History att;sts that as lon·g as a rmtion rem:tins virtuous it need not fear· de~truc~iou. On the contrary, the moment it becomes corrupt _no power can prevent it from operating its own .ruin. The str·uggles and the hardships which it bas to undergo before !·eaching a solid footing among the p::;wers of the world, the di.ffie-ulties it meets with in trying to holrl its rank and position, the emineo,t warriors and patriobs, the writers and statesmen which it produces in the course of its existence, all these things · con::;iclered separately or as a whole assured(y afforu the most pleasant subjects of intellectual studies n.nd pastiwes.

Yet there is sometbi:Jg h igber ·and loftiet· still in the study of bistot·y. Not only shouLd we endeavor to under"tand l;he intrkat~ vicissitudes of individual nations, but also the relations ann connecLions which exist between all nations forming the great f<Lmily which we Clesignate by t.he name of mankind. Indeed it is onl_y by carefully considering the diff~rent peoples as they have existe<l and as they have supplanted one another from the beginning of t.be world. to the present day that we may come to seize the grn.nd unity of the ck~ign , wlticll they execute on their solemn march through time on to etemity.

T:.en we uehold the unbroken succession of event~ and we see bow beautifully every link of the chain is fastened on to its neighbor, the history of tlle world becomes the history of an individual c!alled humanity, and we can embrace and analyze and study that individual with~ satisfaction that becomes astonishing. A wonderfnl field opens for the exercise of our judgement, our mind is tflken captive by the logic of fiwts and we becomo convinced of the suhlime workings of God in an<! through mankind. In fact, it is no longer man we consider, it is God himself, the uncreated wisdom, whose thoughts and designs we read in the wonderfully sublime drama of history, of which man is the actor, but God the author.

In that moment indeed we begin to comprehend the language of history and of wisdom, and of facts, and the succession of empires and kingdoms i::; no longer a mystery to our intellect. From the knowledge of the past we learn to conj ecture the future for we have discovered that m:m, though fickle and inconstant in the extreme, is led by the mighty band of One who is consta-ncy and order itself.

Our conclusion then forces itselt naturally upon us tlrat man is destined for a fixed and immutable end or purpose, tbat is the greater glory of God, his Maker.

Though free in every sense of the word, he cannot avoid that end, for it is t,hat which gives him a right to exist, it is the motive of his heing, it is his final

ca.tise. without which he would exist for notl;in<r ra tiler ""' be would not exist at all.

Rev. 1\loclerator, Mr. Presi<{ent, and Fellow Members: Lend me your ears a11d listen tbP. best way yon can ...

If we were all to embark upon au imnginary toboggnn and Jet ourselves clown the slide of time-away ciown into the dimmestantiquit.y and even across the high drifts of oblivion, the first thing we would tlo after passing an introduetor.r rem:~rk on tile weather of course, would be to look around tor a fire or something tbat has beating properties. Well, let's supp(Jse it's a ll true, anc1 tllat we're all a'ctunlly after sliding down the headlong and alm ost endless chute. First we must ext1·icate ourselves from our vehicle, or in common parlaoces get off the train-and after a little manual friction for want Of bd.ter comfort in the way of anything heat-giving, we must begin to explore the quasi Siberian waste which stretches before our vision. What are we looking for?

The origin of Military Compani es if they ever had an origin.

Now do you descry in the dim and cold distance an aged form approaching towards us? The ghostly apparition advances nearer. It is a real living sorD<>thing, it wenrs a bald head and a long white beard, cn.claverous. musty and useless ns a lost Greek dictionary as it works its jaws in a delightfully writhing movement, it emits the following hollow ·sou nels: " '0 An trope, dia ti eisi anthi ?'' which in plain Anglo Saxon menns: Man alive, what are yon coming here for? . . ..

g::tni zed among the angels n.t the tim r of Lu cife r's revolt ns is apparent from tllese folios. Some ha ve ulamea Milton for m::tking the angels fi g ht b:Lttle~ ; but he is perfectly j ustifi <Lb le. I$ there a nything more subli me tha n to behold in im agi n:\tio!1 these two h o~ t s of hostil e~ p ir its . the good fig htin g the bad- in an awfu l contest! or co urse the hli nd poe t was ri ght. The reason why so me critics ce nsure Mi lton i.; because he makes th e angels 1ight with spears macle wi th t eleg raph poles. r agree with them-in say ing that this W <tS pretty rough. So you all see very plain ly that mi li tary co mpanies originated like other human. miseries, in sin.

