PAUL WtLSTAOl:J.

To the !'ln rlent in Philo~ophy it nppe:trs s trnnge t!Jat there a re so many popular enors. He thumbs hi s pages and exclaims: "How in tile name o f common se nse can iofirlels oon~cie ntion s ly b e. ie v e wha t they tnnch '?'', • 1 How did Ro u~sean e ver fall into hi s soc ial ••ompact error?", anrl. the t-hinker, a fter t•unniug through his tract. on Pmperty :tncl compariug th e · i·leas of the Socinli:;tt. and Commnnists, thmws down his book, and feels, if he does not exclaim: " \'\Tha t ft>Ols Lltese mortals be:'' How rn n they be iu,': u ceLI inti> s uc h g ross el'l'ors? It is lack of th o ugllt. Tbe ir ac ti ons oel ray thetn. Who are the Socialists? They anJ their recruits are a lways fuun<l among the lowe::;t c lasses, amOttg Lh e ignomut., th e irreligious: tlley are infidels 11 early every (JfJI'l. Yet t,hey pret e oct to convin ce tile t-hinkers, t,he ec!Pcated, by their argument;; thPir arg um e uts, forsooth ! a clu b. a fire-arm, dynamite. They pre t e nd to advocate a pure Socialism but their views c: ilange wil.lt the s tntus u f their pocke t- book. Grant tJ,em n. littl e leanting. But"A litt.le learning is a da11gerons thing, Drink d eep or (lrink not of the Pyl'ian s pring." T hey are struck with an id ea, its bri lli ancy dnes them, and b efore they tnlly rr.alize what material they have in band, they are V[ll,l.nting their prin ciples in the facE:: of society. 'f'b ey neither trace the idea to its somce n()r to its last end. Their amhition is to inv ent, to be original. The tollowing from B alm es is apropos: "Un!le r the influence of this exclusive predi lect ion, this prejudice, the min(l developes its irlens aml ac com modates fitet:> to suit it; that which was at first ou ly an ingenious and e xtrava g an t irlea, becoml)s the germ of import:-;.nt doctrin.es ; and if it ari~;e in a person of ardent dispos ition, fan aticism, the canse of so much m arlness, is the consequence." The great battle cry of Sociali:sm is Char ity! A grand sentiment.. How mu ch of good that word implies, help to tile poor, a id for the oppressed, succor for tbe weak. "Do unto others as yon would wish others to do unto you." ·what golden wonls. ,And thus the heart and rninct :o~,re rap~ in a perfect fl a me of zeal . All that is in the least contrary to cllarity is branded as tyntnnical, authority i:s a. u s nrpation, property a theft. And so from ~ bRd to worse . A lack of thought is at once apparent, reason gives place to sentiment, and the heart becomes the ruler of the mind. The great battle .cry of Soc ialism is Chal'ity. But is

their system a cha1·itnble one? We willtwt only prove the contrar.'' • bnt also that it is destructive .of t:Lll o rde11, the principle of sloth, of s lave1·y.

"Ma sœur, si les pleurs Ranimaient notre argile morte, AinSi que la rosée apporte Une nouvelle Yie aux fleurs, Tu revenais, de bonheur ivre, Ton enfant revivre! Comme d'un sommeil, il s'éveillerait pour te sourire

Entrouvrant sa lèvre de myrrhe; Et t.n dirais: c"est son t(\int vermeil, C'est son œil où le mien se miré! Il vit! Il respire! Héhs! au tombeau Pas de germe f}Ui puisse éclore Oh! rien qui ne renaisse encore Au sein de ce triste berceau. il ne sort jamais de ses fanges Que l'aUe des anges! Et dans leur essor Ils emportent bien loin des &mes De ceux qu'ici-bas nous aimâmes, Comme la chrysalide d'or Qui cherche en déployant sorr aile La voüte éternelle. Mais répands, ma sœur, Ces pleurs dont ton &me est chargée : Tu te sentiras sotûagée Du poids glacé de ta douleul'. Le ciel sombre se fond en pltüe Pour que l'ombre fuie Coulez de nos· cœurs, 0 larmes, suave rosée; Et sur la joue have et crensée Laissez d'immortelles douleurs, Comme au bronze que l'on cisèle, L'empreinte mortelle. Car le cœur humain Est tout une source de larmea Qui se gonfle avec nos alarmes; Et dans la joie >ou le chagrinQu'un être naisse ou meureAh! toujours il pleure! ~1"' *

