RETURN OF MARY WILLIAMS ID PGuper Sent
Back.-Nlary Williams, poor Irish woman, who,
with her infant child Torn in this country, was
sent back to Ireland against her will, under the
laws OF this State arrived AT this port lew days
ago, in the ship Chatswofth, Capt Gorham, one oil
Enoch Trains Liverpool packets. AT the time oil
her extradition there was considerable excitement
and discussion i'll the newspapers, and when Mr..
Tram was informed Of the circumstances he de-
clared that his strips were not intended for prison
ships, and Immediately sent for her, rendering her
free passage u this country. He also issued or
lers thatevery passenger on board his ships should
hencelOTth be Questioned, and IL GOud 10 be un-
willing TO return to the Old World, should lmme-
diatrly be Landed. Several gentlemen olIeIed 10 pay
her passage and other expenses, but Mr.. Train de-
clIned.to receive anything, and they now have q II
opportunity to beStOw their aIl upon the woman
herself. She was in Mr.. Trains office on We'd
neSday. when several gentlemen conveISed with
heT She IS a tidy looking woman, 0ged % or 80
years, and her babe is bIght specimen of Young
America, about year old. Those WHO have ta-
ken an interest III her welfare, will see that she is
provided fur.
Mr. Trains ships now return to Liverpool with
almost as many passengers they lbring from that
port. The Daniel Webster, which sails OH Tues
day, will have about 400 passengers. Of which so
are paupeTS, sent back at the. States expense
FheYgO willingly, Of course, many of them hav-
ing pel:tlonell to be sent back. Many of the re-
manning $50 are possessed of considerable means,
and several go back merely for short VISIT with
the intention oil returning 10 this country. Some
of them have procured bills of exchange for sums
varying from $500 TO 1900, and Others leave por-
ton OF their earn gs i'll the Savings Banks in this
country. There are three or four CalIfOtlians
among them, who have acquired considerable

SoSo OF THE HIAwATHA.-of the new poem
which Longtellow has now in press, we find the
subioinel bret notice in the Crayon of Ibis week:
'T have been reading the sheets of Longfellow's
new poem-it will be published IN month or two.
Il is called the Song of the Hiawatha, and wholly
founded on Indian-American Indan-legenlS.
Nisysry original, and has the simplicity and charm
OF a Sage. There is little human interest IN 1t,
hntthe character of the Indian legend is admirably
preserved. 1t is the very autidopes of 'rennysons
poetical, very morbid. irrelisious and painfnI.
Teunyson, like so many of our modern poets, for.
gets that beauty required in true poem. and
that happiness is finer aud nobIer thing than

DEsrRucTtoN OF TIE CATHOLIC CmURcH IN SIP
NEY.-'rhe Sidney (Ohio) Banner furnishes the
following account OF The recent attempt 10
destroy the Catholic Church in that place:
About 10 o'cLIck in the evening, our citizens
were startled by sharp report, followed by a
crash and The light tolIing of a bell. The shock
was so sudden, severe and unexpected, that il
naturally alarmed the tilld. and nslonIshed all
who heard it. In Short time it proved 10 be the
demolition OF the Catholic Church, caused by the
explosion Of key of powder which Soule fiend OF
fends hal placed under it. The exact position
Of the keg has been Traced, and the burnt, grass
Or some FIFTEEN or twenty feet north ofthe building
tells plainly how the deed had been accomplished.
The building was an old flame, of but snnll
value-say n few hundred dollars. The house,
with the furniture, completely demolished;
but the loss is trring. The powder was stolen
from Mclean & Taylor, dealers i'll hardware and
groceries, and had been secreled i'll an out building
some distance from the store.
As nothing Of public character has occurred
recently TO cause an amimoSity TO this partlcu Ia
sect. and as no outbreak has ever been known
here between native and foreign born, or Protest.
nnt and Catholic, we deem it our duty here to re-
mark that ii is not possible the result of polit-
cal or religious hatred.
Our town authorities are doing all they can 10
bring the perpetrators 10 Justice. A reward OF
5000 was Immediately ofIered "lor any information
ns would secure the Apprehension and conviction
OF the villainS' individuals have Offered to hbeT-
ally increase the reward. s4

BARGAINING ON SUNDAY.-A Scotch paper has
the following account Of the mode by " hch bust
ness may be Transacted OH Sunday and no harm
done:
'Long before there was any word Of disruption,
and when the Church of Scotland was deemed by
those who have since seeded from her communion
as the glory OF the Whole earth, the following
conversation ensued between his reverence, now
IN the Free Church, ami one of the henterS i'll
rural parish, on Sunday forenoon, immediately
after divine service
'Weel, John, there's fine day.
cit IS that, Sir was the reply.
That's a fine pony you have got, John.'
'No caunier or better behaved creature in the
parish, savn yerself,' replied Hodge.
'If it had not been Sunday said the man of
Scripture, i would have been InQuting the price
of it,

it hAdna heen Sunday, as ye Sau, would hae said

'Vsry wecl, Sir. That's bonny stack o. hay
We had i The yhrl-l womIdna he ia waur o. a

Il think the more Of you for that, John, as il is
just the why with mySel, for had it not been tins
hallowed day, would have salt, ninepence per

day in Arnrnalh, and what are you asking for your
Ayrshire bull calf, and so om.'
'Deed NY, Sir; but rs we Gamma be tellin' that
wheat raise a shllin', and ats fifteen pence the
quarter, on sic a day this, an it would be just
as i'll Sayn that the bit caules with thirty Shlns

Good day John.'
'Guid day, SIR was then passed, and thus end

worldly satisfaction oil both parties.

difficult predicamen,. Even he, however,
tells them "lhey must do something for

well and very laudable. Unmixed good is
not, however, 10 be looked for in this world,
aud evil ohen happens OF this pecrocious de-
site 10 be making PROCESS. Particularly
is this tho case, when an Unbalanced coun-
