REJECTED CoMMUNICArIONs.-W have
received communication from JOHN IL.
Woops, Justice of the Peace in Cumher-
land county, defending himself at great
length from certain uuimportant charges
made against him in the local column of
this paper week or two ago. We set the
matter right through our editorial columns
the next day, stating explicitly that WOODS
was not in error in his decision. We do not
feel called upon to make any further repa-
ration. Besides, his defense is so long
that we cannot open our columns toit.
As to the article of g = 49, on the
Byronic hair-line," we have only to say
that it is so absurd that its author would
be "laughed to scorn" if We were to pub
ish it with his name attached to it.

The "Sides. |"

The Lynchburg l'iryinidn interprcts the
demurrer in this paper to the proposed en-
tension Of ;he SoathSide railroad to Cisffon
Forge, where it's name would be mis-
nomcr, to be frcbrsnd. But in stating Its
objections 10 this very reasonable ob]ec-
ton our friend Of tho Iigin'nn exposes
caison of explosives that will possibly tur-
nish little capital for alteration.
The Viyinian asks if We are not ad-
voca,ing an aggression from the north side
uron the south side in supporting the
scheme Of n straight road to Lynchbnrg
!Ssw VIC do not pretend to a north side party,
and do no, propose to name our s'ralsh'
load the North Side" road, we do not
.clpowledgc the justice Of the impeach-
nent.
Richmond has been the largest contribu-
tor in the State to the building of the South
side railroad and all other roads in the
$latc-i. e., the largest taxpayer, and
therefore the bearer of the heaviest part Of
lo hur,hcn imposed by the States sub
z,,rirtion to those roads; and yet, when she
asked permission to build straight road to
recover trade which the railroad move
ments {including the Southside) had robbed
her Of land that ,ciMoM transferring 1t to
ony oiLeT torn IN Eirginia), combina-
ton WIS raised against us, and our petition
tol fnr t,ra NJ ho
Legislature.
But we do not propose to 60 into this
matter for discussion now. That would
be useless. We state the facts as they are
pertinent.
The Ftrqinian intimates that the Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroad is not Virginia
enterprise, and charges that its New York
PRESIDENT has stated that he was in favor Of
consolidating the Richmond and Clifton
Forge railroad with the Chesapeake and
Ohio railroad, and that "he could easily
get control Of the Southsidc road"
This city is the largest in the State-has
the largest trade and the largest manufac-
turing force, pays the heaviest taxes, and is
pretty good judge of "Virginia's inte-
rests 1t is satisfied with the Chesapeake
snd Ohio road. 1t will be completed by TO
reign capital-the same kind of capital that
must build all the roads now proposed. But
rs long os they are built on Virginia soil
and run to Virginia towns they are by no
means alarming. The remark attributed
to Mr.. lir'HrISGToN may be true. We can't
say. II he threatened to swallow the
>"rthsifc, let the IiTyiniGn and General
Malone look out. lie is the great Fe-Fi-
Fo-Fum Of roads
But, seriously, the apprehensions of our
friends are. We imagine, groundless. There
il no hostility in this direction towards
thcm-no disposition to throw brand.
What we meant in the article that the Vir-
G;@id" discusses was simply to present q
question of right. We think the I'iyinian
viii find that what we said is true that
the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Com
pany has n prior right to the way from
Clifton Forge to Lynchburg. This right
has hccn repeated in two or three acts of
the General Assembly, and we have the
lest reason TO believe that the company
means to occupy it.
There is no good reason for difference and
dispute about this matter. We ought all to
nc IN hannonv, and if we arc not it shall
ltct hc due 10 any act Of ours.

The morning star and Catholic messenger. [volume] (New Orleans [La.]) 1868-1881, 1870-09-25

The Boston Traveller, one of the very
few American journals which has shown
good sense on the subject of the war, seems
to have rightly guessed at the true reason
for the unreasonable sympathy of free
people with monarchical power:
The free expression of opinions, by the
press and individuals, as long as they adj
here to truth and national justice, is natural
and generally desirable, but the official
manifestations of favor to either belliaer-
ant by the heads of our Government and
the various departments is inimical to the
position of neutrality which interest and
necessity compels us to adopt. :"
We are at loss to explain this unanimity
of certain class other than by the fact
that there is strong religious undercur-
rent peryading the whole affair. This
bigoted view of the war position was espe-
cia!ly exhibited by the thousand and one
preachers throughout the country who, on
Sunday, made their pulpits ring with &C
clamations for Protestant Prussia and de-
nunciations of Catholic France. These we
can afford to let 60 for what they are worth,
but we believe the conduct of some of our
officials, imperiling the peace and pros
perity of the nation on account of their
own private prejudice, should not be toll
Grated by the people whose interests are at
stake.

THE CHURCH IN THE DIOCESE OF HART
'FoRD.-A correspondent of the New York
Tablet, describing the erection of two
churches in Bristol and Warren, says:
The Catholic Church in these two places
has been and still is keeping pace with the
progress of Catholicity throughout the
HARTFORD diocese. What this progress has
heretofore been your readers may judge
from the remarks of Bishop Mcfarland on
yesterday to sthe congregation at Bristol.
He said: 81 congratulate you, my dear
children, on the accomplishment of the, for
you, great work which we now see before
us-the Improvement of your church. At
first thought that your good pastor and
yourself had made mistake in building
your church too large, but / doubt not,
after all, that it will be here, as in the other
missions of the diocese, ere long, too small
to accommodate yourselves and the influx
of Catholics. The growth of our Church
has been exceedingly great, particularly in
this diocese. Fifty years since Catholicity
was almost unknown in Rhode Island and
Connecticut-the present, diocese. There
were thenFonly three Catholic families in
both States. In 1S2S.--forty- years ago
there was but one Catholic church in the
whole diocese. Now there are in the do
cese of Hartford zoe, 900 Catholics, one hun
dred churches, and priest to attend each
church. 1t is a remarkable fact that though
the Catholics of Rhode Island form but
third of the population of the State,
one half of the children born in this State for
the past year acre bdpti-ed in the Holy Ro-
man Catholic Church."
