Already the city has had some trying eNPe''-

Cardinal Manning, in recent
address, said he had no contention
with the broad, equal liberalism of
the just, benign and tolerant race
Of men who had been foremost in
this country the last eighty or one
hundred years, and who had brought
upon our land reign Of justice and
equality ; men who were resolved to
deprive no man of hi, liberty so
long as he did not abuse it, and TO
violate no mans conscience in re-
ligiOn or in his duty to himself or
his children. There was, however,
apparently springing up among us
an aggressive liberalism, borrowed
from the theorists aud constitution
mOngers of France in its worst
period. 1t was apolicy not found

people, but upon the abstract theO.

from Henry county, Va, apprO lch-
ed him and told him to get out Of
it, as it belonged to him. Mr.. O..
refused to comply with the request
or command, and used rough Ian
guage in return for the uncouth
manner in which he was approach
ed. WhereupOn Martin drew a
pistol and commenced firing, three
balls entering Carington's person.
one In the neck, one in the groin,
and the other in the left side. The
wounded man was taken to honse
near the junction and his father tel

in jail. Both of the young men
belong to prominent and inhuen-
tial Virginia families. Young Gar

death relieved him of his agony.
We did not learn whether there
had been any misunderstanding
