PLAIN WoRps FROM FATHER HyA-
c1NTHE In recent letter that humane,
tolerant, far-sceing clergyman, Father
Hyacinthe, probes to the marrow the
causes which have produced the present
untoward state of affairs in France. In
doing so he does not spare the Second
Empire, or the Church of which he has
been for many years an eloquent expound-
err. He sums up the political and relig-
ious regime of the last twenty years thus !:
"Scepticism at Paris; Fanaticism at
Rome" The Empire, he said, looked
only to material amelioration, and even
in that went astray, forcing public works
in the great cities, stripping the fields of
hands, ard congregating vast populations
which lived apart from the normal con-
ditions of family religious influences, and
consequently of morality. The Govern
ment treated the people to"iood and d.
version" but unlike "our neighbors
beyond the Rhine" left them ignorant.
1t also enforced ceibacy on the army,
thus sapping the foundations Of public
and private intelligence and virtue. This
is severe, yet true, arraignmcnt of the
Empire; but not more so than that which
the venerable Father brings against the
Church. He says: 1.-THE temporal power
and the Pope's infallibility distracted the
thoughts and efforts of those who preside
over the destinies of the Church at a mo-
ment unparalleled in its history. Instead
of the promises and teachings of the
Gospel to the disinherited of this world
the Church, in the noisy echoes of the
press, and sometimes even by the mouth
of its Bishops, treated matters of bitter
controversy about the Pope-King, the
dogmatization of intolerance and the can
onization of the inquisition.' Coming
from the lips of a Catholic divine these
are remarkable declarations. Standing
amid the ruins of Paris, this apostle of
Christianity exclaims "Behold the work
of people which no longer knows God ~
Then in rebuke of an unfaithful priest
hood, he is compelled to say "Behold
the work of those who render it impossi-
BILE for it to believe in that God, and
above all, to love Him !" Never since
the day when the money changers were
turned out of the Temple has more ter
riblc or more just rebuke fallen on the
heads Of recreant priesthood.

Mrs. Vallandigham is still unconscious.
Physicians who are in constant atten-

friends watching by her bedside, BY

reason, while others declare that the
double shock she has encountered during
the last few days in the loss of both
brother and husband, threatened most ia

Mrs, Vallandigham was considered much
worse yesterday. 1t has been deemed

Y Dam OF ANOTHER SoLDIER.-Mr.
William w. Scott, only son of Mr.. Will
liam Scott, of NIiddlebury, VT, died at
his residence in this village, on Friday
June 16, aged 81. Mr.. Scott enlisted
in the I'd Sharpshooters, Nov. 1861. lie
was discharged for the purpose of re-en-
listment in Dec. 1868, and at the same
was appointed Sergeant in Co. +. In
this capacity he served till the close of
the war, being mustered out June 20,
1865. lie bore an honorable record as
soldier. Since the war he has lived in
this village. lie met his death in sin
gular manner. There was no man in
town having apparently stronger con-
stitution or better prospect Of a long
life than he. In January last, while NOV
ing a grind stone with an iron bar, the
stone fell upon the bar while the latter
was in his hands, .jarring him badly. He
thought little Of it, however, and kept
about his work for several weeks. 1t
proved however to be a serious injury to
the liver, resulting in death after long
confinement. In his last days he found
sweet peace in repentance of sin, and
faith in Christ, the sinners friend, and
died in hope of immortality.-Lcbanon

The late Commodore Tatnal's youngest
son remained loyal to the flag Of the
country, although his three brothers and
two brothers.in-law, as well as his father,
traitorously went over to the rebels. As
pay-master in tho navy he was stationed
in Savannah in 1865, and the bitterness
felt toward him for his maintenance of
the Union, was such that hosts of his old
friends in his native city refused to rec
ognize him.

Gov. Parsons of Alabama, who greatly
doubted the wisdom of giving the ballot
to the freedmen, and was opposed to the
Republican party in 1868 on that ground,
but who is now an earnest republican,
thinks that the effect of the Ku.Klux law
of Congress and the Presidents procla-
nation has already done good, and that
if those next guilty of Ku-Kluxism are
summarily dealt with, outrages in that
State will cease. His testimony before
the committee of Congress on the condi-
ton of the South was to this effect.
At the coming State election in Ken
lucky the negroes vote for the first time.
Their full vote is estimated at 10000,
nearly all of which will be given to the
republican candidates. 1t is said the
republicans are making a most energetic
and determined canvass, and reasonbly
hopeful of carrying the State.

field. Saturday afternoon, by cutting his
throat. He was member of the Sunday
school of the Memorial church in that
city, where he was regular in his attend
ance. and, in his lessons, showed logi-
cal and well-balanced mind, that would
have secuted the idea of suicide. He
had common school education and had
attended the academy at Townsend.
His father is Mr.. Clark Stearns, we'll
TODD farmer and respectable citizen of
Windham. He was employed by Mr..
Amaziah Mayo, of Springfield, who con-
sidered him an industrious man and
desirable member of the family. No
cause can be assigned for the sad and
shocking act.

