WASHINGTON, January 21.-Th-* Renato
to-day engaged in the discussion o' tho bill
enlarging privileges of tbo Freedmen's Bu?
reau. Guthrie, of Kentucky, made a con?
servative speech, opposing it. He regards
it as an invasion upon the rights of the
States, calculated to irritate, rather than
oneil the feeling of the people.

NEW YOKH, January 20.- The steamship
Nova Scotian has arrived, willi dates to

The Popo received the congratulations
of the French army on the first of January.
He returned thanks, and said it would pro?
bably be the last time that he would be?
stow a blessing on them. He feared the
enemies of the Church would come to Rome
after th J denature of the French troops.

Washington News and Rumors.
Some of the Republican members
from Indiana are growing tired of the
wrangle about negro suffrage, and do
not hesitate to say that, if applied to
that S' ate, it would lose the ai every
Congressional district excepting that
of Mr. Julian.
Thadi Stevens' sudden anxiety to
repeal so much of the Congressional
test-oath as prohibited Southern at?
torneys from pructising in the South
created much surprise at the time,
and has led to much discussion since
among those not fully in the secret.
It seems that a small caucus of the
faithful met at Mr. Chase's, on Satur?
day evening, where the whole subject
was informally discussed. Judge
Chase ia understood to have said that
the law was clearly against the oath ;
that the question now before the Su?
preme Court involved the whole prin?
ciple, and must soon be decided, and
recommended the course pursued by
Stevens on the following Monday as
the' best method for relieving him
from the necessity of making a disa?
greeable decisiou, and the party from
possessing a most unwieldy elephant.
The Committee on "Ways and Means
are reported to be by no means har?
monious concerning what is popularly
termed Secretary McCulloch's bill on
financial affairs. Many of them are
opposed to giving him the authority
to go into foreign markets for loans.
It is difficult to see how this can con?
flict with sound policy. Our bonds
will inevitably find their way abroad,
and the only question to decide is,
whether the Secretary shall negotiate
them himself on the best obtainable
terms, or allow them to pass through
bankers and brokers as middle-men.
The correspondent of the New York
Herald writing from Fortress Monroe
says : The search is still continued on
land and on shipboard for persons
formerly in the rebel service and be?
lieved to have any complicity in the
alleged plot to secure Jeff. Davis his
freedom without the authority or
sanction of the Government. It is
probable there will be no let up in
these inquisitorial researches until an
order to such effect comes from the
War Department. General Miles and
the military force garrisoning the
fort, I feel very certain, would rather
like the coming of a rescuing force,
and prefer not to advertise their prior
knowledge of the possible arrival of
such an expeditionary party. Though
the victorious wreaths encircling the
brows of our brave soldiers do not
weigh heavily, and though grim
visaged war is more agreeable with a
smooth than with a wrinkled front,
a little excitement of this kind would
relish intensely and set the blood
tingling with lively and pleasurable
audacity. There is this one pleasant
feature in the case-that if no rescu?
ing party does show itself, the excite?
ment stirred up by it has cleared the
post and its preci^'?ts of many having
no business here and no claims to be
I here. I refer, of course, to the edicts
expelling those formerly in the rebel
service from the Government depart?
ments, and forbidding the employ?
ment of any such in future. It has
long been freely spoken of as an un?
pardonable shame that such persons
should be allowed to be employed
here to the exclusion of Union sol?
diers, whose past glorious records in
the field and scarred and maimed
bodies entitled them to these places.
But nepotism was fast getting its
sway, and it needed just stich emer?
gency and stringent action to put it
down. It is a blow in the right direc?
tion. AH loyal and rightly-minded
ones are glad of it.
Thc correspondent of the Phila?
delphia Ledger, of the 17th, says:
Certain parties are endeavoring to
