speech in yoor paper denying that tbe Popes of
Romo cave claimed ana exercised taopo-al power
over Catholics in tbl' aad other nations Mr Chand-
ler a politician has cerla'nly put forth views In op-
poitioa to what has generally been believed by both
Catholics and Protestants to be the whole history of
tbe Romlah Church. Now I appeal from Mr Chand
ler and his nnthoi'tfcs to Pope;Icounses and writers
approved at Rome I will first quote from Rev O.
S. Brownson who publishes a Review by authority
of twenty five b'tbops and archbishop and Is the
vrutnt undisputed Organ of the Catholic Church.
He prorr a that the Pope e do claim and exercise so
fur as pract'cable temporal power by Divine right
over all true Ctlbollcs In every nation In his Jan
usry number of 153 be tavt: "For every Ctthclie
at lea t ibe Cburch Is the f apreme Jadgr of the li-
mits and exient of her powers. She can be judged
by no one and this of lLc!f Implies ber absolute
supremacy and that tbe temporal order mast receive
its law from bir." "Whenever the oc
casion occored she asserted her power not In empty
word onlv bat la deed to judge aoverctgnkiogs
and Ceasar to bestow or tn take sway crowns to
depoo ungodly ruler and to absolve their subjects
from their oath of allegiance.1 Again Mr. Brownson
says: w The Popes may not awrl the power now.
because note it cannot be exercised with Its proper
temporal consequences ; but because ibey do not as
sert It we are not Io conclude that they do not now
po-css it or that they do not bold it by Divine
right."
All the distinguished Catholic writers whose
woiks have been approved by tbe Popes maintain
tbe same doctrine as Abbe Robrbscbcr esyi "In alt
mutters which interest conscience civil tegldallon
Is snbirdinatrd to the legislation of tbe Catholic
Church and that the constitution of princes and all
the temporal lawt contrary to tbe canons of the
Church are null and void.
Th4 council ot Lateran gave this power to the
Pope. Ilwastbre decreed la the third chapter ss
fa low :

And let Uio secular towers be warned and Induced

You w!h lo know tbe value of ire Stock Df tho
8ueex Iron Company and If It Is a confide concern
or one of the moonshine affairs so often met witb.
I did not know much about the Company until I
made Inquiry at your request I And that It is a bobta
and nothing eiae ; 1 made Inquiry in Morris town last
week beieg there attending Court and coald find
out little or nothing but was reeommeded to Mr.
Smalley of Stanhope whom I went to see yesterday
and found that the property owned by the compsny.
Is covered by Mortgage to Its Talue and that it is
raally not worth any thing. I aaw the Secretary and
trirA 1st at a en of th CkmrlMn. t ht mm hat
said I eatd get one or Ibe President. Mr. E. Post tu H
ter with the Supplements and send you.
Mr. Smalley and his partner holds themorigage on
tbe C"tnpana property at Stanhope and will In all
Krobabillly foreclose nexlJune when tt Is due an-
na tbey succeed to swindle some body.
iy The question relative to sustaining the Col-
lin's line of s earners w as discussed witb great Inter-
est In tbe H"ue up to th last accounts. The line
was probably sustained. Mr. Vanderbllt had made
a preposition to .carry the mails semimonthly for
$13000 a trip but he does rot say what class of
boats he will have nor the I-ngth of time he will
require ou each trip Mr. Vanderbllt was severely
denounced In Congres. Oa tho loth the amend-
ment submitted by Mr. Olds appropriating S6S0C0

to Liverpool and back on condition tbst he and his
associates sbsll balld another steamship and hare H

If falling tu do so by neglect they shall transport the

agreed to and tbe bill was reported to the IIrtue and

Stbamboat Covrntici or tub Wkit In 1S51
there were 731 slcamboafa on the Western rivers
and lake wlib a total tonnage of 194342. It is es-
timated that there are at present 800 boats with a
total tonnage of 230000. More than two millions of
persons were in 1851 moved by steamboats on tbe
waters of tbe Wist exclusive of Lower Mississippi
Tho number Is much greater now. The commerce
oflhe Mississippi outlets both waye Is equal to one
hundred and fifty millions. The commerce of lbs
Ohio Valley In aleambote Is equal to eighty millions;
and tbe commerce of the lakes west of Buffilo la
equal to two hundred millions. Of thar lake com-
merce probably not one half It done In Bteambott.
Altogether we may safely estimate tbe value of
commerce carried on to Wee' em steamboats at fall
three hundred and thirty m llloual Tbaswefaaveof
slesmbost commerce in the West nine hundred
steamboats of two handred and flly thousand tons
traversing thirty thousand miles of coast and mo-
ving a commerce valued at three hundred and thirty

