I r. these we find treated, not subj ects pertaining strictly to College life, but 1i ve topics; issues whi Gh are of practi~ cal utility to a ll, and whic~ furnish food to the various minds of which a College is made up. In the editorials we fino marked the character of a pa per; in this al ~o lies its strength or wenkne s, and consequently on the pQWet and standard of its teachings will depend its succe$s as ttn educn.tor.

an(l the paper bespeaks th e results of its i;, bors m t his respect.

W ell r eally we are de lighted to see the Un iven ity Repm·ter- come iu with a new bead, a no that no or<'linflry one either. You look fifty per cent ;Jetter anc1 oth er changes to which we are sure you are not b li nd would still further Improve your appearance. The RepO?'te?· is well supported if we consioer the fact that more than one f ourth is m ade up of advertisements. By the way we notice on page two, a little ad. which we believe is not an app ropriat e one for a College Journal. It would look much better in a daily, though such snide things cannot ornament an y sh eet on which they appear.

The Szmbeam h as once more cast a ray o£ light upon ns. T o us at first sight it seem ed the same beam as o£ old. But oh! when we heard the pitiful moan sent up by the poor forsaken editor we were compelled to utter the only groan we h ad in stock. Why do you mourn oh Sunbeant? Surely not £or want o£ editors .

Your number seems sufficient. To seek pity is it?

Well your sorrow filled one page £or your first issue any how and that is a point gained. " Dinah Ninlock Cr aig" is a good article, l en g hty, but somewhat loosely strung. In tracing the simple life o£ this f amo us author, the writer strikes a comparison between Mr s.

Cr aig and Miss Willard. Both are shown in their desire o£ helping mankind generally and their own sex in particular . Let us see to whom mos.t admiration can be given. Both says the writer were o£ different dispositions surrounded by different influences. "Miss Ninlock was o£ a r etiring nature, dwelling in home as h er sufficient kingdom and possessed by ,a r are compreh en sion o£ the nobility and importance o£ h er duties as its queen. " What a charming picture is here painted of woman in her own sphere, which she fills so well and where h er influence is destined to give forth it.s choicest fruits. On the contrary Miss Willard as the writer continues, is by h er public position " the sub:ject alike o£ human eulogy and condenm ation ;" and we may add without any assurance that h er diffic ult labors will ever bring about lasting ch anges or sufficiently r epay the hard work o£ this well meaning lady. vVe may conclude that woman will do most £or mankind in the position God destined £or h er , "Qu een of h ome," and n ot in the more public places £or which she is not fitted and where h er efforts will n either be . effectual nor appreci ated.

Th e Kansas Catholic which h as, £or a long time, labored undex difficul ties, is now by the gen erosity of its friends, on the way to success. We rejoice at its good fortune and £eel sure the able management under which it is placed will render it a power £or goo~ in the growing est .

not be surprised to bt) ~ccosted by t.his self-sau1e indi-. vidud to-morrow in the park, not blind but bearing around his neck the sign "H elp the old sqldier." It's to blind you this time. · We often find rare artistic studies in the persons of some of these wandering musicia.u.s, especially in the East. Here are landed directly a number of Italian peasants. Rigged in their divers-coloured costumes, their complexion a rich olive. A more pict uresque fig,. ure one can scarcely imagine than one of these m aidens standing on the curb-stone playing an accordion.

They are wonderfully gmceful in their movements Rnd t\ey usudly pose with a slight inclination of the head, looking pe.-haps for a benificent hand to appear at the window above.

But the Itali r!.n men areas common-place and ungainly as their sisters are unique and attnwtive. They generally dress likeour " old reliable tramp." Butt.he music they discourse is far ahead of any other heard iu our streets as made by beggars. They <1re commonly found in gc oups of three, playing on a fiute, harp and violin. Eesides being of a grade far above ani othe~, .. their music is executed better and on more melodious inst•·uments.

