The manner Ia which st. Patrick's Day was
elsebraed th our little city, Is wetbh of note
in the olhemns of your truly Catholio and
widely readpaper.
The Hiobir Muotual Aid Association nem
ring 107 men n regalia, with their beautifu
banner in front, and ffty of their younger
boys i favors greenalntglng up the rear, at
11 'clock began their march to. the maslo of
the cornet band on tler way to St. Peter's
church, where HigiMass was celebrated. After
the services, the Rev. Father Ploberit delivered
most.eloquent sermon on the life of St. Pat
rick and the wrongs and faith of poor Ireland.
From the church the proeesseon moved
through the principal streets of the city,
greeted at every corner by friends and neigh
bors. Passing beneath triumphal arches bear
log Irish mottoes, fe-tooned windows from
which hung green flag, and fair hands waving
handkerbchefs. On Pearl street, the line was
nomet by the sweet little daughter of Mr. M.
McLaughlin, who presented a handsome floral
wreath to Mr. J. F. O'Sullivan, the President
of the Association, with which he crowned the
Hiernian banner on the spot.
A perfect banquet was laid is the hall for
the Assooation by the ladies, where, wtqly
their guests, the Governor and State offioers,
Mississippi editors-that day assembled in
convention here-and other frlends, the after
noon passed in a "feast of rseeason and a ow

The skies were not so bright as one would
rish, nor the prospects of a fine day at all
lattering to the hundreds in this city who
have loked forward with deep anxlety to the
feast day of St Patrick, and its usual attend
ant ceremonies and pleasures.
The streets were very muddy, consequently
one Important feature was taken away, and
the ja ewas limited to a taour of the side
wal, nd to the Nicholeon pavement.
At 10 o'loek, the Hibernian Benevolent
Assoation had assembld its members, com
rmising In alnearl one hundred men and
om tereall repoired to t. Peaul's ouro
where a and igh Ms was celebrated by
Father oanment. The church was erowded:
Father Leray delivered an eloquent oration
upon the life of the great Saint, which was
listened to with marke attention. After Mass
the proeession formed and moved to the St
ter's Convent where it was met by a be of
street Uittile girls beautifully attired In white,
anthd lding rare and fragrant Bowes in their
ands. In he midst of te stood Miss Au
gast. Bannon with an elegant large wreath of
green in her hand, whieh she held out towards
the members. In a lear, di stinct voice, the
young lady eas follows
Ojsesed eanss eof As RaBrssasa Secisy :
-ro rown your banner today becomes our

in the name of religion and patriotism, on the
celebration of this festival so glorious to Ire

tried and loyal hearts, who, wherever they
may wander on th sse face of theearth, kp ever

hearts who hear it. -
The train-bearers were Misses Katie Bodge,

Captain Hartigan, President of the Assoota

Tuesday night the Cathollo ohuroh was filled
with an Intelligent audience to hear the lecture
of Father Quinon on St. Patrick.
Father Quinon is a Frenchman, and while
his control over the English language Is very
good, yet the beauty and the force of his loc
ture could not be as well understood from
hearing it delivered as by reading it.
Tbe s ubjeet was well handled, and Ireland's
Patron Sains weas placed before the hearer in
his trnue charaoter. N. Irishmen but what felt

While in New Orleans, lst week, wereoeived
a cordial and pressing invitation to attend the
Lenten services at 8t. Anne's Church. We ao
cepted with many thanks, and, on Tuesday 1
the 3rd inst., found ourselves within the sacred i
precincts of th.beautifully built and artisti
cally arranged place of worship, St. Anne's
Church. The oongregation, composed of the
' elite' of the Crescent City, was quite a large
one. We arrived, we are exceeding sorry to
stare, at the close of the' pathetie and well
delivered sermon of the Rev. Father Miot of
the Cathedral. He chose as text: "The t
Prodigal Son "-and handled it in a most m-- I
te-ly maUner. Theuoremonies were performed
by the Rev. Father Tomoino, pastor of the
Church. Before the "Benediction of the
Blessed sacrament," the congregation was
edifed by selected pieces from the meet dis
tinguished composers, such as Mosars Meyer.
beer, eta. It was really splendid, and we can
not remember being so oompletely enthrlled
by the power #of muns before. Several voices,
remarkable for thpir beauty, blended in har
monious unison in the miagnlcent "0!
Salntaris." The oharming and accomplished
Miss Theresa Cannon, organist of the Chureh,
possesses a beautiful messo-soprano voice,
whieh unites richneesof tone with great power
and purity. Her remarkable talent-it would
not be too much to say gmnlus-is well reoog- a
nied. and she is always certain of being ad
mired by those who have had the felicity to
have the demon of weariness exorcied by the
divine influence of mselo through her. 8he is
always appealed to, when concerts and Chari
table Fairs are given, and the appeal is never
in vain. Although very oung, not yet out of
her teens, she conducts the choir of Ut. Anne's
Church with a skill anrod management which
deserves the greatest praise.

