Vexilla Regis prodeunt. Anew banner is raised on the walls of our salya- tion. It is set up by a strong hand, and one that cannot fail. When the soldiers see a new standard advanced by the orders of their chief they prepare assiduously to follow it. The reason of our great exultation at this new definition is, because the saints and the holy ones of past ages, who have ds- fendei this doctrine, who desired to tive that they might see it defined—nave predicted that this de- claration would be followed by a time of great rest and advancement to the Holy Catholi: Church. New graces were to be kindled in the hearts of the faithful, and new multitudes were to flock from the paths of error into the great highway of God’s truth, Let the Catholics of America ackoowledge their past \dity of faith, and hasten to shake it off. Let us betake ourselves to the great Patroness—Mary of Immaculate Conzeption. Let faith, and hope, and charity, grow s*roog withia us, and let us remem: ber that God has set our task before us—that of being, all of us, in our various places, missionaries ef the “ Tabernacle of God with men,” whose great business it is to save our own souls, and to convert this young and mighty nation to the love of God who was born, for love of it and us, of the Immaculate ange: @ following is the despatch received by the Univers of Paris by telegraph:— Steyna, Dec. 10, 1854. The Pope, officiating at St. Peter’s, has promulgated, after the Gospel, (at eleven o'eloek) the expected decree, ‘The Immaculate Conception is declared the faith of the Church, and whoever denies it is a heretic, Two hundred bishops were present. Never has such 4 multitude been seen. Rome is intoxicated with joy. Leuis Venillot accompanies this announcement with the following words:— ey has been coaceived immaculate; it is the feithof the Church; whoever denies it is a heretic ! What great things in these words, and what a spec- tacle given to the world! Persuaded that the ma- jority of those who have thought to raise serious ob- ro against this dogma itself, and the form of its proclamation, have only wished to use a liberty which seemed to them still permitted, and are now submissive as their very title of Catholics, which they invoke to give more weight to their reasoning, obliges them to be, we be tempted to rejoice at an opposition from which their obedi- ence will draw more glory and merit. On the one part, abandoning their vain opinions, henceforward abolished, they will see the high truth which they bad concealed trom them; they will bless God for the honor that he has done to human naturein draw- ing from the midst even of its corruption that creature so perfect, so pure, so resplendent with the imeval innocence. fore becoming Our Mother yy the Gift of Jesus expiring on the cross, Mary, as a Gaughter of Adam, wasour sister. It ds, then, human nature which God has willed to repair in her, and to remove the offence of sin, which had its pe in all the rest of the human family. Sach has ven the love of God for man,and the affection that he has preserved for that work of bis bands. Be- fore redeeming by the blood of his only Son, and, if we dare speak s0, as if to encourage himself to this incomprehensible saciifice, God has wished that heaven Might see upon the esrth that innocence which it had lost, that immaculate homan natare which he had created to reign over all visible things, to love him and to be loved by him, and of which he had said in his fatherly love: “ I have done well!” — Viditque Deus cuncta que fecerat; et erant valde bona. And Mary appeared, according to the expres- sion of Boussuet, ‘as Christ commenced,” in order to be at the same time the source and the image of Hin whom the lamenting earth expected, and whom the astonished heaven was to contemplate; of Him who, to save men, consented to be like them in everything save ain, and to endure all the weight of their miseries, but not the shamefal root of those miseries; as the penalty of sin, and rejectiog its stain. Therefore Mary was preserved from the original stain and conceived immaculate, in order to give a blood sufficiently pure to cleanse the world, and to be the pattern of that creatare formerly so perfect and so glorious, for the benefit of whom such a blood was about to flow. Sach isthen the deformity and the horror of sin, that God has been pleased for himself, and for his Holy Mother, to undergo all the sorrows of the Cross which have been necess: to abolich the empire of sin; bat He bas not submitted to the stain of sin for bimeelf nor for her. And such is the favor that we have received througn Mary and through Jesus, that that indelible stain can be effaced. ‘© man,” said St. Leo, “ recognise then today thy dignity, and sanctified as thou art by the grace which asso. ciates thee to the divine nature, do not full again into thy first vileness.’ As tothe proclamation of the dogma, such as it has just been accomplished, by the plenitude of the Pontifical power, but according to the holy rules which its prudence knows always how to impose on itself, it wou'd no longer be even a temerit», it would be a pure folly, and let us say the word,a childish folly, to raise i Gas contest whatever. The dogma is recognized; it exists as if it had been proclaimed at Nice, or at Jerusalem in the cenacle. It exists since the commencement of the Church; it will exist until the consummation of time; it is trne for all the duration of the church, which will lest upon the earth as long as the earth itself, and which will not perish with it; it has fora rampart the blood of the martyrs. This is all that is neces- sary to say, and such is, when the question is of the ir given to Peter, the determination of all con- ta, of all the heresies, of all the revolations. Peter arises, he speaks, he commands, he is victor. —L' Univers.

