,rnilng Star and Catholic Messenger, SSW easLEA SoassAa, ranavAZY 1. 1574. vrem Our Ova Cinespndeat.l ova =iiiLarTza. Duaw, January 8, 1874. The'contest now proceedling in Limerick Is one of very great interest for many reasons' and the attention not only of all Ireland, but of England and Scotland too, is directed to it, as may be aeen by the oapious reports concern. Ing it whloh are every day published in the English and Scotch, as well as the Irish news papers. First, it will be the first county eleo tion in Ireland under the ballot, and what the farmers of Limerick will do under the ballet will certainly be done by the farmers of every other county in Ireland outside of Uliter* Secondly, the candidates for the vacaant seat have attraoted more than ordinary attention. I do not now take account of the individual named Reeves who has thought fit to issue an address in which he announces himself a Con servative opposed to Home Rule. He has con feesedly not the slightestchance of triumphing and be bas not atirred yet in the way of can vassing. I allude to Mr. William Henry O'Sul-' van and Mr. John J. Kelly. The former is a hotel-keeper and farmer, a simple, honest intelligent man, as true as steel to Ireland, antd ready to do anything whatever that Is honora ble, to secunre the success of the national cane. He was imprisoned in 1887 on susapicion of being a Fenian, and his son was also impris oned for the same reason, and what manner of man he is may be judged from the fact that he was offered and refused the release of his son on the condition of respectfully asking for it. Snch is William H. O'Sullivan, of Kilmal look, and his address to the electors is quite in accordance with his character. Fully, ex plicitly, and in ringing terms, he goes in for Home Rule, denominational education, fixity of tennre at valued rents for thetenant farmer, the liberation of thi political prisoners, and other measures of importance and interest to the people of Ireland. Mr. O'Sullivan is, of course, a Catholic, and as to his physical ap. pearance, I can say from personal knowledge that he is a splendid specimen of the hnman race. He is over six feet in height and has a -handsome face and a bright, healthy com plexion. Mr. Kelly had never been heard of by the general public till he issued his addreses, He is a young Catholic aristocrat with plenty of money; does not appear to be very clever, but professes himself of the same politiecal creed as Mr. O'BSullivan, though his addreas to the electors is not half so expiloit. Although Mr. Kelly was the firat to take the field, he Is not the popular candidate. As soon as he ap peared before the electors, several objections were taken to his candidature:-that he had been a Home Rnler for only two or three weeks; that he had done no service to his country; that he was related to and had the patronage of the old rotten Whig party of the county; and, above all, that he was the son of the son of the greatest exterminator Limerick ever produced, and should, before attempting to get into Parliament, follow the example of Captain Nolan of Galway, and restore the evicted families to their old homed or give them adequate compensation for having been sent adrift on the world. Accordingly, the Farmer's Club called together a meeting of delegates from every parish in the country to select a proper candidate. This meeting was held on New Year Day in the Theatre Royal, Limerick, and was very well attended, several Catholic priests being amongst those present. It resulted in all but the unanimous seleotion of Mr. O'Sollivan as the popular candidate, and since then the great mass of the people may fairly be said to have ratified the decision of the meeting. For whereas Mr. Kelly has been regularly hunted from every town into which he has gone to ask for votes or to ad dress the people, and has been compelled to confine himself to holding private meetings in hotels, Mr. OSullivan has been received ev erywhere with open arms, has addressed vast audiences in the open air amidst the most en thusiastic demonstrations of applause and the most ardent expressions of welcome, and has secured.the support of the leading members of all the middle classes. The objections against Mr. O'oSullivan are that he is too advanced a Nationalist, and that he is not what is called an educated man. As to the firat, it is certainly strange, almost incomprehensible, that any Home Ruler should advance it; and as to the second, Mr. O'oSullivan appears to be a better speaker than Mr. Kelly, and is certainly much more competent to speak in the House of Com mona than three-fourths of the members of that assembly. Besides, an honest man, even though he be wanting in culture, is any day to be preferred to an accomplished rogne; and no one denies Mr. O Sullivan the merit of hon esty. It is most unfortunate that the Dean of Limeriok (Dr. O'Brien) and a considerable number of the clergy have taken sides against the people by espousing the cause of Mr. Kelly. ill of those clergy probably are Home Ralers, and all of them have no doubt acted from pa triotie motives. Some of them took up Mr. Kelly before Mr. O'Sallivan was