Republican Convention as a can- didate for the Presiden The Sve Forr case was decided in the Uuited States District Court’ at Nashville crdsy, after a long snd tedions period of litigation, covering over ten years, and, cu- riously enough, the Government was victo. rious, being awarded a judgment for $24,000, the amount of the bogus claim which Forr succeeded in working through Congresa, Fx-Gov. Cuntiy, of Pennsylvania, hnstons to sunounco that he will not accept the nom- ination for Governor from the Domocrats if it should bo tendored to him, aa he does not consider that his namoe would sdd any strengtl to tho ticket. As the Republicans of the State have been of this opinion for several years, it only remains for the Democrats to acquiescs and wake it unanimons, The end of all the blustor and impudenos of the Sioux Chiefs in Washington will be, it i said, a tirm ultimatum on the part of the Government to this offect : The sbandon- ment by the Indians of the principal. part of their hunting-grounds in Nebraska, and the manngemont by the Chiefs of the praliminary datails necessary to secnro the assept of the tribes to the cossion of z portion of +the Black Hills country. Having travorsed the gamunt of vilifieation and nbuse, Judge PorTen yostordlay fell back upon the threadbare theory of blaokmail, long since abandonsd and wholly disavowed by Mr. Bescnsmr himself. What possible good can result from the rosurrection of this dead-and-buried reminisconco of tho earlior stages of tho trinl, bofore tho plan of the de- fense was fully developed, Porren may know; 10 ono elso can conceivo. Its only merit is its conaiatency with the rest of the harangue. 1t is only necessary to say, in apswer to those newspapers who criticise the publicity of tha procecdings in the inquiry as to the mental condition of Mra, LixcoLy, that such publicity was unavoidable. TUnder the laws of this State no person can be committed to an insane asylum or hospital unless upon tho verdict of a jury upon ovidence presented in open court, and in the prescnce of the person whose sanity la questioned, to whom thia Court nasigns counscl, if none bo selectod by bimself, The pnblic trial was therefore a legal necessity, and could not have been evolded.

THE ROMAN CATHOLIC LAW OF MARRIAGE, A coso of libel or slander recently institut- od in Boston, in which & Cathiolic priost of Chelsen, Mnss., ia charged with dofaming pri- vato charncter, cannot fail to attract genoral attention. The plaintiff, Ropent C, FaNNING, allegos that in 1878 Lo wou lawtully married by & civil magistrats; that on tho 9th of No- vember, 1878, the dofendant, the Rev, Jayes McGrxw, in church and jn the presonco of & large congregation, said: “There havaboen parties that have gone and got marred out of the Church, and thoss parties are liviag in mortal sin, Twill call thair names to you—Ronsar . Pawntng, Jr,, and CArnantaz Muneur;* and, at- tor eslling sundry otlier names, the defandant sald s “hese partion Towat come altar snd give publfe satiafaction;® thst on the 21d of Navewmbor the defendant publicly, faleely, sad ma. Hiclously spoke of tie pIAIBUI aubstantially aa follows: “Jonx JFamixg, or Bosear,or whatever bis name 19, has gono tolive with that womap, iy living 1n sin, a0d T will csll thelr uames every Sunday untl they coma befora the allar aud give publio satlsfsction, ‘Thesa partics will be coming to ma by sad by with thair bastards for mo to christen.” Thaton of about the 30th day of August, 1874, the defendant in church and in the presence of the congregsilon secused the plaintiff substantially as follows : * I hiave heord that & coupls hiave gone and got married out of the Tarish, and {f they do not come and sea me befora next Sun. dxy 1 willcall their names from the altar, 1ihought the scandal of & year 3go was enough to learn them a Issson; they will run to nelghboring prissts with a lls in their mouths, or, like GARLAND'S s0n and FANNING (meaujug Faxying, this plaintiff), who went to & aweop of the town, down at the square, who are nnlsw. fully msrried and living in ain, and they eannot sp- proach the ralls of this altar until they have given pub- Lo satiafaction,” The defondant has filed a plea that, if he spoko the words alleged, they were spoken by him in his eapacity and by virtue of his authority as parish priest and spiritual di- rector of the