hi Catenpan ror May.—2lst, 26th, 5th Sunday after Easter. Bishop Sant, the new Roman Catholic Bishop of Malta, bas, like his predecessor, Caranna, refused to take the oath that he will not attempt to disturb the Protestant faith, required, before he can be admitted as a member of the Maltese Council of Government. The Provisional Government of Milan has expelled the Jesuits. Fifteen convents of that society, in Lom- bardy, have been closed, and their entire property se- questrated. A revival of religion in Cehocksink, Pennsylvania, in the First Presbyterian congregation, has been enjoyed, and some twenty or thirty persons, as its fruits. have been received into the Church, and others are expected to be gathered in, By order of His Holiness, the directors and professegs of the Apollinario, which is the Roman Seminary, have xone to estublish themselves and their pupils at the College of St. Ignatius, abandoned by the Jesuits. It ix uncertain whether this college will remain in the hands of its new masters, for the Roman municipality asserts claims upon this establishment, as well as upon the other properties which the religious of St. Ignatius have been obliged to abandon. From the English papers received by the Cambria, we glean the following intelligence:—Tho petition to’ the Queen for the restoration of the convocation, which has been kept back for some time, owing to a delay in ob- taining signatures, occasioned by the Hampden con- troversy, will be forwarded for presentation during the second week in May, The Bishop of Exeter has ad- dressed a letter to the clergy of his diocese, in conse- quence of the recent published statement of the Rev. Mr Gorham. Mr. Gorham had spoken of the bishop's procedure as “a rash attempt to establish his private dogma, of the unconditional efficacy of baptism.” “Of this dogma,” observes the bishop, in his letter, “I will say, that if any clergyman presented to me for a bene- fice, should maintain it, I should as decidedly refuse to institute him, as I have to institute Mr. Gorham.”’ ‘Tho Rev. Henry Zell has resigned the charge of Tri- nity Church. Wolcottville, and accepted a call to the Rectorship of Christ Church, Bethany, Ct. The Rev. H. V. Gardner has resigned the parishes of Harwinton and East Plymouth, and has accepted a call to the cure of the united parishes of Tashua and Long Hill, Trumbull, Ct. The Rev. George B. Eastman has accepted an invita- tion to the Rectorship of Zion Church, Avon, Livings- ton county, Western New York. The Rey. P. O, Holcomb, late of St. Luke's Chureht Weat Granby, New York, has removed to Cheshire, Ct. Police Intelligence. Loafers on the Battery,—We alluded the other day tothe constant habit of men of gentecl appearance promenading the walks on the Battery and insulting respectable females. We are now pleased to learn that Captain Wiley, of the Ist ward police, who is a gentle- man’ and, of course. a protector of the fuir sex, has stationed two vigilant policemen on the Battery, whose duty it is to keep that beautiful promenade in’ excel- lent order, and particularly to detect all these genteel loafers, who so frequently insult respectable females, and at once arrest the seamps and convey them to the station house, By this excellent arrangement, ladies now can with safety visit the Battery, without fear of insult, much to the credit of Captain Wiley. A Scene arrons Justice Trmpson—Yesterday morn- ing.at the return of the watch prisoners brought in the night previous by the policemen, officer Owens, of the 6th ward, arraigned before che magistrate a chunk: icoking Irishwoman,Wwith a very red face.much freckled, a short, turn-up nose, and flery red hair, cropped short behind. Her dress consisted of a loose dress, open in front, giving her goneral appearance w kind of negligé, which is only to be found amongst the beau monde on the Five Points. She called herself Catharine Seely, having obtained that name by marrying a green look- ing countryman by the name of William Seely, resid- ing at a place called New Durham, in New Jersey. It appears Catharine has been a resident on the Five Points for the last two years, and a visiter of all the lowest dens of prostitution, until about two months since Seely visited that region of the city, took a shine toKitty, and led the gentle creature to the matrimo- nial altar, which was tied by the Rev. Mr. Chase ; and the happy pair started the next morning for their | snug little cot, located at New Durham. — However, the novelty of a married life, soon disappeared on the part of Kitty, who every day pined for her dear little oyster cellers, groggeries, and dancc | houses, which abound on the Five Points, where she had been luxuriating for the last two years; and to be cut off, us youmay say, from all the world, was more than Kitty could bear; and scarcely had she been in the country two months, before she ran off and returned to the city again, and located herself again in her old quarters, ‘The husband suspecting where she had gone, followed on after,and last night found her quite drunk, mixed up with’ the lowest thieves and yagabouds in, a den of prostitution, located on the Five Points. He appeared before the magistrate, and told the following story, with teurs in his ey Macistrats—Well Seely, what charge do you make against your wife? ‘Sxecy, on addressing the justicegave all his words a strong Yankee accent, which is difficult to be describ- ed; but the reader can imagine the effect it would have from the language used. Sexiy—Well, your honor, I is a hard working mau ona farm; I lives at New Durham, New Jersey, near Hackensack, and I guess it is something like three months ago since I first saw this woman; she was then living with a man who keeps a place on the Five Points. You see, Judge. I took a kind of fancy to the woman, and that night we went down to Mr. Chase, and got married, and the next day we went to home in Jersey; and I assure you, Judge. I doesn’t want no better wo- man. She can wash, and work, and do any thing she’s mind to, and behaved herself as pretty as any woman could, and werry smart, since she has been with me; I