region of any Beirt, seem to be inseparable, we
jaay bepotoe slaves to both political and clerical ty
tantiy, through a false tenderness in regard to
the religious opinions of others. I ; This matter will
appear in a plainer liht by the . following extract
which ijs taken from the Boston J'Hot of Oct. 19,
1841, one of the leading Catholie Journals of this
countrv, fpcakin of the Presidential election,
itsavl to its Catholic friends: "We recommend
to you no party we , condemn no candidate but
Jotie, oiiil he is Theodore Fretlinghnyten. We
have nathznyr to say to him aa a, Whig j we have
nothing to say to Mr. Clay, nor to any Whig as
such; but to the President of the American
Hoard of Foreign Missions, the friend and patron
of the K r' cfc Cox's, we have much to eay. We
hate hi intolerance we dislike his associates,
and wet shudder, At the blackness of that school of
sectarians to Nrhlch he belongs, and amongst
whom Ic ,. is regarded as a leader and chief."
Were it necessary,,! could tate;tnarty 'other ex
tracts from this paper, all of which would chime
in mosti beautifully with the above, and prove
most coticlufively,1 that the aforesaid Pilot was
vui u iuitia( ui iuo ;Aimu-ii vunwi-
Church) ; but also a very zealoui advocate of the
doctrines of the Democratic party, as were the
Freeman'ff Journal, and all other Catholic papers
ithen published in the U. S. What can be more
jjcpuitial or insidious than the Pilot's attack on
jMr. Freeiinghuysen, and its open expression of
aversion to turn on sectarian grounds, whicn, ac
cording! the views of our opponents, should
never be mentioned in political discussions no,

j I repeat, when I read this jitter and many
j other articles that were published in the Catholic

for tlcf future, and the alarms then created have
been incrcasinvcr since. Nevertheless kr
ore tht$c in our ccuntry who seem to entertain no

giihsi any attack against a man's religion, as il

Kbcnlity a w defend tho I'opcj thereby serving

demanding an equivalent for all Bank charters.
But in lieu of this; 1 would prefer in all such en
actments a discrimination in-favor of the holders
ot Railroad stock. As a substitute for, the old
Banks, so frequently referred to, whose stockhol
ders for more than tifty yoars have been accumu
laiing fortunes from the productive capital, with
out adding a penny to the aggregate' wealth of the
State, 1 Would have Banking privileces conferred
al of 82,bbUf0lU, and with its principal business
ihuuijiton, could have supplied the increasing
warn? ol that eiHei iriinr citv : and the latter.
with a cH4ralot $4,UOU,000, occupying the line
ol the Nurth Carolina Kail Road, would be equal,
for u while, at least, to the demands for Bank ac
coiuuialations fruui Beaufort to Charlotte. With
proper guards to prevent too great and sudden an
luerease ot lsank paper,' these could have, been
gradually made to supplant the old Banks ; as the
latter withdrew their notes from circulation, the
former could have filled the vacuum and supplied
the growing demands of trade, and with judicious
management and hunetst purposes the two could
have been worked in beautiful harmony, avoiding
me eu preuicuonii auu aissipating tne iears of
those who apprehended a-general pressure from a
i-udaen diminished circulation. And though con-
uccled with the railroad companies, they should
form btparaie und distinct corporations, and be un-dt-r

The vantage ground from which 'to command
all there results, and put fully into operation this
scheme in all its parts, was partially lost by the
legislation of last winter. But an inviting field
still spreads out before us, and if the people will
but seize the opportunity and force to their aid
an engine that has often enlarged the commerce

P. S. I beg to add, in support of the forego
ing argument, the following paragraphs, ent from
newspapers of recent date, to wit :
" The Bank of Wadebborough has declared a
dividend of 5 percent, for the pasLsix mouths
tnA I !.o k...l k -
uuu tv uui?, wsiuva, iucu aoie to carry near a lie

"The Annual Report of the President of the
Commercial Bank showed a highly pi ohtable year's
business ; the Bank having declared two semi an
nual dividends of 5 per cent. each. 1 he coiitin
gent fund, including the.profits of the last three
months, are nov equal to22i per cent, uett."
H iV. Her.
Thus it will be seen, that while the communi
ty is oppressed, the Banks flourish. Iast year
the profits of the Commercial Bank were 18 per
cent ; and ibis year it divides 10 per cent., a
mong the stockholders, and increases its reserved
! fund to 22 1 per cent. The Wadesborough Bank
has made, for the last 6 months, at the rate of Hi
?r cent,'pcr annum, upon its capital, clear of all
expenses. It the liauks sought to be created do

in a verJ soon time, to nu herselt of debt, and
reauce tne taxes to the old standard.

Matt. K. Manly.
A decision of mine in Jackson county has been
made the subject of denunciation by a State Con
vention pf the Universalis! denomination of Chris
tians in Bamson county. Public censure coming
from so respectable a source requires of mo to
make a statement of the facts ; which are netes
sary to enable the public to judge righfly.
except the form of affirmation provided for -
Quakers, Menonists and Dunkards, there are only

utuluB1,c tesuiuony m ortu Carolina. An
oath on the Holy Gospels, and (for those who
have scruples of conscience about swearing,) an
appeal t6 God with uplifted hand. Thesefbrms
may be seen by refereneo to the Be vised Stat
utes in th beginning of the chapter on the sub
ject of oaths.
The witness in question, when offered, declin
ed taking an oath upon the Holly Gospels in the
usual form, on the ground of conscientious hci.u
pies; and the clerk was about to swear him in
the alternative form prescribed by the act oi As
senibly when it was objected that he did not be

I am .iWi.re there are conflicting decisions in
other Stales ; and in our own rotate circuit deci
sions have been made bth wuu recently on this
point. But the professional understanding has
been generally in unison with my opinion. And
the provisions made by our Legislature for rjuali
fying witnesses to give testimony, manifestly re
cognize punishment of the sin of perjury in a fu
ture state as a necessary belief The lessons
given by Judges and others to untnstfucted and
iguorant persons, in every case which has fallen
under my observation, have had for their burthen
this dogma of punishment hereafter. And the
elementary writers make belief in a f uture state
of rewards and punishments necessary to compe
tency. There have been indeed, somo recent ex
positions of the phrase ' future ttnte of rexcarth
ami pvmlimnitg" which restricts the pum'sh-nn-nt
meant, to twings of conscience in this world.
But they are not authoritative, and do not strike
iue as consistent with any sound exegesis of the
phrase, or of the principles involved.
in view of these things, if my fellow citizens of
the Sampson (.nivcutiou will rellcct upon them,
it seems to me they will Lud reasons for my judg
ment, which it not convincing, will at least satis
fy them that it might have arisen from the doubt
fulness of the ouestion. and not from any such in
tolerance and depravity of heart us would lead me
to commit a flagrant outrage" upon the rights
of citizens, and an act " unconstitutional and ini
