HOUSE OF REPREsENTATIvEs.

WEDNESDAY, Nov. 22.-The House met
at 10 A. NJ, Speaker Richardson in the
chair.
THE PENITENTIARY.
Mr.. Enloe, from the Penitentiary Com
mittee, submitted their report, recommend
ing the ratification of the lease Of the Peni-
Tertiary to Messrs. O'ConnOr and Looney.
The report was accompanied by resOlu-
ton to give it effect.
Mr.. Vaughn offered a resolution to lease
the Penitentiary to Messrs. NewsOm, Hor-
ton & Co., for $4,000, and said that he
was informed that the gentlemen could give
good bond, but that their organization was
not yet completed.
Mr.. Spears said he had no doubt that the
Inspectors of the Penitentiary had done
what they thought was best for the interes
of the State in making this lease, but the
facts brought to light this morning showed
that better terms could have been
secured. He was disposed to obtain the
highest possible amount for the Penitentia-
nv, and he, therefore, moved that the con-
sideratien Of the matter be postponed till
next Tuesday at ten o'clock.
Mr.. Rosson had no doubt that the In
spectOrs made the contract with MessTs.
O'Connor s. Looney in good faith, and that
they had ample power, under the law, to do
so. 1t would, therefore, be an act Of bad
faith on the part of this Legislature to en-
tertain this eleventh hour proposal. he
regarded it as a horse jOckeying proposition
to interfere with the other mems trade. As
the State had entered into a solemn contract
with Messrs. OConnor q Looney, he hoped
the Legislature would ratify it.
Mr.. Snipes said the Inspectors, IN
der the law, had plenary power to
make the contract. 1t was, therefore,
an accomplished Eact, and whether the State
gained OF lost by the transaction, it was a
mere waste Of time to give it any further
consideration.
Mr.. Allison, of Williamson, said there was
one provision of the act which gentlemen
had overlooked, and that was that the In
spectors were authorized to lease the Peni
! tentiarv Oh condition they found It unprO
/ fitable 10 manage it by the State. Accord
| ing to the report Of the inspectors, tn
Penisentiary hid cleared $4,000 during thu
past year, and there was, therefore, nOthini
| to be gained by this lease. He hoped tn
House would consent to postpone furthe
consideration ofthe lease till next Tuesday.

The Postoffice Department has received,
through the Treasury Department, the first
instalment of defaced postage stamps on
account of the Fools Million. A lady in
Bridgeport has forwarded dilapidated so
lace tobacco box full of cancelled three, two
and one cent postage, with slight sprink-
ling of internal revenue stamps, with let
ter stating that she is a member of a
Bible class in an "Episcople" church
in that city, aud that she had
been advised to collect the stamps by
the superintendent, who had told them
that certain parties in New York had offer
ed to ray the sum of $500 for one million
of cancelled stamps. She concludes her
letter with an ingenious insinuation that,
having seen her ability as a collector, the
Govnrnment will doubtless be desirous of
securing her valuable services. By all means
let her and the intelligent superintendent be
employed and sent out as missionaries
among Vincent Colyer's Apaches. Their
credulity must certainly commend them to
that distinguished humanitarian.

HARRY BAssErr AND STERLING

From the Turf, Field and Farm.
The proposed match between the celebra-
ted three-year olds, as telegaphed to this
country, and published in the daily papers,
is not correct. As we advised our readers
last week, if Mr.. Edmund Tattersall was
authorized to make such a proposition, it
would come through his Office, as our cor
respondent, Neptunus, was the first person
on either side of the Atlantic who broached
the subject. We received a letter from Mr..
Tattersall, dated London, Oct. 26, in which
he incloses the following slip, cut from some
of the English papers:
''Alr. T. Lombard offered Mr.. Gretton
$4,000 for Sterling after his race on Thurs
day, which was declined. No money could
tempt his owner to part with the horse. A
challenge has been sent to America, through
Mr.. Tattersall, to run match with Harry
Bassett for 10000 a side, $1,000 forfeit,
Cesarewitch Course, at the Newmarket
Hughten meeting of 1872"
He authorizes me to state that the above
paragraph, and all others of similar purpOrt
in the English papers of the same week, are
not correct, but that he expects a letter
from Mr.. Gretton the following week, stat
ing upon what terms he will match Sterling
with Harry BasSet. Mr.. Tattersall has
promised to write us letter to publish in
our next weeks paper, which will doubt
less give us the necessary information res
pecting the terms of the proposed match.
There is no doubt that Sterling and Har-
ry Bassett are the best horses in the two
countries, Judging by their performances.
A race between them would create a world
of excitement in England and America.
But we have little hope of seeing the match
made, first because Mr.. Gretton SAYS that
he can not give up the time to visit Ameri-
ca; secondly, Matthew Dawson, Sterling's
trainer, can not leave England
with hundred horses in his stable, and
thirdly, Col. Mcdaniel can not leave and
give up his lage stable of youngsters with
their valuable engagements, to run single
race in England. But in the meantime we
shall wait, as will our readers, with much
anxiety Mr.. Tattersalls promised letter,
and We trust that it will finally result in an
international match. We expect to lay Mr..
T.'s letter before our readers next week, at
which time we will be enabled to know its
terms and discuss its merits.