put forward by the great oounty meeting, nuder the Im pression that no possible objection could bp taken to that young man by the people at large, and now feel bound in honor not to de sert him. Others, no doubt, gathered by his side when Mr. O'uallivan was unwarrantably represented by some of his supporters an t Fenian oandidate. Others, again, there are who heartily wish souess to Mr. O'Snllian, but hold aloof from him lest it might be said iey were spporting a Fenian. But all the jriests are not on one side. As for Dean O'Brien who said on Snnday last in his parish church that the eleotlin of Mr. O'Sallivan would be a disgrace to the county, and who has thus rendered himselt most unpopular, most good Irishmen are extremely sorry that so well-meaning a man should have made sucb a mistake. He has had more than one tussel with the advanced Nationalists-notably, at one time, with that brave little man, Father Lavelle; and, altbhogb he ha( la Ma* epla ion of many, a was to leave him under a cloud of unpopalarity. This unpopularity he was gradually wiping out and, in fhot, he had rehabilitated himself la the good graces of the great mass of the people, when thisb esponsal of Mt. Kelly's cause undid the whole busiease. In his own town of Newcastle and, In fact, opposite his house, one of the fneat of Mr. O'Sullivan's meetings has been held; what a pity it is that he was not there to lead and guolde his peoplel I If the reader asks what do I think will be the result of tbhis remarkable eontest, I say at once that I have a strong opinion that Mr. O'Sullivan will be returned bye sweeping majority. And if this shoald be, the most sigonificant and im portant eleotoral victory for the cause of Home Role and Tenant Rights achieved for years, will be won. Mr. O'Sullivan will be a strange figure in the House of Commons. There will be no other man there like him. The English will assuredly be very much strouok when they see Mr. Moneell-an aristocrat, a polished courtier, a staunch friend of the infamous Union-succeeded, after an undisputed reign of twenty-six years, by a man of the people, a man taken, as it were, like Cincinnatus, from the plough, a man of rough speebch, and a down right enemy of the present English coercion who won't ever shake hands or dine with or take any favor from any minister. J. J. C. Priests in Irish Polities. The annexed letter, from Mr. A. M. Sulliven, editor of the Dublin Nation, ap pears in a recent number of the New York ierald : NATION OFrrIC, DUBLIN, Dec. 218, 1873. To the Editor of the Herald . Your special Commissioner, who recently visited Ireland to investigate cad report to you upon the Home Rule question, while necessarily condensing his account of a rather protracted interview with me, has, unintentionally, conveyed inaccurately the substance of one portion of our conversa tion. I allude to that which dealt with the past and present positron and influaence of the Catholic clergy in Irish politics. His questions were very searchingly dir ected, and pressed as to the idea very pre valent in England-that the Catholio clergy exercised a despotic power over their flooks in political affairs, compelling them, by spiritual influence, to vote in blind and Unreasoning submission to the dictates of the Bishops or priests. I pointed out that the fact the Catholic clergy undoubtedly were followed with unquestioning obe dience and undoubting adherence in all our past political strpggles, and were In fact, our only leaders, visible or actual, had given rise, no doubt, to this idea. But I satisfied him, I should hope, that this was the loyalty of discipline, the trust of well proved confidence and affection, and the obedience of free will, and not the blind submission of slaves. I explained by a reference to the penal times (many of the effects of which still survive) how it came to pass that our clergy were absolutely necessitated to discharge for us these on erous funnctions of political leadership, and I ialluded to the many public declarations on their part that once the Irish voter was free (as he is made now by theballot), they would, as far as regarded sunch exclusive leadership, voluntarily quit the scene. Your Commissioner asked what force there was in the allegation or apprehen sion that, if we had Home Role, the Cath olic clergy would dominate our Parliament. I was able to point to the fact-made plain in several of our recent elections-that, in matters purely political, the Irish electors were now able to act for themselves, and that even the most Catholic constituencies in Ireland exercised, independently, their own judgment in these matters, in one or two instances stoutly and resolutely con testing elections with their old-time lead ers and all-time friends-the clergy. In reply to questions as to the action of the Catholic clergy in recent elections, I re ferred to Kerry, where they almost unani mously supported the national candidate, though a Protestant; to Longford, where they as unanimously and most bitterly op posed Mr. Martin; and to Meath, where, though not on the national side for that time, they acted fairly and honorably. Finally, I expressed my conviction