Ordinal Antonelll's Protest Against the In
vaalon.
From tfie Vatican, Sept. 20, 1870. Your
Excellency is well acquainted Willi the fact of
the violent seizure of the greater part of the
States of the Church made in June, 1850, and in
the September of the following year by the Gov
ernment now installed at Florence. Equally
matter of notoriety are the solemn reclamations
and protests of the Holy See against that sacri
legious spoliation; reclamations and protests
made cither by allocutions pronounced in Con
sistory and published in due course, or else by
notes addressed in the Dame of the Sovereign
Pontiff by the undersigned Cardinal Secretary of
State to the diplomatic body accredited to the
Holy See.
The invading Government would assuredly
not have failed to complete its sacrileirlous
spoliation if tho French Government, well in
formed as to its ambitious projects, had not
arrested them by taking under its protection the
city of Rome and tho territory still remaining
by keeping a garrison there. Hut, as a conse
, quence of certain compacts entered into between
tha French Government and that of Florence,
compacts by which it was supposed that the
conservation and tranquillity of the dominions
yet left to the Holy See would be secured, the
French troops were withdrawn. These conven
tions, however, were not respected, and in Sep
tember, 1867, some irregular bodies of men,
urged forward by secret impulses, threw them
selves upon the Pontifical territory with the
perverse desigu of surprising and occupying
Kome. Then it was that the French troops re
turned, and, lending a strong-handed succor to
our faithful soldiers, who had already fought
Euccessiuiiy against tne invasion, they achieved
on the plain ot Mentana the repression of the
audacious invaders, and caused the complete
failure of their iniquitous designs.
Subsequently, however, the French Govern
ment having withdrawn its troops on the occa
sion of the declaration of war against Prussia,
did not neglect to remind the Government of
Florence of the engagements which it had con
tracted by the convention specified above, and
to obtain from that Government the most formal
assurances on the subject. But the fortune of
war having been unfavorable to France, the
Government of Florence, taking advantage of
those reverses to the prejudice of the agreement
it had entered into, took the disloyal resolution
to send an overpowering army to comolete the
spoliation of the dominions of the Holy See;
although perfect tranquillity reigued throughout
them in spite of very active instigations made
from without, and in spite of the spontaneous
and continual demonstratltm of fidelity, attach
ment and filial affection to the august person of
the Holy Father that were made in all pans,
and especially at Rome.
' Before perpetrating this last act of terrible in
justice, tho Count Ponsa di San Martino was
Bent to Rome as the bearer of a letter written by
King Victor Emanuel to the Holy Father.
That letter stated that the Government at Flor
ence not being able to restrain the ardor of the
national aspiration nor the agitation of the
"party of action," as it is called, found Itself
forced to occupy Rome and the territory yet re
maining annexed to it. Your Excellency can
easily imagine the profound grief and indig
nation which filled the heart of the Holy Father
when this startling declaration was made to
him. Nevertheless, unshaken in the fulfilment
of his sacred duties, and fully trusting in Di
vine Providence, he resolutely rejected every
proposal for accommodation, forasmuch as he is
bound to preserve intact his sovereign power
as it was transmitted to him by his predeces
sors. In view of this fact, which has been brought
to pass nnder the eyes of all Europe, and by
which the most sacred principles of law and
right, and especially those of the law of nations,
are trampled under foot, His Holiness has eom-
i manded the undersigned Cardinal Secretary of
State to remonstrate and protest loudly, and the
undersigned does hereby, in the sacred name of
His Holiness, remonstrate and protest against
the unworthy and sacrilegious spoliation of the
dominions of the Holy See, which has lately
been brought to pass; and he at the same time
declares the King and his Government to be re
sponsible for all the mischiefs that have resulted
or shall result to the Holy See, and to the sub-
. jects of the Pontifical power, from that violent
and sacrilegious usurpation.
In conclusion, I have the command from his
Holiness to declare, and the undersigned does
hereby declare in the august name of his Holi
ness, that such usurpation is devoid of all effect,
is null and invalid, and that it can never convey
any prejudice to the indisputable and lawful
rights of dominion aud of possession whether
of the Holy Father himself or of his successors
in perpetuity; and although the exercise of
those rights may be forcibly prevented and
hindered, yet his Holiness both knows his
rights, aod intends to conserve them intact, and
re-enter at the proper time into their actual pos
session. command ot the Jloly Father, of the deplorable
event that has just taken place, aud rt the pro
tests and remonstrances which necessarily fol
low it, in order that your Excellency may be
enabled to bring tho whole matter to the i:uowl
edge of your Government, the undesigned
Cardinal Secretary cherishes the persuasion that
your Government will be pleased to take Into
its earnest consideration the interests of the
Supreme Head of the Catholic Church, now
and henceforward placed in such circumstances
that he is nnable to exercise his spiritual au
thority with that full liberty and entire lnde
nendenee which are indispensable for it.
Having now carried into effect the commands
of the Supreme Pontiff, it only remains that l
eubscilbe myself, etc.