plaintiff; that ho hada full spiritual and ecclesinstical authority over him and his wife to disapprove, condemn, and censuro, privately and publicly, the plaintiff and his wife for any violation of the teach. Ings, dostrines, laws, rules, and discipline of the Church, and had the full ecclesiaatical and spiritual guidance, care, direction, and toaching of them ; that the words alleged to havo been spoken by tho defondant, if they were spoken by him, were on information, evidence, and belif on the dofend- ant’s part that the plainti¥ and his wife had violatsd the doctrines, laws, rules, teachings, aud usagee of the Roman Cathollo Church by being married outaide of the Church and by some person other than a regularly ordained priest of tho Ohurch, in grosa violation of its dootrines, laws, rules, ‘usages, and teachings, and to the great scandal and infury of the mombers of tho parish and church, and torthe great detriment of the plaintiff and bis wife, as the dofondant be. lieves, and is bound by the obligations of his offica to teach, as the pastor and pricst, and s tho plaintiff and his wifo were membors of the church at the time of the marriage and aver ince, well knew, and that at the time of their marrisge, for a long time previously and over giuce, have claimed to be members of the church and parish, and to be subject to the dootrines, tenchings, rules, nsnges, and discipline of the Church, and subjected them- selves to the sams, ‘This plen of courss ralses several fasues. First, whether the parish priest has the ecclo- sinstical authority over hiw parishioner and Lia wife to censure them publicly and pri- vately, for violations of the doctrine aud dis- cipline of the Church, Hecond, whether this authority, if it oxisted at all, is not subordl. nata to the civil law, which docs not permit this publio socusation of perzan of indecenoy or immoral conduot, Third, bad the plain. tiff and hiswife ¢ violated the dootrines, laws, and rules of the Roman Catholio Ohurch by being married outside of the Church and by somo person othor then a rogularly ordained priost of the Church "? Mr, GLaDSTONE, in his famous publication attacking Papal infallibility and other doc- trines of the Catholio Church, drew from n numwber of the most eminent writors and theologians of tha Church in Lngland elab- orate roplies, In these roples, It was argued that he hiad misundorstood the actual teaah- ings and dootrines of the Church in several in- stagoes. Thus, refening o the law of e before tue THE CHICAGO Catholic Church on the subject of murringe, he said that the non-Roman marringes in En. gland do not at present fall under tho foul epi- thots of Romo, Not because the English peo. ple marry under the sanctions of religion,— for the Pope holds such (Protestant) marrisgos purely civil in their charnctar,—but for the technical resson that the disciplinary decrces of the Council of Trent are not canonically in force in Englond. If tho decrees of the Council of Trent bo declared in force in Eugland, then, Mr. GLADRTONE Argued, overy marringe in the English Chureh will, accord- ing to the Catholio doctrine, bo ‘‘w fllthy concubinage.” "o this arraignment Dr. Nrzwauy, in his reply, eays: ers Mr, GLADSTONT seems Lo consider that there ate only two woys of marrying accordiog to Oatholio tesching: be omits s third, in which we consider the essence of the sacrament to ls, Ifo pesin of clvil marrisge, and of marriage under the “sanctions of religion,™ by which phrass ho seoms to mean marsiage witha rite snd s minliter, But b In aleo a retigious marrisge if the parties, withiout a pricst, by s mutual act of consent, aa in the presence’ of God, marry themselves; and such & vow of each to the other s, according (0 our theology, rexly tha couatituting sch, tho mattor and form, the sacrament of manlsge, That is, he omits the very contract which wa specislly csll marriage, Ho then proceeds to a specific denial of the sovoral clauses of Mr, Grapsronz's obsorva- tion on this subjact, using the following lan- guage ¢ Mr, GLADKTONE saya ¢ our matriages are, in the eys of the Pope, purely -clvil marriagen” Just the re. verse, speakingas he fr_of Church of England mar- risges. They are consldored, in the case of bapiized ‘persons, mcramental marriages, In reply to the statement that Protestant marriages are only valid because the decrees of the Council