BLACK DAY IN WALL STREEr.-The
New York correspondent of the Boston
Journol writes as follows of the recent
Stock panic in Wall street, under date of
June DIST:
Not since the terrible famous Black
Friday has Wall street seen such day
as this. 1t is one of the field days of this
famed locality. Rock Island has been
the favoritc stock, and has been going up
steadily from day to day, till this morn
ing it touched 1870. Mr., Woodward, the
most daring broker on the street, has
been the chief OPERATOR and in anything
his name is a tower Of strength. The
rumor of scrip dividend has been very
common, and sharp operators have said
that Rock Island would reach $50. In
the height of the excitement at the high
prices, the rumor ran that Woodward had
failed, and had carried down several
prominent houses. In a moment a pam
ic was created, and the street was in a
ferment. At once Rock Island fell 20
per cent, and continued to fall till noon,
when it touched 10. The ocean dashed
to fury. The popuacc, reused to an
uncontrolled mob, gives poor idea of
the state of things in Wall street. Men
trod on one another in the stock room.
The yels were frightful. Many who
sold at high prices and sold to the pool,
found their stock thrown back on their
hands. Many stout and reliable houses
would not own that they had failed, but
said that they would consider the cases
individually as they came up. To say
that ten thousand men were ruined in
thirty minutes would be putting the dis
aster at low figure. Men out of the
street do most of the stock business.
They live up the river; out in New Jer-
sey, and far up in the country. These
men come to the city once or twice in a
week, leave orders, and 60 away. These
men, tempted by the fame of Rock Is
land, have been cleaned out. 1t is ru-
mored that Jay Gould is at the bottom
of this panic that, by combination,
he sold short in immense sums, run the
stock down. reaped a golden harvest and
ruined thousands.

After carefully considering the matter
and writing column and half on the
subject, correspondent of the San Fran
cisco Bulletin comes to the conclusion
that to a man of leisure, or n woman Of
considerable endurance, a visit to the
Yosemite Valley is not an Improbable
mode of spending fortnight, as it recon-
Giles you to the comforts Of home, and
shows you how grand nature can be, and
how small man is in his sel6shncss and
love Of pilfering.

The st. Louis Democrat is disposed to
question the advisability of continuing
our present system of Presidential elect
ors, inasmuch as the original design of
the Constitution that the electors should
select for the people their President has
never been carried out, and the office has
become merely ministerial one, filled by
persons bound to give merely formal ex.
preston to the predetermined purpose of
the peonle.

New MODE OF SUIcIDE.-In St. Louis
last Sunday Mrs. Stricklong undertook
suicide by drowning, but her scheme be-
ing interfered with by a bystandcr, she
returned home, seized the kerosene can,
saturated her clothes with the illumina-
ting fluid and set them on fire. This
time the experiment was successful, so
successful that Elizabeth Garrigan of
Long Island City, after reading the ac-
count, on Tuesday tried the operation up
on herself with equally satisfactory effect.
This is the latest discovery in suicide,
and the only wonder is that it had not
been thought of before. 1t disposes Of
all obstacles, such as probes. emetics,
stitches and stomach pumps. Hanging
is vulgar and fit only for criminals,
drowning is horribly suggestive of hungry
fish, poison is sickening, and throat cut
ting filthy, but roasting has none of these
objections, while it may prove Of value
as a brief preliminary experience, in en-
tering upon that bourn, etc. Mrs. Strick-
longs discovery, backed by Miss Garri-
gan's endorsement, will no doubt create
a new demand for the non-explosivc
article.

There is considerable interest in official
circles concerning the opposing views of
Secretary Boutwell, and Commissioner
Pleasanton, on points connected with the
administration Of internal revenue, and
particularly concerning certain decisions
made by the Commissioner, who claims
his decisions are not subject to the revision
or approval of the Secretary. Secretary
Boutwell, entertains contrary view, as
was recently shown in the case of the N.
Y. Central Railroad Co., the action on
this subject amounting to revision of the
Commissioners decision. Several other
cases are mentioned, showing differences
of opinion which will probably be bought
to the attention of the President and Cab
met for their consideration.