The following appeal is signed by the leading
civil officers of the provinces of France which
bavn been overrun by the German armies, in
cluding the mayors of Brley, Roocourt, Joua-
Vllle, DalUiy, uuutuun-irii'VuniiniiB, omul
Marcel. Vlonvllle. Kezonvilte, Vernevllle. Ara-

and the Cure de Gravelotte:
B i o all neutral nations, and to all those among the
Xcil.'gertnts who have not suffered from a hostile in-
voslor In 70: We, Inhabitants of those part of
France which are occupied by the German armies,
Particularly the departments of the Moselle, the
en sr, and the Ardennes, ask assistance from yon
not that assistance which will involve the loss of
niorellvrs; we ask for aid to preserve onr exist
ence, not only at this moment, but at the establish
ment of peace. Most generous sympathy has been
thown towards the sick and wounded by those
whom we address; kindly hands have brought beat
ing balm to the direct victims of the terrible weap.
onsofwar; stit'iig hearts have Interposed to arrest
the scythe of the Angel of Destruction. But other
misfortunes, more remote, perhaps, but surely much
greater, are still ignored.
The people of France depend for their subsistence
upnD grain cultivated by themselves, and upon cat
tle whleh they raise. In the sections ot country
which have been traversed by tho French armtes,
there now remain none of the provisions which had
been gathered In times of peace. Our houses, our
barns, our stables are either burned down or pierced
by rannon-balls. The fields have been trampled
utder the feet of numerous legions. We have no
power to gather either the hay or the cereals of
autumn. All our draft animals, our beef cattle, our
cows, our sheep, our swine have been taken from ns.
Ail our farm-laborers are called to serve either as
soldiers of Frann,e or as wagoners in tho German
armies. We are deprived of ell means with which to
prepare the soil for seed for the crop of next season.
We have been rolibed even of our agricultural Im
plements and of our seed-grain. In many places the
earth Itself cannot be turned by the plow because
a cursed and horrible seed has already been sown
there immense numbers of humrn corpses. We are
at this moment face to face with the terrors of
lumper; famine and pestilence, during the coming
winter and spring, must certainly bo the sad conse
quences of the war. The cries of children, aiktng
their fathers for bread which they have not, a ready
fill the air, while the tears of widows and orphans
without shelter, falling upon the earth over which
these misfortunes hover, prevent the blood-stains
from drying.
5 on, our brothers of America, ought to know tho
desolation In the midst of which we an; now living;
jou ore rapidly rising from a similar misfortune.
Your country is naturally rich; ours Is naturally
poor. Our resources sustain no comparison with
jours. Our suffering, then, must be, ttiOugh such a
thing can hardly be expressed, more poignant than
yours las been. You, our brothers of (Jreat Britain,
know the comfort and safety of a country whore tho
"home of every man 1h a castle." You have not,
during many centuries, suffered the ravages of an
Invasion, l'icture to yourselves the destruction of
all your means of sustaining life, and then refuse, ir
that be possible, to assist, aud to assist without
delay, your neighbors who are perishing ! You, our
brothers of the enMre human race without except
ing even the victorious Germans, who, now that we
are conquered, cannot desire our annihilation we
beg you all to come to our rescue.
A GREAT KEIJELLION.
The Trouble In Northwestern Chlnit-900,-01)0
rtlen Enaaffrd.
The war in Europe has been regarded as
exceptional for the great armies engaged on
either side, but a conflict now ragiDg in Asia
has quite as large armies in tho fluid, though
scarcely anything is heard of it in this part of
the world. Reliable advices put the number of
Shen-sl rebels under Ma Ho Loons in the
northw estern part of China at 450.000 men, who
are opposed by IWO.OOO imperialist troops. A
rekin letter to the liong roug Mail savs that
the rebels are shut up in an island district
formed by the splitting of the Yellow River in
the extreme northwest of Shen-si, in Nlng Asia
Fu. They are shut in on all except the Kansuh
side, whence they procure amnio uDDlies both
for themselves and their animals, of which each
