The Swiss authorities have arrested many
Italian refugees who were about to enter into
Lombardy with arms in their hands. They
have been required to give bond not to quit
the country. The Italian government claims
to possess unquestionable evidence that Maz-
rim is personally implicated in this move
ment. As, in such a case, the agitator has
forfeited the protection extended to him by
the Swiss Republic, the Cabinet of Florence
will make a_ formal demand either for his sur
render or bis expulsion from Switzerland.
A riot in Lucca was quickly quelled.
The Council is still engaged in discussing
the Infallibility dogma. Though the fathers
belonging to the opposition are well aware
that all their attempts to defeat the proclama
tion of the dogma will prove futile, they will,
like true soldiers of the cross, defend their con-
rteions to the last It seems that the sitting
of the 3d inst, being very excited, was unex
pectedly dissolved, thus bringing the debate
on the preamble of the infallibility dogma to
an abrupt dose. The opposing fathers have,
therefore, presented an address, covered with
one hundred signatures, to the Dope, through
the Cardinal Legate. They complain that
fifty prelates, who had given notice qf their
intention to speak, among them Monseigneur
‘'upsnloup, were proven tod from expressing
their opinions; they protest, consequently,
against tho vote of the 3d inst., declaring that
it was carried by surprise. The correspon
dent of the Augsburger AUgemcinc Zeitung,
who is generally well informed, assures us that
the American bishops are exhibiting a grow-
tag disinclination to the dogma. If we may
credit a report from Paris, the Pope takes
aides in bis own infallibility, a letter, he has
written to tho recently consecrated Bishop of
tarbes, sustaining, in positive terms, the dog-
t&i of infallibility.
. Rocmania.—As we had suspected, the re
futed Jewish massacre has proved to be a
Bi'eat mystification. The news originated in a
t-port of Cremiux of the “Alliance Israelite t ”
tn Paris., intimating that the Jews. were again
the victims of a merciless persecution in Ivou-
^ania. Though there has recently nothing
transpired to warrant this statement, the news
Was magnified by American newsmongers in
to a general massacre of the Jewish popula-
*t°tL Wo know that all parties in Roumania
*re united as to their hate against this anaient
tace, tkhich has become a political creed; no
[arty can remain in power unless it winks at
V L - popular prejudice. If once wb proclaim
7 sovereignty of tho peopl? tie cannot
heart of his people. It seems, moreover,
as if the frequent reports of the “Alliance
Israelite,” on Jewish massacres in Iloumania,
are greatly exaggerated. The “Bucharest
Mon.iteur,” published in the Capitol of Rou
mania, has repeatedly replied to similar tales
of horror. According to that paper, Rou
mania contained only 60,000 Jews in 1849; the
number is at present 400.000 in an entire pop
ulation of 4,600,000. When Roumania, m
1848, shook off the Russian protectorate, by
the 21st article of the new Constitution every
political right was accorded to the Jews with
out reservation. Tho Constitution was changed
by the Russian occupation, and the Jews were
for a time deprived of the rights it conferred
upon them. The Jews are entitled to gratui
tous instruction just as well as the Rouman
ians. -The government has repeatedly sent
young men of Jewish families to Paris to pur
sue thmr studies there at the expense of the
public treasury. Liberty of conscience is
guaranteed by the present Constitution.
The 400,000 Roumanian Jews possess 176 syn
agogues. When we consider this extraordinary
increase of the Jewish population, we must nec
essarily como to the conclusion either that the
reported prosecutions are greatly exaggerated,
or that Roumania^offers the Jews, who are so
remarkable for their thrifty spirit, such irresist
ible opportunities of acquiring wealth as to
make them defy oppression and persecution*
Turkey.—The disastrons fire in Constantino
ple has already been commented upon in these
columns. Detailed accounts have not yet

