LETTER FERO ROE. 0 THg VATICAN. tber 27.-On Sunday, the 21st, the Pope d a great number of Augustinians and means, who attended at the reading of s in the matter of the canonization of nerable servant of God, Alfonsus de , a Spanish Augustirian, and of two scans, the Venerable Servants of God, lil Humilis of Bisignano and Father Carlo Ci e. at 11O3 OF THI MARaEILLTS AND BAYONNE tt 'ILORIMS. tb nesday, the 23d, the Pope received in di ao Ducale about three hundred French 8S as from the dioceses of Bayonne and a lies. Addresses to His Holiness were a: y the Abbe Blancard, Vicar General of o lies, and by the Rev. P. Loparade, arch. hb of Bayonne Cathedral.

Bat Jesus Christ, to the confusion foes, seems to have repeated the words u he pronounced before the resurrection of us : ' Lazarus our friend sleepeth. but I go many awake hinm out of sleep.' It is true certain torpor affected the Church, im g her from comprehending the evils from so many sides assailed her. And, fore, the Lord, taking in His hand the e ge, smote the indoleur, to arouse them to ter perception of their danger, to make sensible of the gravity of their perilonus on, and to incline them to cry outfor aid salvation. God has listened to their r, and the fire of faith which lay hidden calf-stifled, has been revived within their ns. Bat the storm is not yet over. The ' ' Peoce, be still, pace, obautesce,' to be on to the winds and sea, have not yet been panoed by God. Notwithstanding. the ic bark floats dominant over the billows ith her, and the omnipotent hand of God gradually reconduct her to the haven of unility. Ike to the mystio bark recbrded in the el was that bark which once, in the early of Christianity, held within ier bosom a ly of saints, and which, through hatred to Christian faith, was abandoned to the y of the waves, without sails, without , without a pilot. But the path of those a over the waters was guided by the band od Himself, who wished to lead to safety mus, Magdalene, Martha, and other chosen 1, destined to evangelize your ancestors, to carry the most precious gift of faith, o your ancestors only, but to you also, low enjoy the fruit of the grain of mes eed then sown by those saints who were ld to your shores by Heaven; seed which I aw increased and multiplied, not merely in numbers of the faithful, but also in the km of charity. May God look down on e works with favoring glanoe, and may foet Holy Mary, the appointed guardian cii ofty, intercede for yon, for your clergy, for all your people, and gain for you those ee of which you have so much need. and as at Marseillles the holy family of arms planted the Cross, and spread wide faith, so at Bayonne the blood of the mar St. Leo enriched your country, and caused Pyrenees to re-echo to the prayers uttered your forefathers. Wondrons are the dis sations of God, who has always so ordered Sat certain of his herolc serrante sbould nstruments in His hands for cultivating onlarlinu the vineyard which His own t hand ha planted. Your St. Leo was martyred outside thecity , and in our days our enemies perhaps Idpractle esome similar implety by driving y se ministers of the sanctuary, and by aing them not only oatside the gates, but a still further away, and deprriving them of salutary inflaence. And if the executioner lot now brought forward to out off4thetr ids, yet many and many are the profaners of Oatholic religion who conme forth with an's commission, to disturb the heads of in Itlous youthe in order to detaoh them from principles of the Catholic faith, and so ee them much greater harm than the kill I of the body. This is what happens in Rome, where so Dy religions families, both of men and of man, espoused unto Jesus Christ, have been put outside the gate, after having ben de spoiled of their means of eubsistence. To the gates they would put all-the Cathollo tesahers, w in order to render them inoapable of teaching truth, or in order tbhat they themselves might more freely educate youths, not in the love of God, but In the love of oonbtry, whlcb they uebstitute for God; a country, moreover, de- pi based by immoral maxims, and weighed down hi by the enormous burdens it is foreed to sustain, a country whibl is therefore deserving of com. passion, sod which stands in need of extra 74 ordinary spiritual assistance. m *'Is truth, the persecutors of today are in fe one point not to be compar'ed with those of 01 old, who tortured and slew the martyrs, for ti the persecutors in ancient times had at least the t excuse that they lived in ignorance of the faith of Jesus Christ-Nons esls *aoust guuid fooluat. But the modern persecutors who are in Italy, o and also those who are outside of Italy, have been. born with theebaracter of Christ- p ians, have grown p and been eduooated toin re- a ligion Jnd piety, but have renounced the u fate of Jesus Christ. " Under soob eircumstanc what are we to do, my beloved