The pontifical zouaves then march to the front, in their special costumes and with French Canada as a Catholic country, as a country that old banner under which they fought for Pius the that has had to strive manfully for the maintenance of Ninth, in Italy : they surround the altar and _are g reeted its faith, bas chosen, as a protecter in heaven and as a with long continued applause.

of a Supreme Being. It is a noble, it is a magnanimous act, it as an .act worthy of the great Catholic nations of former days, and it cannot but draw down from heaven numerous blessings upon the people who has sufficient :fl-tith to perform it. Ah! who could relate the great thoughts that swell the breast of the Catholic patriot in those moments of sublime emotion caused and guided by that faith which civilizes and enobles all that it touches. .

Again the cannon roars; it is to announce the consummation of the sacrifice. Soon after, the people prostrate themselves to recieve the blessing of their devoted b1shop and mass ends. A young priest addresses the assembled masses and in eloquent words encourages them to follow the path of virtue now opened to .them. He shows that fidelity to their holy religion will make of them true ai\d genuine lovers of both their country and their God. Yes! let the infidel · celebrate his holiday in revelries, let him cover himself with shame if he will. But let the Catholic come to the altar ofGod, there to seal in his faith, the duty he owes both to heavenly and to earthly ruler. J;.et him thank heaven for favors received and let him ·:s~pplicate it for ' all blessings upon his soverign, upon ¥#' cbuntry and upon himself; and that Catholic citizen'will .ever remain a true, honest man, the honor of his country.

Sachez seulement que je ne puis m'empêcher de vous déclarer que je me rappellerai toujours les douces impressions que ce passage à Bourbonnais vient de produire en moi. Avant de laisser cette jolie petite localité, j'ai cru bien faire en vous communiquant les r ?flexions auxquelles mon esprit s'est abandonné, hier.

Oui, croyez-'llOi, tout me . rappelle ici . le Canada!

Tout le tempi, j'avais sous mes yeux ma belle Patrie, ce pays arrosé et fécondé, par le sang des martyrs, grand, vigoureux et prospère à l'ombre la croix, étendard de la véritable civilisation. A Bourbonnais et dans tous les districts environnants, l'Eglise du Christ a pu toueher un petit morceau de terre dans un pays qui gît sous les couches ténéltreuses du protestantisme et de toutes les erreurs. Ce qui prouve que dans cette église la force de Jésus-Christ est là: c'est qu'en peu d'années dans toutes les directions des clochers surmontés de la croix ont fait leur apparition, et, en surgissant, ils reculent au loin les ténèbres des hérésies et de l'indif~ férentisme. Ici, la foi catholique gagne de plus en plus du. terrain. · Il me fait plaisir de remarquer que plus d'un tiers elu nombre des . élèves sont des canadiens fi·ançais. On constate en eux l'aHuri.' franche et ouverte et les types de la race française.

La plu part des élèves sont des Irlandais robustes, au teint rosé, pleins de foi et d'amour pour la religion. On voit aisément qu'ils son~ les descendants des fils de la belle Irlande, que l'occéan supporte sur ses immense vag:u'ls avec tant de complaisance, semblan.t se faire un orgueil de montrer cette éméraude aux yeux du monde entier.

Messieurs les élèves, que je suis heureux de vous trouver au collège. Soyez bien convaincus que le temps présent est le plus doux et le plus beau de votre vie.

Employez bien ce temps précieux pour cultiver autant que possible le champ fertile de vos jeunes intelligences.

Vous av!lz• à votre disposition, pour résoudre les problèmes difficiles de vos études, pour vaincre les obstacles les plus Strieux, un levier puissant. Cet instrument de tous vos succès, c'est le travail.

. .L É SOIR.

Le soir! Le mot m~me semble dire calme, repos.

Qü'.Y a-t-il en effet . de plus beau et de plus toqchant qu'un de ces soirs d'automne? Quelle he,ure solenn!31le et qui 11ppëlle les· douceE; rêveries que ·çelle Où le soleil disparaît, ne lais&ant à nos yeux qn'un wourctnt crépuscule!

C'est en ces moments que, solitajre, l'on aime à se promen~r· au ·milieu de scènes rur::ùes et à ad.m irer les beautés de la nature. A ·l'occident les nuages semblent être de pourpre et d'or, il. l' orient une étoile perce l' azur.

Les flots, qui se taise~t in~~nsiblement, conservent encore une trace lumine~se, dernier reflet du solei l couchant.