that, although the ionfluence of the Catholic cler gy in Ireland is sure to be always power ful, and certain, on the whole, to be into accord with the popular feeling, yet the day is gone when they could exercise, or would wish to exercise, the sort of leader ship which peculiar circnmeta.ces, in by gone times, had forced upon them. The people are now educated ; as voters, they are now free. They will use that education and freedom manfully, intelligently and independently. But they will always gratefully remember the leaders, but for whose heroism and fidelity they would not now possess either school or franchise. Z ought to apologize for this trespass on your space with a matter somewhat per sonal. Let me, however, add a word to thank you, on behalf of my countrymen, for the tribute you have paid to the im portance of their national movement by specially comioissioning a gentleman who fills a high place in British literature, to prosecute an impartial and independent investigation Into the history, character and prospects of the Irish national ques tion. I remain, sir, yours faithfully. ALEXANDER M. SULLIVAN. P.8.-I would ask any journals which may have quoted the commnaications of your Commissioner, to which I refer, to do me the favor of quoting this note also. Not a great distance from the capital or Chili there is a lonely grave, in wbhoh a man who was dying without hope now reposes with the blessIngs of religion. At the moment when human hope was vain, and when the cries of the widow and orphans distracted the man's thoughts and rent asunder his beart, a travelsr entered the hones of mourning. The expiring sainner fixed his eyes on the angel of mercy, his heart softened, and he wept. He saw and acknowledged the mysterious bonaty of God, and cried aloud for the mercy which he received. The stranger closed the sinner's eyes, aod with his own hand dog the exile's grave. He wrapped the dead body in his own linen and carried ii to its anaihome. He planted a wooden Cross at at his head and a wid rose at his feet That missionary was the present Pontiff of the Oburchb PIlalX. - A reet Collsetiea rf uly 3t.5.. Fresmeaes JansaLl The Very Rev. J. M. Gertner, Mission ary of the Institute of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and Pastor of the Solavoaian Church of St. John Nepomnaoes, at Milwaukee, has lately returned from Europe, bringing with him a very large number of holy Relis very much the largest, in fact, that has ever been is one repoeltery, in this ceun try. These relies are, at the present time, and will remain till the firat of aext meath, in the repositorv "Chapel of the Church of the Most Holy Redeemer, in Third street, near Avenue A. As some of the daily papers, without wrong intentions, have made representa tions In regard to this collection of Relics that are not correct, and that are annoying to Father Gartner. we will give a little ac count of them. The troubles in various parts of Italy, and the danger of desecra tions in churches in various places, as well as the confiscation of so many churches in Rome, has caused a vast many relies to be seat to the Sacred Treasury, or Reposi tory, of the Vatican. It is thus that the Guardian of the Re pository, with the consent of the Cardinal Vicar, Patrizi, has at his disposal, for be stowal on foreign churches, an unusual number of these holy Relies. Father Gart ner was most anxionus to obtain for the United States as many as possible of these; and Cardinal Patrizi most kindly encou raged this desire-saying that America had, hitherto, received comparatively few; and-ttat he hoped sending a large number hither. would increase for this interesting region the intercession of the Saists, and inflame the devotion of the faithfal here. FatherGartner also obtained from Venice, with the consent of the Cardinal Patriarch, some most precious Rellos. Among those now in the Chapel of the Redemptorist Church there is the largest piece of the Sacred Cross, we suppose, that has ever been in America. It is one inch and two lines in length, composed of smaller pieces, most skillfully put together. Another, most precious, is one of the Sa cred Thorns, from the Crown of Our Lord. The point of this Thorn is broken off, and it is, reasonably, supposed that it was so broken at the time of the mocking at the Pretorium, when Our Divine Lord was smitten on His Sacred Head with the reed in the hands of the executioner. The usage, in removing a particle from any of Thorns, has always been, not to break it, but, with a very sharp knife, to remove a particle from its side, to make the special relic. Space would fail to recount all the pre oious relies, and rare ones, in this collec tion. The effect on Catholics visiting snuch a treasury is very solemn, and leaves a wholesome reoollection afterwards. Father Gartner very kindly, almost every evening, opens this Repository to veneration, and gives some explanation to the faithful who visit it at the set hour. A very injurious impression has obtain ed, somewhere, that Father Gartner takes afie for admission to behold and venerate these Relics. This, of course, could not be, nor did Father Gartner