urchbishops of Canterbury and Ytirlr, have
incomes of over two hundred and fifty
thousand dollars. The bishops of Derry,
Cloyne, Cashel, Cork and Ferns, have an
annual income, to Wl)it'.l), the salary of the
President of the United States is a mere
fraction. 'I‘liat ofthe Bishop of London,
will soon be three hundred thousand dol-
lars per annum. All these are the inde-
pendent clergy under an established’
church and a monarchy. The annualrev-
enues of the church have been shown in a
printed table, and they amount to the e-
normous sum of £9,453,555, or $45,405,-
912. The manner in which this is collec-
ted, proves that it is not a 'l'Ol’ll72l(l'I'_l/ con-
tribution. The lzelpless widow, and the
poor dissenting clergyman, and his consci-
entious parishioner, who have suffered dis-
traint on property, and imprisonment, will
bear witness it is not a voluntary system.
Nay, the cost and da‘n'g‘e1“ of collecting

This immense revenue does certainly af-
ford a rare opportunity for the gratui‘ous
instruction of the poor ;’ but the poor of
England feel that such religion is a poor
return for famine. Untaught, unfed, and
unclotlied, how can they be instructed by
that church which plunders them. We
have read the reports of the British and
Fore?gn School -Society, and have been as-
tonished at the developments it makes of
the ignorance of the lower classes. Out.
of 22,000 inhabitants in one parish of the
city of Durham, only one in thirty re-
ceivesinstruction. Out of 6,000 children
in \Volverhampton,. there is provision for
the education'ofo'ri‘ly one our of"eve'i'y nine.
In Worcestershire, in sixty six parishes,
containing 14,000 inhabitants, there are
only twelve sclioolmasters, while in a ter-
ritory of thirteen miles by seven, in Buck-
inghamshire, there was only one school
where the poor could be taught. The
same‘d‘epl'orable state of things existed in
Bucks county, Berkshire, and Kent. This
is ‘gratuitous provision’ for tlie.,_r.eligious
instruction of the poor, with-a vengeance.
The truth is, the laborer of England is
forced to the starving point, to furnish the
very money by which lie'is' able to have
this “gratu-z‘tous~provision,” which, after all
never rea'cl.ie's'llim. Half the money for-
ced out of England by her tithe system
would supply every parish with a clergy-
man and schoolmaster, and leave an ample
fund for the poor. If republicanism sad-
dled such a burden on us as the establish-
ed church places on the neck of the Brit-
ish people, we should certainly cease to
be republicans; and ifMr. Alison wishes
to convince the world of the evils ofa free
government, and slander it beyond recov-
ery, let it be charged with the curses
which England inflicts on her subjects ‘
through her church. Her ‘gratuitous pro-
vision’ for the poor is like the generosity
efhim, who

One ofour citizens who has, in a recent trip justice of the remarks made by Hon. Mr.

This beautiful spot is situated on the‘

streaches into ‘»Vatertown two thirds of

four and a half miles, and onegand. a quar-
ter miles west from Harv-ard‘Univet'sit'y.
It comprises one liundrediand ten acres of
dry gravelly land, finely wooded with heal-
thy vigorous tress in almost every variety
ofthe forest species. There are five arti-~
ficial ponds of \vater; the highest mound
is one hundred and twenty five feet above
the waters of Charles river, w-liicli flows
nearly to the south and south eastern line‘
of the Cemetery. The wliole extent of‘
ground is divided by carriage avenues,
‘.30 feet‘ wide, and foot paths six feet wide
for an extent of thiity ails-6, so curved
and winding in their course, as to make it
diflicult for a stranger to keep the even

the most splended production ofthe sculp-
tures art, to the neat and simple pyramid,

