(For the Morning ltar and Catholic Messenger]
FPIENDSHIP.
Many have friends of their purse, friends of
their table, friends also of their body, alas ! to
the detriment of the soul. But such are false.
Your only true friend is that of your soul-who
loves you, not to your prejudice but to your
salvation ; who would rather see you sutler
than do wrong. Far from being blinded, as
Love is said to be, he will detect your most
trivial faults, because he would wish you to be
perfect. Such is God's love for us: such ilso
is all affection which has its source and end in
Him--ny other iH only a counterfeit. But
this friendship should not be sullied by the
least breath of sensuality, knowing that the
smallest insect can destroy the beautiful bloom,
wivfr'maicto-bud here, and await the blos
som under the rays of the Eternal Sun.
St. Gregory of Nazinuzen has left us a beauti
ful portrait of his friendship with St. Basil:
"'I went to Athens." says he, " in the view to
acquire human knowledge, and heaven reserved
me there the most precious of treasures-a
faithful friend. When we recognized that we
both had the same object, the search of true
wisdom, each of us became at once all for the
other-same roof, same table, same heart and
thought. Sensual love, which attaches itself
to passing joys, fades as soon as they; but
friendship, chaste and according to God, is
durable, because the object does not change.
To-grow in virtue, to detach ourselves more
and more from earth, to aim only at heaven
such was all our study, and it is thus that we
worked to render our 'riendship eternal. In
this way we walked together, the law of God
being our guide. We only knew two roads,
that of the church and that of the school; for
those which conducted to spectacles, to assem
blies, we ignored them absolutely. They speak
of a river which flows through the waters of
the seaovithout being altered, of a winged
animal living unhurt in the midst of flames
such was our life in Athens." c. v. M.
Exeountion of Tognetti and Montl.
The execution of these men has given occa
sion to the hostile and sectarian press to vent
their spleen on the Pontifical government.
Never was an act of justice more deservedly
ca icht out. The participators iii this crime
have expiated with their lives an atrocious act
-blowing up the barracks occupied by the
Pontifical Zouaves, which occurred on the 22d
of October. Those who visited the ruins de
scribe the scene as most harrowing. The
groans and cries of the dying Zouaves, their
calls for absolution, where the ordinary helps
of religion could not be procured-the muan
gled remains of those just rescued-all formed
a scene of horror wvhich the imagination, in its
wildest wanderings, could not conceive. We
subjoin a few paragraphs from the correspond
ence of the London Wkeekl Register ;
The Padre Blost had frequent interviews
with Monti, and a Passionist Father with Tog
ietti, and their success, aided by the prayers of
all the religious orders and confraternities of
Rome, was as great as it was at one period un
expected. Tuesday was the day-fixed on, and
on Monday morning, at an earlyihour, the two
condemned men received the intelligence from
the pious Confraternity of St. Giovanni Decol
late, who always on these occasions aceompany
the civil authorities, and to whom the criminals
thenceorth belong. The Pryor, after em
braog nboth, began his office of consolation,
and jointly with the confessors remained in the
a.pella where they were confined, doing all in
hi power to induce them to prepare for death.
The unhappy men, when all hope of life was
gone, showed every sign of the most edifying
anm minoere repentance; they passed the night
in rayer, and after a devout asisataice at a
ist Mass, received the Vaticunf, at the second
took some refreshment, and heard a third Mass
or ahappy death; and then, accompanied by
their confessors, were conveyed in closed car
riages to the place of execution. It is one
familiar to yourreaders who have visited Rome
as the piazza in which stands the temple of
Vesta, and before the Church of Sta. Maria in
Cosmedino, commonly called Lucca di Viriti,
from the antique masque standing in the porch.
Here again the Confraternity awaited them,
and they entered the adjacent convent, where
the Blessed Sacrament was exposed for their
intentions.
Monti had, on the previous evening, expressed
a strong desire to see M. do sOharette, who lost
no time in repairing to the prison of San
Michele. On his entering the cell, Monti
threw himself at his feet, and asked his for.
giveness for the crime of which so many of the
Zouaves had been victims. He could not, he
said, die without this pardon, and implored M.
do Charette to ask it in his name and that of
his companion of the regiment. "Let them
forgive us fronm their hearts," he said,-" and
not curse our memory when we have made the
last expiation in our power, and let them pray
to God for our souls.' lie then; in the most
moving terms, recommended his wife and chil
dreni to the charity of the Zonaves. Could
volumes render a more glorious testimony to
our new crusaders than such a request from
such an enemy t Need I say how it was re
ceived and answered by one of the best and
bravest of Christian soldiers.
