POLITICAL WISDOM.
For political wisdom wear., of course, to look to
the assembled wisdom of, the Nation in the Halls
of Congress, and when an lodor of morality Is
combined with political tactics, the lessons be
come very edify ing.
We are incited to these reflections from some
rcniarks lately made in the House of Representa
tives, by a mcmbur, relative to the Mormons, no
ting the fact that one of those deciples. the lead
er, perhaps, had forty wives. The Statesman
saw nothing wrong in this, as a subject of inter
ference, because the sect called 8hakers live
without having spy wives st all, and tescb the
practice of celibacy.
We are surprised that the gentleman did not
see the vast difference between a neglect of an in
junction and abstinence from a privilege, and a
violation of a positive commandment. In the one
case there is no special requirement, so far as in.
dividuals are concerned, while in the other the
commandment admits of no evasion. This is
the case, so far the religion of Protestant Conn
try, as this is, is concerned. But this practice ot
a plurality of wives, is adultery by the common
law, as well as the statute laws of all tbe States of
the Union. Celibacy may const it ne a rule of or
der, in Christian communities of the true faith,
as in the case of the Roman Catholic Clergy and
the Shakers, but plurality of wives, or rather
adultery, never. No man can be a Christian who
is the husband of more thsn one wife for any
people to profess otherwise carries a fals hood
.ii the face of the profession, too glaring for
any other sentiments but deteststion snd scorn.
By a like privilege number of persons in any
ton or county in tbe country could set them
elves a part, and erect a community of whore
mongers and adulterers, under pretence of a relig
ions faith. ---t-
The Mormaa Iaiqulty is calculated to revolu
tionize the wbolo country to render inapplicable
all the operations of law in regard tooursocial sys
tem, and destroy the moral Government of God.
It the General Government has not the power to
put down the horrible Morraan system, the peo
ple shenld demand an alteration of the Constitu
tion to ensure such a result. We think it has the
power now; but if the wisdom of tbe Nation
thinks not, any remark from us ould be idle.
We would a thousand times prefer a community
of Turks for they believe the teachings of their
Prophet, a ad would be sincere and honest. But
these Mormons bave institued a system prompted
by liceatious passion, and a desecration of tbe
principles upon which alone society can exist and
preserve the social virtues. They are more like
a Congregation of Beasts., than a Society of meo
and women.
THE CATHOLICS IN THE UNITED STATES.
From the "Metropolitan Catholic Almanac and
Laity's Directory, for 1854," published in Balti
more, we derive some important facts relative to
the progress of Catholicism in the United States.
The entire Catholic population of the United
States, is said to be 1,632.600, in tho jurisdiction
of various arch-diocesscs, as follows: Baltimore,
77 500; New York, 425,000; New Orleans. 222,500;
Cincinnati!, 332,500; Oregon, 5000 ; San Francisco,
75,000; Nebraska, Ac, (Apostolic Vicar) 6,300.
In these arch-diocesses, there are 41 diocesses,
1712 churches, 746 other stations, 1422 clergy
men in ministry, 182 clergymen otherwise em
ployed, 84 ecclesiastical institutions, 45 literary
institutions for young men, 171 female religious
institutions, 112 female academies, 131 charitable
institutions The total of tbe Catholic popnla
tiou is supposed to be understated, as the returns
of many districts were incomplete. During 1853,
there was an increase of 9 discesses, 1 archbishop,
5 bishops, 113 priests, and 167 churches. The
number of colleges in the United States, under
Catholic direction, is 24, and the theological
seminaries number 29. with 4 preparatory sem
inaries. There are also 24 periodicals publUhed
in the United States, devoted to the spread of Ca
tholicism, 20 of which are weekly issues.