TEXAS.
The official correspondence between
Hr. Donelson, Charge d’affairs of the Uni-
ted States, and Hon. Ebenezer Allen, At-
torney General of Texas, has just been
published. Since Texas is to be received
it is well to know on what terms she is
coming. The aforesaid correspondence
gives alittle more light on this matter
than any thing previously published. Mr.
Donelson, speaking of the Texas debt,
says: _
Ifthey [the United States] have, in this in’-'
stancr, made proposals of Union to 'l"€.'i"i1S
on terms which deprive her of means‘ that
should be exclusively hers, to enable her‘ to pay
the debt contracted in the war for her indepen-'
dence, it has been accidental, and no a'ssu‘ra*nee
from the undersigned can be needed 1'0 give val-
ue to the anticipation that such an (’)‘I‘0'I‘ will be
correclcd, wlieuever it is c.on,iuiunica'te-cl‘ to the
government of the United States.
VVherein he states that Texas need
stand in no fear of being obliged to pay
lrer debt,-' provided she will apply to the
United ttates government. And. further
on he says that ‘the United States will se-
cure to her hereafter all that she can rea-
sonably desire, to place her on the most
favorable footing with other members of
the Union.’ VVe have not as yet learnt
that Mr. Donelson had any authority to
make these promises. Congress has not
madea-ny such assurances,nor given him
theliberty to‘ do so, neither has the Presi-
dent to-‘our knowled‘ge‘, and if he had Ize
had" no authority to do so. And this is not
all. Mr. D. assures Mr. Allen, that “the
United States will make many improve-
ments necessary on the sea coast ofTexas
to protect and facilitate her commerce.’
'J'lie'I.’l3rii,ted States has refused to do this
for herself, and-moreover Mr. D. has pro-
fessed himselfepposed to internal improve‘-
ments, with whn-t face then he can official-
ly assure Texas that the United States will
do for her what she has refused to do for
herself, is a mystery. We have no objec-
tion that Texas, when she is admitted,
should sliare equally with the other States
of the Union, but it is unjust that she
should have more than the others.
Mr. Allen as s Mr. Done-lson,iftlie Uni-
ted States,iii case Texas should be invaded
would expect it to sustain its burdens ex-
clusively. To this Mr. D. replies that ‘he
has not a doubt the requisite instructions
will be immediately issued by the Presi-
dent of the United States, for securing to
the Western frontier of Texas full protec-
tion against any invasion that may be
again, Mr. Allen speaking of the ‘onerous
the condition of annexation, Mr. Donel-
son replies, ‘the undersigned admits the
Allen, in relation to the extraordinary ex-
pensestlirown upon Texas by the steps
necessary to execute the provisions of the
he then goes onto say, ‘under nearly sim-
ilar circumstances the United States have
borne the expenses incurred by their ter-
ritorial government; aiid it may be confi-
dentially anticipated that the same liberal-
ity will be extended to Texas.’
We have not room to give the whole of
their correspondence, but we have given
enough to show its general tenor. It is
plain that our government intends to do
more for 'Ile—x.ns than \vas'promised in the
resolutions passed by Congress. And if
we are not mistaken tlie- United States
will come out second best in the bargain.

A rare trip is contemplated, from Bo-

says, the‘ project is to charter a fast Stil-

experienced sliipmasters and mates-to
sail for Penobscot Bay, visit St. John, N.

Norfolk, New York, and the Sound, ‘to
Boston. 3
The London papers are calling upon Sir
Robert Peel for a duty on Ini./z'uri..s~, as tie
supply is fast exceeding the demand. The
tariff would probably have to be adjustird
on revenue principles, as we see no (lis[.0-
sition evinced by the English people to
pioduce their own Indians. 1

Conference of Congregational ministers oflllaine
adopted the following minute by a vote nearly
unanimous: . ‘
“The General Conference of Maine has
seen with surprise and gri.--f,_ the report
adopted by the General Assembly of the
Presbyterian Cliurcli at their recent session
in Cincinnati. The document appears, in
view of the Conference, to be dire tly at
varicnce with the foruier report made by
the General Assembly on the same subject
in 1818, and to be intended as a justifica-
tion ofthe system ofslavery now cxistirg
in the Southern States, by an appeal to the
Scriptvres, and contains nothing which
looks,'however remotely, to its overthrow;
but. it is fitted to produce the impression
that this system is justified by the word of
God,—and therefore not to be abolished.
The Conference deem it ther fore a duty,
publicly to express their dissent from these
proceedings ofa body with wliich tlicy
have so long maintained fraternal inter-
course.”
From .’/ze l’ar'1_7]ic.—I'I. M. Frigate Talbot,
with the Englisli Admiral on board to ad-
just the clifficiilties between the Frciicli
and Natives, arrived at Tahiti, February
lfith. The French Admiral signalized to
know if the Talbot would salute the French
flag. The Talbot made no reply, but
made a signal for the British steamer Sala-
mander to tow her into the harbor, which
was don_e. After the T. was towed in, t'ne
French Governor sent on board the T.
with an inquiry of the Admiral whether he
would salute the French protective flag.
The Admiral replied that he should do as
the British Consul, Gen. Miller, decided.
Gen. Miller decided that if he were in the
Ad'miral’s place, he should not salute the
flag. This being made lnown to the Ad-
miral he refused to pay the required re
spect to the protective flag. In conse-
quence of this refusal, Gov. Brant ordered
a boat from the French frigate Uraiiie to
row a guard around the Talbot and allow
no communication with the shore, which
was strictly enforded.—-Tl.c Talbot, \\ illi-