ROME.
PapaI AIIocutfOus,

New YORK, Nov. 22.- A Paris paper
has an account of an interview granted by
the Pope to large body of persons. One
of the number asking how long the oppres-
sion of the Church should continue, the
Pope replied: "We should resign ourselves
to the will of the Most High. Pray with
out ceasing for the whole world, for every
where evil is making fearful progress. In
France impiety is now again lifting its head.
In Germany herresy is making great efforts
TO Oppress the christian religion and to es-
tablish its own greatness upon its ruins.
But what is still more lamentable is that tie
impious movement is countenanced by the
governments. In Russia, Spain, Switzer-
land, indeed everywhere, revolution seeks a
triumph to drag down society and to abuse
evils.
ROME, Nov. pa consistory will be
held on Friday for the preconization of
bishops, when the Pope will pronounce an
allOcution, in which he is expected to refer
to his course in connection with the occu-
patton of the city by the King.

mrssIssIPp. RrGHrING HERsEI.F.

The Southern States have gradually
thrown of the Radical yoke. Texas was
the last State to 90 this, and now Missis-
sippi is ready. One more effort and she
will be free. The Jackson Clarion of the
18th inst. says: at is impossible to state
with precision how the popular vote of the
State stOOdin the late election. There was no
candidate to be voted for by the people at
large, and in many Of the counties there
was no organized opposition TO the party
which happened to be clearly in the ascend
ant. Thus, in some Of the northern and
eastern counties there was no organization
against the Conservatives by the Radicals I;
as in some of the River counties there was
no organized opposition by the for
mer to the latter. But, In so far as
conclusion may be drawn from the
immense gains in the election of members
Of the popular branch Of the Legislature,
it may be safely assumed that the opposers
of Radical misrule are in the ascendant in
this State, by from FIVE to ten thousand
majority. The way is open to a sweeping
triumph at the next election, which will
place Mississippi alongside of Virginia, Mis-
souri,, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama,
Georgia, North Carolina and Texas

TRAmPLING ON TEXAS.

In Texas, as in every other part of the
South where the Radicals hold sway,
Grants organization is working systematic
ally to produce the grand result for which
Radicalism eXists-the reelection of the
President, and the retention of power by
his party. To secure these two great ends
no device is left untried, no artifice is con-
sidered too despicable to be resorted
TO. The last evidence of this
comes from a Radical resident Of
Limestone county, Texas. He writes
to friend in New York letter dated Oct.
2S, that martial law has been proclaimed in
Limestone and Freestone counties, by the
Radical Governor. The crime of the two
counties was the choosing of Democratic
representative in the recent election. Not
withstandinC this fact, however, a certif-
cate of election has been issued TO the de-
feated candidate. To give a color Of JUS
tiee to this II was necessary to have
martial law proclaimed in the two
counties. The manner in which it was
done is described as follows: "They con-
cocted a plan tC have the police kill an
innocent man at Groesbeck, and let the
Governor declare us under martial law.
You have doubtless seen a statement made
to the Governor by five or six men from
Springfield, all carpet-baggers and who don't
pay one dollar tax into the SRte or county,
while hundreds Of the very best citizens Of
the county testified exactly the reverse, to
which the Governor paid no attention
at all. We are TO pay a tax OF
$4,000, levied by the Governor 10 pay
the expenses Of bringing the State police
into our midst" The writer continues
Now. am no Democrat, and never was,
but such Republicanism as We have is
worse than any Democracy / ever had
ANYTHING to do with. With fair eXpres-
sion of the people of Texas they will vote

ever get another general election, the

DeIinouents to be Looked after

CHICAGO, Nov. pa meeting of pol

MES was held at Stanard Hall this evening.
Col. Messer presided. The committee of
ten, appointed at a previous meeting, made
their report, in which they recommended
that an executive committee Of eleven be
appointed, whose duties shall consist in the
appointment of attorneys at all places where
the suspended insurance companies are To-
Gated, and that they be instructed to prose-
cute all claims Of policy holders, which for
that purpose are to be assigned by the hold
ers to the committee. An assessment of
one per cent is to be assessed on all policies
for paying the expenses. The report was
adopted and the committee appointed.
Hon. VIM. +. Colbaugh addressed the
meeting, and expressed the opinion that the
concerted action proposed would save at

The meeting was very largely attended
