SuARp AND TRuE In tho course Of
a recent debate in the United States
Senate, the Democratic members were
taunted with their numerical weak.
ness in that body. Mr.. Casserly, a
Democratic Senator from California,
aud who by the way is us sharp as Il
steel trap, said that "he thanked God
that none Of his party had been sent
to the Senate by bayoncts over the
heads OF downtrodden and oppressed
people, nor could an army officer be
found who had spark of Democracy
in him, mean enough to ioist himself
into either branch Of Congress or a
State Legislature"
II Casserly did not grasp the Radi-
Gals that time where tho wool was
short, then we know nothing about IT,

promiscuous manner in Radical socic.
ty. In the Washington corrcspon-
dence Of the Boston Post, the follow.
ing incident is related: AT Colonel
Forney's late reception, the first prac.
tical commingling of tho white aud
colored races in social way that has
transpired this season was seen. Tho
appearance of General Tato at the
Presidents reception, and some 9th
ers thereafter, was of severely formal
character but at Colonel Forncy's re-
reption, the severe formal ceremony
Of presentation to host and guests
was followed by the tipping OF the
glass IN respectful recognition and
general participation. Al the inior.
NAL refreshment table, Prof Vashon
and three colored persons were the
recipients of these ciyilities. Whilst
these social commingfings were pro.
crossing, the colorcd guests gathered
about the rcircshmcnt table, after the
custom of their white friends. A dis
tinguishcd member Of Congress, not
discovering tho difference between
the colorcd guests and colorcd wait
ers, hailed ono of tho former with,
Here, waiter, give me slice of that

Forney's house was certainly the
right place to inauguratc this mulish
age. The Black and White Rovolers
jubilee has commenced.

1t is a great pity that every loyal
ist cannot have an Office ut the ox-
pensc of the people. To this end las
the Radical party labored ever since
1860. They even inauguraled the
civil war in order to multiply officers
and issue bonds to enrich themselves
at the expense Of tho laboring and
producing classes.
Itis II notorious fact that two thirds
of our Congressman and Legislators
enter the halls oflcgislalion very poor,
but after serving the dear people two
or three terms they return to their
constituents rich and that too, on n
salary that scarcely pays their board
bill.
This result our country cousins
hardly understand, yet they are COM
PEELED to admit the fact, because of the
multiplicity Of stamps manufactured
by the Government, and the exorbi-
tant rates of interest they arc com
pelled to pay for the use of money.
A scheme is now on foot in our
Legislature TO fuist one hundred and
thirty Office holders on the taxpayers
ior the next year. A bill has been
reported in the State Senate providing
for the calling Of a Convention TO
amend the Constitution of Pennsylva-
MIA. 1t proposes vote for or against
convention at the general election
in October, and at the same time l30
delegates are TO be voted for by the
citizens. Upon counting the votes, il
there is majority against conven-
tion, then all the rest Of the machinery
is useless and thrown aside. If there
is majority in favor Of a convention,
then the delegates are TO meet at
Harrisburg on tho second Tuesday
(Sth) Of November, 1870, and to have
the power 10 propose TO the citizens
of this Commonwealth for their
approval or rejection ne,c ConStttu-
fion or amendments TO the present one.
We are willing to open the door,
and that very wide too; for the man
ufaclurc, or amendment of the Con
stitulion, if the party in power will
guarantee TO respect new instruments
of that character. 1t is u notorious
fact. uat as II party, they treat the
old ones both National and State,
with less respect than note from
Mrs. Grant, or Gcary, TO uttend a
ball, although they take an oath to
support them. In fact we are willing
TO submit 10 any amount of taxation
torture, if it will only lead black and
Uhde Republicans TO believe in, and
support "the Supreme law" Of the
State and Nation.
We have but little faith in the
virtue or competency of an individual
or party who have befouled every
channel Of American Liberty, for ten
long years. Those who have but little
respect for the present Constitution,
are lily qualified to amend it, or make
new one. No Radical ever built ~
a Church or saved State. They are
as impotcnt for good as infants arc
to build railroads; hence we have no
faith in submitting our Constitution
to hands which are rendered incompc
tent by nature to do a good act.

forum" Anxious to secure Rome against
Invasion, by his command the ancient walls
were repaired; fifteen towers, in the most
accessible stations, were built or renewed,
and creating new Rione beyond the Tiber,
including the Tiber, st. Angelo and St.
PETERS, he surrounded it with strong walls,
to this hour remaining, and completed and
consecrated this new town. with religious
ceremonies, on the 9th Of June, s52. Glib
bon says: The love of fame, q generous
but worldly passion, may be detected in
the name of the Leonine City, which he
bestowed on the Vatican, yet the pride of
the dedication was tempered with Chris
tian penance and humility. The boundary
was trod by the Bishop and his clergy bare
foot, in sackcloth and ashes; the songs of
triumph were modulated to psalms and
litanies; the walls besprinkled with holy
water, and the ceremony was concluded
with a prayer, that, under the guardian
care of the Apostles and the angelic host,
both the old and the new Rome might be
ever preserved pure, prosperous and i'm
pregnable."

IRISH CHURCH EsTABLISHMENT.-The re-
endowment of the Irish Protestant Church
Establishment is said to be going on very
badly, the subscriptions and donations fall
ing very far short of the expected require
ments. A London Protestant paper points
out the folly of the Irish Protestants not
endeavoring to enter into some arrange
ment in time respecting the ecclesiastical
buildings:
There are (says our contemporary sew
eral cathedrals once belonging to the Ro-
indeed. There are large and handsesse
parish churches, "a world too wide" even
for the existing congregations, but hitherto
made tolerable by the care and outlay of
the State. Here are grave embarrassments
for the Irish Professionals, demanding on
their part either common sense or serious
sacrifices. But they will not hear of giving
back the cathedrals. They will not listen
to the suggestion that DR.. Trench should
sell his Dublin palace to DR.. Cullen, and
invest the money for the benefit of the
Church. All over the country they still talk
of retaining the churches and the rectories
which are much too big and costly for their
diminished means.
1t does certainly seem a curious anomaly
(says the Unirerse) that in the capital of
Catholic Ireland the two ancient land there
fore, of course, once Catholic) cathedrals
should be still in Protestant hands. Gas
tholics, however, can afford to wait, land
can complete the churches now in course
Of erection, after which, it is to be hoped,
that many more will be required for the |
Catholic population.

THE LEoNINE CITY. - The following
sketch is interesting az present: This is o
part of Rome, so-called, and it lies between
the Tiber, the city wall, and the Barberini
Villa. AS to the origin of the name, the
Philadelphia Press says: Leo I'LL, the hun
dredth Pope, and the same who, on Christ
mas Day, A. d. 800, had crowned Charlie
magne as Emperor of the West, in St.
Peters Church mot the present structure),
conceived the idea of enclosing Rome with
fortified walls, but was unable to carry out
that project from want of means. Thirty
six years after the death of this Pope, one
of his successors, the fourth who assumed
the name of Leo, and was a Roman by
birth and feeling, resolved to do what the
other had desired. Gibbon says: "The
courage of the first ages of the Republic
glowed in his breast; and amidst the ruins
of his country he stood erect, like one of
the firm and lofty columns that rear their
heads above the fragments of the Roman
