To thk Editor ok rur: Ukrald:?
Your 1-sue of April 2S Should possess in tbe eyes
of Amcrica n citizen* a turr.incauce iar beyond
that whicti n?fuch? h to a glowing, eloquent aud
oxnaiisilve description of a novel ecclesiastical
ceremony, tnonnit never so itaponiag. A marvel
lous pen-picture It surely Is of au event markiug a
new era in the ecclesiastical history of this conn
try and of the i ntlie Continent.
What did Cathoilci see In thH ceremony t
Simply that a single century of liberty ha* solle
vetopcJ the lloman Catholic body in tlil^ country
that tbelr bishops am given seats m tne lapal
tea ale, in the highest administrative council of
tbat iHurc:i whlc.i has witnessed the birtn and
groftib oi evury Uvii coustitu lou iu cuiiRicauom.
H the highest office la tfee TTatt?<l Stat,mis ac
cessible to the man of lowliest birth, provided he be
a native of tills Republic, even 10 the child born
to-day of the emigrants arrived among us but yes
terday, go, notthur more nor less, Is the lo.'tleu
eminence in the Catholic Cltu ch, even the Chair
of Peter, made accessible to every Catholic priest,
be he boru as lowly as Hndebrandt or Slxius V.
To catholics there is no other signiacance in the
ceremony of last Tuesday. That man wtio stood
so meekly on the altar steps of Si. Patrick's
Cathedral and seemed to bow nis bead to receive
the highest honor of the Roman purple as if he
were about to bo crowned with thorns, Is In very
deed tne son of emigrant parents, born In lowly
condition and risen step by step to his present
eminence through the sheer Impelling force of his
native goodness, winning love and a good name
irom all within tils communion and without.
it lias ever been the boast of American citizens
that the social equality guaranteed by our tederal
constitution makes every, native-born freeman
clieible even to the Chief Magistracy of the Repub
lic: it can, since last Tuesday.be the boast of
every American C.itholie?why should I not say of
every American oitlzen ??that the first dignity in
the Christian Church, a place among the long line
of Sovereign Pontiffs stretching 1800 years buck to
St. Peter, is no* accessible to every boy born on
American soil.
Among the boya wha ministered on Tuesday
I morning in the sanctnary of St. Patrick's, or the
: throngs of their fellows who eagorly watched out
side lor one glimpse of the Cardinal's robes or a
I parsing smile irom hlsiatherly countenance, there
whs not one, peroiiance, who did not feel, as lie
looked upon tne pale teatures and shrinking form
ol the Prince of tne Church, th u he might himself
i be one day exalted to thai same proud statiou by
learning, labor and spotless purity of life.
Any one who ?ives other significance than this
to the elevation of our Archbishop to the Cardl
naline misunderstands the policy of Pius IX. and
: the purposes of tlie Catholic Church, and mistakes
the prejudices of ins creed or education lor the
, doctrines and ulnis or his Roman Catholic fellow I
j citizens.
We may well rejoice, then, that the same equal
] Itv which throws open to true merit in every walk
Of society the hf/hest honors and trusts 01 tne
State now breaks down the barriers which have
; stood between American Catholics and the subilm- :
est office 01 the Papacy.
but there are pregnant lesaons to be learned
irom this event which marks the first centenary
of religious liberty noneatl the protection of our
Republic. It was the successor ot John Carroll ,
and Leonard Neaie in the see or Baltimore whose '
I hand plac -d the burretta on the brow of tne flrst I
I American Cardinal
I In the beginning or 1775 John Carroll, alter the
i suppression, by Clement XIV., of the religious so
ciety to which lie Had vowel Ills Hie and given its
j best years, hastened buck Irom Europe to aid witn
? nis lauillv lu tne couiiQg sr.ruirgle ior lndepend
I ence. We rind his brother. Jharies Carroll, of
I t.arrolitou, prominent lu that same year as a mem
i oer of the first "committee of observation." es
! tiblished at Annapolis;"and In I77<ia sp?uial reso
lution oi Congress oesires Charles Carroll "to
prevail upon Mr. John Carroll to accompany the
j committee to Canada lo ushisi tne in in such uiat
! ters as tliey shall think useful." This committee
compused Charles Carr.di himself. Benjamin
I rrankliu and Judge Samuel Cltass. Tlio z-al of
! the Carrolla and ol thu entire bo ly of Maryland
i Cutuolics for the cause of inucpendetice, aud
j the precious services rendered bv them, were
well known to Washington ami to Congress. Tne
| innueu 'o winch the amende.) constitution oi Mary
laud (the work of Daniel CarroJij hud lu the
I training of ths federal constitution is too neil
i known to need snoclal mention here; but It will
luterest tne reader to be told, In tins year of grace,
i 1875, wuen goinetnwg like a cry of alaiui is raised
: at this pliuniom ol a Papal aggression, that it was
! the instructions of Washington that Benjamin
r'rmiklin. in 1780, while ambassador at Paris, oo
< taiued from Rome the appoiutment of John Car- I
r"*l jy Vicar General ol to* American Cnurch in
the United states, and later as first Bisriop of
1 Baltimore. Thus we may reokou among the
fouuaera of the Roman Catholic hierarchy iu this
Republic the very founder* of that Republic itself
' just a* certainly us we must acknowledge among
I tne fathers oi American independence not oniy
Charles Carroll, ol Carroilton, out tne Jesuits
Jonu Carroll and Leonard Nealc. Nor did Wash'
ingtoii and Franklin, when Independence bad
I been wou, tuink that the Romau Catholic faith
should die out wiui their mends the Carroiis.
I liiey, too. aided, by eveiy means ihey could em- 1
ploy, tlie establishment of the flr?tCatholic college
in tne very heart and csntre or tie I'm n?at
| Georgetown. Over tue prog ess of that buiidiug
?> ashiugtou watcaed witu as inech care almost
as Joan Carroil lumseif. And toe visitor is still
i spown tne tree In the college courtyard to whlcu
i the -Father ot his Country" tteo his horse when
he duly rode out to visit bis iriend and walk
, rouna with him to mspect tne progress of tue
j new edifice.
i hat the love of the Carroila for the Union which
they contributed to fouud nad not died out after
) the lapse of a century one lact chosen among
many may i idicate here. A descendant of Charles
Carroll, tlghtiug for ine Union during the late
j war, was stricken down by a mortal wouud on
the battle field, itiere was no priest nlgn to hear
the tfylng man's confession ana give him the ao
aoluiiou he craved. But, calling his most trusted
j officer fa Protestant) lie forced nlm to receive nis
lini couie^dluu, ho unci Dim t?y soiumn prom
i?e to repeat It lu Ins name to a catholic priest
at tn? nr?t opportunity, and expired happy at
liiiviDff fulfilled iluty to hi* country ami nis
Oed. When, later, his Protestant iricmt, with
i streaming ey ?, besought tho flrnt priest lis met
to hear this conlession, do you, reader, marvel
that the miuistei of Goa was as Incr. dulous at
first as he was alterward moved by the recital of
an act of pictt only parcelled by that of Bayard,
k ehrraiter *u us iwur ?< so nt rtprochti t
Han Washington and Prankdu lived to behold
wnat New Yor* witnessed last luesday, think vou
thev would have felt alarmed at th? progress
iu this land of tne Camoiie Church or at
tue exaltation of an American Bishop to the rauk
ol cardinal i They would have rejoiced rattier, nor
would Benjamin Franklin's spirit rest till he had
ootaiued tor toe see ot Baltimore and the wortliv
successor of John Carroll the honor that has
come unsolicited and unexpected to tne successor
of John Ungues.
But since mis last treat name has come under
I my (itUj let me add, that had Providence spared
to the Lulon tney had saved Abraham Ltucolu and
William H. Howard, they would h?ve been botn
proud and happy to be central figures in last
luesday's celebration among tne dlunltailes
who witnessed the luauguratlon of the first Amcr
t lean CaMinal.
When trance, at the beginning of our calami
tons civil war, threatened to uphold the southern
Conlederacr it was on tne gieat Archmshopof
New \ ork tnat their choice fell to proceed to En
rope to ask the mediation of rne Holy Sec witn
the ?'reach Kmperor, In order to prevent h'2
giving effective aid or countenance to the Con

