veiy-jio'y religion, an* th© very grave
in-u!ts otilrcd to us an 1 to the Holy S o 1
by’the sub-Alpine government. Moreover,
you must comprehend with what grief wu
are seized, now that we sec that govern •
meat, with a passion that is iwrea.-iiig;
every day, constantly attacking the < 'utHb-1
lie Church, its wholesome laws, and all its. !
sacred ministers; when we . ala-,
venerable bi-bops, and the mast vir '
tuous clergy- both secular and regular, an 1
other roe < excellent Catholic citiz- ns. ,-nt
into exile by that government, without th
least rega or ha*

--demne-d to forced residence, molested iu
the most unworthy manner; »I!• - ■ - - de

Cltri-tian discipline and cciif©!-d to the
prolessors of errors and iniq itie-s, and th<
patrimony of the Church usurped utv.H

That same Government, y/t < nipt of
the h int rrj/nrd to our m. j-> jwit v nr. plaint*
j and those of oer venerable brethren tlie
! bishops of Italy, has sanction©'! similar
laws, totally contrary to th" Catholic

and condemned by us : and it ha- not
1. agitated to promulgate a law respecting
civil marriages, as it is called -a !„w quite
contrary p t only to (‘atholm doctrine but
Itkwise to the well L efcil -ociety.

