The impatience of the Orleans Princes and the imperious de- mands of Paris make the position of Presi- dent Thiers the reverse of comfortable, France Is not yet contented, and, therefore, the world is not in the enjoyment of peace. For some time to come France promises to be to the reading public a fruitful source of sen- gation, for we hear by the latest news that eighty of the extreme Legitimists in the As- sembly will secede from the ranka of the ly if the Duo d’Aumale is chosen its leader, France remains unhappy in its politi- gal party divisions. Yosterday’s Pulpit Products. Weak and feeble, comparatively, were the utterances of the pulpit orators yesterday whose discourses in substance we reproduce to-day. Mr. Hinckley, of Washington, preached to Dr. Bellows’ Unitarian congrega- tion upon the enthusiasm of faith and its effcots upon the Christian world. But there is very little of the article among Christians of the present day, and the result is of a kind with the cause—sickly and sentimental. Mr. Pull- man held up before his Universalist congrega- tion the most enthusiastic Christian of his own or of any other age—the Apostle Paul—as worthy of admiration and imitation. Dr. Hepworth filustrated the way in which the Lord measures men and nations and their ives and actions with the plambline of truth and righteousness, and metes out His rewards and punishments to them every day. And the sum of Bible doctrine and teaching, as givon in concise form by Dr Hepworth, is, make your lives plumb. Dr. Merrill Richardson, in elucidating the doctrine of the sovereign will of God, took Geliberate care to make plain the other doc- tine that He will do only that which is best for His creatures. And not one principle of God's government has changed since the days of old. It is the same now as it was in the days of Moses and the Pharaohs. And in the formation of the earth’s surface and the dis- tribution of man upon it the Doctor contended that God foresaw and designed the institutions which have followed, but that this foreknowl- edge did not at all interfere with man’s per- fect freodom of will and action to do as he pleased and to accept or reject the trath and peace, In 8t. Patrick’s Cathedral Rev. Mr. McNamee uttered gome wholesome advico and reproofs to business men who think that their absorption in bysiness is a sufficient excuse for neglecting the claims of religion upon them, It is, ho declared, a great mistake, And the Church is now calling men to repent- wnce, and is calling them from every walk and occupation in life, and the reverend father urged his impenitent hearers to forsake their bad habits and prepare for eternity. The Rev. William A. O'Neill, in St. Gabriel’s church, very beautifully and touch- ingly aroused the feeling of friendship in his congregation for Christ by showing somcthing of the depth and fulness of that feeling in the Saviour for us, and he cited ways and acts in bond by which we may show our sympathy with and friendship for the Master, and encouraged his people to procure the friend- ship of Obrist by faith and prayer. In the Greek church Father Bjerring made a few pomments upon the call of Peter and his readi- ness to follow Jesus, and the good Yather urged from Peter's example regular Iattendance on the ordinances of Ohris- flan worship and devotion to the faith, Bishop Loughlin, of Brooklyn, in answering the question to his large congregation in St, James’ Cathedral yesterday ‘“‘Who art thon?” paid, we are Obristians, and then explained somewhat in detail what that answer implied. And this was made mord apparent by con- trast with what we are of ourselves or by pature. Mr. Beecher hammered away again yester- day upon a favorite topic of his—the fatherly care of God over His creatures. God knoweth our frame: He remembereth that we are but ust, and on that knowledge is founded His love and pity for us. This love and pity was manifested in Christ dwelling among men and suffering for them. Sin, Mr. Beecher con- tended, is moral undevelopment, and its existence interferes with our spiritual growth and progress, We should not, therefore, blame men for that neglect of religion which springs from moral inability to do right. God waits patiently for the development of grace and truth m them, and we should wait also, The #lowness of moral development was {lustrated dy physical and physiological facts, and an appeal was made to the congregation to pre- pare the way of the Lord, whose natal annl- ‘vorsary is so soon to be commemorated. The Rev. Mr, Hill