THE FRENCH NOTE ON THE CECUMENIOAL

COUNCIL.

The Allgemeine Zcitung publishes an abstract of the
note sent by Count Daru to Rome on the (Ecumenical
Council. This note is a reply to Cardinal Antonelli's
despatch of the 19th ult., in which he says that the ques-
tions whicn are to be discussed at the Council in no way
affect the relations between the Church and the State in the
various European countries, and that their scope is purely
religious. Count Daru observes upon this that the rench
Government has no desire to interfere as regards the dis-
cussion of purely spiritual matters, and that the Emperor
had therefore made no use of his right to be represented
at the Council, although this right has always been pos-
sessed by the French Crown, and has not hitherto been
disputed in the case of any Catholic Power. Certain
questions, however, which touch upon political and civil
organisation, and on the relations between Church
and State, have been brought before the Council,
and the French Government is consequently entitled and
in duty bound to represent the disturbance which would
133 caused in the minds of its subjects by the acceptance
of principles which are opposed to the laws of the land.
France desires everything to be removed from the schema
de ecclesid which she fears would have grave con-
sequences for the legal and social order of the
European States, as several articles in it would involve
the entire subjection of civil society to the Church. Such
is unmistakably (continues the note) the object of the
schema de ecclesid ; for by declaring the infallibility of the
Church, it extends her province to all questions of politics
and science. It is evident that if such principles were put
in practice, Governments would have only so much power,
and civil society only so much liberty, as the Church
would choose to allow them. Nor is this all ; after all
political and religious power has been placed in the hands
of the Church, all the power of the Church is to be con
centrated in the hands of the Pope. Such principles, pro-
ceeds Count Darur are not accepted in any part of Europe,
and if the schema is passed, a general anathema will have
to be laid by the Pope on all the institutions and peoples
of Europe. We are told that, although the Church
promulgates truths, she does not require people to
practise them when by so doing they would place them-
selves in opposition to the law. But can it be believed
that people will be taught to-morrow in 40,000 parishes
that they may think one way and act another? The
French Government has too much respect for the Church
to admit the possibility of such a proceeding. What it
fears is that by the promulgation of these principles an
antagonism will spring up between the people and
the Church which must lead to terrible consequences,
for both. This must be the inevitable result if the eccle-
siastical authorities in every parish throughout the land
should condemn, in the name of the Pope, the principles
on which all modern legislation rests. The note concludes
by professing the most friendly sentiments on the part of
the French Government towards the Church, and express-
ing a hope that the considerations above pointed out will
induce the Council to withdraw all dogmas which may be
calculated to disturb the existing relatons between Church
and State.

DESOLATION AT FORT GEORGE.

A. melancholy description of the desolation at Fort
George is given by one of the Scotch journals. An
o-.Aer, it states, has just been received in Fort
George- by the Barrack Department to have ready
for shipment for Woolwich 'on an early day all the
surplus furniture, comprising metal coal-boxes,
soldiers' tables of the old pattern, fenders, &c.
Many of these articles; especially the coal-boxes,
were supplied to the garrisons for the use of the troops in
the reign of George 11., some time after the battle of
Culloden. Some few years ago Fort George possessed
many relics of many battle-fields—steel armour in com-
plete sets, helmets and shields of the most antiquated
discription, broadswords, old muskets, bullets, anti even
skulls, regimental and other colours ; in fact,
the place was a sort of repository for many
such things. Now, beyond a few heavy guns,
mortars, and shot, and a magazine well sup-
plied with powder, scarcely an article is left in the
place except the rifles of the Ross-shire Militia", at
present being trained there, and a few old muskets for
the use of the Pensioner force at their annual training.
Euerything else has been, or is about to be, re-
moved : even the articles 'of furniture supplied
for the use of the officers' mess-room, for which
a monthly charge of 15 per cent. on the value
was made, are not spared, but ordered. to be
removed with the other things to Woolwich.
Fort George will in all likelihood soon .become a
desolation, be forgotten, and become the habitation
of the-moles and the bats. Some twelve or fourteen years
ago it had its governor, garrison chaplain and surgeon,
barrack master, clerk ofi works, engineer, &c. ' • now none
of these officials are known there. Assuming that these
officials were not wanted and have been fairly pensioned,
we should not mind whether they lived at Fort George or
elsewhere ; but even rigid economy might have spared the
Culloden coal-boxes, which will probably cost more to
convey to Woolwich than they will be worth when they
arrive there.