of Tront are not in force in England, Dr. NEWAAN Bays : This In not s0; T quota to thie point two sufctent authorities, Bt. ALTONSO Liaton: and Archbishop Kzxmicr, Speaking of ibe clandestinity of marrisge (Wit is, whon it s contracted without parish prieat and witnesses) anan impediment toits validity, St. ALroxso says: “ As regards non-Catholics (infidels), or Catholics who live in non-Catholfo districts, or whers the Cotinct] of Trent has not boon received, , o such a marriago 1s valid¥ Even then, thougn the Qlscipling of Trent waareccived in England, still it would pot coars 10 be & Protestant eountry, and there- fora marriages in Proteatant chiarches would Lo valid, Heroe, thon, we have this high authority, St. Avroxgo, and Dr, Kzxnicx, tho late Arch- bishop of Baltimore, indorsed by Dr. Nzw- MaN, to the offect that all marriages between baptized porons, betwoen non-Catholics, or Catholics who live in non-Catholie countrics, or where the decrees of the Council of Trend have not been recaived, aro, according to the Catholic Churely, valid and sacramental, evon when contracted without the presence of the parish priest and witnessos. Another writer, **a monk of Bt Augus. tino's,” whose pamrphlot is republished by the Catholio Pablication Society of New York, in discussing the Syllabus, dovotes considerable space to the subject of Christinn marringe. Ho nses tho following language : Hence, svery marriage between baptized Churistlans, if vuldly cautracted, Is, 1740 fisolo, & sacramont, although gono throngh withous any oiterior religlous rits or curemony, The Church, ho says, however, claims the right of imposing conditions, and, among theso conditions, one which binds in most “gountrics of TFurope is, that marringes among Catholica are Invalid unloss mado in prosenca of tho parish priest and two wit- nosses. Tho sbsonco of thess constituto a nullifying impediment to the validity of tho rontract “in the countries aforesnid.” As the civil magistrate is not recognized as sup- plying thoe placa of the pastor, civil marringos betweon Catholies are held to be invalid until aubsoquontly ratified befors the priest. The same writer then confirms Dr. Nawsux thus: Anothor exampls of the cavtion used by the Sea of Rome . . ia sesn {n the fact that, after thres cen- turios, she stlll sllows tho decrse of Trent, which makes clandestive marriages invalld, to remain nn- ‘publiausd, and, tuerefore, aot in force, in & large por- on of the Catholls world, Hencs marriages even bs- fiwaen Catholizs, Withont witneases or any sacrod rite, are, though unlawful, valid, and, of courss, sacra- ‘mental, in England, Bcotland, Denmark, Sweden, Nor- way, parts of Germany, Switzarland, Americs, sto. From this it would appear that the doc- trines, laws, and usagea of the Catholio Qhurch do not require that marringes bo- tween Catholics in the Unitod States aholl be mado in the prossnce of ths parish priest and witnessea; and it furthor appears that marriages without thees attondanta ere both valid and sacramontal, and that the comments thereon by the priest at Chelsca were scan- dalous, libolons, snd unsuthorized, even from an ecclesinstical standpoint, THE TAX-LIST, The publication a fow days ago of the tax- list of Cook Connty, making a small volnme of 144 pages of a nowspaper, has excitod ouriosity and eriticlam in various quarters. The St. Louls and Cincinnati papors espe- cially find on exouse for pronouncing Chi. ongo to bs bankrupt. plair: the mattor, Iri Chicago the custom always hes beeu, and, we supposa always will be, to postpons payment of taxos until as Iate a date as tho low allows. Hence, what is technically called the ** delinquent™ list is in fact an almost Titersl transcript of the Assessors’ books, or 8 oopy of the taxdiat. This particular list was for all the lands in Cook County, which county is of respectable torritorial dimenajons. The law requires the enumeration of each plecs of land by the xmallest subdlvision to wbich it has boen roduced. During the last four years, and especially within the last two years, there havo beon large traots of land in the county laid off in village and town plats, with tho subdivision into town lota, Tho growth of this buslness may be ssen by the following comparison, The fignres ase for the whole county, inclading Qhfcagot A fow words will ex- 1873, 1874, Impraved Tota.,.