Moreover, that government—‘muring in
, an evident manner the condition of, those
who make jrublic profession of rwigibus
tows, which have always had and
always will have force in God s Church,
and not recognizing the very great adVSiu
tage of the regular Order-which, founded
by men of holiness and approved by the
fitly Apostolic See, have in an espc-cial
manner deserved the thanks of the Chris
tian republic, civil aud literary, by so many
glorious labors aud so many pious and
useful works—lias not feared to sanc
tion a law suppressing throughout its en
tire territory ail religious corporations of
both sexes ; it has appropriated all their
property, and a great deal of oth x proper
ty belonging to tho Church, and has order
ed it to be divided. Before catering into
pot so ion of the Venetian province it did
not hesitate to extend thereto the same
laws, and it enjoined, contrary to all law
and justice, the total abrogation and anni
hilation of the ronv ution which was come to
between nr and our very dear eon in Jems
Christ , Francis Jos- gh, Emperor vs j
Iria.
Therefore, faithful to the very serious
duty of our apostolic ministry, we raise
anew in your most august assembly our
voice on behalf of religion, of the Church,
of its holy laws, the rights belonging to
the authority of this chair of St. Peter :
and with all our strength we deplore and
condemn all and each of the things which,
to the Church, its laws and its
rights have Lcou decreed, done and at
tempted by the sub-Alpine government,
, and by all other subordinate authorities ;
and by our apostolic authority we abrogate
i and proclaim null and void, and without,
I force or effect, all the aforesaid decrees and
: everything that appertains to them.
\\ e likewise beg their author, who glory
J in the name of Christians, to hear in mind
! and seriously to consider that they have
unfortunately incurred the censures and
i the spiritual pains inflicted by the apostol
! ic constitution and the decrees of the gener
al councils upon whosoever should attack
| the rights of the Church.
You know, venerable brethren, that cor- 1
1 tain astute men oppose us, and interpret in !
: their own sense the blessing which we give to \
Italy when, assuredly without any merit |
of our own, but, thanks to tho impenetra- 1
bio judgment of God, wo spontaneously I
ptonouneod the words of pardon aud peace i
out of love for the people of the Pontifical i
S’ate. j
in truth, full o! solitude for tho welfare j
and happiness of the entire flock, asking
by our prayers from God the good of Italy, j
we besought him with fervor and humility :
that He might deliver her from the evils |
which afflicted her, and that the most pro- i
eiousgiltof the Catholic faith might be all j
powerful in Italy, and that rectitude of I
manners, justice, charity, and all Christian j
virtues might flourish there more and :
tnoro* Once more to-day we do hot cease !
to send up our most fervent prayers to God j
that in ilis goodness lie would deign to
remove from the Catholic people of Italy, !
'the many and great calamities of every j
kind which aro afflicting and assailing them ;
through the fault of the governors of Italy,
and iu consequence of a multiform perse -
cution. But, above all things, we beseech
our most merciful Lord to aid and fortify
by Ilis heavenly help the people of Italy,
in order that they may remain firm and
immutable in the Divine faith and in their j
religion, and that they may he able with ,
Christian fortitude to support and endure
I so many misfortunes and evils.
Foolish, however, are those who, on the j
strength of this, do notecase to demand of i
us, already despoiled, and with the most j
manifest injustice, of several provinces of
our pontifical territory, that we should re
nounce our civil sovereignty and that of
the Apostolic See. Surely every one must j
see how unjust and prejudicial _to the !
Church is such a demand. By a singular
arrangement of Divine Providence, as we .
have said on a former occasion, it happen
ed that the Roman empire hawing fallen,
and being divided into many kingdoms and
divers State, the Roman Pontiff, in the
midst of such great variety of kingdoms,
and in the actual state of human society,
was invested with his civil sovereignty, in
consequence of which, never being subject
to any lay power, he exercises in entire
liberty supreme authority and his jurisdic
tion over the Church, which has been
divinely confided to him by" our Lord Jesus
Christ. And the faithful, with full tran
quility of conscience and entire confidence,
obeying the decrees, warnings and orders of
the' Pontiff, submit them-clVes thereto
without entertaining the least suspicion
that his acts are subject to the will-and
impulse of any sovereign or civil power.
We cannot renounce the civil power estab
lished by the Divine wisdom of Provi
: donee for the good of the universal Cl arch.
We are bound, on the contrary, to dafdud
! that government, ami to protect the rights
of that civil Power, arid to complain strong
ly of the sacrilegious usurpation of tha
provinces of the Holy Sec, as we> have al
ready done, and as wj do now, remonstrat
' iug and protesting to the utmost of our
j power, -v v ■
Kvovy»<m»> knov. - that the’brshOprfPTVhe
Catholic world have m ver ceased to defi ed '
with Steal, oraiiy and in writing, our civil*
sovereignty arid that of the Apostolic See;
and all nave proclaimed that that sover
eignty, especially in the actual condition of
the attains of this world, is •absolutely
necessary to establish and defend the per
fect liberty of the Roman Pontiff, who
feeds all the Catholic flock —a liberty which
is >o intimately connected with the freedom
of the entire Church.
These same men fear not even to go
about crying everywhere that we ought to
reconcile ourselves with Italy—that is to
say, with the enemies of our religion who
boast themselves of having founded Italy.
But how can we, the appointed champions
and defenders of our most holy religion
and of the salutary doctrine of virtue and
of justice, who have to watch for the salva
tion of all, march in concert with those
who. not upholding the holy doctrine, and
; refusing to hear the truth, keep tin tnselves
away from us —those who would never
: condescend to grant our desires nor to meet
1 our demands, to the effect that so many
dioceses of Italy, deprived of their pastoral
consolation and protection, should have
their bishops ?
Would to heaven that all those who so
vehemently oppose the Church, us, and
this Apostolic See, turning their regards
and their souls to truth and justice, may
be enlightened once for all, and. thinking
:,{ themselves and looking to the good of
their souls, moved by holy repentance,
may endeavor to come back to us.
Nothing would be more agreeable to us
than to /ortranNo meet them, following
the example of our evangelical lather, and
toenh/aee titan, rejoicing in the Lord that
his children were dead and are a.ivc again
—that they went astray and have been
found. Then, indeed, it would be seen
that our venerable religion, the mother and
the fruitful nurse of every virtue, and the
scourge of vice, conduces equally to the
happiness of the individual and the wel
fare of all. Where religion and her whole
some doctrines prevail, there must neces
sarily flourish uprightness of manners, in
tegrity. peace, justice, charity, and all the
virtues. Then people are nor afflicted
with those grievous calamities which un
happily weigh upon them wheresoever re
bec m and its doctrines are not recognized.
By the deplorable facts, related summa
rily and with pain, and by the sad con
[ temporary events in Italy, everybody can
j easily see and divine to what great perils
tbi* Apostolic See i» exposed, and how it
' i. the mark of tho roost bitter threats of
r .V- llitm. tne hatred of unl*!ievers. and
the fnger oft he etn mies of Christ’s cross.,

<h perate enmities, declaring that tbit city
© Rome must share in this unhappy Itai
ln ; ©rturbaiioD and Tehcliioa—nay, must .
become its capital. But God, who is rich
in mercy, will, by His omnipotence, make
the impious counsels and desires of our '
enemies fail. He will not permit this ho-J
hie city, so dear to us, in which, out of His i
grv.t and .-ingular goodness, lie has fixed •
the chair of Peter, the impregnable basis
of his divine faith and religion, to return'
to that unfortunate condition so admirably
described by our holy predecessor, Leo the !

