WE would again call attention to
the magnificent Family Record" de-
signed by Prof TRUMBULL, of Chicago.
No time nor expense has been spared in
the design and execution, to bring it to a
high state of perfection, and thus supply an
article that is much needed in every fami-
".
1t is no cheaply gotten up Autograph, like
most Family Records, but is a Fine Ergrav-
ing, and calculated to last for ages. 1t is
sold by subscription only, at the low price
of $500, without frame. This city and vi
entity is now being canvassed, to give all
who wish to subscribe an opportunity to do
so Or address Family Record, Boz III, r.

ALMOsT.-Jan ODD, in the even
ing Mr. STEPHEN Norris and Mr.. FRANK Ron
fNsoN, of Boscobel. coming from WALKER's
hotel, discovered fire to be issuing from
a roof of a building attached to the Rail-
road Machine Shop. They went immediate
ly TO work, and in very few moments had
hole through the roof, and water poured
IN sufficient to extinguish the flames. The
prompt action of these gentlemen doubtless
averted the destruction of several thousand
dollars worth of property.
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1869-07-20

heartily sustained every pretension of the
Papacy down TO the latest expulsion of her
Bourbons; and Isabella II will be glad TO pro-
mote with all her power the objects of the
Council; but her power at present is nought.
She may favor Rome with her presence next
winter, but Spain is hers no longer; and her
successors in authority are necessarily her an
tagonists in their attitude towards ecclesiasti-
cal pretensions. OF the smaller Catholic
States, Bavaria has already evinced her APP
prehensions of the Council; so that ''Most
Faithful" Portugal alone remains devoted to
the present designs of the Papacy.
As to the Bishops from oversee, but espe-
cially from this country, we feel confident
that their influence will be quietly exerted in
favor of letting well alone. They naturally
shrink from any new declaration or dogma
calculated to widen the gulf between ''the
Church and those from whom it has gained
many converts, and confidently expects to
gain more. They will acquiesce in whatever
may be ultimately agreed on; but they will
prefer to leave matters much as they find
them. We conclude, therefore, that either
the council will be, for some reason, post
poned, or that it will evince an unmistakable
purpose to leave things nearly as they find
them.