make it appear that because the
Intelligencer has lost the War Depart?
ment advertising, it is no longer in
the confidence of the President. This
is an error, as the advertising affair
and its withdrawal was purely a mat?
ter between the proprietors and the
Secretary of War, the Executive him?
self being as foreign to the withdrawal
a's Napoleon or Queen Isabella.
I hear .to-day that the Supreme
Court is a 1 io upon the question of
the constitutionality of the test-oath.
It was supposed that Reverdy .John?
son's able argument before the Court
in the ease of Mr. Garland would
have secured at least a preponderance
of votes in favor of granting the
I petition of his client to be admitted
to practice without taking the re?
quired oath, but if rumor speaks
correctly, it failed of its intended
effect. Mr. Garland, and ail others
interested, must, therefore, look to
Congress for relief, and the impres?
sion is that they will not look in vain,
seeing that a bill repealing tho oath
is already through the House. The
President stands ready to sign the
bill whenever it shall be the pleasure
of the Senate to pass it and transmit
it to him.
HORRIBLE CASE OF CANNIBALISM AT
SEA.-The brig C. M. Carver, Cap?
tain Treat, from Georgetown, S. C.,
with lumber for Searsport, was dis?
mantled and filled with water in n
gale on the 21st ult. On the 31st ult.,
she was fallen in with, seventy miles
from Cape Ann, by the schooner
Emma, and the crew taken off, being
nine days on the wreck without food
j or water. One man was killed when
j tho masts went over, and the steward
> died on the 30th, of starvation, and
' when rescued, the crew were living on
! his body.-Mobile Tribune. #
In Missouri and Arkansas there
r are thirty-two negro schools, wit!,
forty teachers and 2,827 scholars.
Important from Mexico.
The announce ruent comes from New
Orleans that the armed force from
Texas, which captured from the Mexi?
can Imperialists the town of Bagdad,
on the Rio Grande,- as described in
yesterday's Herald, consisted chiefly
of the 118th United States colored
infantry, under Colonel Davis. The
capture was effected on the morning
of the 5th inst., and it is said that the
negroes immediately after commenced
plundering the place and robbing the
citizens, shooting those who refused
to deliver their money. Three hun?
dred Imperialists were made prisoners,
about half of whom joined the Repub?
lican service, and were detailed to gar?
rison the town, the captors imme?
diately disappearing. The American
General Crawford was in command of
it, and General Escobedo was on his
way thither. The accounts indicate
that the former was about starting on
another expedition. General Weitzel,
at the request of Escobado, sent two
hundred men from Brownsville,
Texas, to Bagdad, to preserve order.
The shelling of the town by a French
vessel, which was kept up during the
6th inst., did not result in relaxing in
the slightest degree the hold upon it
of its new garrison.
By way of Vera Cruz, we have re?
ceived intelligence of Republican
successes of the most important cha?
racter. Toluca, the ancient capital of
Mexico, a fine city of twelve thousand
inhabitants, has been captured by the
Juarists under Munoz, and so critical
is the emergency that Marshal Ba?
zaine, with all the Imperial troops at
hand, had started from Mexico city
to attempt to retake the position.
There is, further, a rumor, apparently
well founded, that a couple of valua?
ble silver mines have fallen into the
hands of the Juarists. The fighting
in the interior, of which we now re?
ceive details, appears not to have re?
sulted so favorably for the Republi?
cans, but all accounts unite on the
point that the position of Maximilian
is a most critical one. Arising out of
the disturbed state of affairs, an at?
tempt bad been made to assassinate
the Imperial Minister of War- but the
plot failed, and the would-be i'.--sassins
were arrested.
President Johnson's message had
been received in Mexico city, as in
France, with a feeling of intense re?
lief that war was uot to be imme?
diately made upon the Imperial Go?
vernment. The Vera Cruz papers,
howe vnr, regard the outbreak of hos?
tilities between the United States
and France as inevitable, and only
postponed for a time.

