Can a Romish Priest be a true

This is an important question and one
which the circumstances of the times for-
ces’. upon the consideration of every well
wisber of the perpetuity of our liberties.

arated from among us by their profession
from the rest of the community, owing,
rasxisz-asserted, an allegiance to--3:foreign* '

Such a_ control over the political faith or
action of American citizens is inconsist-
ent with freedom, with the perpetuity of
our institutions, with the -existence of
salutary laws, with the right of choice
inherent in the very nature of our con-
stitution. -
Hence arises the question stated above
can such a class be true American citi-
zens? , Is the politicalloath of such men
to abjuretheir allegiance to every foreign
potentate consistent with their ecclesias-
tical oaths? If not, are they, really and
truly, American citizens?
The following is the canonical oath ta
ken by every prelate, translated into En-
glish : . ’
“L. P. P., from this time forward, will
be faithful and obedient to my lord, the
Pope, and his successons. The councils
with which they trust me; I will not dis-
cover to any man, to the injury of the
Pope and his successors. I will assist
them to retain and defend the Papedom
and the aornnrrns of Peter against all
men. I will carefully conserve, defend,
and promote the rights, honors, privi-
leges, and authority of the Pope. I will
not be in any council,,fact or treaty, in
which anything prejudicial to the person
rights, or power of the Pope is ‘contrived
and if I shall know ‘any such things I
will hinder them to the utmost of my
power, and with all possible speed, I
will signify them to the Pope. .To the
utmost of my power I will observe the
Pope’s commands, and make others ob-
serve them. I will impugn. and perse-
cute all heretics, and rebels to my lord,‘
the Pope.”
Prelates are bound to enforce the ob-
servance of the articles of this and simi-
The same
general principle extends to every eccle-
siastic of the Romish church. The oaths
which Jesuits take, go still further.—
We give an extract:
"By the virtue of the Keys'of binding
and loosing given to his Holiness by my
Savior. Jesus Christ, he hath power in
depose ./zeretical kings, princes, slates,
commonwealths, and governments, all
being illegal without his sacred confirma-
tion, aml that they may safely be dos.
troyed: therefore, to thc\utmost of my
power, I shall and will defend‘ this doc-
trine, and his Holiness’ rights and on:
toms against all usurpers of the heretical
authority whatsoever.”
Consider, in the next place, the na-
ture of the powers claimed by the Pope,
which these men are sworn to observe.
Innocent _III, who was the founder of
the Inquisition, writes :
“So hath Christ established the King-
dom aud priesthood in the Church that
the Kingdom is sacradotal, and the priest-
hood is kiugly; he has set one man over
the world, him whom he hath appointed
his Vicar on Earth, and as to Christ
is bent every in Heaven, in earth, and
under the earth, so shall obedience and
‘service be paicl to less Vicar by all, that
there be one fold, and one shepherd.”-
Gregory VII, la his.Apostles, says—"'1‘l1e
Romam Pontiff is by right 2miversal.——
In him alone it is the right to make laws
Let all the kings kiss the ‘feet of the
Pope. His name alone shall be heard in
the churches. It is the ONLY NAME IN
THE WORLD. It is his right to depose
kings. His sentence is notto be repea-
led by any one. It is to be repealed by
himself alone. He is to be judged by
none. The church of Rome has never
erred; and as the Scriptures" testify, it
shall never err.” ‘
The Bull of Sextus V, against Henry
IV of France, thus claims the suprema-
cy. , .
"The authority given to St. Peter and
his successors, by the immense power of_
Eternal King excels all the power of
earthly kings! It passes uncontrolable
sentence upon them ALL.”
‘ The Bull of Pope Pitts IV, agaius‘
Queen Elizabeth thus declares :-
"He that reigneth on high, to whom
all power is given in Heaven and earth,
hath committed the one Holy Catholic
Apostolic Church, out of which there is
no salvation, to one alone on earth ;--
namely to Peter, the prince of the Apos-
tles, and to the Roman Pontifl succes-
sor of St. Peter, to be governed by a
plenizure of power. This one he hath
constituted PRIN('JE over all nations, and
all kingdoms, that he might pluck up,
destroy, dissipate, overturn, plant and
build.” ‘
The above extracts, selected from ma-
ny others in an able communication to
the Troy Whig, Will serve to show what
has been the claim of the Romish church
to which these ecclcsiastics, who now
profess to be American citizens and who
control the elections of our country, have
sworn allegiance. e
Lat it not be said that these are old
claims and that the Church has altered
as the world has progressed. This elm;-oh
claims infallibility. There can be no
Change. The supreme control of the
Pope over the Prelates ; of the Prelates
over the Priests; of the latter over the
private members of the church, is as
much a doctrine of belief and practice as
ever. The individual votes as the priest
dictates; the priest follows the decree of
the prelate, and he so controls the elec.
tion as shall best serve. the interests of
the Pope, the establishment ofthe church
and its subsequent complete rule over
the country. The final extinction of the
heresy of Protestantism in free America,
by management of the ballot boz, is the
object of all ‘ranks from the Pope down-
ward.
Again we ask, are such more true
American citizens?

