We have sometimes said that which may hurt
the feelings Of an Emperor or his scldiers,

We are as much an essential Institution OF

cisely what We were not only when Louis
Napoleon lodged in st. James's, but when
his uncle was a sub officer of artillery. We
are what We v sre before Mr.. Bright or Lord
John Russell Was born. The era which gave
France it's Revolution, gave England lite free
press. That press has preserved it's freedom
by acting up to itself, and speaking the truth,
to the best OF its ability and judgment, OF
everything and everybody. No one can over
estimate its weight as the auxiliary and

The London Times pays it's respects to
those who have been warning it Of the diff
culties into which it might be dragging the
English nation, by the freedom Of its COM
ments on the character and policy Of Louis
Napoleon. Referring TO the remarks in Par
Lament deprecating tho invectives Of the
newspapers upon the French Emperor, and
to the interference Of his agents in suppress
ing its circulation in France, it says:
sit is our vocation and our very being to
speak truly and freely about all public char
acters and affairs. If we cannot follow our
vocation we cease to be altogether. We are
free press, which il about as distinct a
thing from Continental journalism as q liv.

WASHINGTON, Aug. l6.-Letters from the
Constitutional Government just received here
allude with great satisfaction to the favor
with which the decree for the naturalization
of the Church property is everywhere receiv-
ed, even in the city Of Mexico, and especial
ly on the visit of Capt. Oldham, commander

WAsHiNGroS, Aug. l0.-The extensive Ma
chine Blacksmith and Saving Shops of the
Capital Extension Works were destroyed by
fire, which commenced about half past three
O'Clock this morning. The origin Of the fire
has not been ascertained, but is supposed to
have been accidental.
The buildings were comparatively of little
value, but the machinery contained in them
was very expensive, including the lathe for
turning the immense stone columns for the
Public Buildings. Powerful engines and
tools and large quantity OF costly marble,
finished and unfinished, has been DESTROYED.
The loss is variously estimated at from $780,
900 to 100000. There was no insurance
upon any portion.

In 1868, about the time of the treaty OF
Utrecht, which transferred the possession Of
the French in America to the British, there
was n missionary establishment at Cahokia,
st. Clair county, Illinois, which was colon.
lied branch Of the seminary - foreign :a:s.
sion ut Quebec. At the time, an agent OF the
mission, Monsieur Forget de verger, setting
without authority, and under the pretense
that the English would confscate the prop
erty, sold off the whole estate and effects OF
the missionaries at Cahokia, including large
number Of negro slaves. The missionaries
made strong efforts to recove. the property,
without success. They called upon the pa
rent society at Quebec to exert their infu-
ence with the British Government for the re-
capture and restoration OF the slaves. Ia
! 1889 tho seminary at Quebec made the fol-
lowing reply to this appeal, reply which
would have been given with still greater EN- :
phasis by any and all the early fathers, both
OF the church and our constitution. "As
for tho rest" say they, I'VE think that the
negroes formerly belonging to the mission
have their liberty by prescription, and We do
not in any way enter into your views to force
them into slavery. Providence has given
them their precious liberty, and God forbid
that We should consent to take it from them.
