Aloorn, of Mississippi, said the vote just taken indicated the fact that the Republicans had become tho? roughly demoralized on the subject of civil rights, and he felt con? strained to vote against the bill. It could be construed iu no other way than as en intimation that if the trus? tees of the school choose to do so, tbey might exclude colored children from its benefits.

Mexioan Affairs.?The conflict be? tween Catholicism aud Protestantism in Europe is political. In Mexico it is personal. The Protestants have been very active lately in Mexico, and our despatches from the capital show that tho number of reformed cborches is increasing. The expulsiou of the Sts? tors of Charity baa been bitterly re sentod. aud the pledge of the Carbolic women reveals intense feeling. It is u pity that a more tolerant public opi? nion does nut put an end to these per? petual religious wars. No country can be free where the State and the churob arc in allianee, or wbero society will I not tolerate absolute freedom of thought. The War in Cora.?If the Spuuish authorities in Cuba fail to suppress the rebellion now, they might as well abandon tbe uttempt. They bave been six years doing nothing, aud say Ha? vana despatches, that Captain-General Concha will direct tho campaign per? sonally, aud that indemnity is to be rendered to loyal subjects. If tho in? surgents cun withstand these measures of confiscation aud attack, sustained by reinforcements from Spain, they will prove that they ure entitled to re? cognition and able to obtaiu their in? dependence. We doubt tbat General Conoha will do more iu person thau 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 wcro level. Tho ignorance or venality of one man can deprive a County of a oourt for a whole year. Oa numerous occasions have we known of lawyers, witnesses and jurors being brought to the court boose towns, at great pnblio aud pri? vate expense, only to find that a court could not be legally held because of the stupidity of a jury commissioner. There should be a change made that would render suoh tilings impossible 1 Union-Herald. Uniteo States Court. Charleston, Febrnary 9.?The petition of O. B.