Nicely Caught—-The
, ‘ Dunkirk.
A few days since we published an ac- f
count of a robbery, by means of chlorof-
form, in Dunkirk, New York. A gen-_
tleman, named J. Tidd, entered a bar-
ber-shop kept by a colored -man by the

get ' _s'haVed.: The -scoulidrelly barber

of our city, Wednesday evening‘ got on
the track of-‘a color :1 man, whom he at
once suspected of being the barberof Dun-
kirk. Accompanied by Officer Horn, he
followed him up pretty closely during
the night, until finally about three o'cl’k
in the morning, they met face to face in
the cock-pit on G-ravier-'st., and entered
into conversation. The thief mistook

gus, (counterfeit) The Chief replied no
but he could get some, and enquired what
he wanted with it. He answered that
he wanted to attend the races, as there
was a fine chance to make cases, (dol-
lars.) _ i
From question to question the Chief
led him on, till be convinced the fellow
he Was a great leader‘ in the thieving
profession,"and finally wormed all his so-
crets out of him ; among others, the fact
that he was the Dunkirk barber, who
had robbed Mr. Tidd, by means of chlo-
roform. The fellow then wanted to en-
ter into partnership with the Chief. in the
profession, and proposed that coming the
sneak (hotel-thieving) would be the best
field for their exploits. James was to
go to the St. James Hotel, and register
himself as a gentleman from the north,
and the thief was to attend as his servant
which would remove all S11SplOI0l'1. To
this the Chief, of course, consented. ’
‘ The barber then told James that he
and some of his associates in the city had
a man “in their eye,” whom they inten-
ded to rob of $15,000, but he feared they
would have to crack, (kill him,) for he
did not believe they could frisk (way-
lay) him. After further conversation,
the Chief requested him to take a short
walk, when, getting to a proper place,
he showed his "cresceut,” and revealed“
his rank..- _
The scoundrel’: astonishment may be
better imagined than conceived ; but soon
recovering from his first surprise, he at-
tempted to draw, his knife; James’ pis-
tol was soon at his breast, however, and
he had to givej-fin. He then tried to
bribe the Chief and ‘Officer Horn. They
agreed to take the bribe, of all his money
and effects. To I-Iorn he gave a gold
watch worth $185, and on the Chief de-
manding all the money he could raise,
he gave him an order for $950 on a ban-
king house in Cincinnati, besides $90 he
had on his “person. But there is no re-
lying on the word of a police officer, for
no sooner had the money and effects been
placed in the Chief’»s hands, than he or-
dered poor John A. Hall, alias Jerry
Brown, to be locked up in the Parish pris-
on'_where.he now is in safety. The fel-
low is a likely looking darkey, with a
most villainous countenance.
Chief James and Officer Horn deserves
great credit for this arrest.

Union School N orwalk.
‘ We have,received a “Programme of
Rhetorical Exercises by‘ the students of
the Union School at the Town Hall,"
Feb. 21st, which should have been ear-
lier noticed. From private sources we
learn that the performances came olfin
due order, very much to the satisfaction
of a large audience and to the credit of
the principal of the school Mr. Brigham.
As some forty nine different pieces are
down—besides thirteen pieces of music,
it is evident that there was nolack of en-
tertainment, or hurry about getting home,
The school under the management of
Mr- Brigham aided by an» able corpse of
teachers seems to be equalling the hopes
of its most judicious friends who were
obliged to meet no ordinary oppositiolriu
securing the union of several districts,
the erection of a large and commodious
school house, and suitable ‘teachers.
There is one feature of this exhibition
which deserves criticism not because it
is peculiar to this school but because it
is much too common in similar cases, anh
is always an offence to good task. VVe
refbr to the names of some of the charac-
ters in dialogues. Take for example the
piece entitled “The School Committee,”
where the following names occur, “Mrs.”
“Vestry," "Brief,” “Pill” and “Squash,”
denoting respectfully the wife of a minis-
ter, lawyer, doctor and farmer. Else-
where are found “Deacon Homespun,”
“Farther Giles,” "Swipes the brewer,”
and “Currie the saddler." Such names
for such a purpose remind one, of theatr-
cient rude pictures under\vhi,cl1 was writ-
ten "This is a horse,” "This is a goat,”
&c., in order that no one might be at a
loss to know what animal the bungling
artist designed to represent. Such names
are as muclfout of place in the dialogues
fit to be used - at present as the uncient
slab-benches, and disfigured writing ta-
bles, would be in the new model union
school houses. Our juvenile friends can
in future no less safely dispense with
one than with otl1er.—-Nor«wz'c/L Ex.
l]§=' A murder wascommltlerl under
the madness of jealousy, at Cambridge,
Ind., recently. A Mr. Steer had been
paying his addresses to a young “grass
widow,” and it was rumored that they
were to be married. The husband liv-

