A STRIKING CONFIRMATION OF SCRIPruRE.-One
of the most interesting of the monuments of an
cient Rome, is the triumphal arch erected TO
commemorate the conquest of Jerusalem by tt
tus, who after the destruction of the temple,
made triumphant march to Rome, bringing
with him long train of captive Jews, and the
spoils, among which were the sacred vessels Of
the temple. This procession is represented in
the sculptures on the beautiful arch, which thus
furnish an illustration of the Bible no where
else to be found, these being the only represen-
tations that exist of the sacred vessels the table
of the shew-bread. the golden candlestick with
its seven branches, and the silver trumpets used
by the priests to proclaim the year ofjubilee.-
The Roman Senate and people little thought
when they erected this monument to defed
emperor, that they were erecting monument
to the true God, in the verifcation of prophecy
and divine history, A recent traveller says, not
one of the Jews of Rome. of whom there are
about 5000 will even at this day pass under
the arch of Titus, although it spans one of the
thoroughfares of the city; they shun il as a me
mortal of the subjugation of their nation. which
has never been retrieved, and regard 1t with
aversion.

MURDER AND ROBBERY ON THE PLAINs.--On
Thursday of last week, man by the name OF
Paul Morely arrived in Placerville, says the
american, from off the Plains in very destitute
condition. Mr.. Morely left Salt Lake with some
fifteen companions, who with him furnished
teams, and were near the Sink of the Humboldt
on the 18th Oct, when during the night, they
were attacked by large band of Indians, head
ed by two white men. They resisted to the best
advantage Two of their companions were kill
ed during the night, and after daylight, two
more. The others then fled. Mr. More
ly was driving team, and when the say
ages got all the party had besides, they. took
the team he was in charge of, stripped him en-
tirely naked and permitted him to proceed
Mr.. M. travelled in this condition some four days
without food-he finally obtained some clothing
but no shoes-when he arrived at the trading
post of Mr.. Black. Other emigrants have also
suffered.

RUssrA.-The st. Petersburg correspondence
of the London Post says:
ga Joint stock company has just been formed
at st. Petersburg, under something more than
government patronage; for the greater part of
the shares have already been taken by various
members of the Imperial family, and by some of
the more ancient and powerful Russian nobility.
Twenty commercial screw steamers of the lar
gest class, are to be built in the first instance.
Some of them will be constructed in America,
some in England, and few in the Gulf of Fin
land"
The discovery of coal, of most excellent
quality, In the Ural Mountains, in Russia, is
confirmed beyond doubt.

Central American combinations.

A correspondent of the San Francisco Herald,
writing from Granada, says:
The hostile relations existing between Nlcar-
aqua, and the adjacent Governments have pre-
sented continually q threatening aspect since
the rash invasion and humiliating exodus OF the
Costa Rican army. The abdcation and fight
of President Rivas tended to aggravate the dis
order of the country, and to menace 1t with vio-
lent civil and political eruptions. The unwar-
rantable treachery OF the chief officer of the
Government and majority of the ministers OF
State, and the capture and execution of Sal
azar, the master spirit of the reasonable fac
tionists were such proofs of crime and retribu-
ton az could not fail to provoke the mutual an
imosity Of the betrayer and betrayed, and in
spire an eager emulation for retaliatory recon-
pense. The Ncaraguan traitors, with charac-
teristic ingratitude, arrnying themselves against
their American allies and benefactors, wooed
the sympathy and substantial aid OF the neigh
boring States of Central America, with the per-
fidious design of expelling from the country
those whom their necessities required; the mai
contents and conspirators succeeded in effecting
an offensive and defensive league with Guate-
mala and San Salvador, and contribution of
forces was levied from each of those States to
unite in waging an exterminating war against
the Americans in Nicaragua. That the despot-
ic government of Carrera should have affiliated
with the PROJECT OF opposing the CROWN ana
prosperity of liberal institutions is compatible
with all its antecedent history, but that San
Salvador the centre of liberalism, the first al
ways in Central American reform, and years
ago ambitious of annexing its fortunes and iden-
tifying its fame with the great Republic OF the
North, should cooperate i'll war SO wholly OPP
posite and repugnant to all its former aspira-
tions, is strange and inexplicablc. The fact
however, exists, and San Salvador, uniting with
Guatemala, its hereditary foe, has precipitated
war with the Patriot party of Nicaragua, its
hereditary friends and allies. The negotiations
of the Rivas conspiracy faction, resulted in the
forced levy of thousand troops from Guate-
mala, four hundred from San Salvador, to
which was added six hundred from Leon-the
headquarters of the conspTators- few
hundred Legitimatists or Chamorristas from the
different towns and haciendas of Nicaragua.