Nature is informed that the Duke of Devonshire
will probably be the president of the Royal Commission
to inquire into the Present state of Science in, this
country.

London and Paris have doubled their population
since 1832; in Vienna the increase has been still greater ;
Liverpool has almost tripled hei population. But we
learn from Cosmos that Berlin surpasses the exampless we
have just cited, inasmuch as the ratio of the present
population to that of 1832 is as 3.2 to I.—Engineer.
THE AUSTRIAN MINISTRY.—The Austrian Minis-
try has determined on withdrawing the bill imposing a tax
on salaries, which was introduced by the preceding
Cabinet, but excited great dissatisfaction among the lower
classes both in Vienna and in the provinces. The disso-
lution of the Reichsrath, and of the provincial Diets,
which was considered doubtful, appears now to be decided
upon, and will be shortly announced.

RUSSIA AND T (MERL—The New .Free Press of
Vienna says that several communications have passed be-
tween Constantinople and St. Petersburg on the subject
of the Greek Patriarch's refusal to accept the reforms of
the Bulgarian Church. The Russian Government sup-
ports the Patriarch, but a despatch from Constantinople
says that the Porte has withdrawn the firman by which
he instituted Mgr. Hassou as Armenian Patriarch.

THE PLEBISCITE IN FRANCE.—The Presse states
that at the last Ministeriol Council at the Tuileries the
Emperor read the proclamation to the French people,
which will be posted throughout the communes on Sunday,
at the same time as the decree convoking the
electors to vote on the Bth of May. The
period allotted for public meetings is to begin
immediately, and will last eight days, from the 25th of
April to the 2nd of May, five days' reflection being
allowed to the electors. The Moniteur Universel says
that it is certain each elector will receive a printed
copy of the Emperor's proclamation.
DCCTOIt GISKRA.—Some Vienna journals have
declared that Herr Giskra, having resigned his position as
Minister, intends to resume his old place of leader of the
Opposition in the Reichsrath. On the other hand, it is
pointed out that Herr Giskra, as Privy Councillor, has
taken an oath of fidelity to the Emperor which would pre-
vent him from assuming the attidude described by the
Centralist press. At the formation of the Cabinet of which
Herr Giskra was" a member, the Emperor only accorded
the title of " Excellency " to him and his colleagues so
long as they should be in office. In order to secure the
services of Herr Giskra in the work of conciliating the
nationalities, the Emperor has now bestowed upon him
the definitive title of Excellency which belongs to the
rank of Privy Councillor.

TRAINING SH-trs.—Some encouraging facts were
noted at the quarterly meeting of the ,governors of the
Marine Society. The training on board the ship War-
sprite, had been very successful. Among 136 whose names
are mentioned there are no less than 124, whose conduct is
marked " very good." Many prizes have been gained for
progress, and one captain writes—" I have no hesitation
in saying that they are the best boys we get." Nine boys
had been apprenticed to shipowners at Swansea, and it
was hoped this new opening would continue available, as
the difficulty of procuring ships for the boys in the
Thames, except coasting vessels, was increasing.
A STRANGE AFFAIR NEAR BEItWICK-ON-TWEED.
—A young gentleman, named M. H. Gilbert, of London,
who has been staying at loittal;-left ins lodging on Wed-
nesday, and was seen during the afternoon wandering
about the banks near the sea. About ten o'clock he was
found by some fisherwomen lying on the shore in an in-
sensible condition. On Thursday morning it was found
that one of his legs was broken at the knee, and both of
them were much bruised. Both the jaws were broken,
the lower one in three places. He was alive on Thurs-
day night, but in a precarious state. No money was
found in his pockets, nor was there any evidence
to shew how the injuries had been caused. When
found, he was lying at the high water mark, and his
clothes were very wet. The place where he was found is
called Sandbed.

A FAITHFUL TIGER.—An amusing scene occurred
the other day at the citadel of Dover. The 102nd Regi-
ment have a very fine tiger just come to this country
with the regiment from India. He is very tame, and is
daily taken for a walk, and he also goes round the mess
table getting tit-bits. The other day his keeper got the
worse for drink, and made his way to the (1.,, fearing
detection. An officer, seeing that the man LI) —web and
the tiger sitting beside him, sent for the picket, who at
any other time can do what they please with the beast.
The moment they attempted to go near the keeper the
tiger growled, and very soon let them see they must keep
off. For two hours the tiger kept guard over his keeper,
who, on awakening, was surprised to see no one dared
come near his charge.
THE IRISH EXODUS.—The Cork Herald says:—
" Emigrants are flocking into Queenstown on an unprece-
dented scale, and it is expected that by this evening
(Wednesday) over 2,000 will have arrived for embarkation.
The flow of emigrants is contributed chiefly by the mid-
land and Connaught counties, Cork, Kerry and
Waterford being but poorly represented. The emigrants
embrace the cream of the agricultural population, being
nearly all young, and mostly unmarried. The pas-
sages of one half of them have been prepaid in America
but even the remainder, with the rather high rate of
wages which the services of good farm hands now com-
mand, find very little difficulty in providing the where-
withal to emigrate. The rate for a steerage passage is six
guineas."

