FIGHTING OUR OWN CorNrRMEN.-Onew ould
think on reading some Of our New England Jour
nails, that there had been terrible fight in the
Grand Council Of Philadelphia, and that "back
bone" had been broken, and mended and stiffen.
ed, etc., ETC., with good deal other such trash.
We were about and around in Philadelphia
and We did not see or hear of any of this sort OF
work. For about week the North and South
were disagreeing about "negroes but this dis
agreement is an old story. The same kind of dis
agreement took place in Philadelphia in 1851
and there was something Of it there in 1776.
The fight" if that fight is likely to continue, as
long the country continues, and when that breaks
up will the wordy, windy eight" cease to exist,
and the fight with cutlasses, bayonets ETC., begin
just as they fight in Mexico, and in South America,
where blows succeed to words.
This prattle about backbone" is the merest
twattle in the world. Old Ben Franklin, Roger
Sherman Co., were accused and attacked in the
same way, in 1887, for putting into the Federal
Constitution the stpulations in behalf Of slavery.
They did the best they could to keep and to per.
petuate union Of the States and to do it, they
lost their backbones," and became slough
faces" Nevertheless, they have some fame vet
and will live even with their dough faces" and
without 'backbones. ~ Y. Express.

New OMSIBus.-We have frequently had occa.
sion to allude to the carriage establishment Of
Messrs. Fuford Brother, on jackson street, where
is manufactured every species Of vehicles from a
wheel-barrow to asplendid turn out Of "coach
and four" finished in the highest perfection, and
at prices equally as low as those imported from the
North. These enterprising gentlemen have lately
turned their attention to omnibus making and have
given an excellent sample Of what they can do in
that line, as the recently built for B. F. Holden
Of the Franklin House, clearly establishes. This
omnibus was planned and wholly constructed from
the stump, in this establishment. The iron work,
including the springs, is the work Of J. E. Twiggs
wood work by ]. NJ. Taylor; and the painting by
G. D. Bennings. As a whole, this omnibus is a
credit to the skill of our mechanics, and shows
conclusivey that there is nothing in the surround
ing atmosphere Of Thibodaux, which prevents as
good work from being done here as at the North,
or any other place.

PARISH REcoRDERs.-' Are we to have an
election for this officer at the ensuing general
election?" This question is frequently asked;
and as yet, judging from our country exchanges,
which have candidates announced for every
other parochial Office, no settled opinion seems
to have been formed Some persons suppose
that the election for Recorder takes place, while
others thinks that this officer forms an excep-
ton to the general rule. Neither the Constitu-
ton Of 40 or so make aIlusion to that officer
in direct terms 1t is only by inference that
We draw our deductions.
Article l47 declares that "the time of SER
vice Of all officers chosen by the people at the
first election under this constitution 1.-THE con-
stitution of '52, shall terminate rs though the
election had been holden on the first Monday
of November, 1851, and they had entered on
the discharge of their duties at the time desig-
mated therein" The election of Recorders
made in 1858, under the new constitution is
embraced by this article, and commencing to
hold their Offices from the first Mondoy of No
election in 1S53-four years will have elapsed
by the first Monday of November next. There
is no controlling clause in this new constitution;
for neither article 148 or 149 has any relation
to the matter under inquiry.
These suggestions are thrown out to direct
examination to this question and we do not see
how they can be gotten over.

RELIGION AND SrArE.-The following resolution
is one among those adopted at the great ratification
meeting in Baltimore:
Resolved, That the fundamental principle of the
American republic is the severance Of religion from
the power Of the State, and the exemption of the
State from the influence of religious sects that
any attempt to bring religious or sectarian in
Huences to bear on the State for the purpose of
procuring OF preventing the adoption or rejection
Of any measure, religious political, is dangerous
infraction Of the American principle inconsistent
with the neutrality Of the State between different
religious sects, and directly tending to disturb the
religious and political peace Of the country; that
the American party specially pledges itself to vim
dictate that principle from all infraction and to dis
countenance every person, Of any sect, who shall
participate m Or encourage its violation, for the at
tainment Of any object religious ar political

L1ouoR Law IN NEW YoRK.-Mayor Wood ha.
at length issued his proclamation to the people Of
New York and his Instructions to the police, in re.
ference to the liquor law. He says in effect that
his duties are simply executive and not judicial,
and he cannot therefore undertake to pronounce
upon law about which the ablest legal minds in
the State differ; but as soon as the Courts make
known to him his duty he will do it, and he sug-
gests that the law be tested with as little delay as
possible in the Courts. In the meanwhile the
police are directed not to seize foreign liquors. and
not to make voluntary seizures Or arrests in any
case where the ofense is made up both Of an act
and an intent. The ofenses mentioned in the first
section of the bil-the comprehensive section
are mainly, if not wholly, Of that character; SO
that for the present the law will be nearly nullity

A LARGE CHuRcH.-St. Paults Roman Catholic
Church at Pittsburgh was recently consecrated with
imposing ceremonies. The Cathedral which was
commenced four years ago, will be, when finished,
the most magnificent church building in this coun-
try. 1t is estimated that from 1000 to 5000 per-
sons Can be seated within its walls; and if neces-
sary, additional pews can be set up on the space
now left free for professions etc. Among the many
novel features introduced into this church is the in
vention of Bishop OConnor by which the seats
can be changed without the occupants being re-
quired to leave their pews, SO that the congrega-
ton can face either way.
