most filthy and unhealthy places in the city, where
they have been lying for several days before
coming to the notice of the police; halfstarved and
dirty, covered with yermin, and many with prefer

have found most remarkably successful in the above
mentioned disease; quetng the nervous system, ex-

Layvless Doings in Kansas

ST.. LOUIS, Dec. -27-The Jefferson City Erami-
ner learns from reliable source that Fort Scott,
Kansas, on the night of the 18th was attacked by
the outlaw Montgomery, at the head of 200 men,
ana ana the town taken, ana some five or six persons
killed. The object of the attack was the release of
one of Montgomery's men, who was confined under
an indictment for murder. 1t is feared that the
town was entirely destroyed.
1t is reported that band of thieves and assassns
from Kansas entered Vernon county, Missouri, and
killed David Cruise, and stole lot of cattle and
horses. About the same time two parties under
Brown and Montgomery, entered Missouri on the
Little Usage river, and stole negro woman, took
VIM. Lame prisoner and carried him into the Ter
ritory, but released him the following day. An
express has been sent to the Governor of Missouri
for assistance to protect life and property.

The st. Augustine's (Fla.) Examiner, of the 18th
inst, speaks very feelingly in the annexed para
graph, in relation to necessaries in that town:
As we going to press there are two vessels off
the bar, whether bound to our port or not we are
unable to say. We hope, however, that either they
or others from some lard of plenty ioW come and
force bOders of the necessares of life to something
below starvation rates. What can the poor man
live on when he must pay nine dollars barrel for
flour, two dollars and half bag for corn; or, if
he cannot raise money enough for a bag, at the
thropy claim upon the merchant? Must the poor
of our city pay hundred per cent. profit upon the
hominy they eat, or starve?
Perhaps if philanthrophy at home will do nothing
for us, enterprise from abroad will come to our re-
lief. Such state of things cannot last long. The
days of monopoly are numbered.

INSTALLATION OF THE CARDINAL ARCHBISHOP OF

Chapter of St. Denis:
'tThe Cardinal-Archbishop was received at the
cathedral door as Archbishop of Paris, with the
usual ceremonies; but as soon as he entered the
building his stole was taken off, and he afterward
knelt down before Monseigneur Sacconi, the Pope's
Nuncio and received the stole back again from his
hands. hear in many quarters that the clergy of
Paris is not very well pleased at the above Incl
dent in the ceremony. The Archbishop, being
Cardinal is ofa higher rank than the Popes Nuncio,
who is only an Archbishop IN partibus, and ought
not, therefore, according to herarchical rules to
have accepted investtre of the stole from other
hands than those of another Cardinal, deputed ad
hoe by his Holiness. But the leaders of the ultra
montane party were delighted to see the first Arch
bishop Of France, and Cardinal on his knees be-
fore simple Nuncio, who according to the c0ncor-
dat, and to established usage in France, is only
political ambassador, without hierarchical rank
This event, trivial it may appear to be- is in the

of Guadalaxara by Miramon, the Zuoaga chieftain,

is not conceded by independent men familiar with

lays Mata's reception, and also that, even if true,

The example of the democrat who, on Thanks

Sav M Of HavnE @ a M of to ta
ry, that unctonary declines to comply saying that
"were an epidemic to be raging in one of the coun-
ties of Kansas, it would be unfeeng for the re
mainder to be shouting hosannas and praises to the
Almighty, nothing being then appropriate except
fasting and prayer" 'So" continues Mr.. Walsh,
"since the notorious James Montgomery has recon-
menced his system of plunderng and marauding in
Linn county, encouraged by the support of lead
ing Republican press in the Territory, it would be
quite inappropriate and unfeeling my part to re-
commend Thanksgiving as you desire" and so on.
