LONDON, April 11.-ID consequence OF Il e
strike OF the golfers OF the county OF Dur
ham, steamers which were engaged to load
gas-coal for the United States will proceed
to their destination IN ballast.
The TimeS'S Rome correspondent says
the Pope's letter concerning the education
question has great importance apart from
the subject OF which il treats, az it directly
confirms the impression which some news
papers have combattcd. that the Pope un-
derstanIS the liberty and dignity OF the
Papacy to consist IN removing from Rome
all the means OF practiclng and propagating
whatever its Church holds to tie bcre.ica,
and that this gradually increasing insis:ance
on the restoration OF temporal power is
prompted By equally increasing conviction
that unless the PontiT reg2lns his earthly
sway It will he impossible to prohibit lib
erty in worship and instruction. Thus he
declares that in this holy city the religion
OF Christ ought to reign sovereign and uni
versal, and teachers OF the faith ought to
have full power to close all access against
lmpiety. and to maintain the purity OF the
Catholic teaching.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES &Cs
Correspondence OF tho Richmond Dlspatch.l
PRospEcT, April 10, 1879.
Suficien: time has elapsed since the frost
to form an approximate idea OF the extent
Of the damage. Serious apnrchenslons were
felt for the peach crop on Wednesday eve
ming the Cd OF April. The frost that night
was more disastrous than on any subse-
Quent night. Tile chilling winds of Thurs
day may be regarded as the most disagreea-
lie OF the year. The driving blasts OF cold
air penetrated the bodies OF man and beast.
and chilled the sap OF trees. Flowers were
blasted. and everybody was gloomy over
the prospect Of the loss OF every kind OF
fruit. The weather has been cold ever
since. and considerable frost every night
has kept up great uncusincss for the to-
bacco-plants, vegetables. and fruits. A
careful examination proves that there is
perhaps half OF crop OF peaches and
pears. The apples are all safe, and there is
4 good sprinkle OF cherries. Tobacco
plants have stood the frost and cool, drying
winds wonderfully. h..
