ArchbIshon PnreNlI,, Debt..

New YORK, August 1s.-A special from
Cincinnati says; Judge Yaple, E. A.
Ferguson, Alexander Long and T. D.
Lincoln, Of Cincinnati, Saturday rendered
an opinion, by request of certain Catholic
dignitaries, regarding the liability OF the
church property for the Archbishop's
debts. II is as follows: II 1t can be
established that the grounds were purchas.
cd and the churches built by money
raised exclusively by the congregation
wOrshtping therein, although the deeds
therefor when the ground was purchased
were made to John D. Purcell, the Arch.
bishop, direct, without the declaration OF
u trust therein, the church property is not
and cannot be held TO be liable for the
individual debts Of the Archbishop or his
brother, and their individual or joint
obligations given therefor. The debt does
not become diocesan debt, and could
not be so held, even 1.-THE Archbishop
were disposed to declareit such.
IGThis opinion was given in reply to ques.
tons propOunded BY the committee in
charge OF the Archbishop's affairs, in the
interest, they say, "of over two hundred
thousand Catholics Of this diocese.

VIRGlNIA's STATE DEnr.
To be Repudiated or Not. fhat Is the
Question.


WAsHlNoroN, August 1.-THE question
Of State debt In Virginia has become q
very serious one to Democratic man
ayers in that State, and Of late they do not
hesitate to make known their alarm lest
their party shall be hopelessly divided
upon the financial issue. This Is in fact
now recognized as the central issue OF the
campaign by both parties. It Is pre-
sented in the shape Of any Endorsement
Of what Is known as "the Nc
Cullough bill' which provides for the
population Of half Of the interest
now, reducing the interest on the bonds
for the future by All average Of
q per cent, and repudiating that part Of
the debt which Is held by old Virginia to
West Virginia. Under the lead Of those
Democrats who are opposed 10 repudia.
ton q considerable portion Of the party
has been brought TO see that the proposi.
tions OF the,hICCullouRh bill are certain to
seriously damage the credit Of the State
for many years to come. The Republi.
cans stand BY the credit OF the State, and
are uniting In all directions for co.opera.
ton with those who are in favor OF sus-
tanning the credit OF the State.
The extent TO which this division In
Democratic rank extends Is indicated by
the following extract from the most pro.
nounced Dem cratic paper In the district.
1--WE regret very much to learn OF di.
vision which exists In the conservative
Democratic party Of Virginia upon the
subject Of the State debt, and, unless
be done to heal the breach,
grave fears are entertained for the supre.
macy OF the party in the State. The State
debt seems now to be the only issue in Viz.
ginia politics, and, unfortunately, that
issue is not between the Conservative
and the Radical parties, but Is an issue
which is being agitated solely by the Con.
servatives, and which has produced an un.
fortunate division among them. When
the Conservative party Of Virginia, by
their success in the campaign OF 1869, OBJ |
tanned possession OF the State government,
1t was thought impossible for the Radicals
ever again to be in the ascendency in the |
State, and that the climate was unCon.
genial for scalawags and Carpet-baggers,
but not that the Conservatives are divided
among themselves, great danger Of their
overthrow is apprehended."
