O. The Creole takes an extract
from the Comet, and gives our neigh.
Dor of the Gazette credit for it. The
article was suggested by an editorial in
the Southern Journal, which com
menced by asking the question GLOW
does the Catholic Church stand, in
reference to the acquisition of Cuba. ="
We asked to know "how the Catholic
church could possibly te logged in as
party to this quarrel ?" As we expec
to be lampooned in the Journal for
this, we are obliged to the Creole for
calling in our good looking neighbor
to stand between US. We can assure
the Southern Journal that orr ancient
contemporary has during the last half
past century given expression to the
same sentiment-iaeuticaI. If the
Journal is not disposed to take our