But of all excruciatingly dete. table annoyllnces (even these words don'thalf express it) the h and-orgc1n fiend with the monkey carries off the palm,- likewise he carries off a large proportion of our superfluous "cusswords" and a small percentage of a nickle. His organ is sure to contain the very oldest of the old, arranged as the very longest of the long. One piece, "The Last Rose o£ Summer" for instance, and the monkey, will constitute a repe·r toire. Sometimes a rare treat will come in~the shape o£ two selections (selector R. I. P. ), the aforesaid "Last R. " with the addition of "Home Sweet Home" and ten varir tions. Conce:t:ts of this character are generally given a transieut audienee. However we frequently see the "dago" and his monkey off among the residences playing to a, crowd of perhaps a dozen juvenile Americans, with their hands clasped . behind their backs and their little mouths agap. whq watch . with the greatest satisfaction the antics of the monkey on a gate-post, ringing a door-bell, or offering his cup to one of them. When the organist has finished, he pleads in broken English, "Giva de monk a pen." If the pennies .are forthcoming he will rem ain for another tune, if not, he gives the monk's rope a pull . and with his pet on his shoulder m oves to <'mother row of houses, But the same crowd generally follows for two or three blocks, and i£ they. drop off their places are soon filled by otherchildren.

There are many other classes of common musicians found, on onr f:l treetB but those I have mentioned are

th e real "characters." They pl~y and pt.wy ~11 day lon · with nobody to listen to. their discordant roelodi&;, yet out of the stray pennies that find their way to their cnps and caps they pick out enough at n.igktfa,U 'to buy a few meagre rations. So from day to d..ay they ma.uage to keep body aml soul together and hide them.. selves under a few rags, while they spend their hour upon the stage of life.

se passe à mes ure que les uns clécou vrent la vérité et que les au tres s'effacent, cependant l'entêtement cond nisa,nt l'homme a bien des choses, l'on trouve toujours moyen de remplacer les chefs aussitôt que la mor t les enlève. Le suj et est d'abord choisi, puis comme· on veut être de l'Eglise et sans l'écouter de j itit , le nom du nouvel élu est , elit-on, envoyé a R.ome qui répond invariablement en rappelant l'excommunication déjà lancée, et cle clr·oit.l Enfin T on s'arroge le pouvoir de consacrer quand ·même l'individu présenté et , lorsque les circonst an ces l'exigent, au moy en d'un nonévêque pour troisième assist:mt. Qu'est-ce qu e ceht f~üt puisqué d'après Saint Cyran, "les évêques sont éga,nx au P ape, et les simples prêtres aux évêques!!

Néanmoins si le J an sénisme commen cé avec tant d'ardeur pas Jansen , Duvergier, Arnault ete., n 'est presque plus rtcn eomme secte, il n'en a pas moins porté ses ravages surtout en Fntn.ee et en Belgique.

(Ceci s'explique par la nationalité des deux premiers fondateurs: J ansen était flamand et Du vergier était un basque) Car vous savez que ses ouvrage. d'une spiritualité sévère, outrée, trachante, contraire aux enseignements de l'Eglise, ont séduit beaucoup d'âm es sans défi an ce, ~t cela dtotns t ous les rangs de ht société. En outre les négligents y trouvai ent une excuse à leur éloignement coupable cles sacrements et les ferv ents s'y formaient à la tiédeur, en apprenant à se priver elu meilleur soutient de la vertu , la communion. C'est encore aux funestes effets du .Jansénisme mal étouffé que l'on attribue généralement en Europe l'infidélité actuelle de la, France. J e dis mal étouffé parceque les· partisans de la, secte subissaient. la condamnation sans <>onviction et purement à l'extérieur. En continuant <1 se passer des sacrements les âm essesontaffaiblies, puiP, comme conséquen ce n aturelle, est venue l'indifférence pour la messe, l'observa~ion du Dimanche et cle toutes les pratiques religieuses en général. Ensuite, chacun sentant un besoin de règles morales, c-:i-cl, de religion au moins naturelle, l'on est tombé pen ù peu dans le rationalisme, et 1'athéisme. Vous savez que c'était pourtant au déisme que voulaient conduire les instigateurs du Jansénisme. L'assemblée secrète tenue à Bourg-Fontaine, en 1621, le prouve irréfutablement, mais la pente devint tellement glissante que d'étape en étape l'on en est arrivé à fieu, aidé que l'on fut grandement par la franc-maconnerie. Et voilà que tout le monde répète, comme ce bon français que j'ai rencontré: "La France est empoisonnée de la tête au pieds." Ainsi vous voyez que l'abbé Fu,·et avait raison de dire que "le Jansénisme a détaché le cœur de la France Catholique elu cœur de Jésus-Christ vivant clans le Sacrement de son amour. La terrible parqle cb1 Maltrf' s'est ·alors ::~,ccomp1i e ((S1;

