to be peculiarly unfortunate, his store was robbed
again on Friday night last The thieves procured

get much TO reward them for their trouble, as
Capt. A. has been robbed so often that he does
not leave many articles Of value in his store any
more. We believe this makes the fourth time
his store, which stands little distance from any
dwellings, has been robbed.

"TmE CATHOLIC MEMORIAL. THE editor of
cate in strong terms the signing of the above
named petition by the Professionals Of Wilmington.
We sincerely hope our citizens will think twice
before putting their names TO such paper.
If Justice, such as the Jonrnat commends should
prevail with us all, the public schools would be
closed for the want of support.
If one class of the community who are dissat-
isfied with certain features of the schools, may
ask for given portion of the money raised by
taxation, then each and every class may with
equal justice make like request.-ln truth, each
dissatisfied individual has his rights and might
demand his portion.
A large number of the tax payers In this city
are not satisfied to avail themselves of the use of
the public schools.-Suppose they should petition
for their share.
1t is very certain that if this "memorial' is
granted to the Romaniss, the Protcstants will en-
ter their claim.
The Episcopalians will, and they include, be-
sides native Americans, large body Of English
and Irish.
Many Christians are not satisfied with the Sc
verance of religious teaching from learning gen.
orally. But they sec no way to remedy this de-
feet in the public schools.
The sway of any particular religious body
would not be tolerated then for moment.
We are informed that nearly if not quite one
third of our citizens are Catholics. We have no
means ut hand Of testing what we believe to be
mistake.
Suppose one-third, eight thousand, of the pop
ulation are Romanists, and then suppose they pay
only one-eighth of the whole tax, and yet ask for
clear third of the money. Docs II take much
penetration to see that we are absolutely taxed to
afford them the privilege of having their own
children thoroughly mdoctrinated in their own
tenets and perhaps of putting their schools on
such footing as to tempt the Protcstants to send
their children to them.
1t Is very pleasant to be complimented for our
freedom from "all bigotry or sec,arian intol-
erance"
Virtues, so peculiarly Roman CATH lllc, that if
all history did not do them Justice their very
name would be synonymous with tolerence and
love.
Many of us lay claim TO intelligence and spirit
of impartial justice, which, at the same time, we
could not be prevailed on to sign a memorial, y
the practical working of which, If fully and just
ly carried out would close the public schools.

Before Mayor Valentine.
BEIluERENr.-Dania McIlhuny, having raised
his courage to the fighting point by internal ap-
plications Of the ardert, attacked peaceful Ger
man. Officers Buck and Baylis took him in
charge, and his Honor, the Mayor, fined him 30
cents and costs.
DRuSKESNEss.-Wm Monaghan was also ar
rested by officer Jones for drunkenness and fined
30 cents and costs.
WoRsr rIAN Ton CAr.-Wm. Brown (col-
ored) got drunk, and was making night bideous
with unearhly noises, more resembling the debate
Of a caucus of cats than any thing else. His mu-
steal performances were cut short by officer Buck,
who took him to the Hall where he was fined 30
cents and costs.
PocKEr-PIcKING.-IIenr Purnell was arrested
by officer Heal on the complaint of VIM. McFad-

to answer at the next term Of Court
THIEVES cAuGiir.-Edward Saunders and Hen
ry Brown (coloredj were arrested, the first by
officers Heal and Heritage, and the latter by Off
Ger Buck. Both of these men are suspected of
having been pretty extensively engaged In rob-
bling, this winter. Saunders n short time ago
went into the bakery at Fourth and King streets,
and bought few cakes, and finding that there
was only woman in the store he went out but
shortly afterwards stealthily returned and had
pulled the money drawer partly open when the
woman discovered him, he grabbed about ten
dollnrs and ran Brown robbed n money drawer

that they have pawned considerably more goods

lin lying on the pavement drunk, he brought him

costs.
