RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

Itseems that every religious person mnst be
struck by the argument for perfect liberty in
matters of faith which is afforded by the diverse
treatment which has been accorded in different
countries to the late "Encyclical Letter." or
Bull" addressed by Pope Plus * to all the
Archbishops and Bishops ofthe Roman Catholic
Church throughout the world.
That letter is in any view of the gravest i'm
portanee; to all who regard the Pope as the
visible Head of the only true Church, the "VicaI
of God on EARTH" 1t must be Of the very highest
and most pressing consequence Though
primarily addressed to the higher clergy, it set
forth long list Of opinions very generally held
on current topics of profound concern, and stig
matizes those opinions as founded in baleful
soul. destroying error. Ifthe &C Bull iscorrect-
that Is, if the Pope is an infalliblc authority IL
matters Of faith-then til incOnccivably import
ant that this rescript should be everywhere read
studied, pondsred, not merely by Bishops but
by all who can read at all, and read to those
who cannot peruse it themselves. -...
Yet that Bull is forbidden to be published il

countries mainly peopled by Roman

THE CELEBRATION.

The preparations for the celebration on Satur-
day, the Fourth of March, are pressed with
great yigor by the Committees, and patriotic
citizens of all parties evince a disposition to
join heartily in the scheme. Enough is already
done and promised to make the spectacle i'm.
pressive and magnificent. This city has seldom
witnessed such procession as will pass through
its streets on Saturday, nor has it ever been
called on to unite in demonstration more
wholly free from partisan character. II
is Union celebration, aud those who
rejoice in the promise Of salvation to the Union
which the Inauguration Of a President pledged
to uphold and preserve it holds out, viii share
in this festival. Those who don't want the
Union restored, or who would prefer to see Ii
dissolved rather than preserved by President
Lincoln, have full liberty to stay away from al
the ceremonies that will solemnize the day oil
his second Inauguration. Far from this joyous
scene be the Sowing faces and angry hearts OF
those who can see or desire no good 10 the
country which doc, not flow through party
channele.
Details of the arrangements will be
found described elsewhere. But brilliant
as the pageant will be, it is not as
spectacle we expect American citizens to look
on il or share i'll it. Let us recognize IN TINS
another opportunity to pledge our devotion 70
the cause of the Republic, hoping to be able to
look back to the day as the dawn Of an admins
tration that shalt speedily extend over the
whole country, restored, reunited, and forever
The splendid victories which are
to be commemorated will prove the best aSsiir'
ance of such future.

The participation of Brazil ON the one hand,
and of Paraguay on the other, in the ciyii con-
nict in Uruguay seems 10 lead TO war oi
much more than ordinary South American
dimensions. Brazil is by fat the most powerful
country of South America, while the re-
sources of Paraguay have hecn so skill
fully manared by DR.. FTaneia ana his
successors that she is Formidable enc
my. 1t is reported that tie President OF
Paraguay has at present sixty thousand
men under arms. The entire army Of Brazil,
on the war footing, amounts to only -, 30 men.
bat it has already been largely increased By
volunteers. On both sides il seems the people
strongly svmpathize with the policy pursued by
their Governments, but from financial point
of view Paraguay is much better prepared for
long war than Brazil; for the finances of the
latter country have long been in disordered
condition, while Paraguay l. free from any debt
and the woatllest OF the South American
States.
The war is already in active progress. a
severe struggle between Brszilians and Urn-
guayans has taken place at Paysanda, which
place the Brazilans, after suffering repeated
reverses, are SAID to have captured Oh the "a Of
January. The President of Paraguay, in the
meanwhile, has ordered some Of biz troops TO
march into the Western Provinces Of Brazil, the
conquest d which will be comparatively easy.
as they. border upon Paraguay and their COM
munication with Rio b. water caa be easily cut
off, while communication by land is extremely
| difficult on account of the immense distances.
As the object Of the struggle is much more
substantial than that Of most OF the South
American wars, being for the control of the
mouths of the river Uruguay, the war has
every prospect OF becoming protrac!ed and
desperate.

We have had occasion recently to look over
with care the report Of Judge Folger of our
State Senate upon the contested election case
of Low VS.. Niven, 1t embraces a clear and
comprehensive statement and review Of all the
facts bearing npon the questions raised, and
searching analysis Of the principles involved III
the case.
It's discussion of the legal questions involved
is full, and evinces great learning, and most
thorough knowledge Of the law bearing upon
the subject of scrutiny into the rights of those
exercising the elective franchise.
We think it would be difficult to find more
carefully prepared and satisfactory guide in such
investigations than Is presented in this report.
1t will hereafter he quoted as textbook and
high authority in similar cases.
The report is eminently distinguished for its
candor and impartality; and, if subject to any
criticism, it is that it may be regarded as partial
to the sitting member.
1t is apparent that Judge Folger, in consider
ing the ease, placed himself in the attitude OF
Judge. Invested himself of all partisan preju-
dices. and was actuated solely by the de-
sire of ascertaining the truth, and applying
thereto well settled principles Of law. In tna'
effort, he has been signally successful.

We give due credit to the present Congress TO
its defeat, thus far of the persistent and shame
less efforts of some fits members to increase
their own pay, and we trust that the vigilance
of such Of the members as has been exercised to
this end will not be caught slumbering in the
final homs of the session. Mr. Morrill, de-.
serves especial credit for defeating this raid
upon the Treasury, by his proviso to Mr..
Aliens amendment to the Appropriation
bill that the question Of an addition OF one
third to the present salaries Of Congressmen
should be submitted to their constituents. The
result was the defeat of Mr. Aliens amendment.
So when Mr.. Nelson proposed TO increase
the pay of members by all addition OF %
per cent, for which Mr.. Stevens proposed as
a substitute that mileage should here
after be 10 cents mile and $500 a
month while Congress is in session, Mr. Nor
rill moved a proviso that the increase SHAH not
take effect till 1870, and not then if IN the
meantime it be repealed This killed the
scheme, and the amendments were rejected.
The vote was close one--so close that
the minority may be encouraged to
try some other game, before the SESSION
closes, to thrust their arms, up TO the elbow
into an impoverished Treasury They can not
be too closely watched to avert this shame from
our national legislation.
