Five-Priests Indicted in Missouri.—We
have been surprised to read in the St. Louis Re
publican of a recent date, that five priests,—
Fathers Knowd, McGerry, Ryan, O’Reagan and
O’Donoughoe, gentlemen who constituted the
faculty of St. Vincent’s College in that State,
distinguished for their learning and refinement—
have been indicted by a grand juiy, and called
to appear before a criminal court to answer to the
indictment which has some reference to the “test
oath,” so called, the constitutionality of which is
now before the Supreme Court of the country.
When the cases were called, the reverend fathers
petitioned for a postponement until next term in
order, that they might continue teaching the
Seminarians until next June. They were accor
dingly held to bail in $1000 each.
The arrest was made on a Saturday night, but
they gave bail to appear on Monday, and the ar
resting officer left. The people on Sunday were
in the highest degree excited, and it might have
required but a word to arouse them to armed re
sistance. But the good priests used their influ
ence in another direction. It is a fine and a beau
tiful commentary on the spirit of the Catholic re
ligion which counsels obedience to law and au
thority. The Fathers instead of complaining
and exciting feeling already too much aroused
sat them an example, iu the other direction.
Tlie church at the 10 o’clock,.Mass, was densely
crowded. After the Gosp^t (which was about
John in prison,) the officiating priest preached a
beautiful sermon on patience. He showed to his
congregation that they should not be angry
against the people who" had caused the trouble,
and in the end commanded the Catholic portion
of the inhabitants, by all the authority he had
over them not to say or do anything that could
get up an excitemenL
Father McGerry, one of the parties arrested, is
described as a venerable old man, over seventy
years of age, the friend of Bishop Dubois, the
second superior of Mount St Mary’s College,
Emmetsburg, and for many years pastor of a
church at Washington. His memory is full of
recollections of the past time, stories of the re
volution, iu which his fathers foughL He is a
man whom all love and revere for his goodness,
juid kindness. It was a strange thing to see that
line old man stand at the bar of a criminal court
charged with a crime unknown to the laws. It
is to be hoped that before the case is called for
trial in June, better counsels will prevail, and
that these unoffending and loyal priests will be
permitted to depart unmolested to pursue their
mission ot love, charity, and good wiH to men.
; The Nashville Union db American says:
A highly intelligent gentleman direct from
Washington, who has enjoyed the privilege of a
general and unrestrained intercourse with cabinet
officers and members of Congress, gives it as his
opinion that a war with France, growing ont of
Mexican complications, is inevitable. Wo see
nothing to warrant such a conclusion, and would
not think it worthy of note but for the highly
intelligent and responsible source from which it
comes.

A Foreign War,
The following sound views in response to a
foreign war, are put forth by the New York
Round Table, one of the best weekly journals
published in the North. We commend them to
the serious attention and consideration of all
those inconsiderate individuals whose voices are
“still for war,” whether they be of the radicid
family North, or their opposites in the South—
two extremes which we trust will never meet in
advancing or sustaining any such policy as that
of a war now with foreign nations, in order that
the Mexican Maximilian Empire may be over-
throwfi; not that we favor that usurpation, but
that we are for peace now with “all the world
and the rest of mankind
“In view of the unsettled condition of the
country, the extreme poverty of the Southern
people, the great problems of race and labor
which are demanding solution, and the adjust
ments required by our tremendous financial bur
dens, every one who has at heart the best inter-
«. lv ai .
*sk
of the great Empire on our
i is an impossibility. Suppose
that our Government were to recognize Maxi
milian as Efiiperor of Mexico, what woulifbe the
result ? Examine the question fairly unbiased by
any national *pn£udice.’’
“For once, forget the Monroe doctrine,* however
flattering that may be to our pride, ana look tho
facts of the ume fall in the face. It is clearly tor
our interesWo have a stable government in
Mexico, and as the natives have shown them
selves incapable of self-government, somebody
must govern them. We do not want that some
body to be Maximilian tig any one else but our
selves. The question, tiieb^gifeea, how can this
end be b^st obtained ? WsEP tbe Empire recog
nized and its stability secftrbdfthere would be an
immense influx of emigrants from the. United
States in Mexico, who would be attracted by its
bouudless mineral resources. up under
a fitoe government, th
cana^end the two parties would unite for the
ootiTrow of.the Empire. American brains
wonel .supply what tbe Mexicans fnlve always
lacked, and some fine day news would be received
of the dbbarturc of Maximilian for a more conge
nial dbu •. The step from that to iujfeegcatioii to
the United States would be a shaft qB&and then
a lasting farewell to revolutions indifcxicp. Spee-
nlation as this is, it is worth cosaKtttriogy esjie-
einlly if it be the only alternative td § wifewitli
France for an idea. ,

