Church Property Confscated.

Since the fact has been we'll settled that
Bishop O'Reilly, of Hartford was on board the
Pacific, and that he Is probably lost question
of much interest, concerning the property OF
the Roman Catholic Churches in Connecticut,
has arisen. The Legislature of that State At
its last session passed law, to the effect that
every devise or conveyance of church property
should be vested in religious corporation,
formed by the church members, under certain
restrictions; and, in case such property Is held
by an individual, and there be no such corpo-
rate body then the title shall vest in the State
of Connecticut. The Catholic Church property
in Hartford, and probably in other sections of
the State, is said to stand in the name of Bishop
OReilly; and, as no corporate body has been
formed, as required by law, the whole of it will
be vested in the State. The law, however, pro-
vides that the State Treasurer shall deed said
propert,- to corporation of congregation,
when it shall be formed IN accordance with the
laws of Connecticut.

Manchu Tartar families, the male members of
which constitute the regular soldiers of the
Emperor. Their lands are cultivated by per-
sons held in perpetual servitude. But as the
number of Tartars prevented from cultivating
their own land, by military duties, amounts to
little more than 100000, the number of their
slaves is small, compared with the whole popu.
lation of China.
A writer in the Chinese Repository, long a
resident of China, and familiar with the Ian
guage, says: ave have made many inquiries
as to the number Of slaves in Canton, the classes
of society from which they mostly come, and the
prices usually paid for them, but have not been
able to learn much worthy of credence. Accord
ing to all our informants, the number of females
greatly exceeds that Of males the former are
generally purchased between the ages of five
and fifteen. More men slaves are found in the
establishments of opulent landlords and Gov.
eminent officers, than among traders and citi
zens." X.

alton are as curious as they are various.
Some were for "failure of heirs" Sikkim

was insulted. Pegu was conquered from its
native possessors. Nagpore, consisting of
$4,000 square miles, was annexed for failure
of heirs. The nett revenue of India, last year,

1t is said that during the sitting of the Peace
Congress in Paris, there was greater trouble in
pleasing the Plenipotentiaries at the social
fetes given, than in arriving at satisfactory
terms for peace. An Ambassador claims a
higher seat than a Minister, for he represents
Monarch-the Minister represents Popular
Government. So, at a dinner party, the digni-
taries, In several instances quarrelled with the
disposition which was made with them at table
| am led to this remark by the case of General
! Williams, who commanded Kars. He was
sent out by the War Office, mainly to oversee
the Turkish arms, and Lord Stratford, at Con
stantinople, felt hurt, and, indeed, utterly re
| fused to hold the requisite communications
with him. So the General lost his influence
at Constantinople. This whole question oil
diplomacy and diplomatic agents needs reform
ing, and it promises, here at least, soon to have
a thorough examination.
AS close this letter, we hear from Vienna
that one of the most important conditions in
the treaty of peace is, that the forts on the
Circassian coast Of the Black Sea are not tc

Black Sea is to be maintained.
Last night, the Lord Mayor gave sumptu

speeches made, that there is any danger of
war between England and America.

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.
Friends, Yearly MeatinR.


The orthodox branch of the Society of Friends
are now holding their annual meeting at their
meeting house, Fourth and Arch streets. This
meeting, to which none but Friends are admit
ted, we understand is likely to be a stormy one,
in consequence of difference of opinion on
the tendency of the views of Joseph Quincy
difference which has occasioned schism in
two of the yearly meetings Of the Society, viz
that of New England and Ohio.
The origin of the difficulty occurred some
twelve years since, in consequence of the Soci-
ETY. in New England expelling John Wilbur
and several others, on the ground Of slanderous
defamation of the character of Quincy. The
expelled Friends established yearly meeting.
and addressed epistles to the various bodies Of
their denomination in this country and in Eng
land. A number of the Societies took no notice
of the subject, and therefore refused to recog
Mise the new Society; but the Society here
showed disposition to call in question the act
of the New England Friends in expelling VIII
bur and associates, but this was resisted by
many of the Friends.
No other yearly meeting except the one in
Philadelphia has acknowledged the Wilburite
body as a yearly meeting If separation or
division takes place in the meeting here, the
property at Fourth and Arch would doubtless
go to the anti-WilbUrs, as the will Of William
Penn gives to the Society the ground, under a
deed which conveys it to them for the use and
benefit of the Society of Friends in unity with
the London yearly meeting, the Wilburite body
not having been acknowledged either in Eng
land or Ireland.
The sessions so far have been quite spirited,
in consequence of propositions having been
made in favor of a division in the Society, and
| the organization OF new yearly meeting.
| llpistles have been received from New York,
North Carolina, and Indiana, informing the
yearly meeting that unless it was prepared to
retrace Its steps, and conform to the ancient or
der of the Society, they must decline further
espondence.-Phiia.L Ledger, Aprit %.
