The Young Mems Christian Association ot Chicago, talk of moving to some city where it won't be such hard work.
Litchfield enquirer., 1875-01-07

Mir. Gladstone's pamphlet on infallibil- ity, the circulation of which at the last accounts had reached nearly 76, GOO copies, is being rapidly vindicated from the charge of being false alarm by the vio- fence of utterance of the English ultra montane organs and leaders. The Tablet, the English Catholic organ, for instance, now declares that if England were beset with war and the pope should ask the Catholic soldiers, sailors and citizens to turn against their country, it would be their duty to do so. The Tablet consid- CTS that over and above the pope's infal- hbility in his definitions ex cathedra, di- vine Providence so specially watches over ali his official acts, that it is always the true and Catholic course to follow what ever moral and spiritual guidance he may give. For our own part, we should take for granted that there were circumstances and considerations to us unknown and unsuspected which rendered the course he advised the one legitimate course. On the other hand, it IS evident that Glad stones fire-brand dropped in the church.
 itself. The controversy between the ul t1amontane and the liberal Catholics grows hotter. Lord Acton makes out strong case in three-column letter to the Times against the popes, one of whom plotted against the life of Queen Bess, while an- other applauded the massacre of St Bar tholomew
 Politically, matters continue dull; the democrats being perfectly confident and the republicans perfectly apathetic. Hence the masses of each are in no hurry for the campaign, despite the urgent advice of | their papers for early conventions. Gov. 1ngersoI is really tired of being governor; it's too expensive luxury, and even W. Fl. Barnum is said to be getting sick of playing congressman, now that no new railroads are provided to consume his iron. So Col. Loomis of New London dearly wants to run for governor, but right in his path stands that dreadful David A.
 Wells, who aJiU talk about that southern railroad Alabama and Chattanoga, wasn't it?) in which he says he can show up some facts that the republicans can use with telling advantage. Right or wrong, when D. A. Wells gets his back up, he is ugly. and doubt if even Tom Waller can keep him in the leash, so unless he is kept in hand, I doubt whether the colonel will chance it. Whether MT. Harrison will ac- cept the republican nomination for gov ernor, this year. is said to be uncertain. l Col. John T. Wait of Norwich and ex- Mayor Robinson of this city are mentioned as candidates in case..he declines. But it's bad year to find candidates on that side who are anxious.-HartfOrd COrs, Springfield Republican.
