^jStical power to influence American politics
?not of course to sorvo any object of personal
ambition, (in a Catholic perlate that is
'impossible,') but for the advantage of the
Church of God. Mysterious are the ways of

Thrrdly, it is profitable to the ringleaders of
Natito Americanism, who are enable, by
pointing to this partnership between Chilrcn
and grog-shop, rowdyism rotgnt and religion,
Jo alarm and irtatate decent Americans,
make them hate both Irishmen and CathoI
ica, and so give up their political consciences
and votes into the keeping of them, the Native
ringleaders, who are, I presume, the
very worst men-in America;some of whom
are Englishmen or Orange Irishmen in the
English interest; and who are at all events
playing the English game here.
"Therefore 1 wou/d willingly distract and

The Mercantile Spy System.
.. Our readers mast liavo heard of a combi-,
nation formed time since, constituted nf
mercantile* spies, whose office it was to travel
throughout the Uuited States, and, by a
species of inquisition, to possess themselves, |
not only of the secrets of every man's buai- ,1
ness and his resources, but his character and j
habits. There was a regular organization
of this spy system?this mercantile espionage?with
the headquarters at New York, 1
and rainiticalions whatever it was coven ion t
or profitable to establish a connection.
Now, it. w ill be seen by the most cursory
view that such agencies could be made formi-,
liable engines to undermine credit aud dea- -;
troy character. Admitting the abstract pro- i j
priety of such proccedures, the sources ufer- j (
roncous information are so funny, and the j
field is SO iliri/C. for llie. maliM A# liitrwmonJi. ! '

iliat no probable benefit of obtaining accu-i<
rate intelligence of the real standing of mer-1
cautile houses could outweigh this mischiefs
of such a system. We are glad, therefore,
that the courts aiding public opinion in destroying
an inquisition so pernicious. A verdict

against S. Ik Church, in which $5,000
damages have been awarded, for injury done
to their mercantile credit and reputation.

