The Brooks PRESS AGAIN VICToRI-
oUs.-The great contest as to Cotton Presses
came off yesterday, under the direction of
the machinery committee,-there were six
Presses entered as the Best Plantation
Press-the celebrated Brooks Wrought Iron
Revolving Press; the McDermott of Mem
phis; the Roux of Mississippi; the Nisbet of
Georgia, and the Dixie or Caldwell Press OF
North Carolina. The committee gave
each Press patient and thorough
examination, and unanimously awarded the
first premium to the Brooks Press as the
best plantation press. The Deering Press,
full size, was upon the ground, but did not
enter the contest. We congratulate our
friend, Capt. G. ID. Bustamante, upon the
success OF his Brooks Press, and hope he
may continue to supply them in the future
as largely as ne has been doing for the past
two years.

They Immediately set themselves to

prisoners by them after an exchange of
shots.

From the Liberty Herald.


In the opinion of Attorney General
Morris, sheriffs are entitled to the same
fees for executing the processes of the
Board of Supervisors as is allowed by
law for similar services rendered in other
courts. This construction entails heavy
additional expense on the different coun-
ties, which will have to be met by the levy
and collection of an enormous tax on an
already overtaxed people. Under this
view the sheriff is entitled to and will
receive 81 80 for serving each road over
seers commission, besides the other fees
and dues which they have formerly re-
ceived, and also the allowance of sum
not exceeding $50 per annum for ex-
officio services. For the service Of pro-
cess in the Circuit and Chancery Courts,
the fee is taxed to the litigants, and the
unsuccessful one has the costs to pay. In
the case of process of the Board of Su-
pervisors, there is seldom or never any
parties contestant, and the fees are to be
paid out of the county treasury. The
Attornev Generals construction of the
law may be the proper one, yet it is re-
markable that forthirteen years the vari-
GUS sherifs of this State have remained in
ignorance of their rights under the law,
or being cognizant of them, have yearly
donated to the different counties large
amount of fees to which they were justly
entitled.

PARIS AND ROME.

It Is rather of . singular coincidence
In the history Of the present European
war that Paris and Rome should both
be besieged or attacked BY the hostile
armies Of two different natisT-the
one by the Prussians and the other BY
the Italians. Yet but a few weeks
have passed since the great rulers OF
each of those cities performed acts OF
great political and religious signtf-
canoe, which each deemed essential In
securing their future rule beyond any
possibility Of change. Napoleon's
measure Of security was bis famous
p,eoisci,un, while Plus TX confidently
promulgated his great dogma Of Infal-
iibili,y. The one Is already followed
by the expulsion Of Napoleon from his
throne-a prisoner In a foreign land !;
and Pin, IN, from present appear
ances, Is liable to see the loss Of his
patrimony Of St. Peter following
closely upon his declaration Of Infalli-
billty. Napoleon, now plainly sees his
dynasty Frustrated, with no possibility
of himself or family ever again ruling,
or misruling, the destinie' OF the
French nation.
With the Pope, however, the situ-
alton Is rather different, In that he
merely loses his temporal power over
a small portion Of Italian territory,
while his spiritual rule will remain
intact. and still extending to the utter
most parts of the globe. he Is not Of
necessity obliged to fly from the Eser.
nal City, but still, under the shadow
Of the great dome Of st. Peters, he
may sit secure upon his spiritual
throne. The forces Of King Victor
Emanuel will not disturb him ; neither
would even a Republican government
interfere with his residence In Rome,
as long as he confines his rule merely
to spiritual and ecclesiastical matters.
There are rumors that the Pope has
already fled, o is about leaving Rome
for a refuge elsewhere, but there Is nc
necessity for that. He will still re-
main in the full plenitude Of his spir.
itual power, In the home Of his holy
ancestors.
