ys Lecture to the Italians on Peet iaane Liquor Law and other Matters. ‘As usual, cur Italian citizens attended numerously, last Bunday evening, in the Sunday School room of the Taber- nacie, to hear the eloquent preacsing of their distin- guished countryman. After the prayer of “Our Father which art in Heaven,”’ the orator announced that the subject ofjthe leeture would be ; “The duties of Italians towards God, themselves, and all their fellow men.’ We must learn to fulfil all the commandments of God, to re- spect His name, and not to do to any fellow creature what you would not should be done unto you. The religion of nature is a clear conscience and honesty, I may add, also, true patriotism ; that of God is faith and by works of charity, not by long prayers and superstition. I shall never exclude any person who possesses all these things because he should not believe as Ido. My opinion is, that the Great Master of all has not created millions of souls for an eterval dampation for not naving been bap- tized with water. Those who have not received the gift of revelation, will be saved without law by their natural virtue, which is the baptism of the Holy Ghost; the others who are instructed in all the evangelical truths of the Gospel must be baptized by water, and believe, to be called asaint. The honest pagan, never baptized, will be saved by his honesty; aud +o will millions of people who were born before Christ. This doctrine is certainly contrary to the teaching of the clergy of Kome, notwith- ‘man may be innogent, moral and charitable. 1 recommend to you, my Italian brethren, not to use in vain the name of God; never blaspheme, and avoid swear- | nty is to respect Him as we do in our prayers. Beaphomy ia more common in Catholic countries than among the Protestan's. Go to Naples, or Rome, where the masa of the people iy more superstitious, more bi; ed andfanatic than religious, and there you will hear God profaned every instant, and the namés of the apos tles Ke and Paul, aud of the Virgin Mary, put in ridi cule and blasphemed as a mere joke. What has the Ghurch of Rome done to put a stop to this scandalous or vulger practice? Did she act with kind and christian t ,, with moral persuasions? No—with the In- quisition! The Dominican friars amused themselves by putting s lock through the lips of the blasphemera, and Exposing the tortured transgressors at the door of the church during the Sunday service. The tortured were generally the poor, because the rich people could pay the tariff which the Inquisitors put oa every individual who was found guilty of swearing, This is not the way to abolish blasphemy: it is not by burning alive the acoused, as Saint Louis of France practised, but to teach them Detter morals. We Italians, the more we become desi- rous of being emancipated from Rome and foreign des. potism, the less we should profane the name of God. I remember that in the beginning of the popularity of Pius IX., when the Italians thought that he would have been the savior of Italy, blasphemy was totally banished from the lips of the Italians, and if one was heard to name God in vain he was ealled a «py of Austria, and not the son of the Pope. After Pius IX. preached a sermon ‘on blasphemy in St. Andrew’s Church, in Rome, you could not find a single citizen who would have dared to be marked out a3 blasphemer; but this was done more for the sake of his Holiness, than from respect to God. I re- member of having seen on the ferryboats of the river Po large bills posted up with the following words—* The Italian blasphemer cannot be a son of Pius IX.’’ If, then, ‘once We Italians ceased to profase the name of God to ease the Pope, let us now cease swearing for the sake of od himself. Our secoad daty is to sanctify the day which should be dedicated to the service of God, You have six days in the week for your own use, why shall we not comscerate one also to our divine maker? “It 1am not a pharisee, I divide the Sunday into two parts—one for the edification of the soul and for instruction, and the otber for repose. Instead of frivolities, read a chapter of the New ‘Testament; and do not smuse yourselves, as has been New Orleans, under the very nose of the din a Catholic city, by having a bloody, and bear fight. But if I condema those violations of the day of God, I do not approve of the practise of certain Protestant countries, where ‘people think that by going to church five times on Sunday, and eating cold vieiuals, they serve better the cause of God. Tam an independent man, and as such Iam free to express my opinions. In some parts, the people would never dare to trespass on Sunday outside the door of the house for the purpose of taking a walk. Inatead of this they keep themselves very retired, si: around a table, and after having read the Bible, they fill up glasses of whiskey toddy and continue their Sunday gous for several hours uatil their hearts are merry. instead of spending a part of this day in driaking whiskey toddy, I prefer to walk, or other occupations which can- not be injurious tothe body. Do you believe, my brethren, that it w'll be possible for you to open in’ this city an Italian chape!