nothing to apprehend from the dogma, as
the pope was too weak to enforce it even
if he had felt SO inclined; but Bismarck
accepted the occasion as a proper one to
segregate the Germans more directly into
a separate nationality by giving them
religious as well as O political head.
Every movement that alenated the Cash
Giles of Germany from the pope was
facilitated by the authorities at Berlin.
A public sentiment was manufactured
that fattered the pride of Doctor Dol
linger in his opposition to the pope; and
the schism was supported by the govern
ment with such encouragement that its
authors ultimately departed so widely as
to provoke direct action from Rome.
Doctor Dollinger was removed by the
pope only to be reappointed by the en-
peror. His quarrel was made national
affair. The students were excited to up
hold their professor against the unjust
censures Of his ecclesiastical superiors.
And good man that he was and is, he
fell into the current that set against
the Roman Catholic church, and
went with it, until now he is frightened
at his own departure and declares that
he is a true Catholic, Notwithstanding
that he is doubly outlawed, first, by his
own detection, and, secondly, by his ex-
apr iC E',OTr Itch
precedent repeated, and the parallel will
continue until the religious world hears
of the German church as it now hears of
the English church. And why not? If
the nationalities are to be consolidated,
as they evidently seek to be at present,
why may not Germany have her spiritual
head as Russia and England have? The
dethronement Of the pope has broken the
charm of bis temporal power, and here
after he can only hope to be what his pre-
decessors were, bishops Of the church,
solely entrusted with religious direction.
1t does not import the conscience Of man
kind that its shepherd should be king,
but rather that he should be an apostle,
visiting the weak and helping along the
blind by works Of superior wisdom. As
to the emperors and queens who assume
to be leaders in religion, that will not last
long if the people continue to improve in
knowledge as they have done for the last
half century. The principle may serve to
consolidate Germany, but at the end of
that time it will have exhausted its power
over the Germans, as it has already lost
its influence over the English, and the
people of all Europe will demand free re-
ligion, as they now resist infallibility.

ON CARONDELET STREET.

Levee stock has not yet seen the prom
ised land of high prices and immense
profits. The levees have been formally
placed under control of this corporation,
yet, in the face of all their privileges, the
work will not commence on the fifteenth,
as have been the anticipations. 1t is
doubtful, in view Of the present attitude
Of the management, if the work will COM
mence this season in time for full de-
Tense. These are whispers which multiply
in every corner, which have reverbera-
ton in every brokers' office. The mere
mention of the stock is accompanied by
a shrug of the shoulders and a dubious
shake, at once suggestive and conclusive.
Day after day the friends of the stock
have postponed for twenty -four hours the
time of its rising when it has been fall
ing all the time. The truth is, there was
too much of it to be sold. Between 10, 900
ard II, 900 shares have been afoat on the
market: have been caught up and cast
about by the various rumors, and are still
at the mercy Of these winds and waves.
This stock has been sold at SIS 50 to 81 so
a share, ten days ago both being below the
constructive par value, $40. Holders are
rapidly losing faith in it. The time, they
say, has passed for it to yield, and it
has not produced, but has grown barren.
Yesterday the stock was about SIS %,
and if but few sales were made, it was be-
cause the holders looked for better things,
Just as a thirsty man always dreams of
water. There are no outsiders who buy
it. A great many are willing to, and do
sell quietly, as they are not anxious to
figure in transaction where they sold at
a sacrifice. Besides, there is mere sus-
picion that there is good deal too much

DELINQUENT POSTAL OFFICIALS.

Nearly every mail brings US complaints
from our subscribers that they can not
get the REPUBLICAN, though they have
ordered it and paid for it, We notice
that our neighbors, the Times and Plea
4ene, are annoyed from the same cause.
It is very unpleasant for an editor to hear
that any one entitled to his paper is pre-
vented from getting it by any cause. He
would much rather know that, in putting
up the mall the clerk had sent two or
three papers instead Of one, than to
learn from his subscriber that none
was received. And we do not
know which postmaster, or which post
masters clerk, is to blame. 1t can not
be MI Lowell, for he has gone home to
Maine, and left the Office to take care of
itself And when be was in town, he was
so much engaged with his duties as one of
the engineers Of the Gatlin gun conven-
ton, that he had no time to fool around
the letter boxes and newspaper bags. So,
as he has not charged himself with any
official duty, we suppose he can truthfully
protest that be knows nothing about it.
But, however it may happen, it is true,
that there is neglect Of duty somewhere,
and we daily receive letters like the fol-
lowing:

