THRILLING SCENE IN CATHOLIC CHURCH
On Thursday morning, during the nine O'Clock
service at the Church of ST. John the Eyange-
list, in New York, scene took place that struck
terror into the heart OF every mother present
Father Mem ahon, while earnestly addressing
his congregation, was interrupted by one OF his
assistants handing him a note. On perusing il
he remarked:-.I If there is a lady present b. the
name of Curtis she will please follow me at once
TO the clergyroom," adding that so netting had
occurred at her home since she left il one hour
ago" There was a general stir throughout the
assembly, and presently lady arose and made
her way towards the front of the church, the
priest following her out. He shortly returned
however, saying the lady who had responded to
the summons was the wrong person. Ii was
some other Mrs. Curtis whose attention he de-
sired to attract; but as no one moved he con-
tinued, that the child of the woman whose at
tention lie desired TO att act had been burned to
death since she left il that morning. An excla-
nation and woman's shrek OF agony succeed
ed the announcement. and the poor mother was
led through the crowd. A nameless fear had
kept her from obeying the first summons.

BEYNARD THE FOX 4 Burle.que Poem. Bos
ton: Lee a Shepherd. Through Philip a solo
MONS
This is from the low German original of the
fifteenth century. The Fable of the Fox is OF
very ancient origin; for it may be traced in sew
eral languages up to the thirteenth century, aud
probably it existed even before that period. Ii
is in doubt who was the author of this version:
but II is certain that he was man OF wit learn
ing, and knowledge of mankind. Like the Don
Quixotte OF Cervantes, it has retained its popu-
larity since it first appeared. IL has been
brought out in handsome shape by Lee & Shep-
herd.

The statement given in a morning paper of

Duke To the President, that Minister Catacazy

presented the Grand Duke is erroneous, as far
As the shaking of hands is concerned. In con-
sequence of his continued misbehavior and his
personal ealumny OF the President. the latter
mas Tor some time past refused intercourse with
NJ. Catacazy, to whom it was intimated that on
the occasion OF the visit he must confine himself
TO the official act of presenting the Grand Duke
urther than this. he was admonished not to
address the President, and he did not offer his
hand. The management OF the Russian Lega-
ton passed yesterday from the hands of NJ .
Catacazy to those of General GOrloff, who will
be very acceptable person to the authorities
mere. This relieves the President of the un-
pleasant duty, which nj. Catacazy's conduct had
otherwise made necessity, of sending his pass
ports to the Minister, and may be regarded as a
practical compliance with the request of this
government, understood to have been made for
his recall. 1t is understood that NJ. Catacazy
has been ordered by his government to wait
upon his Imperial Highness the Grand Duke
during his tour in this country, an to return TO
Russia Immediately on the close thereof"

Buckley Against Rollins.

SUIT FOR FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS DAM
AGEs-oUEsrIoN OF PRIVILEGED CoMMUNIcA
In the United States Circuit Court in Balti-
more yesterday before Judge Giles, the long
trst instituted in the Baltimore City Courts,
November 6, 1869, was taken up. The action
was brought by John NJ. Buckley, formerly
solicitor of internal revenue, against Edward A.
Rollins, OF Somerworth, Stafford county, New
hampshire, commissioner of internal revenue
in the Treasury Department of the United
States; The action was brought to recover
$4,000 damages for an alleged hbelous letter
10y the defendant to President johnson written
with the purpose of causing the removal of the
plaintiff from the Office he then held OF solicitor
OF internal revenue at a salary of $1,000 wear
the defendant being then commissioner OF in
ternal revenue.
A novel and interesting question was started
by the motion Of the plaintiffs counsel for an
order upon the defendant TO produce a copy OF
the letter constituting the alleged libel the
counsel stating that the original ad been on file
mysterious means had disappeared. This mo-
ton was argued at great length, the counsel for
the defendant contending against its afimissi-
bility on the ground that the letter was an
official communication between officers of the
government, and therefore privileged. This
position the United States district attorney vas
directed to take by the present Solicitor Of the
Treasury, Mr.. Banfeld.
Yesterday Robert j. Brent and A. Ridgely,
Jr., Esqs., counsel for plaintiff, filed a motion
for defendant to produce a copy of the letter
United States, set forth in the declaration in the
cause, as the same was copied and written by I'll.
ID. KirEham in the letter-bo of the defendant,
now in his possession or control. Plaintiff also
submitted the affidavit of Robert j. Brent to
show the g,ounds and reasons for his motion
which athdavit states that the letter in the de-
claration was taken from printed slip in the
Washington STAR of March s, 1869; that said
original letter, which ought to be on the public
files or archives of the Treasury Department or
the Bureau or Department of Internal Revenue
j. not TO be found therein, but is lost, misai, or
purloined; that from said document il appears
that copy of said letter is in the private letter
book of the defendant, which is now the most
authentic and best evidence of the exact con-
tents of said original letter, and that plaintiff
cannot safely go TO trial without the production
OF said letter-book, or of sworn copy of said
original letter, &c. The plaintiff also produce /
the testimony OF Mr.. Boutwell, that said letter is
not to be found on the files OF his department,
&c.
At the conclusion of the arguments of coun-
sci, which occupied the entire day, Judge Gle,
said lie would decide the motion this morning
