modifying the Falk laws.
The Ultramontanes are resolved to re.
commence the war against Bismarck, and
str up the Catholic population against the
government. The first important meeting
of the Catholics has been held at bort,
mund, westphalia, at which 10000 per.
sons were present, including many noble
men and influential leaders. The meeting

party in the Reichstsg, and expressed the
hope that the Catholics would move In the

sponsible for their acts; also to demand
the total abolition OF the May laws.

trupt against the Government. Two mem

Rain, but NO kain Falls.
BRIcxsBuRa, n. j., May 1.-THE fire is
still raging about us, the sun and sky are
obscured and the air is sitting. The flames
are fierce about Cedar Ridge and Kettle
Creek. The Protestant churches had
special prayers yesterday for rain. At
Posts Station, a house and barn and four
cattle were burned Saturday night. De-
vastation is great in Cumberland and At
lantic counties. Railroad men report great
rayages by fire among vineyards of the
German population OF the county floss very
heavy. Yesterday afternoon the residents
OF Asbury Park and Ocean Grove we're
startled by the intelligence that the forest
fire had reached the gates OF these summer
cities. Sparks and cinders, some very
large, shot up from the burning woods.
The FIRE departments ot both places
turned out and saved the houses from the
fying sparks, while the citizens success
fully fought the flames in the woods by
back fires, aided by the change OF the
wind. II Is reported that the flames de-
stroyed everything in aud around Ham
monton, Ellwood and Egg Harbor. The
atmosphere is so thick with smoke that 1t
Ia difficult to breathe. The vineyard
country from here to Great Egg Harbor,
Is totally destroyed. The people have
given up all hopes. They are prostrated
by their efforts in fighting the flames, and
helpless with despair.
