From the Pliila. Daily Sun. Archbishop Hughes on tha Increase of Ro- One evening, at a orowded aasemblv, I was standing near a window in a recess, talking with a lady, when 1 felt a strange ih'ill- I cannot describe It, but its eflect was visible to my companion, who instantly said : Archbishop Hughes recently delivered ■ lecture before the Young Catholics' Friend Sofclety in Baltimore, a digest of which we find in the New Bed lord Mercury. According to this prelate, people have indulged In speculations upon the power anil endurance of tho Catholic church in the United Slates, this church never huving been before the' Declaration ot Independence, connected wiih any governmeni except as its favorite or its foe. The A rohliixhop derives the Catholics in the United States, from three sources; the primitive stock of the Maryland colony ; immigration and conversion. In the year 1785, John Carr ill a Jesuit, was appointed by the [Inly See, as the Superior of the clergy in this country, in'Maryland at that date, there were between sixteen and twenty thousand Catholics ; in Pennsylvania eight thousand ; in New York there two hundred. »' These," he saVs, " are tho three sources, from which, American Catholics are ij be derived." At this date, 1735, there were four Catholic churches iiij the States, but no Catholic .schools, college.", hospitals or orpbart asylums. From subsi'tmejil accessions of territory, the Archbishop does nut consider that we have gained many original Caiholics. Next comes immigration, and this, according the 1 -durer. has been too highly rated ; up to the year 1825 the immigration from the British Empire amounts to a little over 300,000, but the tide ot Catholic immigrants did not set id towards this country till after the close of the Revolutionary war, and a great party ol this even from Ireland was Protes'ant, that is, the north country people, who settled in New Jersey Pennsylvania. From the year 1825 to the ybtfr 1850, a period of twenty five years here arrived from LGreat Britain and Ireland 1,453,325 immigrants, and lrom the yearD1850 to 1858, in city ot New York alope, 1,:) 19,230 immigrants, and in nil from those countries since 1790, we may call the immigration about -8,250- 000. For the last fifteen years the Arch bishop considers that four-fifihs of the immigration has been Catholic, aud that one oi three of. the immigrants die soon after their arrival, as. they are especially exposed to tile aoaideuts of life, to sickness, hardship of every kind and toilsome poverty. Hundreds of thousands of the decsendants jDf Catholic immigrants have fallen away from their religion, but it ii equally true that they, hardly added any thing to any other denomination of Chris liana. By the census o£ I860 there were in the United .States 19,55-3,065 white in hkbitants, of whom 2,240,535 were o foreign birth. With the exception of 950, 000, which was the number of Irish ac cording to the census, the remainder oi those of foreign hirth came from Sweden Norway, the German States, Great Britain die., mostly Protestants according to the lecturer. By the closest examination, una arranging the results according to the besi ascertained authority within reach, it follows as an approximate calculation that ai the present day there are in the Unitec State*, say, eleven hundred thousand Catho lies born in foreign lands; over eigh hundred thousand Germans, because o the German immigration there two Prot estantk tor one Catholic. Now, we find according to the Catholic Almanac lor 18 5tt, that the Catholic population of the UnUed Slates is 2,397,500, thus leaving eleven htindredlhousund foreign born Catholics, and ths balance, twelve hundred ant ninety-seven thousand five huudred. Con version, thju, must be taken as-oue of the chief means to which we may attribute tho increase of the Catholic Church. We Have already given the total Catholic popu lation'; the number of priests iu 1785 was 23 ; now there are 1701 priests; at tiial time there was no archbishop or bishop : now there aro seven of the former, anCi thirty.five of the latter; from four church e§ there are now 1910 churches, and 891 stations for worship; also 87 seminaries to train up youth, 24 colleges, and 130 fe male adadfcmtes. Such aie tho last ««ti mates given briefly, ot one of the most no ted Catholie dignitaries in the country : he looks on the prospects of the Catholic Church as good; it will increase by the me dium of native born Catholics in this coun try ; immigration will probably  but the principles oi their fathers will be continued in their children. The lea turcr then.cites the little republic ofkSac Marino as an instance of a republic which, though it is Gatbolip, has yet retained its independence for a { period ol 1400 years, and closes with tlie remark, " it ahotild be that the Caiholio religion desires no more light than she possesses ; no piore liberty and.laws, by. which thit country has made such astonishing pro gres*. leaving religion to take care ol iu own concerns—every deuomnation mana. ging its a flairs in its own way."