"Texan a Ilcpudiatlnc; State
The Houston Tclegrspb of the Slat Inst. says
"Ai we bad occasion (o remark the other Jay

abla the public abroad and especially tli6 money

We might refer to tho caso of Miuiselppl In proof of
this position or even t those of Maryland and
Pennsylvania in which latter States tho payment of
imeresi oniy wua suspended llut It is very evident
that a State whose honor is the only etcority Iho

nearly two thirds of a debt created to secure hir in-
dependence and which sho was tntlrcty able to pay

etlvod consisted of the Indcpendcnco of the country
and her vast domain 2H00Od 000 acres of which she
told the poorest third for S10 000 000 nearlv enuugh

the Comptroller Mr Shaw who Is tbe father of the
scaling system and who of all oihr men! Inlf reued
tu maintain tLe principle ou which li is founded re-
mark on his return from New York some two years
ago that Texas bad no public credit abroad."
We may here add that the very remark made by
Mr. Shaw ss above stated has been made by every
one of our. cl tiea. whose bustnois ia tba c'tles of
the North and In Europe has en bled thorn to know
tbe estimate that is placed on tbe credit of our State
While the editor of the Te'egrspb fully asbtts that
the sealing system bat prostrate! oar credit and
appearsAlso to admit the disvac d tnjaatlce of
that sys"n yet be bell-ves therais jio poslble
chance for tbe reryal of this orjast law which is
Inflicting to great an Ifjary oa as all. He then con-
cludes that the proposed plan of Internal Improve-
ment by tbe State can never be saccesfully carried
Into operation because It depeoda upon State credit .
which we have lost and which be iblnks wocnn
never reemer. becaue that law which destroys it
will never be repealed. We hare already endeav.
ered to show In somo previous ertlcle that the
very legislation which destroys the State eredl"
mast Is like manner destrcy tho credit of all char-
ters and all corporations which derive their exist-
ence from thai legislation If capitalists abroad can
not have confidence In bonds directly loaned by the
State for foar they may be repudiated how can they
have any more confidence In the bonds Iciued by
corporations wh'ch may at any time be aboIi hed
by an act oflegUlatloa? It tt State will not ret
pectltt solemn premises made directly to foreign
States and banking bouses. Is It reasonable to sup-
pose it will respect tho corporate prlriVges It has
granted to Its own euixens! The very argument
that operates against the credit of State bonds oper
ates much more forcibly against the boodi of any
company created by that State. T&is U confirmed
both by souad reason and actual experiment Aa
far as our observation has extended State bonds
aro nnifermily quoted higher Is tbe stock market
than the bonds of companies The Stale may just
as easily abrogate a company's charter as repudiate
Its own bonds. It has tbe same right to do the one
aa the other. If It Is argued by capitalists that tbe
State may scale Its bonds for tho reason that tbey
were told for lest than their face value (as It did its
promissory notes and tbe bonds of the Republic)
may It not also be urged as an ol jecllon to the com-
pany's bonds thai the State may abrogate Its char-
ter on the ground of unconstitutionality of mon
opoly etc or under the influence of any popular
excitement Andabouldthe charter be abrogated.
or any or Its privileges restricted or qualified by sub-
sequent legislation whet wculd the company 'a bondi
be worth We bare already Issued some forty or
fifty charters Invested with bounties and prlvllegea
surpassing In liberality any ever before Issn-d
absolutely glvlrg tho compsn'es our public lands io
quantises sufficient lo make several States of this
Union and yet these very charters with all their
immense territorial bonuses bare found no pur
chasers though tbe grantees have tried al the
money markets of Europe and America. If then
the charters themselves are considered valuers
what estimate woo'J eipittllsts put upon bonds
deriving all their value from the charters!
We believe tho editor of tbe Telegraph Is as sin
cere as he has been a zealous advocate of railroads ;
but we cannot possibly understand on what plan he
now proposes wo shall have them. Ho has tried tbe
corporate plan and admits IU failaro Vo has be-
come so disheartened that be Is oppoed to further
consultation on tbe snrjpet in the La Grange Con-
"SaRit nnv beinc fully piirauadcd that no good can

