THE EXPELLED REDEMPTORISTS.
HOW A MILITARY GOVERNMENT REWAItDS
ITS BEST BERVANTS.
TIlE CRIME OF EIN .4G A PRIEST.
eligioa a sanger to the New German Empire.
, From the N. T. Ta',let
On Friday evening, April 10, there ar
rived on board the steamer C. F. aFunch
from Antwerp, two of those arch-conspir
ators who have threatened the peace and
consolidation of the rew German Empire,
and caused tlhe great Prince Chancellor to
shiver in his shoes. The arch-conspirators
in question were two members of the Con
gregation of the lloly Redeemer, which in
common with the Lazarists and other So
cieties "affiliated" to the Jesuits have been
expelled by the German Empire. Of
course, neither the Redenmptorists nor any
other of tihe expelled Congregations are in
any sense "affiliated" to tile Society of
Jesuits, save in that of a comamon Cath
olicity ; but what matters that when the
German Government declares they are
The nanmes of thlese two terrible plotters
against the peace and prosperity of the
German Empire are Fathers lIolecher of
Bochum, Westphalia. and Schneider of
Altotting, Bavaria. T'.ey are at present
staying with Faith, r \Virtl, the Father
Rector of the Er demptorists' Mission at
173 East Third Street.
Thinking that an account of their ex
pulsion from their own lips might be of
interest to the readers of the Tablet, a cor
rei - ndlent called at 'Third Street on Sun
day evening, 12th inst., and on explaining
the purpose of his visit was very kindly
received by Father Wirth and several of
tire Fathers, and introduced immediately
to Father Iloleclher, whlo spoke in French
for the convenience of the correspondent.
The interview is given below.
Immediately on Father lIolscher enter
ing the rorm, I felt that I was in tile pre
sence of
A TiOR1N (ONSI'IItATOR.
Every characteristic of a plotter and
deep srlchmer was imprinted on tihe face
and the person of the man. lie is of the
middle stature; hair almost white as
snow ; spare of figure ; open and cheery of
countenance. Tile bright, pleasant black
eyes look into 3our face with the artless
ness of a child. The voice is pleasant to
bear. The whole air and bearing are most
engaging, and in the countenance there is
that look of quiet, yet cheerful content,
that only a life of mortification and piety
can give, and that speaks of one equal to
wlhatever fortune Gods sends. If all this
does not answer to the character of a born
conspirator, then am I very much de
ceived.
Father 'Schneider did not appear. It
was not necessary to trouble Ihim. Be
sides one conspirator at a timne I felt to be
as niuch as I could well manage.
Woold you inform me, Father, wihy you
and your Congregation were turned out of
Germany I

The Government then simply sent you

We were expelled because it was alleged
that we were ffiliated to the Jesuits.
But you were not affiliated to them T
No. Not only that, but the Bavarian
iunduest.rath the Itavariau deputies] on
hearing of the decree expelling the Jesuits
and all affiliated societies, represented in
the Imperial l'arliament that the Redemp
torists were not affiliated;
The Bavarians were attached to your
Congregation, then I '

Kr. L.ouis of Bavaria, the grandfather of
the pirsent king, who first introduced our
Congregation into Bavaria.
Ilow did that come about I
King Louis made frequent visits to the
Emperor of Austria. And just at that
time, while St. Alphonsus, our holy found
er, was still living, Father Hoffbuer who,
it is said. will speedily be honored with the
title of "Venerable," had introduced the
Congregation into Austria, King Louis,
who need to meet Father IIoffbuer on his
visits to the Emperor, was so pleased with
the Father that he insisted on introducing
the Congregation into Bavaria, and there
we have Ieen ever since, until our recent
expulsion.

It has absut 40,000() inhrabitants, ot whom
about 25000 are Catholics. It is a very
wealtniy place, in a famous manufacturing
district. Ci.se by, is the great manufactory
for Krupp cannon. Altotting itself is
ihmous for thre manufacture of bells. It is
more famous still as a place of pilgrimage

how did the Protestants take the expul
sion t
Well, they, perhaps, naturally rejoiced in
anything against the Catholics. Neverthe
less Catholics and Protestants stood on very
good terms. Many Protestants came to
express their sympathy with us.
The representation of the Bavarian depn
ties that the Redemptorists were not
" affiliated " to the Jesuits does not seem to
have been of much avail ?
No. They were not strong enough.
And King Louis, is not lie a Catholic.
Oh, he is only a bo3-Ile cares for

There were no Jesuits in havaria. They
were not allowed there. There was a soli
tary exception ; but nothing to speak
about.

