A (liapatcb from Now York announce the ilt'ini,e iu that city, on tlie evening of January of Archbishop Ilughci : John Hnjfhtu waa born in tho mirth of Ire lnnil iu 17!8. Ho wna tho eon of a farmer nf eiimll uicaiis. In 1H17 young Hughes onii. grntptl to Anioricti. Ilia falln-r, who hnd pro ceiled him to the, United Stnte,, plotted him wiin n norist tn lenrn the art or gardening, lint having little tnsto for .nob pumiitg ho devoted hia Hinre time tn itudy, nud as soon as his en gngeineiit expired enlerod llie tlieolngicnl setn inury nf Mnunt St. Mary's. Emmitteburg, Marvliuid, where ho remained for several years, being employed, ulino-t from tho first,' as n teiicbor. lie wits ordained priest in l'liiiudel pbia in 1623, nnd was settled in a pariah in that city. In 18:!0 bo accepted a challenge from Itov. John Ureokinriilge, a distinguished Presbyterian clerirvmnn. to discuss tlm one.. tinn : " Is tho Protestant religion tiio religion of Christ ?" Tho controversy was carried on in tho iicu'siapou for several months, and at tracted so much nttentinn that the articles worn subsequently collected in a volume, which had fir a time a wide circulation. In J834 Ilrcck inridgo renewed the enconntor by proposing an oral discussion on the question : t'ls tho Unman Catholic religion in any or nil its principles and doctrines, inimical to civil or religious lib erty I" Hughes immediately onmo fnrwnrd ns tlie chniiipioii of his creed, and the debnto, which wtia published in book form in 18!, was regnrded willi great interest by the public of luitli parties. In lhj. HiiL'lies founded St. John's church in Philadelphia, am was its rector ns long ns ho remained In that city. In 18117 llishnp Dubois, of New York, having do mautlcded, on account of his nno sod i ri fl mi it v soine relief from the cires nf the Episcopate, llie Holy bee appointed Hughes coadjutor. Ho wns consecrated iu New York.Jnuiiarv 'J. an I nhout two weeks afterward Bishop Dubois was niiucKt-o. uy paralysis, irom wliicli he nev er wholly recovered. In tlie following year the Pope appointed Bishop iluelies administrator of the Diocese; nud although be did not 1110 ceed to the full dignity of lli.bop until the aentn nt Itisnop Dnliois. m If 1:, the gorern nirnt of that portion of the church was thence forth entirely iu bis hands'. His first measures were directed lo a reform in the tenn e of church property, which wns then vested iu luy trustees, a system that had more than unco given rise to scandalous conflicts hcttvecn the congregation nnd tho episcopal authority. All tho eight churches in Ihe city were heavily in debt, and ttvo were bankrupt and on Ihe point ol being sold, lltshop Hughes resolved to con soliduto the church debts, tn remove them from the nmiingenient of luytnen, and lo secure the titles in his own name. Iu this undertaking he wns violently opposed by the trustees, and wus only partially successful; but tha most pressing debts were paid off, and harmony was eventually rejlored. Iu 18-W Hisbop lliighel visited prance, Austria and Italy to obtain p. euiary aid for his diocese. Ou 'his return he npplied himself with great energy to Ihe cnuse u( catholic education. Already during- the pri-iiuiia yenr no nun purcliaseil property at Fordliain iu Winchester couotv.fnr tho nurmian of establishing a college. Ho now completed its organization, and it was opened iu 1H4I un der the name of fit. Johu's College. The dis pute on tno school inestion about this time brought tlie Iliehop still more prominently be fore the public. It was charged by Catholic mm i no common schools were sectarian in character, and they oomplainod of the injustice ol taxing them lor tbo support of schools to which they could not conscientiously send their children, l'ulilio meetings were held and an association was formed lur obtaining relief It was dtuanded that cither taxes should be removed, or that a changu should be made in the system of education. The Catholic peti tioned the Common Council in Septeinber.lH 10 Ui designute seven Catholic schools as "eutithd to participate in the common school fund upon complying Willi the requirements of the law." Kemoiiairances to this petition were sent in by the Pnlilio School Society, and the nuitors of the Methodist Episcopal church, and on Octo ber 29th both parties appeared before the Coin niou Council. Tlie Pulilie Seined noiety win represented by ooaitsrl Tlicudnre .Seditwitk. and 1 1 tram Kelcliuiu and ou siibseoui-ul even inVs "addresses were made byl(i-v Drsr ltond, Hangs. Keeae.

Precisely nt twelvo o'clock the travel of the Speaker fell, nnd the Houso' was hushed to si lence while he announced that by the nrovis- inns nf the Constitution the hour' had arrived when the lirst session of the 38th Congress should be orgnnized by calling the roll provid ed by the Clerk of the former Ilotiso of Rep resentatives. A profound attention to tho no tion pervaded the House while the clerk called tho roll, from which he omitted Maryland, Mis souri, Oreson, Kansas, and Enst and West Virginia.

During a profound silence which suc ceeded, Dawes of Massachusetts called for the reading of the credentials of the Maryland delegation, which set forth that the Uopr'o.o,,. tatives were duly elected, but omitting to stnto that they wero elected in pursuance of tbo Inws of the State and of tho United States, as the law of March .'Id proscribe. The credentials being read, Dawes offered a resolution that the names of tho Maryland member bo placed upon the roll of iho House.

Thereupnii arusu a long discussion, tihich resulled in Stevens with drawing his resolution. There was also a long trife over the credentials of Ihe Eastern Vir ginians, which resulled iu their being laid upon Iho table until Iho organization of the House should lie effected. E. B.
