THE CIVIL WAL{.

The m<,st remote ca use of that long r nrl disnstrous <'i vii war, was slav ery. It was the ca use of embittering brother against brother, father 11gainst son nnr ~ nation against itself. That nation which, neal'iy Oile hundred years before wit.h the robe of glory, wa~ now to be torn in shreos to satisfy the c laims of two rival parties. An universally respected power was tv be sacrificed to feed the ever increasing avarice of the Southern plantationists; but the guiding band of the Almighty had destined our ('OUntry to live, and one day to stand acknowledged :~s the toremostofthe nations of the globe. The cause of the South which was theeause of tyJ"ants, was trampled in the dust hy the iron hoof of the fiery steed of t,be North. As far bacK as the nJministmtion of Monroe, this question of slavei·y began to assume a serious aspect· At this time t.he use ofslave labor in the north, was almost a thing of the pr1st; while on the contrary, the labor and wealtl1 of the south were r:1pidly Increasing been use of the cotton industry. Soon after, began that fierl'e st1ugg le fur the balance of power, between the free and slave ~tates. The policy of the south was to extend the domain of slavery by admittiug new states; the North wishiug to C<Htfine it1to the places where it already pred uminatcd. Both sides defended their claims in a manuel' which wa~ tru Jy magnanimous. Then took plaec t hn t conte;;t, which, fort.y-years later ended in the grl'nt Ci vi i War. Finally in 1860, a large party in Lhe South declared "tlwt if the next election strengthP ned the preponderance of the N(,rtb, the slave-slates ·.~· oulrl secede and from a confederacy of their 01'1"11." The form<.r events happened the samf\ year, and by the end of the following Janunry seven states had carried out their threat_ ened secession. The people in tlt<>~e sta lt-s confisticated n.Jl the forts, arsenal and other Federal property, excepting Fort Sumter, which Major Awle rson ga llantly defended with only eighty m,en, and Pickens which w:~s savecl by Lieut. ~lummer. · At this critical time, the Union wa5 almos~ devoid cf arms. Mr. Floyd, SecrE>tary of Male, who was a farIH'eing man, Cll.used ali.:..ws;, a!! !.!!~ ~l111·es, muskets and cannon to be trausferred from llOrt l1 ern to southern arsenals. This was sometime before Lhe wa1·. The first shot was fired at the "Star ot the '\Vest,'' an unarmed merchant steamer, when she attempted to bring supplies to Fort Sumter. Soor.. aftet·, the Con fed erates attacked this place, but it was not until the i·nterior was burning and most of the g•ms dismounterl that Major Anderson and his little hand evacuated it ..

Thi.~ bold action of the South, caused a flame of indignation to sweep all over the North. This .k indled the warm, hearts Of all trueJ Americans. As a result there was,.a general npri~;ing a ll over the country, particularly in thea North, wbqse people until now, had believed there wa:~ no real danger. The President did not hesitate to call for a gre~1t number of volunteer!>; the answer was so quick that many of · them began marching the same clay. Thus we see, while the Union was in no want of men, the action of Mr. Floyd had almost diYested it of arms. .Then followed a few battles with alternate victories, but the first worthy of note is the battle o£ Bull Run. On the 21st of July, 1861, an army of twenty thousand men might have been seen cam~·ing in Virginia, about thirty miles £rom Washi:~gton. Opposite Washington, at Arlington he ights, another army, equally as numerous, watched tl1e rmovements of the first with eager eyes. ·' ) They are enemies, the North and Sout.h. Trurupet sound!>! The northern army is prepared for battle! Now it marches forward to <:onquer or die 1 One hour later the host of the North cr,t.-;hes ag·tinst Lhe Southern lines with irresistible force. Tlwy are giving way and the Union will be victorious. But lool~ ! <t tllird army ap·pears, and .it is C01lfederate. TLie F ederals are panicstricken and fly at the fir~t on~et. The victory is won and lost. Five thcn1sand bucii :s cover the green earth; five thousand sou Is are reeei vi ng their etel'llal sentence. This Union defeat Oll l)' hrought fresh clemanrls from Congrt>ss. That honorable hcdy a uthoriZf~ d the President to enlist a half rnillio11 men, anrl to appropriate five hundred million dc .llars to cover the <>xpenses ot the war. During t his prriod bot.h sirlr8 gnined splendid victories on both land nnd wa.l e r; we sba ll spcnk of the battle of Shilo. Genera l Grant. had takeJr a position at Pittsberg Lan_ ding, hopmg to unite with Bu? ll; bnt before this junction could be formed, the Conferlcrates attneked him. The batt le ragerl furiouly, and though the 'Union forces fought for every inch of g round, they wen~ at length driven back to the river. Their defe•tt _woulri hav e bern Pntire had not Buell nt la:;t :uri veri ,a nd ch:.tnged it into a victory. Not long after this, a lnttl e o-:curred, which attrcted -the attention of the world. Never before in the history of the universe was there anything similar to it. It was the battle between the Monitor and Merrimac. The Confederate cruiser having :-unk the Cumberland with all on hoard, was about to cumplete its work of destruction by annihilating the whole Union fleet, when a craft still more strange, appeared as a savior. The Monitor darted at its at! ve1·sa.·y to eommenee a batu~

