One week later alvices f due te-moriew over the wires from The North the Nouthe he Progress of Manufictares, Our readers will fiud in lumn, a very in- teresting letter from the South, written by one ofour attachés, who is travelling in the Southern States for the purpose of taking notes and writing letters eon- cerning the progress of manufactures in that section of our contederacy. In a day or two another gentle- man frem owr estblichment will start ona tour throvgh the Noithern and Eastern Stues, for a similar purpose. The information which they will collect, systematize, and publish in this journal, will, we think, be very valuable and interesting to our readers. The progress of the manufacturing wealth of this country 13 a subject which 1s not very well understood—especially that of the Southern States of the confederacy. It is only within « few years since manufactures have been undertaken, to uny extent, in those States; and already, as will be seen by the letters in to-day’s Herald, extensive cotton manufactories, rivaling those of the North and East, can be reckoned by the score. There is nothing to prevent the carry- ing on of a very extensive business of this descrip- tion in the Southern Stites, and a very profitable one, too. If the New England and English manu- facturers can pay all the charges incidental to the transportation of the raw material, consisting of freight; insurance, agents’ commissions, &c., and afterwards make a profit, surely our Southern neighbors, who ruise the raw material and have it literally at their own doors, can do the same. The truth is, that manufacturing im the South is only begun, and the extent of that beginning augurs well for the position whieh that portion of the country will hold in regard to this description of induetry in a few years. other e @erdition of Rome—The Pope's Allocution. One of the most strange and curious pieces of composition that has for a number of years ap- peared in print, is a document recently issued by his Holiness Pope Pius the Ninth, pronounced in the secret consistory at Gaeta, and termed an Al- locution. It is publithed in the Catholic organs threvghout the country. In this document or pronunciamento, his Holi- nese exhorts, denounces, uppeals, threatens, con- demne, prays, beseeches, quotes texts of Scripture, ‘and winde up by inviting his venerable brethren of the church, to seek consolation in humiliation and prayer. Of course, it is mainly directed to a re- view of the scenes which bave occurred in the Pontifical States and in almost the whole of Italy, during a year past, and to condemnation of those perrons whose borome, swelling and distending with the spirit of liberty within them, asserted the rights of freemen and upset their rulers. Their acts and movements, he says, are adverse to pub- lic tranquillity and order; and as for the agitators themecives, they “ are enemies of the church and of humun society,” * architects of deceit,” **un- wearied authors of egitation,” “most turbulent ”” “enemies of God and man,” “impious men,” and everything else that is im- proper. When we take into consideration tke spirit of the age in which we live, the principles on which the people of Kume deposed the Pope from his temporal authority, and m the defence of which they are now armed and prepared to die, if such a seerifice is required, and the picture which Rome has presented since the fight of its sovercion to Gueta in disguise—we certainly are amcsed at thie language. Those enemies of ‘ied ood man, those impious aud factious men, as hie Hiciiness stigmatizes them, have done nothing more then our fathers did, and have fought and are fighting for noth ms wore nor less than what our fathers tought tor im the revolutionary struggle with Greet Brinwin. It was not as head of the Catholic Church that they rose up against him—it was not for the purpose of driviag him from the Papacy , that they pat their les in danger. So far from thet, after bis flgbt to Gaeta, the provisional govemment of Kome sent « coennittee after him, to invine him beck ## the bead of the Catholic Cherch, while they repudiated him as their sove- reign. But it wus in vindication of the priuciple of seli-govemment, or Genweracy, that they adopted the course whrek they did 5 it wae with the end of abolebing the theres of goverument which were fromed by despots; releving themselves of the precticel operation of thowe theories, and vindica- ting the nghts of men, now beyruniag to be pro- perp e retood and appreciated, that they de- proce Avd whe will say that they had 1 Coa the right of the thir wet bugtond, and sever between them and the Can the ryrht of the and factious men per ihe teen Col the mether County, be denied 1 eal Conmection poople of France to deywe Louis Philippe, aud eoteblioh @ repullcun fom of government, in liea ed the (otiem, exp Frupt and traunieal ey tem e hick he premded over, be denied?

