The TEMPORAL SOVEREIGNTY OF THE POPE.
A RELIGIOUS CRUSADE INTIMATED.-Dr. j.
w. Rogers of New York delivered lecture in
Boston on Tuesday evening on the temporal
sovereignty of the Pope before certain Catho-
lie organizations of that city. Before the Ilec-
ture a series of resolutions was adopted de-
nouncing the acts of the Italian government
as "high-handed robbery, inscriptions usur-
patton and abominable sacrilege.' The speak
er went at considerable length into a consider
ton of the resolutions, dwelling upon the
wrongs and injuries done to the Pope ard
through him to the Holy Church, Of which he
was the Father and Head. In regard to this
country. which is SO much talked of as being
Protestant country, he had seen SO much, in
his travels through it, of the spirit of Cathol-
icism, and so many Catholic spires climbing
the mountains and pointing to Heaven that he
was amazed, and was fully satisfied that it was
yet to be a Catholic country. In concluding
his lecture, he thought it not wholly improba-
BILE that the final result might be another cru
SADIE in the defence of the rights and liberties
of Catholicism. The language of the resolu-
ton was gualded,yet suggestive and emphatic
He did not venture to predict a crusade, yet be
knew that if it should become necessary for
the Holy Father to call for men, there are
still Red Knights in Ulster" and men ready
to espouse the cause. Though kings may for
get the Church, the people still remember that
the Popes have always been firm in their de-
fence of the rights and principles Of virtue
and they will drag down kings and princes, il
need be, and stand by and support the church.
If such measure become necessary then
''woe betide the madmen who shall confront
the thunders of this last crusade" Applause.

STATE PoL1rIcs.-The certainty that SEN
ator Morrill, will be reelected by the Legis-
iature has produced an unusual degree OF
camness in political circles. It is now less than
t,ree weeks before the Legislature assemblies
and there is no excitement. There is little
competition for any of the offices of either
House. For the Presidency Of the Senate
the contest seems to be between Foster Of
Watervllle and Buffum of Oldtown, with the
chances, we should say, in favor of the for
mer Senators are inclined to look favorably
upon Mr.. Fosters candidacy from the fact
that he will undoubtedly make more ac-
complished presiding officer than any of bis
associates.

The PnclHc Railroads and their United
RAnaAa

The suggestion in Gen. Grants message
that no more lands or money be given TO cor.
porations or to individuals receives a timely
commentary in the recent disclosures as to
the conduct OF the Union and Central Pacific
Railroad companies. These corporations,
which built the only overland road now in
operation, not only received from the govern
ment alternate sections of land along their
lines, but the payment of no less than $e4,-
100000 of their bonds was guaranteed by the
United States. 1t was a great price for the
people to pay, even for Pacific railroad, but
the enterprise was one of great importance,
the country was impatient TO have it com.
pleted, and there was consequently general
acquescence in the propriety of the immense
grants made to hasten its prosecution. 1t was
understood that its projectors would proba.
bly, realize gigantic fortunes, but, as they as
sumed risks of corresponding magnitude, it
was quite commonly conceded that "for once"
the lavishness of the government was not in
defensible. l.i--
But it was supposed that sense of honor,
II not of gratitude, would lead these pamper-
ed corporations, which are commonly report
ed to have built their roads entirely from
means furnished by the government, without
feeling the necessity of resorting to their i'm
mense landed estate, to save the United
States from any liability on account of its
loan of credit. This presumption was so.
strong that Secretary Boutwell, upon his ac-
cession to Office began Immediately to drop
from his monthly statements of the national
debt these Pacific railroad bonds which had
always been included by Secretary McCulloch
Mr.. Boutwell, did not regard these bonds or
their interest as part of the national liabii-
ties. But his confidence was misplaced.
1t now appears that these corporations, in
the insolence of their almost imperial power,
have not condescended to pay even the inter-
est on the bonds that were so kindly endorsed
by the United States. Already more than
six millions of dollars of this interest have
been permitted to accrue, and the government
must add that sum to its already enormous
obligations 1t is devoutly TO be hoped that
the proposition Of Judge Lawrence of Ohio
to give the United States lien on the lands
granted to the roads may not be regarded as
impairing the obligation OF contracts, though
the national legislature may in its discretion
pass laws open to SO great an objection as that
Judge Lawrence proposes to hold the lands as
security for the payment Of both principal
and interest of the bonds, and to sell them if
necessary. In this proposition there is GER
tainly nothing inequitable, whatever may be
the legal aspect Of the case.

THE NEW CoLoRED MEMBER FROM SOUTH
CARoLINA.- after the reading Of
the journal, on Monday, Mr.. Dawes presented
the credentials of the Hon. Joseph M. Rainey,
elected to fill the place made vacant by the
resignation Of Whittemore, the South Caro-
lima cadetship peddler. As Mr.. Rainey, a
bright, manly, intelligent-looking mulatto.
walked down the aisle to the front of the
Speakers desk, and raised his hand to take
the oath, the hum and buzz of voices ceased on
the floor, and almost every member turned
with an air akin TO respect, toward the first
representative on that floor of the newly-en-
franchised race. Immediately after his adms-
sion, MIR. Rainey was surrounded by dozen of
the more prominent members of the House,
who warmly congratulated him, and welcomed
him to the seat which his predecessor had left
in disgrace. The good impression which his
appearance produced on the House was a sub
lect of general remark, and no one seems to
doubt that he will honor himself and his race
during the short term for which he is elected.
Mr.. Rainey was born in Georgetown, D. c..
and is 38 years Of age. His parents were
slaves, who had bought their freedom, and
with them he removed to Charleston, S. C.
when lad, and has resided there most of the
time since His educational advantages were
very limited, but he has SO improved them
that, though he never went to school, he has
cultivated mind, and will fill his new office in
diligently
