DISAGREEMENT AMONG THE ALLIEs.-An Eng
lish writer says: There is bad news. from the
camp in the East Not about the cholera-that
will come hidcouslv in bad time. But read the
letters from the French officers (names carefully
conceaIed) in the Independence Beige, which by
the by is the best conducted journa! in Europe,
and you Gun infer as to the bad spirit prevailing
between the cordial allies-the French blaminng
English inertness for the past fainres-and the
English, with more regard to facts, ascribing the
long action to two incompetent Generals, Raglan
and Canrobcrt. But the feeling between the
English and the Sardnians is the worst. Mr.
Russell, the correspondent of the Times started
the joke that the Piedmontese We're 'Sardlnes
cased in English tin,' the whole British army
took it up; and there are too many Interpreters
about to allow US to doubt that the malicious mot
would reach the fiery and proud Italians"

n1nN1zAT1oN OF KANSAS.

The Rev. Mr.. Starr delivered lecture IN
New York last week, upon the subject OF the
Colonization of Kansas. He was somewhat
severe upon the Bostonians for The loud preten.
lions made respecting the funds to be raised
and the men to be sent to people Kansas Terri
tory: and in connection with his remarks there.
upon, gave some rather happy delineations OF
local characteristics:
1.-THE instant the Kansas Nebraska bill passed
last year, we had great demonstration made
at Boston, and they said were going to raise
capital of S5,0O0,0O0 to send 10000 men OF
crit and pluck to Kansas. don't know what
has become of the S5,OO0,OO0. But when they
talked about S5,OO0,OOe and 10000 men, that
sounded large to the people In the State OF
Missouri, which is slave State, and men who
didn't want to have their property depreciate 70
per cent. or so in the course of n couple OF
years, took alarm at all this big talk-which, by
the way, didn't mean anything-was nothing
but gas. That kind of talk led the State of
Missouri to say: aWho's going to take that
Kansas? If they've got S5,o00,00O we've got
S5O,0OO,O00 There's one thing at any rate we
can dove can out bully them and out fight
them" For they all have the idea that one
Southern man can whip fifteen Northerns. l
nave lEIGNuo LucEC WIN hoEO Juoe ehhS iNSo, e''"o
Nortberner can't fight, don't know how to
fight, hasn't got any blood in him to fight, and
that one Southerner is equal to fifteen North
ernors at any time in any thing.
People at the North all the while talk about
Southern chivalry as though there was not any
there; they think that when they come to talk
right up 10 Southerner he will come down.
At the South they say the Northerners do moth.
: ing but gas all the while. Now, to my mind
they are both badly mistaken. In the South
there is an utter recklessuess about which we
know nothing at the North; they are aiway:
ready to fight at the drop of hat They hae
Just as lief die about sixpence as about mil
lion of dollars when their blood is up. Here a
the North are of different temperament lr
the South, tell a man he lies and say, 81 wan
an apology or I'll Kill you," and he is taught te
keep excited until be will kill you. Here at the
North, tell a man he lies and he is very mucf
obliged to you, but until you prove It, is merely
nm assertion. I suppose men North can fgh
inst as well as men South, but when the Nortf
think the South have got no pluck they are JUS
as badly mistaken. The Northerner fights from
feeling of duty, the Southerner from excite
ment.

SINGULAR CotNcIDEEcE.-The Romney lVa.)
Inteligencer, speaking of the murder OF Orndorft
by Mcdonald few weeks ago, IN hampshire
county, relates strange coincidence. Mcdonald
was robbing Lockmiller's house when. Orndortt
came UP, and he shot him for fear of being de-
tected. Fifty years ago McDonald's grandfather
near the identical spot, was robbing the house
of Mr.. Lupton, when LIS three little children
came upon him, and for fear of detection, he
murdered, as he supposed, all of them, but for
tunately one lived to testify against him, and he
was hung.

TIRE pREacEER.-NoRTH AND SOUTH.

