Mexican Affairs.?The conflict be? tween Catholicism and Protestantism in Europe is political. In Mexico it is personal. The Protestauts have been very active lately in Mexico, and our despatches from the capital show that tho number of reformed churches is increasing. The uxpulsiuu of the Sis? ters of Charity has been bitterly re? sented, aud the pledge of the Catholic women reveals intense feeling. It is a pity that a more tolerant pnblio opi? nion does uot put sq end to these per? petual religious wars. No country, can be free where the State and the church arc in allianee, or wbero society will not tolerute absolute freedom of thought. The Wak in Cuba.?If tho Spanish authorities in Cuba fail to auppresBthe rebellion now, they might as well abandon the attempt. They have been six years doing nothing, aud Bay Ha? vana despatches, that'Captain-General. Concha will direct the campaign per? sonally, and that indemnity is to be reudered to loyal subjects. If the in? surgents can withstand these measures of confiscation and attack, sustained by reinforcements from .Spain, they will prove that they are entitled to re? cognition and able to obtaiu their in? dependence. We doubt that General (Jonoha will do more in person than he has achieved by his deputies. The Grand Jury of Marion County declares the jury law to be a nuisance That is .where their heads were level. The ignorance or venality of one man can deprive a County of a court for a whole year. On numerous occasions have we known of lawyers, wituesses and jurors being brought to the court house towns, at great publio aud pri? vate expense, only to find that a court could not be legally held because of tbo stupidity of a jury commissioner. There should be u change made that would render such things impossible J Union-Herald. United Si-ati:k Court, Charleston, February 9.?Tho petition of O. B.
