By the Prompt Discharge of an Oyer-Officious Policed man at Jeannette. FBAECE EASILY PLACATED. Another Instance of Shrewd Diplo macy Coming Out on Top. GRATE IKTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Arranced Tilth Cleverness to AToid Serious Complications. 1 SOUTHERNER'S WAT OF D0I.G IT UP iritOM A sta.it cobrkspovdevt.i "Washington, Auc. 27- At last another International difficulty lias been adjusted, and the United States is again relieved of the apprehension of a foreirn war. It is only a few weeks since Dr. Georga, an at tache of the Swiss legation, was arrested and rouchly handled over at Bav Bidge, on the Chesapeake, through an absurd mistake of a lady who thought she bad been robbed be the semi-diplomat. A solemn and formal correspondence ensued, and the trouble was adjusted and the incident declared closed only when the Swiss Government had been assured that the rather stupid officer who made the arret had been dismissed. The latter affair was more serious, for it involved a quarrel with a more powerful nation, and was no less offensive than an insult to the flag of France. On last Fourth of July, when all nature was rejoicing on account of the Stars and Stripes and the Declaration of Independence, some felllow awav off in Jeannette presumed to fly the French tri-color instead of or along with the Americen flag. An OflicVn Orer-Offlclousness. Certain citizens of Jeannette, having mere l atriotism than sense, deemed it an irmiJt to America to float any other flan on the natal day of the Republic than the recognized banner of the country. They excited a revolt against the admirer of France, and they were so violent in their eloquence against the jntrnsion of the lor eign rag that they encouraged a policeman, wiio had not even as cood an excuse for his ect as that officer at Bay Eidge had for his, to enter the domicile of the offender, maVe li: way to the flagpole, and by lorce and crius "tear down the banner of our sister Republic regardless cf the complica tions and even ol the horrors of viar, that might be the result of the act. Of course the affair, in all of its terrible and humiliating details, was made the sub ject of a formal statement to if. Pate xiotre. Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from Fronce to the United States M. Patcnotrc, in turn, cabled the iacts to lii Government An Easy -ettIement ol Ihe Case, The Trench Cabinet sat upon the case anu again communicated with M. Patenotre, beggins that gentleman to convey to the United States Government their concern on account ol the occurrence, and askiug what was the purpose of the United States Gov ernment, bvwav of reparaion for the in sult to the French flag. The State Department communicate'd with the Goernor of Pennsylvania, asking to be informed of all the facts of the case. The Governor reported, and at the same time cave the vital .information that the ofieudinc policeman had been "dismissed from employment at the town of Jeannette. This important action, due to the interfer ence of the Government of the sovereign Commonwealth of Pennsjlvnnia, was duly transmitted to the high authorities of the State Department a dry or two ago, and this morning, just before the departure of 31ouicoT Patenotre for his beloved France, Assistant Secretary Grinnell, of the State Department, gave the envoy, etc., the joy ful news to carry to his Government that the offensive policeman had been dismissed, and could the Envoy, etc., say whether Eaeh action would be satisfactory. The envoy, etc, felt that he could promise that thr rej aration was all that bis Govern ment onld demand, nnd that this second alnruiiug incident might be looked upon as closed. Thus another war is averted by hzrd-headcd and skillful diplomacy, and Pcnnsjhania escapes the crime of plung ing two sister Itepublics into a bloody fray. Another Threat of W ar Spoiled. The State Department seems to feel very little concern in regard to the story that comes from Venezuela of the invasion of en American -vessel and the forcible de ntition oi five members of the Venezuelan Congress by revolutionary soldiers. The news comes through the medium of the captain of the cssel that was boarded, a ship of tne "lied D" line, and not officially lrom the Consul at Porto Cabello, the port where the incident occurred. The Captain asserts that an officer of the revolu tionary force came aboard his vessel with a squad of soldiers and demanded the sur render of the five Congressmen. The Cap tain retused to accede to the request and communicated at once with the Consul, who banpens to be one of the most famous of the nianv famous "judges," "colonels" and "majors" of the palmy days of these gentle men in "WaMiincton. "He'is "Judge Eiley, of Accmnac, by Gad, sir," a Judge of the United States District Court of Virginia nmier Grant, and one of the most fluent of liwng nien.w ho, as Consul at Porto Cabello, would put on the demeanor, in a diplomatic conflict, of a minister of the first class. It was predicted uhen the judge was sent there, to get him where he could not for awhile ak for another office, he would have a hand m some sort of a diplomatic broil b!ore roniiv moons, as he would not allow Ins Iil-IH to be hidden under a thousand bushels. D dn't Care a Rap Tor Uncle Bam. It is reported by the Captain that the judge came promptly aboard when he was appealed 10, and declared that the Captain had acted strictly in accordance with treaty stipulations, and would be upheld by his Government. He laced the revolutionary