INTEREST on THE BoNDs.-The late
decision Of the Attorney General rela-
tive to the interest due on the bonds
issued TO aid In the construction of the
Pacific railroad, will make a serious
inroad on the profits of the company.
The total amount of these bonds OK
ceeds fifty-five million dollars, on
which about $4,000, 900 falls due annu-
ally: 1t is said that the amount due
from the Central Pacific Company will
be about S1,650,000. The Attorney
General decides "that tho Government
may lawfully claim from the company
the amount OF the interest in question,
as such interest is paid by the Govern
ment. The Government may retain
the entire amount of compensation for
services rendered to it by the compa-
ny, applying the same TO the interest
paid by the United States, unless such
interest shall have been repaid by the
company, and in that event one-lialf Of
the compensation for such services,
may be reserved and applied to the
principal Of the bonds"

A BLESSING INSTEAD OF A
CURSE.

We alluded Yesterday to the suspie-
ious copy Of the so called major ex-
communication of Pope Plus the
Ninth against the King of Italy which
is calling out the d|enuneiations of a
portion of the press. We find in the
Marysyille Appeal q communication
relative TO this subject, which as we
predicted, proves the pretended docu-
ment spurious, and merely a copy of
sternes' imaginary epistles. So far
from indulging in the intimate ours
ings set forth in the article the writer
OF the Appeal shows that the opposite
was the real language used. We
quote:
Turning away from the impure
pages of Stcrne, let us hear Pope Plus
the Ninth's own words in his Ency-
clical Letter of November LIST, 1870.
After having declared that Victor
Emanuel and his abettors, who sacri-
~ligiously invaded, or consented to the
invasion of the States ofthc Church,
s'incurred, according to the form and
tenor of our Letters Apostolic mot
the form and tenor OF Sterne and the
Sacramento Union,1 published the
18th of March, 1860, Major Excommu-
uicatiou, and the other censures and
Ecclesiastical penalties inflicted by the
Holy Canons, Apostolical Constitu-
tons, and the DEGREES of General Coun-
ellis. So tar we don't find q single one
80 ffsa 1atglt44tan f1iIatnafn1 hV fha
Sacramento Union. But let "a. hear
Pope Plus out: "Calling TO mind tiiat
we hold on earth the place Of Him
who came TO seek and TO save that
which was lost. We desire nothing
more ardently than To embrace with
paternal love the wandering sons who
may return To us, and therefore rails
ing our hands to Heaven, in the hui
mility of Il heart, we snpplicate
God, to aid us by His suecor, To aid
His Church, and TO bring about thro'
Ills mercy and compassion, that the
enemies OF the Church, thinking upon
the eternal damnation which they are
preparing for themselves, may hasten
TO appease His terrible justice, before
the day Of vengeance, and to console,
by their conversion, the heart of their
Holy Mother, the Church, and our
own grief. | submit, Mr.. Editor, that
these words sound more like a blessing
than the .'Everlasting Curse" attrib-
uted TO them by the Sacramento
Union. II Plus the Ninth, like the
Roman General Scipio Of old, %choseto
carry the war into Africa, he might
hear more tall cursing done about the
Sanctum of the Sacramento Union in
one day, than he ever heard in the
City Of Rome.

An interesting squabble occurred on

tives over q motion by Mr.. Fitch to
return u certain bill relative to one Of
the eastern branches ofthe Pacific Rail-
road, from the Committee to which it
had been referred last Summer, TO the
Speakers desk. Tho bill is to author
lie the Central branch of the Union
Pacific Railroad Company being the
assignee Of the st. Joseph and Hanni-
bal Railroad Company to continue its
road and telegraph line westerly from
the termination one hundred miles, to
q connection with the Union Pacific ut
a point not further west than the Tooth
parallel; on the same terms and con-
ditions as were originally provided for
the construction of the first 100 miles,
including a grant of lands of the even
numbered sections. The motion was
vigorously contested and was finally
beaten.

IT is 100 0 to speak of the Presi-
DENTAL campaign, butJthere can be
little doubt that the Republican nomi-
nee will be General Grant, and no
doubt at all that II he il nominated he
will DO electcd.-lSac. Record.
That depends upon the angle of
vision with which you look at it.
Grants chances for a nomination were
very good a few months ago, but not
so positive now. He would probably
admit himslf that his chances of a re-
election might be better than they are,
even II nominated. The popular cur
rent Is setting In the wrong direction
for any Presidential candidate of that
politics, and If not speedily checked
Gen. Grant will be as easy a candidate
to beat for that position as any that
can BIO named. Some new, active
Western Democratic statesman will
probably BIO Gen. Grants successor.