Considérez, .Mes::;ieub, qnel spuct.ac.:l e dut dfrir le monde après les trois premiers jours cte ht création lorsque, selon le langage du Psalmiste, " Dieu eut dressé les cieux comme une tente, qu'à sa voix et au bt·ui t de son ton~ erre les eaux qui cuu v raient la te ne comme d'un vêtement eurent fu i, que les moqtagnes oe furent éleveés ct que la vallées se furent creusées à leur pied." (l">s 113.) Representez vous cette verdure langnissante; ces tertres jauni»; ces dé:;erts arides, où croissaient çà et là des ru·bres au feuillage dernesuré et des plantes gigantefques; cette pille lum ière; ce ciel sombre; ces monts dénudés qui échancraient l'horizon ; le bruit monotone et mourant de la brise qni - traversait les· plaines, gli~sait sm· le !Jenchant de collines et se mêlait au murmUt;e plaintif des eaux expirant sur la plage. où battant le üanc de rochers. Comme tout était sombre, lugubre! Sur la terre pas un mouvement, dans les air~ pas une voix, dans les cieux pas un astre ;· jour plein d'effroi et qui n'eut de semblable que le jour où· le Christ expira, lorsque les astres s'enfuirent, que les cieux pâlirent d'horreur ct qu' un voile sombre couvrit le mo n'de. L' A1·éopagite, plongé encore dans la llUit du paganisme, s'était alors écrié: "Le Dieu de la nature souffe ou bien le mécanisme du molide se dissout.'' Il fut, · ce semble, une heure semb lable pour l'Eglise quand le Christ eut quitt ~ la terre. Elle demeura obscurcie et comme voi lée de tristesse. La lumière avait été faite, c'est vrai ; mais qui ue sait que la lumière ici-bas est encore mêlée aux figmes et aux ténèores de la foi? L'Eglise était bien iormée; les eaux supérieures avaient hien (•té séparées des ·eaux inférieures par la distinction du clergé et des laïques: les cieux de l'Eglise étaient par conséquent tendus ; mais où étaienL le mouvement, les joyeux concerts ? Où étaient les astres répandant leur pure et donce lumière? Les apôtres ? Sans doute, selon la parole de Jésus-Christ, ils devaient être la luwière du monde par l'édat de leur doctrine, mais comment le pouvaient-ils alors ? N 'av aien t-ils pas fui à rheure Où lem chef

LE GENIE EST UNE LONGUE PATIENCE.

Ces esprits arrivent plus tôt r4ue les autres à l'âge de r::tison, à cet âge oi:J pour la première fois l'homme cornprend,, éprouve pour ainsi dire, d' une maniè1··e vagu e encore, mais douloureuse, ln. noblesse èle son origine et la profondeur de sa chute. Ils sentent pl ua tôt que les autre,; et plus cruellement surtout, l'éternel tourment de l'ir.fini; ils sont pounuivis par un id én.J qui les h::tnte, et qu'ils ne peuvP.nt ni saisir ni fixer. Ils s'fln vont par le monde, receuillant pal'fois la gloire et parfois le m é p ri ~ mais toujours tristes, m·~ Contents de leurs œn v res . ' froides à leurs yenx parce que jamais elles ne reproèlui sent cet être entrevu, deviné par leur âme, cet être qui fait partie d'eux-mêmes ét qu'iii> ne peuvent e 01 brasser;-tristes et mécontents, parce que rien ne reprodnit leur idéaL-Et l'on dit qu'ils ont du gé ni e. Qu'ont-ils pour que leur âme soit si vivement éprise de cet êtte inconnu auprès duquel tant ct'hommes passent indi:tféreuls ?--Rien! le génie est un don que la nat ure, que Dieu lui-même leur a fait, parce qu' il attendait .:l'eux de gmndes clH >Ses· C'est un feu intérieur qu e l'enthousiasme excit.e et qui, >tu moment de l'inspiration, ne se possètle plus et demande à se manîfe,.ter. Ecoutez le poète: . . . . la lave de mon g(onie Déborde en torrents d'harmoni e Et me consume en s'échappant. Et l'on dirait que le génie est un e longue patience, un, labeur semblable à celui de l'artisan qui cisèle ... Vingt fois sur le métier remettez votre ou vra.ge, Polissez-le sans cesse et le repolissez.

