The Ex-Priest ut a Young Mems Chris.
tian Association.
BALTIMORE, November 2lst.-After
the prayer meeting of the Young
Mems Christian Association had been
in progress half an hour, ex-priest
Jacquet entered and took II seat beside
Rev. DIR. Leibaron. A few minutes
afterwards he arose and said: al will
again ask the prayers of my deaT
brethren. In my transition l feel and
find great difficulties; many things
are said, but everything said is not
true. To pass from Catholicism to
Presbyterianism is hard transition.
Many expect great storm, but |
think it is best to initiate our Lord
when brought before Plate" Mr..
Sacquet then sat down, and few
minutes after when enc of the MEM
bers commenced prayer, he got up and
Immediately left the meeting. Arch
Bishop Bailey, in n letter to q news
paper, replies 10 the statement made
by Jacquet; he says he was never
formally received into the diocese, and
that such position as he had in it was
owing TO commiseration for poor
priest, etc. The Arch Bishop states
that Jacquet told him that he had
formed the habit some years ago to
counteract the bad effect of Mississippi
water while performing missionary
duties, and the Arch Bishop adds. that
after Jacquet had been received into
his house he found that he sometimes
indulged in more active stimulants.
Reported Cabinet Changes.
New YoRK, November 21st-'The
Herald'S Washington special says
that there is not the slightest possibil-
ity of the re-enacting OF the law re-
pealed by the Forty Congress
for convening the next Congress on
the 4th of March. The Repub Leans
oppose it. The reorganization of the
Cabinet, it is said takes effect after
the 4th of March 1t is understood
that Blaine will enter the cabinet and
take charge of the Postoffice Depart
ment. 1t is stated that Washburn
asked permission to come home, and
the telegram sent him was one grant
ing his request. The Herald editori-
ally argues the question why Grant
ought to change his Cabinet, and ad-
vanced q number of theories in sup
port of its reorganization. 1t also
argues that Democrats oppose it, and
that this should convince the Presi-
dent that snch II change will be for his
own interests and that of the party.
A new Cabinet, strong in public conf
dence and respect, strong to influence
legislation and harmonize the Repub-
licans, would check the career and
lower the hopes of the Democracy.
The Herald advises Fish to take the
lead and resign, and says other mem
bel will then be forced to resign, and
says other members will be forced to
follow him, and this will gives the
President an opportunity to infuse
new life, hope, vigor and confidence
into the Republican party.
