Wile a student in Rome he distinguished nimself in a disputation upon mathematics before the college of Cardinals, and was highly commended by that body, than wnom no more critical judges could perhaps be found in Europe. HIS LOVE FOR HISTORY arose to the dignity of a passion, and his wonderful memory made him a dangerous opponent in any contest wirich necessitated a reference to prece- dents. He said himself that adate or any event once impressed upon his mind was never erased, His ‘Evidences of Catholicity”’ will forever remain the stable bulwark of the Church for whose protec- tion he wrote it, and Professor Morse, of teie- graphic fame, can give feeling evidence of the rade force with which his blows fell and the accuracy with which they were directed. About the time that the “Know Nothing party” began to gather strength the Professor imadvertentiy pub- lished as a fact that Lafayette had said to him that the liberties of this country, if ever overthrow! would succumb to the tyrannical encroachments | Catholic priests. The Archbishop, at that time Bishup .of Louisville, flatly denied the asse! tion—and, in the controversy that ensued—Pro- Jessor Morse being compelled to retract the allegation that he had heard Lafayette make use of the expression—displayed a much more mumate knowleage of French history, and the books and Li of the great French patriot than his discom- ited opponent. His manner partook of the region from whence he came. HE WAS FREE, OPEN-HEARTED AND BLUFF, and possessed in an eminent degree all the frank. ness which characterizes the inhabitants of the Western States, and yet, perhaps, none more fully appreciated or more perfectly sustained the dignity of the high ofMice which he held. fis love of the people was intense—not altogether those nursed in the lap of luxury and clothed in purple and fine linen, though his respect for them was unbounded, but the great masses who were to be benefited and improved by his teachings and example, and who really stood in need of his fath- erly admonitions, His heart poured ou: for them and his hand and purse ever kept pace with its pul- sations.

The remains of Martin John Spalding, late Arch- bishop of Baltimore, Primate of America and Apostolic Delegate of His Holiness Pope Pius IX., now tie in state in the rear parior of the episcopal zesxtence on Charles street, since yesterday morning, at eleven o'clock, a continuous stream of lige has entered the front door on Charles street, filed to the leit through the front parlor to the temporary resting place of the great prelate, around the bier and out again through the hall to pass away by the Cathedral grounds to the ‘@reat ocean from whence it sprang. The wealthy and the lowly, the patrician and nelot, zealous Catholics, bigoted Methodists, ardent Episcopalians, exclusive Presbyterians, politicians, Jawyers, mercbants, doctors, 911 sects, classes and professions, have merged themselves for the nonce With one object, to gaze for the last time upon the -Gead features of this great and good man, to pay the last sad tribute of respect to the memory of one ‘whom the whole community loved. Your corre- spondent paused yesterday at the entrance for the Multitude to dwindle down, but as well might he have waited for the river to pass by. THE REMAINS AS THEY APPEARED YESTERDAY, The remains of the Archbishop reposed upon a ‘catafalque im the centre of the room. At each cor ner 1s placed a lighted candle, held by a rich candle- stick, draped in mourning, and at the feet a can- delabra, containing eight candies, supporting a large crucimx. The body is robed in the vestments to which his dignity in the Church entitled him while alive, On his head is the mitre and his form 4s arrayed in a heavily embroidered chassuble, the alb and the purple cassock he was wont to wear in the celebration of high mass, His hands are crossed upon @ crucifix, while from hig neck there hangs by a chain a diamond cross of ex- ceeding richness and value, HIS _UNSELPISH DEVOTION to those around’and about him, created for the Arch- bishop troops of friends, who never grew weary In his service, and whose hearts to-day acknowledge a void which time alone can fill, To these traits are doubtless due the unbounded love and veneration for bis memory which pervade all classes and sects of people, and the profound gloom which has spread itself tke @ pall- over the community on account of his — decease, though it has been hourly expected for many weeks, If there was one subject more than another to which he gave the strictest attention and his whole energies, 1t was Catholic education, He be.

Bishop Whelan, though a very active and stirring man in his diocese, is much too old to assume the cares and responsi- bilities of the Archbishopric of this im- mense diocese, he being now sixty-three years of age, In point of fact neither of these names has been suggested to the Pope, Arch- dishop Spalding did enclose three names, from among which he deatred his successor to be chosen, and among them was that of BISHOP BAYLEY, OF NEW JERSEY. ‘The Bishop of New Jersey is wel! and favorably known to Pope Pius IX., aud will in all probability, it he 80 desires, be the next Archbishop of Balti- more, ‘This is the firm belief of those who have more means of knowiug the truth than any one now lving, Save une Pope himself.

