The President made a speech, stating
his anxiety to shift the responsibility of bis
office toother shoulders, but that as he was
again cho ion he would discharge the duties
of the office to the best of his ability. He
called upon the stockholders to report aoy
dereliction of duty upon the part of the of
ficers of the road. He frequently received
anonymous communications on this sub
ject and saw charges made in the newspa
pers under an anonymous signature. This
was unfair and ungenerous, and he again
begged the stockholders to report any
dereliction of duty to himself.
Mr. D. E, Butler, from the Committee
on the Rabun Gap Road, offered tho fol
lowing resolution :
Whereas the roccnt action of tho city
of Cincinnati, in proposing to issue $lO,-
000,000 of bonds to be appropriated to
ward tho completion, by rail, of the con
nection between Cincinnati and the South
ern seaboard may result in revival of the
Blue Ridge Railroad : be it
Rt wived, That, in approving the report
of the Rabun Gap Road, we hereby au
thorize tho President and Directors to ar
range for an early sutvey and the
ebt minted cost of the most practicable route
to intersect the Bluo Ridge Railroad.
Mr. E. E. Jones offered the following
resolution:
Whereas, it has been reported to this
Convention that the Macon & Western
Road proposed to extend their road by a
branch from Griffin to Ncwnan, and thence
toward North Alabama : be it
Resolved , That we authorize the Presi
dent and Board of Directors to take imme
diate action in relation to the line of road
between Madison and Griffin, to ascertain
the amount of stock that will be subscribed
along the line of road, the cost of construc
tion and other information.
A stockholder offered a resolution chang
ing the time for holding tho Convention
from the Tuosday aftor tho second Mon
day in May to tho Wodnesday after the
second Monday in May. Adopted.
Mr. D. E. Butler presented the follow
ing resolution passed some time sinoe by
the Board of Directors of tho Georgia Rail
road :
“ Resolved , That tho Company will en
dorse tho 7 per cent, bonds of the Macon &
August i Railroad for $370,000 on the fol
lowing conditions : First. That tho I’resi
dent and Business Committee shall be
first satisfied that the said endorsement
will secure tho completion of the road to
Mac .it and leave it free from debt when
completed to that point. Second. That
by special contract with tho said Macon &
Augusta Road the possession and use of
said Road shall be secured to this company
on lair aud equitable terms, whilst said
bonds remain uupuid or unprovided for,
and that a second mortgage shall be given
to secure this company, if at any time
hereafter required. 'Third. That those
resolutions shall bo submitted to and
ratified by the Convention of Stockholders
to meet iu May next.”
The Presidsnt made a brief statement of
tho present and iormor condition of the
Macon ft Augusta Railroad, lie declared
his anxiety to fiuish this jroad despite tho
charges made against him to the oontrary.
The road must be finished to Macon or his
support of the enterprise would be with
drawn. The chargo had been made that
the President of that road was not an
owner of stock and was illegally in his
office. Ho felt bound to say that these
charges wero true, but still tho city of
Augusta had control of the road and the
power was now with the municipal govern
ment to remedy tho evil. Ho thought that
tho resolution was the best possible under
tho circumstances.
On motion of Mr. 1). E. Butler tho ac
tion of the Directors was ratified.
On motion theConvc tion adjourned un
til throe o’clock this afternoon.
AFfKRNOON SESSION.
The Convent ioo was called to order at 3
o’clock p. iu , by tho President.
Mr. D. E. Butler moved that the report
ol the Port Royal Railroad Committee bo
taken up. Carried.
On motion of Mr. M. A. Cooper, the
President of the Port Royal Railroad, Mr.
t>. C. Millett, was invited to address the
Convention iu the interest of his road.
Mr. Stephen C. Millett made a short
speech, giving the history of the road and
the benefits the completion of this enter
prise would confer udou the Georgia Rail
road. and asking a subscription of #300,-
000 to the capital stock of the Company.
Mr. ,of South Carolina, and one
of tho projectors of the Port Royal Rail
road, also addressed the Convention in be
half of the enterprise.