Apropos of the growth of Catholicism, we find
in tbe last number of the London Times, an arti
cle devoted to tbe increase of "Papacy," in which
that paper mskes It appear by official report, tha,
the whole number of Catholics in England and
Wales, is less than 200,000. It says :
It appears that shortly after the expnkion ot
the Stuarts, tbe number of Papists in England and
Wales was computed at 27,696. In 1767 another
return was procured, and here the calculation
gave 67,916, which figures, thirteen years later,
were increased to 69 376. These seem to have
been all the data brought before the compilers of
the report for past years. At present, the actnsl
number of 'sittings in Popish places of worship,
(after adding an estimate for those making no re
turns) is 186,111. Now, if we tike into considers
tion tbe essentially un-English character of these
communities in general, and the extent (e which
the congregations are filled either with Irishmen
or with foreigners from tbe various continental
States, we may very safely put 150,000 as the
sum total of tbe sittings required for : bona fide
English Papists; nor should we, indeed, have ranch
hesitation in reducing even this amount by fully
one-third.

Tbe following are known to be opposed to it. .

Cooper (whig) of Pennsylvania.
The other eleven may alle more or less doubt
ful. We however infer that Mr. Clayton would
rowdily vote for the bill, as bis principal objection
have been removed by amendments adopted since
his speech.
The bill as it passed to be engresscd, will be
much less objectionable to the North than it was
originally. The paragraph relating to slavery and
the Missouri Compromise, as amended stands
thus :
"That the Constitution and all laws of the Uni
ted States which arc not locally inapplicable, shall
have the same force and effect within the said
Territory of Nebraska as elsewhere within the
United States, except the 8th section of the act
preparatory to the admission of Missouri into the
Union, approved March 6, 1820 ; which being in
consistent with the principle of non-intervention
by Congress with slavery in the States and Terri
tories, as recognized by the legislation of 1850
commonly caiiea me compromise measure, is
hereby declared to be inoperative and void ; if
being Ike tr'ie intent and meaning ef this act not
to legislate slavery into any Territory or State,
nor to exclude it therefrom, but to leave the people
thereof perfectly free to form and regulate their
domestic institutions in their own way, subject on
ly to the Constitution of the United States. Pro
vided, that nothing contained in this act shall be
construed to revive or put in force any law dr
regulation which may have existed prior to the
act of the 6th March, 1820. either protecting,
establishing, or abolishing Slavery.
The Proviso at the close was moved by Mr.
Barler, of North Carolina, shortly before the vote
was taken on the engrossment, and was carried
by a vote of 35 to 6, the nays being from the
South. It effectually guards the bill against the
presumption in favor of slavery, which might
otherwise have been inferred from its legal exist
ence in the territory prior to its purchase by the
United States, under the Loasiana Treaty
THE EMPRESS OF FRANCE A WOMAN.
Of coarse she is a woman, bat we mean she
has a true woman's heart. It will be recollected
that a woman in male attire was discovered at
work on one of tbe railroads in France, for the
purpose of supporting a sick husband and four
children. Tbe Empress, en learning the circum
stance, Immediately requested to bo accurately
informed of the details of tho affair, and , subse
quently ordered the following letter to be address
ed to tbe poor woman : Madame The Empress
has read with peculiar interest the recital of tbe
pious fraud which you made use of to support
your sick husband and feed, your poor children.
Deeply affected at this recital, her majesty im
mediately conceived tbe idea of offering to take
under her charge two of your children, and has
ordered me to come to an understanding to that
effect with lbe Prefect of the Drome. Tbe Em
press is not ignorant that there, are virtues for
which tbe exalted of the earth can find no re
ward, but she desires to give yon a proof of tbe
sentiments with which your conduct has inspired
her; she wishes, Madame, that yon should know
that her personal sympathy is- acquired to the
devoted wife and to the courageous mother of a
family. The poor woman, whose name Is Heb
shen, having selected her eldest girl ana eldest
boy to be placed under tbe patronage of the Em
press, suitable arrangements have been made for
the accomplishment of her Majesty's philanthrop
ic intentions. J

DEATH OFTHJB CONTICT.
,. j, , . i a-. r . r . f.;s
Wasxuvotok March 8. Quite unexpectedly to
every body, the jury fa the case of George A.