An IntemUag ftaMltoa,
The New York Herald has the following: .
“The President of tlie Senate, Mr. Foster, of'
Connecticut, now occupies, to-all hllenb and
lrposes, the position of Vice President of the
nited States. In the event of the death of
President Johnson, therefore, in the interval to
18G8, Mr. Foster, as he now stands, would be
come President of the United States. He is un
derstood to be a sort of semi-radical, semi-con
servative Old-Line Whig; but it is probable that
tliis is not enough for the leading Radicals.
Hence there may be some truth in the report
afloat that there is some talk of a change in the
presiding officer of the Senate. Perhaps Charles
Sumner may be the coming man. Who knoWs?
In any event, we trust that the life and health of
President J olinson may be spared to the country
to the end of his present term of office and for
many years after its expiration.”
We subjoin the provisions of the constitution,
and the law of Congress upon the subject, from
which it will be seen that the Herald is in error.
Art. 1. Sec. 3, Paragraph 5, of the Federal Con
stitution says:
“The Senate shall choose their other officers,
and also a President pro tempore, in the absence
of the Vice President, or when fie shall exercise
the Office of President of the United States.”
Art. 2, Sec. 1. Par. 5, says: “In case of the re
moval of the President from office, or of his death,
resignation, or inability to discharge the powers
and duties of the said office, the same shall de
volve ou the Vice President, and the Congress
may by law provide for the case of removal,
death, resignation, or inability, both of the Pres
ident and Vice President, declaring what officer
shall then act as President, and such officer shall
act accordingly,'until the disability be removed,
or a President shall be elected.”
Congress passed “An act relative to the elec
tion of a President and Vice President of the
United States, ^and declaring the officer who
shall act as President in cases of vacancies in the
offices both of President and Vice President,”
approved March 1, 1792, which provides;
Sec. 9. “And be it further enacted, That in case
of a removal, death, resignation, or inability, both
of the President and Vice President of the United
States, the President of the Senate pro tempore,
and, in case there shall be no President of the
Senate, then tlie Speaker of the House ot Repre
sentatives, for the time being, shall act as Presi
dent of the United States, until the disability be
removed, or a President shall be elected.”
Sec. 10. “And be it further enacted, That when
ever the offices of President and Vice President
shall botli become vacant, the Secretary of State
shall forthwith cause a notification thereof to be
made to the Executive of each State, and shall
also cause the same to be puplished in, at least,
one ot the newspapers "printed in each State,
specifying that electors of the President of the
United States shall be appointed or chosen, in
the several States, within thirty-four days pre
ceding the first Wednesday in December, then
next ensuing:
Provided, There shall be the space of two
months between the date of such notification and
the said first Wednesday in December; but if
there shall not be the space ot two months be
tween the date of such notification and the first
Wednesday of December, and if the term for
which the President and Vice President last in
office were elected shall not expire on the third
day of March next ensuing, then the Secretaiy
of State shall specify in the notification, that the
electors shall be appointed or chosen within
thirty-four days preceding the first Wednesday
in December "in the year next ensuing, within
which time the electors shall accordingly be ap
pointed or chosen, and the electors shall meet
and give their votes on the said first Wednesday
in December, and the proceedings and duties of
the said electors and others shall be pursuant to
the directions prescribed in this acL”
Heavy Swindle—How Mr. Hogg Hogged
it to the tune of $15,000.—One of the most
gigantic attempts at swindling, we have heard
of in this city for a long time, was attempted
yesterday by a man who gave his name as Frank
Hogg, of Macon, Ga., ana who said he was the
senior member of the firm of Hogg & Co., of that
place.
Pretending to have visited the city with a view
lo laying in a miscellaneous stock of goods, he
visited various wholesale houses in this city, and
made purchases, amounting, in the aggregate, to
some $12,000 or $15,000, and in payment pre
sented checks on the First National Bank of Cin
cinnati, which, it was soon discovered, were
forged.
The merchants here had been led to suspect
that all was not right, as he pretended to be doing
business in Macon, yet ordered his purchases to
be sent to Mobile; and they then telegraphed to
the fanner place to ascertain if there were a firm
in that city, entitled “Hogg & Co.,” and they re
ceived as a reply that there was not, and they at
once set detective Cavitt on the track, who was
not long in finding the villain. At about two
o'clock yesterday, he was arrested near the post
office, and sent to jail, in default of bail, for his
appearance on Monday, before ’Squire Meacham
for examination.
His swindling extended to a number of houses,
but so quickly were his pranks discovered that
he only realized $50 in cash, which he obtained
from a" prominent cigar house on Cherry street,
above Union, where he made a purchase of $850
worth of stuff, when he presented a draft for $900,
and got $50 in change.—Nashville Union. {