Mr. M. A. Cooper, one of the stockhold
ers of the Georgia Railroad, advocated the
acceptance of the proposition of the Port
Royal Railroad, and moved that the mat
ter he referred to the President and Di
rectors of ’. he Georgia Railroad with power
to act.
Mr. t'teveus Thomas opposed the mo- j
tion on the ground that the road would in
jure the prosperity of Augusta without j
oooferiug a corresponding benefit on the
Georgia road. The West was tho point j
the Georgia road should look to at pres- j
ent, instead of the soaeoa-t
Mr. Moore uni' a short *p.-eeh in iavor .
of Mr. Thoina- view of the question.
Mr. T. P. Branch, thought that the •
people of Charleston aed the South Caro
lina Railroad Company were so embittered
against Augusta on account of the Coluru- 1
bia & Augusta Railroad dispute that they
had determined to cut off Augusta by
building a road from Aiken to Ninety-Six.
Mr. J • J. Cohen thought that tb e fees
of the lawyers employed by the South
Carolina Road would absorb all the surplus
funds of that corporation for some time
yet. That the bitterness felt by the
Charleston Road toward Augusta would
soon wear off, and the former be anxious
to effect a compromise. The motion to
refer was carried.
Mr. D. E. Butler read a nennrial from
the citizens of Rome, and the President of
the Rome Road, asking assistance by
means of which they may build a road
from Rome to the Alabama line. They
asked that the Georgia Road endorse the
bonds of the new line to the amount of
$250,000. He introduced to the Conven
tion W. S. Cothran, President of the
Rome Railroad.
Mr. Cothran addressed the Con vent ion
in a short speech, askiug the favorable
consideration of the above proposition by
thj stockholders, and introduced Mr. C.
H. Smith (Bill Arp), a member of the City
Council of Rome.
Mr. Smith made a brief speech in ad
vocacy of the measure.
On motion of D. E. Butler the memorial
was referred to the President and Board o
Directors with power to act.
On motion of a stockholder the Conven
tion adjourned sine die.
Election of a Superintendent.
After the Convention adjourned the Board
of Directors held a meeting for the pur
pose of selecting a General Superintendent
of the Road to serve during the ensuing
year. Col. E. W. Cole was, by a unani
mous vote, re-elected to the position.
Mr. 8. K. Johnson was elected Super
intendent of the road at the same meeting.
United States Court.—-We learn
from the Savannah Advertiser that on
Tuesday in this Court the case of Wiliam
Mathews vs. R. If. May. came up and was
tried, and was argued and submitted to the
jury, who, at last accounts, were locked
up in their room in deep meditation. This
is a case of peculiar hardship, at least to
Mr. May, who, at the outbreak of the war,
was Mayor of this city. Mathews Lad a
stock of goods here, and in August, 1861,
left the city and his store and went North.
A lady in bis employ turned over the key
to Mr. May, as Mayor of the city. As
Mathews did not return, his property was
ordered, confiscated by the Confederate
Government as being the property of an
alien enemy. The key of the store was
turned over by Mr. May to Dr. Daniels,
the sequestrating agent, by whom the
property was s >ld and proceeds -accounted
for to the Confederate Government—Mr.
May’s only part in the transaction being
to hold the key of the store, there being no
representative of the owner on the ground,
until called upon and compelled to deliver
it up to the authorities. Thtswasin 1861.
Mr. Mathews, now a resident of New
York, brings the suit to recover from Mr.
May the value of this stock of goods and
damages, in all amounting to about $30,"
000.
Savannah and Charleston Rail
road —Wo learn from the Charleston
Courier that a contract has been perfected
with Messrs. Win. 11. McDowell and Dan
iel C. Callahan for the entire rebuilding of
the road from its pres sat terminus on the
Coosawhatchie river to the city of Savatu
nab. The contract includes tho bridging
over the Savannah river and the erection
of all necessary bridges along the route of
the road; the c infractirs to furnish all the
rails, chairs, spikes and the iron work
necessary for the oonstruction of the wor;.