Gardiner, thia morning entered tbe cowt room a- I
bout half past eteyeno'cofck with a tcrdkt. .TLbe Parkersburg, Vsw Gazette, of the 14th of
prisoner was seated in the court room, and as the
jury took their places he peered scrutinizlagly in
to their faces, as if to elicit one favorable indica
tion. Disappointed In this, a death-like paleness
spread over his features ; mortification and despair
appeared to paralyse his" whole system. The ver
dict was gmlHy.
After the verdict was announced, Mr. Banfley,
one of the' counsel for the defence, statedjthat the
counsel had prepared to file a bill of exceptions,
and they would prefer to have judgment pro
nounced immediately.
Dr. George A. Gardiner was then called upon to
stand up and receive the sentence of tbe law ;
which Judge Crawford pronunced as follows:
"You have been convicted by a jury of your
country of the crime of false swearing, touching
the expenditure of public money, and in support
of x claim against the United States. Perjury, in
its nature and general sense, strikes at the root of
all the securities which society is bound to extend
to and maintain around, the citizen. The particu
lar offence charged upon yon, and upon which
th jury have passed, whether considered in re
ference to the complicated plot by which its ob
jects were consummated, or to the amount of
money obtained from the Treasury on the award
of the commisssoners appointed to decide upon the
claims under the treaty with Mexico of February,
1848, is one of unusual enormity.
"To address such observation, as must seem to
every man who knows the circumstances that sur
rounded you, to a person of your conceeded ability
it would be useless or vain unless, if they have
arisen in your own mind ; vain, if they have not.
From your fate others should learn, that no plan,
however remote its origin, with whatever forecast
laid, however stealthily or adroitly pursued for
years, and at length executed, or with whatever
success for a time attended, can be so cunningly
devised as to escape detection. The unexampled
ingenuity, or the net-work spread out on this
trial, and the fact that it has been exposed at tbe
last stage, ought not to fail of a beneficial effect in
convincing all men that if they will trample on
laws, human and divine, they shall suffer for it.
The sentence of the Court is, that you suffer in
the penitentiary for the-District of. Columba im
prisonment and labor for the period of ten years.1'
After the sentence was pronounced the prisoner
was taken to the jail in custody of the proper offi
cer.
Mr. Bradley, tbe prisoner's counsel, was pre
sent and, having been seated, some conversation
took place between them. Gardiner then took a
glass of water and signified his readiness to go to
jail. Mr. Smith, the warden of the jail, and Mr.
Wilson, bailiff of the court, then accompainied
him over. In entering the guard room, Mr. Gar
diner took a chair, and in about five minutes was
seized with a severe fit, and fell to the ground,
cutting his head. Physicians were soon sent for,
and he soon recovered. Several fits in quick
succession followed. He was cupped, and every
remedy used without effect. During these suf
ferings Gardiner called Mr. Bradley to his side,
told him he was dying, and that he died innocent.
Gardiner died about three o'clock. This melan
choly occurrence has shocked our citisens, and as
this is closed we are waiting for Coroner Wood
ward to convene a jury of inquest, and tbe physi
cians are preparing to hold a post-mortem axami-
nation on the body.
The court, after sentencing Gardiner, adjourned
until Monday next, when it commences a new
term, and the spectators present cleared out. No
more than half an hour elapsed between the ap
pearance of the jury in the court and the final
closing of the scene. Gardiner's counsel had filed
a bill of exception before the District Court. Mt
fSECOND DISPATCH.
Particular ofQardlner's Dylug Hours.
The Jury ef Inquest No Evidence as yet of
the Poisoning Post-Mortem Examination
to be Hade.
Washington, March 3. 10 o'clock, P. M. It
appears that this morning Gardiner knew that the
jury had stood ten opposed to him and two in fa
vor of him ; but their subsequent delay created
high hopes in him of final and continued disa
greement. He was cheerful, and having dressed
himself neatly and handsome, proceeded to the
court room. The first emotion he has ever
evinced during the trial was when the jury came
into the guard room. He then took a chair, drew
up to the table, and took out of bis pocket the let
ters which he destroyed. He then wrote a letter",
put it in his pocket, and commenced another, fell
back, cutting the side of his head against the
desk.
