FENIAN FUNERAL IN CINCINNATI
POSITION OF THE CATHOLIC
CHURCH.

From the Cincinnati Commercially
The funeral of RICHARD SCULLY, an Ill
fated Cincinnati Fenian, who was mortally
wounded at the skirmish at Limestone
Ridge, took place yesterday afternoon, and
was very largely attended. The body was
conveyed from the residence of the parents
of the deceased, on Cutter street, near Court
TO Father BENDER'S new church, on Clark
street, lust below Mound, after an under
standing had been had between the priest
and those managing the funeral. The diff
Guilty was as TO making the funeral that of
" Fenian" instead of that of "private citi-
zen," and Father BENDER sternly refused
to admit to his church, on the occasion, anv
insignia of the Fenian Brotherhood.
As the discussion on this subject lasted
considerable length of time, the rumor that
the body would not be allowed within the
church became quite generally circulated
among the thousands assembled around, and
there were hints and wild rumors, altogether
groundless, of course, TO the effect that there
was likely to be a serious difficulty in the
matter. After considerable delay, however.
a committee obtained from Father RENDER
the assurance that his only objection was to
any display of flags or other insignia of the
order within the church, on which point he
was infeXible; as he stated it, it would be
q shame and scandal to allow the badges
within the church."
This being the understanding, the body
was conveyed, encased in handsome coffin,
to its proper place III the church, end Father
BENDER proceeded to administer the ser
vices for the dead, after which it was con-
veyed 10 the grave in consecrated ground.
Following the funeral procession, unarmed
Fenians, bearing their flags and headed by
band, made display through the streets.

KENTUCKY Politics.

To one whose duty requires him to in
form himself in regard to the current poll
tics of the day, Kentucky is a puzzling
problem. We take up the leading papers
and lay them down, disheartened at all We
understand, and discouraged at being able TO
understand so little of the muddle which
seems 70 exist there. We do not propose
either to interfere with OF try to clear up the
condition Of affairs, but TO expressive opinion
that our neighbors are in a bad way. We
may, as all who mix in family qUarrels do,
get raped for our pains for saying even this
much, but we give the sentiment Of out
siders generally, when we declare that the
war between parties and fragments Of par
ties now being carried on there, is regarded
as ridiculous as it is hurtful to the cultiya-
ton Of wise and enlarged patriotism: and
that the sooner the prominent public men
and journals of that State square themselves
off into two distinct parties the better. 1t
seems 10 be . miserable scramble for petty
offices, and a general political pipe-laying,
in which principle has no part, and if we
must say il, patriotism either. The Louis
vile Courier has a party-the Journal a
party--the men who don't agree with either
aparty, while the Democrat has no party, but
is sloshing around promiscuously, dissat-
isfed with all parties. How many other
factions there may be, we are unable to
say, but, 10 far as we can observe, none Of
them seem to profess a clean-cut creed, or at
least do not define clearly what
position they hold in regard to the pending
questions Of the day. Much is said about
the rebels and Radicals but "naught distinc-
lively" This is the very opportunity for
extremism Of one or another sort TO take the
advantage of and if our friends will listen
to a suggestion we will say thatlf they do not
compose their intestine wrangling about mi
nor aflairs-such as the consistency of indi-
vidaals during the past five years, and what
this, that or the other man said or did, they
stand in danger of losing their due influence
in the politics of the country, and will sink
to the level Of tenth rate power. We
know that this state Of things il greatly due
to the nearly equal division of her people in
1861, but unless they are like the family
whose name one Of their most celebrated
counties bears-the Bourbons-who never
learned rneyer forgot anything, or unless
they are all under the influence of liquid
for which the same county is noted, they
will turn their attention from the merely
local and distracting questions which now
engross them, and on broader plain range
themselves either under the banners of con-
servatism and the country. or radicalism
and its consequences.
That is the issue, and If Kent II cky
friends fail to see it much longer, they will
rue their folly after their great State has
been given over to the tender mercies Of some
party which is neither Gsa. flesh, or guide
red herring" but having the meanest quail
ties of all

JUDGE UxDERwOOD.s DECTsroS
IN Fiji

The following is Judge UNpERwoop's
decision in full, as laid before the President.
on the application of counsel for the release
Of JEFFERSON DAVIS on bail. 1t contains
some points not published. Judge UNDER
WOOD said:
! have considered the application made
by Mr.. SHEA, counsel, to admit JEFFERSON
DAVIS to bail. Under the circumstances.
the application might have been more pro-
perly made to me when recently holding
the Circuit Court at Richmond. But under
the law, It may doubtless be made, also, in
vacation, and l will briefly state my views
OF It, and my conclusions. In the States
which were lately in active rebellion, mill
tary jurisdiction is still exercised and mar
tial law enforced. The civil authorities.
State and Federal, have been required or
permitted to resume, partially, their respec-
tive functions, but the President, as COM
mander-in-chief, still controls their action
so far as he thinks such control necessary TO
pacihcatlon and restoration. In holding the
District and Circuit Courts of Virginia. |
have uniformly recognized this condition.
JEFFERSON DAVIS was arrested under
proclamation of the President, charging him
with completely in the assassination Of the
late President LINCOLN. He has been held
ever since, and is now held, as a military
prisoner. He is not, and never has been, in
the custody of the Marshal for the District
of Virginia, and is not therefore, within the
power of the Court. While this condition
remains, no proposition for bail can be pro-
perly entertained, and do not wish to indi-
cate any probable action under the circum-
stances"

AN IMPORTANT MOVEMENT.