gave her money to buy a pair of shoes. and some more I ave her, and she bought a chimey; and J tell you, Fadge, | began to like her actions right well.and thought she was getting along right nice; but mother gave her ii two shilling piece the other day to go to Durham to get some salt; when she went to the store she took a firink. and instead of coming back with the salt, she took the money aud came right on to York; and when {came to home from work, mother said to me, “Wil- liam, where's Catharine?” and when mother told me what she had done, I directly suspicioned where she had gone, and came right away on to York, and there I found her again, drinking and carryiffg on at the same old place, on the Fiye Points. I really, Judge, don’t like to give her up. if she will only go back with me, for she was just getting along right «mart. Macistratr—Well, Catharine, what do you say to that? Do you want to go back, and live with your husband? Catnantse—No. Judge, I shan’t; he doesn’t give me enough to eat. I have nothing but brown bread, and no butter; and when I went to bake it, I had to beg a little fat from the neighbors, to grease the pan. Macistratr—You had better go and live with your husband; he appears to be a hard-working man, and will keep you respectable—and much better than to be A common prostitute on the Five Points, Catnanixe—Judge, I won't live with him—he's a devilish old fool, and an old jackass; I’m not a-going tolive with him! He knew very well what I was, when only they got me drunk, and while I was a fool, they got me to stand up and get married; but I was drunk at the time, and I don’t believe the marriage is good. Hvsnanp—Judge, I will take her back with me now, if she will only behave herself. MacistratkeI have no power to make the woman live with you, if she don’t feel disposed. The best thing for you to do, will be to get a divorce from her, and fet her go. Husnanp—I don’t want to divorce her, nor hurt her; all [ wish is, to have her live with me. She's very smart, Judge, when she’s amind to. Macistrats—I have no doubt of her smartness, but still, for all that, it is altogether out vf my power to make any smart woman live with a man the don’t like, therefore I shall dismiss the case. Theré, Catharine, You.can go, and endeavor to live with your husband in armony. “No,’, indeed, said Catharine, turning up her short nose, as she left the court, ‘‘you don’t catch me living with that old fool, no how." The husband looked at Kitty with tears in his eyes, and followed after her; but whether he persuaded her to leave a life of prostitution and become virtuous, is rather doubtful, for the next day she was seen by the officers, located again at her old quarters on the Five Points, “Arvest of a Fugitive Burglar.—Officer McGee, of the Sixth ward, arrested yesterday ‘a black fellow called Jack Simpson, on a charge of being a fugitive from Paterson, New Jersey, where he stands charged with burglary. in breaking into a grocery store, occupied by Mr.Ockerson, and stealing therefrom $12 in money, and several other articles. He was arrested and lock- ed up in the jail at Paterson, whence he broke out about a week since, and found his way to New York. Justice Timpson locked him up in the Tombs, to await a requisition from the authorities of Paterson 4 Dishonest Boarder.—A young man by the name of Dennis Maher, boarding at’ No. 139 Cedar street, was robbed of a purse, containing $03, principally in gold. supposed to have buen takon by a fellow boarder, who slept in the same bed, but left the boarding house quite early in the morning, before the loss was discovered by Maher. No arrest. Perjury Case.—The case of perjury, as charged against 8, Seymour, and reported in Friday's paper of last wock, was yesterday dismissed. by Judge Osborn, without going through with the testimony to prove the correctness of the affidavit; inasmuch asthe complain- ants failed to prove the perjury, therefore the case was dismissed upon the face of the’ affidavit. Law Intelligence. Serneme Covrt—May 20—Before Justices Hurlbut, monds, and Kdwards—In the Matter i Philip Waker, brought before the Court ona writ of Habeas Phis case was resumed this morning by D. sq., on the part of Walker, and against the constitutionality of the act of March, 1848, who con- eluded a very able speech, the delivery of which oc- cupied nearly three hours, The court intimated that it would give its decission on Monday morning. Usirev States Disraict Cover, May 20—Before Judge Botts—Decisions—James Billings vs. 2200 dock- logs and 132 piles, Edward Wing, clainant.—Tho con- tract in this cause was, to transport the logs from Whitehall to Troy, by canal, and from thence to this city, by the Hudson River for each pile, and 50 cents for each log, one half to be paid in advance, and the othor half on arrival of the timber at New York. It appears a sale was made to the claimant by the person who contracted for the transportation with the libel- lant; but it is not to be presumed that a purchase would be made leaving the libellant his privilege of lien ascarrier, in possession of the property, without ade- quate indemnity against that charge. ‘The libel must accordingly be dismissed, but without co Daniel Howland vs. Andrew Conway.—This was one of those suits brought by a part of the crew of the ship Elisha Denniston against the master, for short allow- ance on a voyage from New York to New Orleans, Mo- bile, Liverpool, and back to New York. ‘The grava: of the action is, that the bread was unwholesome, & ‘The court was of opinion upon the whole evidence in the case, the equity preponderates in the favor of the defendant, on the question of his liability for costs.— ‘The libel must therefore be dismissed without costs, Uniten States Mansnan’s Orrice.—Charge of Re- 2 tolt.—Thtee seamen, natned Hews, Thomas Ri- chards, and W: ‘King, part ate cat eietar rican brig Dettoit, sent home on the 14th of April last, in the schooner General Worth, by William Hud- ‘fon, Exsq., the alcaldo of the town of Frontera de Tobas- co, on the complaint of the captain,for having refused todo dyty on board of the brig.

