OLTiIOUC*. , , it , .
Pams, Anri! 29.—A bill determining the legal
status of tbo 0;d Catholics has boon framed by
n committee of the PriiHfdan Chamber of Depu
ties. It declares them entitled to share in the
ttflo of lloman Catliokcchuichos and cemeteries.
In places containing several churches an »P*
port'oument mav bo made between tuo -two
bodies. Where the Old Catholics am In the
majority Iboy will bo assigned tbe chief church,
or bavo a right of choosing when they will
uflo tbo common church. If tbo bolder of a
benefice Joins them bo will remain In posses
sion. and on a vacancy arising will bo sue*
coedod by another Old Catholic. W here there
ato several benefice*, a divlolon may bp made on
a vacancy arising In accordance with the relative
mimboiH of tbo two parties, Other cccles.aatl
cal revenaos will also bo shared according to
nurobois. If tbo OU Catholics become the
majority In any place and tbo number of lloman
Catholics becomes inappreciable, the former
may have tho full cojovmont of tbo revenues.
Old Catholic congregations oro peimiUod to
fornvsociotica for religious purposes. The Old
Catholics In Germany. according to the
(/Hirers, which profenaeu to quote the Blo.ui.cn
of Prof. Schulte, of Bonn, number 80 con
gregations, consisting of 37.C71 members. It le
to bo presumed that if the bill passes, tbo 1 rus
sian. like tbo Swiss lloman Catholics, will refuse
to hold eoivicos hi cburcbos the Joint use of
which Is allowed to tbo Old Catholics. At Bern©,
the former, scorning to enter a building pro
|.m“d bv thoir rivals, leceutlv obtained rorrais
eion to colobt ato mass in tho French Protestant
Cbiircb; but this arrangement, if over car
ried out, has been abandoned, for tho
Pans Ultramontane papers are now warn
ing tbolr leaders against spending
a Sunday at Boruo on tbo ground
that there le no Catholic service. One of
them goes farther, and recommends Catholics
not lo visit the town at Ml, suggesting that tho
hotelkeepers, who aro very strong there, wUI bo
peculiarly sensitive to this modo of reprisals. It
may ho added that tbo Central Committee of the
Liberal Catholic Association of Switzerland has
dcciaod lo convoke tho first Sjmod of the Svmbb

THE ASBEMDLT.
Pams, April 29.—The Permanent Committee
of iho Assembly mot to-day at Versailles under
iho Presidency of Iho Duo d'Audiffj 01-Poequlor.
No member of tbo Government was present, no
notice having been given of a bldrlo question.
The President enid no had forwarded to each
member of tbo Committee a statement showing
nbat bufllnosa the Assembly had transacted eiucu
It mot in February. 1871, and the business still
before U. It had conaidcrcd 1,300 bills or pro
posals. of which 938 had boon adopted. 74 re
jected, and 118 withdrawn. Of the re
mainder. 78 had been referred to Spe
cial Committees, 30 to Initiative Commit
tees and 18 to Committees on matters cf
local Interest. Four hundred and ton Com
mittees had boon appointed since the Assembly
mot— namely, 289 Committees charged with con
sidering particular measures, 34 Initiative Com
mittees! 32 on Petitions, 82 on sohemoa of local
Interest. Don tho Budget, 1 on tho Army, lon
Decent!allzation, lon Pardons. 4 on.Accjonts,
aud 0 Committees of Investigation. It would bo
for tho Assembly to determine tbo order of fu
ture business. M. Finest Picard thanked tho
President for tho trouble ho had taken, lie
thought the Bureau should confer with tho Gov
ernment and tho reporters of tbo Committees so
as to arrange what subjects should bo declared
•• urgent." It would bo impossible to dispose of
all of them before tho dissolution, and, though It
would bs for tbo Assembly to make tbo selection,
the Government might furnish Information
aud advice. Tho Duo d’Andiflrct-Pcsqaior then
nave bum© details with regard to tho inetallatloii
of tho two Chambers at Versailles. Several proj
ects had boon presented at the Bureau of the
Assembly. M. Queetel, architect to tho Palace
of Versailles, ptoposod temporarily to accommo
date tho Senate in the ’Salle doa Batalllos,
while tho Lower House would continue to occu
nv tho Theatre. Meauwhilo the buildings known
ks tho Orandoß et Pollies Bounce would bo
transformed into a Porliamont-hoauo for both
Chambers. It would take about throe years to
complete tho necessary works. and would cost
9.000,000f. Tho plan of M. do Joly, tho architect
of tho Assembly, would Boem to ho preferable.
It soomed right to allow r tho Bonsto to
chooßO its own locality. If it choeo tho
Theatre, it could outer upon • possession ot it
twontv-four hours after tho departure of tbo As
sembly. Tho Chamber of Deputies might bo ac
commodated in tbo hall which It was proposed to
erect in one of tbo courts alongside tho lluo do
la Blbltothonuo. and which could bo ready by
Dee, lif tho necessary works wore commenced
on Junel. Moreover. AI. ds July's plan would
cost only 1,500,000f. Tho Bureau of tho Assem
bly after the recess would demand a vole of
credit for tho purpose. Tho silting lasted only
Ministry and tho majority of tho As
sembly have accepted the principle of an early
dissolution of tho Aaaemhly; but the prospect w
yery unpalatable to the Logitimislm who ore ful
ly alive to tho fact that in no future Chamber
will thov form as strong a party as in tho present.
One of tlioir organs, accordingly, takes groat
polos to prove that tho business of the Assembly |
is too much in arrow to allow of a dissolution
this year, and it gives the loHoving hut of inoss
ures which have yet to bo consideredi ‘‘Bills
on tho Parliamentary Franchise, the Nomina
tion of Mayors and Functions of Municipal
Councils, Elementary Eduoatlou, the Repression
of Attacks on the Rights of the Assembly and