And we confess, that we see but little Christian spirit in instigatiog, in this age of the world, powerful nations to re- store, by the sword, by the. march of foreiga armies thiovgh streams of blood, the restoration of the head of the Catholic Church to a political position, from wich he fled, and to which he vever again can be raised but by foreign bayonets, and which he never can hold except by hireling and foreiga soldiery, and at an immense sacrifice of haman life. Tue Astor Piack Riors, any tur Granp Jury or tHe Court or Sxssions.—The tragedy which occurred in the vicinity of the Astor Place Opera House, en the 10th of May last, has been a fruitful topic of conversation from that day to the present time. If the public had geen dispe to let the matter rest, they could not, for it been brought before them every few days since the occurrence, by some official act on the part of the authorities. rst came the arrests by the police; then the in- vestigation, or rather the inquisitorial proceedings, cxme on, before a Judge of the Circuit Court; aud then again, the resolutions§presented in the Com- mon Council. All these proceedings, following one ofter the other, kept alive the embers of excite- ment, and after all these came the charge of Judge Daly, to the Grand Jury of the Court of Sessiou: when that august body commenced their delibera- tions, at the beginning of the June term, That charge was worthy of the grave occasion which called it forth; and it is yet to be seen how the grand inquest have treated the matter which was subnutted so them in such eloyuent terms by the learned Judge. That the Grand Jury have labored assiduously, during the term, cannot be denied. They met day after day, and only received their discharge on the last afternoon of the term, when they brought their papers into court and anuounced that they had completed their work. It will be recollected, that the principal burthen of Judge Daly’s charge was the subject of the Astor Place riots; uad in view of the importance of the subject, it was to be supposed that the indicting jury would have made a presentment, and set forth such facts as they could, consistently with their sworn duty. But no such thing has eventuated from their de- liberations. All thut we know is, that twenty-one persons have been indicted, and, from all that can be learned, we are forced to the conclusion that these unfortunutes are the persons who are must likely to have been made the cat’s paws of more able and designing men. After charging the jury, in general terms, as to the law upplicable to the case, and the apparent circumstances attending the riot, Judge Daly said :—The jury should also look into the conduct of the police force ; and if any member of that body gave aid or countenanee te the rioters, he should be in- dicted, und made an example of. If he wilfully neglected his duty, he 1s lable to be prosecuted ; and, in scrutinizing the conduct of public officers, it was not necessary to be over considerate for the influence of human fear, for if an officer lacked the constitutional courage essential to the discharge of his duty, he should abstain from intruding him- self into such an office.” Aud he concluded his re- marks upon this point by stating, that hewever high in authority any delinquent was, he should be made anexample of. He was no more entitled to the sympathies of the jury, “ than the coward who enhste for a soldier.” Now, how have the Grand Jury followed the reasonable instructions which they received previous to commencing their du- ties? Have they inquired with inquisitorial care, whether there was any persons high in authority, who had avoided the responsibilities of the office into which he had ‘intruded himself?’ Have they, during the three weeks of careful investiga- tion, taken pains to ascertain whether any person or pereons left the ground of tumult when the di turbance was rife? Have they sought a solution to the problem, ‘“ what did they at the New York Hotel, when they were wanted in Astor Place and Eighth street 1” Have they carefully inquired how many tickets were given uway, and by whom aa! to whom? Have they, according to their oaths, made careful investigation into all matters sub- mitted to them, and true presentment made, with- eut fear, favor, or hope of reward? We suppose, of course, they have ; but as they did not see fit to offer any general presentment in the matter, we, of courre, ure left to our conjectures for probabilities, and to the tardy operation of the law, for certainty inthe matter under consideration. No bail cases are to be tried in the General Sessions until the September term. Meantime, the anxtous specta- tors who have seen the first four acts, viz: the two nights in the Opera House, the legal investigations, and the returns ef the Grand Jury, must await with pati-nce for the denouement of the grand plot. We feat that the persons who have compiled the work for enactment, have | ft out much of the by-play and counterplot ; but nous verrons. Tus Panama Raitroap.