THE CITIZEN, . < r J
Stcu ia the iiaujw of. a paper printed 5u
New York, and odited by the Irish Patriot,
John ^Titciikl. Ill to-day *a paper wftt Iw>
found a well written article addressed to the,
" Irish in America," which is filled with sound j
sense, and calculated to have an effect upon
those for whom it i* intended and tl?ev f.mn
a no small number in tbe aggregate of our
population. Mitchel is opposed to the
Know Nothings?and justly too?-but at the
same time judges correctly of the cause of
their necesitous organization. When Irish,
as well as other classes of foreigners, cement
together?form companion and hold them-!
selves aloof from all other societies?making '
themselves at one and the same timo valua-!
l>lo material for the political deinagoguo oud
trickster?holding themselves thereby subservient
to the machinations of designing
men, it is enough to arouse Nativism and
make it look about for its protection now
1 and safety hereafter from the continual infusion
of men and manners not unlike the
preMot foreign population of this country.;
And so long as they thus act in concert together,
to the detriment, as we think, of re
' puhlicanism, we do not know hut that the in|
tercets of tho country, and the interests of
society mid individuals, demand a like unanimity
of feeling with those opposed to such
proceedings, even if be obtained, in part, by
politico-religious organizations. Mitciikl is
right?and in every article he has written |
we find the sure evidences of a great mind,
which has been wielded in favor of our in- J
stittitions, and against Abolitionism, Free-'
soil ism, Catholicism, and injustice and ag-1
gression in no matter what shape to be found.
THE ELECTION.
Nkxt Monday and Tuesday will afford to
the "unterrificd " a fine opportunity to exercise
their greatest privilege : voting for whom- i
soever and whatsoever they please! Almost
every Candidate has liis own principles
?fighting beneath his own banner and upon
his own dunghill. There may be a choice of,
men, but to select principles the voter would j
not be unlike the man who hiui the four J
kinds of meat, to-wit: ram. Iamb, sheep and :
mutton?but n little preference.
So far as we have ascertained, all the Can- i
didates for the Legisl iturc nre in favor of aj
change in the Electoral system; upon the j
School question there is likewise a unaniini-;
tv ; a number are in favor of establishing a
Penitentiary, and whilst all of them deprecate
the evils of intemperance (so far as they
have publicly announced any opinion) are
opposed to legislating upon tbe subject. For
the benefit of those wishing to fill out their j
tickets, or make a selection, we present the ,
namee of the Candidates : Maj. B. F. Per- 1
rv, Peiiry E. Duncan, Esq., >V. P. McBee, J
Esq,, Dr. E. Gastt,* J. K. Sto^k, Esq., j
and the Two Standino Candidates !
There is a baker's dozen of applicants for 1
the office of Tax Collector, and good men
and true and among the number?but it is
the universal opinion that some of them will
be beaten ; at the same time wo know of
six or seven wno say tuey are certaiu of be-1
ing elected ! Voters, make a selection?you
have the right If you cannot, out of the
large number of good and competent men
offering for the different offices, you must bo
fastidious.
Since the above was in type, we learn
from a card that Dr. Cantt has declined.
MISS BRENAN'S CONCERT.
Misb IIuknan favored our citizens with
\ Concert on Wednesday evening last, which ,
is to l>e the last she will give, at least in the
Cancer of the Mountains, before her departure
for Europe. Tho Concert was held at
the Mansion House, which was early filled
with the beauty and fashion of our village,
who have upon each succeeding occasion,
thronged to hear her. She was assisted by
Mr. IvKorpKu, who, as a musician, sustains
the reputation of an accomplished pcrfromer.
The selections from "Lucretin Borgia,"
(the favorite of the much lamented Soutao,)
were sting so sweetly that the audience was j
completely enraptured. "Home, Sweet
Home," she sang most charmingly, and
"Coming through the Rye," has sweeter
charms whene'er again she sing* it. But the
crowning piece, which always brings a smile
from her friends, was " I'm Over Young to
Marry Yet," und whilst singing it, ber countenance-ao
beautifully expressed tbe sentiments
of the song, we truly thought " 'twould
be a shame, to take her from her music yet?'

of the kind should l>e located in the State,
and like a certain editor was in regard to tbc
Asylum, he icould like to ace it located in
Greenville District somewhere i perhaps at
Paris Mountain?as to'this the deponent
snyeth nothing. This was a "corker" for
somo of thcin, and in little or no time he
found loud opposition. . Finding it no go,he
bethought himself of a new feature in the
liquor subject, and fell oncoanore upon that,
(a dernier resort) and tbe scales changed
in his favor as suddenly as they had but a
short time before gone upon the other hand.
We think of making a few remarks, deducing
from this incident an argument in favor
of the reform movement. There is not,
we verily bolieve, a Temperance man in the
State?favoring a prohibitory law?who is
anxious that the question should be made a
test nt tbe nresent election. Neither Howe
believe they have hud anything to do in the
propounding of questions to candidates with
regard to their views upon this Bubject. We
know of no candidate, at least in the npcountry,
who is stumping it or favoring a
Prohibitory Law. Opponents of tho measure
have gotten up the whol^wattcr themselves,
whilst the other party is standing
aloof from the contest The opponents of
restriction upon the sale of ardent spirits fear I
the contest?rthoy anticipate its coming, am]
by their t>Ucuuoik>ne.ss may avert its coming
for a time. The minds of the people are
rapidly changing in this respect, audit will
require but a few years more to enable tlie
friends of Law, Order, and the much perverted,
do\vu-trod<lcn and little-appreciated
liberty, to bring to the polls a sufficient
number of votes to secure at least a change
in onr present license system.
But to the Liquor and Penitentiary subject
No man can with a feeling true to
humanity, and a proper regard for the failings
of mankind, advocate the manufacture
of alcoholic drinks, their free consumption,
the right to get drunk, and all that, at the
same time advocate the importance of a
Penitentiary system. Why not abate at
once, and at the fountain, the very source of
the evils calling forth the necessary erection