THE FENIAN COLONEL WARREN'S CLAIM
AGAINST GREAT BRITAIN.—The Washington correspon-
dent of the New York Herald says :—General Banks is to
present to the House of Representatives a petition from
John Warren for damages against Great Britain to the
tune of half a million dollars, because he was arrested and
tried as a Fenian conspirator, contrary to the laws for
such cases made and provided. Mr. Warren, it will be
remembered, was arrested, tried, and convicted as a
British subject, although he proved himself to be a
naturalised American citizen. The charges against him
were based mainly upon words spoken and acts committed
in America, for which he contends he cannot be touched
in Great Britain. He declares he committed no overt art
in Great Britain or Ireland, and that if he had done so he
was entitled to trial by mixed jury. It is not known what
action will be taken in regard to the matter.
A RUNAWAY IN PURSUIT OF THE ROYAL CAR-
RIAGE. —On Monday last, soon after noon, as the Royal
carriage, containing the Queen and the Princess of Wales,
was being driven along the road near Osborne, three horses,
which were attached to a waggon standing opposite Mr.
Dashwood's, took fright, and started after the Royal
equipage at a rapid pace. The waggon belonged to Messrs.
Roach, millers, and a boy was standing by in charge of
it, but he lost all command over the horses, which dashed
along driverless. Finding himself thus pursued, the
Queen's coachman put his horses into a gallop, and instead
of risking the delay which turning in at the first lodge-
,

gate would necessitate, as the gate was closed, he drove
down a narrow road through Brock's Copse, still closely
followed by the waggon and horses with unslackened
speed. Fortunately the latter turned in at the second
lodge gate, where they were secured by Mr. Page, the
head keeper. Had they continued their mad career down
the steep and narrow "shoot" along which the Royal car-
riage was passing, the consequences might have been very
serious. It has been reported to us as a singular coinci-
dence that on an Easter Monday morning some years ago
a similar circumstance occurred In connection with
Messrs. Roach's waggon, but on that occasion there was,
unfortunately, loss of life, the man in charge of the wag-
gon being killed on the spot.—Hampshire Independent.
• •
WILLIAM ROLTPELL AT PORTLAND.—In giving a
description of convict life at Portland to which prison
the Prince of Wales has lately paid a visit, the Sherborne
Journal alludes to the life of the convict Roupell, for
merly M.P. for Lainbeth, who has been at Portland
during the last six years. Our contemporary says :
" Roupell seems to have looked skywards whenever he
had the chance, and proved himself so different to the
majority of prisoners, that he was trusted with the
position of hospital nurse. Here he was very attentive
to the poor wretches who came in. One young con-
vict was very ill, and there was every likelihood of
his dying. the doctors having very little hopes. To this
young fellow Roupell, as he did to the others, gave every
instruction, and directed him how to prepare for the great
change. But the ex-M.P. was practical in matters of this
life, and sat up with him night after night, bestowing
such attention upon his fellow prisoner that eventually
the latter recovered. On the sth instant an inquest was
held at the prison on a convict who had died of cancer of
the lung, and Roupell was called to give evidence, which
he did in such a decorous and intelligent manner as quite
won the compassion of the coroner and the jury. After the
witnesses had retired, and the verdict had been returned,
a conversation took place between the governor, the
coroner, and the jury. The governor said that if ever a
criminal had been reformed it was Roupell ; but unless a
special reprieve were granted he could not be liberated
until he had served twenty-one years at fewest." The
coroner and jury too seemed to be of oßi..!_i.ion that Roslll
raightmll released,

MONEY AND BUSINESS.

