At last he come back from one of bis side excursions with a lowering brow, and no money, lie ait down, watches the game a moment and leaves.

This latest lilerary aeplrant to pnbllo fttvor made Its sppearanoe oa Monday morning, ondor the title of La Republiqoe.
It presents very neat appearanoe mechanically, and ao far as we are able to judge from onr limited knowledge of Frenoh, is ably edited. As a strong advocate of the oanse of the Union, and a bitter foe to seoession, we hail the birth of the Repnbliqne as a favorable omen for the oanse, and fesl that it will do good servioe to the country by com-bating the heresy of disunion among our ancient popnlation. IMS CATHOLIC CHURCH. Thar ia not, and there never was says Mr. Maoanlay, in that masterly essay on Rank's history of the Popes on this earth, a work of human policy ao well deserving of examination as the Roman Catholic Church.
The his tory of that church joins together the two great agea of human civilization. No other institution is left standing, which oarriea the mind back to the timea when the smoke of saoriHoe rose from the when oamelopards and tigere bounded in th. Flavian amphitheater. The prondeat royal house are bnt of yesterday, when compared with the line of the Supreme Pontiffs. That line we trace back in an uubrokon series, from the Pope who orowned Napoleon in the nineteenth century, to the Pops who orowned Pepin in the eighth, and far beyond the time of 1'epln the angsst dynasty extends, till it is lost in the twilight of table.
The republic of Veuioe came next in antiquity. Bat the republio of Venioe was modern when compared with the Papaoy and the repnblio of Venioe is gone, and the Papaoy remains. The Papaoy remains, not in decay, not a mere antique, bnt full of life and youthful vigor. The Catholic Clin roll is still sending forth to the furthest euda of the world missionaries as cealous as those who landed In Kent with Angustin and still confronting hos tile kings with the same spirit with which she confronted Attila. Tba number of her chil dren ia greater than in any former age.
Her acquisitions In the New World have more than compensated her for what she lost in the Old. Her spiritual asoenden-ur extends over the vast ocuutries which lie between tba plains of the Missouri and Cape Horn countries which, a oentnry hence, may not improbably contain a population as large as that whloh now inhabits Eu rope. Th members of her community are certainly not fewer than a hundred and fifty millions and it will be difficult to show that all the other Christian sects united amount to a bnndred and twenty millions. Nor do we see any sign which indicates that the term of her loDg dominion ia approaobing. She saw the commencement of all the governments, and of and of all the ecoleeiastioal establishments that now exist in the world and we feel no atisur-ance that sh is not destined to see the eud of them all.
She was great and respected before the Saxon had set loot on Britain before the Franck bad passed the Rhine when Orecian eliquenca still flourished at Autiocb when idols wore still worshipped in the temple of Meooa. And she may slill exist in undiminished vigor when some traveler from New Zealand shall, in the midst of a vast solitude, take his stand on a broken arch of Loudon Bridge to sketch the ruins of 8t. Paul's. Claihoens F. Jackson Dead.
The robel Governor of Missouri is said to have died on th 7th of last month, near Little Rock. He was one of the arch traitors who attempted to precipitate Missonri into rebellion, and died an exile and outcast from the State he had tried to betray. 11 was a man of talent, and ao- quired some distinction in former years for his valuable servioe to his adopted Slate bat bis traitorous conduct while Governor has obscur ed bis former aud better aots, and he will be remembered ia future rather for th part be took in the rebellion than for the real good he has done.

Hut that snoh was the oase, was now potent to all. There were the four steamers Immediately in front, slowly but surely nesting their object of attack.
The two foremost steamers were side by side, the tnirri a short distance tn thetr wake, and the fourth, atill further off. In the meantime everything was in readiness on board the Federal war vessels to give their stealthily-approaching enemy a warm reception a regular old-fashioned Now Year's grootlng. The first veseol attacked was the Harriet Line, by two ot the steamers, one on each side. The Lane, unfortunately, was agronnd when attacked, and therefore unable to herself to any groat advantage, nevertheless she sua cseded in getting several well-directed shots into one ol th steamers, canning her to sink in a tew niluntes. By this time the third steamer had run alongside of the Lane, and the sharpshooters opened upon the gunners, all of whom were killed in a short time, together with the commander, Capt, Walnwright, A soon as Capt Wainwright fell, the Texans boarded the vessel, and after a horoic dotal se by the Fed eral officers and men, captured her.
The lop of life on the Lane was as follows Capt. Waiu- wright, First Lieutenant Lee, ami a large limn ber of the crew, oonalsting of l'JO men. Tho Confederates next Inrned their attention to the I'. 8. steamer Weslfleld, acting com mander Reuehaw, lying a short distance off, and which, like the Harriet Lane, was also aground.