Bibb Superior Court.—Tho whole time of
this Court was taken np yesterday in the farther
hearing of evidence in the Malloy murder case.
It will bo several days, perhaps, before the case
is disposed of.
While in the Court room, yesterday, as has
not unfrequently been tho case during tho pres
ent term, wo noticed at least fifty or one hun
dred able bodied colored men and women occu
pying the benches—some listening to the pro
ceedings, while not a few were sound asleep.
Why they will visit the Court-room from day to
day, and fritter away their time in idleness and
indifference, as to what becomes of their em
ployment and domestic affairs, passes our com-
prehension. Time is money, as much or more
so to the laboring man than the banker, and
when we see a man or woman lolling about in
idleness, whom we know cannot afford to throw
away valuable time, it excites our pitty and
commiseration, for we know that suffering and
want follow swiftly in their footsteps. Admit
ting that the Hoyo and Malloy cases were pe
culiarly interesting, does it pay to waste day
after day in listening to their trial. Is it pre
sumed that a dense crowd of colored specta
tors will have any effect upon an upright and
impartial judge or jury ? If so, that judge and
jury who would or could be influenced thereby
are unworthy to administer tho law. They are
solemnly sworn to decide all cases according to
the law and the testimony, and it is an insult to
both judge and jury for either a white or color
ed crowd of spectators to flock around the bar
of a court-room, in the expectation of having
any moral weight in the determination of a
case.
We do not believe there is a purer or more
concientous gentleman in tho discharge of his
duties, in the world, than His Honor, Carlton
B. Cole, and for a large gang of negroes to
crowd around his bench, to soo whether or not
ha will properly administer the law, when they
know nothing of law themselves, is nettlesome,
to say the least of it, and we should say the
same of our own race if they should act like
wise.
Wtt.t. Commence Again.—Mr. Feutchwangpr
having recovered from his recent severe illness,
will again commence his great ladies’ auction
this morning at 10 o’clock, and will have sales
daily at 10 a. m., and 4 p. ir., until his elegant
and varied stock of dry goods is closed out.
Every lady in Macon should attend these sales,
as they certainly afford a most extraordinary
opportunity to purchase goods at nominal rates.
In other words, they can get almost anything in
the dry goods line at their own price. As to
the quality of the goods, they are first class and
fashionable, and were purchased bnt a few
weeks since. They have, however, got to bo
sold for whatever they will bring, and any lady
desirous of securing dress goods at her own
price, will lose the opportunity by failing to
drop in at Feutchwanger’s, Triangular Block.
Too Much Rain.—Tho weather continues un
settled and showery. It rained pretty much nil
the forenoon in this section yesterday. Plant
ers horeabontssay they are now having too much

upper hand of them. The gardens in tho city

been doing so for a week.
Talking about garden truck wo might men

warehouse of Jonathan Collins & Son, on TueS'
day evening, which measured four feet eight
inches across the top and nearly fourteen feet
in circumference. It was raised in Mr. Gus,
Collins’ garden, in this city.

THIRTY YEARS
Have elapsed since the introduction of tho Pain
Killer to the public, and yet at the present time It
is more popular and commands a larger sale than
ever before. Its popularity is not confined to this
country alone; oil over tho world its beneficial ef
fects in curing the “ills that flesh is heir to,” are ac
knowledged and appreciated, and as pain killer its
fame is b'mitedkto no country,'sect nor race. It
needs only toT>e known to be prized. Thirty years
is certainly a long enough time to prove the efficacy
of any medicine, and that the pain killer Is deserv
ing of all its proprietors claim for it, is amply
proved by the unparalleled-, popularity it has at
tained. It is a sure and effective remedy. Bold by

Washington, June 13.—In the House, after
the introduction of a number of important bills,
Mr. Davis introduced and moved the previous
question on a bill to amend the naturalization
laws, providing for the punishment of false

tion, and the use or possession of forged records
certificates: also, giving the United States
Courts jurisdiction in all such offences.
Under the suspension of the rules the bill