meure pa:; en moi . ... . ... il se dessècher·a" etc. Ce• pendant, d'après Mgr. Fevre, Pa:ray-le-Monial a offert nne planche de salut en posant ht dévotion aq S ~:~,.cré~ Cœur de J ésus ét ht <>ommu:hion fréquente comme contre-poids du respeçtueux élo1:gneme-nt des sarYreme1ûs introduit p<tr le J ansénisme. Aussi la secte a.-t-elle. rugi "sicut leo rugiens," démontmnt une fois de plus qu'elle ne démord pas de S<t vieille opposition aux enseigements de l'Eglise qui peut àpprouver cle d1·oit, mn.is q~ 'eux, les J ansénist es, peuv ent repousser de faû Bref', on voit clftirement et depuis sou origine, que le Jm1sénisme, comme toutes les dissiden ces, n'est qu'une œuvre humaine. Une dame · dis"'it, dans le temps, que la mission entreprise par la secte de vouloir réformer les pratiques universellement rec;ues dans l'église d!! cait êtrl' f ausse parcequ elle n'avait aucune délégation de Rome. En effet Gette mission a tellement fau ssé les idées de ceux qui ont cru pouvoir en adopter les maximes q n'elles se reflètent clans la littérature et même dans les beaux arts. Dès le commencement P ascal y ·a mis ses petites lett1·es et Boileau sa poés;e, puis les peintres raccourcissent tellemen t les bnt s de la ct·ot:x qu'il n'en reste presque plus 1... .

J e m'oublie en vous ent.ret enant d'une page d'histoire que vous savez comme aucun . .J'ajoutemi toutefois un mot sur le crucifix Janséniste, c'est que, si les mains du Seigneur ont été fixés avant les pieds, ( opinion généraie ) et que les trous des clous étaient trop éloignés pour la longueur de ses bras, il faut unefort e dose de ve·rtu c respect-ueuse pour .songer à placer les deux mains presqu'ensemble au-dessus de let tête! A la rig ueur. le u ucifiement peut être diversement représenté puisque les quatre Evangélistes se bornent à dire q ne les J nifs "le crucifièrent," Mais les Jansénistes tie.nnent à leur mode pour signifier que le Christ n'est pas mort pour tout le monde 1 Jésus mourant sur la croix, les bras étendu pour nous recevoir" est nn symbole trop opposé à leur doctrine pour être adopté.

Comme les novateurs prêchaient à leuT débût que le Catholicisme d'alors n'était plus la vraie religion depuis 600 ans, elle avait donc cessé cl'êt,re vrai(>, à leur elire, depuis 1021, puisqu'ils annonçaient cela en 1621.

Une petite promenade a Halhertstade en Prusse leur aider~tit ù: rectifier cette accusation gratuite. On trouve en effet au trésor de la cathédrale de cette ville un plat en or massif de 18 pouces de diamètre et qui pourrait leur être utile comme plat de cir·constance 1 Ce plat servait autrefois pour l'offrande du pain à l'église de By. zance. Le tour en est richement gravé e 0rné cle bustes en relief, tandis qu'au centre se trouvent les principaux personnages du Calvaire : Jésus, Marie et St. Jean.

A PROVERB.

It is said: 'A man is known by the company he keeps'.

Using a literal translation · of the French saying, we have: "T ell me whose company you keep, and I shall tell you what you are." , Obviously to all it is so implied that our associations will stamp our character with some strong and indelible marks. If we associate with the vulgar, our acts, manners and speech must necessarily be stained with vulgarity, since owing to a fatality cast upon our nature, we are to imitate what our eyes and ears do see or hear. If we move in the society of the sensible, of the good or of the wise, by a similar effect our conduct and speech will expose a mind replenished with good, hig h, noble inspirations.

