Tho House of Assembly was prorogued yes- torday, after a sitting of near four months. Tho Govornor gave rather a long speech, which you will find in the papers sont you. ‘The condition of the island is such, at prosent, that it is contemplated to send to England three of our membors of the Assem- bly as delegates, to lay before the British peoplo and House of Commons the deplorable condition and distressed stato of our island. The delegates are tobe sent on by private subseription through the island, and it is expected that about $10,000 will be raised to defray the expenses. It was in- tended that the island should pay the charges, and delegates wero named by the House to go on the mission, The number was threo, fixed on Messrs. Girord, (the talented editor of the Colonial Standard aaper, published here, and # momber of the House,) Hon, BH, Thompson aud Wim. Smith, Msgs.; thon were added the Spoaker, Mr. Jordon, aud Mr. Jack- son, and Mr. Vickars, a black gentleman, a momber also of the House; but en account of the opposition offered to the latter gontleman, (not on account of his color, but he not being qualified to go on such a mission,) the whole affair is dropped, aud the ques- tion is now taken up by private subscriptions, and the first named members are selectod for this pur- pose. They are to go as soon as possible next month, and the amount will soon be raised. They are to advocate for protection of sugar from slave countries, and to give us then fair play. The Hon.

The party consigted of seven persons, viz.: Capt. Allen Gardner, of the English navy; Messrs. Maidenment, Williams, Babcock, Pierce, Erwin, and Bryant. The natives being hostile, they were driven about from place to place, oncountering many storms and gales, and lost one of their boats, to- gether with some clothes, books, and money.

Arch Bishop Hughes’ Catholic Chapter in the History of the United States. Mr. Bensyrr:—— Eight mouths have elapsed since Arch Bishop Hughes was arraigned for the blunders he had com- anitted in his Liverpool dinner speech, and other addresses, in reference to the history of our religions liberty, and he plowds at length to the indietmont. Were | to say, * montes parturiant ; naseitur ridicn- lus mu,” 1 should eortuinly be takew to task by the Baltimore Sim and certain other papers, tor wh have no dy Twill, therefor in both length and breadth, the Archbishop's pro- duction is b mouse, and will only say, thi think the errors contained i not to go torih to the pul under (he sanction of rection. And i doubt not you will agri that the: be no je so proper to carry forth their correction as that which first cony syed them to. the public. ‘The voor first sentence coutains a gla error in point of fact, He says that religious equality is guaranteed to all the people of this land by the Gon- stitution of the United States. It is not so. It might as well be said that frecdom of speceh and of the press, and the right of the people, peaceable to assemble, and to petition the government for a re- dvess of grievances, are guarantecd by the consti- tution. ‘The fact is, all these wore considered by the people of the several States as inherent rights; ‘and, as such, they cherished them, and they valued them so highly that they were wowill o yield them up to the geueral government, or even to suffer it tu in- terfore with it im any degree. And, although it was understood by all that, 1s a necessary consequence the powers not delegated to the United States by the constitution, nor probibited it to the States, were reserved to the States respectively, or to the people; yet, so jealous were they of those ‘rights, that they were bot satistied till an expression of restrictions and reve: ons was engrafted into tho constitu- tion in the form of amendments. Consequently, the general government cannot interfere with the reserved rights of the Stutes—and all are reserved tlint are not expressly granied—free- dom of conscience, of speech, und of the press, and the right penceably to’ assemble, and to petition the government, in particular. ‘These blessings belong to, and are in the keeping of, the people of the several States. They have declared them to be natural rights, and that they are free to be enjoyed by all within their respective jurisdic- tions; and they can interfere, and change, and modi- fy, and annul them if they please, and the general government has no power to prevent it. The whole of his first paragraph is erroneous. He says that the framers of the constitution proposed to secure religious equality by the constitutional nega- m of ait cowie to legislate on so sacred a subject. This is a mistake; the framers of the constitution had nothing in the world to do with that negation. The question was not even discussed by them. Two years, I believe, after their work was done, it was proposed to the States hy Congress, 23 an ame! ment—reveral of the State conventions for the rati- fication of the constitution having expressed a de- sire to that eff All that the framers of the con- stitntion did respecting religion was to declare, simply, that no religious test should be required as a quia iéation to any office under the gover t of the United States. In this respect all religions are ity--Judaism, Paganism, Christianity, Mo- m, Deism, &e., &e. Was an act like -s0 noble, so jus ver done by Roman Catho- r by any single sect of Protestants? No, er! For this immortal act—this just homage mid to the everlasting principle of right--the world ix indebted, most probably, to the variety of reli- gious sects that were in existence here at the time of the revolution, and especially to the efforts of individuals who were designated as free-think- $s * chapter > on So grave a sul high a namo, w is the life of ers.

" A pamphlot has just been issued, containing the proceedings and speeches of tho State Tomperanoce Convention, recently held at Augusta. As thie pamphlet is designed for gratuitous distribution, and will doubtless find its way into all the States wheae legislatures arc in session, it possessos somothing more than a mere local importance.