Arrivat at New Orveans or Mrs, Cuase, THE Herome or Tamrico.—We are eee to announce the arrival of this lady in this city from Washington last evening, on her return to Tampico. No person engaged in the stirring scenes transpiring in Mexieo during the past two yoars, elicited more praise, enthu- siasm, and gratitude at the time than did this heroic lady, by her gallant conduct at Tampico, by which * the lives of hundreds of our brave soldiers,’’ and mil- lions of property, were saved to nations and individuals.

In Washington, Mrs. Chase was highly honored as a guest of the White House,” where hi was justly appreciated by the noblesse of the world there congregated during the session of our national legisla- ture. Mrs. Chase is at the Verandah. All honor, re- spect, admiration, and love attend and abide with this great-hearted woman, who stood unshrinking and acted so nobly where the heart of manhood and the eye of the hero might have been pardoned for quailing.

The Democratic Convention—Mr. Woodbury and others, anda Pew Facts Mr. Coeke, in the House, to-day, as “assigned counsel,” recommended Mr. Polk to the democra- ey for a second term, while he himselt spoke fa- vorably of General Taylor.

At | first we hear that the Cass stock is rising, and then that the Woodbury is above par. he friends of both of these gentlemen said that the young demoe » busily at work, [tis acy, North and South,are the support of Mr. Woodbury, and that the desperation of the old hunkers everywhere, ry falsifying his course, shows that they are very nd yet their course 1 bound to reaet upon them and ther candidates. Iv is asserted that the most of the falsehoods about him have been traced to the mouths of rival candi Woodbury’s friends are tolerably quiet ; , ing, however, and say nothing against the other candidates, We hear that at the con- vention, it will be proved that the two other stronger candidates (whoever they may be) have wilfully put into circulation what they know to be false, concerning hun.

I think, however, that Mr. Woodbury will get more votes in the convention than Mr, Buchanan; and Mr. Cass, on the first ballot, at least, will beat tha twain.

Delegates to the National Convention—Captured Negroes. The hotels are filled to overflowing with dele- gates and others, en route to the Baltimore conven- tion. This morning the steps of the public houses were crowded, reminding one of bees who leave their hives to sniff the fragrance of the air and gyrate in the sunshine. In the hum of voices were heard the names of ‘ Cass,” “ Woodbury,” * Bu- chanan,” and others, The topic of the presiden. tial nomination was up Tmost on the tongue, and the good breakfasts of which the patriotic cians had partaken. We noticed private knots on the back porches, discussing claims of as- pirants, amid clouds of tobacco smoke ; in fact, the The lobbies of Congress, and the nooks and ‘3, are not free from the contagion. We have en told that the delegates are very suspicious e of another, and all cautiously avoid eoimmit- talism. They talk ; this cannot be avoidsd. They think, and this is right. They appear to be dis- posed to harmonize for the publi good. The only difficulty apprehended is with the two sets of dele- gates from New York—the hunkers and the barn- burmers ; and they are expected to arrive in greater numbers this eyening or to-morrow. ‘They are se- parated by a wide breach, and bitter are their dif- ferences. What is to be done who can say? With ‘hat anxiety do we look forward to the decision of the question which delegates shall be admitted to seats in the convention !

They are continually talking of stocks rising and falling. According to their scale, Presidential stocks are continually fluctuating, like the ¢ faney stocks” of Wall street.