1£ such can be said on t he results of social intercourse, what have we not to say of the influence books will exercise Oll the people's minds. Our first quotation, somewhat altered, will stand good here. "Tell me what books you read, and I shall tell you what you think." If relations through books are entertained with frivolous, silly, immoral people, our mind must fatally again become replenished with frivolous, silly and immoral ideas. If we seek after the writings of the honest, learned and highly tutored authors, good education, lea.rning and honesty will get a foothold in us and shine at all times and places. From these few lines it will be ensily conceived how useful and necessary it is for us to make a judicious selection of reading books and companions.

ODE TO THE WABASH.

Oh! ca1m W abtLsh slowly flowing Past my native city old, How oft with the red and gold Of a summer sunset glowing Do I see thee in my dreams; And so real the picture seems That I feel upon my brow, So strangely I scarce know lj.ow, Thy cool breezes softly blowing.

I!: I·

!•

No huge billows, hissing seething O'er thy bosom rush and roll -Making bells of warning toll; No waves break on thy shore wreathing With foam every gray rock near: But thy laughing ripples clear Make a music I love more Than the Atlantic's solemn roar When lashed by the storm-king breathing.

BY L. G. A Govemment is a special power and r ig ht gi ven by God to man of ruling his fellow-mer: accorclinf; to some constitutional code of laws bused on the t en uorn tna ndments. The first government has originated in the patriarchal families, wherein the fath er was th e supreme guid e; and watclled over every brancl1 or his f~tmil y.

This fo rm of government was nothing but a development of what WftS imuitive ly in th~ heart of man ; therefore govemment bas its cradle purely in u.e human heart. And history , upon its all record ing page, makes it it.s pleasant ctuty to tell us how happy th•)se people lived; n aturally such a ruler had an irnmedi:.te interest in the welfare of those whom he govemed.

Later on as those families exte nded , as we r;ay reacli. ly .imagine to !!-lmost infinity, so much so that th e ties of blood being constantly stretched by every new .born child, were gradually broke n a nd the patt·iarchal form of government was insuffiei~nt for our forefathers. Here we see a new developement of the human mincl, or ol

The Catholics of Australia ttn d India have presented the Pope with $1,000,000. .

A generous Catholic of Grand Rapids, :Mich., left $60,000 to the Bishop to fotmd an Orphan Asylum. This good work the Bishop has carried out.

It is said that the amount of money the Holy Fatherreceived as Jubilee gifts is $5,800,000. France was the most liberal donor whilst Lhe sma.Jlest offerings came from Portland, Portugal and Spain.

The Pope i,n donating $00,000 to the anti-sl avery monument, has written to Cardinal Lavigeri e iu terms of pntitie and encouragement of the scheme in which he wa s commit;sioned by the Pope, to invite the co-operation of Europe.

A cablegram from Rome announces the a.ppointment of Rev. Dr. D. J. O'Connell now President of the American College at Rome, as Bishop · of H.ichmond, to succeed the Right Rev. John J. Keane, who recently resigned his bishopric to take charge of the Catholic Uni versity at Washin gton as its first Rector. Dr. O'Connell, the new Bishop is a native of Columbia, S. C. and was educated at St. Mary's CoUege. As a student he gave evidence of extraordinary talent. -when appointed Presideut of the American College, five years ago, he was the youngest ecclesiastic who had ever ftlled that high and important otl'tce.

Miss Eliza Allen Starr of Chicago recently gave three of her famous lectures viz: "The Revival of the Poetry of Art," "Giotto's Tower," and on Haphael's famous picture "La Disputa," before the Christian Doctrine Society of the church of the Immaculate Conception, Lowell, Mass.

The unusual sight of about twenty-two of the chiefs and head men of the Sioux Indians attending Holy Mass was witnessed at '"\Vashington on a recent 8unday. Some of the Indians wore crncitlxes on their breasts, and aU of them were very quiet and apparently devout during the imposing ceremonies.

The remains of Sister Bourgeois, the founder of theN otre Dame Convent, are to be removed from the church of :Notre Dame de Pi tie to the new convent at Moukland near Mou~ treal. 188 years ago, Mother :Marguerite Bourg:eois passed awa.y, leaving a record for sanctity, scarcely equaled in the annals of the Canadian church.

