Tongues in This Country.
R0NDoUT, n. Y, Feb. 3.-In Mgr. Se-
toli's letter to Rev. Thomas Killeen he laid
down for the guidance Of the bishops the
general principle that whenever congre-

a foreign tongue and pastor speaking that
tongue shis arrangement should be consid-
cred only temporary, and that as
quick as possible the foreign
tongue should be discontinued, and what in
the country is considered tho normal tongue
should be adopted. The letter also stated
that Catholics in this country speaking n
foreign tongue are expected to assimilate as
quickly as is consistent with EHgli5h-
speaking congregations, as they are gener-
oily constituted throughout the country.

PORT ROYALS MIMIC WAR
THE VESUvIUS' Still AT TIE
NAVY YARD DOCK.

The Tests With the Pneumatic Tubes
Continued a@d Seven More Shots
Fired-Two Fired From the Same Gun
Consecutively Fall IN the Same Spot.
PORT ROYAL, s. c., Feb. S.-As already
Indicated ia these dispatches. the tests with
the pneumatic tubes Of the cruiser Vesuvius
were continued at the navy yard dock to-
day. The vessel did not move down 10 the
lower harbor, because it was desired to test
certain important observations made from
data acquired by comparison OF the results
of the preliminary practice with the results
obtained during the present experiments.
In the preliminary practice the range
curves had been calculated from the valve
settings. In the test shots they were plotted
not only from the valve settings, but by
the loss OF pressure in the firing reservoir.
When viewed separately, either Of these
gave a complete system Of range curves.
But when the two were placed side by side
they seemed to indicate that under different
conditions differing range curves were OBJ
tained from the same valve setting. Ii was
TO obtain further data upon this point
which determined the board to continue the
stationary practice at tho naval yard before
beginning the more difficult test in the
lower harbor.
SEVEN SHOTS FIRED.
Beginning shortly before noon seven shots
have been fired to-day with even more sat
isfactory results than any yet obtained.
Two shots fired from the same gun con-
secutively we're absolutely accurate. Had
the test been made on shore the two shells
would have fallen in the same hole. The
first shot fired for a range of 1900 yards
fell directly on the line. The tests Of to-day
were made for ranges Of 1000, 1000, 400
and 800 yards.
Speaking OF the days work an officer said
this afternoon that it would be misleading
TO state that every shot had been entirely
satisfActory. Que Of to-day's shots had, he
said, been Disappointing, but the remaining
six shots had given the most satisfactory
results yet obtained.
The naval tug WahnettR that left Norfolk
Tuesday arrived in the harbor this after
noon at o'clock. This afternoon she came
up 20 the navy yard where Ensign Dodge In
command reported to Capt. Soard OF the
board and afterwArd to the commandRnt
OF the naval station. The Wahnetta brought
the buoYs which will mark the course Ia the
lower harbor. The fuses to be employed
in firing line shells were shipped to-day
and will probably be received tomorrow.
This afternoon an excursion boat crowded
with citizens from Beaufort and Port Royal
visited the Philadelphia and Vesuvius, and
the guests we're shown every courtesy by
the officers of the two vessels II is prob
able that the Vesuvius will not go down to
to the lower harbor before Monday.

IAoKsoNs NOMINATION..
Democrats Msy Mslke an Effort to
Prevent Confirmation.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-Signs are not
wanting to indicate difficulty ahead in the
pathway Of the jackson nomination. There
was special meeting OF the Senate judiciary
committee this morning. The purpose Of
the call was not related to the nomination,
but when il was proposed that a favorable
report should be made upon ii, there was
some show Of opposition from the demo-
cratic side, and the nomination went over
under the rules OF the committees AS far
as can be learned the opposition does not
touch Judge Jackson's character or fitness
or even his democracy. but is based upon
objection founded on principle The demo-
Gratis have taken the position tha5 il was not
proper for an outgoing President to fill life
places of such Importance. There is no
question that senators on both sides of the
chamber are deeply concerned by the prob-
ability OF the nomination of a republican
circuit judge to succeed Judge Jackson, th Q
democrats being determined in advance TO
resist the installation of republican on the
southern circuit and the republicans fear
ing that they will have hard struggle to
confirm such a nomination at this late stage
in the session.
SERIOUS OPPOSITION DENIED.
Special Dispatch to the Morning Neles.
WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-The nomination
OF JuuR6 JACKSON Ah JUSTICE LatQ0rS sue
cessor was more talked about IN the cloak
rooms of the Senate and the House than
any other subject to-day. While there was
q good deal OF growing among certain re-
publcans in the Senate no organized move
ment TO prevent his confirmation was de-
veloped. The democrats in the Senate are
united in support OF Judge Jackson and
believe that they will have no dihi-
Guilty whatever In securing prompt
and favorable consideration for his nomi-
nation with the assistance Of his friends on
the republican side, TO say nothing of the
President and members of the supreme
court. The anti-Harrison republican sem
ators whose threatened opposition to any
nomination Of a republican he might make
for this place was something Of factor in
inducing him to nominate a democrat, will
hardly be able to accomplish much
against the supporters Of Judge
jackson. There is no expectation
among senators that Mr.. Harrison would
nominate Attorney General Miller to sue
oeed Judge Jackson. However desirous
the President may be 70 mahe Mr.. Miller a
circuik judge he is not expected to violate
the tradition which makea residence in the
circuit the necessary qualification. Indiana
is in Judge Gresham's circuit. 1t is not i'm
probable that some Kentucky republican
like William o. Bradley may 0a appointed
Judge Jackson's successor
