WAR not on Religion.


There never was better adviee,-never ad
vice better to be followed, but its value
depends in q good degree upon what it means
The American Party is daily, nay, hourly
accused OF making war upon The Roman
Catholic religion, or the Catholic religion
for in the United States of America, there
should be no Roman religion. Rome was not
the birth place of Christianity. Rome has no
title % be the mistress of the Chrisiain world.
Hence, any religion that claims 10 have its head
in Rome, starts in America on foreign ground,
and j., therefore, 70 be watched, only because
of the pretenee on which il starts. And any
religion that sets upon Tor man or men IN
Rome, an authority, spiritual or temporal.
over the Quilted states OF American, estab-
fishes the 8laR-power, or men power Of Rome,
in these United States. A Pope, a thraue
Cardinals, are not essential 20 religion. The
saviour was burn in amsnger, aud the repuied
Roman head OF the Church was but Usher

RSg- On Monday night a bill authorizing
grand juries to send for witnesses in case
of disturbance of public worship, and in
cases where they suspect a violation of the
law regulating the sale of spiri,uous and
vinous liquors, came up, and after some
discussion, passed on its third reading,
by vote of 80 to %. A motion was
made to reconsider this vote, aud immed-
ately an unsuccessful attempt was made to
adjourn. The reconsideration was ordered
and while the roll was being called, some
Eve or six members stepped outside of the
bar, thus reducing the House below quo
rum. After a good deal of parleying-
several motions to adjourn having been
made in the mean time, which were ruled
ont Of order--the retiring members return
ed within the bar, but persisted, for some
time, in refusing to vote when their names
were called. Finally, one or two of them
voted, and thus ended the contest, the
House refusing to reconsider, the vote be-
ing ayes 10, noes SO.
The reason assigned by those who with
drew, for their course, was that the House
was not full, aud they felt unwilling that a
bill comforting upon grand juries inquisi-
torial power, should pass unless by full
House.

La We are so struck with admiration
at the frank and explicit answers which
our remarks of Monday elected from our
neighbor of the Union and Anerican, that
we will not rufie his remarkably placid
temper with any more questions on the
same subject. He positively denies all
knowledge Of, or completely liz, organizing
such an association as we we're induced,
from surrounding circumstances, to think
he was priyy to, and we are, perforce, com
PEELED to believe him. We win not, how
ever, as he requests us to do, ferret out in
his party any Of its misdeeds or short com
ings at which he may launch the thunders
Of his wrath. We decline being party in
furnishing his insatiate nav with ragont
so tempting. And we do so more in con
sideration for his comfort than for any 9th
or reason. The late attempt of that paper
to correct what it esteemed abuses in its
party, involved it in a most pitiable pickle,
and 1t would little short OF inhuman IN
us to render it liable to a similar misfortune
again.
That hint neighbor, about missing GER
tain private letters about the same time
that you did the ritual was most ungen-
erous fling at the kind friend who furnished
us the latter. We hope you are only jok-
ing. To make such charge in earnest
would be untrue to your native impulses,
which we well know are the very soul of
generosity and brotherly kindness. As to
returning the book, that we couldn't think
of doing. AS to how it came into our
possession we thought we gave you full in
formation on Monday. If you desire to
inquire more minutey, just drop into our
sanctum, and we will be most happy to ac-
commodate you You might avail yourself
of that occasion to give US private lee
ture about horrible oaths," which would
dc more to convince us of orr error, than
all the rampant denunciaton you could
indite % twelve-month.

yesterday, as one of the Editors Of the Ga
aette, in long and ably written address.
We welcome him most cordially into the
Editorial corps, and shall expect much of
him in the ensuing Presidential contest.
His cogent arguments and irrefutable facts
will prove stumbling blocks in the path of
Democracy and greatly accelerate the tri-
umphant march of the American Party.

The British mail steamship Persia, Capt.
Judkins, was to have left Liverpool Saturday
last for New York, on her first voyage across
the Atlantic. She is an iron vessel, and the
largest steamer aaoat, 1t is expected she will
perform the voyage in or 8 days. On her
recent trip from Greenock to Liverpool, it is
said, She averaged Is knots an hour. A Liver
pool letter says: Accordingly to the government
rule of adlneasurement, her power is equal to
that of 900 horses. According to the plan
laid dowE in Earl Bardwick's bill, 1900 horses,
and according to james Watts old established
rule of 80, COO ID. per horse, she would work
up to 1000 or 5000 horses She has seven
water light compartments; separate sleeping
accommodations for 800 passengers, aud a
clear promenade from stem 10 stern, along the
roof of the deck house. The weight of iron in
the Persia when launched was 2200 tons and
with the engines, 4v0 tons of coal, and full
cargo, her weight will be 5400 tons, while she
will draw % feet Of water. Her accommoda
ton is for 1900 tons measurement of goods
Steam being her sole motive agent, she is but

The Washington Star remarks that for two
or three weeks past the gold received from
alifornia has been more than usually loaded
with the small crystals of the natural alloy cali
ed iridOsnii9nl, (the hard intractable substance
used for the tips of the gold pens.) This body
is inlusable unalloyed with other metals, and
insolable in acids. Uatil lately, the quantity
oft has been only about half an ounce in one
d, million Of dollars. Last week, however, one
deposit Of only one hundred and sixty ounces
contained seven ounces or more Ofirid0smi1Sl.
From intractability and extreme hardness il
is a great annoyance 10 the workers of gold
who use metal containing it, and it some.
times causes them heavy losses. IL is believed
that most of the gold now received from Cali.
fornia contains large quantities Of this sub
stance.