—not a Protestant but a Christian one, as wae the Church of St. Paul? Although I shall notremain here longer than two weeks, I hope to es- tablish among you an Italian worship, directed by an Italian, and by this you will repudiate the slanders of your enemies, who say that, baving abandoned the Jesuits, you have become infidels. We must do justice to ourselves, and we must fee! a self love, not @ vaim and personal ambition, buta sentimental love of justice for our nationalty and canse. Iam man, and dn Italian, and, what is better, a Christian. In every circumstance of life I have been placed by misfortune, I have never disgraced my country, neither at home nor abroad; and in order that we can obtain among foreign people their yespect and sympathy we must show ourselves indus- trious, not to be ashamed of any honest work or trade swe may by circumstances be compelled to undertake. In ‘London the Italian society had a funu of £200 sterling; but, against my will, they distributed this money for charities, instead of employing it for means of industry, and,a few months after, there was neither the £9 ai ter the committee. I have seen enough of Ame rica to be able to say that any man, with good health anda good will, can gain his livelihood better than in the Old World, aad by economy aud moral conduct ean put aside a part of his wages to become an independent man. I recommend you also temperance and sobriety. By this I would not be represented by you as an orator of the temperance society, (Laughter) 1 shall never speak in favor of the body of teetotalers to Italians, here or in Italy, in the zense it is understood in America and in |. sball say nothing against it to Americans while I am here, because, as a foreigner, I maust respect the laws of the eountry that gives me shel- ter; and St. Paul says: ‘Do not usp wise if it can scanda- lize your brother.’” But to [talians, of Italian reform, have to preach the pure and true gorpel of Christ. And now, has not Chiist turned water into wine, and not wine into water’ (Bravo) I cannot disapprove of the drinking of wine and liquors, as I shall never two gospels, as some persons do, by expiain- the part which suits their doctrine, and leaving aside what is in opposition. Letany one eome to Italy nd introduce the Maine Liquor law and I shall oppose bim—I shall compat his tyrannical theories. Many speak ‘upon temperance and the gospel because they find it use- ful to their interests. Christ says: “That it is not that which passes through the mouth that defiles aman, but what comes out of the mouth.’ Also, St. Paul says: “Take wine for your own use and benefit; it 1 preach temperance, I shall speak against the gospel It 18 oad for a indy who sits all the day on a chair, reading or knitting, to drink water; but for a poor blacksmith or Jaborer, who works twelve or more hours of the day, by swallowing water he will become a consumptive. If I go to Italy and speak against wine they will answer, we preagh true gozpel, and you will find in those sacred pees that wine is approved, and was drank by Christ welf. But it ia said that drinking is dangerous. Everything is dangerous, when you use it not with mode. ration. Italians, remember ‘that we are on the eve of our regeneration. While the Protestants are sleeping, they do not perceive that the tem- rance society is & Jesuitical movement, not because t institution was presehed by Father Mathew, but on | account of its tendencies. The nature of the temperance society is a papal one—binding a person, by oath, not to drink, nor give any drink, nor to live or remain in com- pany with those who do not belong to the total abati- mence society. These Protestant teetotalers should never reproach or ridicule Ca¥holies for not eating meat on Fri- day, or fasting during Lent, while they prohibit, by oaths and anti-constitutional laws, people from ing an strong beverage. How shall they reproach Gregory VI for having established celibacy among priests? will come when the Americans and English will learn to embrace all the papal rules of fasting and other asbsti nencies, Inthe same way, to prevent adultery should we destroy all human beings, or prohibit matrimony ? to prevent robbery, should we