Rev. DE-. CUMMINGS, the eminent
Puseyite of London. who, not salts
fed with the simple performances
heretofore practised in his church
the Church Of England-has longed
for more ceremony in the way of
higb-church ritualism, which would
enable him to display himself in cap
and bells, addressed a letter to the
Pope of Rome, asking what would
be the status of Protestants who
attend in the Ecumenical Council,
and whether they would be allowed
to debate the points of difference
between the churches or not. The
Pope answered promptly and frank
". that they would not; they were
summoned there to listen to coun-
Gil and perhaps reproof. but not to
speak. This doubtless put flea in
the old gentleman's ear and il is not
reported that the Rev. DIR. is fixing
to go.

IT appears from late advices that
the question as to the junction OF the
Central and Union Pacific railroads
IL not yet settled. and it is not I'M
likely that the Union Pacific will yet
build their road on into California
and have a continuous and indie
pendent line of their own in which
case our neighbors at Cope are likely
10 be benefited by the close proxim-
ity Of a railroad.
One account states that If an nm
derstandiDg be not arrived at be
tween the two companies soon the
Union Pacific will build a parallel
road diverging TO the nOrthward
from PromOntory and crossing the
GOose Greek mountains at point
opposite the headwaters Of the Owy-
hee, 80 as to strike that stream and
follow 1t down to a point opposite
and nearly due east from Beckworth
Pass iD the Sierra Nevadas /; thence
70 and through that pass TO the Sac
ramento river. We have hitherto
had occasion TO mention the FEAST
bility Of this route and its facilities
for settlement, and the value of the
lands through which IL would pass.
To those already enumerated, we are
now apprised Of the existence of
Duck valley, on the Owyhee, which
IL represented TO be rich and extern
rive. Next comes Independence,
then Quin's river, and so on 60
Honey Lake, making Surprise trib-
ntary also. and across the mountains
into Indian and Owen valleys, thence
to the Sacramento, traversing nearly
the entire length Of one OF the best
grain growing districts in the world
on it, way TO the Bay.
The use of snow-sheds would be
entirely done away with on this
route, especially if they should
change the course at Honey Lake,
so as to take the Noble Pass instead
of the Beckwourth. on which snow
rarely ever falls to depth exceed
ing two feet, and where the altitude
is not az great as on the Dutch Flat
route by a thousand feet. Not only
would the road on the route above
indicated have the advantages above
enumerated in its favor, but to bal
ance the loss Of the White Pine trade
would have that Of Cope District,
which is prospectively as good as
White Pine, as well as the whole OF
Southern Idaho. which would thus
be brought into comparatively close
relation 10 it. We trust the feud
which is said TO exist between the
companies may be real and contin-
nous until the new road shall be
built.

THE Avalanche asks what we think
of Wendell Phillips. We answer
that we regard him as one of the
ablest men in America, but in his
devotion to what be conceiyes to be
right be often loses sight OF the best
means OF accomplishing his ends ;
or in other words is like Simon
Suggs' niger, who shouted so loud
that he broke up the camp-meeting,
thus gratifying his own feelings and
incIinations at the expense of others.

THE CRIME OF THE DAY
Shocking Case Of Infantlcide.
A Babe Strangled and Thrown into
the Mississippi.

While the press, North and South,
is daily inveigling against the "great
crime of the period "-infanticide and
abortion, we can scarcely pick up a
paper, Northern orJSOuthern, Eastern
or Western, that does not contain
some shocking account of a "slaugh-
ter of the i~nnocents." Hitherto,
Memphis has been singularly free
from anything of the sort. We have,
however, a new order of things to
chronicle and we are sorry to say
must present our readersth this morning
with a most terrible case of infanticide.
Day before yesterday during the af-
ternoon, a man named Rose, while
fishing a few yards below the foot of
Beal street, had what he conceived to
be a lively bite. On hauling
in his line he found not the
expected catfish or trout but a wo-
mans petticoat and that loaded,
withal, with something that Mr.. Rose
didn't exactly like to handle. In
fact, he didn't like the smell of it, for
it was more than a game flavor.
On hauling his "catch'' ashore, MI.
Rose found in the petticoat a new
born male infant, of full growth, and
with the "afterbirth " clinging TO it.,
showing conclusively that it was but
a few hours old. The petticoat was
of fine linen, and the make and gen.
eral appearance of it indicated the
wearer to have been one of the hdut
ton, or at least belonging to that class
that is able to wear SO expensive a
garment.
Coroner Samelson held an inquest
on the body, and the Jury returned
a verdict of found drowned"

FIGHT.
Two Old Gentlemen Go for Each
other.
One Seriously Cut.

The corner of Madison and Main
streets was the scene of what might
have been a tragic affair had the dis
putants been better armed.
The one was q Nj. j. Fl. Jones, and
the other Mr.. David Lake, aged res
pectively sixty and sixty-five years.
These gentlemen have had a
grudge between them for several
months, and meeting at the locality
designated, yesterday morning, Lake
asked Jones something about an Of
fensive letter that had been written to
him. Jones acknowledged the au-
t~hOrship, and as he did so Lake
slapped him In the face. He hap
pened to have a barlow" knife in
his hands at the time, and as his assail-
ant struck him he cut at him with the
barlow-making an ugly if not a dam
gerous and perhaps mortal wound.
Both parties were arrested and COM
mitted to jail to awaits hearing. The
wounded man meanwhile having the
kindest and best attention.

How a Special Deputy got into a
SCrape.
And How he was Sent TO Mr. Powers
Boarding House.

A few days ago a man went before
Squire Burke and swore that one
Craft and wife were indebted to him
in the SUM of ten dollars for rent that
the said Graft refused to pay and con-
sequently he, the complainant, wanted
a distress warrant issued against the
obstreperous pair. The warrant was
duly Issued and put in the hands OF
one Redigan, a Especial" policeman
and deputy constable TO serve. This
individual, tlking the writ in his
hands, went out to visit Mr.. and Mrs.
Graft, and in serving it said
to her that the whole af-
fair might be settled by pay
ing him fifteen dollars. Mrs. Craft,
not liking the looks of duress rifle,
agreed to pay the sum, and actually
did do so; coming to town, however,
and consulting with her lawyers, she
found that she had been mulcted in
the sum of five dollars, and, like a
woman, always sin for" a lawsuit Cor
any other kind ola suit, she ''went
for' our Especial deputy" getting
out a warrant for his arrest before
Squire 'Enry He Green. In due time
the ~arrejter became the arrested, and
was arrested, and the cast came up
before 'Enry He. Sale and Wallace
appeared for the prosecution, and Col.
Walter Coleman for the defence. AT
