(New York Sun, 15th.) Rome, Oct. 14. In consequence of a report from Cardinal McCIoskey tbe Vatican ia taking measures for a very considerable development of vathohcism in America. "This dispatch," the Rev. Dr. Mc- Glynn, pastor-of St. Stephen's Roman Catholic church said, last evening, "is, essentially improbable, if? not ab sur. The spread of the Roman Catho lie Church in America can only be gradual. It cannot be forced by any oden measures. It most Tesult from the natural propagation of the faith, whether from the birth of chil- ren of Roman Catholic parents, the immigration of Roman Catholics or the conversion of non-Roman Catho lics. The Church in America has never ceased to endeavor to extend its circle of influence, which it believes to be for the good of those that are in cluded in it. This it has done main ly by the education of young men for the priesthood, the establishment of new bishoprics, but not before they are actually needed, and the subdivision of older ones. Undoubtedly Cardin al McCIoskey has had good news of the Church to communicate to the Vatican, but not of a character to jus tify this telegram. THE TALLEST MAN AND WOMAN IN THE WORLD, The tallest man is Capt. M. V. Bates, the tallest woman is his wife, formerly Auna Swan. Capt. Bates was born in Hopkins county, Ky., his parents being of ordinary size. He continued to remain with his parents,who were farmers, doing the ordiuary labor of a small farm until attaining his majority ,at which time he coucluded to see something of the world Proceeding te Cincinnati, thence to New York, he was finally induced to proceed to Europe for the purpose of exhibiting himself. In conjunction with Miss Anna Swan, whom he met there, they traveled over Europe. Tbey were married at St Martin's church, London, England, June 17, 1871. They were, by request guests of the Queen, and received from her majesty watches aud jewels as souvenirs, Mrs. Bates, formerly Miss Anna Swan was born in Colchester county, Nova Scotia; is 29 years old, weighs 413 pounds is 7 feet Hi inches high. Mr. Bates is 7 feet Hi inches high, weighs 478 pannds, wears a No. 9 hat, 25 collar, and a 15 boot. Both are wel formed well proportioned, good looking and highly cultured. They are the largest man and woman that live. Iu fact there is no authentic record of any human beings ever having the enormous height of the these people. They returned to New York for exhibi tion in February last and will shortly make a tour of the West. A Washington dispatch says there does not seem, attar impartial investigation, tli at there is adequate cause for the letter of instruction sent to the United States Attorneys in reference to the alleged inter ference with Republican meetings. .It is reliably stated that the persons who came to Washington and who has been pouring his mendacious recitals into the ears of partisans purposely credulous is entitled to no confidence whatever. Of course not, aud any saae man ought to have known at first that there was not a word of truth in tbe lying sauder. Neither Hayes nor his man Devens can find excuse for the slanders they put in circulation under the highest possible offi cial sanction by sayiug that some other lying slanderer had misinformed them. Instructions like those issued by Devens, at the order of Hayes, are entirely of too grave a character to be issued, except up on the best aud surest foundation. No mere street rumor and no false represen tations of lying partisan lips ean afford the slightest pretence even of justification for the President of the Uuited States and his Attorney General in publishing to the world mi groundless a slander. As we said the other day would be the case, the threats of Federal persecutions and Fed eral indictments have no where created auy alarm among the people whom they were iutended to influence." To use what our old Supreme Court was pleased to term "the flippant speech of that rude soldier, Kirk," that sort of thing has 'played out." lialeigh Obercer. A New People. It iaclaimed that s new people has been discovered in a district of India. They are surmised to be descendants of the Jews sent into that land by Solomon to capture elephants and work in the gold mines. They call themselves Sons of Israel, not Jews, and declare that they have auto graph prayer books written by the Fatriarchs, and also written Bible, although Hebrew has become almost a dead language with. 1 them.

Judge Merrimon spoke to' a large audience in the Court House on last Saturday, on the sub ject of hard times and the cause. For three hours he held 1m audience In one of the finest efforts we ever listened to, and not a person who heard hinrbuvnenjtvwayjwiser. It is impossible to give a synopsis ofthe speech, but we hope Judge Merjimod will write it out and give it to the public. The loss of capital North and South, by the war, the corruption, extravagence and the policy of contraction by the Republican party," he gave as the prime cause of he hard times. He believed that we ought to haye more money, and that the bonds should be paid off in greenbacks. He paid one of the finest tributes te labor we ever heard, and gave it as his opinion that it was onljj by labor and economy that the country could be recuper ated.

There are hundreds of families ia comfortable circumstances who never have sotlp at' dhirrer. w They are not aware how easy it to. prepare ordin ary soup and how ch6ap it is too. It can be made of almost anything, and a pot of water placed . on the stove may be the recipient of divers odds and ends of meat and vegetables to ex cellent advantage. After these have been boiled a few hours there will be found in the pot a very good soup, wholesome, nourishing,,, appetizing, and its cost will pe nominal. If the experiment were tried many families would be surprised and pleased at the result. "Tl.ie'vXTulil have a much better binner for almost nothing than they have hitherto ha"d any idea of, and once accustomed to soup they could not be persuaded Jo relinquish it. A simple soup benefits at once health, appelije and the purse. . . i ' ak y A most singular case of suicide has developed-in (j'uicianati., . A few days ago a. seven year old son of Mr;.