Messrs. McDowell and Callahan have been
connected with the mechauical department
of the road siuce 1858, having at that time
bsen entrusted with the work of building
the bridges, and filling various other posi
tions until its completion during the Presi
dency of General Thus. F. Drayton. An
important feature in the contract is that
tho entire work is to be completed by the
first day of January, 1870. The comple
tion of the road will add materially to the
commercial interests of our city, and the
work will be watched with interest. From
tho well-known character of tho contracto s
we feel warranted in saying that the terms
of the contract will be faithfully complied
with, and it is not unreasonable to suppose
that this fact will enhance the value of the
road. There is also a prospect that a con
tract will soon be concluded for the comple
tion of tho Port Royal Railroad, from
Augusta, Ga., to its junction at the Sa
vannah and Charleston Road.

Cuban Filibusters.
Matters seem to be rapidly drawing to a
foeus in the island of Cuba, and if all re
ports are true, we may soon- expect to j
hear of decisive battles between the insur
gents and the Spanish,forces and. probably,
the independence of the Queen of the Au
til’es. For several months past it has been
no secret that numerous expeditions have j
left this country to aid the insurgents, and i
nearly every day the telegraph brings in
telligence of the sailing of an additional
force for tho scene of insurrection. Talent
ed and expert need officers, who fought
against each other in the late war, have
forgotten their old enmity; and the ‘‘boys
in gruy” and the “boys in blue” now unite ;
lor the purpose of securing Cuban inde
pendence—and lining their pockets with
the “swag” which they expect to acquire
in that lovely island. From New |
York, Charleston, Baltimore, Savan
nah and New Orleaos have ves
sels loaded with men and muni
tions of warfare sailed, uutil it is now esti
mated that if none of the ships have been
captured by Spanish-mep-of-war (and we
have as yet hoard of no interception), at j
least ticelve thousand ex-Confelerate and
cx-United States soldiers, well armed and
equipped, have joined the forces of Cespe
des, the leader of the revolt. These men
are under the command of Jordan, Stead
maD, Ransom, Henuingsea and others,
and it is said that as soon as the junction is
formed with the insurgent-, the chief com- j
mand of the whole Cuban army will bo
conferred upon Jordan or Henningsen, j
both of whom are able and experienced
Generals. To meet these twelve thousand ;
fresh troops, veteran soldiers, who have
just passed through a four years’ contest in j
this counfry, the Spanish iceroy, Gen. ;
eral Pulce, ban an inferior force
of Spanish soldiers and a squad
ron of Spanish "vessels-of-war, which 1
will become entirely useless after a landing ’
has once been effected by the filibusters. ;
and a small minority of the inhabitants ot
the island, who have taken sides with the
i genera! government agamst their brethren.
| The Mother country, fearfully weak at all ;
| times, now distracted by internal dissen
; sions and threatened daily, herself, with a
| civil war, is in no condition to send aid to
. her forces iu Cubi, and the latter know
, that they have only themselves to depend
I upon for success. So far, however, the
insurgent* have been worsted in nearly
every contest with the Spaniards and the
! American filibusters will arrive, if they ar
j rive at all. just in time to save the Cuban
army from annihilation; and should the
i Spanish squadron intercept these recent
j expeditions, Cuba will have to postpone
. becoming a “State in the Union" until
| some day more distant.
As far as we have been able to learn
from our exchanges and other sources, the
j following expeditions have sailed from this
; country to Cubß within the past few
weeks, not including a small force under
j Qens. Henningson and Ransom and a
1 handful of filibusters from New Orleans,
who effecting a landing in the isiaud soon
after the struggle commenced :
j Five vooseis alone, laden with men and
munitions of wars have, accordirg to
1 the World, left New York harbor for Cuba.
The first ship was freighted with five hun
-1 dred and fifty men and was commanded by
I Col J. B. Johnson ; the second carried
three hundred men under command of
General Frank B. Spinola; the third car
ried six hundred and thirty-two men—
name of officer withheld; the fourth car
ried four hundred and eight men under
command of General French; the fifth,
which sailed last Tuesday, was the
steamship Arago , which carried four
hundred and twenty-four meD, eighty-four
officers of all ranks, ten thousand stands of
arms, six million rounds of fixed ammuni
tion, eighteen pieces of field artillery, four
thousand saddles and bridles, and a large
quantity of provisions and medical stores.