.I1\'Di.\ RUBB!-‘.R.—-_——A letter written by Mr. Bit‘-‘
ney the candidateidftlie india rubber party, for
the prosedcncy at the last election, to a gentle-
man who is at a loss to l\'l1()\V'h0tv Mr, B, could
conscientiously swear to support the Constitu-
in its present form, has by some rnisfortune got
into the newspapers‘. Mr. B ‘it is asserted ac-
l:n_oaledg'es’ its paternity. The way these fig-
menis of conscientious resti'aii_s are got along
wizh is, to say the least, very much in keeping
with the positions, arguments, and policy ofthe
par y to which the gentleman belongs, and of

“ C ’ l _‘ l '. _ . ‘ '° ° ._ whicli, lie is certainly a very worthy member.-—
chai'actcr, he can give niiytliing iiiorc for-9.1.
his is the way Mr. Birncy eases his conscience‘
jof the matter. He says to his friend:
“Such parts of the Constitution as are
;0pp0~'cd to the law of God, to common
‘justice, to humanity, to good morals, I re-‘A
lject as no part oftli-at instrument. 1 should
=havc no hesitation in “u[fii'mi'-ng,” to su)-
, port the constitution of govern nent,whilst
' I should be prepared,ind:-ccl consider ir.y-'
3S(.‘lf bound, to disreg-;ii~d any iniinor-.il pro-
lvisions that niiglit be fuuiid in it.”
This, says a cotempomry, is the moral Mr.-
Birizeyl I-le does not liesit-ate before God and his
country toswcar to support and maintain the
Constilulion ofilie United Siaic.-., and yet in his
heart he means no such thing.‘ He means :‘
that whatever oftliat instrument \\'liicliconflicts'
with l1lSSt.'l1St‘ ofiiglit, ll(.‘ shall traniple under
his feet: he nicaus to trio/ale iI,wliile he swears
to support it. A inan who thus swears is a pe’r‘- ‘
jurer l)€f.1l‘C high llcaveii, and no subtlety of'r’éa~'
'soiiing or cant about ‘immoral provisons' can’
make it any thing else. A witness on the stand‘
who swears to tell the whole truth, and does not
tell ll, perjures liimst-ll'.; and a man who will
swear to support the Cor.-szituiion, the whole of
it, not a part, and at the same time is determin-
ed to support only so much of it as he in his
wisdom tliiukspropcr, is a perjurer; and no man ,
in our opinion, can gainsay it. And he who‘
would defend Birne_v's doctrine ought to be ex-
cluded from ihejury-box and the witness-stand;
lie is not to be trusted, whatever his profession’
may he; he is it bad man, and his doctrine is on
a par “with the refined wickedness ol'.lesuiiism,
or the oaths exacted in the middle ages at the
vaiican .” Mr. llirney is, we venture to say the’
firs! Prcsidciitial candidate who would have
made his first introduction to oflice the taking 017

tent, not surpassed for years. Of its violence,
some-‘idea may be formed from the effectsas
seen upon ilie property ofthe following gentle-
men, the account of which was communicated
to us by one of the sufferers.
A large barn belonging to Mr. Belden Scott
had the rooflifted completely off, and utterly de-
molislied, while the body of of the building was
fairly removed from its foundations. The same‘
genilemnn had a smoke house and necessary ta-
krn from their places and smashed to pieces.
Charles Tutile had the gable end of his bariz
struction offruit and other trees.
‘Wm. Morgan was injured by the removal in a
very clean and workinanlikc manner, of the si-
dingofilie gable end of hie dwelling.

on his premises were blown down.

corn either injured or destroyed by being broken

had blown‘ from every quarter at once.
The work of distinction is seen in the profu-

fences scattered, buildings injured or demolished
and crops seriously alfeczed.
The direction of the tornado seemed, to be
south and cast. lts-continuance was sliort.

in the sofa on which he was lying, being
