TIE BLAINE AMENDMENT.

We hope it is true, as the Springfield
Republican states, that Cardinal Nc
Closkey expresses himself in favor Of the
Blaine amendment to the Constitution pro-
hibiting all connection Of religious sects
with the public schools. But whether the
Cardinal has or has not SO expressed him.
self. 1t Is positively declared that some
other dignitaries of the Roman Church
have spoken in favor of the amendment.
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Mercury" says:
Representatives who have large Catholic constit-
uencies, like those from Baltimore, st. Louis, Gin
einnati, Louisville, New Orleans and Milwaukee.
have received letters from clergymen Of that de-
nomination, urging them to support the PROPOSE
ton whenever moved In Congress. 1t is remark
able that all OF them entertain their request with
very nearly the same line ofargument. They say
that Nr. Blaine's proposed amendment is right
and in every way commendable, and it would for
ever prevent any State from making religious
in regard to federal affairs. They point to New
Hampshire, where the State constitution prohibits
the Catholics from holding any State or local Of
office, and Mr.. Blaine's amendment would invali-
date that prohibition. In regard to the indivisi-
biity ofthe school fund, these clergymen say that
most Of the State constitutions already provide for
that, and, where it is not SO provided, overwhelm-
ing public opinion guards against the appropria-
ton Of public school moneys for any sectarian
purposes. The Catholics, it is said in some Of
these letters, are but one-seventh Of the entire
population, and being so small minority, they
are powerless, hence the amendment Of Mr..
Blaine il really . move in their fsvor, and must
result in their protection against any aggressive
war on the part Of Professionalism. One Of these
letters, which comes from Milwaukee, speaks also
on the subject of taxing church property as sug-
gested in the message, and the reverend writer
says in substance that although the taxing of
and other property used and needed for
their support is wrong in principle yet if the vari.
Gus Protestant communities and other sects ac-
ceps the proposition and will submit to the burden
a. sacrifice to the public interests, the Catholics
viii not be behind them in patriotism, and also
cheerfully acquiesce. Nevertheless, it is safe to
predict, from present indications in Congress that
no such proposition can pass either House. But
as TO the first part, motion for an amendment of
the character indicated by MIR. Blaine-forbidding
any State to establish any form Of religious wor-
ship and to divert to sectaran objects any part Of
school moneys raised by taxa,ion-there is no
doubt Of its being carried almost unanimously,
both in the Senate and the House.

His Chances for the Presidency III

Washington Chroniclc.l
The Chronicle has several times
mentioned Jefferson Davis as a posi-
Die Democratic candidate for the Pres
idency. This suggestion has been no
ticed by a few OF our northern Demo
cratic contemporaries with q feeble at,
tempt at ridi cule: not 50 by the more
sagaciou leaders even in that section
OF the Union. In the South there is
unquestionably q strong feeling in his
favor. We clip and print in another
column an editorial article from the
Galveston News OIL this subject as O
sample, which will be read with interest
by citizens Of all parties. II contains
only u fair expressian OF the sentiments
of the southern Democracy, and if evel
brought to the test will be indorsed by
their northern allies. The writer OF
the Chronicle articles had an excellent
opportunity to observe Mr.. Jefferson
Davis's official conduct and bearing as
Secretary OF War under President
Picrce's administration, and rs a mem
Der of the Senate. HIS ability as an
executive officer and as Senator, no
one whose opinion is worth a grote,
will disparagc. His personal integrity,
and his honest belief in the right of the
several States to secede from the
Union, we think will not he disputed.
In this he had the support Of nearly oil
of the Democratic leaders South, and a
large majoritp of those of the North.
That his zeal outran his judgment in
sanctionins the secession movement is
now as plain TO him, no doubt, as to
any of his old supporters. In his adj
vocacy of the right of States to secede
from the Union, and in taking up arms
in its defense. il is difficult to see in
what sense his position is different
from that of Senators Caperton, Cock
erell, Gordon, Norwood, and others,
now members of that august body OF
statesmen, and e~ighty-edd members of
the House of Representatives from the
Southern States who fought against the
Union, except that he was vastly their
superior in talent and capacity Of lead.

an oath to support the Constitution,
and not in future to take up arms
against it, arc considered trustworthy
