which named Cardinal PAMPHILr under the
title of INNOCENT x, the most vehement dis
cussion arose over the veto intorpOscd by
Spain against Cardinal SAcCHErTI, who was
tho favorite of the Sacred College. The CON
fcssor of the conclavc. who, however, has no
vote in the chapter, declared that they could
not with n safe conscience choose u candi-
date discountcnanccd by powerful prince
But this opinion was ropudinted by n ma
jority Of the Cardinals who would apparent
ly have carried out their purpose in the
teeth Of the veto had not their number
fallen little short Of the requisite two
thirds. An identical state Of things waa
presented by the conclavc of 1868. Here,
again. the records show that II formal veto
was practically dsallowcd, and that Car
dinal SACcHErTI, who was once more the
prominent candidate, was only defeated be-
cause the Spanish faction contrved 10 gain
u third part Of the votes.
Thus IL appears that while In theory
the excrcilo of veto upon the choice
Of the conclavo has seldom been con-
tested, yet IL has often been nullilied
In fact Nor is there lack Of arguments
az well M presidents In the proceed
ings Of past conclnvcs for the Independent
course which, according to report, liz now
contemplated. so long ago ~ in the CON
clavc OF 1864 Cardinal RApAcCIoM pointed
out that while the exclusion of q candidate
by one Of the Catholic sovcrcigns might be-
Justified when specific damage would plain
~ accrue to the monarch, yet that In gen
oral such privilege WIS fatal 10 the lborty
and authority OF the Sacred College. But
the most uncquivucal vindication of the
Cardinals against outside Interference II
contained In paper attributed Ia Cardinal
ALBANT and which was circulated in the
conclavc OF 1865. The author ~ that docu-
mcnt affirmed and his doctrine is expected
to prevail in the next conclaNc- that no
secular prince could. without grave dcrclic-
ton and harm tO interests public and private.
set himself against the elevation OF par
ticular servant Of the Church; and that the
Cardinals would fall into mortal sin If, in
Difference to any king or power. they should
withhold their SURFACES from the most

The Detroit Evening News says that
"ihe Newaygo tub factory is 100000 be-
hind in its orders. Who says that the

mense demand there is for wooden ware
and would indicate that the manufacture

ture Oh wooden ware to that of Cheboy

be had without paying an exhorbitant

far into the interior of this section. makes
a vast amount of territory tributary tt
the place, from which an almost mex
haustable supply of the necessary timber
can be obtained. We think the matter is
worthy the careful investigation of cap
ltalists who desire to make profitable
Investment.

The Balance of Trade.

1t would 81 EN-, from present indica-
tions, that it will not be long before the
balance of trade between this country
and Europe would be in favor of the
United States. In the period from Jan
uary 1st to December 9th, 1876, the inn
ports of specie at New York were $lS,-
279,500-the largest in 10 years, with one
exception. The exports are the smallest
for several years and amount to only
$43, 600, ,000-One third less than the cor
responding period of last year. From
this it would seem that the import of
specie is rapidly increasing, and the ex-
port is rapidly decreasing, and unless
some unforeseen circumstances should oc-
cur, at this rate it cannot be great
while before the balance would be i'm our

of our own mines continue to be abund-
ant, and this, in connection with the rap
id decreasein the export, cannot fail to
give an abundance of specie to supply all
demands OF the nation.
