WAR ON THE JEsuIrs.

They May be E.tir~ly Expelled From,
the Republic Of Menics.
HIpALeo.-The expulsion Of the Jeeu.
its from Mexico is causing much serious
thought among those having the welfare
Of the Republic at heart. The first blow
WAS struck by the expulsion Of the Jee-
uits in = college Of this city by Bishop
Monies de Oca, and the Jeeuite are out
OF power in San Luis Potoei and have
been ordered to leave at once. Bishop
de Oca has assigned no official reason for
the action. Matters have been in an
ominous state many months. Many ef-
forts have been made to bring peace
again in the divided ranks Of Gatholi.
cism, but have been unavailins. Just
how this will affect the Jesuits and their
interests in the remainder OF Mexico is
hard to foretell. II is freely predicted
that il lie the beginning Of the trouble,
and that this is the fret or'hreak Of .
deeply seated growing oppo iii, to Jee.
nit domination, which is lei in III psrts
Of the Republic. 1t lie though. .ne action
Of Bishop de Oca will be the sign for an
uprising in many parts Of the country
against the Jesuits, and that il they are
not expelled from the Republic they will
at least be shorn Of large part Of their
power.