It !* not unknown th^t again and again they
solicited lor .vrenbishon Hugnes the honors of the
Cardiualate. assuredly they would not have seen
in the elevation ol hlu successor a design aiming
at the subversion of free Institutions or demo

METHODIST UNION IN CANADA.
The recent union of the Wesleyan aim New
Connection Methoaists in the Methodist Cnurcli of
Canada bus proved so barmomou* in action and
so hopeful or permanent good as to awaken a more
lively interest in other Methodist branches in the
question of joinlug in the plan of a united Cana
dlun Methodism, Outer the spur of thi* increased
interest an influential convention id' representa
tives, lay and clerical, ol the Primitive Methodist,
Cuurch, was held a lew data ago In Toronto. Aide
papers bearing on the question were presented,
| and careiuily considered uui inir a series of sessions
lasting throuijn two nays, ii nad been pruueutiy
and very wisely arranged in advance that, no vote
should be taken by tne (Jonvoution eitner lor or
against union, but the prevailing sentiment of the
i representative* was strongly iu lavur of a general
Methodist union.
WATER STREET MISSION.
In a quiet way the Water street Mission Is doing
a great work. It has to do with the lowest, the
vilest and most ignoraut of our population. Yet
the temperance reform has been pushed, and
many of the most uardened have been drought to
Christ. Ail the surroundings are evil, wholly evil,
and that continually, overtopping the songs o
praise are Hie oaths ol the blasphemers, separated
on 1 v by a thin partition. Prayers are disturbed by
tne revelry outside. On Wednesday nights nearly
two hundred men ami women, wlioni Ha tail lias
manned and wounded and left lor dead, gattier lor
worship. The life ol' tno Mission is a woman Who

