DG~ The August number Of the
Baptist Memorial contains the follow
ing article.
"ARoHBIsIrop HUauEs. The Rom
ish Church made sorry exchange of
champions when Bishop Hughes took
up the mantle of the deceased Bishop
of England as the advocate and defend
er of its faith and polity. The latter
was bland and courteous, and Ameri-
can both in principle and feeling; he
rarely failed to please by his urbanity
where his logic was at fault: but the
former in vulgar and abusive, with the
insolcnt airs of a captious foreigner,
and offends often by his coarsencss,
when his positions are most impregna-
BILE. He has been singularly unfortu-
nate hitherto, in his appearance before
the American people, aifording signal
illustration of that "vaulting ambition,
which o 'erloaps itself" In ecclesiastic
diplomacy he has committed series of
signal and stupendous blunders. His
controversy with Kirwan ended in his
Withdrawal from the field like SPAWN
ed horse from race. His attempt to
remould the Public School system, and
| to exclude the Bible from the schools,
aroused the American people to the i'm
portance of preserving that system in
tact from foreign and prelatic influence.
His plans for crushing out the spirit of
independence of Romish churches, has
provoked a sturdy resistance in his own
communion, and occasioncd the enact
ment of civil laws, restraining ccclesias-
I teal despotism. His alliance with
y denagogues for traffic IN political capt
al has created an ultra American party
whose cardinal principle is the exclu-
sion of foreigners and Catholics from
Office. The publication of his budget of
letters with Senator Brooks, is likely to
give the finishing stroke to Archbishop
Hughes reputation as 81 wary and sa-
gacious disputant. The Archbishop
bids fair to deserve the epitaph which
Joseph H., of Germany, an ADLER and
better man than the prelate, prepared
for himself: "Here lies man who
failed in all he ever undertook"

THE LOUISVILLE RIOTS!

The Councils Of Louisville have had COM
m'itee investigating the facts with regard to
the origin and causes of the recent riots in
that city. That committee have made
report which has been unanimously adopt

very conclusive character:
So far as our committee are apprized-
and we believe te are correct in making the
assertion-there was not an occurrence of

The property known "Quinns Row.
at the corner of Eleventh and Main streets,
was complete armory. For three weeks
previous to the election, arms and ammuni-

occupant of the premises Quinn, in conver-
sation with sundry gentlemen, asserted that
said guns would be used agnins, the Ameri-
cans, and actually exhibited balls which had
been moulded for the purpose CT shooting