The saddles and bridles are intended for
the use of the corps of mounted infantry,
which Gen. Henuingsen has formed, that
arm being fuuod rxtremely useful in the
war with the Spaniards. The World gives
a full account of the embarkation cf this
last force —the dinner given the fillibusters
before their departure, speeches made by
some of the troops, the names of the tugs
which transpirted them to the Arago, and
all the circumstances connected with the
affair, which conclusively proves that the
expedition sailed with the full knowledge
and approval of the Federal aothorities.
The editorial staff of the B orld
were also shown a muster roll of the fili
busters who sailed on the Arago and it
was an old baited States muster roll. It
is roughly estimated that ffom 2,500 to
3,000 men have gone to Cuba from New
York and throngs of new recruits arc still
and illy enlisted in that city by the agents of
the revolutionists. Within the la3t thirty
three days, Baltimore, Charleston, and
New Orleans are. said to have furnished
between eight and nine thousand men wno
have sailed for the same destination. On
last Thursday night a dispatch was receiv
ed in New York from New Orleans an
nouncing that the blockade runners Peru
and Lillian, now regularly engaged in car
rying filibusters from New Orleans to some
point contiguous t> the Cuban coast, had
landed at the Island of Grand Inoqaa in
the Gulf, distant some twelve hours by
steam from the Florida Keys, and that the
troops had disembarked and gone into
quarters to await reinforcements. It is
also expected that a force of ten thousand
men will be conveyed from Mexico and the
West India islands to a point convenient
for a descent on Cuba, where they will be
reinforced and armed by the Arago ex
pedition, and the whole, placed under com
mand of Gen. Jordan, will endeavor to ef
fect a landing. With the sinews of war
the insurgents seem also well supplied, the
Cuban Committee in New lbrk having
furnished $385,000 in gold to equip the
Arago and boasts that it has nearly
$1,000,000 in gold remaining in tho treas
ury. It is sale, we think, to infer that the
emissaries of the “patriots” (as they style
themselves) in this country, have succeed
ed in effecting a logn of several millions of
dollars from the United States Govern
ment. If all these reports prove true we
will soon hear from Cuba that that island
has been wrested from the grasp of Spain
by means of men ana gold fur
nished by the United-States and is ready
for the Freedmcn’s Bureau and
Radical reconstruction,' or we may hear
that Messrs. Jordan, Steadman and their
followers, the boys in “gray’ and blue,
have been captured by the Spanish marine
and been treated, the leaders to a taste of
tho garote on tho Plazade Armas, at
Havana, the privates to a fusiladc in the
Cortina de Y aides. Os tho man wno is
most prominently spoken of as commander
of the Cuban forces, our readers have al l
heard and all know him to be a brave
and capable officer, though his course since
the war has greatly lowered him in the
public estimation. Gen. Thomas Jordan
is an old West Pointer, and one of the
most accomplished officers of the late Con
federate army. He served as ehief-of-staff
to Gen. Beauregard during the first three
years of the war, and was with him at
Charleston and Vicksburg, aud in Virgin
ia. During the Shiloh campaign, Gen.
Jordan conceived the idea that Jefferson
Davis, tho Confederate President, was
hostile to Gen. Beauregard, and he resent
ed an alleged slight to his chief then and
after the close of the war. When the
Confederacy fell, Jordan, like many of |
his brother officers, wont North. His
fortunes were entirely broken by the
contest, and he sought to obtain a
livelihood here in writing for the press.
His old grudge against Davis took form in
an article in Harper's Magazine, which at
tracted considerable notice at the time.
