New Application Of India -Rubber.--In Fran,e
the time and material expended In packing wine
bottles are of immense value. A great saving
on this has been effected by the use OF india
rubber rings, which, placed round the bottles,
prevent all jar, and by keeping them apart,
render breakage impossible. When the bottles
are unpacked, the rings are put aside for subse-
Quent use.

From tie Baltimore Catholic Mirror.

FOhNihs
From the Baltimore Catholic Mirror.
As our readers are aware, the prelates lately
assembled in council sent cordial greeting to
his Holiness through the Atlantic telegraph.
The wording of the telegram was as follows. 1t
left Baltimore ON the 9th OF october, and reached
Rome the same afternoon, in about fifteen
minutes, making allowance for difference of
time:-
Seven Archbi,hops and forty Bishops, met in
council, unanimously salute your Holiness,
wishing you long life. with the preservation of
all the ancient and sacred rights of the Holy
See.r
This despatch carried JOY and consolation to
the afflicted heart of the PontiH, as appears
from the following letter, addressed, by his
direction, to our Most Rev. Archbishop by Cardi-
nal Barnabo, dated October 24;--
1.-THE telegram which the Bishops Of the States
of the American Union, assembled in council,
had the happy thought TO address TO the Holy
Father, proved to be of great comfort and con-
ISOLATION TO his Holiness; and so highly did he
appreciate its spirit, that he ordered II to be
Immediately published in the Official Journal of
Rome, for the ediication of his Roman people
and Of the faithful at large.
His Holiness looks with interest for the acts
and DEGREES OF the Plenary Council, which he
expects to receive in due time, and from which
he hopes new impulse and continued increase
to religion in the United States will result. He
has, however, directed me TO express directly to
your amplitude, and through you TO all your
colleagues, his great pleasure, and to request
you to thank them for the interest they have
taken and still take in defending the Holy See,
and in vindicating its contested rights More
over, his Holiness has learned with satisfaction
that the Papal loan is succeeding, also, through
the cooperation of the American Eplscopate.
He thanks them particularly for this, and
nourishes the hope that such cooperation will
not cease, aud that thence prosperous result
may be obi aimed. In the meantime pray the
Lord that He may preserve aud prosper you.
Rome, from the Propaganda, oath Oct, 1866.

MONTREAL, December THE Grand Jury did
not approve of the language used by Judge
johnson yesterday when he refused to hold

ment They think he at least might have used
mere respectful language and have referred the
matter to the Attorney General for Canada East.
The authorities are trying to make the people
believe that the Fenian prisoners want to burn
the Sweelsburg jail. 1t is not so; for every one
feels sure of being acquitted, and is ready and
anxious to stand his trial. 1t is stated on good
convicted, preparations will be at once made
that will result in their release before the day of
execution. All of the militia at Montreal and
adjacent country are under arms drilling, and
are ready for service at few hours notice.
1t is stated that the petit jurors will not render
a verdict OF guilty in any OF these cases, for fear
it will lead 10 complications that will result in
a war between the United States and Great
Britain. Already the provincial press are claim
ing that we have no right to press the Alabama
claims, and that our demands are couched in
dscourteous language.
The farmers in the Bedford district recently
attempted to remove the iron posts which mark
the boundary line, and put them down two
miles back in Canadian territory. Military
have been ordered 10 Bedford to to watch the
movements of the FenlaDs said to be congre-
eating at st. Adams.
Powers, one of the discharged Fenian pri-
soners, states that the prisoners we're confined in
dark cell on bread and water for twenty -four
hours in the Montreal jail because they refused
to contradict the despatch stating that the pri-
soners were confined in dark cells.
