ANIMPoRTANT French PAMPHLET. .--Deutir,
the we'll known Partisan publisher OF pam
phiets, he's issued little brochure, which has
not yet been suspended by government and
from its intlammatory nature is, therefore,
generally believed to be under the imperial
sanction.
Inthis remarkable work the French bishops
are sOundly taken to task for their meddling
with politics; and, above all, for their sup
porting the temporal power Of the head Of the
Church, and warned that they had better
confine themselves to the strictly episcopal
matters if they wish to retain the small
amount of power that is still allowed them.
The writer points out with great power, and
an abundance Of quotations from Scripture,
perfectly out of place in political essay, that
the Pope has no need Of temporal power, and
victoriOusly shows that as regard to its con-
tributing to his independence in spiritual
point of view, the necessity Of foreign
military aid to keep it up renders it COM
pletely illusory. The temporal power,
properly so called, he says can not be said to
exist at present; the continuance of the
present state of things merely keeps Italy
out of her Capital, without adding title tC
the power of the Pontiff. He then proceed:
to warn the French episcopacy that they
must prepare themselves for a speedy with.
dIawal OF the French troops from Rome, and
to tell them that they had better, in the in
terests of the Church, remember that politics
are wholly beyond their cognizance and con.
troll. Its conclusion is taken up by violent
attack on the bishops, who are reminded thai
they have always been against the people
and that they have always had the people
against them, save in those distant ages wher
the Church was the champion of the op

FInhtinr Arninst Odds.


There was a time in our history when su.
perior numbers in an enemy never prevented
our fathers from assailing them; there was
resolute courage in fighting against odds for
which American soldiers and sailors were
once distinguished. We don't believe in
surrendering to a superior force without hav-
ing tried hard knocks first. History has
immortaized many battle plains where hun
dreds were conquerors of thousands, and the
Boston Advertiser recalls to mind that the
first great naval triumph in our annals was
a signal case of refusal to settle the question
of surrender by the result of any sum in addi-
ton or subtraction. When John Paul Jones
took the Bon Homme Richard into action,
that vessel was old, leaBy and rotten. She
mounted forty-eiRht guns, mainly twelve
and nine Founders, except six eighteens, two
of which burst at the first discharge. Her
crew was in mutinous condition, and num-
bered, all told, only two hundred and twenty
seven men.
With affairs in this wretched condition,
Jones promptly engaged the Serapis, new
and excellent fifty gun ship, mounting, with
the rest, twenty eighteen-pounders, and haY-
ing crew of three hundred and twenty men.
Alter fighting for an hour the two ships
fOuled, but Jones being asked from the Sc
r0piS whether he had struck, answered, 81
have not yet begun to fight" The battle
continued with the ships at close quarters;
Jones's companion ship, the Alliance under
circumstances which suggested malice quite
as much as mistake, poured two destructive
brosdsides into the Bon H0mme Richard In
the heat of the action one hundred prisoners
on board the Richard were let loose, great
part of her guns were disabled, she was on
fire in two places, and the water was gain
ing rapidly in her hold. Jones, however,
was not the man to surrender fort rifles. He
fought with three of bis quarter deck guns,
until at last the Serapis struck, and he was
glad to transfer to her his flag and men from
his Own ship, which then had seven feet OF
water in her hold, and soon after sunk.

FERNANDlNA,

Much has been said about proposed oc-
cupation of the port of this name. 1t is To-
Gated upon Amelia Island small island ly-
ing off the extreme northeastern coast Of
Florida. At the northern end of this island
the St. Msry's river, the dividing stream be.
tween Georgia and Florida, puts into the
ocean. The length of the River is about one
hundred miles, and there is thirteen feet of
water upon the bar at the mouth.
Right opposite to its mouth is the harbor
of Fernandina with, it is said, full twenty
four feet of water-the deepest water in any
Atlantic harbor south of the mouth of the
Chesapeake. Amelia Island is about eigh.
teen miles long, and is very fertile. The
town of Fernandina has but few inhabitants.
The principal advantages which would ac-
crue to the Government from its possession
would be a safe harbor for vessels of deep
draught; point of rendezvous for fleets in
tended to operate upon the extreme Southern
coast, and as a safe basis for operations
against Southern Georgia and Eastern
Florida
