At consistory held in Rome, on
the goth of September, speech was
delivered by the Pope. He solemnly
condemned the recent decree of the
italian Government, for consummat-
ing the "sacrilege of the usurpation"
of the ecclesiastical property. He
declared the decree to be null and
void, and confirmed the censures al
ready launched against .hc cs:-.:.-.; cs:-.:.-.;,s:: ;,srs.
The Pope then proceeded to pointout
the calumnies contained in a pamphlet
recently published in Paris, entitled
''The Roman Court and the Emperor
Maximiliam." His Holiness paid q
tribute to the memory of the late
Cardinal Aiteri, who recently died of
cholera at Albano, eulogizing him
for having fallen victim to his zeal.

LoUIsIANA.--The New Orleans
Times gives the following figures of
the Louisiana registry: '"There were
in all registered 127, ,5S8, OF which
number 80, ,865, or nearly two thirds,
were colored. AS all the negroes
were registered, the colored popula-
tion of the State must have decreased
since 1860, for then the number of
colored males over twenty-one years
of age was $1,000. Be that as it
may, it is certain tnat the colored
registered voters had clear majority
of more than 40, 900 over the conser-
vative whites who had been permitted
to register, for the Al, 723 Of register
ed whites embrace not only the con-
servatiye whites, but the radical
whites as we'll, which would leave
only about 10000 conservatives in
all. Being thus fraudUently depriv-
ed of their strength by radical tao
tics, what inducement had the con-
seryative whites to join in the cleo
ton ?"

OPENING OF THE TENNESSEE LEG1s-
LATURE.-The Nashville Gazette, of
the 9Th, says:
The General Assembly of Tennes-
see met yesterday morning. On en-
tering the Capitol, military band,
stationed opposite the Governors
room, struck up "Hail Columbia, +"
and made 80 much noise that we beat
a hasty retreat to the hall, where we
found q large number of members
and office-hunters-the former con-
graduating each other on their good
looks and good health, and the latter
pressing their claims, or those of their
friends, with o pertinacity truly COM
mendable. The Hall of Representa-
tives was decorated with banners and
flags of Tennessee regiments borne
during the. war for the preservation
of the Union and the destruction of
civil liberty. Eight flags adorned the
portrait of Brownlow, while thirty or
forty were fastened to the bar, and
the desks of members. The por-
trait of Andy Johnson has been re-
moved. The Speakers desk was Or
namented with the banners of the
Governors Guards and others. The
galleries contained about fifty negroes
and four militia men, representatives
of the present sovereigns of Tennes-
see. The crowd of "citizens" being
small, the band was placed on the
balcony to draw crowd to the show.
This had the effect of increasing the
negroes.

PooR SAMBo. correspondent OF
the Macon Journal and Messenger
vouches for the following colloquy
between 10. Brown, the Southern
reconstructionist, and himself:
GLOW do you think, Governor, all
this political trouble will end2" "It
will end peacefully and much sooner
than is expected" said he. "But,
Governor, the negro will continue to
be source of political and social
discord amongst u.s." ''No, Sir. In
ten years, there will be scarcely q
negro in the country" "Why, Go
vernon, what in the world will be-
come of him?" He replied to the
question by asking another. Said
he: "What became of the Indion?"

GooD SUGGESTION. Georgia
paper is advising the establishment
of agricultural societies throughout
the South, to meet the changed con-
ditions of the system of labor, and
urges the scheme as q pressing ne
cessity, for the reason that the at
tempt to carry on the culture of the
ground under the old management,
in such entirely different conditions,
will make the country poor, and Keep
it SO forever.
This is an admirable suggestion.
If ever there was time when the
agriculturalists of the South should
take council together, it is now; and
we trust that in every Southern State
the societies suggested, the old socie-
ties, will be revived or new ones
formed.

The nIajorities OF Last Year.

AS o matter of interest to our
readers. we note the former Repubi-
can maiorities in the States which
held elections this week, and from
which we are now receiving returns.
When these are completed, readers
tell can tie gains and losses of
Tuesdays elections.
In Pennsylvania, the last test vote
was for Governor, in 1866, when
General Geary, Repul an, had a
majority of 27,12s. the entire vote
being 597,37O.
In Ohio, at the election for Cover
nor, in 1866, Cox, Republican, had
nearly 10000 majority over his De-
mocratic competitor.
In Indiana, in 1866, Gov. Morton,
Republican, had majority over the
Democratic candidate of 90, ,8S3. s'
In Iowa, the last Governor had
16, 1856 over the. Democratic candi-
date. Not much change is expected
in this State.
Our readers may, by saving these
figures, keep themselves posted.

Mrs. LNcoLN's WARDRoBE.-The
New York Citizen, in an article on
Mrs. Lincoln's exhibition of herself
and her goods, says:
''This public unpacking of trunks,
with letters, and reflections, and ad-
vertising, is in about as outrageous
taste as could be imagined. Where
the necessity for it? Simply, of
course, to enhance the value of the
goods, and make people bid up. To
some extent, it looks to me like trad
ing on the dead, making mantle of
a dead husbands skim"
The Washington Star gives us
another wrinkle in connection with
this matter:
"There seems to be no doubt that
the above sale was really made-the
proprietor (now deceased) of pro-
minent avenue restaurant being the
purchaser.

YORK CoURT-AaREEMENT BY THE

At an informal meeting of the

time allowed parties to suits to make
preparation for trial, that in no case
will trial be insisted upon, where
both plaintiffs and defendants do not
give their consent to go to trial.
This course applies only to the civil
dockets. 1.e