prohibit holding property ? and to prevent fornication, should we banish all women from society ’—yet the toraperance men would burn the root of the vine to prevent drunkenness I have been present at some women’s convention. (Langhter.) I shall respect this delicate sex, w ng no other atrom argument in defence of t cause than to wish that we should live for a few days in the company of their dranken fhusbands. I shall not say anything against them, al though they are placed in a different condition than at the time of the Apostle Paul. We have seon even “cura ‘women! ’’ and, no doubt, they take great care of their | flosks. (Lavghter.) But 1 would inform these zealous ‘women, and their temperance advisers, that they cannot make man good by the torture and the gibbet. They must reform the morals of society.” They will say that is hard task, bus it, is rational, and will be snore permanent. Spread education, and you will abolish drunkenness. With all the temperance societies in Engétnd, (supposed to have 106,000 members, ) how many drunkards have joined? I believe not more than a dozen. All the other members sre generally women, ministers, and deacons, who have never swallowed’ a glass of wine or beer’ since the commencement of the temperance movementa. Yet ops are increasing. In Italy I shall preach moderation, but not total abstinence. {know that my speaking will raise against me all the teetotalera: but Iam # free men, independent of all societies. 1 speak against popery because I believe it to be an impestur Yam not paid by Protestants, mor any other sect Pay ol ject is to preach the gorpel, and nothing but that I ‘Will pardon all those who will oppose me, but the individ ual who dare say that I speak against popery for the sake of the dollar I cannot but despise as a venomous reptile. if I bad been fond of the dollar I could have found pleaty of means in England, where I was not only received in the highest circles of society, but also attended every where by crowds of hearers of all classes. (Bravo.) I have also to recommend you to conduct yourselves in this land of exile as exemplary men; never speak badly ono against the other—and f am glad of having aecn in America, at least in New York, my countrymen do love each other as brethren—and not to embitter their fate with slanders and calumnies, I know that among ‘ou are some codini—I mean pretended liberals, who are ruly Jesuits; well let them follow their hypocritical mis ion, ccumulate some means, in spelety.

According to one account, General Peaslee has sent on to Washington some twenty or thirty names of demo- crats who are togo into the Custom House on the 2d of May, the first day of the month falling on the Sabbath. This is stoutly denied by others, whose hopes of success are not quite so strong, perhaps, as those of the other faith. Iam inclined, from some things that I haveca- sually heard, to think that the former are right. Mean- time, the Collector is as calm asa New England pond in summer, and cool as the same pond in winter. What ho intends to do he does not advise the public ef. He will “strike,” Isuppose, and then ‘* hear” the complaints of the whigs. Governor Clifford nas become very unpopular with the whigs, who generally regard his administration as having | thus far proved a failure. The appointment of Mr. Mer- rick to the place made vacant by Judge Cushing's resig- vation, has caused the anger of the whiga, which had deen with difficulty suppressed before, to break out. Se- veral of their papers are speaking out with a pleinness more intelligible than agreeable to some of the parties concerned. Most of Governor Clifford’s appointments have not been ofa character to satisfy his party, who | probably expected too much of him. The fact i, that | though an able man, Mr. Clifford is not possessed of those | peculiar qualities which go to the making of a great | party chief. He has never had much experience | in political life, his reputation and acts being mostly legal. It was a recommendation to his nomination tha he had not been mixed up with the bitter political con- tentions of late years; but this absence of experience has | not worked so well in the Governor as in the candidate He has run in among the breakers, from pure ignorane : of the navigation of whig waters. It is a common remark with whigs, thata great mistake was made when Mr | Clifford was substituted for Mr. Winthrop, who, to equal | abilities with thove of the former gentleman, unites that | large experience in political life without which no amount of talent can be of much use to its possessor in high ata- tions. The eyes of the whig party (they are rather melancholy orbs about these days) are