man has two or three. Foreign arms they obtain
Irom the western Mahomedan cities, but no
cannon; they are very plucky, and will kill as
long as they have a knife. The Imperialists are
expecting a supply of foreign guns and shells to
arrive in September; but they will havo little
effect, for though the rebel camp ia within
ran jre the imperialist gunners will not be able
to beat down the intrenchmcnts. LI Hung-
Chang has his headquarters at the capital of
Shen-sl, 250 miles from the rebels, at which
safe distance he directs the operations of the
imperialists. When a fight takes place Mu-Fu-Stan
always reports another victor'. The pack
mules, with grain for the troops, take twenty-
six clays to marcn across Shen-sl. My inform
ant started with 300 mules, and had only 70
when he reached his destination, tho rest
having been killed and eaten to piece out life
by the way. The mules always consume half
their load of grain on the way. Supplies for
the troops are drawn from Northern and East
ern bnen-sl. .Northern Shen-sl is spoken of
as depopulated. Solitary travellers are killed
and eaten. The troops secure themselves from
a similar fate by going in bands. Those of the
inhabitants who have not been either killed or
forced into the rebel or imperial hosts have fled
for safety to the charcoal pits among the hills,
whence they prowl about like wild beasts for
subsistence. My informant expects that the
rebels will hold their island pasition for two
years yet, unless the foreign guns scare them
out, which he docs not expect. He says they
have all the silver and gold of Kansun and
Shen-si with them, melted down into solid
masses the size of water kongs.
TROUBLE BREWING. '
Humors of a HlovfDifDt In tbe Senate Against
iresuieut urant.
A Washington despatch to the Cincinnati
Commercial gives some particulars about a
strong opposition to the administration that,
it says, is expected to develop itself at the
next session of Congress. President Grant, we
are told, no longer acts.as in the first year of his
term, upon bis impulses aud according to his
views of right, bnt is more sensitive as
te the public opinion upon his actions;
reading the newspapers and consulting
prominent men more, to be guided la-his
course by them. It is added that it cannot be
lotger concealed, however, that (Jeneral Grant
is politically becoming the target of many un
friendly arrows, and he is becoming more anx
ious to please both the people and the politicians.
It was for this he appointed Morton; it was for
this that he removed Cox; and for this he will,
ere many months, remove both Akerman ana
Robeson. Tho course of the opposition to the
President is not fully understood, but it is ex
pected to be confined mote particularly to the
Senate, though it is not likely that there will
be any open rupture. Among those who are
named as displeased with the President
for various reasons are Senators Fen
ton, Osborn, Harris, McDouald, and
Robertson. Sumner is set down
ns unfiiendly on account of San Domingo, but
more on account of Motley's recall; and for the
latter reason Senator Wilson is called unfriendly.
'Ihe imbroglio between Grant and Schurz is said
to be assuming alarming proportions, while
Senators Spencer, Ross, Sprague, Fowler, and
others, for personal reasons, will always vote
against the President's personal interest. The
confirmation of the President's broiher-iu-law.
Kramer, ns Minister to Denmark, will be op
poked, as well as the promotions of Admirals
Porter and Rowan. The removal of Secretary
cox is assigned as one cause oi dissatisfaction
The despatch concludes:
"There are many Senators, sncb as Trumbull,
Sumner, and Ballard, who will not go out of
their way to vote for anything which the Presi
dent is particularly interested in, but will be
likely to do the reverse. As for Mr. Sumner
personally, he will accept tbe gage of battle
thrown down to him, and will take open ground
Senators for exercising their piivllege in voting
against treaties and appropriations. Is assuming
the same attitude towards Congress as that pre
sumed on by Andrew Johnson. The shrewd
politicians, such as Morton, Camerou, Chandler,
Williams, and Bterman may prevent a serious
difference between tbe Senate aud the Presi
dent, but at tbe present time the political hori
ion as seen from the capital is very cloudy."

