One Of the most Interesting and important
departments Of the Great Exposition to be
held at Pnris the coming year, win be the
Of Protestant Christian benevolent enter
prise. The very choicest part Of the grounds
devoted Ia the Eair hare been sci apart by
the French Emperor for this purpose, and it
vii furnish the grandest opportunity Protes-
;aut Christia nity has ever had for the display
Of its works and results. It certainly could
hardly have been expected that g Catholic
Emperor Of Catholic country would have
taken muck interest In such matter, but
huildirgs are 10 be erected and eFery poH-
sible facility afforded for the exposition Of
the results Of the moderu missionary and
charitable efforts Of Protestant Christians. 1t
is The intention OF the Emperor and thoec
concerned in the Exposition to have 1t per-
feet illustration of the life Of the world, and
permission was cheerful1y given to some
English Christians when they brcached the
matter Of having place assigned to Protest.
ant Missions. The Catholics had previously
obtained permission to make an exhibition
of the results Of their missions to Pagan na-
tions, bat when they learned that similar
liberty had been given to- the Protestants,
they retired from the work they had conf
menced and declined to come into contrast
with the Protestant world.
Partial preparations have already been
made to render this permission OF the Empe-
ror Of practical value to the canse of Protest

great principle, that hatred will not die aa

Pollard Fs not satisfied to hare "the lost

for his Willingness to have II renewed. He

trust the stricken public will bear with be-
coming resignation the afl'tctins intelligence
conveyed In tho announcement that Pollard
declines TO do what he never wss

not be worth noticing we're 1t not for the
fact that It Is pretty fair specimen Of the
trash with which the South Is flooded, and
with which the minds Of the people are
