are informed that on Sunday next / 9Th inst
a Iridium, or three days devotional exercise in
commemoration of the dogmatical definition of the
Immaculate Conception Of the Blessed Virgin
Mary" will commence in st. Augustine's Church.
Splendid preparations are being made for the due
celebration Of the important event. Professors
Rohr and Thunder intend to honor the occasion
with selection of gems from the greatest masters
of church music, and that they will be ably per-
formed by st. Augustn mes choir, is matter Of
doubt to no one who attended the recent Orato-
res Of Rossinis Stabat Mater, in Concert Hall.
Not only win the approaching festive celebration
afford the lovers of sacred song an opportunity of
enjoying rare musical feast. They will also have
an opportunity Of hearing an exposition Of the
dogma of the g Immaculate Conception, from the
Very Rev. DR.. Moriarty, one of the most eloquent
divines of the day, who is announced to preach
series of sermons on the subject.
Ut is to be hoped the Professors will not Roar
and Thunder SO loud as to fighten that other Elm

having been in Rome, or Madrid, or Mexico, has
not got used to such spectacles at home, yet)

lady from Troy, getting out Of the cars In this
city, caught young man In the act Of drawing her
port monnaie from her pocket, and succeeded in
causing his arrest. The officer conveyed him to
the Tombs, and the lady accompanied them. The
charge Of pocketpcking was duly made before the
justice, who was about committing him, when the
lady interfered in the young mans behalf and re-
quested the court TO let him off upon his promising
TO conduct himself better in the future. This the
young man promised to do, and expressed himself
sorry for committing an act so dangerous 10 his
welfare. He said that this was the first time he
had ever committed theft; and II also appeared
that his parents were respectable, and that he him
self had borne a good name. The justice finally
consented 10 permit the young man TO leave the
court for the present, and the lady, after giving
him lengthy and good lesson Of advice, paid the
officers fee, gave tho young man a tokei, Of re.
membrance, left the Tombs for the residence of
her friends. The young man accompanied her
some distance, saw her cafe in an omnibus, and