One has lately been estab- lished in the Sixth ward, in Reade street, adjoining Stewart's dry goods establishment. On Toursday over 500 applicants were supplied, and on Fridsy nearly 700. However much Park orators may de- claim against soup, there is no question but that it is highly relished by those who apply for it. The sum of $4,000 contributed by the members of the New York Corn Exchange for the relief of the poor, has been divided as follows:—$800 to the Brooklyn Associaticn, and $3,200 to the New York Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor. We have received the following hints on the hard times, which we publish for the benefit of those whom it may concern:— “ FIDDLING FOR THE POOR.” TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. M— Squaxe, Jan. 4, 1855. An article in the New York Haraup of the 34 inat., entitled ‘‘Fiddling for the Poor,” has attract ed my attention; and although I cannot, like your. self, attribute the present depression in business to our “extravagance in dress,” you will, I feel con4- dent, permit one of the so-called “upper ten’’ to offer, through the columns of your excellent journal, her views in regard to the project. T would suggest to the ladies to have a calizo ball for the _—_ of the poor, aud [cn mo one io | & dreas exceeding one jog > ‘iter the ball exch lady can and should en her dress t> Mr. Pease, or some other mn acquainted with the necessities of that class whose benefit the ball is intended, for distribution. This would ive many a shivering one a comfortable garment addition to their part of the proceeds, and en- tirely overcome your chief objection to a ball. You wili not, T trust, think me ‘‘out of my sphere” if Taleo suggest to the + gentlemen who will rally at this appeal to their generosity, to adopt for the occasion, some unexpersive dress, of strong ma- terial, to be afterwards disposed of in like manner. Trusting these puggestions may find favor with those who bave the airection of the proposed ball in contemplation, and wishing you a happy New Year. A Frienp To Tug Poor. EASY WAY 10 HELP THE POOR, ‘TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD, In addition to the lack of good fires arid shelter, the very poor in our large cities are suffering for the lack of seasonable clothing, while in the closeta and chests of our wealthy and middling classes moth and mold are consuming any quantity of cast off and forgotten coats, dresses, flannel sacks, shirts and shoes. Why cannct Mr. Pease or some of our regged schools, (there is one, 467 Sixth avenue, called Miss Dow’s ragged school,) or some of the charitable institutions in whom the public has con- fidence, advertise that on certain days of the week they wil send through given streets wagons bearing | suitable signs, and wita honest drivers and attend- ants, when at the sound of the bell the people can bring out their bundles and part with what “ will not impoverish them and bless the poor ea 2 A COMPROMISE PROPOSED, TO THK EDITOR OF THE HERALD. It appears that the capitalists and the heads of working establishments, who, from appreheusions of loading money by continuing their branches of business under the costs and ¢ffecta of the last year's high rates paid to carpenters, masons, ship builders and laborers generally, have been obliged to stop their working operations of all kinds. These citi- zens of wealth might receive reuse from the operating branches, or might © pro] to them, that they would recommence immediately all their above branches of work, in order to emoloy the poor and unemployed workmen at one-half the former wages, so that the workmen migat gat, as the vulgar saying is, “a corn bread loaf” ia of “fine wheat,” for their families, and thus eave them from total starvation. If work- men and laborers would thus propose to act until the lst of Mey. or better times, it might induse butlders and shipbuilders to expend their money on speculative employment—and no doubt would say to the working man also: “as you have induced us to venture our money with your half-pay labor, at | the risks of profit or loss, now, we will undertike that in the summer, or at any time that we can realize a reasonable profit on the joint investment of ourmoney and your cheap to voluntarily pay over or give'te each of you such additional compensation as the result of the sales will in our opiaion parmit. | We will take down the name of each individaal | who offers himself, his occupation and the duration of his service, 80 as to know what proportion of compensation our benevolent disposition will war: | rant us in distributing hereafter. “ Such might bo | the langusge of employers to the employ yand that such anagreement might take placs is the | prayer of a disinterested but humane citizen. Dean Swirr. Sentence ofthe Baltimore Post Office Robber. | [From the Baltimore American, January 5.] Yesterday being the day on which it was stated that Judge Giles would detiver his desision on the motion of the counsel of Martin, for an arrest of judgment, a large number of persons assembled in the court room to await the result. As soon as the court opened and the counsel appeared, Jadge Giles stated his reasons for denying the request of | the counsel for Martin, and overruled the motion. The Marshal was then ordered to bring Martin into court, and at twenty-five minutes after twelve the prisoner appeared. He looked care-worn, and evi aon eee under considerable emotion. He was 86: within the bar until the court called upon him and asked if he had wet ptt fhe say why sentence should not be pronounced against him. Martin rose, and in a tremulous voice thanked the court and those engaged in his trial, for the kind- ness shown him. He would there protest hia inno- cence of the crime of which he was charged. He hoped the court would exercise a spirit of humanity, and show all the mercy which its duty would allow. Judge Gi'es then said—William H, Martin, yon have been indicted, as a employed in the department of the Post 0! ice, for embezzling two letters which came to your ssion, and were in- tended to be 1d by post, containing articles of value, to wit: two goid coins, and qith stealing from the said letters the said gold coins. You have been defended by learned and able counssl, who have eloquently pressed every point and every cir- cumstance that could be invoked in your behalf, and after a fair and impartial trial, you have been convicted by a jury of your country.