storff, the Prussian Minister at London, says
that there will be no obstacle offered by him to
the French elections for members of the Legis

Provisional Government to the holding of such
election is wanting. He fears that Paris, mis

to receive and earnestly consider any proposi

ROYAL MTTIAL3.
The Marriage of the t rlaeess Ionise.
Mr. Vernon Ilarcourt, M. P. for Oxford, in
addressing the electors there, spoke of tbo ap
proaching marriage of the Princess Louise to
the Marquis of Lome. He said. "It so bap
pens that the young nobleman who is fortunate
enough to have secured the affections of the
Princess is a great personal friend, and, indeed,
a relation of my own. I happened to be staying
at the house of his parents at the lime the an
nouncement of the fact though then a secret
was first made. I happen, consequently, to
know that it is a marriage of tbe purest affec
tion; and I am sure that a matter so interesting,
both in its political and Its historical import,
nnce, Is one which will securo the hearty sym
pathy and approval of the English people. That
a daughter OI the Royal family should be bestow
ed upon a subject of the Crown is an event
which I believe has not happened in the history
of England for '200 years I do not believe there
is any man in England who will regret that the
Crown shonld be guided by a wise policy, and
thus have brought itself into a more close and
immediate relation with the people of tb I coun
try." The Observer says: "It is expected that
Parliament will be asked to present the Princess
Louise, on her marriage with the Marquis of
Lome, with the same dowry as that granted to
tne Princess Helena on her marriago to Prince
Christian of Schieswig-IIolsteln, namely,
.130,000, and an annuity of itiOOO. Although no
precise date has yet been announced for the

