JUST MARRIED. D.-There is class of un- sophisticated tourists that daily catch the eye of the railway conductor and old trav- eler They have private rooms engaged at the stopping places, and imagine that they have matters so we'll arranged as to escape detection, and yet how easy it is to the careful eye to tell how many days, or even hours, they have been married. Their dress detects them in part-so neat and symmetiral; the parties have good taste, and all business is abandoned; and she who was fashionable belle last winter is positively more like young Quakeress in a simple travelling dress of mouse color. There is sort of guiltiness ill the way that arm steals around, first to the top of the seat back. then gradually closer and in si- lent acquiescence on the part of the bride, that tells the whole tale. Indeed, she re- veals the story most quickly; her shoulders incline just a little, while she imagines she is sitting uprightly to her bearded partner. For few hours they thus travel; but in the long run the head gravitates to the husbands s shoulder, and there it will nestle innocently and confiding in the repose of a newly found faith, as we'll as the happiness of honest, truthful love. And these young folks fancy themselves lost in the crowd. unnoticed and unknown, and with the SC. cret, that they are just married, their own alone. Blessed innocents

FREEDOM OF WORSHIP IN ITALY.

FREEDOM OF WORSHIP IN ITALY.
 The exiled Italian bishops, now living in Rome, recently addressed letter to Baron Ricasoh complaining of the supposed dis crimination against them in the circular of the 22d of October, by which the expatria- ted clergy were invited to return to their duties. The reply of the Prime Minister has been made public. After announcing that the government had already anticipa- ted their wishes, he says:
 The government, therefore. no less earnestly than your lordship, desires that Italy may very soon enjoy the magnificent and imposing religious spectacle now af- forded to the free citizens of the United States of America by the National Council at Baltimore, wherein religious doctrines are freely discussed, and whose decisions approved by the Pope, will be proclaimed ana executed in every town, and village without ecequatur or pldcets.
 :" therefore beg your lordships to con- slder that 1t is liberty which has produced tms admirable spectacle; liberty professed and respected by all, in principle and in fact, In its amplest application to civil, po- iltlcal and social life. In the United States every citizen IS free to follow the persua- slon that he may think best, and to wor- snip the Divinity in the form that to him may seem the most appropriate. Side by side with the Catholic Church rises the Protestant temple, the Mussulman mosque, the Chinese pagoda. Side by side with the Romlsh clergy, the Genevan consistory and the Methodist assembly exchange their of- ice. This state of things generates nei- ther confusion nor clashing. And why is this? Because no religion asks either spe- clai protection or privileges from the state. Each lives, develops and is followed under the protection of the common law: and the law, equally respected by all. guar antees to all an equal liberty.
 The Italian government wishes to de- monstrate as far as possible that it has faith in liberty and is desirous of applying it to the greatest extent compatible with the interests of public order"
 The letter concludes as follows:
 = desired to pay deference to these principles in removing the prohibition to the return of the bishops, and their resi- dence ln their sees. believe that liberty Is good ill profession and practice. and. further, that it has the virtue of converting those who are called to enjoy it's benefits.
 trust that your lordships, returning to your dloceses with the sincere sentiment of respect for the law expressed in your letter among people who wish to remain Catholic without relinquishing the rights and aspirations of the nation to which they belong, will bless that liberty which protects them, and upon which the reconciliation of interests, hitherto appearing irreconcilable, can alone be based.

THE TERRITORIAL BILL.
RECOGNITION OF THE SOUTHERN STATE


 The bill proposed by the Committee on Territories abolishes the present Southern State governments, and all laws made in pursuance thereof. It calls upon all male citizens above the age of twenty one, who can swear that they would not have aided the rebellion after the 4th of March, 1864, and would have complied with the Presi- dents Proclamation of the 9th of Decem- Der, 1863, if the opportunity had been of- fered them, and who can swear they never i'll used Union soldiers, and will henceforth bear true allegiance to the Government of the United States, to organize Constitu- tional Governments in their respective States. It calls for conventions in the Southern States of delegates who can swear that they never voluntarily aided the rebellion in any way. These conventions shall determine if they will accept the terms proposed by Congress, and if so, shall appoint Commission of three mem- bers to provide for holding elections to adopt new Constitution, elect State off, cers, and prepare for admission into the Union.
 Each constitution shall provide against regarding race and color; that the rebel
 
 emancipation of slaves: that free schools without distinction of color as regards the pupils shall be established that no person who held a civil, military or naval office in the confederacy shall be allowed to hold any office except by two-thirds vote of the Legislature. In case of rebellion, Con- gress shall have power to declare a cessa- hon of it's relations with the State rebell- ing until the State is thoroughly pureed of its disloyalty. These constitutions must be ratified by majority of the people of each State who can take the oath of loyal ty. After the ratification of the constitu- tlons, Senators and Representatives of Congress shall be elected, but none shall be admitted to Congress until Congress de- clares the States entitled to representation
 1t is further provided that in case the States decline to accept these terms, they shall submit to Congress a plan of restora- tion, provided said plan recognizes the Constitution of the United States as the supreme law of the land; that the State Constitutions shall guarantee to all persons freedom and equality before the law, and that suffrage shall be impartial without re- gard to race or color; that the rebel wal debt and compensation for emancipated slaves shall not be assumed by said States or claims be brought for such against the United States; also that all laws rccogni. xing slavery, or which exclude the testimo ny of persons of color, or deny the right of trial by jury, or make color 8 distinc tion, shall be null and void; also that the Provisional Governments may suspend the writ of hdbeas corpus in case of resistance of authority, and call on the Government for aid.

The removal of MT. Motley from the po- sition at Vienna, if it be not the result of his own action, is certainly a disgrace to our government. His position as a schol- ar, the high respect entertained for him by the liberals all over Europe, his re- markable services to the nation at the outbreak of the rebellion, and his un- fiinching loyalty, would be ample reasons for retaining him in office, if he only performed his diplomatic duties passably we'll. But we happen to know that he has discharged the functions of Minis ter Plenipotentiary with unsurpassed abil- ity and fidelity More than once he has prevented MT. Seward from committing some egregious blunder, arising from the Secretary of States ignorance of diplo- matic usages and international relations. More than once have his personal inhu- ence and careful management saved us from an ugly quarrel with Austria, at time when our foes were far more nume- rous than our friends MT. Motley en- joys the highest esteem of the Court to which President Lincoln accredited him, where before his time we were represent ed by long series of incapables. Fa- miliar with Europe, it's history, it's Ian guages, it's diplomacy, he is more admira- ply fitted, perhaps, than any other living American, for the position from which he has been removed. The personal friend of kings and princes, he is in intimate correspondence with such men as Bright and Hughes of England, and Gasparin and Martin of France-and is respected alike by conservative sovereigns and hbera statesmen. The administration has doubt less discovered that MT. Motley's sympa. thies and convictions lead him to approve the course of the progressive party of thi country, and accordingly he must give wa. to-an Edgar Cowan. Coawant.