House bill without amendment.
The majority of the sub-committee of the
Senate, on the Memphis and El Paso Railroad,
made a report concluding ns follows: From the
best examination that we have been able to
make, of the facts and the laws of Texas, our
conclusions are that ihe Memphis and El Faso
Railroad Company is an existing corporation,
with the right of way across the State of Texas,
and that it has a valid land grant of sixteen sec
tions to the mile, to be selected from the public
lands of Texas, without any special reserva
tion.
In the House, the foUowing Republicans voted
to suspend .the rules tb pass a general bill re
moving disabilities: Buckley, Dockery, Fitch,
Pierce, Platt, Sargent, Stokes and Tillman.—
Motion defeated by a vote of 59 to 111.
Mr. Dawes moved the report of the commit
tee on the River and Harbor bill.
Mr. Butler moved to take up the Georgia bill,
which was defeated by a vote of 120 to S8.
The river and harbor bill was considered and
passed. It goes to the Senate. The features of
the bill have been telegraphed: The month of
the Mississippi gets $300,000. The Falls, on
the Ohio, $250,000. The amount for the Ten
nessee river increased to $80,000. $50,000 has
been given to the Mobile harbor and bay.
The Speaker laid before the Honse a message
from the President of the United States con
demnatory of the atrocious manner in which the
conflict in Cnba was carried on on both sides,
and representing that the object of the Cabans
who urge their recognition as billigerants, is to
embroil the United States in war with Spain,
declaring his inability to see in the present con
dition of the contest in Cnba those elements re
quired to constitute war in the sense of the in
ternational law, and inviting the attention of
Congress to all relations and bearings of tho
question in connection with a declaration of
neutrality and granting billigerent rights.
The message having been read Banks, chair
man of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, moved
that it be laid on the table and printed.
Mr. Judd, a member of that committee, sug
gested its reference to the committee on for
eign affairs.
Mr. Banks said that the question had been
fully considered by that committee, and the
committee had made a report, which was to
come np to-morrow.
Mr. Cox remarked that the limitation of the
President’s right, to make communications to
Congress, was that he might, from time to time,
give it information as to the state of the Union,
bnt ho regarded this message as an attack on
the report made by the gentleman from Massa
chusetts, (Banks) and it should be, as in the
case of Andrew Johnson's message, laid on the
table without reference to a committee.
Mr. Banks said he had not made the motion
in the spirit to which the gentleman from New
York referred. It was the usual course to lay
a message on tho tablo and have it printed.
Mr. Dawes suggested that after the remarks
of the gentleman from Ohio, it would be re
spectfnl to lay the message on the table.
Mr. Banks modified his motion and moved
the reference of the message to the committee
on foreign affairs.
Mr. Cox moved to lay the message on the
tablo which was rejected.
The message was then referred to the com
mittee on foreign affairs.
House adjonrned.
Washington, June 14.—The Reconstruction
Committee heard statements regarding certain
sea-island cotton-bearing islands. The ques
tion of their sale was referred to a sub-commit
tee, consisting of Mr. Payne.
The Georgia bill was resumed. Tho clause
to tho bill declaring that nothing therein con
tained should be construed as forbidding an elec
tion next Fall, was stricken out, and the bill re
mains as first ordered, namely : The Virginia
bill with a clause added allowing militia organi
zations. The bill will probably be up to-mor-
kind of taxation, whether tariff,-stamps, in
come or tonnage, and makes a clear sweep of
the revenue from tho coal trade. The bill, after
some discussion, was recommitted to the Ways
and Means Committee. The minority claiming
the bill was not in accordance with instructions
of the House and insisted that had a full com
mittee been present, a different bill -would have
been reported.

lands to the Great Southern Railroad of Flori
da. The bill will pass to-day.