We len.rn from tile sam e books that the fit·st bat tles fought on land we re singl e-ha ud ed co mbats-like the one between Q;Lin and Abel. Bu t military companies were not slow cropping up a nd we ob;:;erv;e that. the G reeks and Romans and lat er on , the Freneh, the English anct the Germa ns raised lots ofsoldiers besides thei;: ord.in ary ca ttle, as Sallust t ells us.

The armies of Alexander used regular P eruvian spears exclusi vcly, a:~d the Roman soldi ers handled the catapult very dexterously. The moderns, as you all know, use heavy old army muskets-a nd the qtJicers dandy li ght swo rds. (brand new.)

A lex"•nclee learned his trade as drummer boy in his f,,ther's armies and after promoting himself to the t'ank of captain, a position al ways very desirable, he led his companies agai nst the enemy and became the m;ts ter of a v •tst empire. L:tter on Oresar, a Roman, tllought he'cl do the san-. e thing: so he drilled up n. ni ce company and came in to Gau l. He looked a ro und a nd conquered.

His ,sJldiers never fi red a shtlt. They g rumbl ed ::tnd sairi iL didn't pay and ~ bat conq nest was a ll onG-sideo. Ann it was too. Then Oresa r turned around and clid the meanest thing out. He went to work and· wrote a book for the amusement, or ra Lhcr the torture of schoo l-b oys. a ll at the expense (>f his soldierS to:). It's g ~ T.l :· ll througu, I reao it.

Now gentlemen, if you'll turn your intell ect uc~l head-lights towards Greece you will learn from the philos·~ phy of Plato th at the Athenians had a most exalted idea of military companies. They came into this world for what ? for no other purpose than to join some milital'y com p::tny or other. It was the sole en<l of th eir existence. So much so that acco rding to Xenophon, as Mr. N ormoyle here can vouch, those who were lame or o therwise un::t.ble to. b e!tr aL"ms were thrown in the gutters or cast into the se.1, fl.S bein g of no e arthly use.

Unc'ler penalty of ex treme torture they were marle to undergo the rlrill even from cb il ~ booo, so that if occasion offAred itse lf, they wo uld be at any mom ent ready to defr.nd the rights of their country. For this reason we find among the ancients many able-boc'lied men as welf as men of gAnius. On the battle-field th ey are represented to us by Thucidides and other historic

I

al writers, with their g litteri.ng ~h i elds ~ntl spad~'ling helmeJs presenting a sce ne at once magnificent and terrible.

The model'l1s have tried ha.rJ to imitate the ancients in this as well as in other arts. We do nothiug but :a pe the ancients in eve ryt lling a riyh ow; a nd it is no wopder poor D.trwin began to t hink man was a lineal descendant from the monkey. The military comrJanie,5. of mod : ern times are not ~ati s fied with tbe c it~1.del s, battle~fle l ds ancl stro'lgbol<ls of the nation, but they want the eart h, th e whole earth, an<l we find them ramifying into every little one-lton:,e town Jilie K anktdree, Ln/ '-tyette, an rl Bombv nna is, a nd they even sprc~d into th e co ll eges and country schoo ls. Of tlliS assertion we h a ve ·bere a living proof.

In our schools and colleges vre ba ve them for the purpose of exerc ising the body a nd de veloping ou r mu;:;culnr powers- :t purpose which, I a s .~ ur e y o u, is . a lw>1.y s fully attain ed, when for instance, yo ur captain makes you march and eany arms for fully two hou rs, while be him self with a lig ht sword (uew) saws the a ir ancl cuts a great figure! He delights pRr ticularly in keeping the b ~)ys out a good long spell, as he has the authority-But sometimes it happens some one gets llis . Iri sh up and prodig;1lly bestows llis cll atter upon the. chi lly a ir .

Om· compan ies differ from th e · Greeks in many re-. spects. They are not composed of brave, h e ~ tlth y and strong men, for they take in any skinny dttd e that wears a su it. I co uld give you many ex:tmples e ven in this · society. But I don't want to be pet·sona l ; no noL at a ll.