what Bismarek aks is that be and his police
maybave power given into their bands to
derive any bishop or priest of the right to

lawry, over the prelates and clergy of the
Church he hates,ýjid means to trample into
the dust--if A ea. Ay, there's the rub ;
greater then Bismare 'have tried and
failed.
Social .Danger.-,That the Government
and Belebstag would be better employed
in warding of the dangers which threaten
the State and all social order, than in op
pressing the Catholic Church, is made very
clear by the speech of the Sooial Democrat,
Deputy Haseelmann. The House was
discussing a measure which had been in
troduced tocheek the frequent violation of
contract by workmen's strikes, and the
intimidation by' which workmen were
forced to take part in strikes. When Has
selmann rose to-spaklrhbdid not hesitate
openly to threaten the authority of the
8tate. and the proprietary classes. With
50,000 thalers, which he had already at his
command, he declared to the Assembly that
in spite of the measure before them he
would induce 5,000 men to enter into a
strike which should not last less than four
months, anudwhieh be wduld know how to
defend by the law, and by the help of the
legal executive. "You are wronging," he
continued, "four millions of workmen, who 1
carry your muskets in time of war, who
fight your battles, who have derved as
soldiers for three years and know how to I
use their weapons. And when these men
are wronged, let me tell you, they do not
forget the wrong very easily. Till now In
Germany we have kept the eonficot within I
legal limits. We leave it to our enemy,
Capital, to break down the bridge of the
law. But in a neighboring country, in
France, our friends have already broken
down the bridge; the deceived Proletariat
took up arms against the plunderers of
Versaillse, agalt those brndit* of order;i
who have been executing their victims I
during these long years, and rioting is
blood. But Germany will not be spared
thi conict between labor and Idlenes,
between Cpital and' Labor, between toil i
and the greed of pleasure."
Ooajfaatifonu.-However, men seem blind
to such dangers. The Churchb, which alone
man adequately help soeietyto guard against
them, must be destroyed once for all.: We
iear from the Diocese of Treves, that fifty.
or sixty priests have already been con.
lemned to imprisonment, that is as many
as have been ordained and have received
appointments since last autumn. The
sentence is already being carried out. The
Bishop himself oeendemned to pay enormous
fines aesnot long escape sharing the fate of
the Archbishop of Posen. It is much the
same in other dioceses. The confiscations
indeed to which the Bishops are snbjected
are not attended by any great results.
hbere was very little to confiscate in the
Archiepiscopel palace at Cologne, as the
greater part of the" furniture was long
since settled on the see. The personal
property of the Archbishop which the State
was enabled to eonfiscate, sold for about
460, and theparobased goods found their
way back gain Into the Archbishop's
rooms as a loan. The sale of the conrs
cated goods of the Prince Bishop of
Brelaua,rised however a sum of £1,350.
Most of them werebought in by the chapter
and returned atonce to the Bishop's palace.
Things passed off differently at Munster.
An eye-witness *pnds us the following
account: "It beoalme known in the city
that the publiasuctioa~.of the confiseated
-ds of the Bishop was to take place to
day. About nine o'clock the auctioneer
and an officer of the court and two work
men went to the Bishop's palace to take
lway the furnlture and bring it to the
Sessions-house where it was to be publicly
sold. They had considerable dieculty in
securing the serviessof these two workmen,
all others had excused themselves on the
ground of other engagements, or on similar
pretexts. The work went rapidly forward,
tables, sofas and chairs, were brought into
the palace-yard; meanwhile a great crowd
bhad been gathering" about the place, and
before long the whole square in front of
the Cathedral was ocnp ed by lookers-on,
who very unmistakably expressed their
indignation at the proceedings at the
palace. All of a sudden, however, the
whole crowd broke into cheers and cries of
" Bravo!" The two workmen had abon
doned the job and left the palace. After
applauding the men, the crowd vo
ciferously hobeered the Bishop. Fresh
and loud demonstrations of approval fol
lowed, when a number of spirited lads,
from 19 to 14 years of age, meetly scholars
at the Gymnelaum (Government school)
began to carry baek into the palace the
artels of furniture which had been
brought out, or to hide them somewhere In
the couart, while the diseomfted nuctioneer
had to look oenquley. It w quite hope
Iss to seek te, enslstanes elsewhere.' A
etalwart Israelite, who was offered a couple
of thalers if be weold lead a bhelping heeand,
refused the bribe wlth''a "God forbl "
Eventually the aoetioner, ea instruetions
received from his betters, had to announoce
that the sale was put of fgr to-day.
Hurrabs and cheers again burst forth, has
and cape were thrown iato the air, sad all
that remained of the farnitere was ecmaried
back into thepalaoe in thb ' twinltng of an
eye.'"

