NEW CHURCH OF ST. ROSA,

lin.
Yesterday the chaste and commoaiously built
Church Of ST. Rosa. situated ut Greenfield, L. L.,
anu but short distance from the Coney Island road,
was formally dedicated to the service OF God, with
that pomp and solemnlty which ever characterize
the ceremonias OF the Catholic Church. by the Right
Reverend John Loughn, Bishop OF Brooklyn.
Within the past few years the Catholic population OF
Greenfield had grown SO rapidly that the necessity Of
a church for their accommodation became apparent,
and. having no church nearer than Flatbush in
which they could worship, and

stands In fair rivalry TO many OF the most prcten-
mous and spacious temples q the Cy Of Churches"
The Interior IS gem OF modest and tasteful dccora-
tive art, and the building as whole has been put
up In The most substantial style.
Shortly before ten O'Clock the Most Reverend
Bishop Lougnlln. accompanied by the following
priests, arrived at the cnurch:--Dr. Gardner and
inc Rev. Fathers Moon Hickey, Donghcriy and
McEiroy. A numerous crowd nied the church and

was celebrated by the Rev. Father Hickey, assisted

was devoted solely 10 the eXataion, enllghten ment

New-York tribune., 1870-11-07

The destruction of the French people seems
decreed, for its rulers have certainly gone
mad. They fail or refuse to understand the
action and the temper of the people. They
have failed TO excite enthusiasm for defense
in the provinces, and from all parts of the
country comes news that the people do not
earnestly support the war. At Paris the Red
Republicans attempted. in opposition to the
armistice negotiations, to overturn the Pro-
visional Government, and were only suppressed
by military force. A vote taken Immediately
afterward sustained the Government by an
overwhelming majority, in its action seeking
an armistice, when instantly it breaks OIL
the negotiations. and recalls its agent
NJ. Theirs. The armistice, which was
falsely reported as signed on Friday, remains
unconcluded to this day, and has seemingly
been rendered impossible by the voluntary
action of the helpless and, we are forced to
conclude, imbecile Government at Paris. The
grounds on which this has been done are
variously stated. The most reasonable is that
which declares that France will not consent
to a cession of territory. This statement is
not definite, however. 1t is enough to
know-and very painful intelligence it will
be to all who recognize the utter hOpelessness
of the struggle on the part of France-that
the negotiations are broken off, and that the
srmistice is not for the present possibility.

THE REGISTRATION.

Three full days were accorded Tor the regis
tration of the Legal Voters OF our City. as q
fourth would have been in the more pOpu-
lous election districts had not Mayor Hall by
proclamation forbidden it, The fact that only
$4,000 names were registered on the last day,
though every means had been employed to
swell the lists, proves that there were no more
to register. The average registration on that
day and evening was less than seventy names
to district, while there were quite number
which registered less than score. Cannon
firing, vast professions, and every art, had been
tried to draw or drive voters to register; yet
$4,000 is all that could be found, including the
duplicate and triplicate registrations OF such
beauties IA Mr.. Terence Quinn.
Up to this hour, no man has complained that
he was deferred from registering by any per-
son or act whatever. The Federal Supervisors
and Deputy Marshals have troubled or terrified
no one who was entitled to vote. Never was
the registration of such more easily OF surely
effected than this Fall.

KENTTCK

For The first time, the Republican party pre-
sents candidate for Congress in each of the
nine districts into which Kentucky is divided,
and contests most of them with fair hopes of
success. The White Republicans of this State
have not polled nearly their full vote hitherto,
being deferred by the overwhelming numbers
and proscriptive spirit of the negotiating
Democracy. They gave Lincoln 27,7S6 votes
in '64, Baker for Governor) 25,734 in August,
49, and Grant 1866 in November of that
year. Had there been a chance of success,
they could have swelled this to Fifty
Thousand. The XVIII Amendment has added
at least Forty thousand to their voting
strength but we do not expect them to bring
it all out next week. But they ought new to
carry the With and IXth Congress Districts
and make good fight for three Others. We
hope to chronicle the election of three Repub-
licans-(all gains)-tO the next House from
Kentucky. Thenceforward, the State will be
fairly contested, and we hope soon to enroll
her among the Republican sisterhood She
will poll at least 225,OOO votes for next Presi-
dent-more than 100000 Of them Republican.
The ashes of Henry Clay are out of place in
a State which bonors the memory of Lee and
Sidney Johnston more than that of Thomas
and Mcpherson.
