By the non-nrrival of type, which was ex pected a week ago, we have failed to present the appearance we hope to do next week. Our Local Columns. Our local columns were neglected in this, our first issue, on acconnt of the pressure of other matter. In future we shall endeavor to ehroniolo all tho important local affairs of the week. To Our Readers. We call tho attention of our readers to the advertising columns. Our advertisers are re sponsible and reliable business men, and our country merchants will find it to their inter est to patronize them. Alantic and Gulf Railroad. We had the pleasure to travel on fhis road last week, and were surprised to find the great improvements that had been made for the comfort and eare of passengers. The Presi dent and the Superintendent of the road have earned the thanks of the travelling public for their labors in their behalf. Amusement for Next Week. Tho amusement seekers will be highly en tertained every night during the coming week. First we have the Celebrated HAVERLV MINSTRELS, who appear on Monday and Tuesday nights. This far-famed “burnt cork’' Company, is one of, if not the best companies in the United States, and will not fail to draw large bouses. Next comes SHERIDAN A MACK’S great Comedy Company, who also appear on Monday night, and continues for the three following nights. Their well known reputa tion needs no commendation from us. HOWE's GREAT LONDON CIRCI'fI is billed for Friday and Saturday. This will be one of the greatest entertainments ever of fered to a Savannah public* In connection with the circus performance, will be Sanger’s gigantic Menagerie, consisting of all the known animal curiosities. This company per formed, during the past week, at the State Fair in Macon, and by some of our citizens, who attended the performance, we are told that it never rivalled in the Southern States. What the Pope Will Ask of Us When He Can Do so by the Use of His Voting Subjects in our Country. The circular of the Papal Nuncio to Spain, is thus summerized by the London Times : “The Nuncio claims the fulfillment of the ( oncordat, which forbids the exercise of any non-Catholic creed, and requires the transfer of the superintendence over education to the r * er gy> ftnd pledge* the co-operation of the ecu!ar power in suppressing heretical teach ing and literature.” The circular says: “One •and the causes of the civil war is the way in which religious unity has been misunder stood by previous governments. For these reasons, and in view of these consequences, rhe Holy See believes itself strictly obliged to present the*e observations to the govern ment.” The Time? correspondent adds that there i* no doubt that the presentation of this au dations claim, at a time when a Liberal Cab inet has just been installed, implies a threat *ba? if the government rejects it, the blessing ' f the Church will be definitely transferred to Don Carlo? and peace retarded in every possible way. 1 From Our Augusta Correspondent. THE GUI BOR D CASE. It ha.? of late, become a matter of considera ble thought and anxiety to a large an l intel ligent class of our citizens, to know what po sition the extravigant claims of Catholicism places our Catholic fellow-citizens in with regard to obedience, and respect to our civil law and courts. The “Weekly Register” of Sept. ISth, has an article under the title of “The Sanctity of the Catholic cemetery,” a thoughtful reading of which will do much to wards enlightening the minds of such a9 feel an interest in this matter. The “Weekly Registei” is among the mo9t popular of the Catholic papers published in this courtry and may, therefore, be supposed to rpeak with a certain amount ot authority. After some pains taken in showing how Catholics respect their cemetery after being consecrated, how any unholy deed committed in any part of one of the consecrated places, or any excommunicated person or non-Cath olic, hurried within it desecrates the whole of it, and how, after such desecration, the ground has to be reconsecrated, or “reconciled.” The “Register” goes on by a kind of reasoning, which, I have no doubt, is quite conclusive to all who are of their own persuasion, to prove that as their church, according to the rights of associations honest before the law, to be governed by such regulations “as suit the members,” may require such conditions of membership as they think right, and may make adherence to such conditions necessary to admission to, or retention of membership, and as the sanctity of the Catholic burying ground, partakes of the sanctity of the church. The church has the right to prevent any one from being buried there who has not conformed to the conditions of membership. This position which the “Register” takes would be perfectly good and sound, were it not for the existence of a fact in tho case, which he has particularly in view, which is very convenient for him should remain out of sight. As he, (Guibord) chose to die as one of those out of Catholic comtminino, why should ho not be buried among those ho re sembled while living? asks the Register. The true answer to this question, which I am satisfied the writer could have supplied as readily as he did the query, had it suited his purpose, furnishes tho reader with the means of unmasking the fallacy of the “Register’s” reasoning. It is because Guibord has bought and paid for a burying ground within the Catholic cemetery, in which tho remains of his wifo had already been deposited, and where it was but natural lie should desire his own bones to rest with hers. Tho church had for a money consideration, sold to Guibord a well defined plot of ground to be used as a burial place tor his family'. Tho transaction between the two parties was purely a civil one, and the jurisdiction of the civil power was tho only security Guibord had against breach of contract or deprivation of his civil rights. And yet the “Register” exclaims, with regard to the riotous mob who attacked tho funeral procession, and would have outraged “the dead body if they had not been prevented. We re spect the outburst of their feelings, because the decision of the Privy council of the Queen of England was not justice, not law, but a brutal outrage on law that would justify a revolution in Canada.” Observe what a commentary this supplies on the loudly boa ted Catholic allegiance of which we have heard so much of late. Here we have a clear and distinct declaration, that