The IMMACULATE CONCEPTION OF THE BLESSED
VRGN.-We give our readers, this morning, as
highly appropriate to the day, two distinct ar
ticles on the subject Of the late decision by the
grand council of the Catholic hierarchy at
Rome. and the late proclamation by the Pope,
Of the immaculate conception of the Blessed
Virgin Mary. One Of these articles is from
the Freeman's Journa', the Amounted organ of
Archbishop Hughes, and is, therefore orthodox
gracious, loving, pious and acceptable The
other is from the Crusader, the special organ
in this city Of that arch.heretic Gavazzi, and a
Know Nothing volunteer; and is consequently
heretical impious, and revolutionary; and SO,
in the absence Of the Archbishop, we may ven
ture TO charge the faithful to beware Of II.
Outsiders are at liberty to read both articles.
and Judge for themselves Meantime, tue de-
cree has gone forth; the church win adopt
il throughout the world, ADD he that disbc-
lieves win be accursed. Read, and choose &C
sordiDgly.

SPEECH OF HENRY A. WIsE.-We publish
to-day report from one of our Virginia cor
respondents, Of q late electioneering speech of
Henry A. Wise in that State, against the Know
Nothipgs. The late Staunton Democratic Con-
vention, at the dictation of the Kitchen Cabinet
at Washington, were compelled to nominate
Mr.. Wise, we presume, on account of his
emphatic stand against the Know NothinQs
he appears to have been the only aspiring
democrat in the State who had the courage to
take this position. Hence he was nominated
and sent out against the Know Nothings, like
Don Quixotte upon his campaign against the
windmills. The speech we give to-day shows how
this democratic knights Of the Cabinet Is fighting