(From the Springfield Republican, April 8.)
For the first time in many weeks there is some activity
in the loan market at New York. On Saturday the bank
statement indicated a marked falling off in the greenback
averages, and this, with an unusual demand for money,
carried the rate of interest as high as 7 per cent. in some
instances. On Monday and Tuesday greenbacks were
scarce on the street and among the banks, and the latter
wore borrowing of each ether. Call loans, however, were
generally obtainable at 6 tp 7 per cent. There is no
ground, iu the state of business, for this sudden flurry, and
no dependence can be placed upon it as au indication of
legitimate monetary movements. Very little currency has
been sent out of New York,and the present scarcity is pro-
bably due to speculative manipulations. The dullness of
business and the heavy loanable reserves of the banks
render it very difficult to accomplish a successful "lock-
up" of currency at the present moment, and we can hardly
believe that any one will seriously attempt it. The
Funding Bill still rests with the Committee of Ways and
Means and awaits the return of Secretary Boutwell from
a brief business visit to his home in Groton. The indica-
tions are that the House will pass the bill, retaining the
bank clause, and Mr. Boutwell is confident that such will
be the result. The latest objection to the bill is that it
conflicts with the "Public Credit Act" of March 18, the
first bill signed by President Grant. This Act gives a
solemn pledge that "none of the interest-bearing obliga-
tions (of the Government) not already due shall be re-
deemed or paid before maturity unless at such time United
States notes shall be convertible into coin at the option of
the holder, or unless at such time bonds of the United
States bearing a lower rate of interest than the bond to be
redeemed can be sold at par in coin." The New York Times
says that under this bill greenbacks must come to par be-
fore the Government can ask the hanks to exchange 6 per
cents for 41- per cents. We do not so understand it. The
"or" in the bill substitutes another condition, namely, that
the bonds of low interest must be at par in gold before the
Government can compel the exchange. And as, by the
provisions of the Funding Bill itself, the two higher
classes of the new bonds cannot be "placed" at less than
par in coin, the two measures dovetail into each other ex-
actly. Looking at it from anothet point, the present Ten-
Forty Bonds (5 per cents) are nearly at par in coin ; with
the passage of the Funding Bill and the consequent fall in
gold, they would soon be quite at par, when the conditions
of the "Public Credit Act" would be entirefy fulfilled, as
6 per cent. bonds are the only ones it is proposed to call
in. Again, the Funding Bill should contain a clause re-
pealing previous inconsistent legislation. The purpose of
the law above quoted was to strengthen public credit.
Since every indication of the passing of the Funding Bill
has had a depressing effgpt upon gold, and has caused our
bonds to rise, there can surely be no objection, legal or
moral, to the repeal of the previous Act by its enactment.
If the Act of a year ago was a pledge to the creditor, the
bill of to-day is much more a pledge, and is so regarded,
else quotations lie. The creditor will not object to having
the good supplanted by the better•. Some journals have
lately renewed the clamour against Mr. Boutwell and his
bill, as beiiig responsible for the present dullness in busi-
ness. Forgetting the remote series of financial mistakes
which have resulted in the present state of affairs, they
charge the present disease upon the physician who is try-
ing to cure it. Business is dull, to be sure, but its only
hope of activity is in specie payments and financial sound-
ness—ends to be gained through the Funding Bill. Mr.
Boutwell and Congress, instead of being "rash," "incon-
siderate," "reckless," &c., have been altogether too slow.
Their courage at no time has been up to that of the sove-
reign people behind them, and so, to-day, business waits
for them to bring up the rear. The condition of the na-
tional banks of Chicago on March 24 was as follows:
Capital stock of the 14 banks, $5,920,000; surplus and
undivided profits, $2,554,615; deposits, $18,778,401; cir-
culation, $4,436,801; cash on hand, $5,493,203. These
are the banks which are whining about small profits, and
lobbying against the Funding Bill. Lately many national
bank officers have written to Washington that the banks
are in no danger of being injured by the bill. One autho
rity declares that he would be willing to " run " a bank
honestly, and pay a 10 per cent, dividend, based on bonds
as low as 4 per cent. Gold has been steady at New York
during the week, the quotations clustering about 112, gene-
rally a fraction below. Foreign exchange is abundant.
The exports from New York last week were not equal to
those of the week before, but the Southern ports con-
tinue to ship cotton freely. Oue of the principal sources
of exchange now, however, is the constant shipment of
railway bonds to Europe. The Times says that this move-
ment is much more extensive than the pu huh; are aware of
and embraces a great Nariety of securities, some of them
unknown to the New York market. These mortgages on
southern, western, and Pacific roads are pain for with
the bills of Germany and Holland and with large ship-
ments of rails from England and \Vales. European in-
vestors, with all their cau►iJn, are very gullible, and very
likely some of the paper now going abroad is n.. 4 of a cha-
racter to raise our credit. Mining Oorualissionar, 11. W.
Raymond, reports to Secretary Boutwell that the bu►lion
product of the country in 1869 was $63,500,000. Oi this
amount California produced 820,000,000, Nevada
$140;00,000, Montana $12,000,000, and Idaho 57,000,000,
the rest being dislllauted among. other territories. Go-
vernment bonds have not been so active as they were at
our last review, but have been very steady, advancing a
trifle. The Ten-Forties are 1 per cent. higher. The
Pacific Railroad Currency Sixes continue at or above par,
while the long Gold Sixes, p tyable in 1881, are 2 to 3 per
cant. above gold. The following table shows the amount
of the Five-Twenties of different issues, which bear