went pleasant enough, becaime uobody thought
anything vu wrong. I’rolty soon on old bliiul
negro man, with his wife, entered, thp car and
so«t«d themselves. Nothing was thought of
this proceeding, end toe Yico-Presloant, editor,
and lawyer wore making themselves ns comfort
able M the condition at that road would permit.
It was noticed that toe car in queetinu was of a
new Haleb, htuclsomolr upholstered, and Tory
neat. Tbo auptifo of the whole party may ho
imagined when tbo conductor came along and
very plainly told those distinguished gentlemen
that they must got ou», as that car was provided
eolely for colored people, and white louts were
not permitted to ndo In there.
Then tbo " Groat Commoner” snd Mr. Cllsby
and Col. I'oeples looked at each other, and then
at the conductor. Mr. Clißbyundertook loemlle,
and CoL Peoples looked confused. Mr. Stephens,
always ermal to any emergency, looked mou
• trout wise at Mr. Cli-by i wid Col. Peoples,
scratohlng his heatl, raid t “ Well, Mr. CUsby, I
havs lived a long time 5 1 have alwaysondeavorcd
to tote fair with my fellow-man; I pay my 1
honest debts, sud I love my country, but 1 never
expected to witnees this scone."
Mr. Cluby replied that God in His insoratablo
vrtadom and kindness had permitted him to live
oat (he time allotted to moat men; that he had
successfully conducted one of tha best doily

exhibiting refinement and taato in tbolr con

I write, “ Maplo Lawn." is very appropriately
named, the residence standing, as It does, at tbo
bead of a long, bloptnp avenue, lined with beau
tiful moplcs, and tbo grounds studded with
shrubbery of other kinds. Rut this is only one

of the worth? couple, and displayed it in eomo
beautiful and valuable present. The refresh

would some day crown their efforts, mid It has
come sooner ibau they thought, and many of

LYNCH LAW IN IOWA.
To tJu Editor of TU ChiMtio Tribunt:
Chicago, May 14.—1n your editorial "Hang
ing Id lowa," you close with this language :
"Legal murder has hecn abolished, and Illegal
nmrdor seems to have taken its place." It le er
ror to hold that the abolition of capital punish
ment lu lowa la the cause of mob-violence. You
seem led to this conclusion by the fact that acme
cases of lynch law have happeued since it vroa
abolished. That fact does not prove it. Judge
Lynch often presided In that State prior to that
time. In Clinton County, In 1867, two notori
ous borsc-lhleres wore hung by a moo, and
several others Invited to emigrate within a given
time. In 1853, the jail was forcibly entered,
sud a men charged with murder taken out by an
armed mob and executed. Again, In IBCS, the
same jell was again forcibly entered, and a
man charged with being a fence for borso-tblovea
takcu away, and that was the last seen of him
alive. His body was found in a stream some six
months after, about 5 miles from the Jail. I
might refer to many other similar cases, but
tbfso are eufllclent to refute the proposition that
mob violence cornea from tbe abolition of capi
tal punishment. In the case of Klrkham, ho
was not accused of a crime tnat was eveu visited
with capital punishment. Moo violence has a
different origin. I was a resident of Clinton
Countv for llftcon years, and I am sure the peo
ple of that county aro intelligent and law-abid
ing, and aa honest man is secure in his rights
among them. ... .
The explanation of these acts of violence is
easy to ooe who has lived there. It Is this i In
the early settlement of the State, it was terribly
overrun with horse-thieves, There wore no rail
roads or telegraphs, the settlements were far
apart, and a thief oould take a horse at night
and bo 40 miles away la the morning, sell.his
horse, and repeat bis crime, with very Utile dan
ger of apprehension. To a settlor In a new
country, ids tesm is Invaluable; It is
bread and meat to bis family: with
out it he can do nothing l everything de
pends upon it. To lose it, or oue hoiso, and
brosit up bis team, leaves him in a desperate
condition. It is easy to apprehend bow a
farmer, destitute of money to buy another,
would feel to go to his stable in tbe morning and
hod his steam etoloo. They became desperate,