Gardiner immediately called for water and then
for brandy. There being none, be drew from his
pocket a quarter dollar, and Dr. Birch sent a mes
senger for tome. On the return of the messenger,
Gardiner reviving, refused the brandy. He then
gave his brother the letters, and others the con
tents of his pockets. Shortly after convulsions
commenced. Gardiner and his brother wished no
physician, becanwj, as they stated, he was sub
ject to convulsions. Several physicians came,
however, and used every means for bis relief, but
without avail.
Tbe jury of inquest examined several witnesses
in the presence of tbe District Attorney and tbe
counsel on both sides; but there was no evidence
that he poisoned himself, as had been generally
supposed.
The inquest adjourned until to-morrow morn
ing, when a post mortem examination will be
hld. The public opinion is at this time very con
fident that he poisoned himself. Crowds sur
rounded the jail until dark, and there is consi
derable excitement on every hand.
nis counsel's exceptions to the bill were con
tained in twenty-nine counts. The general opin
ion is that the Circuit Court would have granted
a new trial.
Whilst the jury of inquest was sitting, Patrick
Coins was committed by Squire Drury, on the
charge of firing a bouse in tbe first ward. Offi
cers Allen and Keese arrested Jas. Levis for
a ho 4iog Tho. Hurley in the face, on English
Hill. Magistrate Goddard committed binT for tri

NATURE OF THE CHOLERA POISON.
Mr. Simon, the Medical Officer of Health for
the city of London, has recently published his
annual report, which contains many facta in re
gard to the nature of tbe cholera poison. In re
lation to the operation of the disease, the report
speaks aa follows:
"That which seems to have come to na from

; .S SHOCKING AFFAIR
February, says one of the most Unhappy circum
stances which has ever come to our notice, occur
red on Bond's creek in Ritchie county, on the
evening of Tuesday, 1 4th nit, which resulted Jn
the death or a man by tbe name of John S. Mill
hone by the hand of his own father-in law. It
was brought about by a family difficulty, the facts
of which, as near as we can obtain them, are as
follows:
Sometime since. Millhone, who is married to a
daughter of Mr. Richard Ankrum, by whom he
was killed, went to tho east to purchase goods,
and while there courted a woman and promised
to marry her. After bis return home, the woman
wrote to him, pressing the fulfilment of his pro
mise; which letter, coming into his wife's posses
sion, caused her to leave bis houe, with her
children, and remove to the home of her father.
This greatly exasperated Millhone who swore ven
geance agsinst both his wife snd her mother,
which he several times endeavored lo execut".
On one occasion, a short time before his death,
he assaulLd and best Mrs. Aukrum, his mother-
in-law, and injured her so as to confine her to her
bed. On the evening of his death, he went to
tbe bouse of Mr. Ankrnm. and Vbile there a f
quarrel was raised between himself and his wifo.
when he struck her to tbe floor with his fist, and
otbeiwise misused her. Mr. Ankrum then inter
fered, and several blows were interchanged,
which ended In Mr. Ankrum stabbing Millhone
to the heart, causing death almost instantly. A
coroner's jury was ctlled, which returned a ver
dict of "justifiable homicide." On the following
day Mr. Ankrum delivered himself up to the au
thorities, and was released on bail, to appear be
fore an examining court, to be held at Harrisvjlle
on Wednesday lat. The dccMon of tho court
has net at this time been received by us.
REPRESENTATIVES FROM NEBRASKA.
A number of Indians, chief from Nebraska, have
arrived at Washington, in charge of Major Gate
wood. They are said to be tall, good looking In
dians, of light complexion, and respectability dress
ed, according to the red man's idea, some wearing
red, some blue, and other colored blankets, heavy
ear-bobs, head dresses, necklaces of the claws of
the claws of the grizzly bear, and such like adorn"
tnents. Like some of our white ladies, they also
use paint. Their visit to Washington is at the in
stance of the government to see about the sale of
their lands to the United States, which, w hen the
tribes were first visited in Nebraska by the Com
missioner last summer, they were averse to doing.
