lteliglous Persecution In Missouri,
The following from the St. Louis Dis-.
patch roveals the disgusting tale;
In a lbotbsomo prison of this State,
with two burglars and a npgro ravisher
for companions, Is Incarcerated a pious
young Cathollo priest, for the orjme ot
having preached tho word of God, with
out having first obtained a Stato license
to do so. To obtuln this liconse lie
should havo taken, not merely an
oath of loyalty for tho past; declaring
that ho had never thought or sympa
thized otherwise than the authorities
think he should have dono during tho
war. That oath ho might have proba
bly taken, it he would only degrade his
manhood and his priesthood, kneeling
at the throne of the Governor—a beg
gar for permission to preach tho Gos
pel of the King of Kings.
Another devoted priest is awaiting
his trial at Jefferson City for tho same
offence. This clergyman lias been
from the heginlng, a strong Union man
and editor of the German Cathulio pa
per of thlfc oily, which was all but
Radical.

The rending of this remarkable doc

and ridtoula, and furnishes a ready key
ho.the tenor of the temtes; itjereto prei

hat this presure, in . favor of repudia-
.ion, originated here at home, and only
received countenance at Washington,
from the repeated and annoying
importunities of -its udvoontos in Geor
gia, The President did not even inti
mate his views on this subject,- either
to. the convention of Mississippi-' or
South Carolinn,• but left the delegates
free, to act as their judgment ,diotated,
and no s'uoh interference would' 1 have
ooourred'bere but'for the anxiety of the
Provisional Governor, and his-frlends,
to commit tho State to the suicidal
policy of repudiation.—'Cbr, of Era,

an address to tho negro population, in

Confederate Government formed