IheStalhaanosredit and thereforo all other sys-
tems or plans that are equally affected by this want
of credit In the State mast te at least iqually ob
jectionable fur the tame reason. Take for Instance
the plan of boildlt-g railroads by coanlics Wo all
know the counties hare not got tbe necesary money
and all they can do therefore is to issue county
bonds under a law authorizing them to do so with a
promie to pay the Interest annually by a county lax
lth the constat oflhe popu'ar role Bat lh ques
tion Is cou'd lhe coan'y bonds be negotlaled oa
better terms than State bonds? Would the capital-
ists and bankers of London. New York or Amster-
dam have mora faith la Ihe bonds of our comities
which tbey never before heard of than In tbe Slate
bonds! But say tbe objrc'ors to tbe Slate bonds
Texas is branded In the United Stales and Europe
as a repudiating btaler But we would ask: Is a
"repudiating Stats l'kely lo prevtnt Its counties or
corporations from also repudiating toould they take
a notion to do no T And might not a "repudiating
Statu' repudiate and repeal the very laws which
authorized th" Issue of those bcndi.
Suppose some fracd or mlrmaragement tn the
company or directors tbouM defeat tbe eolorprbe
(which hat often been the eai) and involve the
counties In a heavy d"bt without giving them any
toad is It reasonable to sippoe there would ho no
p polar excitement no efforts lo resist the psyment
of the annual tax to meet tbe Interest on the out
itanding bonds I MUbt tbey not t ay tbey had re
ceived no equivalent? ibatthey had been defrauded
twlndledl or that Ihe bonl holders were grasping
speculators and perhaps partuepa tnmimi In tbe
frand T And In cat of each pnpnlar clamor and re-
sistance to the tax with what prospect of success
eonld the bond holders appeal to the State Legist a
lure for redrnsi! What appeal to a "repudiating
Stateforredrcsagiipst a repudiating county! aod
a county too that la acting on Ihe precedent and
example of the Stale and using the very arguments
used by tho Stute In its own justification; Now we
ask If this ia not the train of reflection that would
bo taggested to any cautious and prudent man on
being applied to to make an Investment of his
money In our county bonds t
In short we know of no plan for building railroads
that must not depend cither directly or indirectly on
a Stale law and if repudiation l objectknsbleal all
it must be objectionable tbroughoul or as far aa
credit Is required ; for If repudiation Is fatal to credit
in tho great fountain of authorlly. It must taint every
stream that flows from that fountain. Giving there
fore the Telegraph! argument lis full force Ihe con-
claiioo appears to ns Inevitable that railroads lu
Texas can never be built oo credit at all and we
must Iherefore wall till we have the r-oney our-
selves Bat to wait till we have tbe ready money to Ihe
amount of the millions necessary presents a gloomy
prospect Indeed There cannot be fonni a Slate la
this Union th t has ever bad the money required lo
build railroads to any extent. All without exception
have bad to have recourse lo Stale rr-dit or to cor-
porale credit which Is much the same thing as Ihe
Utter depends on Ihe former being derived from
charters granted by and may therefore be taken
away by the Slate. CredItthenlslheba3isonwblcb
alone the soperslrcclnre of every syscm for internal
Improvements musl bo built. A moments reflection
must satisfy any one that we hare not the preent
means to pa; the entire cost of railroads. The at-
tempt to do so eren by the State Itself would re
quire a heavy and most oppresive tax on the people
a tax that would be fatal to the prosperity of the
country ; and thla'burlhen Instead of being equally
and equitably distributed through a series of years
npon tbe present and future population of this State
(ss would be done on a good credit basis ) would fal'
ith a crushing weight on our present inhabitants
who are least able to bear it and for Ihe benefit chief
ly of thoe who are to eomo after ns and therefore be
be.tar able to tear each a berths n. The attempt lo
raise so much money by counties would be still more
oppressive and borthensome because more unequal.
tl tbe tsx would fail upon the few for tbe benefit of
the maney.
We need hardly apeak of the attempt to build rail-
roads to top-pi J the wants of tbla empire State by
Tolnntary contributions or by private corporations'
ror besides being preposterous la Itself It ha already
been tried and proved an Titter failure.
But we cannot agree with the Telegraph In the
opinion that tbe people of Texas will never take any
proper measure to establish tho credit oflhe State
on n solid basl by doing full and ample Jaetlce to
their creditors and getting rid of Ihe charge of repu-
diat'on. "If says tho Telegraph ever a State had
value received Tor ber debt It was Texas" Andll
this Is trae have not the people of Texas tbe Intelli-
gence to percoivelt? and perceiving It havo they
not the patriotism ani virtue nccosary to Induce
them to pay a Just and honorable debt Uehaveao
abiding confidence in the ultimate triumph or train
and we bave nover abandoned the hope that tbe debt
of Texas will eventually be aettlel with a very neaf
approximation to justice and to Ihe satisfaction cl
our creditors And we would here say that we look
upon tbe consummation of this meainro as an object
of paramount importance an one towards the ac
complishment of wTileb every patriot Bhou Id give rlt
the aid fa his power. Until this Is done we da not ex-
peet lo tee railroads In Texas; tnd those who Indulge
la such expectations are certainty destined to oedia
appointed In the future tt they have fcs-n in tbe
pail.
It Is true we may get a few miles of rallaoad built
la the coarse or jctrs on one tr two important
thoroLghfares wbers they may be foreed through by
tbe necessities of trade; bat even the few miles
will require yean for their construction ani will sf-

