EXPULSION OF THE JEsu1Ts FROM

the Jesnits, eighty in number, who are
established at Loyola, in the Basque
provinces, to proceed Immediately to
Majorca. They, however, refuse to
obey. If they resist, they will be ex-
pelled BY force, and all the ministers
will approve Of such a measure. The
reason of their expulsion is, that they
have made themselves the most active
agents in Chsrtist conspiracies.

tainly be al no little loss to know
what IL Is for. Is it to defend the
Ottoman Empire, from the North

jealous Of the autocracy Of the north,
had better turn their attention to the
defences Of Turkey--embrace the
Sultan and admit him into the Chris
tian family, and with tho system Of
poligamy Of the Latter Day Saints
make some new gratis on the fruitful

The Russian Empire, streatchiDg

uniting Asia with America, reaching
more than half round tho globe and
with a countless population Of highly
and semi-higbly civilized, barbarous
aud savage people, each fitted for their
several regions, and in which it is
impossible for others to live. This is
the dimensions Of the undertaking
now engaged in by France and Eng

have not appeared in our columns late
ly, for several obvious reasons. In
reference to the war question. we have
not said much because we do rot de.
size to commit ourselves until the
end Of the campaign then we may
be able to express learned opini O
on the result. Whether we are right
or not in the opinion we now enter
tain Of that great undertaking depends
solely on tho important question,
What party will be victorious. All
we have nov to say is. that the war so
far as it has progressed meets our en-
tire appreciation. As many have been
killed and wounded as could reasona-
bly, be expected in the short time-as
many have died Of frost, famine and
pestilence, as could he locked for by
the fondest anticipation. and the mat
ter is being conducted on the best
christian principles. We cannot and
will not commit ourselves just now in
reference to the Eastern Question, not
only on account of the three several
reasons already given, but because we
are SO oyerburJened with compliments
at home there arc 80 many kind
hearted fellows doing US the honor of
expressing themselves in reference to
our ability and merit as political
writer, that we are overpowered with
compliments. The last thing Of this
sort, is in the way Of u commuuica-
ton to that model newspaper in
Church street, the Daily Democrat
official paper for publishing the laws
of the U. States" 1t goes thus:
"Fr;end Advocate-As there is a
ccaseless din kept up in the columns

those patriotic, loving, and NOR
al-reforming sheets, are both in favor
of the election of DR.. Jehu Perkins
for the Legislature" &c, &c, more Of
the same kind, to gil balf column.
To all this, we may as well exclaim,
in default of any other poetic ex-
clamation at hand, Give me another

The writer calls us virtue loving"
This is slanderous. We know not
what is virtue, and it is unreasonable
to expect a man to love the thing he
does not know. The writer is evi-
dently rewarded for the virtue within
him, which declairs that there is no
virtue in us. 1t is very evident to us
that he is virtuously inclined, accord

DIR. HrrEs.--The Doctor came in

DR. HfNES.-lhe DOCtOf came IN
yesterday, unexpectedly. to pay Us =
short visit, prior to taking final
leave Of the hospitable shores Of Red !
Stick. During his sojourn the past
year. the Doc,. has not appeared much
in public, bnt devoted his leisure TO
study and reflection. Nor has bis pen
been idle; during the time, he has
composed an epic poem, the NJ. s. Of
which we have had our eye on, also a
moral story or SO, designed for the
columns Of some popular periodical !;
besides other papers on various sub
jects in verse and prose. We must
say for the Doctor, that his talent Is
good, and we hope now, he has gone
forth, to put it to good account.
Count Nesselrode. during his short
stay in Baton Rouge, found time to
call on the Doctor, in company with
one Of the State executive. The Doc
tor regrets that he could not speak to
the Count, at the time, owing to the
fact, that he had seen him under other
circumstances and could not meet him
rs a gentleman. The Doctor left here
yesterday to retrieve his los. fortunes

gar; add quart of Madeira wine and
half pound of clifton, cut into small