Gen Jordan also wrote upon military, ag
ricultural, and political subject? both for
the magazines and the metropolitan news
papers. He has been living in New Jer
sey, near New York, until the beginning
of the Cuban outbreak. Since then, his
presence at various places on the coast,
and particularly at Charleston aud New
Oilcans, has been noticed, and always in
connection with some movement in favor of
the Cuban cause. General Jordon is a man
of medium height, spare in form, and with
a quick, nervous manner. He has an in
tellectual head and features, and fine eyes,
aud when off duty is exceedingly courteous
in demeanor. Durins his military days in
tho South, though, he was often accused
of brusqueness and had the reputation in
the army of being a martinet. That he is
a thorough soldier by instinct and educa
tion cannot be questioned. He saw and
participated in some of the hardest fight
ing of the late war, and aside from his own
merit, had the advantage of a long person
al intercourse with General Beauregard,
who was certainly one of the first military
engineers of the war. If Jordan has half
of a chance in Cuba he will make himself
famous.
Db. Turr’s Sarsaparilla and Queen’s
Delight.—Attention is directed to tlie ad
vertisement of this valuable medicine, in
another column of this morning’s paper.
It is a Southern preparation, manufactur
ed in this city, in the laboratory of Messrs-
Tutt & Land, and will bo found all that
they claim for it. Over uity thousand
bottles of the Sarsaparilla have been sold
since its introduction, a fact which speaks
much for its value as a medicine. Messrs.
Tutt & Land have fitted up their Labora
tory with everything necessary for the
manufacture of this and other of Dr. Tutt s
preparations, and will be prepared to meet
the increased demand whicr will surely
take pises.
Meeting of the Stockholders oy i
the Macon & Aucusta Railpoad.—At
the last monthly meeting of the city Coun
cil it will be recollected that a resolution
was offered and adopted instructing the
Mayor of the city to consult with the other
stockholders of the Macon & Augusta
Railroad Company upon tha propriety of
holding a meeting at an early day, and
ousting the offices of the Company who
illegally hold their positions. This resslu
tion has beets faithfully carried out by act
ing Mayor Allen, and w« may soon expect
to hear of souse decisive action being
taken in the matter. On yesterday a letter
was received from the Mayor of Macon, in
responss to the communication of Mayor
Allen, in which that gentleman states that
a meeting of the City Council ot Macon
wi'l be held on next Tuesday to consider
the proposition. There is a strong proba
bility. we think, that arrangements will be
made for holding the Convention during
the latter part of the present month.
The American Odd Fellow.—New
York . John W. Orr, jo Nassau street.
$2 per yoar. We are iu receipt of the
May number of the above-named Maga
zine. It is the only authorized official
organ of the Order, and is in high repute
as a literary monthly, both amoDg the fra
ternity everywhere and tho loading public
at large. This popular family magazine
has a corps of able contributors on both
sides of the Atlantic, as well as live corre
! spondeuts in nearly every part of the world.
No Odd Fellow can be well po>ted without
it. The May number gives accounts of
the commemoration of the great Semi-cen
; tenoial Anniversary Jubilee throughout
the country, together with a large amount
of other valuable and entertaining matter.
A costly and elegant steel engraved por
trait of Grand Sire Farnsworth is present
ed to each subscriber of the American Odd
Ftlloic for 1669 TW is an opportunity
to obtain a splendid likeness of the present
distinguished Grand Sire (a beautiful
souvenir of the Grand National Celebration
at Philadelphia) which no member of the
1 fraternity should neglect.
The Macon <fc Augusta Railroad.
The present very unsatisfactory condi
tion of this rotd calls loudly for immediate
and decisive action on the part of the
stockholders. The city of Augusta is
deeply interested in the matter and,
through the action of the City CouDcil.has
invited the stockholders of the- Road to
unite with the city in a call for an early
meeting of all the shareholders. We trust
that this proposition wi'l meet with a
speedy approval from Macon, Milledge
ville, the Georgia Railroad, the South
Carolina Railroad, and the stockholders
along the line of the road, and that we
shall have a full meeting here within the
next fifteen or twenty days.
It i3 quite apparent now, notwith
standing the flattering rap :. we have
recently had, that the present organization
cannot complete the road. So far as we
have been able to learn,stockholders refuse
to make any further installments upon
thsir stock subscription, under the pres
ent management. Suitshave been threat
ened and much trouble will ensue if any
serious attempts should be made by Con
ley and his Board toforce any further pay
ments on the stock. The present organiz
ation is considered illegal. For oar own
part we have no doubt upon the subject.