the enforcing by the civil power of a principle of law, which is not approved by the Catholic church in some of its applications, but which is a necessary feature of the constitution of every free government on earth, is held by the “Register” and its fellow-thinkers, to be a justification of a revolution, and this too, by a religious sect, who claim loudly to bo the only true conservators of civil and political liberty. The attempt of the “Register” to make the invasion of the sacredness of the domicile, and interference with the private and social rights of the family, appear to be of a par allel nature to tho enforcing of the law in Guibord’s case is perfectly futile, as far as all who are gifted with plain common sense, and who are cognisant of the facts are concerned. Although the incidents to which the article in the Register refers, have occurred in the dominions of the British Empire, yet the case is one of no small interest to the citizens of the United States, for a similar case might occur at any time in any of the States or Territories under our government. It must, appear perfectly clear to every unprejndieed person, that under the same circumstances, the supreme court of Georgia, or of any State in the union, could not equitably adopt a course different from that followed by the Privy council of Great Britain, or render a decision that would not be in accordance with its decision. We think there is very little danger that the fanatical ravings of the “Weekly Regis ter, assisted by the anathemas of Bishop Bourget, will cause a revolution in Canada, and it is just as unlikely that any excitement they may be able to get up in the States con cerning this matter, will bring them any in crease of sympathy or influence. The particular importance of such incidents to the general body of the citizens lies in the information that may be derived from them* regarding the aggressive nature of the Roman system, and the various workings by which it Is slowly sapping the foundation of every national constitution, in whose soil the mall cst seedling of the tree of liberty has taken root. The apprehension and anxiety, caused by the absoluteness of this system, and the boldness, with which it urges it? arrogant claims, have produced an amount of agita tion among the people of a great part of the civilized world, which is unprecedented, sincr the reformation. It is, therefore, of great consequence, in these ominous times, that the public should be made well acquainted with every peculiarity of Catholicism, that may have the remotest bearing upon politics or civil government. Cardinal Manning, ha? plainly intimated from the public platform, that be is expecting a great and bloody war of nations—a religious war, by which the Catholic church is to regain h**r ascendency, and temporal power, and the Pope to rule the world once more. Let us pray that the cit izens of this great country may study this important subject so closely in all its phases, that when the anticipated great crisis comes, they may be able, with the assistance of God’s providence, not only to keep bloodshed away from our shores, but to retain our rights and liberties, intact and unfettered. 4 Bkhean. j TIIE OHIO ELECTION. The just hopes of tho West tuul South have tipi'll ilisnppointed at the result ot the canvass in Ohio. Two elements contributed to the disastrous re.-tilt Rnllionists and Romanists. The first by ;i lavish expenditure of money and the sophistries of the hard money doc tors, and the latter by the ostentatious announcement that every Romtmist | would vote the Democratic ticket. There is. however, this compensation for the disaster, llmt linil Allen been elected, the Romanists would have claimed that to them belonged tlie victory, nnd would have therefore asked some concession to Rome. The following from tho Cincinnati Commercial (democratic) hears us out tn tho assertion that the defeat on the | issue of paper against gold was due to ! tiio adhesion of the Romans to ibe party j and the obloquy thence tesulting: “The fact of which we wish to advise out friends abroad is that, wo have np patently lost Ohio not because of, but notwitsstnndiiig, our tlnnncinl doctrine. Tt is important that our triends outside of Ohio should understand exactly what it was that defeated us. Wo were beaten, first by religion, second by frauds. We And In tlie Gazette of yes terday, the leading Republican organ of Ohio, this editorial statement: •The unbroken solid vote of the Is raelite Americans of Cincinnati was yesterday cast tor the Republican can didates.'’ And this : “The ‘unbroken solid vote’ of the Protestant German citizens of Cinolnati was yesterday cast for tho Republi • can candidates.” In the Times of yesterday we also And this : “Jhe school question, which so many excellent gonflemolt Imvo seen lit to belittle by their arrows of.sarcasm, lias, undoubtedly, played an important part in the canvass, it is certainly true that thousands of votes have been cast for the Republican ticket by voters 111 tiie rural distiiers on this question alone. “In tiie mining districts and in the cities where work was scarce and money short, tho financial question lias, un doubtedly, been the main issue, but in the country, where corn and other crops would grow in luxuriance in spite o the specie resumption law, it was hard to make tho brawny sensible farmer believe that all his prospects for tem poral ami spiritual health would be se riously impaired by tiie election of Hayes. He cared little for the finances, bnc much for the common schools. The schools so near his heart he felt to be indirectly in danger at least, and so with work and vote spoke nobly against sectarian interference, and tiie result shows most conclusive the uttor folly of of an attempted alliance between a groat political party and a great religious de nomination.” UNION ONCE MORE ! Wc are most happy to chronicle the following from tho telegraphic report to the News. It should be the effort of every right thinking man to cultivate a fra ternal feeling in place of the unhappy eontliets of the past. “United wc shall stand, divided we must fall. ’’ Let the blue and the grey shake hands and leave growling to confirmed and chronic sore heads: SOLDIERS' RE UNION. Elizabeth, N. J., October 10.—Tiie re-union ot tiie Union and Confederate soldiers formed in line to-day and marched to Waverly, where General j Prior and Kilpatrick spoke.