1EKRIBLK SUICIDE.
A German Kills fllmneir While In Bed with his
Wife.
" At about 1 o'clock fhls morning Herman
Schenlen, a Gorman cigar-maker, 43
years of nge, residing with his wife Amelia, and
his son Frederick, the latter aged twelve years,
on the first lloor of the tenement house No. 187
Chrystle street, committed suicide by
shooting himself in the mouth
while in bed with his wife. Schenlen
was reputed to be in good circumstances,
and bore an excellent character in the neighbor
hood as an industrious and sober man. Yester
day morning he had a slight quarrel with his
wife in regard to some money matters, but the
difference was settled amicably during the day.
and in the evening he retired to rest as usual
with his wife, the boy sleeping in au adjoining
room. At about one o'clock Mrs. Schenlen was
awakened by the report of a pistol close to her
head, resting on the pillow beside her husband,
ard felt a warm stream striking her face. The
frightened woman sprang from her bed, and light
ing a lump, a most horrible sight was revealed to
her gaze. Her husband was ivlng dead on the
bed with a portion of his skull blown entirely
away and the pillow covered with blood and
brains. A single-barrelled pistol was grasped
in his right hand, which was elevated at a right
angle to his face and the muzzle of the pistol In
his mouth. Death must have been almost in
stantaneous. No other cause but the dis
agreement with bis wife can be assigned for the
suicide. A'. Y. World to da;.
OBITUARY.
' John Ntanton ("Corry O'Lanua").
Yesterday morning, at his residence in Brooklyn,
died genial John Stanton, the "Corry O'Lanus" of
tbe lirooklyn Juwlc. His death was not unexpected,
atd be passed quietly aud easily away, like a tired
roan gliding from the toll of the day luto sweet
sliin'ber and happy dreams.
John Stanton was born In London November 4,
1832. At Jlie age of fifteen he came to the Culled
Hates, and after engaging in various associations in
New Jersey became a workman In a fireworks fac
tory In Williamsburg. From this new field or labor
lie was, so to speak, blown Into literature, perhaps
the only Instance ot the kind on record. Iu iav2 a
tenlble explosion occurred in the buildlng.by which
two lives were lost. Stanton, although much
frightened, was unharmed, and lost no time in rush
ing to the cilice or tbe W illiamsburg Timet with a
full report of the disaster. This was bis first essay
as a reporter, but so well pleased was tho editor of
the paper with the young tyro's work that he at
once engaged him as one of his staff.
Three years later he became an attache ot the
Brooklyn Vanle, and held his position on that jour
nal until his death, with the exception of about two
years, during which time he was Identified with the
lirooklyn Hews. He contributed frequently also to
the Covimercial Advertinert the Sunday Mercury, aud
other New York papers.
He first wrote as "Coiry O'Lanus," in February,
1604, tor tbe Sunday Mercury. Shortly afterwards,
however, he gave his whole time and attention to
the Kayle, and from that day almost np to the date
of his death the newsboys at the Fulton Ferry were
wont every Saturday to announce to the public the
"Full Account or Corry O'Lanus," much to their
ultimate proilt.
A few months ago Mr. Stanton's health began to
give way. and the proprietors of the bogle generously
onered him a fur.'ougu. He went to Florida, wheuce
he sent his usual weekly letter, until becoming con
vinced that bis life was fast ebbing away, he re
turned homo to die.
He leaves a wire and several children and a large
circle of devoted friends to mourn his loss.

Thursday, Nov. 3, 1S7U. (
The local money market continues quiet but
very steady at 50 per cent, on call and at
7(a)10 per cent, on choice mercantile paper.
The bulk of the business to-day, as for several
days past, is connected with the operations at
the Stock Board, which continue quite lively
and give occasion to a considerable shifting of
loans. The local mercantile demand is very
moderate, though full employment is given to
all the funds at the disposal of the banks.
(iold is still quiet, with a further- tendency
downward. Sales up to noon ranged entirely
between 110 and 110, opening and closing at
the lower figure.
In Government loans little is doing, but no
change of prices Is noticed worth recording.
The stock market was very active, and prices
show a further advance. City 63, new, sold at
102 and do. old at 101.
Heading Railroad was in demand and stronger;
heavy sales at 50. Lehigh Valley attracted
attention and sold up to 59. Oil Creek and
Allegheny was steady, with sales at 45. 53)

wissa preferred.
In canal shares there was some activity lu
Lehigh, which sold at
In bank stocks we notice sales of Common
wealth at 50.
Among tbe miscellaneous shares there were
sales of Pennsylvania Life and Annuity at 100
and Academy of Music at 100.

"Ihe gold market had been weak tn the rorenoon,
the price ranging from 111 to 111 ', with a few gales
at 111 Jf. The extra !e of gold very naturally pro
duced furtoer weakness, and the price rell oif tn

and reacted to 111, at which price the UUstsnle
took place. Tliegoll loan market w a easier and

"Tbe rate on call during most or the day ranged
from five to six per cent ror lo iu on stock aud
from four to five for loans on Government collate
ral. Towards the close 01 bunking hour there was
a brief but ae-tlvo demand at six per cent., and in
several Instances the borrowers paid seven per cent.
Discounts were uuchanired.
"The Government list was quiet except ror tho