The President of the road, and we believe
a majority of the Directors, do not own a
single dollar of the stock. The charter cf
the company requires that the officers and
Directors shall be stockholders.
While this condition of doubt and . un
certainty as to the legality of the action of
the present organization continues nothing
can bo done. With anew Board and
an active, intelligent President, the road
can be completed by the close of the year.
The assets of the company , if wisely man
aged, are, we believe, amply sufficient to com
plete the road. We want confidence in the
organization, and with confidence will ap
pear the means of completing the enter
prise. The stockholders are deeply inter
ested in this matter. They must arouse
themselves if they would secure the fruits
of their enterprise and their money.
What they have already paid will be lost
if they hesitate now. Timely and ener
getic action will secure the success of their
undertaking.
A Newspaper Office Enjoined.—On
yesterday morning a bill m equity was filed
in the Superior Court of Richmond county
by Rufus B. Bullock, Foster Blodgett,
Benjamin Conley, John E. Bryant, Ellery
M. Brayton etal. against the Press newspa
per, and an injunction obtained which
prevents the proprietor from using type,
presses or machinery—thus causing a sus
pension of that paper. The plaintiffs, we
believe, were all stockholders in the Na
tional Republican publishing company,
which was killed by the December munici
pal succeeded by the Press
newspaper.
South Carolina Railroad.—Judge
Gibson granted an injunction, yesterday,
against the South Carolina Railroad at the
instance of the City Council of Augusta,
restraining the railroad from discriminat
ifg inC its freights and passenger fares
against Augusta, and preventing them
from running their passenger and freight
cars through the streets of the city to the
common, or Union Depot, under a penalty
of two hundred thousand dollars. The
following is a copy of the injunction filed
in the Clerk’s Office yesterday evening:
Ax Chamber, May 15,1869.
After carefully examining this bill, the
writ of subpoona is ordered to issue as prayed
for; also tho writ ofinjanction restraining
said South Carolina Railroad Compa
ny from discriminating in their rates of
freight and fare for passengers as charged
in the bill, in the penal sum of one hundred
thousand dollars. Also, that the said, the
South Carolina Railroad Company be re
strained and enjoined, after twelve days
from this date, from running their loco
motives, engines and cars through the
streets of the city of Augusta, either by
themselves, their agents, employees, or any
other person or persons, except iu strict
conformity with the contracts hereto at
tached, iu the like sum of one hundred
thousand dollars; and also that the said,
the South Carolina Railroad Company be
restrained, after twelve days from this
date, from opening, usiog or keeping any
passenger depot or ticket office in the city
of Augusta, or from taking on their cars
or traios any passengers for the said road
except at the passenger and ticket office
designated by the contract hereto attached,

Centre, Reynolds and Washington streets)
under a less penalty of ten thousand dollars.’

Waynesboro, May 13, 1869.
Dear General: .The following is too good
to be lost. DeGraffenried, “under the in
structions of His Excellency,” sent to our
old friend, Simeon Wallace, late Ordinary
of this county, but recently elected J. P.
in his Qistrict, the interrogatories pro
prounded to all the newly elected magis
trates. The Squire answers him as fol
lows :
Lawtonvili.e, May 3, 1869.
To B. B DeGraffenried, Esq :
Sir : Yours of the 28th of April. 1869,
as you say under the instructions of His
Excellency, requiring me to furnish “this

thereto attached, has been received ; and,
in reply, permit me, through you, to ask
His Excellency the following questions,
to-wit:

I The Catholic Hierarchy.
PASTORAL LETTER OF ARCHBISHOP SPALD
' INO.
Archbishop Spalding, of the Catholic
Church, and the Suffragan Prelates of the
Baltimore Council, have issued a Pastoral
Letter, from which we make the following
extracts. On the subject of education the
Pastoral says:
Bitter experience convinces us daily
more and more that a purely secular edu
cation, to the exclusion of a religion trai
iog. i- not only an imperfect system, but is
attended with the most disastrous conse
quences to the individual and to society.
Among Catholics there caunot be two opin
ions about this subject, and we are happy
to see that this practical truth is beginning
to find acceptance also in the minds of re
flecting men among our separated breth
ren. While we are gratified at witnessing
so many intelligent persons throughout
the country embracing the true faith, we
are obliged to confess with sorrow that a
greater number are lost to -he Church.
There is no exaggeration in saying now
what Bishop England felt it his sacred duty
to state many years ago, that hundreds,
nay thousands, of souls annually s,ray
away from the ibid in this country on ac
count of their eany religious education If
wa look for the descendants of those
numerous Catholic families which Lave
emigrated to this country during the past
and present century, wo will find that
many of them have wandered away from
the faith of their fathers, and not a lew
of them are now ranked among the most
active and unrelenting enemies ol the
Church of God. The only way to arrest
this evil which we deplore, is to make
ample provision for the moral and religious
training of our youth.
The ciergy are exhorted to establish
parochial schools everywhere as soon as
practicable. Under the head of the “Mur
der of the Innocents,” the Bishop express
es the following strong language :
The abiding inters-t al l feel in the pres
ervation of the moral: of aur country con
strains us to raise our voice against the
daily increasing practice of infanticide,
especially before birth, ahe notoriety
which this monstrous crime ha-, obtained
of late, and the hecatombs of infants that
arc annually sacrificed to Moloch, to grati
fy an unlawful passion, are a sufficient
justification for our alluding to a painful
and delicate subject, which should not
even be mentioned among Christians. We
hixy observe that the crying sia of infanti
cide is most, prevalent in those localities
where the system of education without re
ligion hat been longest established, and
been most successfully cartied out. The
inhuman crime might be compared to the
murder of the “Innocents,” except that
thecriminals in this case exceed in enormi
ty the cruelty of Herod. If it is a sin to
takeaway the life of an enemy ; if the
crime of shedding innocent Mood cries to
Heaven for vengeance, in what language
can we characterize the double guilt of
those whose souls are stained with the in
nocent blood of their own unborn, unre
generate offspring? The murder of an in
fant before its birth is, in the sight of God
and ofhi3 Church, as great a crime as
would be the killing of a child afterbirth,
with thisaggravating circumstance, that in
the former case the unborn child dies de
prived of the essential grace of baptism.
No mother is allowed under any
circumstances, to permit the death
of her unborn infant, not even for
the sake of preserving her own life, because
the end never justifies the means; and we
must not do evil that good may come from
it. We confidently believpthat you,beloved
children in Christ,arc strangers totbisunna
tural vice. Our words, therefore, are lan
guage rather of warning than of reproof.
The dangerous amusements, prominent
among the evils we have to deplore, and
which is an evidence of the growing licen
tiousness of the times, may be reckoned a
morbid taste for indecent publications, and
the frequency of immoral or positively
obscene theatrical performances. No en
tertainments seem sufficient to satisfy the
last degenerating spirit of the age, unless
they be highly sensational and calculate,!!
to gratify the most prurient appetites. We
can hardly say who deserve a stronger con
demnation—the actors who pander to the
most vitiated tastes, or the audience who
encourage, by their presence, and applaud
these grossly indelicate exhibitions. Both
actors and spectators appear to vie with
each in their rapid march down the slip
pery path of sin. We deem it particular
ly our solemn duty to renew our warning
against tho modern fashionable dances,
commonly called ‘German, ’ or round dances,
which are becoming more and more the oc
casions of sins. These practices are st
much tho more dangerous, as most persons
seem to look upon them as harmless, and
indulge in them without any apparent
remorse of conscience. But divine revela
tion, the wisdom of antiquity, the light of
reason and of experience, all concur in
proclaiming that these kind of entertain
ments cannot be indulged in by any virtu
ous persons, unless they be more than
human, without detriment to their souls, or
even be present to take partin such amuse
ments, when the eye is dazzled by an array
of fascinating objects, where the senses are
captivated by enchanting music, and the
heart is swayed to and fro amid the sur
rounding gaiety and excitement.
Under the head of “Oar Colored
Brethern,” the prelates say ;
As the father of the 1 te plenary coun
cil thought it expedient that all measures
to be adopted for the religious improve
ment of the colored race should be ref er
red to the provisional councils, we deem it
our duty in the present instance to invito
your attention to this important subject.
Our colored brethern should have a large
share in the exercise of our zeal, particu
larly in those sections of the province
where they are more numerously congre
gated. Our Heavenly Father, whose be
nign providence watches over the humblest
of His creatures on earth, as well as over
the highest angels in Heaven, enjoins on
tho pastors of his Church the duty of
ministering with equal care to tlte lowly
and the great;. God forbid that we should
exercise less vigilance in laboring for the
salvation of those immortal souls whom
God created in his own image and like
ness, and for whom his only begotten Son
did not disdain to die. Tne Church, while
capful never unduly to disturb the os
tablished relations existing between the
different classes of society, makes no dis
tinction of persons in the distribution of
her heavenly gifts, and she honors alike
her devoted missionaries whether they
evangelize the white race like St, Francis
De Sales, or the Japanese like St. Francis
Xavier, or the negro slave of Carthagena
like blessed Peter Claver. 0, let us then,
like our glorious model, St. Dual, become j
weak to the weak) that we may gain the
weak , let us become rH things to all
men, that we may save; remembering
that like him, we are debtors to all—the
Greek and barbarian, to Jew and Gentile,
to bond and free. The colored people are
tractable, aud generally grateful for our
ministration. Their unsettled and abnor
mal condition, necessarily arjsjng from j
their sudden euianotpatibn, should the
more actively excite our sympathy. We
that are stronger ought to bear with the
infirmities of the weak. We, therefore,
desire that separate schools and churches
be established for the blacks wherever
they may he deemed practicable and expe- j
dient. \Yhcro special schools are not j
erected for them, every facility should bq i
afforded for their religious and moral train- !
ing as far as circumstances will permit.
The letter closes with congratulations to j
the Pupa, ana says the reign of Pius IX,
wno now happily eccupies the chair of St.
Peter, will be one of the most noted in the
annals of the Church, whether we consider
the long duration of his pontificate, the
momentous events which have occurred
during the trials and vicissitudes through
which ho Las passed, ar the sublime vir
i tues which have signalized his glorious
career. The pastoral is signed by the pre
| lates of the council representing the States
!of Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland,
| Virginia, West Virginia, North and South
Carolina, Georgia and Florida, ft is or-
I dered that the letter shall be read in ail
| the Churches of (he province the Sunday
i after its reception.
The Wheat Crop of Cherokee
The Xorth Georgia Citizen says that the
prospect of an abundant wheat harvest, in
all this section, was never more promising
at this season of the yesr. The number
of acres sown iot ; is and adjoining counties
is represented as much greater than for
several years past, and should there be no
backset this necessary article will be so
cheapened as to very materially lessen the
expense of living. We hear of rust in
some few wheat fields. It is said salt
water applied to wheat badly rusted wilj
effect a cure, which it would be well for
our farmers to try, should thi3 danger
threaten to cut it off.
In consequence of the acceptance of the
Harvard challenge by the Oxford boat
crew, a committee of the Harvard boating
men recently visited New Haven_ for the
purpose of conferring with the Y'aie men
on the subject sf their annual Univesity
race. The Harvards proposed a four-oared
race with Y'aie, crews to carry coxswains,
and the race to be pulled on the 4th of
July, the place to be settled by both par
ties, the race to take the ~laee of the us
ual University race. The Yale men express
ed their willingness to accept the proposi
tion. but the corporation would not allow
them to participate ju any race during term
time. The Harvard committee then pro
posed to get together a crcv of the men
next best to the four who shall be selected
for the English race, and with these men
to row the six oared race ai the time and
place named in the original challenge, and
this was ecoepted by the Y ale commodore.

commodate a population of twenty-five

every element of prosperity is exhibited in
her history for the past three yeais, and
yet New Orleans is going down. Not yet