lio a self-evident fact, that if we bad no
distilleries nnd groggeries, there wonkl be
little or no use for a Penitentiary. But ao
long as we are to have them, and the State
in a measure abets in the work of making
drunkards and murderers, let there be a place
for the keeping of them. And in the event
it is established we would like especially to
see a place fitted up for the accommodation
of the dlstillerera. It is reasonable that the
cause should go with the ell'ecta.
THE LADIE'S FAIR.
The Fair of the Ladies of the Baptist
Church, which was held on Thursday evenrng

Tlie Petersburg Intelligencer, in an article
beaded "Literature at tho South," refers to
souie recent taunts of the Tribune, in rela'
tion to the warm, reception of Putluan's
Mngazit)* at lite Souths The Intelligencer
makes some quotations of a very insulting
character from -the Tribune, and applies to
them the following remarks, which deserves
universal attention.
'What is remarkably curious too,' it says, Hu
these protests, is that the literary patronage,
of the South is a matter qf great moment"
I * * '
"Those Southern writers talk as if their
subscriptions to a magazine were absolutely
essential to to its existence." "When they
succeed in giving an efficient support to a
single magazine of their own, it will be time
enough for them to brag of tbeir literary benevolence
and pecuniary magnifienco."?
"Jcrshuau is waxiug fat. After having for
nearly ualf a century luxuratcd upon Southern
softness in tlio shape of an enormous voluntary
tribune which has built up their cities,
and nearly the whole stricture of their present
wealth aud.power, these Northern beneficiaries,
if the Tribuno is to be believed, can
now do very well without us. A short time
since that journal asserted w ith great sang
froid that Southern merchants dated not '
to show themselves in the streets of New i
York least they tniglu be disagreeably re- !
minded of their debts to the merchants there. !
It is to bo wished that these tan nts and snr-j
casms may have the effect of rousing the
South to a proper sense of her diguity and
true interests, and to the pursuit of a wise
policy in future. Let us, say we, gue tin of:
tieient support to our owu literature and our
own commerce, which wo have been so long
and so suicidally neglecting to do. Let us
deal with the North in a way to conviuce her
that we are not altogellicrjinsonsiblo or unworthy

The Sandwich Islands Treaty.
The Albany Evening Journal, which
speaks apparently ex cathedra, asserts posi tively
that a treaty for the annexation of the
Sandwich Islands is now in Washington,
the sulwtance of which is as follows :
"The Inlands are to be at once admitted ;
into the Union, not as a territory, but as a !
State?with full sovereign power. In eon- j
siderntion of this surrender of their national !
sovereignty, the. Unitod States, besides agree- j
ing to respeot all existing charters, land titles, {
&C., are to pay some #300,000 or #-100,000
annuity as life annuities to such persons as j
the sovereign authorities shall designate."
There are other provisions of the treaty |
which its negotiators must have consented ,
to, no less extraordinary than that stipula- j
ting for the admissiou of these Islands as a
State, and not as a territory. Annuities are
provided for the royal families and nobles,
amounting to about thirty individuals, which
pensions are to cease witu Uieir natural lives.

this would niuko a snug turn. The pension 1

Indians of this continent, whose peculiarity ,
of relation to the United Stales, that of tutelage,
rendered it necessary ; bnt whether it;
would be proper to originate a system of this

question of policy. "Besides the sovereignty j
of the Islauds, all the government property, |
including buildings, claims upon foreign gov- ,

importance since the existence of a large demand
from California. One concern had
an order from Huston, last month, for 12,000

