The reception given in Chicago on Sunday to
Bishop Duggan, of the Catholic Church, in
honor OF his safe return from Europe, was an
immense affair. The procession was more than
mile in length, and it is safe to say that fully
fifty thousand people were in the streets to wit
ness the demonstration. The procession march
ed by the Bishops palace, and saluted him by
raising the hat. He sat on the verandah in his

Call for Arms.

The Richmond Dispatch says that the mon
grel and unconstitutional governments of the
South are constantly calling for arms And
what do they want with these arms? They
pretend that the whites of the South-who
own the property, have the intelligence and
the capacity to govern-who have the most at
stake, and most desire order and security-are
disloya, and that they menace the State gov
ernments! To place arms in the hands of the
ignorant and incompetent upon such idle state
ments would be in the last degree disastrous,
and we have no idea the Federal Executive
will do any such thing. The refusal to comply
with the call, however, may be- seized upon as
occasion for the re-assembling of Congress to
afflict the nation with their destructive plots
and schemes.
But yet we can hardly believe Congress will
allow so barefaced fraud to influence it. The
community complained of is the only portion
of the South that can appreciate the value of
order and good government, and are in state
of perfect quiesccnce, awaiting the course of
events. To arm and set upon them the reck-
less and ignorant bodies who now control the
southern governments would be one of the
greatest crimes ever committed, and would end
in most disastrous consequences to the whole
nation. .+--

details. from which it clearly appeared that
the insurgents already mustered in large num-
bers. that they had fought the Spaniards in
several battles, and that they are still I'M
subdued. To-day we print an ac-
count of the progress of tho revolution,
drawn ND by the Revolutionary Junta which
sits in Havana. and which represents the in
surrection as O movement with which q very
large portion of the Cuban population is in
entire sympathy. and DESTROYS, as soon as pos
sble, to cooperate with. Private accounts, from
sources entirely trustworthy, leave no doubt
that the statements of the Revolutionary
Junta are substantially correct, and that the
instruction is an important movement of the
natives of Cuba for independence. We also
publish this morning powerful proclamation
by the Junta to the Cuban people, setting
forth in forcible and eloquent language the
heavy extorti0ns to which the people of the
island have had to submit, without ever enjoy
ing tho same political rights with the
Spaniards. The Captain-General has acted
with admirable energy in his efforts to crush
the revolt; but if he is not soon entirely sue
cessfu, we doubt his ability to resist tho cur
rent of the popular rising.