INTERESTING LETTER FROM OREGON ON THE CROPS OF THE LAST YEAR IN THAT TERRITORY—GOOD REPORT—PROSPEOTS AND PROSPERITY OF OREGON. Maxton Counrr, Oregon, Oct. 30, 1854. James G. Berner, Esq., EDITOR OF THE NEW YORK HERALD. Dram Scm— Your circular of Sept. 4 has been handed to me by Mr. George I. Curry, Secretary of Oregon Territory, with s request that I would reply to it. ‘With us the past season has not been in many respects an unusual one. It has been somewhat colder, with more rain during the summer and early autumn, and crops of all kinds heve bsen later in coming to maturity, by from two to three weeks. Indian corn is not cultivated very extensively ia this country; more was planted the spring, though, than ever before, and I do not the sverage yield per acre below that of any former ‘eason. In some places it has been injured by the early frost—early for this country—about the fifth cf the present month. The yield per acre of the wheat crop is not much, if any, below the usual average; and then the quantity of land in wheat has been much greater than heretofore. I have BO means of estimating the amoun's produced the Present season, but we bave certainly a large sur- plus of this grain. ‘The oat crop 1s not inferior to that of Say, focmee seseon. The potatoe crop, as has always been the cage, is excellent. What is called the potawe rot isnot known in Oregon. Our grass crop is good, and it is never otherwise in thiscountry. We have not many meadows yet, nor pastares of cultivated grasses, but depend mainly for our stock on the native grass, as luxuriant a growth of waoich now covers our rich prairies and green hill sides as I bave been accustomed to see in Illinois in the month of June. This is the autumn growth, on which we expect our cattle and herses to winter. There are not yet many bearing orchards in Oregon, but what we have give promise of supe- rior excellence. Apples end peara are a gure srop with us, and always of the first quality, In a few years we eball have fruit in great abundance; as yet it is scarce and high priced, Spples selling readily for ten and twelve dollara per bashel. The price of most other of our agricultural pro. ductions is low. Wheat is worth from se- venty five to one dollar per bushel, oats about fitty cents, and potatoes not more thau twenty-five cents. In this country agriculture is yet in its infancy. It has been but a little time sinee our fertile lands have been taught to prodace the various necessities of civilized lite,and now we have plenty and to spare. Our climate is so tem- rate, and our seasons so uniform, that it cannot fs long before Oregon will take a high place among agricultural States. In this season of general dearth and bad crops, while we sympathize deeply with other countries, we cannot but thank Heaven mors than ever that it is our good fortune to dwell by the green hills in the fruitful Wn, of Oregon.