It may be that they will be able to give Congress
some light upon the "Nebraska Question," w hich
is exciting so much debate. Among the Indians
west of Missouri and Iowa are to ho found some
educated men, and others who are able by the
cultivation of the soil to subsist themselves. A
mong them, too, are some professors of religion.
But the mass of the Indian tribes are indolent and
intemperate, which suggests the idea of colonizing
them under some one government, and teaching
them the arts of peace. The names of the newly
arrived "representatives" are as follows.
Otto Chiefs. Buffalo Chief ; Kec-ca-poo ; Big
Soldier. Medicine House. Interpreter, Lewis
Barnard.
Missouri Chief Missouri Chief; Ak-ke-tah
White Water. Interpreter, Lewis Barnard.
Omahah Chiefs. Logan Fontanel la ; Joseph La
flesh ; Village- Maker. Standing Kaw k ; Lrttle
Chief ; Wo-wo-kecga ; Yellow Smoke. Interpre
ter Lewis Sonisee.
The "distinguished visiters" had a formal inter
views Thursday with the ComuiisHouer of Indian
Affairs, in the presence of a number of ladies and
gentleman. Several of the Chiefs responded,
through an interpreter, to an address of the Com
musioners, expressing their satisfaction afely
reaching Washington, their desire to settle their
Dusincss to tue satisfaction oi an hands, and pro
mising to adhere to the dress of the whites. The
Star says:
"Medicine House," also spoke, attributing to the
President ffle fine state of the I0112 road thev had
traveled to Washington, said his power must be
like that of the Supreme Being. This last men
tioned chief made a very amusing and intelligent
speech.
The Big Soldier, an Otto, also made a speech
saying that all the whites they had met on the road
had conferred favors on them, as far as possible
One of the Missouri chiefs who spoke is 85 years
of age, and has been in Washington before.
' Mr. Logan Fontanella, the head chief of the Onio
has, a half-breed, is evidently as civilised as sny
half breed of any tribe heretofore coming to
Washington. Indeed, he is essentially a white in
appearance, manners, and tbe attainments of
civilization. In his speech, he complained that
his tribe was being cooped up by the white settle
ments. THE BUCCANEERS L LOWER CALIFORNIA.
The United States sloop-of-war Portsmouth
was expected to sail from San Francisco on the
2d inst., accompanied by a U. States mail stea
mer, on a cruise along the coast of Lower Cali
fornia, to arrest, as far as tbe power of the Gene
ral Government ean be exercised, any violation of
the integrity of the Mexican territory by men
claiming to be American citizens.
Accounts from Ensenda to tbe 17th of January
state that the freebooters remained in their camp
there, apparently waiting for reinforcements,
which they were not likely to receive, The news
of tbe orders of the Government had not arrived.
A number of fillibustcrs bad deserted and arrived
at San Diego. They say that the liberators re
ceive but one biscuit a day, and the supply, even
at that rate, is fast diminishing, and they would
soon be compelled to purchase or take lire stock
or to import provisions. President Walker has
issued a decree constituting Sonora a part of his
dominion. The fillibustcrs have been busy break
ing wild horses, drying beef, and making other
preparations for a march across toward Sonora.
Their departure from Eneenada, it is said, will be
hastened by the announcement that the Ports
mouth will soon be after them. The latest and.
apparently most reliable accounts state that they
take the property of the rancheros in the neigh
borhood, and the pay is Sonora scrip. A San
Diego Herald, extra, contains various proclama
tions of the self-styled Presidenl Walker, in which
Sonora is declared a part of the new Republic.

. -t "r- HORRIBLE EVENT. v "
r Tfie citizen residing In the .aeighborhooarof
Masonic Hall were startled yesterday morning hy
the rumor that Mrs. Cooper, wife of the Janitor of
Masonic Hall, had attempted to murder her
daughter and then destroy herself. . On examina
tion the rumor was found to be but too well foun
ded in fact.
Mr. Cooper and family reside, in the rear of
Masonic Hall. For some weeks past Mrs Coop
er has been affected with an apprehension that
there was a conspiracy to kill her, and so fully
had the idea taken possession of her, that she.
became incapable of at tending" to -the Various
household duties.
