70 the Editor Of the Davenport Democrat j:
In last evenings issue Of your paper IN
article appeared in your local columns, stat.
ing that the Pope's letter was to come in
contact with the Fenian Brotherhood Of this
city BY the Catholic Church Of this city.
Permit me to state that such is not the case.
The Pope's letter has only reference only to
such secret societies IS is condemned by
the Church, and a. the Fcnian Brotherhood
is not secret society; but open to Ill per-
sons who wishe to avail themselves Of it,
and never was condemned by the Church,
therefore the letter can have no reference to
them whatever, which you will see by the
paragraph from the letter itself.
"And that the Apostolic Consti-
tuition condemning the secret societies.
whether these exact, or do not exact an oath
Of secresy and branding with anathema
their secretaries and Promoters have no force
in those regions Of the world where those
associations are tolerated by the civil Gov
ernment.'
Besides this is rescript from the holy
father, and received by Bishop Lynch, OF
Toronto, Canada, and contains these words:
Mon s,snt inquistandi Feniane";; and pub
lished in all the papers Of the United States,
which words translated into English, read
1.-THE Fenians must not be inquieted." You
will see BY this rescript that the holy father
is not such friend to England Is some
others are. / remain yours truly,
A LIVE FENIAN.

CouRr HOUSE FuS.-Case State Of Iowa
vs.. 'Flesh Brokers' came on to be heard.
Action on forfeited recognisance, Or bail
bond. Facts disclosed, were that three
criminals were boarding at the "Ackley
House. for want Of 500 bail each Flesh
Brokers wanted them IS substitutes, board
ers agreed to 60; Brokers gave bonds, let
the criminals out, and put them in ~ SUBJ
stitutes.
About month after the enlistment, the
gay soldier boys, torned bounty Jumpers
and left Uncle Sans service.
The Attorney for the Defendants in this
case fled the usual affidavit claiming that
the criminals were in the actual service Of
the United States, and claimed continuance
under the statute providing that parties in
the service of the United States should have
continuance Of any action against them in
the courts cf this State. Lyman knew that
the brokers who signed the recognisauce
had the money in their pocket, recsived
from the sale Of these three criminals, and
b. determined to make them disgorss, and
in answer to the affidavit he ''solemnly
ross'' and produced the positive evidence
from the Provost Marshal that oil three ol
those criminal substitutes deserted the next
month after their enlistment.
This brought down the house, and Meth.
ct the Sheriff OF Court could stop the hearty
loud laugh that followed.

SIGHTS AND SOUNDS IN RICHMOND.
Mr.. ED1ToR:-The point of observation
with every loyal citizen, while in Rich
mond now, is, the spirit of the times,
manifested by our ''erring sisters of the
late confederacy, since they have "laid
down the broomstick."
One of the laws of Virginia, before the
Yankee INVASION" required that no ne
gro should be allowed at large, without
a pass" But after the Emancipation
Proclamation" and the city of Richmond
had fallen into the hands of our army,
and her streets guarded night and day by
United States cavalry plain people, and
colored folks, supposed the ''pass sys-
tenn" had passed away. But on a beau
tiful day last June, the common people
observed certain persons, we're very busy
and saucy, demanding a pass of colered
men. Of course, few were provided with
the old antideluvian parchment, and as a
penalty for such an %offense, were marched
off at once to the old city Jail. Those
who were reluctant to "fall in," were i'm
mediately put in front of a U. s. dragon,
with a drawn sword, and marched to the
headquarters" Like other lookers.on,
| walked down to the Jail, and looked in
upon a crowd Of terrified darkies, sweat
ing and painting with fear. Outside,
frightened women were running too and
fro exclaiming, 20, my God, its just as
bad as twas before" Some knowing (O
ones enlightened the crowd by saying:
1--WE told you SO /; when the id Yam
kee Government got hold of you, you'd
be worse off than before" This reign
of terror" lasted for three days, when the
''waters assuaged."
So monstrous a surprise, led to a search
for the reasons why, these things were
so?
The reasons were soon found. First
and foremost, it was deemed necessary
by the wise ones, that the city should be
cleared Of so many idle niggers." "Color-
ed l~aziness is a crime" white laziness"
is not SO much 50. Every negro without
a pass was confscated, to those who had
taken the job Of clearing out the vermin.
They were then jailed, to be let out to
farmers, at $5 per month, and found"
The next question was. who authorized
this scheme for providing for the idle and
homeless TO the surprise Of the unini-
tiated, it was found, that these arrests
were made by orders from secession rebels
formerly old slave whippers, and driv.
ers, acting under "city authority" Who
is Mayor? Ex-Mayor, Mayo /, the rebel

but did not believe it. He believed in the
assassination Of Lincoln, for he expect

FRuIr.-A. Latham, from Randolph, is
now stopping in this county for a few
days, soliciting orders for dwarf trees and
grape vines. The use of dwarf trees for
growing fruit is no longer an experiment,
but an established fact. These trees are
especially adapted to this locality on ac-
count OF their hardness, We have four
of these trees growing in our own garden,
one of which is a pear-and they arc
doing finely, and promise to bear next sea-
son, though they were set out only last
spring. We advise all fruit growers and
all who would be fruit growers to try
these trees.

MORE TROUBLE WITH THE INDIANS IN
IDAOO.
A Two.DAYs' FIGHT-AND NO PROSPECT OF
PEACE.

A Two.DAYs' FIGHT-AND NO PROSPECT OF
A Fort Larimie dispatch says that 1000
Chevennes, Sioux, A~rrapahoe, Blackfeet,
and a few Comanches attacked the Platte
Bridge station on the telegraph road, Tues.
day. The garrison numbered less than
$50, and the fight lasted two days, and
resulted in heavy loss to the Indians. The
loss on our side was 1t. Collins and one
enlisted man Of the 18th O. cavalry Kill
led, and 81 neil wounded. The Indians
retrea.ed west, tearing down telegraph
poles and destroying the wires.
A note was picked up on the battle
field, written by a white prisoner recently
captured on the South Platte, which says
the Indians do not want peace but fight
ing for all time, that we had killed one
of their chiefs in a fight, and that they
are going to destroy the telegraph and
expect reiuforcements.
The body of 1t. Collins was horribly
mutilated. His hands and feet were cut
off, his throat cut, his heart torn out. he
was scalped and had over 100 arrows in
him. u s.I'I.
There seems to be not the slightest dis.
position on the part of the Indians for
peace, which can only be obtained by So.
verely Furnishing them. One Of the Pow
der river columns is now moving to ioip
the force from Platte Bridge which is fol-
lowing the Indians.
II is stated that all the troops intended
for tho Indian expedition would have been
in the field long ago, had not the contrac.
tors failed to deliver the supplies accord
ing the terms Of their previously made
contracts.