—We alluded, yester- day, in general terms, to the success of the sur- veyore in their efforts to obtain a short route across the Isthmus, and to the probability of the immedi- ate construction of the railroad from Chagres to Panuma ; but we were in error in stating that the patties interested had determined, themselves, to take nearly all the stock. We are informed that they are ready to take any portion that may not be wanted by the public ; but it is their wish to have the public interested in the stock, and their intention to distribute it among them. In correcting this error, we take occasion to say that, since writing the article in question, we have seen Colonel Hughes, General Norris, and other gevilemen attached to the surveying party, who arrived in the Crescent City. They have all re- turned in good health, and delighted with the re- sults of their libors, having succeeded in selecting a route in every respect far better than they ex- peeted, and no doabt the best on the continent ot Ancnea. Their exploration has been most tho- rough, for a rood forty-six miles in length, having Tun lors ia different directions to the extent of three huudied wud torty seven miles. We Lient. Porter, of the Navy, who syeoke inthe the of bork sides, and Who, trom his expericnes in such matters, buviog been eag-ged ou the Coast Sur- vey around cur own harbor, is most competent to @ ve on opimon. He brings home to the comprehen wien of owr own people the harbor of Navy Bay which i#to be the terminus of the road, by com- poring it in cwpacity to that portion of the East Rover lying between Blackwell's Island, drawing & line serees at Governor's Inland. And while work ie ite capecity, it has every advantage, in the # liners of its waters and freedom from wince } and ourieo's lt» unneceewary to add any further remarks ope what we have on verious occasions said of the importance of this road, ond of the large re- eulte trom the moderate cost of the same. have al-o 2 1 tera 18 harbors eo | journals facetiously term inte which the democratic party in the State of New York has bees divided, ever since Mr. Van Baren threw the firebrand of slavery among them, for the purpose ot defeating the election of General (Cass to the presidency; and we can now, we think, safely say, that at the next State election the integrity of that party will be restored, and that it ‘will pull together once more. There 1s less acri- mony indulged in by the respective leaders towards each other; but still there is too great a want of brotherly love evident. We hope the angry pas- sious of both factions will subside and melt away under the influence of the very hot weather which now prevails. From all appearances, the leuders will be a» thick as pickpockets, by the time the next election comes reund. ‘We are satisfied that this union would have taken place long since, soon after the democracy discovered how beautifully they were dupsd by Mr. Van Buren, but for one particular thing, which is a gre: 1d powerful consideration with profesved politicians of all shades, colors and com- plexions. This is, the distribution of office. Before the party could unite again, this very important ques- tion should be settled. If the hunkers, uncondition- ally, surrendered to the barnburners, of course they could net expect much of the plunder in the shape of office, in the event of the party being successful. If the barnburners caved in, it would be the sams with them—they would have to starve. Hence we account forthe numerous hints, consu!tations, inti} mat and soundings, that were given out from ume to time, and which, from. all appear- anees, we should say, 19 about to result in a union of the forees—or ot “union for the sake of the union,” as some of the democratic it, Accordingly we see that a consulting convention has been pro posed to be held nt Rome, on the fifth of Sep- tember next, in which both parties will be repre- eomted by delegates. The work goes on, Let the distribution of the spoils be provided for, and we will warrant there will be union among them. 8 anp U'erex-rence.—Our readers will another column, a circular issued oy Bishop Hughes to his elergy, informing them that next Sunday is the doY uppointed for the coll Peier-pence for the Pope in all the Catholic churches of this diocese Itis to be hoped that this Peter-pence will not ul timately be used agaiust human freedom in Europe, sinst those noble patriots who are sacrificing their all, besides risking their lives, in the cause of the rights of man.
