'The latest news from Europe
gives but little hope of the cessation of hostilities. In A^ia the Turks are still successful, having driven back the Russians in several sanguinary engagements. Sickness continues to desolate the Russian ranks, while exultation and buoyant spirits pervade those of the Turks. They are well paid, well fed and well clothed. The burning enthusiam that inspired them at first, still glows in their hearts and they seem determined to conquer or die. A number of Americans are said to have joined the Turkish army, who will doubtless infuse new life, spirit and discipline into those already flushed with success.
•OUR WEEKLY LECTURES.—The
Lec
ture delivered by Mr. B. W. Hanna, last Thursday evening, on Ireland, her Revolutions and Genius, brought out a large audience, whose close attention testified to the excellence of the production. The subject itself always interesting, was discussed in a manner pleasing and instructive, and the lecture was written in a style beautiful and chaste. The Lectures have thus commenced under most favorable auspices, and we trust the interest will not only be kept up, but greatly increase.
OZTMr. John Hawkins, one of the original formers of the YVashingtonian Society in Baltimore, lectured in the Centre Church of this place, on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of this week. The first evening was occupied principally in relating the history of the formation of the Washingtonian pledge, his own experience and the temptations to which the drunkard is subjected.
With such facts before the mind as were related by Mr. Hawkins, wc are utterly at a loss to know how it is that any man can advocate liquor drinking or laws that will sanction liquor selling. Were those who drink the only sufferers, the voice of humanity might be hushed from plending for a prohibitory law but when untold sufferings fall heavily on the innocent, the helpless, and the unoffending, who will not cry aloud and spare not until the monster is driven from the land and his death bearing tide stayed in its onward progress?
Hon. W. H. English gave notice the first business day of the present session of Congreps that he would introduce a bill for the donation ofpublic lands for the construction ofa railroad from the Falls of the Ohio to St. Louis. This is a manifestation ofa working spirit and deserves commendation.—Evansville Enr/uirer.
A Railroad from St. Louis, to the Falls of the Ohio, can doubtless, be proven by the Democracy to be a work clearly national in its character and therefore constitutional and deserving appropriations from the U. S. Treasury. But may we not ask, why it is that this road is more national, than the Ohio river, the Harbors the lakes or the Wharf on the Mississippi at St. Louis? We confess our inability to discover the difference.

OCPThe following article we select from the Weekly Patriot, a paper devoted to the exposure of Romanism. The true spirit of Catholic feeling is here revealed. The Bishops and Priests desire the supreme control of all property belonging to the church, and those who oppose their wishes are threatened with excommunication and the terrible sufferings of Purgatory. Rend this article and then ask yourself, is that the spirit of our free institutions?
Threatened Excommunication. Bishop Timon, of Buffalo, has addressed a letter to the rebellious Trustees of St. Louis Church of that city the following extract from which will show that he threatens them with the terrible concequences of excommunication, if they persist in refusing to yield up their church property to his absolute control:
For, dearly deloved, though it will deeply grieve us, yet our duty will force us to pronounce sentence of excommunication upon those who resist.— With anguish of heart we now warn you Oh may God grant to our tears and fervent prayers, your return to the obedience of God to the arms of your Bishop and Father in Christ, who would cheerfully give up his life for your salvation "Beloved in Christ, make one generous efFert, and your troubles will be over, and you will ensure a lasting Peace for yourselves, for your children, and for your children's children. Your Bishop will then appoint seven upright men of your congregation who will administer for God's worship the offering which you freely give to God. Once or twice a year they will give you an exact account of the receipts and expenditures."
There remains nothing now for the Chuch but abject submission, or excommunication from the pale of the Chatholic Church. On one side, as the Pittsburgh Gazette forcibly remarks, are the pebple, claiming the right to manage their own property, and the temporalities of the Church, leaving the spirituals in the hands of the Priests and Bishops. On the other stands Bishop Timon, armed with spiritual power, and with the terrors of excommunication in his hand. He tells the people that unless they will tamely submit, and lay at his feet the temporalities of the Church, to be held at his bidding and control perpetually, and thus become serfs and bondsmen, for it is nothing less, he will sut the doors of heaven against them, to ths flames of eternal perdition. He will visit the sins of the fathers upon the children, and deny the rites of baptism to the helpless infant which has no part in the rebellion of the parent, and he will follow the body after death, and deny it the ritea of Christian sepulture.— Such is the condition to which the
Catholic Church of Buffalo is reduced. Let not the Protestant reader smile at the vain threatening* of the Bishop. From him it would only call forth contempt and derision. To the sincere Catholic, however, it is a question of terrible moment He believes that the Bishop can do all which he threatens. He believes that he holds the keys of heaven, andean shut him out of bliss forever, and consign him over to Satan, without any chance even of an escape through the fires of Purgatory. In this contest, then, he finds himself helpless. He must either renounce his faiih in the Pope and Bishops, in effect become a I'rotostant, or yield to the demands of the Priest, or pain of eternal damnation What a terrible power to be wielded by mortal man. Is it any wonder that all manly spirit is crushed out of the heart of the people in Catholic countries, and that so many take refuge from such grinding oppression in the cold regions of infidelity
Heaven help the congregation of St. Louis, Buffalo, and give the people strength to reject both the Bishop and his faith, to hurl back defiance i.i the face of the proud Priests, and embrace the simple and benign doctrines of Jesus Christ.—!)/:. Tribune.