Ax Ora-PFAsamows* Horam.-ome time
ago a Mrs. Bckelby, .ho lives over in
Berrin county, Miobig a directed her son
Samuel, a lad of fteeu years, to take a
tarn at the churn. Now, as Samuel had
set his heart en goilgsrshing at that very
time, "he got his bi Up," ad Ratly re
fused t-gitate the crena. The crvature
was promptly taken out of his spine by a
slipper, and, with "tears in his eyes," he
went on duty with. the dasher. In about
half an hoar, and during the brief absence
of his mother, his eyes fell upon a plate of
fly poison, and a bright, smart thought
itruck him. Just before Mrs. Buekelby
came in, Samuel, lifted the fatal plate to
his face, and as shbe entered be put-the
"poison" from his lips with the dramatic
exolamation : "There, mother, I guess you
won't lick me no more I" Now what did
this Spartan dame dot Did she shriek for
a doctor, and fall into hysteries: Not munh.
She aimply took Samuel by the nape of the
neck, lifted him deftly into -the pantry

told him Cesngulf the same instantly; be
refusing, sie called the hired girl and in a
twinkle Sam found himself outside the al
bumen. Then Mrs. Buckelby began pre
paring a mustard emetie. Seeing this,
Sam's pluck dissolved, and be commenced
begging, orying, "I was only trying to
skeer ye." But the stern mother was not
to be softened, and Samuel had to swallow
the mustard. He was then forced to take
a dose of pain-killer, and had his back
rubbed with "Vigor of Life," and his
stomach with the "Oil of Gladness." Then
he vomited up everything but his boots
and socks. This being over, he took sev
en pills, two spoonfuls of castor oil, a tea
spoonful of salts, and a blue pill. And
now, If you want to behold the maddest
boy in Michigan just say "fly poison" to
Sam Buckelby.
FAnTHB BoUKx ox CATHOLIC Max.-A
Catholic man may sin, like other men ; he
may be false in every relation of life ; he
may be false in the domestic circle ; he
may be false socially ; he may be false po
litically ; but one thing you may be sure
of-that he either does not go to confession
at all, or, if he goes to eonfmesion, and
comes to the holy altar, there is an end to
his falsehood, there is an end to his sin;
and the whole world around him, in the
soeial circle, the domestle eirle, the poll
ticle circle receives an absolute guarantee,
an absolute proof that that man must be
all that I have described the Christian man
tobe--a man in whom every one, in every
relation of life, may trust and confide.
This is the test. Do not speak to me of
Catholics who do not give us this test.
When a Catholic does not go to the ssacra
ments, I equld no more trust in him than
in any other man. I say to yoo, do not
talk to me about Catholicsa who do not go
to the Sacraments. I have nothing to samy
of them, only to pray for them, to preach
to them, and tq beseech them to come to
this holy Sacrament, where they will ind
grace to enable them to live up to the
prinples, which they had forCeab. But
give me the practicl, Intoeletual Catholio
Sman-the man of faith: give me the man
of human power and intelibnce, and the.
Shigher power, divine prinple and divine
love. With that, man, as with the lver
