liams, lamenting the stolid indifference of
the Chinese to the powerful influence of
tract and Bible distribution among them,
says, that " they need to be stirred up
nightly, which railroad would tend to
do" This reminds us of q recommends
ton of Dir. LIVINGSTONE, that the most effec-
tual way of converting the Africans would
be to introduce trade among them-the
missionaries acting as factors, store-keep-
ers and what not. After all, the cute Yam
KEGS hit the nail on the head when in send
ing out missionaries, they freight the ships
which convey them to the " field white for
the harvest" with whiskey and other New
England "notions."

Vicar of Christ were echoed by a burst Of
rejoicing 80 fervent, SO universal and SO
jubilant that the Basilica rang with it..
From within the Aula, from the hushed
and awe-struck crowd gathered round
the Confession of the Apostles, from
the dense multitude that thronged apse and
nave and transept, the shout of triumph
arose again and again, and it was long be-
fore the return of silence permitted the
Pope to deliver very brief and eloquent
AllocutiOn. Nothing could be more ma
Jestlc or more paternal than his gesture
and his voice, and at the close another
burst of reclamation echoed his words.
The 10 Deuns was then intoned by the Pope
and Joined in by chorus Of seventy thou
sand voices, the entire multitude taking up
the alternate verses. The Pope left the
Aula by the side door, but some Catholic
friends who succeeded in getting place in
the Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament, and
who received his first blessing as Infallible
Pontiff, state that he seemed unconscious
of fatigue and radiant with joy.
Rome and the Council. THE public bodies
took no official part in the rejoicings, save
that the Corso and Capitol were illuminated
at the expense of the municipality, but the
people illuminated their windows almost
the heavy rain preventing all
rejoicings, but the Pope will re-
ceive popular ovation next Sunday, it is
said, on a magnificent scale. The Young
Mems Societies have also waited on the
De Eide in order to thank it's
members, and in a most special manner
Mgrs. Deschamps, Pie, Manning and Mer-
millod for their services to the cause of the
Definition. Thanksgivings have been Of
fered in every church, convent and college,
in the shape Of Masses, Tridui and Benedic

of the proposed law.

THE ELECTION OF CLERKS AND
MASTERS.


II d Constitutional provision was
adopted, making the Office of Clerk and
Master elective by the people, it would be
WIG. The position ia one Of great re-
sponsibiliIy, and exceeds in importance
that of the Judges, who now have the
power of appointing the individual TO fill
it. The two Offices should be independent
for various reasons; one Of which is that
the means used in eleciiug the Chaucel-
lor ia not at times free from bargain.
Az for instance the candidate for Chan
cellor, who is exceedingly desirous OF
being elected, ssys to some moueyed man
of the community, that if be will expend
his cash and influence to have him elect.

Men should be chosen to preside on the
bench for their qualifications alone, and

SENATORIAL ELECTION IN MIS-
sIssIPPI.

Mississippians have at last reached the
bottom of degradation at the hands OF
the recoustructionists On yesterday
the Legislature elected on the first ballot
negro (H. r. Revels) as United States
Senator, for the term expiring on the Alb
of March, 1871. Thisis the first instance
of the kind In the history Of the Govern
ment, and Mississippi, the home once oil
Jefferson Davis, is made to perform the
disgusting deed. This negro is repre-
scented to have been born in South Caro-
lima, Of free parents, is forty-seven years
old, and Of the color of well tanned sole
leather, and is q preacher by trade. he
is now. or will be, the representative OF
the brave, intelligent and proud people
of the State he halls from. What fall
ing of there is, our countrymen, since
the days when such as Davis, Clark,
Brown and Sharkey were called on to
represent the State in that most su-
gust body--ihe Senate of the United
States. Times are sadly out of joint
when an Ethiopian can be elected over
the virtue and intelligence of the State
to the highest position in the gift of The
people. What now will Mr.. Sumner and
his confederate negro-loving set do when
the colored person from Mississippi pre-
sents himself at the door Of the Senate
for admission as one Of its members Z
Will they deign TO turn up their abolition
noses and affect to be above associating
with negroes ? Il is hardly presumabe
that those advocates Ct Cufy will now
refuse to receive him with open arms
and sit down with him in high places.
Such would be contrary to the past
teachings of the party. What spectacle
to behold a negro in the chamber where
once could have been found the noble
CLAY, the gifted Calhoun, and the eloquent
Webster We should not expect things to
be otherwise since universal suffrage is
the panacea thought to be necessary for
the evils OF these degenerate times.
In the election CT the regular Senators
to represent the State, Governor Alcorn
was chosen for the long term, and Gen.
Ames, the satrap. for the short term, both
Offices subject to the admission of theState
by Congress. The election of these men
is a clear indication of what military su-
tbority has and intends doing in the South
Had it not been for the power of the bay
onet exercised in controlling the ballot
box, such 80 we're elected would never
have received the couptenance of the
people. "whst can't be cured must be
endured" and submission for the present
is all that has been left down-irodden and
insuited Mississippi.
