After this we hope to hear no more rail-
ing from the Union and American against
the American party as enemies to religious
liberty. The gross inconsistency which
such charge involves should bring blush
to its cheek whenever it hears the term
religious liberty. Out of its own mouth it
has been condemned on the very accusation
that it has brought against others. After
such an admission, it was useless to write
as it did on Friday-"We are not apollo
gists and defenders of the Roman Catho-
lie Church, and cannot be forced into such
aposition" The Catholic Church will think
Itself well rid of such defenders as would
prescribe its members purely on account OF
the enforcement and observance Of the spir-
itual DEGREES of its acknowledged head.

This is practical and positive step ana must
be followed BY a practical and positive So.u''o"'
There is no Indirect mode OF extricatiOn' TOT inc
alternatives presented are direct and formal Al
though the measure, abstraetly, would seem an
extreme one. it is not in point OF tact' ana neeo
involve no disturbing consequences between the
two Governments. Ii is settled IN diplomatic III
tercourse that one Government may ASK tho recau
of a residing Minister from another Government
without ASSIGNING the particular reasons, ana sun
maintain the most friendly relations The reserVa'
ton of that right is necessary, but II Is oh! eAer
cissd. usually, for personal considerations In tae
present case, il is well known that the PRESIDENT
in order to relieve any cause OF exception as 10
the nrompting motive of his requisition, has d.
rooted all the reasons to be ser out specifically,
while disclaming any purpose to interrupt AMIGA
BILE Intercourse. So, upon that ground, no pre-
tense of sound objection can be raised.
II is suggested that this demand may induce re-
taliation. in declining TO receive Mr.. Buchanans
successor. But doubt it. The practice OF friend
X nations has always been, in case Minister 10 DC
presented was not acceptable, to communicate the
causes of exception, and to indicate at the same
time readiness to receive some other. ANY other
course would imply hostility of intention and might
lead 10 serious embarrassments. The British "o'-
ernment is far too sensible to Indulge in such ex'
neriments. While this proceeding will not entire
IL excite surprise in England it may provoke tenn
norary ebullitOn Offeeling and will be seized upon
by the opposition to the Ministry as means OF pros
ecutino their warfare upon it. Lord Pamerston
hes been hard-pressed lately and any new element
Of strife NAV harass him TO the point Of defeat.
Tn the ordinary course of things, the correspond
ence relating to the enlistments, and including
these demands, would not be sent to Congress I'M
til Lord ClarendOns reply should be received here'
which may be expected next month But, mas
much As the stand has been taken and cannot be
recalled il is probable the President would inter-
pose no obstacle to the publication III call should
be properly made. Any delay now would be but a
courteous regard to opinion abroad, and these cerc'
monisJs at best are but the barren and empty cir
cumstapce Of Office. Besides, Gen. Pierce has in
auOurated new order of things, and with 1t
sbould come in the good era Of exploding aud ban
isbng all the mysterious mummerles OF diplomacy.
Nations should deal as upright men do and frankly
tell how much they will give or take. Surely, IN
tbe latter respect, we need not dread competition.

THE pEAD.LOCK AT ALBANY.

The same deadlock which has So long prevented
the organization Of the House Of Representatives at
Washington also prevents the organization OF the
Assembly at Albany. Some forty ballots for
Sneaker have been had in vain, the KDowNothings
casting about fOrty-fye votes, the Republicans
tbirty-five and the two Democratic" factOnsabOut
FORTY Every body must see that ii is perfectly out
of the question to expect any arrangement by
which the majority of the House can agree upon
candidate for Speaker
In this case what ought to be done To our
judgment the dictate Of duty is just as plain at AL
bany as it is at Washington. Since Speaker can
not be chosen and the House be organized for the
transaction of business under the working of the
majority principle, that principle should at once be
laid aside and the plurality rule adopted in its
stead. We care not 10 the benefit of which party
this measure would nure II the plurality rule
will result in the election Of a KnowNOthing
Speaker, so be it. it should none the less be
adopted than lit would result in the election of Re
publican to that office The first duty OF the Members
of the Assembly is to organize themselves so that
they can proceed to the proper business; and one
mode of doing il having failed, another should be
resOrted to. In 80 doing, no man need compromise
his principles, or vote for candidate who does not
represent them. The plurality rule being estab-
shed, each Member will still give his ballot for his
own fayorte; and if candidate is elected who is
ron agreeable to the majority of the House, there is
certainly very little danger of his committing any
great wrong while in the chair We urge, then, all
Members ofthc Assembly, with whom we may have
any influence to join in establishing the plurality
rule and putting an end to the present unhappy
condition of things.

the fact that Reading joined the forces Of this country

THE BRITISH ENLISTMENT DIFFICULTY
so vchemently denounced

From Our Own Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, Wednesday, Jan. Q, 1856.
The significant suggestions of the Presidents
Message, which The TRIBUNE interpreted SO
aptly have found practical yerfcation in the close
of prOtracted correspondence relating to the
British eulistments in the United States, which
dates back to March last, when the prosecutions
were first commenced for violations of the neu-
trality laws These negotiations have been pro-
longed. owing to the eyasiOns and subterfuges
adopted on the other side, in the hope of ultimate
~ avoiding the real issue by delay and by the intro
duction of other and less material questions. They
have failed in this experiment.; and so far from
gaining any advantage by the policy pursued, have
only determined the result more signally aud for
tilted the course of the Administration.
When this recruiting began and the completely
OF the British Minister and his subOrdinates was
established an effort was made to induce the Presi
dent to dismiss oil the parties concerned aud whom
his authority would reach without any hesitation.
But these counsels were disregarded most wisely
and the subject was deliberately and frankly
brought to the attention Of the British Government
in the hope that the proceedings would be properly
rebuked, and in the only manner which could al
ford sufficient satisfaction. Instead OF responding
TO the overture as it should have been met, attempts
were made TO dscredt the charges, to irnpeach the
testimony and to deny the agency. AT the outset
the Administration was not in possession OF all the
evidence adduced on the trials, or of other ntor-
nation which subsequently came to light and
equally eliminating These additional proofs drove
the British Government from some of its untenable
positions; but they were not well relnquished be-
fore others, quite feeble were taken and main'
tanned with show of adrOtness.
Recently, however, Lord Clarendon proposed
his final demonstration expecting to extinguish
the objections which had been raised, aud to re-
eve the extremity that seemed TO be impending.
In this expectation he has been disappointed. AT
ter careful and patient investigation of the subject
these retsry Of State advised against anyfurher dis
cussion, and recommended action instead OF words.
The President was satisfied, and accordingly gave
the necessary direction, requesting the British
Government to recall Mr. CHAMPION with the al
ternaiTe Of sending hi' passports IN case Of re-

THE SPEAKERSHIP.
of The N. Y. Tribune.

WASHINGTON, Friday, Jan. II, 1856.
In the House the whole day was wasted on a
proposition by Mr.. ZolicOffer, which had been de-
yised by the Southern Americans as the basis OF a
general catechising of candidates for Speaker on
every possible political question. 1t was adopted
and may lead to the waste of several more days.
In the meantime we are plainly approaching pu-
rality rule and result The opposition is visibly
softening and the urgency for organization steadily
increasing. Our friends are greatly dspirited by
the result of their all-night's session in the COM
pete backout of the Democracy from their chal-
lenge If Zollicoffers move should result in driv-
ing off a few votes from Banks il will hasten the
adoption Of the plurality rule. IL. C.