concentrating themselves upon Mr. Winthrop, whose position, I ven- ture to predict, will soon be greater than ever in Massa- chusetts. He is to be the Greatheart that is to lead the whig’pilgrims to the celestial city of victory—if he can— to fight that giant Despair known as the coalition, and Slaygcod, whose nature it is to eat men—especially whigs, The Legislature is working hard, in the hope to rise on the 8d of May, but business presses on that body ama- singly, and it may favor us with its prosenee for weeks yet. The process of grinding out banks is going om with much energy, and but few who apply are refused. This will only make the day of reckoning the more severe when | it shall come. The ‘‘ Hale Festival,’’ which is to take place on the 5th of May, promises to be the affair of the season, All the great shots of free soilism are to be present, and will compete in the art of drawing the long bow. Even Mr. Surnner, who never speaks except on the genteelest of oc- casions, will ‘(take his grub’ with the free soilers for onee, though the dish to which most of his friends would welcome him with vast sincerity is the cold shoulder. But as some time has elapsed the di Webster—just six ronths, in fact—most li found the use of his tongue again, i rently commenced an imitation of Mr. Clay’s eonduct, who undertook to eat his way to the Presidency, but without more success than is likely to attend the Granite State orator in the same pleasant line of business. In England, a political dinner is not a bad mode of election- ecring, especially as the eaters are not restricted to water im the way of drink; but here it is @ sort of invasion of the rights of the sovereign people. What business hi man to sit down to a dinner of half a dozen courses, a profuse dessert, when lots of his constituents may be Asficiens in bread and cheese? An evening paper has acme dark and obseure allusions to new modes of obtaining light. Oil, it appears, is to be obtained, abundantly and with great cheapness, from coal, by an improved process in distillation; and gas ia to be made from benzole, one of the results of the processof | the distillation of coal. Actual facts are treading fast upon the splendid imaginings of Sir Epicure Mammon. It is in contemplation, I understand, to introduce Terry's cast iron paving into further use here. Some five months since, Howard street was paved in this way, and the opinion is that it has more than answered public ex- ectations. It is an ingenions invention, that ef Mr. ‘erry. 1 wrote you an account of it last November. The Metropolitan Railroad bill has been reparted to the Legislature. The company are authorized to eon- scruct railways inthe streets of Boston and Roxbury. On | these street lines horse power alone can be employed. | ‘The capital is half a million of dollars, and the charter is for fifty years, unless the cities should desire to buy the ros, which they are authorized to do om paying the eost | and ten per cent additional. The Cambridge railroad charter bas also been reported. By it a railroad is au- | thorized from Cambridge to Boston, and through the streets of the two cities. These conveniences are much needed, for it is impossible to exaggerate accounts of the | crowded condition of our streets, to which the vehicles | plying between Boston and Roxbury and Cambridge | rgely contribute. Mr. Jonas Chickering on Tuesday last purchased of the city a lot of land containing almost 200,000 feet, on which he pro to erect a pianoforte manufactory, four stori ch and 200 fest in length. The land is on Tre- mont road, on the west side, near Northampton street. Mr. Pearson, justice of the peace in Lowell, has latel; been epforeing the liquor law with s great deal of seal He makes very eummiary work with persons brought be- fore him. He is said to have some eecentrie notions on orthography, and bis modes of spelling are not altogether the same as those which find favor with the gentlemen of | the Supreme Court. His jurisdiction has been called in question; but some gentlemen of the liquor law party are backing him up stoutly, giving that undoubted proof of their sincerity which is found in the overt act known as the paying of money, whieh, next to loaning it, is the wost sublime act of man in’ hie social relations. The} consulted Judge Merrie on the subject, it is untleratood, and having obtained from him an opinion that Mr. Pearson's conduct is legal, they came down very liberally with the funds. Some of them ‘gave $100 each, and others $: by however. is but against liquor in Several thousand dollars are to be raised, so that itary sixews may not be wanting in this modern Jug-urthine war. The law has always been rather