There was a deep hush, but not the slightest
attempt at disapprobation, as Monti issued
from the chapel and walked firmly and cour
ageously to the scaffold. -He held a picture of
our Blessed Lady in his hand and ptayed
audibly. Padre Blosi, of the Gesn, was at his
side, and on the scaffold the last absdlution was
given, and the axe fell. Tognetti appeared
about ten minutes after; but as he feared see
ing the body of his friend and the signs of the
previous executions his eyes had been-bandaged
and he stumbled as he mounted the steps. The
Passionist Father, who accomnpanied elim. sup
porteld him, saying, "Courage, imy'leoor child!
anolte'r step and you will be in heaven." And
taking the crucitix in Iis hantld as Tognetti
knelt betifore the guillotine, he raised ]his voice,
slyiclg, " Fr the, last tinle on earth, I ble's you
in tile nae'u l of the l'athlcer,-.tli of tile Son, .i mI
of thle loly ;Ghlost." Ti,' knife fill as Toeguetti
was heare to ej:cuhltet, "'i'icct I ii mis're'cmrdia.'"

31isery was the cause allhged by both for their
crime. Cucchi gave them £2 each for'firing
the train! Monti left behind him a letter to
the Pope, in which he made a full confession
of guilt, and stated that he had been affliated
four years since to the secret societies, and had
since that time become a tool in their hands.
He ends by imploring the Pope's pardon, and
blessing and prayers for his poul, and by recom
mending his widow qnd children to the charity
of the Holy See.

VICARIATE ArosToLC OF NORTH CAIROLINA.
Letters received front North Carolina give us
gratifying intelligence of the movements of Rt.
Rev. Bishop Gibbons, who has been for mnire
than four weeks making the visitation of the
eastern portion of his Apostolic Vicariate. This
part of the State comprises the vast mission of
Father Northop, who accompanied the Bishop
in his travels. Everywhere the Bishop preach
ed to large and attentive audiences, with great
zeal, eloquence and fruit. Offers were made in
many towns to assist in the erection of Cath
olic churches, Protestants uniting with Cath
olics in their promises of aid. The active zeal
of the new Bishop will, no doubt, be crowned
with sueceess. The Mission is most arduous and
extensive; the labors and privations to be in
dured are almost incalculable; but the reward
will more than compensate them all. The
Bishop was to return to Wilmington for the
Christmas festivities. God grant im and his
all the blessings of the joyous season!
A correspondent gives the result as follows:
"Total distance traveled by stage, steamboat
and rail, about 925 miles. Number of places
visited, including towns and stations, 16. Nmn
her of Catholics ill various Missions of Fmther
Northop. 4001. Nu'umber of personhaptizcd, 10;
of whom ten were convecrts. Total nulllller

FOREIO CATHOLIO INTRuJLNOlE.
The General Conse.-Wjile the Greek schis
matical Pattiarch of Constantinople is refusing,
to attend the General Council, another pbrtion
of the Bulgarian Church, which till lately
recognized his jurisdiction, js declaring its in
dependence of his authority, sad considering
the question of submission to the Holy See.
Among the Armenian Schismatics there is also
a strong party in favor of accepting the invita
tion to the Council, and there is reason to hope
that three of their Patriarchs will undertake a
journey to Rome next year. In the north of
Europe the Jansenists of JIollapd are pre
pared to submit to the General Council., One
of the Dutch Jansenist priests writes to the
Tyd, the Catholic journal of Amsterdam, in his
own name, and that of his companions in
schism: "We universally and ardently desire
that the Council should put an end to the
separation which exists between us and our
brethren of Holy Church."-London Tablet.
The Cardinal Archbishop of Santiago and
his suffragans have just published an address
to the provisional government in Madrid, upon
the relation of the Church to civil governments
and religious opinions. T is -a remarkable
document, and deserves attentive considera
tion, not for any novelty il doctrine, but as a
clear manifestation to the wQrld of Catholic
teaching in respect to ecclesipmical tolerance
or intolerance of the various forms of State
governments and false religions.-Ibid.