provided that, attentive and vigilant, we

the ijfio t. of the tl-ep anguish which af

v : i will always remain innnovabie,
triumphing over its enemies, until the cou
\ y-uumation of time. But it is exceedingly
Kiainful that it is not
! that a nation shall always preserve the
precious treasure of our divine fai h and of
I our religion. In truth, there aro .many
nations who have kept faithfully the de
posit of the faith and the discipline of its
manners ; but, alas ! they have been de
t-.cii -I from the rock upon which rests the j
edifice of the Church, and separated front
him to whom has been given the power to
confirm the brethren and to feed the lambs
and the sheep, not agreeing among them
selves, and, enveloped in the darkness of j
error, they are in the greatest danger as
to their salvation.
And here we cannot abstain, by reason
of our mission, from adjuring in the name
of the Lord all Sovereigns and other gov
ernors oft States to examine once for all ,
and carefully to consultr , the very grave
obligation they are under to endeavor that
love and respect for religion should in
crease among nations , and with all their
strength to preven t the torch of faith from
being extinguished among them.
Woe, then, to those Governors who. for
getting .that they are-the ministers of God
unto good, shall have neglected to promote
that worship when they could and ought.
It is for them to fear and tremble when
through their work especially they destroy
the most precious trwe-ure of the Catholic
faith, without, which it is impossible to
i please God. When they shall be summon
ed before the tribunal of Christ tor most
revere judgment, they shall see what a
dreadful thing it is to fall under the dis
pleasure of the living God and to feel his
strict justice. Finally, we cannot doubt,
venerable brethren, witnesses and compan
ions of out labors, appreciating your excel
lent and well known religion, your piety
arid your deep love for Catholicism, that
you will desire to unite your fervent pray
ers to ours, and to those of the whole
Church, and earnestly to conjure the very
gracious Father of mercies, in order that,
t hrough the merits of his only Son, our
Lord Jesus Christ, He would take pity on
Italy, on till Europe. '. and on the entire
world, and that by Ilis divine omnipotence
would cause that, after the destruction of
all errors and the cessation of bitterness
and perturbations, His holy Church may
fully enjoy entire liberty and peace —that
human society may he freed from the many
evils that afflict it, and all that nations may
he blended in the unity of the faith and in
acknowledgment of Ilis Son, walking in
the paths of tho Lord, and producing fruits
in good works of every kind.

Another T.etter to Punch.
dr. Clinch, My Dear Sir :—l skurcely
need inform you that your excellent. Tower
is very pop’iav with pcplc from the agri
eultoora! districts, and it wu* chiefly them
class which I found waitin at the gates the
other mornin. *
I saw at once that the Tower was estab
lished on a firm basis. In the entire his
tory of firm hasisis 1 don’t find a basis more
firmer titan this one.
“You have no Tower in America?” said
a man in the crowd, who had somehow de
tected my denomination.
“Alas! no,” I anserd; “we boste of our
enterprise and improvements, and yib we
arc devoid of a Tower. America, oh my
unhappy country! thou hast not got. no
Tower i It’s a sweet boon.”
The gates was opened after awhile, and we
all purehist tickets, and went into a waitin
room.
“My liens," said a pale-faced little man,
in black close, “thisis a sad day.”
“Inasmuch as to how?” said I.
‘T mean it is sad to think that so many
peple have been killed within these
gloomy walls. My Irens, lot us drop a
tear I ’
‘No,” I said, “Y on must excuse me.
Others may drop one if they feel like it;
hut as lor me, I decline. The early maua
gers of this institootion were a bad lot, and
t heir crimes was trooly orfuj ; but I can’t
sob for those who died four or live hundred
years ago. If they was my own relations,
I couldn t. It's apsurd to shed sobs over
things that occurred durin the rain of
Henry the Three. Lotus be cheerful.” I
contmered : “Look at the festiv Warders,
i in their red flanuil jackets. They are cheer
ful, and why should it not be thusly with
: US?”
A \\ ardor now took ns in charge, and
< showed us the Trater’s Gate, the armors,
i and tilings. The Tratcr’s Gate is wide
j onuff to admit about twenty traters abrest,
; I should jedge; but beyond this, I couldn’t
; seehat it was superior to gates in general.
Traters 1 will acre remark, are a onfort
i'tit class of peple. If they wasn't, they
wouldn the traters. They conspire to bust
up a country—they fail, and they’re tra
iers. They bust her, and they become
i statesmen and heroes.

onto a iiwmiif steed, his right hand gras

The room where the daggers and pistills
and other wippins is kept is interestin.
Among this collection of choice cutter]v I
notist the bow and arrer which those hot

with. It is quite like a bow and arrer used
at this dav by eertin tribes of American In
juns. and they shoot cm off with such a
excellent' precision that I almost sigh’d to
be a Injun, when I was in the Rocky
Mouutin regin. They are a pleasant lot
them Injuns. Mr. Cooper and Dr. Catlin
have told us of the red man’s-wonderful
eloquence, and* I found it -o. Our party
was stopt on the plains of Utah bv a band
of Shoshones, whose chief said, "Brothers!

