abeyance 1t is then, no matter of surprise that a
letter sent to the young officer should never have
found its destination in India during this time

\ Defence THE CRow.-fhe crow, in many
parts of the world, is considered marauder the
farm, and the gun is perseveringly used for his
termination. The most able writers ornithologv
and others who have studied his habits, agree that
instead of being robber and a pest to the farmer
he is of the most faithful friends and greatest
benefactors He consumes in the of the year
vast quantities of grubs, worms and noxious YER
min; he is valuable scavenger, and clears the
land of offensive masses Of decaying animal sub
stances; he hunts the grass fields. and pulls out and
devours the underground caterpiars, wherever he
perceives the sign OF their operations evinced by
the wilted stalks; he destroys mice, young rats,
lizards and serpents lastly, he is volunteer sem
tine about the tarm, and drives the hawk from its
enclosures, thus preventing greater mischief than
that OF which he is himself guilty. It is chiefly
during seed time and harvest that the depredations
of the crow are committed; during the remainder
of the year we witness only his services and so
highly are those services appreciated by those who
have written of birds, that cannot name an or
nthoogist who does not plead in his behaf.-hew

NoS-INTERCoURsR WITH THE NoRTH.-Under the
heading of "Non-Intercourse with the North" the
Richmond Wing, of Thursday, publishes an edito-
rial, from which the following is an extract:
''We cordially approve the idea of the formation
of voluntary associations throughout Virginia and
the South, bound together by common pledge
among themselves neither to eat, drink wear, buy,
nor use any article whatsoever manufactured at or
imported from the North. Our fathers in the re-
volution made and carried out a similar pledge in
regard to importatons from the mother country,
and thus evinced patriotic selfdenial which has
no parallel in history. We of the South must imi-
tate their glorious example if we would not be
longer tributary to those who fast getting to
be our worst enemies"

The Par Steele replies follows to an assertion
made by one of the journals which always defend
the Pope no matter in what coniuncture:
"We have asserted that in his proclamations and
in his speeches the Emperor has constantly man
ifested his respect and Difference for the Papacy;
but that he has never guaranteed the terrt, ry of
the Pontiica States. TO this assertion of ours the
Aai de Ia Religion opposes the proclamation of the
Sd May: 'We are not going to Italy to foment dis
order, weaken the power of the Holy Father,
whom we restored tn his throne 1t must be ad-
mitted that a rather free system of Interpretation
is necessary to find any guaranty of territory in
these words. There can be no doubt that the
French policy, which went to combat Austrian in
fluence, had no design to overturn the throne ofthe
Holy Father, or deprive him of any portion of his
States but must we necessarily come to the concu-
sion that France guarantees to the Pope all his ter
ritory, even against those of his subjects who have
shaken off the yoke? To do so, would be giving
the words meaning which they never had, and to
do would be an insult to common sense and plain
dealing"
