The Louisville Courie,-Jouna! publishes
this special dispatch:
NEW YORK, June 23.-Princess Editha
Gilbert MOntez, whose real name is Claudia
Solomon, and who processes to be daugh-
ter Of Lola Montez. appeared at the Tombs
Police Court to-day to confront Mrs. Victoria
c. Woodruff and Mrs. Tenne G. Clafin, the
female brokers, whom she charges with de-
tanning two diamond rings, valued at four
Thousand dollars, and treasury notes
amounting to two THOUSAND dollars, which
property she said she had left with the firm
for safe keeping. The defendants stoutly
denied the charge. At the examination to-
day there were present, beside the princess.
Mrs. Woodruff, Matilda Heron Stoepel, the
actress; Mrs. Sarah +, Norton, the woman
suffragist; Mrs. Francis Miller, a sister of
Mrs. Woodruff, and other ladies well known
for their advanced IDEAS on political and
social subjects.
The Princess was cross examined BY Mrs.
Woodhull's counsel. She reiterated the
statements she had already made in an Aft
davit, that her charges against the defen-
dant were true, and lifting her eyes toward
heaven, exclaimed, 81 do swear, so help me
God" Several witnesses, among them Mrs.
Woodruff, Mrs. Stoepel, and Mrs. Norton,
testified to the unreliability of the Princess
statements. The last named witness said
that the Princess had told her many conflict.
ing stories ia regard to her life. Ga one
occasion she said she fell down
stairs while in convent at Ba-
varia, and struck her head against the
wall. Her head happened to strike secret
spring, a door sprapg open. and in small
room she saw four nuns in the pains of
labor. All the witnesses swore that they
did not believe the Princess under oath.
Mrs. Stoepel testified that che had kindly
cared for the unfortunate woman when she
was in most destitute and deplorable con-
dition, and that che never knew her to hsve
any diamonds, money or other property Of
any value whatever. After hearing the
testimony, Judge Downing dismissed the
complainant, and gave the prisoner into the
and Corrections, who will probably place
her in an insane asylum.

CASTE AND CoLoR-T The Morgan Ifgbgate
NuptiaLs-A correspondent of the Alexan-
dria (Va) Gazette says: "The quietneSs OF
jackson, Mississippi, was broken IN upon
yesterday by the report that an amalgama-
ton wedding was to take place-that
white State Senator was to take unto blm-
self a wife of the darker hue. Many Doubt
ed the correctness of the report. while others
were sanguine, having gained their informa-
ton from reliable authority. The partlcu-
lars, so far as | can learn, are as follows:
few DAYS before the close Of the session OF
the Legislature Senator 4. L, Morgan made
his appearance in the gallery with Carrie V.
Highgate, colored school mistress, upon
his arm. This naturally created great stir
among the representatives of the progressive
party who occupied seats within the bar
Many were the remarks made and slances
cast Several ladies, wives and daughters
of Republicans, who were in the gallery at
the time, retired in disgust, The Democrats
sat quietly and enjoyed the sight, aad the

the nuptials being witnessed only by

WE publish this week on our fourth
page the Naturalization Law which was
passed by the late Congress. The fifth
and sixth sections of the act, in view of
the style in which the Radical party mans
age elections, may be easily understood.
The appointment of Commissioners under
the fifth section and dividing them between
the two parties is merely intended as a
blind to conceal the aim Of the sixth sec
tion. Under the latter section, the Uni
ted States Marshals may appoint as many
deputies as they see fit ''to preserve order
AZ the election in all cities Of over twen-
iy thousand inhabitants. There is no
provision made, however, that these depu-
tics shall be equally divided between the
two parties. And herein consists the
fraud of the bill. It is like all Radio al
legislation-deceptiYe and intended for
party purposes.

that the Holy See had heard that some of
The bishops think that the apostolic constitu-
ton including the dogma of infallibility pro-
claimed by the Ecumenical Council. July IS,
is not obligatory upon the Church SO long
as it is not published soemnly and officially
by the Pope. The Cardinal says that every
one should understand that this view is an
error: The constit ution was duly promul-