affair, enlisted the services of a friend
and they attacked Steer, beat in his skull
with an axe, and to conceal the deed,
cut the body in pieces and packed it in a

Good! Welike to see our wide awake

article now going the rounds and call the
attention of our Springfield friends to the
name of the gentleman, “A Steer,-” to

and to the packing of the poor murdered
steer in n barrel——a circumstance which
often takes place when steers are struck
on the head by butchers !
A Horrible (Deed.--We have just
learned the particulars of one of. the most
horrible tragedies which has ever star-
tled the citizens of any community, and
we stop the press to give them to our
readers. It appears that a gentleman by
the name of A Steer had been paying his
addresses to a young grass widow, the
mother of two children, and tumor has
it that they were engaged to be marrlcd.
The husband, who resided in the neigh-
borhood, hearlug of this anticipated mar-
riage, became possessed with the raging
of jealousy, and immediately set about
concoctlng plans, with which to frustrate
it. He enlisted the assistance of anoth-
er person, and the two first. endeavored
to persuade Mr. Steer to drink with them;
failing in this,they became enraged, and
one of them, a Mr. Butcher, seized an
axe and dealt him several blows, fractu-
ring the skull and killed him instantly.
After the murder they endeavored to dis-
pose of the body by cutting it to pieces
and packing it in a barrel. This horri-
ribla deed was perpetrated about four
miles north of this place. As yet no ar-
rests have been made. A

The Mall Steamship Nashville, spe-
cially chartered by the Collins’ Company
for one trip to Liverpool, in place of the
Steamer Pacific, arrived at this Portfit '
about noon to-day, and brings the report
of her own arrival at Liverpool on the
3d inst., having made the passage out In

one of the passengers by the Nashville,
suddenly disappeared, and was supposed
to lreve thrown herself overboard.
The Conference adjourned till the 19th
to await the Russian ultimatum and the
arrival of French and Tiiflils-ll Ministers
of affairs at Vienna.
There had been-a succession of san-
guinary conflicts between the French
and Russians before Sebastopol, for pos-
session of the Rifle Ambuscade Pits,
with varying success, but much loss.
The latest battle, on the night of the
23d, put three thousand men bars ale cam-
bczt. VVe have no details.
Being Easter holidays, there is little
other news.
Latest.
General Weddel’s return as Prussian
Envoy to Paris has been countermanded
and Col. Olber, an attache of Prussia,
has also been recalled, indicating that
the negotiations were closed. .
All Pasha arrived at Vienna on Friday
and would take part in the future discus-
sion of the Conference. '
Another detachment of the Baltic fleet
bad sailed from Spithead,‘and the Fly-
ing Squadron had arrived out. -
It was confidently expected that the
question of peace or war would be deci-
ded at Vienna in the course of the week.
On the 18th, a reinforcement of fifteen
thousand men entered Sevastopol, and a
body of Russians, fifteen thousand strong
were observed to march iowards Mack-
enzie’s Farm, with the intention of cros-
sing the Schernado to advance upon
Baidar. '
Dr. Hall,‘ Inspector-General of the
Hospitals, reported to Lord Raglan that
there was no diminution of the sick, but
that the cases yielded more readily to
medicine.
General Conrobert.Telegrapbed on the
22d that the Russian Admiral Istomin
had been killed, and that the health of
the French troops was excellent.
General Conrobert states that in the
attack of the Russians on 22d and 23d
of March, they were driven back with
the loss of no less,than two thousand in
killed and wounded. The loss of the
Allies was about six hundred.
The official report of the . Russian
General Osten Sacken, in reference to
the same affair, states that the garrison
made a powerful sortie for the purpose
of putting a stop to the works of ap-
proach made by the Allies near the Ma-
lokolf Tower.
TheGeneral adds that the engagement
was favorable, inasmuch as he succeeded
in destroying the works executed by the
the French, not, however, without con-
siderable loss. ‘