Opclousn Itallroad.
Tie Avtln Stale Gazette speaking of this road
says:
To New Orleans It Is of tbe flrt importance since
tao-thirds ot tb product of the country through
wnicn eucn a rauroaa wuu a pass is now tnippea to
New York. Philadelphia and Boston. It would tietd
tuN w Orleans a Mrgeand profitsble trade which
now does not and without a rai roi d never wuulj go
lo New Orleans. To us it appeals strongly for w
woall be seeureI a cheap market witbrul ihe present
exlra commt-nlon and handlinz to which we are and
tnuitbe subject while we are without a flrttclaB
port U)Imo. sngar coru came sou ma-e com-
mnditle of Texa aro only to be cubed at a firt
etias port It is Iherrf ire. our first In'erest to direct
our roi roads so as lo accompliib this object at the
cannst penoo.
It is certainly the farlherest from any Intention on
cur part to oppose what we sboulldeem for tbe true
Interest of any part of our State. If It ii rvally for
the interct of Aus.In and all the Interior of our
State (and If It is for tho interest of Austin it mast
be e j for much the larger portion of Texa) to give
all the profi a of its trade t New Orleans to Ihe
injury if not to the ruin of all the seaports In oar
own State the a we can only any it Is a mart unfor-
tana'e dreams arce. For certainty no one will deny
that ills a misfortune that the Interests cf so large a
back country as ours possessing aa it does ihe ele-
ments of wealth "arpassinglhe entire State of Lous-
an.sbauld be In such direct conflict witb the Inter-
ets of all the coast country and with perhaps the
very exigence of all onr seaports Bat can 11 be
possible that the beat interests of Texas require that
Its preot and Immense prospective trade should be
made tributary 1 aforeign seaport to the rum er
all tho seaports of our own State? This is as lm
portant question and one whlcb we propose to dis-
cos In a future number with fifraea and candor.
ForwewIIInot knowingly orge an argument evan
to save the nearorta nf Texss from otter nnnlhilata-
iion tba could possibly lend lo the injury of Aus-
tin and the vat Interior of Texas. We will now
tnerily remark that we bare not lately beard any
Ihtngof theOpeloaa railroad Tbe New Orleans
papers appear to be in as much ignorance as we are
as t Its further progress and Its present actual con-
dition. All we know Is that all work on It hss for
many months paU beca entirely suspended. The
New Orleans Bulletin after responding to the senti-
roeuts expressed by tbe Austin Gaxetle says It has
In vain sought for information respecting this road.
" We hare heard esyi Ibe editor of inch things as
