Lately they had a most exciting contest for school directors, in whieh tho Catholic candidates ; were all defeated. A few day ago, David T. Snei. bakkr, the Mayor of the city, forbid a Protestant street-preacher from holding forth on the Sabbath, on the plea that his sermon against the Catholics had the tendency of inciting to riot' This preacher, however, disregarded the warning, and the very Sunday which he was forbidden to speak bemoun ted upon the head of a barrel in the midslof the market space, and was speaking to a crowd of abont a hundred persons, when the Mayor; atten ded by the regular police and a large body of spe cial officers, appeared upon the ground and obli ged him to desist. ' This was In the morning. In the afternoon of the same day a great Catholic procession, numbering from five to ten thousand men, with badges, flags, banners, and a large num ber of bands of music, marched through the streets to lay the corner stone of a Catholic church The Catholic church bells were rung during the whole time, the brass bands, comprehending nearly all in the city, were playing, and the procession marcb through half the town, blocking up the streets, making an ostentatious parade, which created a great deal of excitement, sufficient to render some of the street impassable to church going people, and to disturb the stillness of the Sabbath.; The Mayor had out a Urge police force to protect the procession. ; These circumstances led to the hold ing of a large public meeting, which "denounced tbo conduct of the Mayor, and led to the appoint ment of acommlttee efa hundred Citizens to wait upon binaand request his immediate resignation. The object of the Mayor appears to haw been to prevent a riot on the occasion of the Catholic pro cession, but, In doing so, ho baa thoroughly aroused tbo Protestant population-, and added fuel to a re ligion f excitement which was already very deep and blttorArr?y - V THE POPE AND HIS POLICT. , 1 We.' learn ,'from" a very intelligent gentleman who has' means of information on the subject which we bave not, that a change in the policy of the rope more in accordance witb the policy or tb age tbao that which h has recently pursued, Is rumored . in loma of the diplomatio circlet of Southern Europe.1 It is stated that he has recent ly made his conA-ssor and companion a Cardinal This man professes liberal -views.; ;H I a Capo chW, and U reputed to poucss much talent. has been long opposed to Autonelll and other of tbo retrocrado faction In the Sacred College.- it Is believed that bis Holiness will soon make him prime minister, la ibis case, a new cabiaot will bo chosen, and a more liberal course will be pur sued.'

Morning Mails f- ' , SLAVERY IK KENTUCKY. . t A Kentucky paper expresses its perfect convic-. tlon that ir the negro slaves of Kentucky could vote upbn emancipation, connected, as It must of necessity bo, with their removal from the Sute.a large majority would vote against being emancipa ted. It aaya : - We know an iinstance where number of family servants amounting to"; forty, were called together by the master and mistress, and their freedom tendered to them on condition that tbey would emigrate to Liberia.. The slaves requested tirao to deliberate, and when it was granted, tbey fixed a time for reporting the result Of their deUberationfi -aad at tbo appointed time unanimously refuscu tho OS" r. EveryiuCcaient that couid be offered by, the masier ftBu Wstrcss was tendered, but tbey would not accept the offer; Nor is this by any means a solitary -caso. Tbe freemen of Kentucky are not more devoted tq the soil of the State than the slaves are'and there Is a strength of affection between tbo parties that would be incredible ,to those who look at it from abroad." -J " v f$V'.? W". ,.. : The same may b- said of Virginia, where slaves Often decline' freedom and removal to another State." "As a general thins, no class of servants in tho world is as kindly treated as Virginiit slaves; There are cases of course, of harsh and cruel mas ters, just as we will find in the . world cruel pa-. rents, school teachers, masters of vessels, See., but m.' 1 " ' - '- ' , - ' tbey are few lo number and exceptions to the gen eral rule. -If 'the peculiar institution imposes "bur thens too heavy to be borne" on any class It is certainly not on the blacks. ; Methodist , Action Against Slavery, Ac. . BorroK, May '2d. The Methodist conference at Ipswich to-day adopted a series of resolutions strongly .against slavery, and against -admitting any more slaveholders into the churoh. Also, for mending the di&cipline so as to prohibit the re ception of slave-holders into communion of the Methodist Episcopal church. The conference al so adopted the Maine liquor law, and resolved to send five dclerates to the World's Tempers nee Convention. -,. v J-? , STRIKES AMONdJTHE PRINTERS. New Yona, Msy 2d.

Out of 50 passenger and tbe crew only 22 were saved, Deluding Captain Wright, tbe mate and purser. When tbe fire was discovered tho boat was It miles from the shore. ' Her upper deck was con sumed in fifteen minutes. The hull drifted off to the shore and sunk in two. hours. : "Those saved were picked op by vessels passing at the time. The boat was owned by the Northern Railroad Company at Ogdensbuig, and waa fully insured. . New OairuN, April 26. We counted yesterday sixty-seven vessel of various calibre . in the New Basin.- Some of them were of large "size two or three hundred tons. " This fact may1; giro some idea of the trade which is carried on between this city and the Lake and the Florida' coasts. The Basin ahd Canal are scarcely capable of contaiii ing all the' vessels that come Into - them.' The high price of lumber baa given a greats Impulse to this trade and. the inexhaustible resources of our Southern coasts are yfelding rich profits to all who arc ertjsjed ia tbe lumber business. : a -; r -, : ..i ei.ort, i... ... . c t ; i I', all ."
