No immediate change i'll the rates or man
agement of the Brooklyn ferries is likely to
follow the decision of the Supreme Court that
the city's lease to the Union Ferry Company
is void. The legal point that the lease bene-
flied a part of the citizens at the expense of
the whole, seems well taken, but there are
yet good grounds for appeal, and the contest
will doubtless go to higher court Com
pared with most corporations that undertake
to accommodate the public, the Union
Ferry Company manages singuIarly well,
aud deserves commentator. Whether lis
profits are such as TO enable it to pay
SOB, 900 year for a lease, while charging
the present rates of ferriage, is a question that
its directors have hitherto answered in the
negative. On the other hand, the public will
be dissatisfied if the accommodations are de-
creased and is more likely to clamor for a
reduction of fare to one cent than TO endure
the reimpOsitiOn of the twO-cent rates. On
the whole, it is not at all clear that any de-
cided benefit will accrue if the company should
lose its suit on appeal, even though this city
may find new bidder for the lease, and put
a good price for it into the treasury.

If Superintendent Pilsbury will but live

out of the prisons to pay all Its debts 1t was
thought that the Superintendent had worked
wonders when he made the Sing Sing prison

miracle shall 1t be called when Sing Sing is
actually paying a handsome profit, as it did
last month The excess of earnings over cx-
penditures was nearly one-third of the former.

If anywhere glowing eulOgy could be
honestly pronounced upon the character of
John Morrissey, it would be in the Legisla-
ture where he always kept his hands clean
and bore himself mOdestly. All the resources
Of the language have been so often exhausted
in praise of men who were secretly corrupt
and wicked in public life as well as in pri-
vate, that few will grudge the kind words which
were bestowed yesterday at Albany upon the
memory Of the gambler-member who never
was even suspected of taking bride.
The appointment of Ambassadors to each
others courts by Russia and Turkey implies
that the relations of the two Powers are more
satisfactory than might have been sup
posed, from the reluctance the Turks evince to
carry out Loyalty the Treaty of San Stefano.
But henceforth Russia may gain more by
Cancellation than by coercion at Constan-
tlnople.-Prince LabanOff, the new Russian
Ambassador, is not as well known 10
fame as his predecessor, General lgnaticif,
who seems to be reserved for more important
duties.

Very encouraging reports of the interest

to be held here December 18th, prox, are re-
ceived. Invitations to the number of sew
eral hundred have been disra ched TO differ
ent parts OF the State, and to all the locali-

the matter From many, favorable and en-
couraging responses are made. Yesterday,
Hon. II. M. Rice received word from Mar
quette. The invitation extended is accepted,
and the suggestion was made that all the
mining regions of Michigan should have
representatives invited to attend. This had
already been anticipated, but is mentioned
to show the interest taken in the proposed
improvement elsewhere than in Minnesota
This same correspondent urges and invites
the attention IF the convention to the com
mercial regulations now controlling the
canal OF Sault Ste Marie. A proper regula-
tion of the tariff on the traffic through the
channel, and the Improvement of Duluth, it
is contended will open up trade which will
fairly whiten Lake Superior with sail.

PAPAL POLICY.
The Church Of Roma IN Anericn to BE

Of Cath0lic Nations.

The Church Of Rome IN A,aericn to Be
Placed on a Footing With the Hierarchy
Of Catholic Nations.
Along with resumption on the 1st of Jan
uary most important change in the Cath
olic church's government in America will
take place. Up to this time the United
States has been a missionary station, as it
were. After the 1st of January, according
to the Pope's brief just received by Arch
bishop Wood. we will be substantially on
footing with the hierarchy in European
countries where the Catholic religion
has fourisbed for hundreds OF years.
The archbishop of Philadelphia, as well as
all the other bishops and Wears apostolic in
this country, has received from the pope a
brief in which the particulars of the new
system are set forth. Archbishop Wood
says to-day. through his secretary, Father
Brennan, that as soon az possible circular
embodying the brief will be mailed to every
priest in the archdiocese. In the meantime
the archbishop informs his clergy that in ac-
cordance with the Popes instruction, five
priests were to-eay selected as JUDGES cad
arum judges OF causes). The brief begins
by referring to certain provisions made by
| the provincial council of Baltimore, held in
1866. for the adjustment of questions which
might grow out OF the peculiar condition
OF the church in the United States.
Some of these provisions, however, it has
been found impractcable or undesirable 10
carry out, owing to the unexpectedly rapid
| growth of Catholicism. which has now ne.
cess.tated the adoption of system approach
ing IN many respects the government of the
church IN countries where the canon law has
long been in full force. The church in the
! United States has been on missionary
basis, which renders necessary more sum
mary course OF procedure than that which
exists In countries where almost the entire
population is Catholic. The brief ordains
that under the new system pastors oi
| parishes shall be known as rectors
with most of the canonical rights now be
longing to parish priests in Ireland and heaG
| priests in England and Scotland. All dis
pntes between priest and bishop shall be
settled by the court of causes. Probably
! the most important case in this country be
tween bishop and his unfrocked prizes
/ was the celebrated suit of Father Stacf
against Bishop O'Hara, for having summar
lily removed him from the pastorate o.
church, and forbidden the office of any
priestly function, even to say mass The
evidence of Archbishop Wood was to the
effect that the charge over which FatheI
Stack presided was not parist

New ORLEANS, Nov. 22.-The following official
letter was to-day received from the board of
health in answer to a communication addressed
to the board: New Orleans, La, Nov, %,
l87S.-Messrs. Wheeler and Pinson-Gentle-
men: have the honor to acknowledge the re-
ceipt of your letter of even date, inquiring
whether or not it is safe for persons to visit the
city. Also, if woolen goods can be shipped to
the country without fear of contagion. In re-
ing of the bpard of health resolution was
passed declaring the epidemic of yellow fever
at an end, and inviting absentees to return. In
view of these facts, am of the opinion that il
is entirely safe for all persons to visit the city
and that there can be no possible danger in the
shipment of goods of every description to the
country. Very respectfully,
