Rev. Althanase Coqueral, one of the most
eminent of tue French Protestant clergy, recent
~ said in one OF his lectures at Boston, that the
working classes Of his country had come to be-
lieye that religion was a species of dCSpOtiSm,
and this had destroyed their faith in God. They
firmly believed that if they embraced any re-
laion they must give up every civil and poti-
cal right. He then explained how the supreme
dominance of the Catholic church had effected
this terrible work. Atheists, he thought, were
less than heather. He analyZCd the irrelgiOuS
elements in the lae instruction with great
power, and closed 10y advising the board TO begin
theii campaign in the European mission with
schools, not preaching, or the establishment OF
churches.
The eorOner's jury in the case Of James Rack
EFT, the pauper whO killed himself by jumping
from the cars while being taken to the Tcwks-
bury ams-house, have returned a verdict in
which they censure the board of directors Of
public institutions Of Boston for sending state
pauperS on the railroads without placing them
in pl of oil Nrh eDln
business it should be TO see that they reach their
destination safely. The testimony shows that
when he left Boston, Racket was calm and
apparently RATIONAL although Policeman
Croker, who took him to the depot, considered
II unsafe to leave him without watching: that
before he leaped from the train, he had been sit
ting on the platform of one of the cars that the
train was not stopped, although a brakeman was
sent back from the next station TO search for
HIM; and that Mr.. Stevens, who had him in
charge, was in the smoking ear playing cuchrc.

tons burthen, named the Anemone was recent
~ purchased at Bristol K. l., by Arthur Che |
ney, Esq, the proprietor Of the Globe theatre,
and Capt J. W. Pierce, an old salt of Boston

round 10 Boston. As captain, pilot, engineer,
fireman, cook, and "all hands" the captain
fired up aud started from Bristol on the Both
ult., aud reached Hyannis ia % hours, re-
markably quick passage. Storms and heavy
winds then set in, OBTAINING the Anemone in
port ten days, when Capt. Bibber, of the Yacht
Junlata, Shipped rs an assistant, and the two
bold mariners succeeded in doubling the cape,
and safely anchored the little steamer in Barn
stable barbor. Obtaining fresh stock of sup
plies here, they again got up steam and headed
for Boston, at which port they arrived very
wet on Saturday. The steamer sets only
fourteen inches out of water, aud has a flush
deck, Sc that the waves wash over it unchecked |
the same as on our onitorirou-cladS, aud kept
the crew in a very moist condition. Capt
Pierce says the weather was rough throughout
the voyage, but the Auemone behaved noby,
proving herself safe, staunch and very fast

Lowell finds time, notwithstanding its busy
fight against the small poX, TO raise $4,000 for
the Chicago sufferers.

Monday, with the concurrence of the board of
physicians, voted TO remove all restrictions in
regard TO public gatherings, etc., the endemic

to its further spread. All future cases that
may occur Will be Immediately isolated, and the
most stringent efforts will be continued for the

one case of yaliooid has been reported for the
past four days, and but four deaths from small
