CATHOLIC Difficulty.

There in a rebellion in the Catholic
church at Portsmouth, N. H, where
Patrick Henensy and ten others have
commenced a suit against the priest,
Mr.. Welsh, and Bishop Bacon. They
aver that they assisted largely in rails
ing money with which to build Cath
olic church there, and now are debar-
red from emf fering it without the pay
ment of fee of twenty five cents
They also declare that the priest has
publicly, on the Sabbath day, in the
pulpit, called down the curse of the
Blessed Virgin to rest on the petition
ers; and that he has also called upon
the Divine power to send the cholera
on these persons, and that they may
die and their smell be so bad that their
friends could not stand over them to
take last farewell. Y Observer.