friends? Alasa let as entreat God to redouble the strength and courage of c those whose duty it is to defend the truths of faith, to resist the attacks of the impious, t and of those who, as I eaid before, go sbout b saying that the religion of Jesus Christ has t passed its time. I know not whether this as- v sertion be more foolish than impious The t time of the Church of Jesus Christ is ever that which is. It is to day, and will be to morrow, and it will continue even to the con summation of the ages. Let us pray then a that we may always obtain from God greater e strength to resist the thonusand assaults which menase us. Let us pray to gain light I to confute errors. Let us pray for grace to be I given to our words to enable us to convert the erring . . t " And now I raise my arms to Heaven to bless the two chief pastors of your dioceses, and to bless the clergy who aid them as co operators in the sacred ministry, to bless the religions communities which abound in France, and to bless France herself. I bless alithose who interest thbmselves for the con dition of the Holy See, and all who are mak ing progress in goodness and in efforts to ,each the goal to which all ought to aspire, that goal which will be the termination of sorrows and the beginning of a happy etern Ityhen followed the Benediotion. )ORlIGO MAIL IIWS. f f oasnaANY. The Cologne Canons.-For the last two or three weeks reports have been circulated among the liberal Prussian journals that some of the Canons of the Cathedral of Cologne had sep. arated themselves so far from the Archbishop s that they had addressed communications to the governor of the province of Rhineland, declaring their submission to the laws of the h State, and requesting that their income, now a sequestrated, might be restored to them. Much anxiety was felt in some Catholic quarter., f especially as Archbishop Melohers stated thas be knew nothing about the matter. The Kolnische Volkszeitung has just announced that it is authorized to state, on the part of one of a the canons referred to, Herr Reinarz, that his e memorial to the provincial governor was pure " ly and simply a request for the restoration of e his sequestrated income, on the ground of his great age and the important services he had rendered throughout his long life to the Church and State. Probably it will be found that. any e other memorials have proceeded on similar grounds, and that they contain no unworthy concessions to the persecuting spirit of the "bread-basket" law. Paderbor.--Ou the morning of November 13, 1 about 10 o'clock, Counsellor Jensbh, by direo I tion of the governor of the province of West I phalia, appeared at the theologioal seminary ~ere, and formally announoed to the president, I, Herr Bartacher, the order of the Minister.of a Worship, Dr. Falok, that the seminary should be forthwith closed. The president protested, a declaring that he submitted only to superior t force. The conocillor proceeded next to the d study hall, where he made a similar announce ment to the students; the senior protested in r. the name of the body. The students were i, then ordered to pack up their papers, books ir and other effects; and within fourteen days e they must all have left the seminary. Soldiers' Marriages.-A letter from Konigs l erg announces that no little flatter has been occasioned in a regiment quartered there, by y the fact that several commissioned officers 0 who had contracted marriages only in the pre i qence of the civil registrar have been called uf upon by the authorities to have the Church ceremony now supplied. In some cases the to civil marriages are of three or four months' e standing, and considerable difficulty has been " occasioned by the reluctance of the young i women concerned to present themselves in 1 church as " brides," after having assumed the Ge statue of wives for so long a period. But the to military authorities are inexorable in their Sdecision. 'i Catholic Holidays.-Much dissatisfaction has d been occasioned by a notice which has been ir posted at the railway works at Paderbarn, an in nounciog that all the workmen will be ex ir pected to be present except on certain specified be days. whicb, however, do not include all the holidays of obligation. Now, by the Concordat hn of 1820, between the Hloly See and Proasia, and by the Bull de salute animarunt attached to the Concordat, the Catholic holidays are speciffed, os and the Prussian Government pledged itself of that none of its Catholic subjects should be bound to de any work on those days. The e railway establishments are under Govern ly ment inspection and control. How, then, can they be allowed to put up a notice which either ho virtually excludes Catholic workmen from em et ployment, or calls upon them to work in oppo. sition to the Concordat t d Cologne.