FORTY-FOURTH STREET SYNAGOGUE.
SORBOW Ab AN INGREDIENT IN JOY?NAD A11 AND
ADIBU'ti SUDDEN DEATH.
The portion of Scripture read in this synagogue
yesterday related to the death of Nadab and Auttui,
the sons of Aaron, who offered strange lire before
the Lord contrary to the law, and lor which they
Were slain. The event is recurdud m Leviticus, X.
The Kev. b. M. Isaacs preached a sermon based on
a phrase In Habakuk's prophecy?"The righteous
uvotli in his laitk"?of which the sudden death of
those umaitblul son* ol Aaion served to illustrate
the point. HabaKUk, he said, prophesied in the
days of Daniel. lie remonstrated with God for
permitting the wicked to flourish, aud. he adds,
"1 will stand upon my watch and flet me tiuon the
tower, aud win watch to see wnat he shall say
unro me, ami what 1 shall answer wuon l am re.
proved," What proflt. the speaker asked, i* there
in the great riches o'f auy man wno knoweth not
nor honoreth God r ihe Lord, said the propuet, is
111 11 ir holy temple ; let all the earth keep silence
oefore hint. And uien, in the oousciou-ness tuat
sorrow is bul lor a snort time, comparatively, the
prophet utters a prayer that is iiardlv equalled in
tue whole Bible. Nadub and Abiou oien belore the
Lord because tluy offered strange nre to Him.
We are strange crca uies here oelow, growing
old aud careles-i, yet each man says to mmseii,
*'l am pure." We are given over to care; indeed,
we are born to trouble as the sparks lly upward.
Jaco'j songnt to end his da}s iu peace, but Ills
purpose was disturbed by tue tuought that Joseph
was no more, and his grav hairs were going down
to tue grave 111 sorrow. We all are but travellers
and piiurtui* here, whether we rule in carriages
or walK barefoot. Mr. l>aaus here reierrcd to
the boeavenienU of families, the sundering of
uomcstic ties and the great sorrow that usually
results irom such
shi'AHAnoNS ar death.
and then bade his hearer* not think that death
was Hie omy tormeutur. The dissunulauon of
laise irlends and tueir lorsauiug iu tunes of ad
versity and trouble are worse. If in me midst of
our glory we are reminded that we are but

if it wa* a lalsshood, We must take a mat view of
our conuitlou in il e. other* Have tukru tue < up as

THE BOONTON MYSTERY SOLVED.
On Friday last, after weeks of earnest and active
search on the part 01 boats ot citizens, the Newton
Sroltn mystery at Boontoo, N. J., was solved by
the finding 01 lir. Hnitn'i body. About a month
ago Mr. Smith, a well-to-do and popular saloon
keeper, started out for a day's ilack shotting on
t?e Passaic Kiver. Tnat day and tne next be
fal>ed to return, and then his frieuds became
anxious and subsequently alarmed. It waa known
that hf ii:n! ? tin" u"Id watch and a considerable
swiii of money witn Mm. Tne only /set <iia

nad hir.-d a hoar and pushed 01T ou the river. The
river wn? searched 1111 und down and the shore*,
nut no mini of him. altnoufh tne boat he hired
waa iouud capslaed with the dncas in the oo'iom,
wnicn Smith nan purchased irom a hunter before
starting. Divers 01 experience, Willi tneit appa
ratus were engaged Horn New York, but tney
found nothing. At last there was Honed up
by a villager smito's cost. Tne finding ol ttna
without the Imdy. it being a cold day wheu
Mini to stsrted, strengthened the general t?eli*r
tnat lie had been robbed ami murdered. At
on" time as many as two hunured persons
were scart-hiag ,or the body, but ta vain, Pinaiiy
toe search ?,.? given up. as a last hope tne
; friends applied to a clairvoyant In Newark, sno
told them all about Smith- (hat ts. all that lud
been air.eady published about the matter in ib<
newspaners. The irlends returned, made one
more effort,gnd lound tae body m tne river, near
where the coat nad t>ecn found. Smith's property
and rasii were lonad with the body, tm that the
murner theory Is kuocsed in the head. Deceased
