TheBloodlessVictoryofOurFaith.

ASTRIIGGLZWITHUNITEDRAMSANDORMEDS.

NeverbeforeinthehistoryofEngtheworld,haspriest,orprelate,or land,rarelybeforeinthehistoryof Popepreachedtoacongregationso vastinitsdimensionsasthatwhich, theMostRev.Dr.Downey,Archbishopof.Liverpool,addressedatthemarvellouscommemorationoftheCentenaryofCatholicEmancipationheldat BroadgreenonSundaylast,saysthe "CatholicTimes"ofSeptember13.

Theoccasionwasagreatone,and thesermonwasineverywayworthy oftheoccasion.Withanearnestness andaneloquencethatgrippedthe heartofeachoneofhisfourhundred thousandhearers,hisGracetoldofthe winningofthevictoryoffaith,avictorythat,becauseofthechivalryof thevanquished,leftnomournersinits train.

HepaidawarmtributetothememoryoftheCatholicandnon-Cathoic championsofEmancipation,naturally stressingthepartwhichLiverpoolhad borneinthestruggle,andshowedthe CatholicsoftheArchdiocesehowthey mightraiseaworthymemorialofvictory. TheMenWhoWodOurFreedom.

TheArchbishop,preachingfromthe text,"Thisisthevictorywinchovercomeththeworld,ourFaith"(I.John, 5,4,1,said:

"AlreadywehavecelebratedthecentenaryofCatholicEmancipationbefittinglybymanyMassesandtridua, andontheSundaynearesttothe actualanniversarydayofthepassing oftheActofCatholicEmancipation byamemorabledemonstrationinSt. George'sHall.Butonthatoccasion tenthousandpeoplewereforcedtoremainoutsideontheplateau,whilst thousandsofothershadstayedaway simplybecausetheyhadrealisedthe hopelessnessofgainingadmissionto thecity'slargesthall.

TheVoiceofthePeople.

"Therewasawidespreadfeelingof disappointmentamongstthemany who'adbeendeniedtheopportunity ofliftinguptheirvoicesinasong ofvictoryandapaeanofthanksgiving.Soonthatfeelingfoundexpression,anditwasmurmuredfromall quartersofthecitythatwhatwas wantedwasamonsteropen-aircelebsatiintowhichourCatholicmenand womencouldcomeintheirteeming thousands.

"Whyarewegatheredtogetherin thisway?Quitefrinkly,weare gatheredtogethertocelebrateagreat victory,thehistoricvictorygaineda hundredyearsagobytheconcordof ourforbearsandtheirwell-wishers,the victotywhichsetitssealuponthelibertywherewithChristhadmademen free,thevictoryofcivilenfranchisement,thevictoryofjusticewhichdoes injurytonone;infine,thevictory whicnovercomeththeworld,our Faith.

Onthisday,whenwecelebratethe victoryofFaith,wemaywellcommemorateourgenerousprotagonists, andsay,withtheauthoroftheIffook ofEcclesiasticus:'Letusnowpraise menofrenown,andourforefathersin thisgeneration'(xliv,1).

Memoriesofthe'PenalDays

STORYOFAOINAPIL.

LulworthCastle,Dorsetshire,which wasdestroyedbyfirelastmonth,was oneofthemostnotedCatholichouses inEngland,aplaceofmanymemories andassociatedwithimportantevents inthehistoryoftheChurch'sfortunes duringandafterthePenaltimes.

Theburnt-outcastlewasarchitecturallyafour-square,heavydonjontype ofhouse,withacirculartowerateach oftheangles.ItwasbeguninElizabethantimes,butwasunfinishedwhen thepropertywasbought,in1641,by SirHumphreyWeld,saidtohavebeen thefirstCatholicofhisline.Thereafter,fornearly300years,Lulworth remainedthehomeoftheWeldfamily, andacentreofCatholicfervourand activity.

Itwouldtakelongtorelateallthat theWelds,havedonefortheFaithin England.Somehavebeenpriests, somenuns;oneofthenamebecamea princeoftheChurch;another,alayman.wasbyhisgenerositythefounderofStonyhurst,thegreatJesuitCollegeinLancashire.

Towardstheendoftheeighteenthcentury,however,butseveralyearsbeforetheerectionof'Masshouses"was permittedbytheActof1791,Lulworth becamepossessedofachapel.

AmongMr.Weld'sguestsatLulworthshortlybeforethattimewas

KingGeorgeIII.,oneofahalf-dozen Englishsovereignswhoatonetimeor anotherhavebeenvisitorsatthecastle.TheKingwasaskedwhetherhe wouldsanctionthebuildingofaCatholicchapel.This,asaconstitutionalmonarch,hefeltunabletodo; but"FarmerGeorge"hadashrewd senseofthepossibilities,andoffered hishostasuggestion:Whyshouldnot Mr.Weldbuildamausoleum,against whichtherewasnolaw,anduseitas achapelafteritwasbuilt?

Thehintwasactedupon,andtheresultwasthecurious-lookingdomed erectionafterwardshallowedasSt. Mary's,Lulworth.ManyoftheWeld familyareburiedthere,includingthe founderofStonyhurst.

Manygreatfunctions,too,havetakenplacewithinthechapelwalls.At leasttwooftheEnglishVicarsApostolic-BishopDouglassandBishop WilliamGibson-wereconsecrated there;thepreacheratthelatter'sconsecrationwasthefamousBishopMilner,Ireland'sallyinthecampaign againsttheinsidious"Veto"proposals.