ever think of such a thing; nor would the Fathers Re demptorists have permitted it. The mis take may have arisen from the fact that Father Gartner has with him, also, a very excellent Panorama of the Grotto and Church of Our Immaculate Lady of Lourdes, both of the interiors and of the surroundings, including the pool outside of the railing of the Grotto, from which the miraculous water of Lonrdes is bottled, that has wrought so many renownecdcures in the United States, as well as elsewhere. This is a very interesting thing to see, es pecially for those who have obtained mark ed graces for themselves or for their friends by the devout application of the water of Lourdes. The Father has, likewise, an other Panorama, of the Holy places in Rome. These are open for observation each evening, at 7 o'clock, and a small fee is taken for viewing these Panoramas-the proceeds going to the support of the meri torious and poor Mission among the Scla ronians in the Northwest, to which Father Gartner has devoted himself. It is his purpose to visit the principal cities in the United States, with the treasuares of piety, and of interest, that he has gathered. Archbishop Lyncy in Rome. AN INTERESBTING LETTER. The following letter from the Most Rev. Archbishop Lynch, of Toronto, to the Rev. Father Prior, of St. Joseph's Monastery, Clondalkin, will be read with interest: ROME, Irish College, Feast of St. Thomas, Dec. 21, 1873 Rer. and Dear Father Prior:-I have seen your Father-General yesterday, and am happy to inform yen that he gives all permission necessary for your brothers to accompany me to Canada. He refers me to your Provincial to settle matters finally. He will give me a letter to bear his good will to you, and his blessings for those of your community who will undertake this great work of founding a house of your Order, the first in America. It is sad to think that up to the present time Irish communities of men have not been able to fonud institutions from Ireland in Ame rics. I hope the effects of the Penal Laws against religious communities will rapidly decline, and permit these excellent aids to the progress of faith and morality to spread to sew lands. In the old times the Irish monks carried the faith to the nations of Europe. Now it is the Irish nuns and Irish students that leave home and country to preserve the faith of their couotrymen abroad. You will be gratified to lears the Holy Father blesses the nodertakiog from his inmost soul. His Holinses yearns for the spread of the true faith in the New World. I therefore beg of yon to have your little colony prepared to accompany me to Canada early in March. The health of the Holy Father Is excellent. There is a great change is the Eternal City. Straogers do not fock to Rome as in the days of the Popes. Instead of sixty thou sand winter visitors, there are not now.six thousand. Conventa are suppressed on every side; there hsve been at least sixty seised. The King is erecting immense buldiogs to keep the working class em ployed; but the taxes are fearful. Poverty prevaile. The merchants and botel-keepers are in despair. The nobility are keeping aloof from the Court of Victor Emmanuel -tsught by the traditions of their ances tors, they know usorpations are shert-lived in Rome. The Quirinal, where the Popes have been elected, and where the King now resides, is Interdieted for sacred functioes, and the King and other membeos of his family have to go out for M w (that is when they do ge). Ipresame thoe thieves deoa't feel quite at home la their ausurped plaees. They cannot term their eyes any wheae withoat seeing the memeatoes of the Popes; and to remove them would be to tear down half the Palace. The hell of the Sacred Consistory is new a baI room. "The Star of Empire" is geing West. Religion persecat here, seeks triumph in America. As edacation is the battle of the day I trust, with the blesasing of God, youn will succeed in the dioeess of Toronto, and that your bone will be the mother of many similar institutions destinaed for the alvation of many Irish chiidren. and that yeou will find many young men to rvolusteer to accompany yoe or to enter your com munity at Clondalkin to prepare themselvee for the glorious work of spreadiag the faith and devotion to Our Lady of Monet Car mel in America. We have excellent Brothers of the Christian Schoole from France, bat they are not able to supply the one-tenth of the demands for branches of their Order. Bishops on every side are calling for good, holy religious to found solidly in America, not inaptly called by the Americans, the Irishab church. We are better off in Canada than in the United States as regards eduoeation. There they are obliged to pay taxes to the godless shobools. With us the Catholics are only obliged to pay taxes to their own schools, and, besides, we have a percentage from the general school fund for every child we can collect into the schools. So you see, my dear brother, the di8fficulties before us are not so many. Wishing you every bleaslng and the protection of our Holy Mother, I am yours sincerely in Jesse Christ, t Jouxn JossPn LYNCH, Archbishop of Toronto. Treating the Wrong Disase.