The assossment for the present year will show in the tax.list of 1876 an incarease ‘possibly of 20,000 town lots over that of 1844. This county is destined to be a densoly-populated district, a continu. ous town or villiige, peopled by a hardy and industrions people. It 13 so wall provided in all divections with, railways that the mejority of peoplo doing husinoss in this city will rs. side beyond the niuniclpal lmits in one or tha othor of the tliirty and more villages now rapidly filling up, When that time comes, the tax-lst, unless some legal change be made, will have fka present dimensions in. aressed ten-fold, Tt will b sesn {fhat between flay, 1878, and May, 1874, the biumber of Improved lots was /Treopone TmroN, who *would have beon TRIBUNE: WEDNESDAY, MAY 26, 1875. nereased 8,080; in othor words, there wero that number of lots improved by the erection of stores or dwellings, Estimnting theso at an aversge of $6,000 each, they cost $18,- 480,000, which i doing pretty well for a bankrupt people, right in the midst and fol- lowing & financial pani specnlntors upon the oternal fitness of things and the essentinls of subjective applicability of the correlation of foraes to the Contenninl show, in such manner as to convines them of their tamerity in bearding the metaphysician in his den and the transcendentalist in his hall, It is to bs hoped the Philadelphin cheek and Centennial impudence which would set to philosophy the tasks that any boor or clown can do haa beon rebuked before this U, THE EBONY EX0DUS, Who is tbo now Moses? Where is the Promised Land to which he will lead the negroes of Tennerseo? ANDREW JomnsoN tried to play the part once, but his dusky fol- lowers objected to swinging around the cir- clo, and A. J. lost all interost in thom. Dut vow his successor has arisen. As yet he is nameless, but his ability is plain, for ke has bumbugged the wiole black population of Tennesseo. The Emigration Convention at Nashville has ended its sexaions by adopting, almost unanimonaly, A recommendation that every negro in Tennesseo should emigrate to gome other State; has formed a Board of soven Commissionors to supervise the goneral oxodus; and has sont three men to explore BEECHER CASE BILLINGBOATE. The Brecrrn scandal, during its trial, has doveloped many grave bronches of proprioty, but it the opening speech of Judge PonTes to the jury in bobalf of the defondant is to be » sntoplo of what we ore to expect {rom this time on, it will be n mattor for publie con~ gratulation when the case oloses, whatever its jksuo may bo, The opening of this case un- loosed a river of corruption.

For nearly a wock hohas poured npon them a torrent of personal sbuse and broken through all liconso in his denunclations, Nothing in all this wilderness of words can bo construed into an argument or the merits of the casa, and those who have followed his speech have beon disappointed in this regard, Whatever may bo tho issue of this ense, whether BrecHzn be innocent or guilty, one thing is certain t that Mr. Ponrus, whose ex- perience upon the Bench should have taught him courtesy, is playing tha role of a legal bully. Hia plea, it it con be called a plea, does not do credit to his intellectual ability. His logic which could propound such drivel a3 this to & jury—* Did Mr. Brecmen write thig? If ho did, which did be mean, God or that it was really unsafo, at times, to speak ogalnst it. A tomultuous mob filled the hall {n which the Convention sat, and howled down avery speaker who failed to admit the imperative necessity of doing a very foolish thing, The platform of the Conventionis vorbose, but it makes soma cherges Against Tonnesses whites that degerve attention. It rsserts that the present condition of the ne. gro is worse than it was soon after the War; that he s exposed to outrage, insult, and mur- der; that he can find no justice in the courta; that bo has been donied tho right to vote, or has been forced ‘‘by pistol and knife” to vote in opposition to his convictions; that he has pot sufficient school advantages; that the introduction of sonvict Inbor on thefarms and railroads and in tho mines has doprassed wages below the starvation-point; and that the whites are responsible for all thess things. Whon the partisanship and proju- dice has becn taken out of this catalogue, onough romains to show that tho blacks have been substantinlly wronged in many cases, Doea it follow, then, that they should run away?