cutthroats and warned them, as onlv Judtre Eilcv could warn them, of the danger they would incur it they dared to interfere with the liberty of any who claimed the protect. on of the American flag, but the brigands, who will probably soon be in possession of the Venezuelan Government, Eay they did not care a continental for the United States Government, and as for the pompous Consul, he could co to the mis chief and say the Venezuelan party sent hi in there. I asked an official at the State Depart ment what would be done in the premises, r d was to'd that no action could be taken 1 1 til an official presentation of the offense a mule- It seemtd that the intrusion and arrest were the act of persons who were in ii' ought bythe present Government of Vc cez u i.i, and it was not clear, therefore, hnu that Government could be held respon- ble At any rate, Judge Eiley would have to be heard from before any formal feps tr. demand reparation could be made. It is sate to ay the story will not lose anv of its thrillincdetails when it comes fresh 1 om 'it eloquent pen of Judge Eiley, of Accomtsc. lmm' Rrfnsal of n Ke-ElfC!lon. The announcement by United Stales Sen ator Dtwes, of Massachusetts, that (he will not be a candidate for re-election, comes as a great surprise to all who know him in Washington, and that means all Wai ton. One who has been here as a meVpber of the popular branch of Congress foAle in bl o years and of the "unpopular Branch" for almost as long a period, must, of necessity, be well known. Moreover, Mr. Dawes was never timid at forging to the front. He was alwavs readr to take a hand in debate, and, as he" grew old in years, was- somewhat too ready to enter the arena ot discussion. Much as he is entitled to of praise for the earnestness and integrity of his career, his resignation will be received without much regret in the interests of the introduction of the younger blood and ideas which have outstripped the alow movements ot the grand, but aged, men who live in the past and find nothing so much to their mind as the glories of the stirring days when they were in the completeness of their vigor and always in the thick of the fray. I fancy if a vote of the people of "Wash ington could be taken, Mr. Henry Cabot Lodge would be the choice for Senator to succeed the successor of the great Charles Sumner. Mr. Lodge stands in the forefront of the vounger race of statesmen of the old and classic Bay State, being only 42 years old. Among them he has not at this time his equal for vigor of thought and dignity of bearing in the ranks of either party. Principal Candidates at Fresonr. Speaker Barrett, of the Massachusetts House of Representatives, who will contest for the succession to Dawes in the Senate with Mr. Lodge, is also very popular here, especially with the newspaper correspond ents, of "whom he was one for years and by whom he was highly esteemed for his bright, hearty, attractive manner. In thought and expression, however, he would hardlv be called the equal of Mr. Lodge, even by his most laithtul admirers. Mr. Lodge has served two terms in his home Legislature and is now in his sixth year in Congress, which is a valuable experience for so young a man and one who may be advanced to the highest and most dignified parliamentary body in the land. Mr. Dawes' voluntary retirement may be called the beginning of the breaking up of the old men of national repute who nave grown gray in the service and who have, most of them, been actors either in the field or in Congress, in the great tragedy ot 30 years ago, and in the days that tried men's soulu during the preceding years when this old guard was split in two and fighting the preliminary battle of words for or against slavery. Stonr'g Good Words for "Walker, Bedford, Pa., Aug. 27. Special Congressman W. A, Stone, who, with ex Speaker Graham, left for Pittsburg to-night, was asked what he had to sav about Mr. Walker, who is likely to be his opponent this fall. The handsome Congressman, with a smile covering his face, said he had a high opinion of Mr. Walker, and his nomination assured a clean campaign, devoid of all per sonalities. Mr. Stone's visit here was cut short on account ot his selection as a con feree in the judicial contest in the Butler Lawrence district, which will meet next week. Taltlnc Time br th Forelock.

Lewis Johnston, colored, struok his sister last night The girl's beau, William White, took h'erpart and irr the quarrel which followed White was so severely cut with a raxor that he nearly bled to death. About 7 o'clock last evening White called on his girl, Lula Johnston, at her home in Our alley. While they were con versing her brother Lewis appeared in the back yard and held a conversation with a neighbor. Lula Johnston walked out to the couple and asked her brother not to talk to the girl. Her brother hit her in the lace. She ran crying into the house and told White. He went into the yard and attacked Johnston. The latter drew a razor, and while White had his arms abont him Johnston slashed him on the back, making two swift strokes, from the shoulder to the hip. One of the wounds exposed the ribs on the left side. White attempted to get the razor and grabbed the blade with his band, and that member was nearly severed in twain. John ston ran away. Lnla Johnston had called for assistance during the quarrel, and when aid arrived the injured man was attended to. He was already weak from the loss of blood and was carried down to, Dr. Lough rey's office on Fifth avenue.