Bochum a large place 1
Not nearly so important as Altotting.
But we had as vett fine mission there.
There was the Arch Confraternity of the
Holy Family, composed of men only-men
only mind-young and old. They used to
crowd the church every Sunday evening,
at 8 o'clock, remaining there until a quar
ter past nice, performing religious exercises
and devotions. Every year they made an
eight-day's Reitreat. Oh ! they were very
good.
And is the Arch-Confraternity broken up
by your departure t
Probably. The secular priests use the
church. liBut they have neither the time
nor the numbers to attend to matters of
this kind.
[lere the deep regret of the good Father
at the breaking up of such ties and such
good works was very plain and sad to wit
nOess.]
The last Redemptorist Father to quit
Bochum, was Father Zobel, a Tyrolean,
who is greatly celebrated throughout Gel
many, Alsaco Lorraine, the Tyrol, and
Austria also for conducting Missions.

Tell lile, Father, are you a German.
I I I am a Prussian. Father Schneidler
is a Bavarian.
Well, are you so very great a traitor ?
[Smiling amusedly.] I have been deco
rated twice.
For what ?
For servic, , during the war. I was at
Metz and Verdun, and in other places. I
had 8,000 men to attend to.
Were you the only Redemptorist on ser
vice during the war and decorated I
Oh no; there were several others, deco
rated also. Some of them were lay
brothers. We used to go about in our
habits as you see me now. [The Father
was dressed in the habit of the Congrega
tin. ]
What has become of all your Fathers T
They are scattered about. Many are
gone to Austria; many to Luxembourg,
which, though so near, is free, and not
Germany. We have purchased a new
Iouse there already. [And the good
Father smiled at this mild mode of cheating
Prince Bismarck, so to say. right under his
nose.] Every body regretted our expulsion.
lishop Martin, of Paderborn, sent us a
beautiful letter of farewell at leaving.
Iere Father Wirth, the Rector, who had
entered during the conversation, and took
part in it from time to time, informed the
correspondent that Bishop Conrad Martin,
of Paderborn, had been a great friend of
Archbishop Spalding's, and was on the
same Commission with him at the Vatican
Council.
Bishop Martin, said Father Holecher,
wrote us a most beautiful letter. lie said
that his best priests were going : but that
he did not pity those who were going so
much as the people who were left behind.
For the forner would soon find work to do,
but the latter would be left without their
pastors.
The following story comes from Vienna:
It is said the plani t Liszt found himself
recently in the company of a number of
ladies, who begged him in hyperbalical
terms to procure for them " the ecstacies,
the artistic raptures which his magnificent
talent inevitably produces." He obligingly
seated himself at the piano and played.
When he had finished, some of his admirers
had fainted. " Well." said Liszt, " I
played wrong notes all through, intention
ally; so badly, indeed, that I should have
been turned out of doors at any elementary
school of music!"

Among the bills passed by the Senate ol
r Virginia on the 17th of April was one
authorizing the establishment of a home
for indigent old people, which is to be
a built in this city. Mr. Shakspeare Cald
well, a gentleman of great means and en
larged liberality, originated this beneficent
measure of relief, which he proposes carry
lug out at his own ezlense. Below we
give the bill incorporating this '"Home" in
fall. To the sixth section we would direct
special attention :
AN ACT TO INCORPORATE "THE LITTLE SIS