Yesterday morning Mrs. C. brought the axe
used for cutting wood for the Hall into the honset
and during the absence of Mr. Cooper, who was
called ont on business, she locfeed one of the
doors in the kitchen and then attacked her daugh
ter, a young woman of about 20 years of age,
with the axe. The latter warded thn full force
of the brow off, bnt a frightful wound was never
theless inflicted on her temple. She ttrnggled
with her mother, but to no avail, as the mother
had bcemc frantic.
The daughter sprang to the door which had
been locked, closely followed by her mother.
Her situation thrn became desperate, but by good
f:,r(v.Dc. ar.otLcr door leading to the alley was
unlocked, throngh which she ran screaming to
Fifth strict. Mr. Cooper heariug the alarm ran
nto the house, just as his wife had ii.flictetl a
terrible gabh with a razor across her throat.
Medical as.-istanco was immediately called in.
but wo understand the injury will prove mortal
though she was still alive hist evening. All the
veins and arteries are severed, except the jugular
vein, which is untouched.
The Jjurnal of yesterday states: The recent
washing up of tho South Carolina Road and the

Terrible Explosion and VrlgUiful Loss of
Lite.
HiRTroBD, March 2 At two o'clock to-day the
new steam boiler in Fales & Gray's factory ex
ploded, destroying the b!nckmith shop and en
gine room, and tiariiy tliaucripg 1 tie main ouiiii-
ing. O'er 100 persons wepc in that part of the
building. The explosion was terrific, wrenching
the powerful machinery, breaking the timbers
and prostrating the walls and roof. The work
men were buried beneath the ruins. The citizens
were quickly 00 the spot to rescue the sufferers
nine of whom were instantly killed, and seven
bave inco died. Many others are badly injured,
some of whom will die. Tho boiler was a uew
one of 60 horse power, and bnilt in the best man
ner. Over three hundred persons were employed
in the whole building, and those killed were chief
ly employed in the blackmith shop.
The scene was heart-rending-. Hundreds of the
wives and children of the workmen rushed to the
spot, venting their grief in tears and piteous cries
The excitement spread to the schools in the South
District, attended by the children of the work
men, who were at once dismissed in consequence
of their distress. The victims were mutilated
and in some instances scarcely recognizable.
At 5 o'clock every one had been extricated
from the ruins, and it is supposed that the woun
ded will exceed 50.
A coroner's jury was immediately summoned
and proceeded to investigate the disaster. The
estimated loss of the building and machinery is
30,000.
IMPORTANT, IF TUUE.
A Paris correspondent of the New York Times
mentions the following very remarkable discov
ery :
" A very remarkable discovery was announced
to the Academy of Sciences by M.Dumas in its
' last sitting. He stated that M. Saint-Clair Deville
had succeeded in obtaining from clay a metal as
white and brilliant as silver, as malleable as gold
and as light as glass. It is fusible at a moderate
temKTature. Air and damp do not affect this
metal, which is called aluminium ; it retains its
brilliancy, snd is not affected by nitric or sulphu
ric acid, either strong or diluted, if the tempera
ture be not raised. It is only dissolved by vry
hot chlorhydric aci i. Several specimens of this
metal were exhibited to the Academy, and on
the proposition of Baron Thenard, it was voted
unanimously that a sufficient snm should be plac
ced at the disosal of M. Saint-Clair Devillo to
nablu him to make experiments on a large scale.'
Nebraska Bill. An old gentleman living in
the upper section of the, city, and who keeps a
regular file of the daily papers and manages to be
always a month behind in his news, because of his
being a slow reader, was much astonished at hear
ing every body speaking of a Nebraska Bill.
Meeting a friend yesterday, he put the following
question to him :
"Who is this Nebarska Bill that they are talk
ing so much about 1"
' Why, don't you know," replied his friend.
"No."
"Why, I thought everybody knew him. It is
Bill Nebraska, the pork merchant on the warf."
"Ah !"