American union. [volume] (Morgantown, Va. [W. Va.]) 1855-1859, 1856-11-22

The era of sectionalism is definitely in
augurated. Neither the long service
of Lewis Cass, the jealous energy of
Stephen A. Douglass, the presidential
prestige of Franklin Pierce, or the
ability of Rufus Choate could turn the
North from its course, nor could the
statcsmanlike qualities, the accepted
patriotism or unsullied name of Millard
Fillmore turn the South from it's ad-
verso position. Both parties rushed
blindly on into sectional strife of which
we have yet only seen tho beginning.
The child is not born who may sec it's
ending. 1t is not our purpose to say
which is right, or which is wrong. We
consider the whole wrong, from the be
ginning, and that dates from the repeal
of the Missouri Compromise. That
repeal was not effected by the will of
the majority of either section, but by
the will of designing individuals in
high places, most of whom have already
met their condemnation at the hands of
their constituents.
The agitation having commenced,
reason is impotent to allay it. 1t is
one of those unmanagcable questions of
pride, which as in the ducllo, nothing
but force in some shape can decide
We know that the South claims to stand
upon its constitutional rights alone, but
the North claims the same, and the
difficulty is to determine who is to be
umpire. Taking tho "voice of the
people as the voice of God" the decis-
ion would be in favor of the Northern
and more liberal construction, for they
have undeniably the numerical,maiori-
ty. But would the South submit to
such an umpire? Time and again they
have said they would not. There is
the difficulty, and the next Presidential
election will bring it up with appalling
vividness. Then there will be no MIL
LARD FILLMORE in the field to break
tho force of sectionalism; no third
party to decide the election,i in favor of
the weaker; but in serricd lines, two
opposing sections will stand, face to
face, and foot to foot, and the weaker
must 60 to the wall, unless moderation
unprecedented prevails and patriotism,
such as no other political canvass has
ever educed, wards off the violence OF
the onset.

CATHOLICISM IN IRELAND.

A correspondent of the Philadelphia
North American says:
1t is no secret. The Roman Catho-
lie church expects to have Ireland, and
in the course Of time, England and
Scotland, too, nationally in commun-
ion with Rome. The protcstants are
full of hope, that Ireland will be equal
ly Protestant with England and Scot
land. Without guessing at the proba-
bilitics, it cannot but interest Ameri-
cans to see the grounds for these op-
posite expectations, as given forth by
the press on one side and the other.
Great numbers in England of clcr-
gymen and others, men Of learning and
talent and wisdom, have entered the
Church of Rome, Of late; many at i'm
mense sacrifices. Besides these, not q
few of rank; and the same, but not so
many in Scotland. Through the influ-
ence Of these, multitudes of the unedu-
Gated have followed them; and now, in
all parts Of England and Scotland, are
many Irish who, under Irish priests,
act as missionaries among the masses,
utterly neglected, who have no religion
so that chapels and converts and nun
nerics are found where a year or two
ago there was not Romanist. Why
should it not 60 on? It's not unlikely
that Archdeacon Dcnnison will carry
off more, and they will spread the de-
fection.
This is the calculation of one set of
writer's; and they add that, but for the
Irish church establishment, Protestan-
tism--neycr strong in the affections of
the people, on the contrary identified
with conquest and opprcssion--would
not now have resting place in Ire
land. Now this establishment is doo-
med; for the English Voluntarics, head
ed by Mr.. Mail, make common cause
with the Irish Romanists, and its inn
pending destruction is accelerated by
the fanaticism Of the Evangelicals who
are mastering all their forces to abolish
the Manooth endowment, a catastro-
phe which D'Israeli and tho wiser con-
servatives would avert by letting May
nooth alone.
But, against these roasonings and
speculations, the earnest Protestants
put forth facts: that the Roman Cath
olic population was dccimatcd by the
famine, and the emigration that fol-
lowed and is still going on, and there
with q total change was produced, in
many parts, in the constitution Of So
ciety. The lands have passed from
the old embarrassed proprictors to new
and improving men, who have oncour-
aged the immigration Of substantial
Protestant farmers. Along with these
some thirty or forty thousand Roman
Catholics, who have embraced tho re
formation, are scattered over these re-
gions whore there we're no Protcstonts.
