Ey The French Government is not
disposed to let its prohibition OF the pub
lication of the Pope's Encyclcal remain a
dead letter. The bishop of Moulons read
the whole letter in his cathedral on the
sth Of January, and accordingly the Mon
iteur announces, illegal proceedings have
been commenced" against him for ian
excess of his functions Such step as
this seems likely to bring to speedy test
the new relations in which the Pope has
placed himself, with respect to the Catho-
lie powers.
Writing from Naples, the correspond
ent of the London Times says:
Every hour demonstrates the i'm
mense error which the Holy See has CON-
mitted Here there is scarcely true son
OF the Church who does not regret the
encyciical, and not a lover OF constitu.
tional liberty who does not resent it in
dignantly.",

marched with their armies. Religious

Those officers of their army who have
surpassed the rest of the infamous, III
infamy, have been rewarded with pro
motion by their government. Nor has
their government been alone in identI-
flying itself with these crimes. The peo-
pie of the North have never failed, when
the opportunity was presented, to render
oVations to the most transcendent among
criminals, while their. press has been
constant in its laudation, and their or
ators and preachers have cried out "well

have united to make the name of Yam

now the synonym of barbarism and
baseness.

bereaved mothers, widows, sisters, daugh-
ters and orphans in our land; by the
heart-brokenness of tramp'ed virtue
and by our desolated hearths, we are for
hidden to admit thought of further as

The New Albany Ledger says, the bor-
der counties of Kentucky from Louis
vile to Henderson, are literally swarm
ing with guerrillas. They are conscript-
ing and robbing the citizens, and doing
much mischief. StepheEspOrt and other
towns seem to be in their possession, and
they enter and depart from them at their
pleasure. 1t would be yell enough for
the Indiana Home Guard companies
along the border to hold themselves in
readiness for business at . moments no

guerrillas may make incursions into In
diana. As matters now stand, the Ken
lucky border is in the complete posses
sion o! these guerrilla banda.