Ori Oct. 20th. Mr. J. ~\..McMaster placed ~ in the Bishons' Memorial Hall at Notre Dame Univer~:>i{y, all hi s fathe~·'s books, pictures and correspondence. These with several relics and the flle of the "Freemans ,J ourna.l" nsecl by the veteran editor of that paper are to be arranged in an alcove of the Bishops' Memorial Hall, to perpetuate the memory of one who fought so nobly in the defence of religion at a time when a champion was sorely needed. Among the rel ics is the life size bust of Most Rev. Archbishop IInghes, which Mr. Mc!'.iaster always kept on his desk.

A marble slab calling attention to the principal e.vp,nts in the life of Mr. McMaster and a life-size portrait in oil by Gregori will also be placed in the alcove devoted to the mem oirs of this illustrious champion of onr fait!J. . The French Central Committee has at lengt.h JlHhli shed the appeal which was expected from it. After an excuse for the tardiness of its action, the Committee declares that from the 1st. of Oct. its ofiices (Rue du Regard) are open to receive subscriptions and offers of enlistment in the military expeditions aUowed by thP. Oovernment.s interested in the

suppression of the slave-trade. As soon as the resources of the Society will r ern1it, an expedition will start for th~t p.t.rt of Africa where competent authorities judge its action most likely to be effi.cacious. "Christians of France," concludes the a11peal, "our voice is the feeble echo of the cries of agony that arise out of the depths of Africa-let it not be said that yon have made no answer!" Before the publication of this appeal. His Eminence Cardimtl J.Javigerie, who, by the vvay, is at present on a visit to his birthplace previous, to starting for Home, received, among other subscriptions, lump sums of eighty-five, tlfteen , and ten thous. am1 francs. l n view of t he reports which have been telegr aphed over l~ ur o p e concerning th e attitude taken by the German ·E mperor on the Homan Question, too much prominence cannot be given t o a resolution which was taken by the French prelates present recently at the ceremonies in Orleans in honor of the late MgT. Dupauloup. This reso lution cannot be described as other than a unanimous protestation of the whole F reneh episcopate, for, besides the fact that there were over thirty prelates actually present, the absent ones were otncially repr esented by their vicar-general The resolution in question addre -;f\it ~ o t'te ' ·overeign Pontiff, stated that "the Cardinals, Archbishops, and Bi ~h ops assembled fer tl:e inauguration of the monument to Mgr. Dupanloup, and to render homage to the venerated memory of the valiant advocate o e the ri ghts of the Church and of the temporal sovneignty of the Pope., . .laid at the feet of His Holiness their sentiments of humble respect, admiration and absolute devotion to his sacred person, his supreme authority ~tn d the incle]n ndence of the Holy t;ee. 'J:he act is expressive. (Church Progress.)

A short time ago one of the most impressive ceremonies of the Catholic church took place in the Cathedral of Baltimore.

It was the cm~ secration of Rt. Rev. JohnS. Foley as Bishop of Detroit. Yl ithin the sanctuary were gathered several · Archbishops, n score of Bishops, many Superiors of Religions Orders, and a hundred clergymen from all parts of the United States. The procession marched :rom tile Cardinal's residence to the Cathedral, and when all l\f!Cl takn. their places the scene wa ·. •Hdeed r;· ost im;piring. The Archbishops occupied the first pla "e:o; on J,l,th sides of the grand altar, with the Bishops immediately behind them. The priests and seminarians were scattered through the sanctuary and aisles of th e church. Cardinal Gil>bons assisted by Hev. M. ,T. Dempsey of Detroit, and Hev. Ed. Kelly of Chicago, celebrated High M tss. Archbishop Ryan, of Philadelphia, the most gifted orator of the hierarchy, preached a most eloquent sermon. He took for hi s subject the following text. from the Acts of the Apostles, "'rake heed to yourselves, and to all the a ock over which the H oly Ghost hath placed you bishop, to rule the Church of God, which He hath purchased with His own blood."

After speaking of the great responsibility of those wl:o have charge over others, of the Independence of the Popes and of the life of Bishop Foley, he concluued his beautiful sermon by the following toudting w ; t llS, wl!lch are as it were a parting charge; ·''.l ; erefo<·t: .Rt. Rev. li'rieJJu r.cl brother in the episcopate go _orth from the scenes of your youth and manhood for these s<:tblime fun ctions. The gre;~ t charge will be a salutary preparation for the final farewell to all things here below. The supernatural will more than compensate you for all tlw losses of the n:t.ttlraJ.
