An important mit wes confmenced yesterday Iu the Citentt Cowrt by the Chicago Alcohol Worka agninst Ssmuel A, Irvin, Collector of Ynternal Revenue, to dotermine the bnsisof taxation on the mpunfaciure of lignors. Plaintiff nllogos that, in 1870, ho commenced thn menufacturo of aleohol from grain, and com- plied with all the Revenuo Inws us to notice, bond, oto., and, among other things, stativg thut plaintiff would ferment ench tub of mash for tho period of | goventy-two hours. Irvin, as Col- eetor, received from snfd plaintir wvarions sums, during the months of Marel, April, oy, June, and July, for the per dion eapacity tux of fho dis- tillory, basing his estimate on n fermonting period of forty-sight hours. 1n that time he collected $10,400 on 104,000 bushels of grain. Plaintiff, howover, alleges ihat, his fermont- ing period being seventy-two lours -iustoud of forty-cight Loms, 1he por_dicm capacity tax should huve beon 7,754 on 77,840 bushels of grain, | The lavger sum was paid under protest, #ud an appeal teken to the Commissioner of Tu- ternnl Revonuo, but by him disallowed, I'ho smount claimed i the difference hetween tho two valuetions, amounting to $2,708, for which the suit was brought, - A similar suit was brought by the same plein- tiff against Horman Raster, as Collector, from January, 1871, until Moy, 1872. During that time Raster collected €11,448 on n basis of -114,480 bushols of grain, predicated, liko the ofier, on the basis of o fermentiug poriod of forty-oight Inetead of seventy-two hours. The true estimate should bave heon #8,424 on o bauis of 81,240 bushels, and the difference, £9,024, is tlio amount for which enit is brought. = TUE JATL, CONTRACT.

But Horaco White caunot conceal his irritation that the Trisly, with whoso assistance ho beat tho Republicans fn 1869, hiave gone with the Gormans this time, 1o lectures his people -of the Gago party for throwing awny so waatonly tho excollont opportunity of dividing tho Ger- muns through the Wine-aud-Beer platform, If, #ohe snys, thoy had not boon so stubborn as to reject that platform, and ' il thoy had not committed the still wore enormous folly of putting forth & tickot without & solitary German name on it, the Gorman voto would linve beon divided, aud n division of the Irish voto would have followed, since the Irish wonld not havo gone with the Gormans unlesy thoy bud bad the strongest evidence of their fidelity. This is not bad rousoning. Ioro, too, we find the plain confession of 1foraco White thntle inlended to use thoso well-meaning Gornmang— who, ignorant .of his true character, bolieved they could through him hrrmonize the Germans and Americans—merely as instruments to sot the CGermans at odds with one suother, and get wway thoir Irish allies, The question whether this maneuver would have succceded is now an empty one ; hut it ig certain that the American oppononts of 'the People’s party were ‘grest auses in not moking on ottempt to brosk our rauke.

T'ho scene to which I refer is the result of tho burating of & bog, situnted about throe miles east of the town of Dunmore, in the northorn arb of this county (Galway). Herolofors tho Eog was connected” with the Duumore Rivor, at Dunmore, by asmall stream called tho Corrabel River, flowing through u coutinuation of pasture and tillgge lands 1 its course. Lhe lovel of the uppor surface of the bog was formerly 260 ‘feot nbove the ses, and that of tho water of Duuwiore 190 feot, showing o fall of 70 feel. U to a fortnight ago, this bog presonted tho usual appenranco of most of our undrainod Irish bogs —i, €., itd skirts, adjoining tho arable land, con- misting of high turf bavks, ite contre Dbeing ox- ceedingly wot and spongy. On Wednosday, the 18t inst., tho farmer oc- cuping & furm on the Corrabel stream, newrest tho bog, was digging bis potatoes, when ho sud- denly obsorved o brown mass slowly approach~ ing him. o left his spade iu tho ground aud went for the neighbors; on his roturn tlie mass which was (ho moving bog) hed hulf covered is potato-flold, and complotely hidden from gight his fleld of corn, with the exception of o fow “stocks* situated on a knoll; thoy atill re- main an juland in the middle of a scono of deso- Jation, Lhis was but tho cononcement ; sinco then the hog has continued to ndvanco in o roll- ing mass, burying on its way three farm-houses, and covering ut least 180 ucres of pusturo and arable land to a dopth in some places of six foet, ‘Pho wufortunute ocenpiers of tho three farms ave beou tuwrned Dy this visitation of Trovi- lenco, farmloss und” homelesy, with thoir tami- lioy, on the world.