When th ey go on their exped itions to the woods they man.ully trample the dead lea ves, and possibly may even scare a dog, or a horse, and make' it . run :.n ' holy fr ight. Then they will shout a nd yelf as if they had gained a great victory . On one occasion ho wever, the enemy prov ed too many for th em a.nd th ey were cvm.pletely routed. Th ey encounterecl a <'!rove of oxen which at once set to kicking and jumping and bellowing so at the militia that tbe heroes ran all over the field in wild eonfusion . I sho uld like to see them exposed to the fiery eyes and dreadful roaring of cannons . on a real hattle-fieH. W vuld 'nt th ey run?

Now, I dont want to be partial or to appear prejudiced. I mu~t confe;;s that our boys execute many gra- _ nefu l movements and they know it too. Th~t tbey look we ll and smart I also g ran t. They furnish amusem ents for us and our visitors, anrl we ahvays likA to bear th e clrum and see th e boys fall in. I, belongiug to the awkward squad, have less occasion for displaying myself &ncl more tor adm iring others. I would certainly j oin the regular army of military du<'les if the drills did not require the precious time which I must consecrate to my favorite study, Greek. As it is I must remain your admirer , No. 4 of the awkward Squad .

LKS BEAUTES DE 'ROLLA.''

Comment trouver des beautés dans uu poëme qui contient tn.nt d'horreurs? T el est cepenct1.11t le cas, et commune la nuit la plus noire lnis e parfois luire une blttnche étoil è et qu'un amas de fange voit s'épanouir un e ' lieur virginale, cette œu vre de 1\Iuo.set a des pages Jumrneuses à côté des pins sombres, l' im age hid e use <ln vice r.e s'y ét:lle pa.~ seul e : l'âme est souvent t>mbaumée des parfum.s les plus exqu is du bean, de l'idéal.

ST. VlAT EUR·s COL LEGE JOURNAL. ST. CECI LIA'S DA. Y. There arl' on the panorama o~ the student's life ma.ny scen~>s painted iu the brig!!test colors of A rtist Pleasu re•. To these sce11es of . unclouded merriment memory ofteu fondly travels back; upon thl'se t4e meo tal eye loves to feast itself after hours of dull stucly Of ffi_QOqy lei!SU!'~,. ~o_(i fnrlPe,d i~ _is 110 ~ore _d,esirable tban possible to forget . tll~se . harmless _ all(l d el iciou~ hours of onr boyhood happiness. St.. Cecilia's d::ty of'87 is one of those sunlit scenes we even now love to Culltemplate as it quickly recedes from view. L et us describe it before it entirely disappears.

Het·e the realcontrast'!asomewhat with Lhe figurative, for, to say the truth, the day was a trifle cloudy and chilly, ll'1t, though the outsi1i e wns uninvitit'lg, the fto,lse wr-.s cbeerfi.1l and fu tl of music, of miliLary moves, of taffy and goo(i-humor. The music which had been in preparation was rendered at t.he early mass in the happi est sty le. There was a violin overture by 1\lr. Sullivan accompanied by Prof. J{ Bourget at · the organ; then followe.d an uni so~ choir in the grand hymn to St. Ceci lia t.be music of which is by the famous Lambi!lotte; here Mr Sullivan p layed an int.erlurle in G. minor and th ~ n the quartet sang, nnd to their credit be it s::id, sang beautifully the '·0 Salutaris". by Rossini. Mass enderl with three im·oca.tion'l to St. Cecilia.

As Fr. Mahoney was expected thatrlay, tbecon versation t urned to military drill an<i when we were calle~ fcJt d_inner we ~a.d tile pleasure of .-1pplauding om fri ends Rev. Fr. Zeland, Fr. Mahoney, and hi s little Adjutant, Master Harry Scult.z a.s th ey pas:;ed tllrough the refectory ... .. As the blessing of the new fhg and other interesting doings belong to the mi lit.ary erlitor, I must rl'fmin fro m encroach ing upon his dou~ 1. in: so pleasP, for these, see another column.

After drill Rev. Fr. M. J . Marsilc C. S. V. treated all the companies and the musicians to most relishable refreshments. These, he explained were the giftll of Rev. Fr. Crowe wl10 had visited the coll ege early in the morning and generously pro\·irled for tlle boy's enj oyment. We return ruany thanks to ou t· kind but unkn0wn friend.

The musical stmlents were then inviterl up to the music ball where the taffy war was ca rried on for the greater part of the afternoon, muP-h to the delig-ht of Cecil, and of his Seniors. Frs. Zeland and Mahoney were also there entertained by t.he orchestra which played several of its best selections.