The Great Iron Szea.mer,—-The great
iron steamer which is being built for the
Eastern Steamer Company of London,
is 620 feet long, or more than twice as
long as any steamer we have. Her
breadth is 83 feet, and her depth 58 feet.
This ship is intended for the long voy-
age to Australia, and the object in build-
ing her so large is that she may carry
coal sufficient to make the voyage with-
out stopping, and so avoid the delay and
the cost of taking in coals at foreign sta-
tions. Conls on the Indian and Austral-
ia route cost four or five times as much
as in England. ~
The vessel is being built keel parallel
to the river, her great length preventing
her being launched in anyotlrer than side
way. Her machinery is all to be. dupli-
cated, so that in the event of accident to
one set of machinery, the vessel will
have another set to drive her. She will
have screw or paddle engines with a
nominal power of 2600 horses. Her
whole tonagc amounts to 22,000 burden.
Whether she will succeed commercially
or not, is a problem yet to be solved.«--
The experiment excites a great deal of
interest in England,
0:?’ A New York paper says the
steamships for Europe are now crowded
with passengers; some to visit the Pa-
lais de Plndustrie, which is to open next
month at Paris ; some to make the tour-
of Europe, and some to visit the Crimea
to witness the grand tragic melo-dramat-
ic spectacle at Sebastopol. Steamers
take spectators from Marseilles to Bal
aklava for two hundred and fifty francs
each. '
U?’ Wheat is at the present time
worth in England about ten shillings a
bushel; and the same quality of wheat
can be bought in Russia for about two
shillings a bushel. So says Joseph Stur-
ge, who is_himself interested in the grain
trade. . If, as seems at present the prob-
ability, peace should be patched up Rus-
sia wheat would be poured into England
in quantities sufiicient to lower the pri-
ces very materially and probably react
upon the price of grainin this country.-—
Flour dealers should be very careful,
about these times.

A passenger on one of our railroads the
other day, when accosted for the amount
of his fare, replied that he had nothing
with him except one large bill, which
he feared the conductor would not be
able to change.-—The latrc-r, thinking
from the man’s general appearance, that
he could not be very flush, replied that
change would be given for any bill he
could produce, whereupon the suspicious
looking customer handed ‘out an enor-
mous show bill. The conductor, as in g
duty bound, politely presented lilm al
check, and affectionately enjoined upon 1
him to guard against all danger of per-I

somc are ignorant of the fact that it is :1 vio-
lation of our borough Law to fire guns within
its limits, and there is a Statute Law against
shooting birds at this season‘of the year. Wa-
cannot conceive of anything more mean and
wanton, than to see (as we have done the past
week) a grown up man shooting little robins
- and bluebirds for mere sport. Robbing hen
roosts is honorable compared to it.

for the protection of the Oyster beds laid
down by the Norwalk Oyster Company, this

too bad that after the proper Commissioners
have laid out their grounds, to have them
plundered by a set of irresponsible men,
whose wort-hlessness in the commmunity ex-
'empts them from any effective legal restric-

meeting with a large sale throughout the Un-

Illustrated,” "China and India,” and '“Thri1-
ling Incidents in the Wars of the United
States,” are in every way equal to the other
works in point of attraction and interest.-
What he wishes to obtain is competent agents
in every section of the country. The readi-
ness of their sale offers great inducements for
persons to embark in their disposal, and as
they are of a high moral and uncxceptionablc
cliaractcr, there are none but who can consci-

Opr New York correspondence.
New Yomr, April 20th, 1855:
Presidential candidates sgpm to multi-
ply like Fall-staff's men in buckram, the
newest in the sequence (although. the
eldestin years) being Commodore Van
derbilt of New York. Probably he was
nominated by the Jerseymen as an 011'-
set to Geo. Law. Steam versus Steam.
It has generally been supposed that Com-
modore Stockton was all in all with the
Jersey Blues, but it seems that his nose
has been put out of joint by our Commo-
dore. As regards Commodore Vander-
bilt's qualifications as a Statesman, his-
tory is silent, but it cannot be denied
that he established the Staten Island
Ferries, held them as a close monopoly
for years and then sold them out to Mr.
Law and others for $600,000. From
this circumstance probably, be derived
his title of Commodore. That he
understands the Constitution as well
as Daniel Webster did, would per-
haps be saying too much-—-but it is cer-
tain that he is worth over five millions
of dollars and that after William 13. Ar-
tor and-Stephen Whitney, he passes for
the richest man in New York. The
two Steam candidates Law and Vander-
bilt, may be considered on a par in most
respects except wealth. In that very
essential element of popularity, the
Commodore is believed to have the ad-
vantage of his rival by about $3,000,000
It is proper that the fact should be wide-
ly known, as it may serve to fix‘ the de-
terminatron of wavercrs who are now
hesitating "which of the two to choose.” 1
It appears that.our legislators, collfll-l