Mr. Fessenden called up the bill to authorize

Mr. Sumner offered ait> ameu&aent that no

without being obliged to take ths oath required
by act of Congress.
Mr. Fessenden objected to-the amendment
There was a law in the statute bock, requiring
the oath to be taken, and theproriaion offered by
Mr. Sumner was unnecessary. Mr. Sumner said
that the Secretaiy of the Treasvra had, in a pub

oath. Sumner subsequently withdrew hia amend
ment and the bill was passed.

Terrible Casualty.—It becomes our painful
duty this morning to toy before our readers the
particulars of one of the most distressing events
that has ever occurred in our city. On Tuesday
evening Mrs. Lewis, an elderly tody, 88 years of
age, wife of John .Lewis, Esq., one of our oldest
and most highly esteemed citizens, while attend
ing upon her invalid husband, who is upwards of
83 years of age, at the residence of Noble A. Har
dee, Esq., on liberty street, accidentally set fire
to her clothing while passing an open grate, and
was so shockingly burned that death ensued in
a few hours, relieving the patient sufferer from
her terrible tortures.
Mrs. Lewis was one of those estimable Chris
tian women Whose shining virtues, even in her
declining years, made her name a synonym of all
that was liigh and ennobling, and our entire com
munity, while deploring her untimely death, will
keenly sympathise with her afflicted relatives who
are thus suddenly called upon to submit to one
of those mysterious dispensations that so often
fell to the lot of mankind.
The heroism Mrs. Lewis displayed in her ago
ny was a noble, but fearful spectacle to witness.
While the flames enveloped her body, she calmly
walked from the chamber where her deerepid
husband was confined, to prevent the flames from
endangering the life of him she loved. Standing
in the entry, her grandchildren saw the flames
and endeavored to extinguish them, but fearing
they would bum themselves, she refused to allow
them to approach her. - The screams of theteiri-
fied children -aroused the household, and Mr.
Noble Hardee, with the members of his family,
made herculean efforts to subdue the flames, but
in vain. Was there ever a more exalting picture
of that undying Christian faith which could only
be inspired in a pore heart i—Sav. Republican.

The coutinned interference in railroad transportation
with the, West causes a scarcity in produce heretofore
drawn from that section, and a consequent upward ten
