lunatic asylum, was presented to His Holiness,
the Pope who knew the object of my travels
The Pope asked me, in the most friendly man

Rome. had the courage to answer, Yes,

THE PoPE's BULL.-The word BuIia, or Bull
appears for considerable time to have meant
only gold trinket-ring worn round the necks of
children. Later, however, the 5ulta was synon-
ymous with annulus, ring and the words
bullare and sigitlare meant the same thing-to
seal. The pontifcal Bulie, or bulls, like every
thing else connected with the Pope's perqui-
stes-as his rings, his crowns, his keys-were
three in number: the annult, consisting, impri-
mis-, of that called piscatory, in virtue of which
he backs his pretensions to supremacy against
all the world of heretics secondly, the large
leaden seal, or bull proper; and, lastly, the sig
nun, for consistorial bulls. As soon as Pope
dies the Apostolic Chamber sends for the pom
tifcal plumber, who, in the presence of that
body, cuts off the portion of the double seal, or
Buiia, which bears the name of his defunct llo-
illness, thereby rendering the other and larger

CALIFORNIA INDIAN REsERvArIoSs.-Th 4has
Washington correspondent says: " The annual
report from the Indian Office will be made by
Gen. Denver, and its leading feature will be the
exposure of the present bad management of our
Indian matters on the Pacific coast, and more
particularly in California. The Government
here is exceedingly dissatisfied at the way in
which things have been managed on the Cali
fornia reservations. These reservations were
designed to be a sef-supporting system, and SO
they were in their beginning but now they
have become vast eleemosynary establishments
for the support of pets and paupers. Even
hunters, herdsmen fishermen and guides are
employed for the Indians, and every imaginable
expense incurred which could tend to swell the
expense or degrade the service. Such being the
state ofthe case, Secretary Thompson will go to
the other extreme and apply the knife rather
deeply for the good of the service. The reser-
vations will not be Immediately abandoned, but
very large proportion of the employees will be
turned adrift.'

The Times Panama correspondent sends
the substance OF Secretary CaSS' letter TO
the President of Nicaragua. The Secretary
says TO President Martinez:
"You have inSuted this government BY
withholding the treaty after pledging yourself
TO Gen. Lamas that you sent il by special
messenger You afterwards assigned us rea-
sons for not having sent it, that you had
written an autograph letter TO President
Buchanan, asking him TO submit to certain
notifications, which letter you never wrote.
We demand, as the only reparation you can
make, the return of the treaty ratified by
the assembly, with regard TO the vested
rights of American citizens in Nicaragua"
Gen. Cass tells Martinez that bis govern
ment would not submit to any arbitrary ac-
ton that us the country was devoid Of ad-
equate tribunals, the cabinet at Washington
had no other resource but TO decide the mat
ter for themselves, and that therefore a
proper naval force had been dispatched to
both sides of the lsthmus.

Paraguay Difficulty.

WASHINGTON, July 2S-P. NJ.
The course to be pursued towards Para
quay, is now determined on, having occu-
pied much attention of the Administration,
it is reliably ascertained that from the isola-
ted position of Paraguay, and the difficulty
of access, it is capable of making vigorous
resistance to an outside force. Independ-
emily of few smaller vessels, mounting vl-
together an armament OF six or eight guns,
Lopez had tire: or four good steamers re-
centli constructed in England and at eligible
points on the river; a fort moaning 100
guns of different calibre; he has standing
army of $4,000 men, and has recently re-
ceived, from England, cargo of arms and
ammunition; and has in his employ, as en-
gineers and ordnance men, several French
officers.
The Administration will send feet
six or seven vessels, including the Harriet
Lane and Fulton. The former will be the
flag ship. Commander Page, who has been
selected for the command, has proceeded to
the North, in order to charter such addi-
tional steamers as may be adapted to the
expedition, although it is not supposed that
il will be necessary to fire single gum
Yet, in view of the defensive preparations
of Paraguay, it is determined that our force
shall be sufficiently formidable to meet all
possible contingencies.
A commissioner has not yet been Sc
lected.
There is authority for stating that no
such letter as that purporting TO have been
written by Cass to President Martinez on
the subject of the latters refusing to sign
the Cass-Yrissari treaty, was ever written.
Lord Napier had a long interview with
Cas-, to-day.

No business of any importance was WISH
BIZ on our wharf yesterday The Wood
ford, although she seemed to be pretty well
loaded when she landed, took on large lot
of freight Considerable tobacco is still on
our wharf waiting, perhaps, the next trip of
the Done, which is due to-day. The Louis
Vile and New Orleans packets have good
loads before they arrive at this point, and
consequently are not anxious for any more.
The weather continues hot and dry. \ cool
breeze famed, for short time, yesterday,
the fcvercd check, but only enough TO excite
regret ut the shortness of its stay.
The Aida left yesterday The Alvin
Adams went up with a first rate load.
The ST. Louis Republican reports all the
rivers above that point to be receding, as
well as the Mississippi at that place. The
weather, il says, is hot and business dull.
The Cincinnati Gazette SAYS the river at
that point is falling slowly, with only six
feet water on Rising Sun bar. There is
Scant FIVE feet water in the canal at Louis
Vile and scant three OH the falls. Above
Cincinnati the river is getting down TO 4,
very low stage. The la1oo river is report
ed to be rising at Greenwood at the rate Of
one inch an hour.
The steamer Antelope was raised a short
time after being on fire Ii was supposed
that man in the hold at the time of the ac-
cident was burned up. When the boat was
raised, his body was found, lying on his
face, about midships Of the hull. AS his
clothes were not burnt She must have died
from suifocation. Being under the influence
of whisky it is supposed he set fire TO the
hay or whisky stored in the hull.
The Done, if she succeeds in making good
time with her huge load will be up to-day.
She leaves at her regular time OH an en-
cursion trip. As she has been entirely re-
fitted of course an excursion will be fine.
The Brass Band is to GO along, making mel.
ody by the way, and everything necessary
for having a jovial time has been prepared
All that can run away from business OIL
work for short time, had better avail them
selves of this opportunity for relaxation al,
forded by the Done.
The Southerner will be down to-day
| Persons for the Mississippi will have good
chance TO test the Southerner's accommoda-
tions and we have no fears in warranting
that she will sustain her hitherto high repu-
tation.