Santa Anna’s Enemies on the Other Side of the Rio Grande— The Presidential Election in Tamaulipas —Storming of Morelia in Michoacan by the In. surgents—The Revolution of the North—The Steamer Nautilus in Danger—The Weather, &c. Passing events in the interior of Mexico have again greatly revived the hopes of Santa Anna’s op- ponents on the other side of the river, as the plot against the Dictator’s power evidently thickens, and he is unequal to the task of mastering his enemies and rivals. The late miserable farce, mis:alled an election, in Tamaulipas, resulted in its vote being given for Santa Anna, although Reynosa, and other small places, not under the immediate sway of bayonets, voted for that personification of liberal institutions, Don Juan Bautista Cevallos. In Monterey, the capi- tal of Nuevo Leon, in Linares, and other places, the vote was given in tavor of the illustrious Don Luis de la Rosa, ex-Minister Plenivotentiary, &c., in Washington. Gen. Cardona, civil and military governor of Nuevo Leon, @ vulgar, illiterate, semi- civilized old trooper, fined the ayuntamiento or municipel council of the city, in tue sum of fifteen hundred pot for nes ae the vote spent his 9 volumes a3 to the nature of the election. The fact is now known as to the storming of Morelia, the capital of Michoacan, by the revolution- ists on the 24th ult., altnough it is pretended by the government piees that a reinforcement arrived in ime to save the city and drive out the storming party. Don Domis go Echagaray, who had been ap- pointed Governor and Commacding-Gene-al by Santa Anna, was killed at the Palace by one of the storming columns. Matters are pepe, assuming sncb an aspect that very few reail; Dictator will eustain himself much longer; and what, in fact, has so far kept him in power, is the circum- statce that Alvarez in cold weather cannot move his pintos from the South, and consequently there is nothing to fear from him in Mexico before the | winter is over. | On the 11th of this month the Mexican Consul in this piace published a circular, informing all the late revolutionists that he was iar dl authorized b: His Serene Highness to grant a fail pardon to all who would accept of his not a single one of the re! the merciful offer. They took upon it as adding | insult to Ree As yet nothing decisive has been done by the | leaders of the lute revolution, who continue here anticipating a sudden change of affairs. The ua- Willingness on the part of eome of the leaders to | allow any of the military to take a hand in the Movement bas retarded their operations; aud I observe that a reaction in public feeling has taken oe in favor of Carvajal, who was here some four ys ago and had an interview with them. Should any movement take place shortly, he will certaialy be one of ite - One of the reasons that makes him a favorite is his uncompromising, undying hostility to the military as a class, as alao | the little or no love he feels from education for the standing church in Mexico. The steamer Nautilus in her last trip from New Orleans, was blown off the Brazos Sintiago bar down to Tampico, and after sustaining considerable in, in ber machinery, and making a narrow cae with all her passengers, su in for- t ly running into Tampico, when they almost considered her as lost. The most painful solicitade was felt for her fate, but she is now safely moored inside the Brazos Santiago bar. Sickness has in a manner subsided, and the frosts and cold weather we are now having will restore the place in a short time to its usual health. No visible for the better in the traffic of this place, nor will there be any before we have a om of rulers am our “magnanimous” neighbors. ppe and our le generally are well satisfied with their lot on tthe froutier.

The French pa have recently announced the desth of M. Léon Faucher, which took at Marseilles, where he was attacked by typhus fever, on his way to Hyéres in search of » milder climate for the relief of his already broken health. Asa member of the Chamber of Deputies and a Minister of the republic, as a Fellow of the Institute of France for the Division of Moral and Political Science, and as the author of several economi- cal works, besides having been one of the most active and able contributors to the political press of France when it flourished in the fullest enjoyment of freedom and power, the name of Léon Faucher deserves not to i unnoticed here. Sprung from obscure parentage in he south of France, and uainted from childhood with form of adversity, Léon Faucher gave early proofs of his indomitab‘e energy and application, for even on the benches of the achool to which he was sent at Tou- louse, such was his confidence in his ova pwett, that he boasted he should one day be a Minister of State; and in the extraordinary vicisitudes of human affairs he lived to realize that boast, and to of extreme agitation aad life a remarkable proficiency in classical studies; and his career in Paris commenced in the humble capacity of tutor to the sons of M. Dailly, the postmaster of the capital. Early in the reign of Louis nitppe he became connected with the leading organs of the liberal press; first as a contributor to the Zemps, and afterwards as principal editor to the Courrier Mrancais; but always in steady support of the opinions of hin party, the Gauche, to which he inflexibly adhered through life. His style was clear, pungent, and argumentative, In 1845 he published’ his Etudes sur VAngleterre—a work in which the predilection he had always entertained for the institutions and the literature of that country was, perhaps,clouded by too sombre an estimate of their octal condition, But-ao economist in France, has ever contended with greater energy for the principles of free trade. In 1847, he embarked in more active politi- cal life, having been returned to the Chamber of Depu- ties as the representative of Rheims. The revolution of 1848 found hm in that, position, and Rheims again elected him to the Constituont Assembly. In 1849 he became a member of the first cabinet of Louis Napo- leon, then President of the Republic, and he filled the high post of Minister of the Interior on two successive occasions, until the near approach of the coup d'éat led Louis Napoleon to separate himself entirely from his constitutional advisers, M, Faucher indignantly repudiated all participation in the results of that revo- lution, and retired into private life. His obsequics were celebrated in Paris, in the presence of all the most eminent members ‘of the parliamentary party towhich M. Faucher had belonged, of his colleagues of the Institute, and of some members of the present overnment, for even his political antagonists acknow- ge the patriotism and integrity which distinguished him asa man of lotters and a politician, and paid this mark of respect to his memory.
