AWSTRIA.AND THE POPE.
The opposition of Austria to the ,arroga.nt
pretensions of the Pope and his submissive
Council, has at length assumed a decided.
character. The Austrian Government has pro
tested continuously -and consistently against
the legiclation of the Council in matters re
lating to the civil - polity of -Catholic countries ;-
atti intlie 9r the Austrian bishops; - in exact
a cc or d ' w ith =theft governmentr -have-spoken
boldly, -freely_ and earnestly in Avor of tbat
libeTality which the government has desired in
the action of the Council. To-day we• have
information thit — CoVtin Beast and - tlie —
Iturtuarian Prime Minister have agreed to
forbid -the promulgation in the Austrian
dominions of any decree made by tbe ticumen:_
real- Council declaring - theinfallibility of -the -
To t . A better idea of the grandeur of this
assertion of, independence of religiousanthority
by the Austrian Gniernment can be
obtained, if .we remember that only
four years. ago Austria was bound hand
and foot by priestly_ influence, and
that the Pope regarded that country as the
greatest stronghold of- Catholicism
in-Europe,-
excepting benighted and misruled Spain. At
that time `the - concordat was in force ;• civil
marriages were prohibited, the Bible was a for
bidden book, and the schools of the country
and the training of the children were confided
entirely to the priesthood. All these hin
drances to liberty were swept away when
Count Von Beust assumed the reins of-govern
ment, and undertook the unpromising work of
rebuilding an empire that was almost destroyed
by a disastrous war. Now, the Afstrian peo
ple enjoy a degree of religious freedom nearly
equal to that which exists in Prussia; and this
last defiance of the Papal assumptions, sus
tained as it is, in a measure, by the liberal
clergy,!places Austria still nearer to that per
fect freedom to which all European nations are
tending.
It would be folly to expect that this cruel
blow, struck by a sovereign who was at one
time a most faithful on of the chin.* will di
vert the Pope from his purpose, or change the
determination of the Council to declare his in
fallibility. But it is not promising for the suc
cess of the scheme that it is repudiated in ad
-vance-by-France-and--Auitriarthe-two-greatest.
Catholic nations in the world; that Russia will
have nothing to do with it ; that Spain has pro
claiMed religiouSfreedom, and that the . Ameri
ttui hishops have protested with earnestness
and warmth against promulgation of the of
fensive dogma. The Pope will probably se-
Cure Lis object, but he will win only a barren
hone• ; for, besides the opposition of the civil
authorities of the nations most deeply inte
rested, he will be met by the continued. pro
tests of all intelligent Catholics,• who perceive
in this measure only theories which effend
their intelligence, and a disposition to chain
.the church to a dogma which is as — much
at' ariance with the spirit of the age as would
be the cruel practices which once made the In
quisition terrible.
THE RELAPSIAG FEVER.
Had the dangerous nature of this pestilence
been as well understood as it ought to have
been, when it first broke out, it might by this
time have been completely put down. But the
means taken to check it have been insufficient,
and we have now, to
. fight the disease ear
nest, with the summer heats approaching and
with much greater odds against us than when'
the first cases appeared, three mouths ago.
The disease, which first appeared iu and was
confined to Bedford street, has now spread to
St: Mary's street, Hirst street, Lisbon street,
and to Christian and Second streets, besides
other streets of a character similar to the first
mentioned. Nor does it-only attack the weak
and enfeebled. Strong and healthy men em
ployed in the districts in question have been
taken down with the pestilence, and the ques
tion beffire us is now simply, how far, are we
. going to allow it spread? That it ctui be
-, Checked is sufficientlyTrovedhy the experience
of New :York. Energetic meansitbere crushed
the disease completely out; the satri&-ean be
done here, but no half-hearted attack will do it.

