American Machinery i'm EUROPE.

SHOWING WHAT A WILMINGTON MACHINE COULD DO
IN A GERMAN WORKSHOP.
Some month ago, the representative OF an ex-
tensive firm in this city in Europe to sell its
various machinery, amongst others a machine
for grinding and polishing the chlled-iron ,len-
dor rolls used in paper-maising. In tho course
OF his business tour through Germany he enter
ed the Government shops at Konigsbronn, in
Wurtemberg, and proposed TO sell them one of
the machines above mentioned. His offer, how
ever, was refused, tho superintendent saying
that they had their own appliance for the pur
pose which was entirely satisfactory Well asked
the Wilmingtonian, how rapidly docs il perform
the.work? lie was answered that to dress up
aud polish calender roll required, with their
machine, about twenty.one days. snow, said
he, ~ will bring over my machine | will set it
up /; | will put in calender roll which needs
overhaulng, and will grind and poeh it per-
fectly, in single day, or will give you the ma
chine for nothing !"
This was 30 astounding, and apparently 80
wild an Offer, that tho German closed with it,
doubtless believing his visitor had been entirely
too RASH The order was sent to Wilmington
for machine, aud it was shipped, with work
man from the shops, here, TO help put up and
run it. In due course Of time it reached Kon-
igsbronn, and was brought to the test. The re-
suit was that in eiJht hours, a calender roll was
perfectly ground to its exact cylindrical propor-
tions, duly polished, ,and was ready to be replaced
in the paper-Inachne W couree, the bargain
was kept, the machine purchased, and moreover
itora should not be admitted, in order that the
possession of 80 valuable an appliance might be
monopolized as far as possible by the shops at

The Pope Threatens spnim.

SUMMARY OF THE PApAL NuEcros CIRCULAR TO
THE SPANISH BISHOPS.
LONDON Sept 1G
The Madrid correspondents of the Times sum-
marises the circular of the Papal Nuncio to the
Bishops, as follows
The Nuncio claims the ful6llment of tho Con-
cordat which forbids tho exercise of any non
Catholic creed, requires tho transfer of the au-
perintendence of. education to the clergy, and
pledges the co, operation of the secular power
in suppressing heretical teaching and literature.
He says Que of the causes Of the existing civil
war is the way in which religious unity has been
misunderstood by previous governments.
For these reasons, and in view of these con-
sequences. the Holy See believes itself strictly
obliged to present these observations to the
Government.
The Times correspondent adds No doubt
the presentation of this audacious claim at a
time when r liberal cabinet has just been in
stalled, implies threat that if the government
rejects it, the blessing of the Church will be def
initely transferred to Don Carlos, and peace re-
tarded in every possible way"

THE WILMINGTON AND READING RAILROAD MORT
GAGE MUDDLE-soME CURIOUS LEGAL DEVELOP
MENTs.
The Reading Times and Dispatch says that
the suit of sundry bondhollers of the Will
mngton Reading Il. H., asking to have the
second mortgage foreclosed is developing some
curious legal particulars. In brief, these
amount to these that there WAS ali important
oversight in the Legislature of Delaware, when
the company was Incorporated, and there is
now a want OF power in tho courts of Pennsyl-
yania since the adoption of the new Constitu-
ton to foreclose railroad mortgage.
The Times and DtSpdtct describes tho original
charters granted, iirst by Delaware TO build to
this State, and then by Pennsylvania to build in
that State, and finally the consolidation of both
under the name OF tho Wilmington iS Reading
II. II. Co. The Pennsylvania charter authorized
the directors to borrow money "from time to
time and to pledge the said road, rolling stock
and franchises, or any part thereof, to secure
tho payment thereof" while the Delaware char
ter gave power from time to time to borrow
money for corporate purposes and uses, and
execute mortgages on 81! or part Of their real ts-
tate, and issue bonds to eocure the payment of
tho same.
1t will be seen that ample power was given by
the Legislature of Pennsylvania to the company
to mortgage all its property aud corporate franz
citise for the purpose Of raising money, but the
Legislature of Delaware limited it to real estate
twelve miles of railroad in Delaware is merely
nominal. In case Of foreclosure and Hale, no
title to anything but the real estate will pBs5 to
the purchaser Thus about ones si,ch of tho en-
tire road is practically free from incumbrance.
Quite number Of decisions have been made
Ly tho supreme COnrte isf the difrerent States
on the powers OF corporations to mortgage their
property. The courts ara unanimous that
corporation las no power to mortgage its fran
cltiSeS or any property other than that expressly
mentioned in Meu charter of incorporation.
1t appears from tho papers on tils that seven
miles OF the railroad lying between Dirdsboro
and Reading was mortgaged by authority Of
special act of tho Legislature. This mortgage
it is claimed, is prior lien to the others.
Another very important question appears to
be raised by tho pleadings-Can any court Or
der the sale of an in ler-State railroad, when
such sale would title to the corporate franchise
in one State and not in the other?
1t is also stated to be fact that since the
adoption OF the new CONSTITUTION in pennsylva-
MIA none of the courts have power to foreclose
railroad mortgage. The parties obliged oJ
commence proceedings in the Circuit Court to
the United States, and some able lawyers very
much question the jurisdiction of that court in
the matter.

Political Notes.

In recent public speech i'll Maine Judge L.
Il. Hoar, of Massachusetts, said that in his iudg-
ment ''the only security for retaining the re-
suits OF the war is the continued success OF the
Republican party. Let it ever be understood
that whenever that party is broken down the
party which before the war was always ready to
sruckle for place and pander to it's southern
masters will resume its old habits" No doubt
of it. sir.
Judge Kelley, of Pennsylvania, expresses the
opinion that Governor Allen will be reelected by
an overwhelming ma jority. He claims, howev-
or that his election will be the victory OF the
people, and not of the Democratic party.
Tho West Chester Republican says it hears OF
a number of changes among Republicans in that
county who had expressed n determination to
support the Temperance State Ticket ut the
coming election. They are beginning to see
that to do 80 would only help to restore the old
Bourbon Democracy to power in every branch
of the State Goyernment-a conclusion they are
not yet ready to embrace.
The Cincinnati Catholic Telegraph calls upon
ts voting readers to scratch the liame OF one OF
the Democratic candidates for the Senate OF
Ohio because he ID an Odd-fellow.
Hon. Galusha A. Grow has abandoned Texas

inst. He made an earnest plea in behalf of ma
tional good faith, and Significantly asked -" II

trous panic, how can e greater imitation restore

The Harrisburg TdyWdpt denies that Judge
Pershing, the Democratic candidate for Cover
nor OF Pennsylvania, supported the Government
during the war. IL asserts that while IN the
Legislature he aided his party to obstruct and
delay the passage of the law to enable Pennsyl-
vania soldiers to vote in the field, aud that he
voted for a batch OF copperhoad resolutions de-
nouncing nearly every measure undertaken by
the Federal Government to suppress the rebel