large benevolence.
Catholic University of Georgia.
PI'EPAItATION FOR LAYING TIlE CORNER
STONE.
The Macon (Ga.) correspondent of the
Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle ,id .'entinel,
writes thus enthusiastically of the prepar
ations now being made for thie laying of
the corner- stone of the prop,)sl Catholic
University, in the former city :
On Sunday, the 31 day of May next, tihe
corner-stone of the great Catholic Univer
sity of Georgia will be laid in Maco. with
grand and imposing ceremonies. Tie
most active preparations are now being
made by the friends of the institution to
that end. A great many invitations have
been sent thlrouglhout the U'nited States
and Canada. Extra trains will be run upon
all the railways leading to the city, and
excursion tickets issued for one fare for the
round trip. A military company and one
thousand people are expected from Au
guosta, and two companies from Savannah.
Upon the reception of the companies here
thlley will perform tile ceremony of present
ing arms at Military Mass. As thej will
arrive at an early hour in the morning, a
breakfast will be tendered either at the
depot or in some convenient building. In
other respects the people of Macon, re
gardless of religious opinions, will en
deavor to make the occasion imposing and
agreeable to all who may see it. John
Wilkinson, of Macon, has been appointed
Chief Marshal, and will be assisted by a
staff of aids selected from the Augusta and
Savannah companies. It is intended to
make the laying of the corner stone an
event in the history of the Catholle Chareh
and congregation of Geor(e m to be
bered scores of years. Manuy of the mo
eloquent and distinguished bishops and
priests will be present, and aid in formally
inaugurating the career of an institution of
learning which will, doubtless, go sounding
down to all future ages. Georgia's inland
city of palaces has opened its arms and its
heart to it, and extends a cordial invitation
to all to come and spend Sunday, the 3d
day of May, and give us an opportunity of
expressing the hope that the University
will be like one who is the benefactor of
mankind, and
Whose footfalls will echo.

The Plenary Council on Round Dances.
IFrom the Freeman's Jolnal ]
Editor of Freeman's Journal :-Will you
oblige some of your subscribers, who agree
to leave it to you, by saying whether the
Bishops of the United States prohibit round
dances, and oblige yours, R.
RESPONSE.
We can best answer by quoting the
words of the Plenary Council of Baltimore,
in 186G, signed by all the Archbisoops and
Bishops then in the United'States, and
approved by the Holy See. We translate,
literally, from the decrees, in the part in
structing those in care of souls, paragraph
473:
"' Let them (pastors) speak against and
utterly condemn the immodest dances that
daily more and more are practiced. Let
them warn the faithful how nauch they
offend, not against God only but against
society, and the family, and against their
own souls, who either promote, or even
seem to countenance them by their pres
*ence, Let them especially teach parents
of how grave a judgment they become
guilty if they expose the tender age of
their sons or daughters to the peril of los
ing their purity and unspottedness of
mind, by tolerating that in this manner the
unwary may be snared in the toils of the
devil."
The Catholics of Berlin lately turned the
tables upon the "Old Catholic" party in a
witty and surprising manner. Reinken's
agents advertised a meeting of all who did
not wish to submit their mind and con
science to the " yoke of the Jesuits." The
invitation was interpreted literally. Hun
dreds of Catholics who read the announce
ment logically concluded, as they acknow
ledged only the authority of the Church in
conscience, that they were of the number
of those whose presence was desired.
When the meeting was organized, they
being by far in the majority, elected a
president and proposed resolutions anath
ematizing the schism of the German pro
fessors.
The "Old Catholics" were fairly trap
ped ; the wind was completely taken out
of their sails. In disgust at the Catholic
turn of the proceedings, they applied to the
police to disperse the conning and tri
Imphant Papists. To add to the mortifi
cation of the schismatics, the meeting
broke up with enthusiastic cheers for Pins
IX, the infallible Pontiffof -the infallible
Church. The Catholics of Germany are
not altogether wanting in the wisdom of
the serpent, while they observe a dove
like gentleness in the hour of persecution.
A shrewd preacher, after an eloquent charity
sermon, said to his hearers, "I am afraid, from
the sympathy displayed in your cotntenance.,
that some of you may give too much. I cau
tion you, therefore, that you be just before you
be generous; and wish you to understand that
I desire no one who cannot pay his debts to
put anything into the plate." Thsetlection
was a rare one.

STATE LINE STEAMSHIPS.
As A. K. MILLER & CO. have generously commis
sioned me to SELL PASSAGE TICKETS for their
Line of Steamships, and as the season for European
travel will soon commence, it may be well to remind
all those who intend visiting Europe or sending for
their friends, that the best Line of Steamships direct
from this port to Liverpool are those of the State Line.
The reputation of this Line is now well established; a
stewardess and surgeon are attached to each steamer;
no charge is made for attendance and medicind ; every
comfort. good food and accommodations; prudent and
skilful offcers add to the cheesfulness and safety of a
voyage on these steamers.
I am now prepared to sell RETURN TICKETS,
