TIoNs AGAINST DISAGREEMENT.
MONTREAL, Oct 7, 1875
No attempt to inter the remains Of Joseph Guibord
In the Catholic cemetery will be made until after next
week, as the necessary preparations cannot be COM
pleted before that time This delay is regarded by
some of the more in1ammable Catholics as an
indication that the members OF the Canadian
Institute dare not make a second attempt to bury Gut
bord There Is doubt that these people will be dis
appointed The general opinion among the citizens OF
Montreal is that the decree of the Queens Prvy Coun
Gil will be enforced by the officers OF the law Ii Is Ger
tain that on the day Of the interment the funeral
cortegc will be escorted TO the cemetery by the
militia Whether these precautionary measures
will prevent c0mmotion such as occurred az tho
first effort to bury Gubords remains can
be predicted The lower class Of French Canadians
are ignorant fanatical and completely under the con
tro o. the clergy Should Bishop Bourget and his
priests positively forbid them to interfere with the in
terment they would obey without murmur The
bishop in his recent address to the people advised
them not to violate the law, but he has not ordered
them not to resist the Institutes attempt to bury
will not issue such order and they fear that his neg
lect will cause another riot
The members Of the Institute disclaim any intention
OF putting explosive materials in the grave in which
Gubordis remains be inferred, They also deny
the report that they have communicated with the
United States naval department concerning the Of
self explosives They expect TO be able TO prevent
Gubord's dsintefmcnt without blowing into

Bishop Ryan boldly his Episcopalian brother
of being con the fence regarding the school ques-
ton and begins review of DR. Cox in the following
manner
GAS the school question has been made the pretext

few sectarian bigots and partisan politicians who
place party above principle and TRUTH striving to
make capital out OF the same, affecting TO hold and

CONSTRUCTION OF. THE LAW REGARDING TILE
BRANDING or CIGAR BoxEs-oPINIoE or THE
ATTORNEY GENERAL
Tic Commissioner Of Internal Revenue has referred
TO tie Attorney General the question whether tho law
requiring wooden cigar boxes be branded with tho
name Of the manufacturer, district and number Of his
factory to be construed as extending pasteboard
and tin boxes which are extensively used in packing
cigarettes. The internal revenue officials could cot
agree, the Commissioner maintaining that the law
must be literally fulfilled although he does not know
by what process tin will be made to take the impression
OF hot branding iron. On the pasteboard boxes the
heat scorches the surface and otherwise dshgures the
package. II is understood that the Attorney General
will decide that il is not the scope Of the law to require
business to damage their wares by forced con-
sructon Of the act which, prior to the passage of the
Revised Statutes did present the ambiguity it is
claimed the Law is involved in

INDIAN AFFAIRS.

COMMISSIONER SMITH ON THE TROUBLE WITH
THE PAILA INDIANS IN CALIFORNIA.
WASHINGTON Oct. Z, 1875
Commissioner Smith furnishes the following state
ment in relation to the charges in Mr.. Nordhoas
letter.
The trouble with the palla Indians in San Diego
county, California does not arise from any Interference
by the department, charged by Mr. Nordhon but
rather from want OF interference. The Department of
the Interior has endeavorcd most earnestly two
years past possession TO the Indians OF the
land which they have always occupied, and from which
they are now being driven The Appropriation FREE
quenty asked for for this purpose has not been granted
by Congress, and what has happened
TO 200 or 800 Indians is likely to come
any day to from 1000 TO 10000 OF the
Mission Indians of Lower California. This trouble is
radical consisting In the fact that in their transfer TO
the United States by Mexico they lost all right and
ceived none in return. These rights the department
has sought diligently to obtain but they can only be
conferred by Congress.
