INDICTMENT OF ANOTHER PRIEST
FOR PREACHING THE GOSPEL.

From the st. Louis Times.l
The Grand Jury Of Franklin county, in
this State. have indicted the Rev. MORTON
STEsEI. German Catholic priest, for preach
ing the gospel without having taken the
Radical test oath. The following is an ex-
tract from the Indictment: "The Grand
Jurors Of franklin county present that
MORMON SIEsEI, a minister of the gospel,
on the Sth Of April, 1856, with force and
arms, at and in the county Of Franklin, un-
lawfully, wilfully, corruptly, maliciously,
and wickedly did preach toan audience then
and there assembled, without having first
taken, subscribed and filed the oath
contrary 10 the form Of the Constitution in
such case, aud against the peace and dignity
Of the State"
The Reverend gentlcman's theme on the
occasion referred 70, was that We are
led to God BY natural and supernatural
light
How long is this persecution going tooon-
tinueg How long will il be endured with
impunity? How long will Christian pa
tence and forbearance submit to the outrage
of impris0ning ministers Of the gospel
How long viii the indignation of the people
be kept from bursting the bonds in which il
Is held by mere regard for the peace Of the
community Not loug, We hesitate mo- to
answer, If the Radicals continue the perse-
cution which they have commenced and
carried on eagainst ministers Of the gospel
and defeuceless woman. Where are the
Irish and German Catholic Radicals on this
question. By their course, they are partiei-
pators in this persecution Of their priests.

June l3, 17SG, and was about 80 years
Of age. lie was of Scotch descent. De
signed by his parents for the legal profcs-
sion Nc was accordingly educated with
that end in view lie was admitted
to the bar in 1S06 and the following
year he cmigrated TO Charleston, S. c.,
intending TO practice law, but failing
to procure from the Legislature en-
emption from the general law requiring
practitioners TO have a years residence
in the state, he returned north, applied
for commission in new regiments about
to be raised, and obtained the position OF
Captain in light artillery. Early in his
military career lie violated rules of dis.
ciplinc under mistaken understanding
of the rules Of the service and was sus-
pended one year.
During the year of his supension he ap.
piled himself 10 the study of military
works, which he completely mastered.
On the breaking out of the war of
1872, Scott received the commission of
Lieut.. Colonel of Artillery. During this
war his brilliant achievements won for
him the position of Major cneral, then
the highest military rank known in our
army, and that too at the early age of IS
years. During the war with Mexico the
distinguished part which he bore crowned
the summit OF his military glory. In 1852
he was nominated for President by the
Wing Convention at Baltimore, and
though defeated he received the whole
strength of the party in TIE popular vote
He was soon after tbs made Lieut.. Gen.
Though by birth a Nirginian, Gen.
SCOTS home for half a century was in
New York and New Jersey. lie devoted
% years to Ills country'S service. His
loyalty and patriotism were always con-
spicuous, and therefore he made no hest
tating plea Of States rights TO avoid duty
when the rebellion broke out. lie obey
ed every call with alacrity, performed ev-
cry duty with fidelity and now that he
has gone, nation mourns his loss with
proioundest sorrow.