-The Centre party have just had a ty great triumph in the municipal elections in en this town, returning their two candidates by a m, majority of over 600 votes. This is a con h, vincing proof that the majority of the bur o, gesses are sound at heart, and that the recep s. tion accorded to Dr. Falek last June was not a ro true expression of the genuine feelings of the oh citizens. in SAVA'IiA. he The Bishop of Wurzbur'g, Mgr. John Ialentine on CoA Betssannta, died on 17th of November,of an ay acute attack of disease of the heart. He had an been Bishop only since 187t. This is the third [y, Bavorian Seeb which has become vacant sinoe se thebeginning of this year. This death must suspend, at least, an impending collision be of tween the secular and spiritual authorities at ide Wnrzborg. Canon Hoho, a member of the ar- Cathedral Chapter,.and also a member of the sed Episcopal Council, had incurred the great die red pleasure of his Bishbop owing to some transao Li- tiousconnected with the general election last red July. The Bishop suspended him. Tbhe Canon oid appealed to the Government; and Herr von ing Luts, who has been spreading the oealomnious n report about theBishopof eBatisboon, imurne an order that Canon Hohn should be reinstated dty in his position as member of the Episcopal spe Councl of Wurzburg. The Bishop had pr log viously refused to remove the suspensioo, as by the canon would express no regret for what he but had done. His lordship would not have ac a of cepted the asuspended councillor thus thruast nor upon him; and a confiLet between him and str the Minister was inevitable had not death in s of tervened. It is worth noting that Mgr. von 'itt Reieman, when first ppointed to the Seeof in- Worzbrg, was praised by the Liberal party om for his moderaton," as being a "peaceably Isodisosed person," quite a "man of the ol, ill- ohol But when the time of trial came thiu "moderate" Bishop was found to be made of a a true metal as Mgr. von Ketteler, or Mgr. Mar I of tin, or any other member of the German epis een toprae. S it is almost almrys, thank Gd. raE JrUrITa. . . qe WHAT THEY HAVE DON!E AND WHAT THY be DO. swa Am Macaulay, notwithstanding-his prejudices, self pays the following tribute to the Jesuits, in pail his history of England: wil "Before the Order had existed a hundred E years it had filled the whole world with due memorials of great things done and suf- wi fered for the faith. There was no region onli of the globe, no walk of speeulative or ac- real tive life, in which Jesuits were not to be twe found. They guided the counsel of kings. pot They decyphered Latin inscriptions. They the observed the motions of Jupiter's satelites. po1 "The liberal education of the youth yes passed almost entirely into their hands, pea and was conducted by them with conspio- the uonuebility. ace "Enmity itself was compelled to own and that, in the art of managing the tender mind, they had noequals. Meanwhile they spa assiduously and successfully cultivated the do. theeloquence of the pulpit. They were to be found in the garb of MaLd tioes saperin tending the obs irvatory at Pekin. They were to be found spade in hard, teaching the rudiments of agriculture to the savages F of Paraguay. Yet, whatever might be their residence, whatever might be their employment, their spirit was the same; entire devotion to the common cause, im- 159 plicit obedience to the central authority. None of them had chosen his dwelling- tam place or his avocation for himself. If he hm was wanted at Lima, be was on the Atlan- w tic in the next fleet. If he was wanted at a Bagdad, he was telling through the desert with the next cavaran. If his ministry i was needed in some country where his life was more insecure than that of a wolf, T a where it was a crime to harbor him, where the heads and quarters of his brethren, fixed in public places, showed him what he 37 had to expect, he went without remon strance or hesitation to his doom. Nor is this heroic spirit yet extinct. When in our time, a new and terrible pestilence passed I round the globe; when, in some great I cities, fear had dissolved all the ties vas which hold society together; when the strongest natural affection yielded to the - love of life, even then the Jesuit was found a bending over infected lips, to catch the fev a erish accents of confession, and holding up d s t) the last before the expiring patient, the Ce image of the expiring Redeemer.' an. .j NCIENT IREL.IND. Philaselphla Catholle Standard. Ever since the Normans invaded Ireland in the twelfth century, the ancient Irish annals, and the ideas, customs, habits and names of the people have been buried in obscurity and unknown tothe rest of the world. England's policy was utterly to abolish everything distinctively Irish. B f The language, the literature and, later on; 1 a the creed of the people were proscribed. I After a long and desperate struggle, pro tracted for centuries, a dark and dense cloud settled over