THE PorE AND FRANcI5 osErH.-It is
stated, from Vienna, that the Pope has recon-
mended the monks in Austria to lend the En-
peroT a milion Of forms 10 help cary on the
war against Louis Napoleon. The Pope does
this out Of a deep sentiment OF gratitude 70 bis
beloved son Francis Joseph, who, alone n si
the sovereigBs in EuTope, hssTefused to reduce
or seize the possessions Of the clergy. This
sent linen. does honor 10 the heart Of Pic Mono
but, unfortunately, his gratitude places his be-
loved son Francis Joseph in the worst light
before the wsrld. It holds him up as the sup
porter Of those very ecclesiastical privileges
and Accommodations which al the rest Of man
kind detest. He proves that the present con-
test IN Europe is precisely The sane as the con-
niet now going on In Mexico eonaiet be-
tween the ideas Of the age and the privileges
Of tie priesthood. Both Francis Joseph and
Miramon are fighting a losing fight The IN
teIigsnce Of The world has long since sapped
the foundations Of ecclesiastical tyranny, and
its tine-worn bstllemenis must fall.

THE FoEEIGN NEws AND THE MAREErs.
The news from Europe TO the 18th inst, has
farorably affected The cotton market, and a:
New York on Friday holders were asking an
advance Of one half cent per pound. Bread
stufs and provisions, however, considerably
declined IN New York on Friday, but The Post,
Of Saturday evening, says:
On he corn exchange to-day breadstuff
were less depressed, and speculative hoid-rs
ceased 20 press their stocks on the market.
The decline IN -four from the highest point IS
$40 per Dbl. on most kinds, choice grades
being an exception. Wheat Is about twenty
FIVE cents below the high prices Of last week,
and is quite unsettled at tie close. Corn r.
also 5G6 cents lower, but is quite steady.
The recent excitement and rapid rise IN bread
stufs uredicated on ne foreign news was IN
gfest measure un~warranted, as prices on The
other side afforded no margin for shipment, bat
on tn contrary were lower than here. The
extreme prices have brought forward frecr
supplies. and we notice a marked increase In
the arrivals ar the different lake ports.
The excitement IN mess pork has been quite
equal 70 that in -four, and the advance equally
unreasonable, a. there Is no export demand for
the article. prime mess only being taken for
shipment 10 Europe. The former is in large
stock. and he late high prices have checked
fhe usual West India and provincial demand.
Beef, on the contrary, has a substantial basis
for im~urovemen', fot this Is in large demand
for the EElsh and French navies, AMI eoHse-
q7entlT prices have been web sustained, while
mess pork has fsllen back S1.75 per barrel
from he highest point Prime mess has i'm
proved unde- the brisk export inquiry sni ne
iight stock. The shipments Of BEEF 10 London
and liverpool for the week ending May 1911.
were 1900 barrels Lard having advanced

 Mrs. Tanti had no children of her own; bu proved perfect mother and grandmother to a very large circle of relatives, who, like herself and her esimable husband, hail from La Val letta, the capital of the island of Malta. The philanthropy of Mrs. Tan;i did not ex- tend to her relatives alone. Very many indi- gent persons have been the recipients of her kindness without even knowing who the bene- factor was
 She moved in the humble walks of life- She had no aspiration whatsoever to shine in the--sO-caled-high society; not for the want of means. but even one day only of her life was of more intrinsic value thap the whole fe- time of an entire generation of " fashionables." " Mrs. Tanti was only little over forty four years of age, and had been resident of Little Rock for nearly one- half of her lifetime. co. H.
