A DISPATCH from Faribault, Mimi, OF

A DISPATCH from raIipaui', -Nt'
Yesterdays date, says: The Farlbauit
school plan, famous wherever the Jurls-
diction &c the Holy See at Rome eH-
tends is dead" Archbishop Ireland
recommended the plan referred to, ana
was sustained therein by Mgr. Satolll'
Archbishop Corrigan and all the other
archbishops and bishops Of the Catho!ic
Church in this country opposed 1t.
The latter many knew better than the
two former what was good for their
church and for the whole country
Rev Patrick Corrigan, a Hoboken
priest. whose disobedience OF the orders
of the bishop of his diocese has been
sanctioned by Mgr. Satolli, is now abus-
inc the former through the newspapers.
As the GAZETTE foretold when Mgr
Sato!li restored TO the priesthood, with
out penace, DR.. McGlynn, who had
spurned the orders of Archbishop Cor
,ipan and made the Pope the object OF
contemptuous ridiculc to large audi
ences of scofers, his arrival in this
country has been unfortunate for his
church lie has stimulated insnbordi-
nation: and discipline is as requisite
and necessary for the prosperity OF
church as it is for that of an army. ln
an evil hour for himself, as well as for
his church, he fell into the hands OF
bad advisers.

The Revenue Office.

After the close of business yesterday
afternoon in the revenue Office, Capt.
P. H. McCaull stepped out and Capt.
Ham. Shepperd went in again for four
years-if not longer.
With Capt. McCaull, all but one of
the clerks retired, and democrats will
take their places.
Captain Shepherd arrived Thursday
night.
There was steady run OF callers yes
terday morning, most of them being in
tine interest of some candidate for Office.
Capt. Shepherd frankly told all that
the slate was nearly completed and
there was but slight chance for any
one. The Captain has had something
like thousand applications.
Captain McCaull was among the
callers, and the two collectors had a
pleasant chat of few minutes dura-
ton.
An Aduaace reporter also called on
the new collector aud was furnished
with the following lists of appoint
ments:
Office force-Captain VIM. H. Fowle,
of Staunton, chief clerk.
Other clerks-Wm. H. Baltic, of Bue-
ma Vista; John A. Herndon, of Danville;
w. w. Grayson, of Bland; Frank Cald-
well, of Warrenton: D. w. Sale, ]. A.
Faulkner and Mrs. Kate Flood, of
Lynchburg.
This leaves only one place to be fill
ed, that of messenger, which will go
to either Madison man or Lynch
burger.
The Captain has done we'll for
Lynchburg, giving the city three
clerks, when under Captain McCaull it
did not have one. Besides, Mr.. w. NJ.
Seay is slated for good position, if he
will accept it.
Stamp Deputies-George Washing
ton, Alexandria.
This leaves Bedford division without
an appointment, but it will be made by
the first of October. Danville, ]. l..

With the exception of the re-appoint-
ment of Captain Fowle, and Mr.. w. II.
Baltic, two of the best men Captain
Shepperd had with him under his first
administration, all the appointees are
new men. The many friends of these
gentlemen are pleased to see them
again in the Hill City, and Captain
Shepperd once more in charge of the
revenue Office. Lynchburg is particu-
larry favored. in appointments, and no
one will have any reason to complain.
The ex-Collector, Captain McCaull,
and his associates have made many
friends during their stay here, the Of
fee has been managed satisfactorily to
those interested, and all have best
wishes for the future. Captain Nc
Caull will locate in Washington,
Messrs. Malone and McMahon will
probably remain here, while others will
return to their former homes.-Lyact-

COMMUNICATED.
Exceedingly Small.

When the members of the centennial
chorus were invited to sing they were
promised a souvenir 1t came, a
hideous green-covered pamphlet, print
ed from plates that had long since de-
served a place in the printers ''hell."
This outburst of munifcence, however,
seems to have staggered the committee,
for they, headed by Prof. Dushane
edward, made vain attempt on We'd
nesday night to recover these "souve-
Mrs" and did succeed in taking them
from few weak-minded men and wo-
men. They also grabbed q few from
those who happened not to have firm
clutch on their precious souvenir" as
they left the hall. o! Washington,

THE PRESIDENT is as wrong in his
opposition to the passage of the bill to
repeal the federal election law, as he is
right in his support Of the bill to repeal
the Sherman silver act. But his per-
sonal interference with either, in their
present stage, cannot be justified. He
can make recommendations to Congress
by public message, but there his part is
suspended until bills are submitted for
his approval or his veto. And he, him
self, is on record as saying, it is for Con-
gress to make the laws ; for him t. exc
cute them.

MAsoNs DENoUNCED.-The funeral
of Gen. Mario Francois de Miribel,
who at the time of his death was chief
of the general staff ofthe French army,
took place in Paris yesterday. Bishop
Fava, of Grenoble, delivered remark
able grafton. He denounced English
Freemasons unmeasuredly because, he
said, they had pushed France into the
Crimean war in order that shemight ex-
haust her gold treasure in needless
combat. The French Freemasons, add
ed the Bishop, were not less blame
worthy. They had melted French
statesmen to take sides against Catho-
lie Austria in order that the unifcation
of Italy might be accomplished.

1t is stated in the newspapers of New
York city that the Cleveland demo-
Gratis of New York State will "knife"
Judge Maynard, the proposed nominee
of the regular democratic organization
of that State for Judge of the Court of
Appeals. If this be so the, people re-
ferred to will afford a marked contrast
to the regular New York democrats,
for the latter, though opposed to the
nomination of Mr.. Cleveland, supported
him to q man when he became the
nominee of the democratic party. But
there are democrats and democrats, or
rather, democrats and men who call
themselves democrats.

JUDG1NG FROM what some Of MIR.
O'Ferrall's friends say, they still seem
to think that an election TO fill his seat
in Congress can be held next November,
even though his resignation thereof
shall not take effect until that time.
The first article ofthe Constitution says:
"When vacancies happen in the repre-
sentation from any State, the executive
authority thereof shall issue writs Of
election to fill such vacancies" The
English language is plain. No vacancy
can happen until it shall occur And
it must occur before q writ to fill it can
be issued. Therefore, if Mr.. O'Ferrall's
resignation shall not happen" until
the regular election day, special cleo
ton will have to be held to fill the va
cancy.

SHOT THE JUD GE.-Rosalin Julian,
q negro, ran amuck yesterday in Ken
ner, a small town few miles above
New Orleans, and kept it in state Ct
terror for several hours. Julian was
arranged before Judge Victor Estpenal
Yesterday morning for wife boating.
While before the court he was or
dered to be searched. as he was known
to be dangerous man. AS the sheriff
approached him for that purpose,
Julian drew a revolver and opened
lire upon him and the judge on the
bench. The judge, who was struck by
a bullet, tried to escape from the room,
when Julian pursued him, shot him in
the back, and then, standing over him,
finished him with bullet through the
heart.
The judges son, Auguste, hearing
the shooting, armed himself and pur
sued the negro down the main street of
the town. Julian lodged into his own
house, seized Winchester rifle and
bag of cartridges and become the pur-
suer instead of the pursued. Auguste
Estpenal was chased by him under a
house, and then finally shot.
Apparently rendered mad by the two
murders, Julian commenced firing at
every one, man, woman, or child, who
appeared on the street, firing over 30
shots and holding possession of the
town for couple Of hours. Fortunate
ly, every one kept under cover, and no
one was shot, although bullets grazed
several persons. Finally, cooling down,
he disappeared, and although parties
have been searching for him all even
ing, no trace of him has yet been
found.
