The recent decision Of Judge Rodgers and all
the excuses which venal press has seized upon
to excite prejudice against our natve-born citizens
relate entirely to events which grew out Of these
foreign massacres With the excitement occa-
stoned by these astounding outrages with tho
scenes that followed; the burning OF armed fort
resses; the too hasty sacrifice of human life by
military leaders in queng excitement which
themselves had created with the attempt to
avenge the blood of massacred citizens, the stri-
king back of those who had been fatally struck,
with these the natural result of unprovoked, mer-
ciless outrage upon unoffending Americans, we
have nothing to do here. We are confined to
the single question upon which the whole mat.
ter rests, the single object Of exposing the Popsh
origin and cause of all those appalling scenes;
and this we have thoroughly accomplished. We
have presented the law, the testimony and the
facts which place the deep guilt where it belongs,
showing how thoroughly and entirely it all rests
upon the foreign serk controlled and organized hy
their Jesuit leaders.
FELLOW COUNTRYMEN.
We have filed up the space allotted to this sub
ject yet have not reached the mass of powerful
testimony before US. We are not able to add the le
gal testimony Of near one hundred witnesses in
courts of Justice; the powerful address of the Hon.
Lewis @. Levin, the eloquent appeal Of General
Smith, the plain but convincing statement of Mr..
Kramer, all eye-witnesses Of the massacre; nor
the masterly review Of evidence by the venerable
Counsellor Peter A. Browne, Esq, the indignant
rebuke Of the American Advocate, or the over
whelming argument Of Dr. Coates. These arc all so

SchnnIain Michigan.

Michigan is one of the few States of the
West, in which the munifcent grant of lands
by Congress for educational purposes, has been
made the most Of In several, this grant has
been .quandered, in greater or less degree, and
rendered quite ineffective for the purposes de-
signed. But in Michigan it has been well hus-
banded, and already glorious results are the
fruit. She has an elaborate State University,
with twenty-five Professors, and with over
four hundred students, all receiving free edu
cation. Stately edifces, for Union School pur-
poses, have been erected in almost every viii
lage of one thousand inhabitants. Ann Arbor
has such an one, which cost $27, GOO. Niles has
one which cost S25 600, and Kalamazoo. Bat

The BaffsIo Commercial Adcertiser of Mon
day 15th inst, has details of the great gale
which occurred there Sunday, and which it
represents as the heaviest blow, and the one
bringing the highest water of any experiene ed
for twelve years. Among the particulars Of
the damage to property, it is stated that two
church steeples were blown down, very large
number of buildings unroofed, nine houses
blown down, and very large number Of Chin
MES levelled. Considerable injury was done to
the shipping ia the harbor, but this damage
was not so heavy as might have been expected.
On the track of the Niagara Falls Railroad,
the sea made clean breach for a quarter of
mile. In all this space the track is washed
out and sunken in some places to q depth of
ten or twelve feet. We clip the following
items from the Adrertiser's account
Chimnies suffered immensely, and some
body's tin roof lay in West Eagle street. Own,
er requested to call and claim bis property.
The best illustration of the force of the wind
is to be seen on the Terrace, near Church
street. a plank sidewalk, six feet wide, of
three inch plank spiked down to cross pieces,
was lifted up bodily from the ground, high
enough to sweep the lantern from amp-post.
To do this, it must have risen six or eight feet
perpendicnlarly.
A church on Maple street had its windows
blown in during service, one of them striking
and slightly injuring the preacher.
All the lowlands were under water; the
highest point reached was about nine feet
above the usual level of the lake.
We Cannot close our chapter of accidents
without a brief allnsion to the utter failure of
all whale-bone structures during this blow.
Umbrellas went wrong side out in a most pro-
voking manner, and so did crinoline. Some of
the ladies on the street, so far as information
extends, went up, Qke angels as they are,) bnt
some of them presented the appearance OF an
umbrella turned wrong side oat, with two
stout handles instead of the usual slender stick.

Heavy STEAMBOAT ROBBERY.-The steamer
Star of the West, advertised TO depart for St.
Louis on Saturday evening, delayed her de-
parture to yesterday morning. Some time
during the night some rsscsls on board levied
contributions upon the sleeping passengers to
the extent of about nine thousand dollars.
Those who suffered most were returned Cali
fornians, who had their treasure in coin and
dnst; some of them had not a picayune left
The thieves entered the rooms by burglariOus
means. and left their tools IN one of them; and
from the manner in which some of the sleeps
ers had their treasure removed from their per-
SONS, it is more than probable that chlorotorm
was used upon them. One of the passengers
found his pocket. book hid under the table,
cloth in the cabin, with all bis valuable papers
and checks, amounting to $4,000, still in il,
the cash only having been taken. The rob
berry was the most daring and adroit Of the
season, the robbers having got off with the
treasure, and without leaving any clue to their
discovery. The steamer got off tor st. Louis
Yesterday morning. Whether the unfortunate
victims of the robbery remained on board or
not we did not learn. We cannot conceive
Of anything so disheartening and distressing
as it must be for man TO go to California,
toll for enough gold to buy him house and
lot or a farm, start for home in flush of eas
ger anticipation, and get robbed of every cent
on the way 1t is dreadful-dreadful.-N o.

Correspondence Of the Pennsylvania DENY

WASHINGTON, Dec. IA, 1856.
have carefully abstained from entering in
to speculatiuns on the subject of the Cabinet
in my correspondence with the PenRSy lean
ian, but really if you were 10 Washington
yourself, and cOnld see the arrangements go.
ing on among some of the politicians on this
subject, you would smile.
Men are put up aud pulled down for the
Cabinet, Just as if Mr.. Buchanan had no hand
in selecting bis own constitutional advisers;
and what is more amusing than all, is the
learned mystery which some assume who are
anxious to create the impression that they
alone understand what is going on. The real,
strong common sense men Of the House aud
Senate have full confidence in the patriotism
and experience of Mr. Buchanan, and do not
for moment doubt his perfect ability to Sc
lect his own Cabinet officers.
1t is stated that the Hon. Caleb Gushing in
tends remaining in Washington after the close
Of the present administration, to practice at
the profession of the law.
The vote in the Savannah, or Southern Com
mercial Convention, Of three States, in favor
of reviving the slave trade, is much common
ted upon here, and / am within bounds when
say there is scarcely TO be found in the City
Of Washington, any man from the South or
NoTID, VINO Is hOl surprised ana iDoTuueu JhaI
any State should have thrown its vote in ia
vor of the revival of this scandalous, inhuman
and bsrbarous traffic.
There is DO reason, no justice in the idea Of
the slave trade, and therefore it is deeply to
be regretted that any individual, much less q
State Of this Union, should commit the error
of recording vote in favor of it. AS the
Richmond Enquirer very ably and powerful
ly said, the judgment Of Christendom, the
whole moral and religious sentiment of this
country and the world, is against q revival of
the slave trade, and the attempt to bring it
about is much more worthy of some savage
region than Of civilized community.

The debate in the House on Thursday last
between Col. Marshall aud q detachment OF

administration more than can describe. Col.
Marshall is indispuIably the R5lest man and

his irresistible charge upon the aggressive wing
Of the Democracy is felt 10 be the severest re-
buke upon Gen. Pierce and bis policy. What
is quite noticeable is that the Buchanan Demo
