Soon af tor ward a aelf-constituted committee waited upon Moss Bice, who had previously been "warned" to leave tho country, and fired several shots at him, npon which he left. Another of the Bice's, who had been "warned" but failed to comply, was found dead in the woods. Springstoor, it was believed, was a member of tho vi? gilance committee. Father Hyacinthe hos been invited to return to tho pastoral fold of Borne, and again refuses to submit to the disciplino of the Pope. Monsignor Dapanlonp, Bishop of Orleans, addressed a letter, couched in words of mild reproof, to the ex-chaplain of Notre Dame, advising him to hasten to the Holy City and prostrate himself at the feet of the Pontiff, be? seeching a forgiveness which he would be certain to obtain if so sought. The Pere replied to tho Bishop in words of respect and good feeling, declining to pursue the course which he advised, and re-affirming his position in these words: "What vou qualify as a great fault com? mitted, I call a great duty accomplished."
