The Albany Statesman, speaking in reference to
Fremont's Romanism, says that few days since
this question was submitted to Catholic priest in
Albany, who, without any hesitation, said it was
impossible that Fremont was not Catholic at the
time Of his marriage. He expressed the belief
that Father Van Horseigh would have cut his right
hand of, sooner than unite in matrimony two Pro-
testants it not to be thought of for an instant
And the Priest we refer to stated that there could
be no stronger evidence Of a mans Romanism than
that he was married to Protestant woman by
Catholic priest. There is not Catholic priest in
the country that will not say, unhestatngly, that
John G. Fremont is, or until recently was, Ro
man Catholic. They all know it, and SO declare
when approached on the subject. Nor do they
base their belief solely the fact of his marriage
They have knowledge on the subject that leaves
the question without contingency or shadow of
doubt.