Tlie Amber Rosary*
Ah me," this rosary in other lands
Has learned more prayers than I shall
ever know:
Its slow beads, slipped and smoothed by
pious hands,
Whose pulses stopped a hundred years
ago.
It keeps an odor mystical and dim,
As ol old" churches where the censer
swings,
Where, echoing to the echo-chanted hymn,
The sculptured angels fold their marble
wings.
Where through the windows melts the
unveiling light,
And in its passage leaves their gorgeous
stain,
Then bars the gloom with rays all rainbow
■ bright
As human hearts grow beautiful through
pain.
One birthday—it might ho a year ago,
Or fifty, or a thousand,—one who smiled
Counted these beads and praised their
marvelous glow,
Saying ‘ I bring a gift to you, dear child :
‘An amulet, notmade of gems or gold,
But drops of light imprisoned from
above;
Gold were too heavy, gems too hard and
cold,
And only amber suits the soul of love.
‘ What fitter birthday token eould I give?
See how the clear orbs answer to tho
sun;
I clasp them at your throat, and you shall
live
A perfect golden year for every one.’
Then why tho cross?’ I asked. He
sighed and said,
1 For possible sorrows.’ Ah, these use
less tears ;
The hand which placed it here, now cold
and dead,
Forgets to twine for me thegoldon years ;
Forgets to bless her waiting head who
wears
For his dear sake these amber beads to
day -,
Forgets to make the cruel cross she bears
Grow lighter as the birthdays wear away.
Yet. still the amber gleams, and unawares
Turns all to gold beneath its mellow ray ;
Oh, pure hearts, glowing with remem bored
prayers,
Plead lor her peace who has no heart to
pray.

days. The black vilian entered the house
about 10 o’clock, and tiding the lady alone
made a foul proposal to her, accompanying
it with threats of personal violence, and ,
even _ death, if she did not submit. In I
addition to !«sr entreaties to be spared ■
from his brutish passion- she held out a 1
sum of money which he finally, tocjc, and j
also a pistol which itruck his fancy; but !
after receiving these, in spite of her strug- j
glcs aud entreaties, he accomplished his
foul purpose and hastily left, and up to this

description of the rascal identifies him as
a negro who was arrested as %vagrant and
suspicious character, and lodged in the

Thursday night. The friends of the lady
are highly exasperated at the affair, and it
is hoped that his arrest will-,speedily be
made and summary justice dealt out to
him. The officers are on his track.