showed his Williamsburg Method- Ast congregation how the, law of Christian love applied to temporance, We wish he could apply it to intemperance and to alcoholic ven- ders also, Other pulpit discourses which will be found in the columns of the Heraxp to-day are commended as specimens of light reading, The Catacazy Question Settled. Wo aro glad to learn, from 2 reliable Washing- ton correspondent, thatthe Emperor Alexander has stepped in and settled the Catacazy ques- tion; that onr Secretary of State has received, from the American Minister at St. Petersburg, the intelligence that Minister Catacazy has been peremptorily recalled by Prince Gortcha- kof, the Imperlal Chancellor; that the Russian Legation at Washington has, by ordér of the Emperor, been placed fa charge of Mr. Boris Danzas, first secretary, antl a new minister shall arrive; that meantime the especial func- tions of Mr. Catacazy, os official chaperon of the Grand Duke Alexis, are terminated; thatin this capacity General Gorloff, or Mr. Bodlaco, ,| the Russian Consul General in thiscity, will act hereafter; that Mr. Catacazy will, as soon Q8 practicable, return to Russla, and that to this end he has advertised the sale of his household effects, horses, carriages and his whole establishment at Washington, Wo have, vathen, at last a complete settlement of this Gatacazy question, and no doubt to the satls- faction of all parties concerned; or, if not entirely to the satisfaction of the Minister recalled, the result is due to bis own mistakes, for which he has to bear the consequences. The important fact, Nevertheless, established in this settlement, is the fact that the motto of Hy the Czar in this business—‘ Let us have peace.” THe Fryanorat Conpirion of Viremnia, like that of South Carolina, is now occupying public attention, A despatch, which we pub- lish to-day, states that there is considerable excitement among the members of the Legis- lature in reference to the Fusding bill, which provided for the funding of about. twenty-five millions of dollars of the debis of the State, and'that a joint resolution passed the House on Saturday ordering a suspension of opera- tions under the measure, by a majority of eighty-six. It is also anticipated that the Senate will pass it bya large majority. This being accomplished, another resolution, it is alleged, will immediately be brought forward purporting to compel the suspension of the January interest on the bonds now issued, This latter statement may be only a move on the part of a clique for a special purpose, al- though the subject has, doubtless, been under consideration, The Funding bill is the main object for attack, the opponents to which al- lege that it was passed by fraud, and was really only in the interests of corrupt home brokers and for the brokors in Wall street.

The revolution contiuues to spread, The States of O»xaca, Nuevo Leon, Sonora, Durango and Zacatecas are in the power of the revolutionists, and the pronuuctamentos prevail in San Lui, Vera Cruz and luebla. President Juarez opened the session of Congress on the 1st inst. with a remarkable speech on the altuation. He said the country seems to be con- suming itself in unfruttiul struggtes, aad that mili- taryism again opposes the standard of legality, bringing back the time when a revolution siguilied the change of individuals in power. He counts upon the ald of Congress to suppress the seditious movement. The Speaker of Congress replied that Congress trusts that peace will soon be re-estab- lished, and that the repubiic Is satisfied witn the re- election of Juarez, excepting the states of Nuevo Leon and Oaxaca and the baudits who are robiing the conductas, Juarez has closed the ports of San Angel and Solina Uruz, He maintains a fearless attitude, and speaks confidently of orusutng the rebellion, Government troops to the number of 14,090 are pressing Porfirio Diaz, who has three or four thousand men, It is supposed, however, that Gen- eral Rocha’s retreat from Tehuacan is the begin- ning of the government reverses, as Diaz ts the best general. ‘rhe Cabinet remains unchanged. The people complain that the opposition is direcied more against the Cabinet clique than against Juarez, Delphin Sanchez, the President's son-in-law, has been sentenced to pay a fine of $2,500, or to be im- prisoned one year, for contempt of the judiciary, ‘The operations of the revolutionista under Douels aud Guerra are becoming extensive in the western States, Escobedo Mes resigned his Governorship and taken the field.