Warmed over mutton frequently served, fruit now and then, a daughter who dffl not dine with her father and mother and who thus far has not been shown to have asked about her mother's health after a dangerous sickness, girls who for the most part lived in their rooms and said nothing of their going and coming.

The Kind of Catholicism UelleYed in hj the Hvtcintb.es, SINGULAR D0CTKIHE8 PROMULGATED. rSPICIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. New York, Aug. 27. Mme. Hyacinthe Loyson, wife of the celebrated Charles Loyson, better known as Fere Hyacinthe, arrived in this city to-day and is at the Fifth Avenue HoteL She is here in the interest of the work which she and her hus band are at present doing in France. The lite story of Mme. Loyson is a carious one. An American girl, born of Puritan stoct, raised in th'e Methodist faith, and for many years a communicant of Henry Ward Beecher's church, she became, by her per sistency and ability, a prominent figure of the Boman Catholic Church, and, indeed, she was no stranger within the Vatican itself. , Mme. Loyson first married Captain E. E. Merriam, of Ohio. Two children were born of this union, a daughter, who died in early youth, and a son. Mme. Loyson was one of the first women in America to do newspaper work, and continued it long after her marriage with Captain Merriam. When he died she went abroad, and while in Borne espoused the Boman Catholic faith. She quickly developed into a poli tician, however, and entered actively into the controversy between the TJltramon taines, or Jansenlsts, and the Jesuits,- tak ing sides with the liberal Catholics, who rejected such doctrines as the infallibility of the Pope. Her Marriage to Fere Hyacinthe. She was much sought after, and had main tained the plans for a woman's college at Borne, when there appeared on the scene the broad-shouldered, sweet-voiced Pere Hyacinthe, who, despite his priestly avoca tion, became enamored of' the brilliant American, and his affection proved recip rocal The priest finally renounced the deep asceticism of the barefooted Carmelite friar, snapped bis fingers at the vows which stood in the path of his happiness, and married the woman of his choice. It is hardly necessary to add that the marriage shocked the Catholic world, and the press of Europe was outspoken in its condemnation. In all the years that have followed theirmarriage, Peie Hyacinthe and his wife have worked together in their self-assnmed mission the reform of the Catholic church. Speaking of that mission to-day, Mme. Loyson said: "Bear in mind that ours is not a new sect; it is far from Pere Hyacinthe's inten tion to add to the already too numerous divisions of Christians. There should.be but one church, and that should and must be, not the Boman Church, but the one Apostolic Catholic Church. The Cnthollo Church Not One of Changes. "Our Catholic Church has never changed, but the Boman Church has been slowly but surely changing since long before the Vati can council of 1870, when it made so many radical changes that Catholicity was per verted. The Pope and the Jesuits became masters of the situation, and we remained steadfast in the faith. "We deny the infallibility of the Pope, for the simple reason that the Pone was never heard of until many years after the establishment of our church the old Cath olic, that national church of power. We recognize primacv. but not the papaoy. The Catholic Church is the great republic of souls. Borne deviates from the principles of Catholicity; we deviate from the system. The Catholic Church was founded by St. John, the Boman Church by St. Paul. "My object in visiting America is first, to see the home of the friends and the scenes ot my childhood in a hope of regain ing my lost health, but while here I ex pect to accept the invitations already re ceived to give drawing room entertain ments, in order that bur friends may learn the real truth about our religion, which is an old religion taught by a new, method a method of love. At the same time, I ex pect to appeal to our friends for help, that the good won: may go on uninterrupted. Figures la VI hich !b. Drllchts. "Our miraculous success may be estimated when I say that out of 34,000,000 Catholics in France only 2,000,000 are in reality Boman Catholics. The 32,000,000 are not infidels; they are not Protestants; they be long to our church, save in this that when dying they invariably call in a Bomish priest, that they may obtain Christian burial thereby, but in time we hope to eradicate the superstition. "The National Society of the Evangeliza tion of France, originated bv the good Pere during the last Lenten season, alrealy in cludes the ministers ot the Lutheran, Pres byterian, Methodist, Reformed and Catho lic (not Boman) churches of France. Now you have the history ot our church, the old Catholic Church of France, in a nutshell," Mme. Loyson is suffering from an injury to her foot, which she sustained on the voy age over, having been thrown from her berth during a storm. LOOKS LIKE 701TL PLAT.
