ILLINOIS RAILROAD REvENUE.-The peo-
pie of Illinois will be called upon at the
next State election to vote upon proposed
amendment to the constitution forbiddlng
the Legislature to release the Illinois Cen
trail Railroad Company from paying to the
State seven per cent. of its gross earnings,
as stipulated in the charter. 1t is feared
that the virtue of some future Legislature
may not be stern enough to withstand the
persuasions of interested persons. The
question Of calling convention to form
new constitution is to be submitted at the
same election.

LIsTMENTs IN THE UNITED STATEs.-In
June last the Most Rev. Archhishops of
Baltimore, Cincinnati, and New York COM
municated with the Pope on the subject of
enlisting for the Papal army in the United
States. They expressed the opinion that
such an enlistment is not only inexpedient
but impra cticable. The letter was entirely
satisfactory to the Pope, and in q letter in
reply, through Cardinal Barnabo, he an
nounces that all steps in relation to raising
the legion have been ordered to be aban-

THE MEXICAN MlSsIoN.-There has been
: vast deal of speculation relative to the
Instructions given 10 General Rosecrans,
our Minister to Mexico and it nj! turns
out TO have been very idle speculation, as
We supposed. The Washington correspond
ent Of the Baltimore Sun thus winds it all
up:
at is found upon inquiry i'll the proper
direction that the instructions TO General
Rosecrans are not specific or in detail as to
any particular interest or plan whatever.
They are general in terms, and the only
matter that partakes of the character OF
snccifc instructions is the emphatic injunc-
ton to keep entirely aloof from the contro-
ycrsies of the various contending factions
and parties in Mexico; in other words, to
remain entirely neutral.
These instructions were quite satisfac-
tory 10 General Rosecrans, who has leave OF
absence until the 1st Of October, when he
expects to depart for Mexico"