Mr. Wright,of Pennsylvania, said he thought the country at large nnprepared to anticipate the results which had occurred from the debate of the last three days. He was one who believed that after the great contest the country had passed through, when both of the great parties of the nation came together in honorable warfare, and when the great battle had been fought and won, that abolitionism was not only dead, but buried. He then alluded to Gerritt Smith's speech, which he said exhumed the lifeless body and dragged it before the country. He said he could not keep his mouth closed when such sentiments were avowed and he then reviewed Smith's speech, particularly that part in which he characterized the U. States as greater oppression than Austria. He said that Smith had cast a fire-brand into the country, but he would fail in his object. He also defended the administration and the compromise from the attacks made by Smith. He quoted the provision of the constitution in regard to the recovery of fugitives from labor, and asked "how can the gentleman put his hand on the Holy Bible and swear to support the Constitution, and yet assert that the higher law was superior to the Constitution?"
Mr. Smith answered that a few days before the convention adjourned, the committee on style recommended that the word service be substituted for servitude, a.** the latter was identified with slavery and the former with the condition of freemen. The recommendation was unanimously adopted.
Mr. Wright said this was not his recollection of history, and went on to say that Congress had no right to legislate on slavery, and he washed his hands of the subject.

CINCINNATI,
Dec. 26.—Bishop Bed-
ini, the Popea's nuncio, officiated in the Catholic Cathedral yesterday, and is the guest of Arch Bishop Purcell.
The most violent animosity is entertained towards him by the German society of freemen. About five hundred members of that society assembled at their hall at 10 o'clock last night, organized and marched in the vicinity of the Arch Bishop'a residence with the supposed intention of violence to the person of Bedini.
The chief of police, having received an intimation of the movements early in the evening, retained the entire police force at the watch-house,
which ia
opposite the Bishop'a resi-j
dence. As the freemen approached they set up a di3mal groan, accompanied with clanging of most discordant music.
The
police, at the word
of commaud, rushed into the procession and' each arrested a man. A general melee ensued, and the scene baffled description. Many shots were fired/ and shouts and execrations filled the air. The rioters soon fled,
but were pursued by. the police and over sixty captured, which filled the watch house. The animosity against tbe nuncio is in consequence of a betrayal of liberty in Italy. Several infiamatory articles appeared in the German papers published here, in one of which occurs: "If the Hungarian butcher Haynan met with so warm a reception in monarchial England what shall a Pope's nuncio expect in repulican America?" Great excitement this morning in the neighborhood of the watch-house.

A tremendous naval battle has occurred in which the .Russians sunk 13 Turkish ships off Sinope.
This is the greatest naval battle that has been fought since the battle of Navarino. The loss of life was terrific, it occurred on the 30th of November. There was a fatal destruction of 21 ships of war.
The entire Russian fleet from Sebastopal, under admiral MachinkofF, consisting of 24 sail, appeared off the Turkish harbor, where vice admiral Osrnan Bey lay
A'ith
14 Turkish sail.
The battle immediately commenced, nnd the shore batteries being of no use, the Russians forced the harbor. The Turks fought like devils and would not surrender. The two opposing forces with the most desperate bravery fought till one ship after an other was sunk, blown up burned or destroyed. Seven Turkish frigates, two corvettes, one steamer, three transports, with several thousand men totally perished.
Osman Bey, Turkish vice admiral, was taken prisoner. Each Turkish ship, besides their crew, had 800 troops, on their way to Circassia, on board, and also money to pay the fleeet, all of which was lost.
The Turks burned or sunk seven Russian ships, two line of battle, three frigates, ank two steamers. Battle only listed one hour
The remainder of the Russian fleet was so shattered that they could scarcely reach SebastopJe.
All Europe is in excitement. The opinion is, that an European war cannot longer be avoided.
The Turks continueed to gain advantage in Asia, on the line of the Danube. No movements reported.
Another account says six Russian ships of the line only were in the engagement, eustainining the fire of the land batteries as well as the Turkish fleet. The Russians attempted to take the Turkish flag ship, with the admiral and vice admiral, on to Sebastopal, but she sunk, and the prisoners were transferred to Russian vessels. Prince Menschokoff left immediately for St. Petersburg.
Vienna accounta say that an armi stice will probably be agreed upon. Turkey consents to the neutrality of Servia.
Advices from China are to the 27th November. They were still fighting at Shanghai, the Americans were quiet.