REVIEW OF THE All til'ST A MARKET,
FOR THE WEEK ENDING NOV. 24TH, 1860.
[lt should be borne in mind that our
quotations represent wholesale prices. Small
bills, to l&rntcrs and others, arc filled at a
shade higher rates.]
— The depression of the
Liverpool and Now York cotton markets,
of course, re-acts injuriously upon the local
market. Not onlyg.s this the case in re
gard to cotton, for every department of
trade feels the depression of a decline in
our chief product, and a consequent stag
nation of business generally. Ah active,
advancing market never tails to induce the
country people to send in tlxoir cotton,
which, being converted into greenbacks,
finds its way into thu bands of the mer
chant in exchange for various goods.
Hence it is that the tone of the cotton mar
ket here regulates, in a measure, other
branches of mercantile pursuits.
The amount of business done during the
week will compare favorably with that of
the preceding week. The general market
cannot, however, be classed as brisk, but
rather dull for this season of the year. As
compared with former years it may bo
termed fiat.
COTTON—At the close of the last review
the market closed dull, and opened on .Sat
urday morning drooping, closing dull and
irregular. Buyers demanded concessions,
which holders would not grant. Sales con
sequently small, being only JET bales, with
receipts ol' 183 bales.
The market opened with a bettor feeling
Monday. Holders remained firm, and
some 201 bales changed hands at from 31@
32 for strict to good middling. The market
closing with an improved tone.
The market opened quiet Tuesday. Un
der the infiuenco of half cent advance in
the New York market, there was a slight
ad vance, aud the market closed firm. Sales
of the day 230 bales. .Strict to good mid
dling 314®32* cents. Receipts 300 bales.
Wednesday the market opened firm,
with a fair demand, at a half cent advance,
closing quiet but steady. Sales of the day
240 bales. Strict middling 32. Good mid
dling 33. Receipts 800 bales.
Thursday being a holiday, very little was
done, though wo heard of a few sales at
Wednesday’s figures.
Friday the market opened very flat, un
der Iho news of a decline in the New York
market of half cent. Purchasers wanted a
decline, but holders wero not disposed to
give way. Tho news from Liverpool at
noon of a firmer market with sales of
10,000 bales, gave strength to our market,
which closed firmer. Luring the day 258
bales were sold at about half cent off from
Wednesday’s figures. Strict middling 311.
Receipts 059 bales.
Total sales for the week, ending Friday,
November 23, P. M., are 1,053 bales.
COTTON STATEMENT.
Stock, September 1 9,088
Receipts to November 17 18,970
Receipts this week 2,592
Total 30,050
The following are theshipments of cotton
by the different railroads for the week
ending Saturday, Nov. 21th, 1800:
Georgia Rai road bales - 1,458
Augusta & Savannah Railroad 389
Soutli Carolina Railroad 1,834
Total shipments 3,681
Notwithstanding tho unsettled condition
of the New York market welookforan ad
vance in Liverpool during tho coming
week. In such an event, New York goes
up, and our local market will,'of course,
be benefited. Cotton will rebound, and
that before long. Large crop estimates are
being exploded and the belief in a short
one is having its effect; slowly, it is true,
but surely.

S/W-i SUFEItIOK COURT, November Bth, 1806—
His Honor, James S. Hook, Judge presidiug. The Grand
Jurors, sworn, chosen and selected for the county of Striven,
fur tho November Term, eighteen huuared and sinty sis, beg
leave to make tire following General Presentment:
We find that from the custom prevailing in this county, viz:
of examining Uie records at the Spring Term of Uie Superior
Court, the last Grand Jury acted upon this matter, and wo en
dorse their approval of them.
We respectfully recommend to our representative in the
Legislature, Mr. Edmund B. Gross, that he try to iiave a bil 1
passed relieving us from the payment of the State tax until
we can erect a Court House, and that the money accruing
from said tax be appropriated to said purpose.
Were emmend that the Inferior Court at once put in tho.
rough repuir tho Jail ofthe County. It can be doneatasmall
expense, anji we invoke those odlcem to look into this matter
at once.
We find that wc, as a county, are entitled to money in &r
--rears for educational purposes, and wc beg the proper author!-
ties to iook to tins matter at once, of paramount importance
Wc hud tins to be a question at the greatest moment, as we
believe a well instructed people alone can be a free people
Wc respectfully recommend that the act of the Legislature
organizing the County Court be so amended, at least in refer
cm; lothecountyorscriven, that will relieve tlie people of
the county from the enormous Jury duty they are called upon
Tile roads and bridges, if they need repairs, we respectfully
ask tho proper authorities, in their discretion, to give them
attention.
Wc are gratified to know that His Honor, Judge Hook, has
consented to become a candidate force election. His prompt
urbane and consistent conduct entitle Mm to our confidence
and support, aud we cheerfully accord it to him. Wc thank
lnm for Uie courtesy extended In us during the present term,
and we take great pleasure ]u the recommendations we have
above made.
Wc beg also the privilege of retsmlngour thanks to J.fl*.
C. Whitehead, Solicitor General, for his courtesy and atten
tion, and commend him for his zeal ami fidelity in prosecuting
the business of the State.

LwSr* p,irlfjr ~IC Blood.—ls the
blood be pure the body which is formed from
ami by the blood cannot lie diseased. Hut if there be in any
part ofthe body any affection, such as a boil or ulcer, even a
bruise, the blood circulating through that part, takes up im
pure matters from the local affection and carries it into the
general system. This is the cause often of sudden deaths to
persona of full habit afflicted with bolls and ulcers, and wlio
use no medicine ; the matter gets into the circulating system
aud chokes up the fine blood vessels which supply the brain
with vitality, and life ceases as if
BEIIEFT BY LIUHTMXO.
Now, this can be remedied.

take all impure matters from the circulation, and save the
general health, soon curing local affections also. BRAN
