Jones considered. He evidently thought
that publishers got up their papers for mere
amusement, or to please their friends. But
he wanted the paper, SO he "forked over"
When told that he should subscribe, he re-
piled thathe took tho "Weekly Tribune"

We told him that it was the best policy to
encourage home interests first; but he
thought "t'other way was cheaper" Now
Jones is rather an intelligent man. He
knows what is straRspiring about New York,
and the condition of the Allies before Sc

PRESCRIBING A WoMAN.-Mrs. Miller,
(widow of Mahlon Miller, deceased Of
Northampton township, Bucks county, Pa,
who has had charge of the Post Office since
her husbands death, was removed few
weeks since, by the jesuit Postmaster Gen.
eral, to the astonishment and against the
wishes of the whole community. The rea
son alleged for his prescription of pool
widow woman, is that her son publicly ad
vocated Know Nothingism! Proscriptive
Jesuitism does not even spare WON an
whose son has the manliness to avow Amer
lean sentiments! The removal of Mrs
Miller caused great excitement in the COM
munity, and the outrage was denounced il
unmeasured terms by men of all parties.
Place few more JeSuits like James Camp
bell in power in this country, and there
would soon be "war to the knife" against
all American Protestants. The work Of
decapitation is going on rapidly, and in O
short time there will not be single Amer.
ican in office under the Jeelit dynasty. All
the Post Offices in the land will be filed with

ROMAN CATHOLIC PRosoRIpTIoN.-A
few days since we announced the removal
of two Democratic Postmasters from office,
by the Jesuit head of the department,
James Campbell. Removed because they
were suspected of being members of an

learned that the Democratic Postmaster
at Bath, Morgan county, Virginia, who is
supposed to be tainted with the heresy Of
Americanism, has been informed by Mr..
Campbell that If he does not withdraw
from the Order he will be removed! OF

The National Intelligencer, speaking of
the impressive address of Judge Mitchell,
on the occasion Of pronouncing sentence
on DR.. Graham, thus moralizes. We trust
the wise reflections will be heeded:-
"When we consider tho domestic misery,
widespread social evils, and shocking
crimes caused by intemperance, with the
accounts of which the public journals daily
TEEN, it is not to be wondered at that
philanthropic and religious men, should
make uncomprising war upon the evil, and
even by the most stringent and extreme
laws seek to abate the besetting mischief.
In regard to the sad case before us, if any
thing could induce the drinking man,
whose senses leave him when under the
influence Of the Intoxicating draught, to
pause and reflect on the consequences we
think, the melancholy fate of DR.. Graham
would have such an effect. Here are two
interesting families plunged into the deep
est wo by the rash act of a drunken man.
DR.. Graham, acknowledged by all who
know him, to be kind, amiable, and chival,
rous, does that when excited by liuuor
which he would give worlds to have undone
in an hour, perhapsa minute afterwards,
If, too, he were the only sufferer, he could
doubtless hear the consequences to himself
with comparative fOrtitude; but, besides
inaicting enduring misery upon the fam.
lily of his victim, making disconsolatc

fore a happy wife, he consigns the partner

world to the innocent family of the often.
der, and Furnishes them with an intensity
which time itself can scarcely assuoge-
certainly not eradicate. The time is
approaching when drunkenness must be
viewed as no extenuation Of crime, but an
aggravation of the offence which may be
its sad consequence"
