IJut instead of this, Straus: was summarily brushed aside to make room for Henry Ilawle, who is very little better known to the P.cpublicans of this State than he is to Ihe Ibrpul licnns of Illinois. It will nit do to say that he is a competent num. for Strang is also that and a gi eat deal more. Wa presume -tliero is not a county in the State in which there could not be found at least one Kcpnblican who is not just ns compe tent as llanle. But that is not the question about vhich we are talking. Party services, when associated with admitted fitness and capacity, demand recognition, and whenever the are sacrificed to the demands of expeeli cik v, which is onlv another name for secular laws which may be proclaimed. The new ecclesiastical laws of Prussia con- , tain provisions which are not enacted or obeyed elsewhere, and which militate against the law of the Christian Church. The bishops declare tint a friendly under- i standing with the secular power would have . lieen most welcome to them, and even at i this present moment they will be glad to j meet their antagonist, provided always the ; secular power does not propose terms con- j trariant to the fundamental rules of Chris- , tian religion. The bishops next point out j that their objection to the provision which foi bills the proclamation of "divine truth" 1 has been wilfully distorted by the writer of j the rescript. Nevei theless. the new laws ; do fo: bid such proclamations, as appears; from decisions of the law courts which aie j quoted. I lie bishops disavow the com plaint ascribed to them that the State- paid salaiies have been taken from the Ih- i man Catholic clergy at the very moment j when ministers of other denominations arc treated with inaiked and indiscriminate' liberality. They did not complain (hey only ventured to point out the effect which ! this unequal way r.f dealing must have upon ,' the Human Catholic population. The hish- j ops fuithermoi'c icpel the charge brought! against them that they have unbecomingly . appealed to the Kniperor for the rejection I of the inqc!idmg fresh laws. Every Prus- j sian is const itutionally guaranteed the right j of personal appeal to the King, and in us- ! ing their just right they have certainly not infringed the spitit of the constitution, see- ! ing that they have exercised it on behalf I and in the name of eight millions of the ! King's subjects. With equal indignation! do the bishops repel the accusation that i in Monroe county is estimated at thrce- lieetSSill H llltlir I IflllUiiillM ' iiwiin, M y. .... n, . . spc t abroad, ar-d th pern.ammrv of the. i qnaiters of a million, lo this sum must ' i i. ..,., n-ioeli l.ve be added 1 0.000 for bridges.

While the Bepublicans of Ohio have thus committed themselves to w hat the indical press of this State falsi ly call- five trade, the Republicans of iVunsyl v;ini;i worship the idol uf a protective tari if. ot ac tive part v devotion. No political party can allord a second rate nomi nation when n first class one could as easily have ba n made. If the Demo cratic State convention should be be trayed into the nomination of a man for State Treasurer who has no strong or claims to the support of Democrats than Ilawle confessedly has to the support of Republiofins, we will not be hw in entering our protest against it as one not lit to have been made. tJroHo: Washinoton. by lcfusing to be a candidate for the Presidency a third time, established what has since beeti universally recognized as "the dependent upon 'Mho approval of I he Pope. They havo .never said this. They have made obedience dependent upon the appro val of their conscience. The allusion to their conduct at the Vatican Council, in which the mini.str i ial rescript indulges, is quite beside the mark. Tn the first place, that conduct is grossly misrepresented by the writer of the rescript. Never, for in stance, have any of the Prussinr. bishops predicted troubles and disturbances of the public ieace as the inevitable, and there fore preventable, consequences of the then disputed doctrine of infallibility. More over, after the resolution of the Council in favor of the. doctrine, has become part and parcel of the Itoman Catholic faith, and is binding upon the conscience of every Cath olic, to reject or to question it is to reject the Catholic religion. Prince Bismarck himself, on January 30, 1S72. in publicly become the corner-stone of the great Keiut- liean parly to which we belong; and fur vhirh rrffon ire p!ehc otiwlrrt to tfin nppnrt of rreniih-ut Gran! for a third term, aMiired tlmt by k'i)i() we. sml! preserve that jieoce unl unity throiirIit'iit the vlioie country so ncccusury to it proyerity. His barely possible that the President regards the South Carolina Republican Convention as the "enemy" that forced the thiid-terni issue upon the party; but when it is remembered that the resolution we have quoted ws passed in pursuance of an assuroice to, an understanding with, Pres ident Grant, made by Senator Patterson before the meeting of the convention, the position of the President is at least illogi cal, to ue the mildest language. If he i were an ordinary man, in the ordinary i walks of life, it is probable that he might ! be accused of deliberate trickciy and mis i representation, but as he is the President ' of the United States and insists that the j 'enemy" is the author of the third-term ' issue, a modest suggestion thai he is some ! what awkward and unfortunate in his i mistakes, is perhaps the best way to ex j press it. j The only formal declaration of the third i term policy presented to the countiy from any quarter, was the deliverance ol the South Carolina Republican Convention some twelve mouths ago. Thisdechtiation was from his ow n friends, with Ids previous knowledge, and either positive or passive approval, and it was made to seen re his special favor in the disposition of troops fir election purposes in that State. Was this not "a body of the dignity and party authority" to make him speak on the sub ject ? or could he speak only in answer to a convention "of the second State in the Union?" If he had written then, when his own friends by formal party platform in a strong Republican State, declared I hat "we pledge ourselves to the suppoit of Presi dent Grant for a third term," as Washing ton wrote eighty years ago and said : "I decline being considered among the num ber of those out of whom a choice is to be made," is it probable that he could now say that he is Surprised" to see the enemy "force upon them and theii party an issue which cannot add strength to the party, no matter how met?" Either Piesident Giant must have a singidaily defective memory, or he is pai ticulai ly economical in the use of truth, on this tliiid term in fatuation. 1'h iUi.

A singular feature of the mystery is that, whosoever committed the theft seemed only to covet the golden ringlets, as an abun dance of valuable jewelry and a small sum of money on an uncovered table in the room remained untouched.