Five Priests Indicted In Missouri.
We have been surprised to read in
the St. Louis Republican, of a recent
date, that five priests-Fathers
Knowd, McGerry, Ryan, O'Reagan
and O'Donoughoe, gentlemen who
constituted the faculty of St. Vin?
cent's College in that State, distin?
guished for their learning and refine?
ment-have been indicted by a grand
jury, and called to appear before a
criminal court to answer to the in?
dictment which has some reference to
the "test-oath," so-called, the consti?
tutionality of which is now before the
Supreme Court of the country. When
the cases were called, the reverend
fathers petitioned for a postponement
until next term in order that they
might continue teaching the Semi?
naries until next June. They were
accordingly held to bail in $1,001)
each.
The arrest was made on a Saturday
night, but they all gave bail to ap
pear on Monday, and the arresting !
officer left. The people on Sunday
were in the highest degree excited,
and it might have required but a
word to arouse them to armed resis?
tance. But the good priests used
their influence in another direction.
It is a fine and beautiful commentary
on the spirit of the Catholic religion
which counsels obedience to law and
authority. The Father instead of com?
plaining and exciting feeling already
too much aroused, set them an example
in the other direction. The church,
at the 10 o'clock mass, was densely
crowded. After the Gospel (which
Avas about John in prison) the officiat?
ing priest preached a beautiful ser?
mon on patience. He showed to his
congregation that they should not be
angry against the people who had
i caused the trouble, and in the end
commanded the Catholic portion of
the inhabitants, by all the authority
he had over them, not to say or do
j anything that could get up an excite?
ment.
Father McGerry, one of the parties
arrested, is described as a venerable
old man over seventy years of age,
the friend of Bishop Dubois, the
second superior of Mount St. Mary's
College, Emmetsburg, and for many
years pastor of a church at Washing?
ton. His memory is full of recollec?
tions of the past time, stories of the re?
volution, in which his fathers fought.
He is a man whom all love and revere
for his goodness and kindness. It was
, a strange thing to see that fino old
man stand at the bar of a criminal
court, charged with a crime unknown
1 to the laws, It is to be hoped that
; before the cas? is called for trial in
. June, better counsels will prevail,
i and that these unoffending and
[ loyal priests will be permitted tc
[ depart unmolested to pursue theil
i mission of love, charity, and good
will to men.

LOANS TO SOUTHERN PLANTERS.
Tb is is a matter of such great impor?
tance to the whole country that we
advert to it again, in connection with
the presence in this city of Doctor
Samuel Bard, late Superintendent of
Public Education in the State of
Louisiana, and long connected with
the South-western press; and who is
now here as the representative of
many plantera whom the war has left
without the means necessary to the
successful planting of cotton.
The Southern lands are as rich as
ever; laborers may be obtained, and
in many instances agricultural imple?
ments are not wanting. But the money
wherewith to pay the laborer, to feed
and clothe him, to stock the planta?
tion, and to meet its other current
expenses, is wanting. It is this want
which Northern capital should seek to
supply, so that the whole energies of
the Southern planters may be success?
fully directed to the production ol
cotton and other Southern crops.
This will cause our shipping to whiten
every sea; stimulate every branch ol
the national industry; establish thc
foreign exchanges in our favor; ena?
ble the country to sustain, uninjured,
the burden of the national debt, anc
avert all danger of a financial crisis.
A full ciop of cotton will do more ti
restore the prosperity of the country
than all the political speeches that
can be made in a decade.
It is for the National banks and th?
capitalists of the North to effect thes<
good results, and they should do it a
once. "We are glad to learn fron
Doctor Bard that he-is succeeding ii
the object of his visit. He will reman
here a few days longer, and may b
seen at No. 71 Broadway.

SOCIAL LIFE IN WASHINGTON.-Th
National Intelligencer of the 17th says
The reception at the Executive man
sion last night was one of the mos
brilliant we have ever seen. Abou
9 o'clock, the throng in tho red, blue
and green rooms became so grea
that the order was given for lightin,
the East room; and the opening c
that large and commodious apartmen
was a most satisfactory and effectiv
relief. It is evident that the ladie
of the President's family, in thei
evening "at homes," must expect t
be so besieged by troops of friend:
that all the public rooms will 1
drawn into requisition. From th
hour appointed until nearly 10 o'cloc
there was a steady flow of company.
Among those present were tl
ministers from England, Franc*
Russia, Prussia, the Netherlands, an
other members of the diplomat
corpsj some accompanied by tl
ladies of their families. The array ?
beauty and distinction from differei
quarters, of the nation, including oi
own city, was particularly noticed I
those most familiar with these r
unions.
About 9 o'clock, the President joim
his daughters in the red drawin
room, and received the sa uitions

crease, with the ease and affability
characteristic to him.