IHoro aro two broad assertions, and with tuem I will now denl, Fivat, I would ask, did nol the Cutholies of Uermuuy shed thelr blood on all tho battlo-fields of Ftance ? Did they not Iny the fonndation stones of that Lpire with their lite-hlood ¥ Wora they that laid the tirut hasis of that Imperial power? Whore was thero uny ovideuco or uign of hostility to Imperini’ Gormany in the mou who Inid down their lives forit? What man is thors that has eitlior olmnly or gecrotly connpiradd to undo the work that ho thus helpod to accom- plisks 2 What Bishop, what priest (for thoy ure not acenged by namo) s in any way by act or word manifested himsoll to be an cuemy to that om- pire which wak founded on the blood und the ives of tha Catholics of Giormany¥ No puch thing is to be fonud. 1t does not exiat in any record. Tuay that for this remson: When (he reat Minister of the lhnlpim. stunding up be- ‘ore Parliamont, was ehinlleuged to produce the proof of his nceusation, Le could produco 1o documents, Chullengod wgain aud again to briung proof of theso ollegations, ho brought nono but this: ‘You must timst my word.” I sy, thon, firat, that the chargo that thors haw heen conspiracy or bostility npon the part of the Catholies of Germany agniopt . the cmpire is up to this wmomant Vithout n elindow of proof. And when men ask forit it the light of duy they are bid to takeil on trust. Lean well iuderatand that & great power absorbing the lozser sovorsignties of u country may nwaken jenlousy. There may be Princas, and politivians, and soverolgns, howevor small, Who do pot like this provees of abaorption, who are impatient of being snnihilated, and there may bo those who, beings politicully on their side, 1nuy have thwart- ed this grent political nction. Buf that was not ‘the Catholics of Gormany, It was not the worlk of roligion ; thercfore” was uot the work of Catholics. Nay, I believe it was more tho work of Proteatants than of Catholiow. If wasmnot o mattey of religion ab all.. Bui the wholo charge I8 lnld against tho Catholics, and why ? Docaues the nunte of Catholic moans that they belleve in w *kingdom not of {lns world ;* tlnt they own o suprome authority—tho Vicar of Jesus Christ ; that there is a head ou earth hljihm' than tho im- porial head in all matters toucking tho faith aud all matters roluting to the conscience of man ; and that no man can with a high hund touch thoss things wlick belong to the soul and the kingdom of God. Tho day is pust when that old saying which, if T am not mistuken, had ity origin in’ Gormany, ¢ Cujuy regio cjus veligio'— that is, *The lord of tho soil is lord nlso of the fuith of his wubjects,” can any more prevail, The civil autliority over men hasno power to proscribo what 15 to be their relizion; what nro to bo their ariicles of fuith—whether they shull bo thirty-nineor forty, und what is to be their form of worship ; whother it shall be in a book of common prayer or in oxtemporanoous effu- sions, ‘Ihe Catholics ara aceused becanse thoy hold that Crosac’s power has {is limits, and that beyond those limits it has no oxistence. Tetme tnkio the other assortion, nasmely: that tho ec- clestastical laws which have hoeen passed inno way touch roligion, in no way touch the cou- seionce. Woll, in order fully ‘to appreciate the menning of this point, let me remind you of our great 5t. Thomas of Cantorbury, one of the greatost murtyra—the marlyr for the liborties of the Church. ~ And for what did Lo dio? The King of Eungland, cxceeding the limits of tho Cliiutiau aud Catliolic_soveraignty of King Ed- ward, violuted the liberties of " the Chuich in theso particulars. Tle took its goods. But that was tho least wrong lie committed. Ha forbade tho Church to excommunicato those who deserved excommunication withoul his loavo, He forbado the Chureh to choose its Bishiops without his leave. 1l forbade tho pas- tors and the people of Eugland to appeal from his judgment to tho IHoly Hee, 'I'hers wero other tuiugfil in contest, but theso three aro cnough, These were three violations of tho Divine authority aud liberty of tho Church, for any one of which any man ought to luy down hig life, What hins now beeu done in Germauy ? The other day, men who refused subniission o the dofinition of an _Tecumonical Council, and, therefore, to a daflnition of {aith, iere ustly excommunicated by their Biehope. Throse mon who weres oxcommunicated for herosy wera taken up and unp‘mrted and encouraged by the civil power aud placed in oflices of trust. By thatact two libertics of the Chnrch wero violated at onca—the one her suprompo doctrinal authority as the judgo of truth and of heresy. Noxt it was nlso u violation of the supreme judi- cigl authority of the Chmreh to determino who are or who ato not [aithful, who axe ox who are not heretical, who are or who are not worthy of her communion, Does not this touch religion 7 DBut, noxt, Inws wers made withdrawing from the Bishops the training and formation of thoso who. aro to bo her future priosts.