popular than otberwise in Lowell, where, until the return of the whigs to power, it was euforced with considerable effect. Ax the whiga have not had the nerve or sense to cut up the law, root and branch, its friends have turned their attention once more to its enforcement. As to the difficulties of so doing, they hold that they are to be | found, not in the law itself, but in the law's officers. A few such men as Dir. Pearson would, they think, soon send ‘old King Alcohol’ to look after the Stuarts and the Bourbons. Jam inclined to think that tha next six or eight months will prove the very «aturnalia of fanati- cism. A dozen of our “first men” have raised $30,000 for the | benefit of that excellent institution, the Boston Athe- | nreum, and the um will doubtless be largely increased. The proposition to rubmerge the Athenwum’ in the new City Library has been attended with the happy effect of rousing its friends, who are now strenuously exerting themselves to the endof making it a more useful institu- tion than ever. Mr. Jonathan Phillips has given the large sum of $10,000 to the City Library, the interest of which is to be applied ennuaily, for ever, to the purchase of books for that institution. ‘With this sum, the great Mw ($50,000), a number of smaller nd quite a collection of books already mada, the library will start well. After all that is said about the‘ fogeiam ’ of our ‘* first men, ”’ it inust be admitted | that they have a fine sense of the worth of literature, azdare open banded in support of it. Where there is | ove man who would give away money, there are hun- | dreds who would sell thgir lives. | These are very “‘atriking’ times indeed. Tho opera- tives at various callings ave strack for better wag here, or have it in eoutemplation #0 to do. Kven tho, | worthy servants of the public, the waiters at the hotel | tired of waiting for their’ wages to raise themselves, have risen for a better remuneration. In some in | stances, they have been successful, and as their | demands wre moderate, I presume that they will all ultimately get what they desire, The “atrikers’’ eamnot be blamed for thoir conduct, as they have acted in pure seli-defence. The price of everything that goes to the support of ordinary life is euormous. Reuts, ia partieu- lar, are killingly high, and in too many instances are col- lected under cireurostances of ferocity that would cause { devil to blush, if it could be enpposed, without injustiee, | that any other being save » biped under the dominion of avarice, was ever engaged in them. & How to fill the vacancy on the Common Pleas bench has | caused Gov. Clifford much trouble. In making his ap. pointments, the Governor bas rather favored the Webster branch of his party. The gentleman who succeeded Mr Fleteher on the Supreme bench went off to Europe imme- diately after Scott's nomination, though he was a capital stump speaker, and was relied upon to do party work. The gentleman who has been made Sherif of Worcester voted the Webster electoral ticket. It eo ha med that | in no part of the State was there less Webstecism ; sworg the whigs than in Worcester. There the whigs, during the last campain, were quite | as free soilish as the free soilers themaelves, | You how popular the appointments | | mentio been there espec ally when it shall be | recollected that Mr. Merrick, the democrat appointed to the supreme bench, is also a Worcester man. It is | pretty strongly anapected thet the “anti-whig” majority of Worce-ter, which last year was only about 6.000, will thie year be raised to 10.000. Mr. Brinley now one of ffolk Senators, and a gentleman ef good standing his party and before the public, bas been promi neotly mentioned for the vacant judgeship, and one would | think that the Governor, who ow his election entirel: to influences brought to'bear frem Suffolk in his behait, might fora moment pretermit his regards for the coali tion counties, and do something for a whig place. Mr Drinley’s appointment would be satisfactory to the whig party, apd would be favorably received by the people generally. tremendous thunderstorm leat night, beiag od of the season, operations ia the atmosphe ne beving comenced early, The thunder was ¢ ‘ tropical article, the lightning inereased ¢) t j rooms, and the rain night have ts a very tolerable laltetion of the open 4} 6 80) Neale dood, ALGOMA | the p We published our usual abstract of the prin- cipal imports and exports of Canada, both by the St. Lawrence and from and to the United States, and now lay before our readers a statement of the trade and navigation of the great lakes, comprised in the official returns recently laid before the Pro- vincial Legislature for 1852.

