REVEREND AND DEAE BROrREE-The
Church Of st. John the Baptist, in the First
District of New Orleans, is burdened with
heavy debt. and is threatened to be sold
unless there can be found. within . few
weeks, from $4,000 to $4,000 to meet the
most urgent claims. The sale of one of our
churches would be q dlshonor for the dio-
cese and shame tor the clergy and the
Catholic population. The faithful OF St
John the Baptist, exhausted by the sacri-
fices they have already made, are un-
able 70 meet the present wants. There

which this sale would draw upon us all.

down the turbid Mississippi, drawing nearer
and nearer TO his goal, by Baton Rouge,
when he ceased to be heard from.
A watch was kept for him at Car
rollton, but the skiff failed 20 heavo

tho city that in an eddy Of the river.
a few miles below Baton Rouge man was
found dying in skif. He was almost un-

in q rude plantation burying ground his

history Of the Central Vermont railroad
troubles WAS reached Thursday, when ex ..
Gov. Smith was called upon to testify be.
fore the legislative committee, who are
giving hearings to representatives, of the
bond holders on a petition to have the
road put into their hands. The bond
holders recently held meeting at Boston
and provided for committee to bring as
strong an Influence to bear upon the Leg
islature as possible and strong efforts have
been put forth to reach this settlement Of
the matter, though disinterested persons
have seen but slight probability that the
bond holders would accomplish their pur-
pose. Gov. Smith testified three hours.
lie gave full history of the litigation,
and explained the equipment loan. the
relative position Of all the trust securities
and the history Of the negotiations with
the Vermont and Canada, lie claimed
that the charter Of 1872 gave the pow.

OF the receivers in court, and that the
charter put no Que in place to harm the