A woiuhb* pfOphet'down South, said
lately, hft one of nis sermons, that he "was
sent to redeem the world and all tilings therein."
Whereupon a native pulled out two
Ave dollar bilie on a broken bank, and asked
him to fork ovor the specie for them, 1
bi compelled to withdraw within its own
limits, and that an armed force ahouid be
employed to enforce tliia stipulation, without
actual war between parties thus brought into
this belligerent relation, it a most extraordinary
chapter in this history. Austria engages
with Turkey to ffto her territory' of tee
invader, who has encroached on her rights,
contrary to express treaty, and yet Austria
declares that on the part of the invader there
hi no cause of war. Austria enters into obligations
with the Allies, to preserve the integrity
of the Ottoman territory and the independence
of Turkey figaint, what she admits*
to be acts in defiance of treaty, acts which
are unprovoked, leading to. the rupture of thfe*
balance of power, and yet Russia, which has
done all this, lias furnished, says Austria, nei
casus Mii. "Whatever may be the conclusion
of policy, there is here certainly no logical
relation. The posture of aruivd neutral',
ity would be admissible if Austria had not
entered into treaty obligations, both with the
Ottoman l'orte and the Allies, which lead
by necessary inference to one of active hostility.

Looking for a Letter1>kau
render, did you overlook and wait,
wait nnd look for ?n expected epistle, till
?' -our eves wefe dim with Watching 1 Thus
invc 1 looked ninny a time?thus look I
| now; ?nd I really know nothing more
spirit crushing. ' Ohe enrtnot keep up one's
t accustomed lira and energy. It \> ill ooce
away. One cannot work, 0110 cannot read,
I one cannot think as ho would. The buri
don of the heart continually is, "why don't
I it come."
"Alt, why don't it come J"
Perhaps sickness had laid low the hand
that should and would have wielded for us
the'pen. Perhaps (lentil has stilled it forI
ever. J'erliaps?hut these visions are loo
1 terrible, we will shut thein out from our ,
| hearts and from In-fore our eyes. To-morrow
the letter tnay come. And thus wo
will wait Atid hope on.
But truly, there is no grentcr cross to bear
in life I ween, than the not receiving of ex
jicctcd letters. One is always ready to irni
agine tlie worst picture the nu?t terrible.
If only the negligent would think of thia,
: if only they would relieve the pain and anguish
t(t?fy arc causing, the letter* would
; come. Even in sickness let the expected
missive speed 011 ils way. There are friends
usually, around the sick las]. I,et tliein
writ? to tell lire absence of the beloyeu ones.
Even should death come in their words, it
were not much worse then this terrible suspense.
Indeed, nothing is worse?nothing
more truly heart trying.?Olitf rtranrh.
California Wonder*.
Camfohkia always was a wonderful coun
try, but it is now getting to he more wonderful
than ever. It is a land of marvels ah<1
marvellous phenomena, natural and uuuatarnl.
The ]>apeiv by the Inst steamer told us
of the discovery of a lake, the waters of which
were so largely possessed of the principle of
buoyancy that tlie huntau body would not
sink in it. Still more extraordinary is the
! discovery of a subterranean pass through the
mountains of the Sierra Nevada. .;
! No doubt all this is true; we can believe
almost anything after the "buoyant water
' storybut then there havo been so many
like drafts on our credulity from the timto
quarter, in times past, that we must bo etI
cused if w e insist on time to consider whether
it is best to take tlio above all down aa '
-lactH," or to spiue it with a "few grains of
i allowance."
By the Way, it may not be impertinent to
inquire of our California contemporary what
! has boeo*ie of the "remains of the wonderful
city" some Major Longbow discovered
near the head waters of the Colorado last
summer? We should like to have an in- j
2nest on those "remains," if they can be
uiid. The "strange people" inhabiting
| that same "city" we should also like to hear
1 from, at earliest convenience.

The Truth must Prevail.
When Boston closed tlie gates of Faneuil
Hall upou her great Webster the heart of the
country opened unto hiin. When Philadelphia
hung the palaces of her merchant princes
in sable because Jackson had defied the
Bank of the United States, Labor uplifted
his broad brow and blessed the hero who
had resisted the monster. So will it be with
Judge Douglas at Chicago. Refused a Hearing
there, be will go oat among the people
of the State and address them m their villas
