Letter Of the Pope on the sittia'
tiOn.


LONDON, July 19.-On the 2Sth ult ,at
Rome, the Pope held a consistory, at
which he precanonized the Bishops of
Zipo, in Hungary; of Oporto, in Portu-
gal, and of st. Iaeo, in Cape de Verde.
He afterward published the nominations
made since last month, in brief, of the
Patriarch of Lisbon, and of the Bishops
of Briganda and Miranda, in Portugal,
and of the Bishops of Mezo and Elens,
in Partibus. He then addressed the Sa-
cred College in letter, in which he an.
nounced his decision in these words:
ave are, my very dear brothers;in tile
hands of Divine Providence, We have
nothing to expect from human aid, for
man has abandoned US. Why should
we dissemble 1t is better that should
tell you that Kings and Governments,
their promises, leave us to our
fate. They have addressed us and sent
US their warmest congratulations on the
day of our Jubilee, but they are far from
taking any step in support of their mes
sages. We can hope for no help from,
any quarter. King Victor Emmanuel
will be here in few days, anG will be
by the Ministers of the Catho-
lie States. We have done all that was
in our power, but our efforts have failed.
All is lost. You will tell me; perhaps,
that we have still hope in France; but
France can do nothing. She is going
through frightful crisis, which may be
succeeded by others yet more dreadful.
repeat it: All is lost, and only mira
Gle can save US. Turn, then, to the AL
mighty, and seek this interposition from
Him.

The San Domingo Job BEING Qui.
etly Pushed.

Tie rotten SAN Domingo scheme is
to be again brought before the people
and urged as an Administration measure
1t is not dead, but sleepeth. The New
York Evening Post (Rep.) says it is
told that the following is true: ~
"The Republican Congressional Com.
mittee is circulating thousands of Sena-
tor Harlan's San Domingo speech
through the country as Republican
campaign document.
"rhey were. it is said, repfoached fol-
this by Republican who does not think
San Domingo out to be annexed; the
reply was that Senator Harlan, or some
one for him, furnished the copies of the
speech gratuitousy to the committee
for circulation, This is of course a
poor excuse, for on the same ground
they might circulate secession or pro-
slavery or reputation speeches.
"But the opponent of San Domingo
replied: Il will buy 10000 copies OF
Senator Summers speech on the other
side; will you circulate these if / give
them to you?' And the answer was
refusal"
The Post wants to know who gave
the Republican Congressional Commit
tee "authority to revive the San Domin-
go job, or to scatter over the country,as
a Republican document, copies of a plea
for annexation"

"Primary Meetings" !"

The audacious and shameful attempt
to prostitute a great church to the am
bition of a notorious corrupt politician
like Senator Harlan, has reacted, as VIC
supposed it would do, and called forth
the severest rebuke from the press and
leading members of that large and infu
entail denomination. The Northwestern
Christian Advocate, which is regarded
as the highest authority in the Metho,
dist Church of the West thus refers to
the letter of Mr. Newman, in which he
recommended his brethren to look after
the "primary meetings. and to nomin-
ate the "right men, to re-elect Harlan,
because he had supported San Domingo,
and was influential with the President
cit will seriously damage him unless
he can disavow all connection with it
In our Judgment; it ought to do so.-
That the world MAY know that the M.
E. Church has no fellowship with this
kind of political intermeddling, we thus
speak out Change names, and for DR..
Newman put the name of Archbishop
Purcell; and for James Harlan put Pat
rick McBirney, and let the circulars
have gone to every priest in the State,
how we would have denounced it The
names unchanged, and the fact estab-
lished, we denounce it just as promptly
and just as severe: That it was ''con-
fidential'' makes it only the worst"

AReason as is a Reason.

The New York Herald reporter inter-
viewed Grant recently at Long Branch,
where the Government is spending the
summer, on which occasion the reason
was disclosed why General Grant be-
came Republican, and consented to be
the candidate of the Radical party. He
says: Il believe that if Democratic
President was elected there would be
little chance for those who fought for
the Union. They would certainly have
got rid of Commander and Chief of the
army and so shelved me! Believing
this / went into the contest in earnest y

An Old Account.

A rough looking specimen of human.
ity was cruising along Chatham street,
New York, not long since, when he
came plumply upon a Jew, specimen
of his race, about whom there could be
no mistake.
Without a word of warning, the
rough kicked him sprawlihg into the
gutter. Picking himself up, and taking
his "claret' faucet between his finger
and thumb, he demanded an explana-
ton.
"Shut up, or III bust you again %
shouted the aggressor,approaehing him,
II never done nodiDgs nit you, and
what for you mash me in the nose?"

Yes, yer hev; yer Jews crucified
Jesus Christ, and I've a mind to 60 for

dred years ago"
"Wal, don't care if it was-I only
heard of it last night.' replied the un-
washed, again going for his victim, who
wisely went trifie faster in the same
direction.

Dying.

Benz. F. Taylor, of the Chieago Jour-
nal, draws the following beautiful pic
ture in reference to the certain rdepar-
ture fer that undiscovered country:
There is dignity about that going
away alone, which we call dying-that,
wrapping of the mantle of imrnortaf-
ty about lis; that Putting aside with
pale hand the azure curtains that are
drawn around this cradle of a world !;
that venturing away from home for the
first time in our lites, for we are deads
and seeing foreign countries not laid
down on any maps we have read about.
There must be lovely lands somewhere
stayward, for none ever return that 60
thither, and we very much doubt If any
would if they could.

and the old quivering of the limbs was

above the deep breathing of the specta-
tors, was the clicking of the ivory cubes.

The Ku Klux Investigation.
Radical TrickerY Exposed.
Important witnesses Kept away.