Before concluding this abstract of statistics con- nected with the trade and navigation of the great lakes, which derives additional interest from their important bearing upon the question of reciprocity, which must necessarily engage the attention of Con- gress during its next session, we shall merely advert to the business of the St. Ann’s Lock, at the entrance of the immense Ottawa river, into which large and numerous rivers empty, connected with extensive lakes that are situated in a most fertile and delightful country, where the grape come to per- fection during the summer in the open air, and penetrating far away into the territory of the Hud- son Bay Company-—whose forests are resonant with no other echoes than those of the woodman's axe— lose only inhabitants are the bear, the wolfe, the beaver and the loupeervier, and the still untamed indian, who there hold undisputed dominion—for pore of showing how little civilization and t have effected that vest portion of Lower setticme Can 5 hich passed this lock daring red for an American port, were 7.787 tons of boards and other sawed lumber ; and the entire quantity of goods and merchandise that passed up wards that iT, was 11.494 tone; while the total amount of pr ty transported downwards, incla ding 725°5 toms of lumber, staves and firewood, 20. It is, however, to state that among the enumerated articles sent down the Otto- wa, were 209 tons of butter, 173 tons of flour, 53 tons of oats, 33 tons of oatmeal, and 63 tons of pork ; that agriculture has made some progress, and @ an indication ot the undeveloped re- sources of a tract of territory well calculated for im- provement, and which the provincial government refer locking up in timber berths, to laying out in ‘ips, and opening roads Akers ey may be reached—the only effect of which mistaken’ policy is to demoralize, degrade, and impoverish all who are engaged in lumbering pursuits, to prevent the de- velopement of the resources of this fine country, and to prevent “the wilderness from blossoming as the rose. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, MONEY MARKET, Sarvrpay, April 30—6P. M. ‘The upward movement in fancy stocks has been most effectually arrested. Within the past week or so prices have not varitd much, and the fluctuations have been so uniform that there is hardly one per cent difference compared with quotations current at the close of the market on Saturday last. This morning, at the opening, the market was heavy, and prices considerably depressed, Morris Canal declined % per cent; Erie Railroad, 4; Crystal Palace, 10; Cumberland Coal, 34; Parker Vein, 34; Harlem, 3; Hudson R. Railroad, %; Reading Railroad, 34; Norwich&kWorcester, 3{; Florence & Keyport, 9 ; Penn- sylvania Coal Company, 34. There was a strong disposi- tion to sell, and buyers take hold with a great deal of re- luctance. Most of the purchases made are for the pur- pose of sustaining prices by keeping up an appearance of activity, which does not in reality exist. ‘The receipts at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of this port today amounted to $76,677 66. Payments, $75,611 13, Balance, $6,879,797 05. &.We understand that the Great Northern Lead Mining Company have sent to market 276 pigs of lead, which have been received by their agents in this city 200 more are on the way, and 200 will be here week after next. ‘The company will now forward weekly supplies.

Shipments, in consequence, instead of showing a large increase for the season, as they would have done had the State canal been in order, as it should have been six weeks ago, are to about the same amount as they were to the corresponding time last year. For the week ending Saturday last, 26th instant, they were 17,849 tons, and for the season 59,312 tons. The tonnage on the Schuylkill Navigation, for the week ending on Thursday, was 21,699 tons, and for the season 109,223 tons. This is some few thousand tons in advance of the tonnage to the same time Igst year. The Reading Rail- road Company brought down, for the week erding on Thursday, 30,880 tons, and for the fiscal year, thus far, 442,095 tons, being a falling off of some 47,000 tons on last year’s business to same time. The delay in opening the Delaware Division has had the effect probably of in- creasing trade on the Morris Canal, to the loss of the Del- aware and Raritan Canal. We notice that the receipts on the Morris Canal, for the week ending on Saturday last, were $6,833—corresponding week last year, $2,348—in- crease, $4,481. Total receipts this season, $18,824—last year, to corresponding period, $3,440—increase, $15,375. The friends of the company are talking of a dividend on the common stock.