The band made its u~ual serenading rounds, encountering everywhere open doors, smiles, compliments and cigars. Supper was next, in orcler.

About half past · seven the b:::nd played an overture which was the signal for thP. op~ning of the evening's

enteitainment. It wonhi be too lengthy to make p:nticular note ofe:tch number, suffice it to say, that each one did his share in a manner which proved a cred it to himself and most en tert~ill i ng fo r h i~ hearers. ·Followi ng is the Pl'Ogramme.

It would hardly b.:. fair to dism iss tllis subject witbout bestowi!'!g :tword of merited praise upon the orchestra wbioh fairly surpa:;sed itself at thts mu ch enjoy eel entertainment.

Verily they were the wonder, the f eature of the evening and they deser ved richly the two encores they receivet-1, both tim es thep played ....

goqd deal of guessing if our former· associates would tell us their whereabouts nnd how Lhe 'world is using them.

Come to think of it, I ilave recently met quit.e anumbet· of my classmates of '78, and otber children of St. Viateur's. I11 Chic11go a few weel{s 11go I bad the pleasure of seeing Hev. D. E. McGrath of St. Malachy's church, Rev. Fl'ancis Rieley of Gilman, Lawyer James Maher of Chic11go, and James Walsh, boot and shoe drummer for a Chicago bouse, all of whom were lively boys in the olden day:>. At Brimfield last wintCJ' I met Ed McCabe, who is now a storekeeper in tl:te U. S. revenue department at Peoria; also George and E1isha McCabe and Joe Culler1, who are farmi:ng. In Peoria I found Fmnk Quinn working on a newspaper. gome one rlown t.here told me that Tim Ryan was a book keeper at Lamarie City, Wyoming. Does an.ybody know where James Curran, alias "Judge," of Dixon is? He was my boon companion, and· no one seems to know where he is. Patl'ick Keatitig vi's its Kewanee fteqnently from What Cheer, Iowa, where he owns a groeery store. In later years Bourbonnais knew Phil O'Grady of Kewanee, now a machinist, and John and Tom Brady who help their father in the saloon and bottling business. Revs· J . J. Re11rdon, Thomas Devany and Fitzsimmons, all known to you, have been pastors in Kewanee, but I do not know where they are at present. I am farming, as bad be alth h\nders me from following the newspaper and printing business which suits me well. Bad health and Satan have been on my trail for lo these manyyea.rs, but I hope to fool both of them yet. I could tell you of many more students, and have mentioned only a few so as to give the other boys a chance.

N. B.-The laLe~t naws the Journal bad of ''.Ju~ge' Curran, '8.0, was in the spring of 1883. He was then lStudying law in San Francisco, California, and was feeling well though . thinking of days gone by, as the following extract irom ·his letter may prove: "While at St. Viateur's I never imagined, that in a few years after leaving it, a letter from an old comrade still there would cause a tenth of the delight I experienced on the rece.ipt of yours. I feel as though I had lived a life-time,- it seems so v.e ry long ago &ince I left there; and, while looking back I think that truly roy happiest days were spent at St. Viateur's. I do not know what makes the memory of my college days so peculiarly pleasurable, unless it is the pleasant recollection of old associates and friends, or the contrast . between my life then an<l since. Whatever the reason I am certain that my presentjug of happiness is a broken: handled thing with a crack in the side and ~ few big

'Ve are unable to give any satisfactOJ'Y infonrrrttion concerning Rev. Fathers Heardon, Fttzsimmons n.ntl Devenay. We are ignorant of their wh~I'·eabout~. (Journal) FOR THE THESPIANS AND CECILIANS. The <lramati·c and musical abilities displayed by the students at thei1· late presentation of Pizarro in Kanka~ kee have been the subject of much wonderment and congratulation from the part of their many a<lmi!'eJ'S. It is not well to flatt.e r-nor is this iutended for fbttet·y; but the Lruth may be told; it sometimes must, and som1:times should be told. We must then Le · aJiowed to say that it appears from what people and papers agree in statirJg, that the Thespians :<>layed "excee<lingly well," and the Cecilians did "~till better." "These young gentlemen are not amate'Jl'S; they are artists,'' that is what they say, "and they reflect great credit upon the institution which they represent." Let every one be modest enough to take his share of these compliments.