WASHINGTON, July 21.-One of the
vilest and most contemplate of Radi-
cal tricks has just been unearthed here,
and is to be made matter of immediate
investigation. Messrs. Beck and Blair,
the Democratic members Of the Ku
Klux Committee here, have been greatly
surprised at the non-appearance of prom
inent Southern gentlemen who had been
summoned as witnesses before the com
mittee, and who, it was well known, were
ina position to give correct and tluth-
ful view of the Southern situation. In
view Of the unaccountable delay in the
arrival of, these witnesses, dispatch
was sent to the Southern papers last
night stating the surprise that was ex
pressed, and especially mentioning as a
singular circumstance that such men as
Gen. Wright and Gen. Gordon and Hon.
L. Hardeman, Jr., of Georgia, who were
thoroughly conversant with affairs in
their State, had failed to appear in an
swer to the summons
This dispatch was published this NOR
ming, and before l o'clock to day the
following telegram was received from
one of the parties named as dilatory
witness:
MACON, Ca, July 2l.
"Mr. -: l telegraphed July IL
that l was ready to report. Received,
July II, from j. r. French,a reply that 1
need not come,as the committee had not
time for more witnesses.
STgned T. HARDEMAN, Jr."
The J. R. French mentioned is the
Radical Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate,
and he also acts as Marshal for the Ku.
Klux Committee and sends out all sub
penas. Mr.. Hardeman's dispatch was
sent at once to Mr.. Beck, who called the
attention of the committee to it without
delay, and demanded an immediate in
vestigation French was sent for, but
could not be found, and the inquiry was
put off until tomorrow, and meanwhile
new subpenas were issued for Harde-
man and all others who were supposed
to have been deceived and kept away by
French's lying and unauthorized tele-
grams, for the presumption is that Har-
deman is not the only witness who has
been kept away by him. The question
now arises, whether French did this on
his own responsibility, or whether he
was urged to it by tbe Radical members
of the committee. Certain it is that the
as a whole did not authorize
it, dhd when Hardeman's dispatch was
read today every member seemed sur
prised. Messrs. Blair and Beck are de-
termined to sift the matter to the bot
tom, and find ont who is responsible for
this attempt to suppress the truth

We would direct the earnest attention

gestions from an exchange:
"Now that our standard bearers have
been placed in the field, our declaration of
principles made, and the campaign fairly
opened, what is the duty of the Democ-

organize thoroughly. There must be no
halting or hesitating in this matter
"Procrastination is the thief of time"
and delays always dangerous. Up then,

be found in our camp. We want every
man to feel as though the fate of the
election depended upon his individual
efforts. No stone must be left unturned !;
no labor shirked that will serve US in
securing an honorable victory. The
hour for inaction has passed. We must
bestir ourselves. Every township must
be thoroughly canvassed. Every honest
vote of the party must be polled, and, if
this is done,we shall as certainly achieve
a victory in October as an election is

The Question.

The Radical candidate for Governor
of Kentucky, Hon. Jno. NJ. Harlan, in
public speech in 1866, said:
"If the American people continue the
Radical party in power, they will do so
at their peril, for it is the avowed pur-
pose of the leaders of that party to sub
vert our civil institutions and centralize
the Government"
All that is just as true to day as it was
in 1866, and far more evident than then.
Senator Trumbull, in a speechsin oppo-
sition to the Ku Klux bill, said:
'The question is whether we are to
revolutionize this Government: and no
longer have a Republic composed of
separate States, but centralized, con-
solidated Government-to strike out
thirty seven stars and have but one"
The Democracy do not want our civ
il Institutions subverted, nor our Gov
eminent centralized and consolidated,
and opposed to striking out thirty-seven
stars and having but one, and mean so
to vote.

Death OF the Wonderful Finley

IFrom the Boston Post, July 19.l
We mentioned in our columns ,,yesterr
day the presence in Boston Of most
remarkable child, the offspring of Jo,
seph and Ann L Finley 1t presented
the remarkable as well as unprecedented
phenomenon of two heads, sour arms,
and two legs, s,and all upon single body.
The girl--lor such was its sex-died

The first half, or head, breathcd its last
at 5, and the second shortly after 8.
o'clock The many thousands in the
Western and Middle States who have
seen this marvellous cccentricity Of ma.
ture will learn its early death with rel
gret. The child-or children as it would,
almost seem proper to allude to the
phenomenon-had enjoyed excellent
health from her birth, nine months ago,
until within two weeks, at which tme
one exhibited signs of illness. This.
however, was but temporary, 1t feegva
efed. and was bright and playful. Since
reaching Boston, a few days since, the
other-or the other half was taken sick
and died yesterday afternoon, as already
Stated. The two portions of the body,
were so intimately connected that the
death of one rendered that Of the other.
inevitable. The spectacle was equally
novel, strange, andunparalleled. Upon
one end of the body reposed tie head
of the dead infant; upon the other, that
of the live. one, with its eyes still: bright
and curious, aud its lungs in full breathj

accomplish was done, but it was found
unavailing. The child died in the pres::
ence of its parents. The corps presents

The disposition of the body is not de-

with amazement and interest, but all at.

wJudge Wright, of Georgia, in his
testimony before the Ku-Klux Commit
tee, at Washington, stated the following
interesting historical fact. In 1864 he
saw President Lincoln, who gave the
witness his views concerning amnesty,
showed him his amnesty proclamation,
then written. and told him there were a
few Of the most virulent rebels that it
would not do to pardon for some time,
but he intended that the great mass of
the people south should be restored to
their former relations with the Federal
Government, for he did not believe it
possible to administer republican gov
ernment where a considerable portion
of its citizens were deprived of any of
their essential rights. This policy of