L'oiseau, revolant à son nid, jette dans l'air rafraîchi, une note plai;1tive comme un ··chnnt d'adieu. Au loin, la cloche se bit-lance une dernière fois dans le vieux clocher et nous invite à la prière, au recueillement. · Le fermier revient à sa chaumière, à pas lents, et sur ce front ouvert l'on peut vou· à t~avers les sueurs un air de contentement, de légitime fierté. A quelque distance, gpn épouse fid èle est assise dans l'embrasure d'~pe fenêtr.e, !nterrogeant la route, et n'en d étourne les yeux que pour surveiller un berceau où d<y;t profondément le ~fu·s pWbièiix trésor d'urie mère, son:' ~nfant.

Les jeunes berg.:-rs ramènent les troupeaux du pâtu~ngè pour la nuit; on entend an milieu des mugissements des bestianx, les cris et les rires joyeux des enfants, rires que n'ont p11s encore attristés les ]:urnes et les infortunes, car ils sont à cet âge de la Vie OÙ tout est joie et bonheur ,,où toutes les années fleurissent comme fleurissent au printemps l~s roses et les lis. · Ainsi l'on promène sès regards çà et là, des cieux à la terre de l'homme à l'enfant, et on laisse errer sa pen&ée jusq~'à ce que, les étoiles, déjà hautes dans la voüte azurée, viennent nous avertir que la nuit est arrivés.

Que de fois en contemplant ces beaux soirs, je me suis reporté par avance au soir de ma vie, à cet instant où il faudra céder à la mort, comme le jour cède à la ~nit, et je n'ai demandé alors qu'une chose à Dien: q~e. ce moment soit n.uilsL calme et serein que le couché ctu soleil, la fin d'un beau jour 1 Alex Gra~ger, .

Les Missionnaires du Canada.

Mesdames et Messieurs, Appelé ce soir, C01Ilme membre de l'Académ ie St. Denis à prendre la parole devant un auditoire français, hono;é de la présence d'un des représentants distingu t:":s

du clergé canàdien, entouré de èeux qui furent ici les pionniers de l'Evangile, il me semble que je ne saurais · faire un meilleur usage de cette langue, que notre sociét é littéraire a pour but de conserver dàns cette institution, qü'en prononçant l'éloge de ceux qui ont fait retentir cet icliome harmonieux sur les plages de ce nouveau continent, de ceux qui, à la fois, se plaisaient à redirè les vers si pleins de douceur de nos . grands poêt.es, et à. prêcher dans une langue barbare la v érité à des milliers de tribus assises à l'ombre de la mort, je veux dire les saints et illustres Missionnaires du Canada!

Messieurs, nous vo1c1 f:'n présence d' un des plus . beaux spectacles de la terre, d'tm , phénomène inconnu à l'antiquité, étranger à toutes les fausses religions, gloire unique de l' église catholique et . qui est comme le cachet le plus frappant de la vérité destinée à éclairer tous les hommes. T andis que les prêtres de l'Egypte et les philosophes de la Grèce n'initiaient à leurs my~t ères que quelques disciples privilégiés, que de nos jours le Protestantismè se contente. de distribuer des Bibles. sous la protection des armées Britanniques, l'Eglise au contraire envoie de par Je.. monde, depuis qu'elle existe, sans autre défense que la force de la v érité, sans antre bouclier que le co m~a.ge invi'nciblro de leur foi, des légions d'apôtres qui ont civilisé l'Eueope, évan"'ilisé l'Asie et 1' Am érique! Que1 conquérant, je ~ous le dema·tJde, a jamais étendu plus loin les limites ùe son empire que ces humbles envoyés du Christ? 0 mémorables victoires, ô lamiers immortels des A l exan ~ dre, des C é~ar et des Nit:poléon, v-ou.;, pâlissez devant ceux des Paul, des Patrice, des Xavier et de toutes ces phalanges héroïques de Mi ssionnitires qui ont porté triomphant le glorieux étendard de la croix jusqu'aux confins de la tel're!

La découverte de l'Am érique ouvrit un nouveau _ champ au zèle apostolique des missionnaires. L'Angleterre avait eu ses Augustin, l'Irlande ses Patrice, l'Allemagne ses Boniface, le Cann.da!lut ses Daniel, ses Jogues, ses L a,llemand. Oui, dès que le drapeau de la France fut arboré sur les bords du St. Laurent, .à coté, s'éleva. la bm1nière du salut. Et depuis, la croix précèdera toujours l'épée; elle re;;plendira comme un signe de paix et de ci vilizfl.tion, dans ls. ms,in de nos missionnaires qui la planteront aux regards étonnés des nations sauvages, depuis les montagnes de glace de la baie d'Hud son jusqu'aux rivages du Golfe 'du Mexique 1 Mais les sold ats du Christ n' établiront le royaume évangélique qu'au prix des plus grandes pdv[!.tions, d'indicibles souffrances, qu'en se vouant à une mort certaine. Oh ! qu'elle est belle la vie de nos missionnaires, des fils de St. François et de St. lguace~ au milieu des forêts vierges et de& nations barbares du nouv eau monde !