Cela suffirait-il pour 1aire une œuvi·e de génie? No~ , non ; le poète doit chan ter : Comme l' oiseau gémit, comme le vent. soupire, Comme l'onde murmure en coulant. Cependant la nat-me ne fait p,as toub et le travn.il, sans ê tre un élément essE<ntiel du génie, en est néanmoins une condÜiou indispensable. Là où. Dien crée nne âme artiste ou de poète, le travail fournit les moy eli s d' exprimer, de commauiquer aux . autres. quelques unes de ces vibrations ressenties avec 'une doule ur a·i déli cieuse. . D'ailleurs le génie n'est pas !a puissance du travail ? N 'est-ce pas la faculté qu'a l'artiste de s'étudier lui-même pour tl'ou ver dn.ns son âme · cette poésie, rayons de. l' infinie, qu'il prête aux êtres qui l'entourent? N'est-ce pas comme ln. co"ncentqt.tion de toutes les forces de · l'âme sur un point d'oi:J doit jaillir la lumière? Que faisait Colomb dnrant son sf.joul' à Lisbonne ? Songer et songer toujours à ce cb em i 11 non veau qn'il vou. lair ouvrir au sein des mers. Que fllisa it Newton durant ses veilles laborieuses? Sinon chercher les lois de la natnr.a, les ~ternels principes qui régi ssent l' uni vers. Et l'artiste et le sculpteur, ne doivent-ils pa-; travail ler? Qui ne connaît les rudes débuts èl'un Michel-Ange ou d'un Rubens, les efforts constants, les ét:.:des ardues d'ttn D8mosthène et d'un Bossuet? Quel travail patient ne fitut-il pas RU poète avant qu'il soit devenu l' écho fidèl e cln Ees impressions et qu'il puisse <lire en tou.te vérité: L'amour. la gloire, et la tombe et la vi ~, L'onde qui fuit par l'onde incessam ent suivie, Toute ombre, t out rayon ou propice ou fatal Fait reluire et vibrer mon â me de cristal , Mon âme aux mille voix qu e le Dieu que j'adore Mit au centre de tout comme un échu sonore. Bien sentir, vrJilà la première condition du gén io Bien rendre son émotion, voilà le couronnement. Voil à ce qui produit des œuvres immortelles, ces œuvres d::w• l e~ quelle-s le génie s'in earne et demeure pout· la postt'n·ité. C'est bien là cette longue patience dont parle Buffon. Co mment l'artiste fait-il partager ses idées, ses sentiments aux autres? Comment? Newton répond par une n.clrnirable théorie et passe le reste de ses jours à é tu ct i<> r, à approfondir encore et toujours les insondables ~ e c r e ts de la nature. Micbel Ange répond par une toile immortelle et pleure de désespoir en contemplant luimême son œuvre et en voyant corn bien peu elle reesem ble à l' idéal qu'il a révé. Lutter toBjours pour atteindre son idéal, lutter tou jours sans parvenir; c'est la loi du génie, corn rn~ celle de nous tous depuis qu'en un jom à jamais néfaste le premier homme a entendu la ser..tence irrévocable: "Tu tru va11leras !"

source 0f j oy t o :~11 the English speaking Catholics of the Dominiou , to see its fir-st College so dillt.inctly fa v ored by the Sovereign P o ntiff, who, sage that he i ~;, knows well bow to appreciate the efforts made by good schooL , t.o di:;,eminate true science, science that will have God fo t· its object a nd tha t sees in Him , all that is true a nd good aud that wishes to return the fruits of its l abor~ to H im. We extend our heMty cougmtulatiou ~l OU.awa College in being worthy of such a. f:w or from su e x al ted a so urP-e. T he writer of •'Crimes" in a late issue ol The Chadd,A:k Monthly, complains very bittel'ly of the prevalence of cri me in the world. This is no doubt a ml)st just lament-ation, there is iL-bnudance of evil in our midst. It is a well knowu tact,' but is there not a r enson lor it? The writer points out a few: first, a love of money ; seeondly, an impure press; and thirdly, lutewperance. No one doubts t ha t tbes~ a re the most potent agents of crim e. As a remedy the writer points out the n ec ~:ssity of n better enforcement of the lnws ; a punishment tha t shall be quick and S'l fficient to vindicate the m:oj es ty uf tbe law, etc. The writer would also have the priso11 take n out of politics; good again. The last remedy proposed: "A constant a.nd fem·less denunci a tiou or th ose evils by pulpit ann press;'' thus the writer concludes. Iu the las t instn.uce a true remedy is pointed out; one which alone can be effectual in subd uei ng or lessening crime. Bu t in this la nd of wavering d octrin e ho w cn.u this work its e nd ? One church alone preaches lJoldly ami at a ll times against crime. She alone has the co urage to call things by their right name:l, ::mel if her ministers filled as many pulpits as are filled by the contradic t(yry and wavering rr.inisters of other sects, crime would be lessened. It is her mission to te,tc h a ud save the s inner and she dotls not fear I.Jim because he is poor o r ignorant. She does not. pam per to the rich and make a doctrine to s uit them , Lcr word. is for all men, aml for all times. No wonder ti.Ju t veople of other sects :\l'e grieved at the incr ease of crime. '1 hey fee l its enormity and are powerles:~ to prevent tt. Wilen w ill they learn that there is one Ark a tod ouly one? That the Cntholic ChurclJ is the ark wltNeiu there is safc.ty and oui.side of which there is no j:eace, and. no remedy fo1· the many evils that afflict :udividuals as well as the social body in general ? Until they do, tlleir complaints wi ll be empty sounds and will o nl y go to lihow their utter inability to counteract crime. D oes the wnter not seem a little ambiguou8 here? " In a single state in our own bud, crime in the last two years has increased 300 per cent. This is the State of New Jersey; one of the smallest and most peaceful Htates in the Union." A large in crease surely and if that is a peaceable S tate what are the fighting ones doing?
