IMPORTANT DECISION IN CONNECTICUT
In the case of Blakeslee VS.. O'Neil ct ais,
in the Superior Court, Judge Waldo award.
ed TO the plaintiff $50 damages. twas
an action against Roman Catholic priest
and others for interfering at the death bed
and performing Roman Catholic rites
against the wishes of the plaintiff, who be-.
longed to the Protestant Episcopal Church.
In the course of the case, the priest being
on the witness stand, was inquired of as to
the confession Of the dying woman. The
question was objected to on the ground that
it had no relevancy to the case, and on the
further ground that it was privileged com
munication and could not be disclosed -
Judge Waldo, after argument, in which re-
cent Virginia case was cited to sustain the
objection 10 the question, took the case into
consideration, and decided that confessions
TO priest were not by the law of Connect
lieut. privileged, and that the priest might be
compelled to disclose them on the witness
stand. He also decided that the question
sought for in this particular case had no rel.
evancy, and was therefore unimportant
but, he said, if he conceives il would have
the least bearing on the case, he should
compel the priest TO disclose it.-E. Hapen

WHITFIELD AND REEDER.-Greeley writes
from Washington as follows of these two
men:
THAT tall, youngish-looking, well-dress-
ed, strongly-made, rather prepossessing
man Of some FIVE and thirty years, is John
w. Whitfield, chosen Delegate for Kansas
by the Missourians who went over into that
Territory for the purpose, on the day of
election appointed by the Legislature they
chose in the same way last Spring. And
that frmly-knit, plainly-dressed, middle
sized, farmer look king, grave.mannered per-
son of fifty. with low crowned hat, and hair
and moustache beginning to wear the sill
yer tnge of lies Autumn, is Andrew II
Reeder, the Delegate chosen at an election
appointed by themselves by the Free State
settlers of Kansas, comprising more than
two-thirds of the actual residents Of that
Territory. Around these two personages
how much OF the interest OF the Session
necessarily concentrates, Hsw vitality
must the struggle of sc and the future char
acter and destiny of our country be inAu.
enced by their conflicting fortunes.''

VIRGINIA VoLusTEERs.-The motion in
the Virginia House Of Delegates to raise q
regiment OF volunteers and tender it to Mr..
Pierce for the purpose Of putting down the
disturbance in Kansas, has excited nothing
but the ridicule Of all sane-minded people
in the country. A few crazy persons south
of Mason and Dixon's line may have sym
pathized with the mover of the resolution,
but we app.ehend that the number Of even
such is small, and when the Legislative fire.

President responded to the hasty summons

ONE OF THE KANSAS HERoEs.-The
Louisville Courier throws the following light
on the antecedents and character Of Pat.
Laughlin, the Kansas hero;
"Laughlin is quite young man, not, per-
haps, more than twenty-three years of age,
and formerly resided in Scott county, in this
State. He kept a small grocery store on
the Georgetown and Frankfort Turnpike,
and having, about one year since, accumu-
lated, borrowed and collected all the cash
possible, departed for unknown regions.
He left his family and friends large in
debtedness TO pay, and by other remembran.
ces OF that sort, caused his memory to be
not particularly blessed by the people
among hom he formerly lived"