the history of ancient r Ireland, as well as over the people. The in vasion of Ireland was Justified on the ground that the people were only a mob of savages withoutlaw or settled government. Even in our own day Fronde, in his His tory, and in his lectures reiterated this old y falsehood, and on it based the justification _ , of England's rule over Ireland. ry f In some respects the obscurity which cov d ered Irish history and Celtic literature is n, ot wonderful, even apart from the hostile r influence of England. Of late years a e number of distinguished scholars-O'Carry, n O'Donovan, Zenas, etc., both Irish and D e German, have laid open Celtic literatune Sto the world, and many Celtic treatises A1 's have been translated into English. Let the average reader take up one of these, such Eu a- as " The Wars of. the Gaedhill and the n Gaill " and be will stumble on such persons , as " Toirdheldhach" and" Domchadh son N Sof Amhalgaidh, King of the Eoghanacht Us n Eochach," and he will find that these h mysterious kings of people no one ever e heard of, lived in places such as "' Snamh a' Ergda and Cairraisthe." This does not ,i seem very'interesting. and one is apt to - ig think that people who had such out n landish names must be either mythical cr in savage! e Only lately, Frazer's Magazine. the Ed inbnrgh Reviewo and the London Quarterly, have been discussing Celtic and ancient n Irish laws and institutions. Sir H. S. n- Maine, a distinguished English scholar and x- antiquary, in his History of Institutions ed has devoted considerable attention to the he Brehon laws. It seems to be now accepted at as an acknowledged fact that the antiquity dof the population is very great. Its civili Eation was fully equal to that of the con ,If temporaneonus peoples, and the laws which be governed them were framed on principles he of natural justice. There is a great sim n- ilarity between the old Brehon laws and an the institutes of the Hindoos and the tide or of primeval emigration which started m- from Armenia or Syria, pouring westward o to Ireland and eastward to India, has left the indelible traces of antiquity in both Scounetries. a The ancient Irish built stone edifices, n- they worked mines of gold and silver, they ir. had vestments etc., ornaments of great ºp- beauty and displayed marks of skill and r a workmanship. They were brave, and their he religion, which conasisted in the worship of the natural elements, is the oldest ansod the purest form of paganism. No doubt ine for centnries they retained the primeval 50 truth of the existence of one God, prac ad ticed the natural virtues, and looked for ic the coming Messiah. They, therefore, i found favor with God, and when St. Patrick Sarrived his teachings found a ready recep at tion in the minds of a people already pre he pared to receive them. be It is very common to speak of the con i quest of Ireland by England. But such - conquest never yet took place. The Nor mans conquered both England and a part n of Ireland, as well as the northern part of s France and the southern portion of Italy. an They were a conquering race. In course ed of time the Normans, Saxons and Danes, pal settled in England, amalgamated into one rpeople, but the Anglo-Norman settlers in SIreland adopted many Irish ideas and cus c toms. The real Irish remained in posses ai noo of most of Ireland until, in fact, Crom and well's time. And Cromwell's conquests in- were the victories ofone English party over ;on not only the divided Irishb, but also aof over the Scots and the Royalists in Eng rty land. bly A conquered people bears the marks of old slavery and subjugation, but the Irish h people do not. Their national spirit, r- whether it shows itself in the form of in pl- asurrectionary movements or in Repeal and H Im: Rn'e an;tltio2 is evidnt:!y p:ca qaerable. For England to rant self government to Ireland in any shape would r be a hard pill for that haughty nation to swallow. But she has acknowledged American independence, and has granted I, self-government to her Cplonies, and has a paid the Genevan award, and has bowed to necessity in other case., and she can, and will do so in the case of Home RuBle. England is not an easy nation to sub due. As was shown in the Napoleonic wars, when her population and wealth was Sonly half of what it is now, her capacity of e resistance is very great. She fought for a twenty-threeyears against France and Na 'poleon, and had to hold Ireland down all 7 the time. Those are ignorant of European * politics who talk of her weakness. Ten years ago the Empire of Napoleon IIl. ap * peared more powerful than England, if the strength of it armiee is only taken into i account. Yet this Empire has collapsed v ° and England remains. But patienpe and r perseverance will win for Ireland what c y spasmodic and ill regulated efforts cannot a e do. e a y MISCELLANEOUS. FASHIONABLE HAIR GOODS.