They are yours, ye artists, uot .oms.

The costumes were much admired, probably because they were r~ally fine an<l especiallv suited for the rendition of Pizal'l'o. Thanks to the· constant care ·of the Thespian's Rev. Manager and to the valuable assistance of his iriends, the society's wardrobe is sutliiciently equipped to render any play. This is a very material advantage .... We join the popular sentiment, thereby al:>o expressing our own feeling, and sincerely congrat. ulate the Thespians and Cecilians, and wi~h them like frequent successes in the future.

BEHOLD THE FLAG. All Hail to thee! 0 Banner bright and fair, The sight of thee sets all -my soul un fire; Thy stars and stripes, when floating free in air, My feeble words with strength sublime inspire; My God, My country, are thoughts that to me brinoTbe poets flame and make my spirit sing. o Chorus.

Behold the Flag! Our country's pride and joy!

Behold the Flsg, nor admiration hide; For beneath its stars and stripes we will abide, In guarding it our life we will employ!

Ob 'bow I love to Sf.e thy waves unfold, To catch the splendor of the sunlit sk.r; And how I l·mg thy beauty to behold When flags of other nai,ions wave on high Ye stars and stripes, of ted and white and blue How great the pride the minstrel finds in .you.

OUR NEW FLAG.

'

Tbe ceremony of t.he bles ing and presentation of our new 1lag which took place Tuesday Nov, 22., .' t Cecilia's D:ty, wns one that will leav e a lasting impression on all who witne, ed it. The Flng was prcs~::nted to the College Battalion by t.be Faculty aud memberS of tbe diff<!reut companies. I t wa. seleetecl by Rev. Fr. Mahoney Drill- I a ter of the Chicago Catholic Zouaves who with hi~ Anjutant Stephen hultz vi ited us and ~·ssi ted at the pre entation. The B tttalion wn drawn up in the long hall near the Arn.ory, under the command of 1nj . Legris, Fr. Mahony vested in cass< c' , nrplfce and ,tole anrl assi.:;ted b~' hi little Adju t:tu~ in full clress, proceeded immediately with the blessing.

After the benediction the color guard marche<l from their post to the clergy whe1·e wit..h the kiss of peace the flag wa! entrusted tu tbe care of our coior sergea.nt.

Then with colors flying the battalion at present arms arul the bmlfl playing a martial strain the color gu at·d n:tur11erl to their plnee in tlre centre. Fe. l\lahony then nddre~ect the boys, who alrea.rl_v showerl by their counIE"l.'lnce that the cerE>mony bad touched their tender ftoelings. During his remark-, he urged I hem to love those ~t~rs and stripes under whose gq i dance they now enj •.r the pre<:iom; boon of liberty. He showerl them the HC« ~essity of discipline; the ll(h·antages whieb a mn.n of di~cipline has in the battle of life; aud conclurled by saying that to enconrage them in the study of Military Tactics, the Chicago Catholic Zouaves had agreeecl to present. at the Annu ~d Commencement a golrl medal to th e man passing the best practical and· theoretical exami on ti 011.

At this point a choir of students unrler the supervis ion of Hev. Dr. Pehorrle rendered most exqni:>itely a s011g prepare.! for the occasion entitled B )hold the Flag!

The wm'•ls were composed for the occasion hy 1\fr. Juo. S. Finn and set to music by Fr. P eborde. After the rendi•ion of this d erlic1tory song the Rtttalion proceeded to the parade ground where the ceremony {,f rlress~pnnule wa::. performed under the command of Arljutant Schultz. This little fellow, only elven years of ngl:', is ~ur<:>ly a wonder. The precision and soldierly manner with which he performed his dnlks was surprilling.

The pnrnde having been rlistnissecl the mP-mbcrs of Co. A. betel a competitive drill for a vacant sergeantcy which was won by II. Olson, who shnwcd his superiority over his fellow soldiers. Fatller Mahony and t.he litt!l:' Adjutant bade adieu to the boys promising another visit in the near future. Out guests departet'l, three rousing cbeenl were given for ''Father l.iahoney and the AdjutanL'' after whieh each company w:~s dis misserl.

George Bliss, of N PW York, then a protestant, but now a Catho li c, who, immediately on heari ng of the barbarous inte ntion ofthe Italians, se t out for Washington and obtained from president Arthur the telegram which prevented the Italian Government from executiug its design.