. We observe, with satisfaction, among the
diplomatic papers, lately published, that M. le
Baron de Beust not only instructs the Count
Crivelli to express to the Holy Father the "pro
found devotion and unalterable attachment of
his august master," .but to add, that he had as
sured the Emperor of the French, during his
visit to Paris, "that he might.count upon the
moral support of Austria in all his sneasnres
Lpr defe f_ni Rome against the attacks of her
enemies.--.
Three Irish lar es took the veil November 28
at the Convent of St. Joseph, Blackness-road,
Dundee. The Very Rev. Dr. McDonald, Vicar
General for the eastern district of Scotland,
officiated in the absence of the Bishop from
indisposition, assisted by the Rev. Dr. McCorry,
of Arbroath, as deacon, and the Rev. Mr.
Goldie, of St. Mary's, Maxwellton, as subdeacon.
There were present the Rev. Dr. Grant, Lochee;
the Rev. Mr. Grady, Cupar, Fife; Rev. Dr. Smith,
Kircaldy, and Rev. Messrs. McGuinness, Mc
Dirmid, Hare and Ware, Dundee. The Sisters
of the Order are engaged in teaching girls and
young women, of whom about four hundred
attend their day schools, and an equal number
in the evening. They also visit the sick poor
when asked to do so.-Dublin Freenan.
The Hon. Colin Lindsay, brother of the Earl
of Crawford and Balcarras, and late President
of the English Church Union, was received
into the Catholic Church on November 28th, by
Dr. Newman, at the Oratory, Edgbaston, near
Birmingham. Mr. Lindsay was for many years
in the Indian Civil Service; and was for a long
time Session Judge at Delhi.
Catholic Bishops for India.-In the Consistory
held at Rome, on September 24th, the following
appointments of Bishops for India were ofi
cially proclaimed: To the Episcopal See of
Flaviopolis, i. p. i., the Right Rev. Francis John
Laonenan, Vicar Apostolic of Pondicherry; to
the Episcopal See of Media, i. p. 4., the Right
Rev. Christopher Bonjean, Vicar Apostolic of
Jaffnapatam;- to the Apostolic See of Nemesis,
i p. i., the Right Rev. Dr. Maria Ephrem, Vicar
postolic of uilon; to the Episcopal See of
Olympinm i. p. i., the Right Rev. Dr. Leonard,
of St. Louis, Coadjutor of the Vicar Apostolic
of V erspoly.
Archbishop Manning has purchased in Car
lislePlace, Victoria street, London, a site for
the erection of a Roman Cathollc Metropolitan
Cathedral. The foundation stone will be laid
when a sum sufficient to insure the uninter
rupted progress of the work has been accuma
lated, and the building will have such propor
tions of scale, grandeur and utility as befit the
dignity of the see of .the metropolis of the
British empire. The style will be early English.
A considerable sum has already been con
tributed toward the undertaking.
On December 2, a solemn Requiem Mass, for
the repose of the soul of Bossini, the great
composer, was sung at the Italian Church, Hat
ton Garden, London.
Archbishop Manning is expected at Rome
about Christmas, and will probably take part
in the preparatory conferences relative to the
Council.
Ought To, But Can't.-A befogged Ritualist
writing to a high church journal, describes his
case in the following not very clear manner:
For nearly 300-years the holy sacrifice of the
:Mass has been set at naught. The doctrines of
purgatory, invocations and intercessions of the
blessed saints, the due reverence and honor of
our Lady, the mother of God and Queen of
Heaven, and the whole Catholic faith alto
gether, have been denied. The seven sacra
menits of the Church have been denied. Now,
however, we have got the sacrifice of the mass
daily offered on our altars; the Cathblic doc
trines of purgatory, intercession of saints, and
muasuses and prayers for the dead are nbw re
stored. The faith of our fathers is now once
more taught in its integrity. Those who teach
these.things are told that they ought to join
the Roman Church. I, for one, should be only
too glad to go to that church, if I dared to do
such a thing. But to do such a thing would,
in this country, where we have a sacerdotal and
apostolic priesthood, be as great an act of
schism as going to the Methodist meeting
house. We are placed by God in the English
Church, and there we are going to stop to carry
out the unsearchable will of God."
A Very Christian Archbisthop.-The following is
a sapecimen of the Christian charity which pre
vails in the hearts of the dignitaries whose
church the late elections have decided to dis
endow:
The Archbishop of Armagh lately made the