We take the following from the Southern
Christian Advocate Of the present weeK-tle
weekly organ: in this city of the nj. T.. Churea'
commencing its nineteenth volume:
as il True a-We have seen the statement IN
several paters, that when it was made known IN
The New England Conference, in session ut
CheIsea, near Boston, that the Massachusetts
House Of Representatives had voted for the re-
moval of Judge Lorfng, because he acted as
limited States Commissioner in the rendition OF
the fnpitiye slave Burns, the Conference rose
and gave three cheers, We passed the state
ment by as matter two shameful for credence,
but we now see it stated as a fact by the Boston
correspondent of the Congregational Journal.
Can Il be so? Has Methodism anywhere, even
where it has become synonymous with fanatl'
cism of the widest type, so tar degeneratea, as
to glory over the unmerlted disgrace Oh ui'.l'
because he has kept his oath, and been L,ue 10
the laws and constitution OF his country -
From the same paper we extract tne aoi'o"ns
ming, at Bethel Church, by the Rev. W: H. hll''

Bethel Church, before the most crowded house
we have seen in Charleston, vindlcate most no.

tpreacher, laboring among the Plantations, ana
for the religious welfare of the slave popula-
tion"
Such is the difference. The NJ. E. Church
North, not satisfied with the session which re:
lieyed them from the intolerable burthen of the
episcopal services of such. men as Andrew, Ca
pers, and Pierce, are still prosecuting the negro,
and prostitutng the functions Of the ministry
into an auxiliary Of political fanaticism and agl-
tation.
The M. E. Church South. finds work enough
for its ministry in preaching to the negroes the
gospel, as entrusted TO them, seeking neither 10
amend that gospel, or to force the negro into a
position for which God has not qualified him In
his providence. Of the three thousand and fifty
clerical signers Of the famous Nebraska petition,
how many ever studied the negros wants and
qualities by the hillside or in the negro chapel

RICHMOND VA April 10. S,.,


Dcar Slr:-lhc letter which You have addressed to
me, contains three questions, 10 which you ask an
answer, with II view I" pubcnticu
First Question. 'WE"ti."; the Catholics N Virgil
mia do acknowledge any temporal allegiance I" the
l'npv"
70 this | answer, thai, uules5 there he in Virginia

porhl prince, because they born in III. Stht"S,
aud are not naturaAcd citizens of this country there
are no Catholics in Nrgni,>who owe or acknowledge
any temporal allegiance I" Aic Pope.
Sccoud Question. Whcther il this country could
be and assaulted nnd nyadcd by the nrlny of the
Pope, (f he had one" or br any other taih"c :.nw-
cr the Catholic CIiizcn- ui thus cGNniry NJ matter
where born, wonld ut IT,, g9 mach hound To defend
the F.E at ,mtrICa, her rights aud liberty, na any
native barn citizens would b-r'
Answer: 10 ne, the hypothesis Of mn invasion oi
our country bv the Pope, seems an nbsurdlty: but
should he come with armies establish temporal do
mninu here, or should ANY other Catholic power
make such an attempt, II l. my conviction that all
Catholic cillIcns, no matter where born, who ENJOY
the benefits and iranchi,. ut th, CnpstitutInn would
be conscicmtiousy bound, like uaiivcb"rn citizens,
to defend the ag, rights and liberties al the republic
md rupul such INVASION.
Third Question. "Whc;hcr the performance OF that
duty would conflict with any "nl or v"w "r other
obligation nf the Cathnliri'
Answer: Catholics, reared in the Church as SUCH
hnre not the cuetnn "i taking any ontls or Vows cN
cept the baptismal VOWS 'tn rcnouncr the Devil. his
works and pomps.' Persons converted IT, IA, iai'h
or those receiving degrees in ILeGogy, may hc re-
CURED to take lhe Gth contained III the creed o
Plus ". OF 0beerce 70 t.r Pope, which n iar as
know nus always been understood and interpreted In
signify spiritual obedience TO him Us hcnd OF the
Church, aud not obedience 10 him as temporal
prince Bishops, on their c"nsccra,ion also take an
outh which, in country, Is dfereG, ir'.m the "l'
form used in Europe. Hat ione OF these VOWS, oahs
and NC other obligation OF which am aware, conflicts
with the duty of citizen of the United States to de-
fond the flnC and liberties OF his country.
In cnnclusion allow 10 STATE tllal a. We nave
no article Of faith Touching that the Pope "t divine
right, enjoys temporal powcr head OF the Church.
whatever some theoogians ur writers may have SAID
on this poiut, must like my 10 your inquiries
DO considered as opinions for which the writers them
| selves only can be- held responsible.
Yours, very truly, &c.