Southern State Bonds have been very quiet. Tenuessees
spurted up to 531 on Tuesday, but speculators apparently
tired of this Sort of small play.
Railway Stocks are also very dull, and good rascally
"operations" are so rare that the market is losing all in-
terest. North-western has advanced moderately, and St.
Paul common more noticeably. Hartford and Erie fluc-
tuates 2to 3 per cent., a wide margin on stock that is
never worth more than 4, and invites much gambling. The
Kansas Pacific, last year, made a net earning of $839,690,
over a. total expenditure of $1,386,108, and expects to meet
Denver by September. The earnings of St. Paul during
March were $377,000, $12,952 less than in March, 1869.
The gross earnings of the Union Pacific during February
were $500,000, and for March they are estimated ats7oo,ooo.
The Vermont Central earned $37,000 more in Dec., 1869,
than in the same month of 1868,and i n Jau.rnade another gain
of $32,00). The Norwich and Worcester earned $43,000
in February, a gain over the previous February of $2,140.
A Concord (N. 11.) dispatch says that the ring formed
there several months ago to get control of the stock of the
Concord Railroad, so as to dictate affairs at the annual
meeting in May, have so far succeeded as to claim that
they have already stock sufficient to do it. Several of the
savings banks in the State have made large loans, which
have been used in buying up the stock. Among the most
prominent of the ring are ex-Governor Smyth, George
Clough, John H. Pearson, and J. M. Johnson. .Tudge
Minot, president of the.road, refuses to enter in the market
in the competition for the stock. General besiness for
the past week has been of an average extent, and, with
the steadiness of gold, subject more to commercial and
less to financial influences. Cotton declined after a specu
lative advance, but has resumed firmness. Provisions
are more active, both pork and beef products, while
breadstuffs continue dull and irregular. Wool closes
firm and brisk after a dull week. Tobacco is a little
more active, with sales of Connecticut wrappers, crop
of 1868, for 45 to 50 c. The market for this aescriplon
is more unsettled than that of other vat ieties, as the
growers were paid high prices, and the present holders
hesitate to meet the views of buyers. Groceries are
steady, with some heavy failures, but no general appre-
hension of trouble, though dealers are cautious. ; 'ry goods
are more settled. There has been a reaction from the
extreme low prices induced by Stew art's bear movement.
The parties principally benefited were some country mer-
chants, who bought at $l5 to $25 per cent. less than their
neighbours will be able to do. The Financial Chronicle
thinks present prices of dry gods not too high. The New
York Times, in a review of the real estate market, says
that there will be a general reduction in rents at New
York after May 1. People who have hither...Gs submitted
to the high rents are now moving further up town, or on
to Long Island, or into other suburbs, where residences
are being built more freely than usual. Many Southern
families also, who have paid high rents, aro now moving
back to their old homes. The New Fork Bulletin says
many Western merchants are buying heavy goods in Bos-
ton because freights are cheaper than from New York.
For instance, the rate to New Albany, Indiana, is $1 25c
per 100 from Boston, and $1 75c from New York, while
other Western points are in equal proportion.

FRIDAY EVENING, April 8.
Business is slow, and failures are far from few. Among

the most recent we notice F. H. Abbott and Co., 13, State-
street, of this city ; E. A. Souder and Co., shipping mer-
chants, Philadelphia, and the dry goods firm of Howell,
Wood, and Read, of Memphis, together with many others.
Money on call is easy at six per cent., with exceptional
transactions at five and seven per cent. Discounts are
easily obtained at seven to eight per cent. for prime names,
and at eight to ten per cent. for No. 2. Gold is firm, owing
partly to a further advance in foreign exchange and partly
to a decline in Five-twenties in Loudon, and closes at
1121. The following are the quotations for specie :