My explanation not satisfying the Clerk he asked to examine the orders given by the teachers, when the Board adjourned to see the village Clerk, who had the orders in his possession. Not finding the village Clerk, I tnen requested the Board to go to the school and see the teachers, whereupon Hddy re- liea, “Vd see you damned first,” with other insuit- hg remarks, which are unfit for publication, at the same ume striking ine in the moutu witn his fist be- 1ore I was aware of lis Intention; 1 then retaliated vy giving him @ sound drubbing, and were it not for hig retreat would nave punished him as he de- served, ‘These are the facts of the case, and not as they have appeared in the New York papers. IJ also wish to remark that the maiicious insinuations cir- culated regarding my accounts are without the shadow of foundation, and are merely in- tended for election purposes by a clique of politicians, who, it is well known, are un- der the pay of the gas company, which corporation is determined to expend any amouat of money to defeat my election in order that they may be able to succeed in obtaining certain claims against the town, I also desire to state that tnis company, through ©. v. conan has made overtures to me, that if ha ad De erty va ao Oppose my electior ch, of 10 do. se a rn OF ONS It.

Shipping Notes. The three-masted schr Willard G Patton, 518 tons, of Bos- ton, was lowered from the largest of the screw docks, foot of Market street, yesterday, after having received her first suit of yeilow metal sheathing and having some repairs to her stern. Schr Caroline Hall, 117 tons, of Frederica, Del, was low- ered from the central screw dock adjoining on Thuraday, atter having been clenoed and painted, and her place is now oceupiad by schr Arthur, 180 tons, belonging to Fairhaven, for the purpose of having keel repaired (recently damavea by bemg ashore near Norfolk) and receiving a suit of yellow metal eheathing, Steamer Bridgeport, ot the Bridgeport line, was lowered from the large balance dock foot of Pike street on Thursday Jast, after having patched ber copper and repaired one of her pipes. Ship Resolute, 1645 tons, recently purchased by Capt J C Nichols frdm Meesrs Williams & Guion, was taken on the large sectional dock toot of Rutgers street on Thursday for examination, and towered soon after. Messrs A A Low & Bro’s ship N B Palmer, 1125 tons, now occupies this dock, being raised for the purpose of stripplug, calking and re- metailing. Schr Potosi, previously reported, was iowered from the small sectional dock adjoming yesterday, after having beer stripped, calked aud remetalied, and was followed by the three-masted sont Lizzie Batchelder, 384 tons, of Philadel. phia, for the purpose of calking buits and painting bottom, Bris Bismarck (Br), 424 tons, is on the sectional dock foot of Clinton street recetving considerable new plank along the Water line, and to be cleaned and painted. ‘The Peop! dry dock, foot of Gouverneur street, have had up during the past few days steam:ugs President, to ad- just wheel, and Frank Pidgeon, Jr, to calk; also the brig Edith, 197 tons, of Boston, to paint bottom—tne latter vessel being now on. Messrs Merritt & Sparks’ dock adjoining have had ap steamtugs Kpsilon, to sheath stem, and J G Stevens, for slight repairs. Brig Centaur sttll remains on Messra O'Connell & Co's Erie Basin sectional dock, replanking bottom. Prof Whiting, of the Coast Survey, recommends the cut- ting of a channel from the southwest part of Edgartown har- bor through the Sonth Beach, 1t is estimated to cost not less than $20,000. Ship Calcutta, Robertson, from Calcutta for Boston, which put into Bermuda on the 12th uit short of provisions, and salied for destination on the 17th, has not yet made her ap- pearance, and fears are beginning to be entertained for her safesy. But when the state of tue weather for some time past is taken into consideration her absence may be readiiy accounted for without exciting uneasy apprehensions. Some anxiety is expressed for the safety of the fine new ship Franconia, Capt Marshall, which left Newburyport 18 days ago for New York, as she has not been heard from mince she sailed. There have been terrific northwest gales experienced of the coast recently, and it is probable that the Franconia, being 1n light trim, has been blown far off to sea, but will be heard from in due time, The Franconia was built by Mr John Currter, and has been sold to parties in New York.