We hear of one of those interested in
the Levee law who sold as high as q
thousand shares even at the low, and
gradually growing lower rate, at which it
is now.
A slight advance is reported in cotton,
but with a restriction of transactions on
account of the high prices of factors, who
are again within the pale Of ''no sur
render" terms. Besides, supplies are
growing scant: receipts are few and pros
poets doubtful
The money market has been reported
all along as without any material
change" Gold is steady-market at
about 1929, sales Of $1,000, $4,000, $4,000
and $500 having been transacted at this
rate.
There is not heavy stock of bacon on
hand at present, which fact prompts a
speculative demand anticipating the
usual call for supplies from the country
parishes. Beside bacon, all the varieties
of cured meat are also III active demand,
which is not expected to subside for few
days. But the demand is usually brisk
that is predicated on a light stock.
Flour is dull, as there is large stock
on hand and no basis for speculation.
All supplies of meat are short for the
present.
The general tone of money and stock
business may be pronounced dull.

The warrant in favor Of James D. Hill,
nephew and partner Of John Davidson,
one Of the commissioners, was issued by
the board after the PRONUNCIATION of the
drainage act, when the alleged board Of
commissioners had no legal existence.
1t is predicated upon services as attorney
of the board. As the members of the old
board could not possibly have any use for
an attorney after being ordered by the
State to hand over their assets, books, ETC.,
and to disperse, this charge is not, Of
course, legitimate. 1t ought to be paid
out of the pockets OF the men who were
resisting the law.
The claim Of Davidson & Hill for cash
advances to the board should be examined
with view to find out what use was made
Of the money thus obtained. If it was
actually expended in the interests of the
drainage system, then SO much of it as
was thus applied should be refunded with
interest.
Fellows & Mills bill of two thousand
dollars rests upon very slight founda-
ton. So far from their advice being of
value to the drainage interest, it involved
the commissioners in useless expense and
delayed by hopeless litigation the work
they were appointed to perform.
Mr.. Roseliu's bill for professional SER
vices in 1868 is no doubt correct, and
by straining point, the $500 charged for
1869 might possibly be admitted; but he
can have no valid claim on the public
funds for 1870. At that time his clients
had no authority to employ counsel at
the expense Of the people. And the
balance of fee for services" in the con-
test with the Ship Island Canal Company,
although it proves that money has been
paid him for assisting the board in resist
ing the law, bears upon its face fatal
objection. We think the Mayor and Mr..
Walton will be justified in allowing Mr..
Roselius $1,000. Mr. Walker may have
good claim against Messrs. Davidson,
Gubernator, Eastman, and the other
members of the board, individually, but
we can not see that the city owes him a
cent for his legal services i'll fighting the
Ship Island Canal Company 1Ie5srs.
Gubernator and Terry have presented a
small bill, it is true, but the curious pub
lie will naturally want to be told why it
was necessary to send these boilers to a
warehouse. Could they not have been
taken to one OF the draining machines
and put under a temporary cover? Or if
they were not needed they could have
been sold. Anything would be better
than to stow them away at a cost of $50
a year.
We do not know that there is any IN
derstanding between the Tammany ring
in New York and cur late drainage COM
missioners. Butitis evident that they both
take good care of their friends. Our com
missioners have been a little behind hand
in making settlement, but that was the
rasultof want of funds. It would no doubt
afford the public some qualification to see
a statement published, showing how the
money has been spent since March, 1859.
If the unpaid bills are sample of those
that have been settled by the commits
sioners while there was cash on hand, we
may infer that New Orleans has little
reason to laugh at New York.
Now, here is case for the Citizens
Association. If the eminently respect

able and wealthy gentlemen who have
volunteered in that organization, will
look into the affairs and transactions of
the drainage commissioners they will, no
doubt, find something that will interest
them, even if it does not happen to be
advantageous. And pending the report
of the Citizens Association, it will be
well for the Mayor and Administrator OF
Finance to take plenty of time to ex-
anime into all the facts bearing upon the
doubtful cases presented for their consld-
Grafton by Mr.. Shaws proposed ordl-
nance, if it is passed.

RELIGIOUS MOVEMENT IN GERMANY.

Dollin9er's schism is what may be
termed the new departure in Germany.
1t promises to bear the same fruit for the
emperor that similar schism did for
Henry VIII, making him the head of the
church in his own realm in Germany, as
the car is in Russia, and as Queen Vic
toria is in England. Bismarck appre-
ciates this opportunity, and from the
beginning he has upheld Dollinger, first
in opposing the dogma of infallibility.
and secondly, in resisting it after it had
been solemnly proclaimed. Germany had