The Louisville Courier of yesterday says:
A movement has been inaugurated, which,
we think, will be fully Endorsed by the Board
of Trade, to memorabilia Congress to make
an appropriation at its present session of one
million dollars to repair the levees along the
Mississippi river, from Yazoo river to New
Orleans. By prompt action, and the power
Of the Government to aid, that whole region,
the most fertile valley in the world, can in
another year contribute many millions to
the wealth of the country, and by specific
tax on the cotton grown under the protec-
ton of the levees rebuilt by the Government,
the whole of the outlay can be repaid prob
ably in one, but positively in two years.
Let the Government contribute or loan the
people only the sum that it spent in one day
to carry on the war, for the peaceful pur-
pose, and it will be looked upon as a great
power indeed.
If there IS any possibility of accomplish
ing any thing in the direction contemplated,
we trust the commercial classes of Nash
vile will not be behind in giving it the
weight of their influence. Though unre-
presented in Congress, they can reach the
ear of that body by means of memorial.

THERE is a reluctance on the part of real estate
owners in the South 10 part with any portion of
their lands.-CiHciHndti Commercial.
We take the liberty of correcting the Com
mGciai; we fear, however, it would prefer
not to be corrected. The very reverse Of the
Commercials statement is the truth. The
embarrassed condition of the people of the
South and the abolition of their old system
Of labor, has created a very general desire
on the part Of large land holders to cut up
their estates, in order TO accommodate them
selves TO their new relations. Nor are they
indisposed to find purchasers among North
ern men, if they come with honest purposes
and proper disposition towards those with
whom they propose TO live.
There is a class of Northern people, how
ever, that the people Of the South have no
desire to bring among them-those who pre-
sumo upon our embarrassed condition to get
our lands at mere song; and those who,
while they are willing to make profit of the
South, will not cultivate the relations and
observe the amenities of good citizens but
with disgusting presumption and an intol-
Grant arrogance, misrepresent our views, out
rage our sensibilities, and manifest desire
to have additional burdens imposed upon us.
Such persons will never receive a cordial
welcome as emigrants to the South. All 9TH
ers will find inviting fields for usefulness in
our midst, and frank and respectful de
pertinent on the part of the grand mass Of
Southern citizens.

PRESTON KING.-It is not generally

a time an incumbent at the White House,
and he was made the Collector at New York
Harbor to get him out of the way. But few
understand why he committed suicide; but
there are those who have an idea why he
committed the act. Ii was no doubt his
conscience. IL was PRESTON KING who kept

the morning of the execution Of her mother.

THAT semi-conservatiye paper the Gin
cinnati Commercial but day or two since,
took TO task quite tartly the Gazette of that
city, for gratuitous and grossly scurrilous
fling at General LEE The day following,
however, it is guilty Of an allusion to
Mr. DAvIs's Imprisonment, which dis
plays a temper as ncharitable, not to
say malignant, as that il rebuked in its
radical contemporary. The editor of the
Commercial, if he read his paragraph in
print, must be sensible that he had done his
better sense and better nature injustice in
inditing it, lie must feel that the COMPARE
son he draws between the close confinement
and military Surveillance Of JEFFERSON
DAVIS in fortress, even though he be fed
on average hotel fare, and the well-fed, con-
tented, and unthiaking negro Of the South,
under the late slavery system, is untenable
and unworthy Of a man of intelligence.
A free-bom white American citizen Of high
culture and acknowledged great capacity,
who had filled with distinction some of the
highest STATIONS to which ambition aspires,
cannot be compensated for the loss of his
personal liberty by palatable provision for
his stomach; one Of this stamp, who in
his prison round is daily made to bear the
oppressors wrong, the proud mans CON
tumely,' the pangs Of defeated aspiration,
and the ills and aches Of shattered physi-
cal system, cannot forget them all and cease
10 long for his release in the presence of
viands however tempting. Even the negro
coarse untutored, and insensate as he is in
comparison with such 4 man, might tire and
sickenund the circumstances, Of daily feas.s
fit for the gods. There is a vein Of heartless
badinage in the Commercials remarks about
Mr.. DAVIS that is as painful as it is disgust
ing 10 every man Of proper sensibilities, and
we regret to see it.
