A Grave Iaann

| Recently we made note of a case
in Toledo which involved the con
troll of the State over Roman Cath
olic cemeteries. AS will be remem-
bered, the plaintiff in that case was
lot-owner in the Roman Catholic
cemetery. His wife dying he had
made preparations for lnterring the
body in his lot, but the priest re-
fused it admission, on the ground
that the woman had ceased to be a
communicant of the Church, and
therefore was not entitled to burial
in consecrated ground. The court
sustained the priest, holding that
the Roman Catholic Church had
control of its own burying- grounds,
and as the regulations ofthat Church
refused burial in such grounds to
persons dying out of communion
with it, the State had no power to
compel departure from the rule.
The sOundness Of that decision has
been much questioned, but we do
not learn that any steps have been
taken to obtain decision from a
higher tribunal.
Now comes a case, different in its
details, but involving the same. prin-
ciple Of Church independence of the
State, which has been decided in
exactly reverse manner by the high
est court known to English law. A
few years since the Canadian Liter
ary Institute Of Montreal, an insti-
tuition composed mainly, if not
wholly, of Roman Catholics, placed
on It's shelves some books and on
its reading room tables some papers
and periodicals which the ecclesias-
tical authorities considered hereti-
cal. The Bishop ordered them re-
moved, but the members of the In
stitute paid no attention to the or
der. The Bishop threatened excom-
municatiOn, and as no attention was
given to the threat, he formally ex
communicated the Institute as a col
lectiVe body.
Some time afterward one of the
members named Guibord, died, and
notice was given the Roman Cath
olic authorities of the purpose to
bury the body in the principal Ro-
man Catholic cemetery. The priest
to whom notice was given refused |
perform the ceremony or to permit |
the interment in consecrated ground.
Appeal was made to the Bishop,who
confirmed the refusal. The mem
bers of the Institute subscribed
funds and determined to carry the
matter to the last resort if oDposi-
tion to interment was maintained
Suit was commenced in the local
courts in the name of the widow
Guibord, and the best counsel OBJ
secured. On the other hand
the Church authorities made ar
rangements for disputing the mat
Ter to the bitter end.
The claim set up on behalf of the
widow Guibord was that the deceas- ,
I'd was member of the Church and ]
entitled to all its privileges. He s
lad never Voluntarily withdrew from {
he Church. He was not an officer 8

The Expectation OF Being Reimburs-
ed for Losses During the War.
WASHINGTON, November 22.-An
army officer who has been spending
some months in the South, and who
returned here to-day, confirms the
belief that the success of the Demo
cratic party in 1876 would be fol-
lowed by an attempt to reimburse
the Southern Democrats for all dam
ages sustained by them while resist
ing the Union armies in the late war.
This officer says that in all the
Southern States the persons who
suffered these losses have, since the
election, begun to gather evidence
in support of the claims which they
will make upon the government in
the event of the expected advent OF
the Democratic party to power. This
officer, who himself was in command
of division which lived upon the
enemy's country, was, at various
places, questioned ss to the line OF
march and the character of the op-
eratiOns of the troops under his
command. The avowed purpose Of
these inquiries was to obtain infor-
nation which might be used as evi,
dence in the future prosecution oi
these claims. The persons inquir
ing made no concealment of theil
intentions, or of the purport of theil
questions.

Tomadoes-The Killed andwounded
On Sunday night last a fearful
tornado occurred at Tuscumbis
Alabama. 1t occurred about six
o'clock in the evening and destroyed
about one-third of the town. Twelve
persons were killed and many others
injured. Mrs. William Winston.
mother of the late ex Governor
Winston; the wife and two children
of Hon. J. B. Moore, Senator from
this district; F. D. Hodgkins, ESQ.,,
editor of the Chronicle, his wife and
four children were killed.
The Catholic church, Dishler Fe-
male Institute, recently finished,
many of the finest residences, both
of the Touring mills, and the most
substantial brick dwellings in town,
are destroyed. Many poor families
are without homes.
A bridge on the NJ. d G. Railroad,
near town, was destroyed and the
eastern bound train was precipitated
into Spring Creek. Fortunately, no
one was killed. The engineer was
badly burned. 1t will be several
days before trains will run through.
The Mayor appeals to Huntsville,
Louisville, Nashville and Memphis.
adjoining towns, in the following
terms: Nearly half of our town is
in ruins; twelve persons are killed
and many wounded; large numbers
of families are entirely destitute.
The tornado came from the south
west, passing northeast. Unless i'm

much suffering viii be the result.
We appeal to the charity OF a Chris
tian public In behalf of thejunfortun-
ate. (Signed, II. F. NEwsU1L

At Selma, Alabama, there was a
terrible storm. Ten to twelve houses
were destroyed, Two persons killed
and q number wounded. At Keyser,
West Virginia, the round house of
the B. & O.. Railroad, was blown
down, and two laborers killed. The
same storm appears to have prevailed
at Cincinnati and did much damage
to houses both there and in Coying-
ton.
Monday q fearful gale prevailed
here, but without occasioning any
special damage. In Trenton, N. j.,
a hurricane prevailed unrOofng
houses and doing much damage. At
Philadelphia it appeared to reach
climax and the telegram says:
A rain storm, accompanied bv
hail and lightning, passed over the
northwestern section of this CITY
this afternoon. The building at
Kaighns, Point Perry, Camden, was
unroofed and a number of fences
and trees were prostrated. The water
in Newton Creek was lifted in the
form Of q water spout and carried
over the causeWay.
In New York and Baltimore con.
siderable damage was occasioned.

than she paid in. AS to Erie in
1869 it paid 81, 600 less than Huron,
but in 1870, only fell short of Huron
$169, and in 1871 fell short of Huron
1902. Sandusky county paid more
than Erie in 1869, less than either
Erie or Huron in 1870 and more than
either in 1871. So you see, neigh
Dor, it is not well to grudge to any
county its fair distributive proper
ton of the school fund, lest you may
be also in the same fix some day.

Buffers JOKES IN New ORLEANS.
Col. G. c. Fulton writing from New Or
leans to the Baltimore American says:
General Butler has left engraven in
enduring granite several pungent jokes
he perpetrated whilst in command of this
city. One of these is on the base of the
equestrian bronze statue of General
jackson. One morning, when the curses
of the people were loudest and deepest,
stone cutter, guarded by file Of SOL
diers, was observed in jackson square
commencing work with his chisel. No
one knew in what way he would desc
crate the monument of the hero OF New
Orleans, aud each letter was watched as
it appeared on the base until that dec
laration which made him famous, The
Union must and shall be preserved" was
spelled out by the indignant people.
A short time afterward, the same work.
man, similarly guarded, approached the
bronze monument to Henry Clay, on
Canal street, and soon was cut deep and
distinct in the granite block, Immediate
ly under the foot of the statue, the fol-
lowing extract from one of the greatest
speeches of the distinguished Kentucky
statesman If | could be instrumental
in eradicating this deep stain slavery
from the character of our country, l
would not exchange the proud satisfac-
ton which / should enjoy for all the tri-
umphs ever achieved by the most sue
cessful conqueror." Little did those who
erected those monuments ever expect to
see such inscriptions upon them, but al
though they gnashed their teeth at the
time, they now regard the inscriptions as
not altogether out of place, in view of
the changes that have been wrought by
fraternal war. The people have got used
to them, and now laugh at these GRIM
jokes of the erratic Butler.