• The odd way in •whic,h extremes meet is
rarely better illustrated than in the remarkable
coalescence of our gay and festive friends of
the "illoya" Bose Company with the sedately
genteel association known as the Philadelphia
Hose Company. It all came about thus:
Some time - last-winter-tbe-Philadelphia-flose—
Ct rupany, moved by a laudable desire to re
folio that most unpopular and troublesome
institution, the Volunteer Fire; Department,
determined to make an example of itself. 0
longer n illing to participate in the disgrace
which attaches to the rowdyism' and destruc-
tiveness of the V. F. D.; most of the remain-
ing active.,members of the Company proposed
a solemn act of hari-kari, by which they should
gloriously separate themselves -from -those evil
associations liich corriipt good manners,
by tbeir noble ekaniples, slioi ld lead o - ther ie
spectable and influential companies to go and
do likewise
The thought 'Nyasa noble one. Dying, as a
sacrifice to the cause of pyric morality, the
Philly " was preparing for
.herself a gloriott,
iritruottality; and bright hopes were enter
tained that from her ashes would spring that
- new—Phomix,-a-Paid-Fire Department,.
:Bat alasfor-the-self-sacrificing-spirit of these
devoteil_Dremen.;
The wisest plans of wiee'aild men
pan aft aglee," -
and Philly," instead of -dying like Cap
-1-alti-Kithyor-anrother--here-of-the. Revoke_
don, suddenly finds herself doomed to a, per
petual youth-by her marriage with the irre
pressible and unextingtiishable " Moya."
For-the ",lfifoya,"-_which.lhas leen._Standing_
like a disconsolate Peri at the garden gate of
the Fire Msocitition, has been-as--anxious-to
get in, as the "Philly" was to get-out. The.
latter bad shares, and likewise "'portable pro
"perty." The former had possession of that
irresistible persuader, lucre, and, with these
conditions, the coy Phillis was quickly wooed
_and_won. First and last, the surviving "Philly''
members will divide about twenty thotisatid
dollars, while, reversing the usual matrimonial
order, the ".Moya" adopts the - name of - the
blushing bride. The " Moya" passes into by-
F gene liistory, -- and the "-Philadelphia" receives
company at her new residence, late "Moya.'•
Dose House, at Eighth and Fitzwater streets.
The "Philly" thus gained immortality out
of her eflbrt to put herself to death. Her wed
ding-eve was celebrated at her late residence
in - Seventh' Street on---Monday--last, when;
"the wee, sma' hours ayant the twal," amid
tears and champagne and lobster-salad, the
ancient and genteel organization made the
final transfer of itself to the arms of the gallant
" Squire " who had captivated this modern
Danae in a shower of glittering gold.
As some of the old members of the
" PLilly " still retain a portion of their interest
in the company, the consolidated roll will pre
sent some striking contrasts. Distinguished
old family names, familiar through all the
pages of Philadelphia's history, will be found
blended with those that have made the name
of "Moya". a terror to the peaceable, and a
delight to the prig - melons, and—well, to the
irregularly-disposed, in these modern times.
It remains to be seen which of these elements.
- the aristocratic or the democratic, Will mould
and influence the other; or whether, as the
fruit of this apparently incongruous marriage.
there my not *ring a race of " boys, " pos
sessing all the best traits of both patents, the
orderly, law-loving propriety of the mother,
and the irrepressible energy, enterprise and
professional courage of the father.
But after all, there is one sad aspect of this
remarkable union. We lose our " Moya.'
Was it Byron, or was it some other poet who
asked, "What is Home without a Mother
And what'is Philadelphia without a "Mort?'
The battle-field and the ballot-box seem to lose
half of their local significance without their old
familiar association with the name of " Moya."
Who, for instance, can over connect the natn6
of McMullin with the " Play ?" And then,
when we come to fashionable life, what would
a ball, given uy the "Philadelphia Hose Com
pany," amount to? The " Moya" has gained
the coveted admission into the Fire Association,
lint it- has been not only at the cost of much
money, but by the surrender of those ,peculiar
glories which are inseparable from the name of
Moyamepsing.
As a graceful wedding present to mark the
happy nuptials, the,last act of the old "Moya"
company was the appropriation of one hun
dred dollars to the Richmond sufferers. And
so c.rif Moyamensing, enter Philadelphia. "Le

THE IJ'I'AII BILL.
Senator Cragin made a speech in the Senate
yesterday in favor of the passage of the Cul
lom bill for the suppression and punishment
of polygamy hill Ilis - tlemand: amounted
simply to this: :That Congress sliould pass a
law making polygamy felony, and theu should
punish every Mormon who did net_instantly
'reliiidiatn:bis - wives and bastardize . his children.
As such a:nieasure would be in the nature of,
an expo:ft:facto law, -and therefore unconstitu

twelve thousand two hundred and fifty-eight

_1192, at_Buryngton,_N,T. In 1819 he began
in Philadelphia his first publication, the Na

printed' the 'Saturday Magazine, a weekly,
which in 1822 be converted into a .monthly
called The Museum. of Foreign Literature and
Schnee. This he published here for twenty
- years, -- but -in -1843-it -was- united with,. a. New

:duced to go to Boston, where he began- the
publication of Littell's Living Age, which h 6
has conducted ever since with great tact and
judgment. He was a brother of JOhn S. Lit
tell and Dr. Squier Littell. Few men have
done as much as Mr. Littell to furnish the
American people with instructive, entertain
ing and healthful reading... his life has been
lung and honorable, and his death will _be de
plored in all parts of the country.
Many persons in Philadelphia will learn
with sorrow of the death, in Paris, of Win

dock's expedition, and altogether the best life
ever written of Major Andre. Numerous'
other writings of his, in pamphlets, •re
views and magazines, attested his scholarship
and research.' lie resided in Mississippi, du
ring the rebelliOn, and soon after it was ended,
his father was brutally murdered there by
bushwhackers. Mr. Sargent has since resided:
in-New—l-ork- r huOvent—to
vain search for health. He was a son of Creo:
W. Sargent ; and was born in this,city in 1525.

were taking in less than a thousand dol

colored men. Of the twelve millions of dol
