You, who have been so much in Amer

Americans are by far the best men in this
country. You know we'll their enterprise,
but even you will bo astonished at the
following piece Of statistical information:
at Balarat, according TO the census COM
mission. the population is 22, 200 Of whom
only GAO arc Americans. In order TO
drain the water from the deep sinkings,
and also to wash the stuff, there are seven
steam engines and machines; of these, four
belonged and were worked solely by Amer
leans. All the great contracts arc taken
by them; the lines Of stages to and from

---and law arc not--aro all Yankee the

DOUGLASS ON THE STUMP.-Senatot
Douglas addressed bis constituents, at Al
ton, III, on Wednesday, and we obtain from
the Courier brief synopsis Of his speech
The Courier Anti-Nebraska Democracy
says:
The speech contained much that we, in
common with every man present, wodld
heartily subscribe to. Sopl,istical, argu-
mentalive, false in several of its premises,
and necessarily wrong in the conclusions
arrived at. He started out by saying there
were but two parties in the countryside
Nebraska party on the one side, and its op-
ponents on the other; that the Nebraska
party was The national, constitutional par
iy Of the country, and the opposite party
was, of course, opposed to the constitution
and directly charged that any man of tho
opposite party would violate his oath who
would swear to support that constitution
This will be sad news 10 the anti-Nebraski
men, who compose tho largo majority o
the people Of Illinois.

wAs We expected, Tie Union reioiees
at the election in Maine as victory Of the
Administration party, "ably and effectual-
IL assisted by the national wings Of that
State, "ledby such men as Evans and as
Farley. Tie Union. however. forgets to
add that in this election all parties had to
declare themselves the uncompromising
opponents Of the Nebraska bill, its princi-
pies and consequences. Even the Demo-
cratic candidates did not dare to go before
the people wlthoutan explicit disclaimer
Of all sympathy or tolerance for that great
measure which distinguishes the reign Of
Mr.. Pierce;an ready as the Huhker wings
we're to fuse with the Hunker Democrats,
they had not the temerity so far to defy
the universal sentiment ofthe people as TO
breathe whisper of appreciation for that
measure or its authors. Does The Union
suppose that il the vote Of Mainc were ta-
ken tomorrow on the simple question Of
approving the Kansas Nebraska bill and
the proceedings had under it. Mr.. Pierce
would have evena respectable minority?
If it does, il will be likely to be undeceiv-
ed in 1856, when that question will be
brought up unencumbered by others Of n
merely local character. Y. Tri6une.

THE GOLDEN CLASP.
THE PERJURED GoLDsMry5r,
BY PROF. INGRAHAM.
PA II " I.

A modest and exceedingly pretty
young girl, plainly attircd, entered one
of the goldsmitb's stores on --- ST.,
and seeing that q gentleman was en-
gagged with the proprietor, she timidly
shrunk aside near the door until he
should be at leisure. The assistants
were also occupied with customers
whose dress and appearance showed
them to belong to the class of the rich,
and SO she was suffered to remain for
some time, standing there, before she
could be attended to. The gentleman
who was fine, noble looking person.
with q remarkably polished address,
seeing her waiting, courtcously stood
aside, and said to the goldsmith
Do not occupy yourself with me now,
Mr.. Broochord, ] can examine these
watches by myself, While you sec what
this young lady wants who has been
waiting here so long and patiently to
get an opportunity to speak to YOU
What do you wish, Miss Z? asked

voyod rcproof to her for interrupt

LIFE UNCERTAIN.

On one occasion the late Rev. w.
Bluntrequested alady whom he. o.thought
qualified, to undertake some charge in
district visiting, or some kindred en-
gagoment. She answered him, rather
declining the proposal, "My stay here
will probably be too short for me to be
of any use. | do not know that L shall
be here three months" His answer
was brief, calm, and solemn. "I do
not know that shall be here one. -.
He alluded to his time and life in this
present world. She saw his meaning,
answered no more, and heartily en-
braced the work offered her to do. In
Gods sight, time has in reality no rem
nants, no shreds, no patches to be
thrown away; and the habit of speedy
andready application of our faculties is
one of the most important acquisitions
which can possibly be formed.

Chandler not orthodox, hence Repu-
dated by the Knowing Ones

CHANDLER AND THE Boston PILoT.
Tile TEMPORAL Subordinate to the
SPIRITUAL 1t will be recollected that
Hon. Joseph r. Chandler delivered
speech during last winter, in the House
of Representatives., in defence of the
doctrines Of the Roman Catholic church
wherein he endeavorcd to show that
I, Catholics owed no allegiance to the
Pope paramount to, or in conflict with,
the Constitution of the United States.
The Boston Pilot, Roman Catholic
paper, in a recent article, declares that
Mr.. Chandler is not only incompetent
to defend the Church, but ignorant of
its doctrines and dogmas.
The Pilot thinks that Mr.. Chand-
ler's efforts did the Church more harm
than good; that DR.. +. McClintock, q
Protestant minister, who reviewed Mr..
Chandler's speech, gets the better of
the latter gentleman in the argument;
that one of the penalties which the
church militant has to suffer, is Gin con-
sequence of having children to insist
upon defending her, not in her own
way, but ia their own peculiar fashion,
pairing down Catholicity so as to make
1T suit Protestant tastes;' that "the
aaoeight Of Catholicity is decidedly a.
gainst the explainers-away Of the Ro-
man Catholic doctrine with reference
to the relation between the spiritual &
temporal. The article to which we al
lude closes thus:
"They (thc expiaincrs-away) know
very well that, when we try to modify
our doctrines to suit what we suppose
to be their tastes, we are acting part
through which they Protestants) can
see with the utmost ease. Our part is
the true straight forward one. 1t is,
to state our doctrine boldly and fairly,
and to try to be thorough Catholics in
every sense of the word, to prove by
our daily actions, that Catholicity is
the only sure pillar State can posi-
bly, have in these days. Brownson en-
teB here into clear and most conclu-
sive argument to prove that this is the
very ground whichw we should take with
Americans, as with all others; that A.
mericans are, by their genius and his.
torical antecedents, eminently fitted to
appreciate and to embrace "Ultramon-
tame doctrine;" that no other doctrine
will suit them, and that if the conver.
sion of this country is ever to be ac.
complished, that event will be due, in a
great measure, and under God, to a
full, fair, clear and bold, persistence in
the enunciation of the doctrine that
the temporal is subordinate to the spir.
itual."

AMorHnR FACT!
Rclative Intelligence Of the Native and
Foreign Population.

From the American Organ" we
copy the following article, and invite
the reader candidly to peruse it and re-
fleet upon it's uncontrovertible truths:
"Now that we have fully considered
foreign pauperism, crime and political
influence, and instituted comparison
between the foreign and native popula-
tion, it is but just that we should pur-
sue this course Of investigation, and
compare the two species of population
intellectually. Wehave shownby facts
incontroyertible, the comparative free
dom of the native population from
paupertsm and crime, and now pro-
pose to show from facts, collected from
De Bows compendium of the 7th cen
sus, the comparative educational supe-
riority Of the native over the foreign
population.
The native white population of the
United States is 17,312,4S7 |; of these
4.55 per cent. are meducated, or one
in every 20 natives; tho foreign pop
ulation is 2,260,581; of these 8.71
per cent are uneducated or l in II !;
thus it is readily perceived that the ra-
ito of illiterate or uneducated among
the foreign is nearly twice as great as
among the native. The accompanying
table exhibits these facts:
