GENERAL GRANT AND
DOCTRINE. THE MONROE
NEW YORK. Om- 6.
A Philadelphia despateh of the sth inst says :
It is established beyond a doubt that General
Grant recently declared in conversation that the
United States government will vindicate the Mon-
roe doctrine at an early day, and that Maximilian
must leave Mexico.
General Grant is represented to entertain the
opinion that the President and the authorities at
Washington hold this as a settled purpose,
and only await the meeting of Congress to take
open ground in the matter.
A Washington telegram of the same date, how-
ever, states positively that the government has
taken no recent action, nor is it believed any is
contemplated ineonsistent with the policy hereto-
fore declared, namely, maintenance of absolute
neutrality between the belligerents in Mexico.

PORTUGAL
APPEARANCE OF CHOLERA AT ELVAf3.
LISBON. Oct. U.

Official reports received from the different dis-
tricts of the kingdom announce that the sanitary
state of the country is generally satisfactory,
with the exception of the town of Elva;
where some cases of cholera morbus occurred
lately, baying been verified by the medical autho-
rities of the place. lmmedistey the government
became aware that cholera had invaded some pro-
vinces of Spain, all the necessary preventive mea-
sured were taken to avoid the communication
and development of the epidemic in Por-
tugal. The Council of Public Health for the
kingdom and all the proper authorities have been
fully instructed on this point, and are prepared as
far as possible to meet the terrible visitant should
it unhappily spread in the kingdom. Confined at
present to the town of Elyse, and not presenting a
violent character, it is not expected, considering the
lateness of the season, that it will extend beyond
ita present limits.
A ministerial order had been issued, dated
7th October, prohibiting the importation into Por-
tugal, either for consumption or deposit, of the
horns, hides, or any part of cattle coining from
England, Belgium, or Holland, during the con-
tinuance of the cattle plague in those countries, until
further orders by the government.

SALUTES IN WIIRTEMBERG.
STUTTGART, Oar. 15.
The following order of the day has just been
issued in this city to the Wurtemberg army :
1. It has been observed with displeasure that when his
Majesty enters the box in the Costa Theatre the °Mors
present de not rise ell together, but upon or side latet
than upon the other.
2. Mere are reminded that when the Queen esters the
royal box tiler the King. her Majesty is to be selated sepa-
rately.
3. It has been repeatedly observed with displeasure that
the guard' deliver the salutes prescribed by the regulations
too lets before their Majesties. The excuse that the sentry
before the guard-house delayed in turning out the guard
will be no looser accepted, bet the conissendeet of the
post will be wade personally responsible for the delivery of
the salute et the proper tiros.
4. As mietekes have occurred in the WSW to be Ore
I. hie Royal Mishear the Prince Frederick, attentio• is
directed to the fact that the salutes preeeribed for princes
and primmer of the royal hones in the direct line are to
be delivered Dot before Prism Frederick only, but whom-
ever his royal highs.ss pries the guard-hoses aceompeoled
by his royal highness's coasoet, Primer Wharfs*. To
avoid error, in car their royal highnesses shoeld drive past
the post together in a dosed carrage, the footman at the
lack will mate a sign to the sentrY b 1 ratting Memo.
b. The moms that • sedier has omitted the pressibed
salute from ignorance of the King's person will no longer
be admitted. All soldiers have to make themselves well
acquainted with hie Majesty's mem. For this purpose
exact photographs of his Majesty are to be obtained at the
regimental mat and hung up is the barrack rooms.
. The reuse that the prescribed salutes to their M•jas.
ties were omitted because, being in • alone carriage, they
were not recognised by the passers by, cannot be accepted,
Soldier' its advised. in case of doubt, to deliver the pre.
iscribed valuta before every closed court siniage.
When, in the reign of King William, his present
Majesty's father, • princes complained of irregula-
riticein the salutesof the poets, the King gave orders
that, to prevent such irregularities in future, that
princess was never to be saluted at all. The present
King appears to have adopted a different system.
liie Majesty clearly think' these is nothing like
sure.

THZ FREZMASONS AND THE POPE.

The freemasons of Lyons have jut published a
reply to the Pope's allegation against freemasonry.
It is addressed to the "Sovereign Pontiff of the
Chitholic, Apoctolie, and Roman religion."
We extract from it the following passages :
Boob is a faithful analysis of year allornMest el Sept. 26.
It omits nothing—not even the appeal to tee i-
ler win, and the not very Christian wish to see
u crushed foe the good of the church. Such an attack
would justify a virulent reply. Ours shall be calm

probity of our intoetions and our acts. Be good sough

freemasonry, of whisk you are doubtless ignamat, would
have replied for us. Its first article is literally es follows
" Freernesoary, as institution essortially pluisathreple,

gstion of truth, the study of universal morals, science sod
art, and the exercise of benevolence." Ile emend
is this "In the high position which it etewerbee,
freemasonry respects the religious faith and the
polities' opinions of sack of its members, but it formally
prohibits in its ammaliblim all alienation of religious or
foretal subjoote, hada. for its aim controversy se to dif-
forest religious or silk(® of the civil authority sad the
foe as to
different forms of government." Is it neeessery

ircpreecriptble right which has its nbeolate limi-
tation in the liberty of others. You call all
men brethren, sod we need not inform you that egad= is •
short-eighted kind of cleverness. A reciprocal affection
ought to unite roes ; they owe one smother mutual aid ; we
remind them that the rights of each have • Agoura aqui-

For as the end sever justifies the means. We reckon by
thoussade our adherute and' our lodges. If this sketch
of our doctrine is untrue It will all forth numerous daniale.
We await the remit. " Why," my the freemseona, in
cooolusion, " reproach us for holding our orsetlege with
closed doors, when you know the moment we shall poses
the liberty of sessonbling, like that which the churches
passes, oar doors will be opined saver to be closed spin."