In the Honse, the currency bill was consider
ed. It is the first, second, tenth and eloventh

since, and provides: First, for the issuing of
ninety-five millions of national bank notes.—
Second, cancels forty-five and a half millions
of three per cent, and thirty-nine and a half
millions of greenbacks. Third, takes twenty-
five millions from the States having an excess,
and distributes it West and South; but not until
after the ninety-five millions have been issned.
The fonrth section allows a bank in a State,
having an excess, to remove to'a State in de
ficiency, taking with it Us capital, circnlation-
etc. An amendment, forbidding the cancella’
tion of greenbacks, was adopted—72 to 44.—
The bill, finally, after rejecting many amend
ments, passed by a vote of 98 to 81, and goes
to the Senate.
The debate in the House on the Caban reso
lution was to-day exciting, and more than here-
ofore animated, especially between Mr. Bntler,
of Massachusetts, and Mr. Logan, the former
opposing tho declaration of belligerency, and
the latter advocating it.
Mr. Bingham offered an amendment to one
of the sections which he desired to submit as a
substitute. The previous question was second
ed, and as that presented a new phase of the

business for to-morrow.

bill. No Executive session to-day.

confiscated or laid under embargo; and what
steps, if any, have been taken by our Govern

The joint resolution authorizing water gnages
to bo established, and observations to be made

No one presumed to gness the result of to*

Banks yesterday intimated that Genoral Caleb
Cashing wrote part of the President’s Caban
message. Bat this is all a mistake, that gentle
man having nothing whatever to do with it. No
one ontside the Executive Department had any
knowledge of the message being prepared until
the document itself was transmitted to Con
gress. The President to-day said that while he
sympathized with the Cabans and all people
struggling for independence, he would not be
controlled by his mere feelings or sympathies,
bnt would, in dealing with foreign powers, re
spect treaties, and, as the Executive, faithfully
carry out the laws and uphold and defend the
Constitution.
10 p. m.—Internal Revenue, to-day, nearly

The freedman’s corruption investigation has

■Washington, June 13.—The British Minister,
Mr. Thornton, has received instructions to
thank the President for interference against the
Fenians. The Despatch expresses the hope of
the British government that the Fenians will be

Tho President sent to Congress, to-day, a
very important message relative to the conflict
in Cuba. He seta out by reminding Congress
that he had promised, in his annual message,
to make a further communication on the subject
of Caba, as there was at that time nothing in
the condition of affairs to justify tho recognition
of belligerent rights in the insurgents. Tho
past six months, he says, while they have not
given to the Spanish troops any great success,
have not advanced the position of the insurger 's,
who possess no port, city or town; have no
political form of government, and only mako
war from ambush on Spanish convoys. He
condemned the atrocious manner in which tho
conflict is conducted on both sides, in the whole
sale butchery of prisoners.
He alludes to the reported issue of Cuban

In the House of Lords, last night, Granville
moved a second reading of the Irish land bill,
He said, in refraining from partisan topics he
would simply demonstrate tho necessity for this
legislation. Tho law, as it stood, was con
fessedly unsatisfactory. Tenure of land in
Ireland was insecure and abrupt evictions with
out compensation for improvements were com
mon. Landlords hod their grievances too.—
Rente were lower and their payment less certain
in Ireland than in any other country in Europe,
while tho interest on bonds and mortgages was
greater. Ho referred to difficulties landlords
had with their tenants, and outrages which re
suited, and analyzed previous attempts at legis
lation on tho subject. A final settlement was
now sought for. It had been impossible hith
erto, bnt now it was possible. Ho proceeded
to show that tho tendency of the present scheme
was to produce prosperity, order and peace.
Lord Richmond denied there was a necessity
for the bill. He read a number of letters to
prove that landlords were all gentlemen of
consideration. Exceptions were possible, bnt
too few to warrant the present legislation. Af
ter urging other objections, the noble Lord said
he should not oppose the measure, for fear
worse would follow its rejection; but he hoped
certain amendments which he suggested would
be adopted.
Lord Russel advocated its passage without
farther amendments.
Lord Dufferin said largo landlords defended
the provisions as they stood, and deprecated any
alteration.
Lord Salisbury spoke against, and Lord Kim
berly for the bilL
Lord March supported the measure in gen
eral, bnt took exceptions to some details.
Withont action, tho Honse adjourned.