which lasted for hours. Volley after volley was poured forth with little effect on either side. At last the Merrimac was disabled and nevet· appeared agnin. General Hooker, who ha_d command of an army 11ear Gettysburg, resigned in favor of Meade. Lee attacked him at this point where the mos!- bravely contested battle of the war occurred. For two clays the thundering report of the mmket and cannon could be hem·rl for miles around; for two days the life. blood of men ran in strenms to the river. At length Lee was driven back with a loss of forty-thousand men. Meade lost a little more than half that much. Sixty thousand 'homes w'..ould have vacant chairs. This brought the invasion of the North to arms. The South was never able to muster such a fine force again. All know well of "Sherman's m11rch to the sea.'' · The battle above the clouds ancl Sheridan's ride are events never to be forgottl:ln. The closing scenes of the war, the Fall of Richmond anc1 surrenders of Lee and Johnson. · Thus the civil war was brought to an end; of the million and a half Union men who went to the strife, nine bunrh·ed thousnncl never returned. The Confederates found that half of their- men had perished through wounds, starvation n.nrl sickness. The debt of the United Stntes was twenty-five 'hun_ dred millions of dollnrs. The Confederate debt was wiped out with the fall of 1 . h~t government. The war IJad no sooner ceased thfln t lw news of the cowardly assasination of President Liucoln tl<: sl.led over the conntry. He was shot by Booth, who was himself soon . killed. The termination of tb a war brought with it the · emancipation of fottr million souls. Tbe United States gainecl more respect now than ever, since they have sl.Jown th eir powerful resources. Pe::tce has blessed our country ever since and it is the wish of every true American that this blessing :will never be withdrawn. THE

Tile ren.so n why n monntain or a hill pleases them better than ·,he Gratot monumPnt or the Bartholni Statue, whi0h grratly resembles it, is because the mount::~,in is there and n.lre;tdy pn.id fin· while you have to go around with a subscription pnper to builn the other kind of monuments. l like a mountain better than n monument because you chn u~e a. mountain but you can't a monumrnt. All a monument is goocl for is this; the ol(l country-yap" see one of them and think they ha,:e struck a daisy big hitching post, whieh they quickly put into us·<', only to l·e c hased off ·hy the "cops."

ORIGIN OF lDEAS. Ok18. H. Ball. It is a characteristic d' ou r imperfect minrl to reason, to deliberate, to be discursive in our intelleetual operations, to mour,t by menns of comparative judgen;ents to the knowlenge of a new truth, to discover by dint ofmental digging. ideaf', jud gemr nts, truths, which though th ey were ever true, lay fvr ui<, within the hidcler. depths of the Ht•known. But 011 this subject, a'3 on most any principle in pbilosophy, there are many theories advancPd as to how t.he intell ect rcttlly does arrive at truth. Dome clni1o· that we re<:eive ou r ideas by direct intuiton, other~ through traditi~n, others hold the sy&tem or innate 1dcas, and others sltll that we receive ideas from impressif)ns made upon the senses. , All ttese system~ have many supporters but the one gflnerally accepted by Catholic theologians is that the intellect receives its ideas through the senses. But let us examine the systems and discover the individual worth of e11eh. First we will consider the theory of the Ontologists who claim the direct intllltion of our ideas from God.

Now let us take up the system of innate ideas. This they hold tb ut the mind by its own essence ha8 not suffici1mt po wer of cognition and he nce should be assist- theory was lleld by Plato and is considered as onE) of ed by some other principle, which principle is Gorl .. the most ab~<truse qu estions iu philosophy. This school But in their theory they make false suppositions, they holds that at the creation of the intellect. ideas were d o not expli.tin facts to be explained and they would infu sed int<) it and re main in out· minds in ~kind of a lend logically to absurditi es; hut a ~ystem founded on dorm1nt state until they are cu.lled forth hy some ob · s uch as tha t cannot be held, therefure the system of jecti ve circumstance corresponding with the subjective idRa. Now for Lhe refu tation. That system must IJe t b, e Ontologists must b e rejected. Tlleir fal~e suppositi ons are tll a t obj ective truth is not compatil•le witlt rej ·3c ted where the i Lleas cannot be conciliated with the direc t id eas whie;h :1re psychol ogical; that the ideal unity of the na ture of ma n; with the end of the naturesse nce of things would be as uecessary, imm utn ble u.l C0;1juactl on of the body an cl soul; with the horror and eternal as the essence of God himself; that the · ::tt the separation of these ; wt~h tlle nature of innate ideas of infinite being and oE absolute perfection wnu!cl species; but the system vfinn:ite ideas cannot be recbe proper and positive; bnt all of these are fals e, th ere- onciled with t hese f:tcts, tlJPrefore tlle system or in fore th e Ontol og ist~ mH ke false suppositions. They do .nate id eas m us~ be rejected. I sny that this theory cannot explain facts to be explained. They are, why a nd not be reconciled witll the fact of the unity of man's lww, i11 the prescBt state of life, do our intellectn:tl nature. I prove it as follows ;~Man is constitut.ed of oue cogniti ons d epelj(l upon sen sitive cognition; why every nn.tlll'e and hence has a unity of operntions. This being pvs it i ve el ement of uur l:ogniti on should be corporeal a fact, the intellectual part of his nature and the sensi. ti ve part must be either without aoy suhordination to a nn only kno wn by analogy or tllrou g h negation; why on e another, or the sensitive part must be superior and th <:: exi ste nce of G ocl is not e vid ent. t o every one indirect tlle intellectu<tl, or t.he intetlectual must l>e sus t ~::arl of luving to be expla in eJ to all; but these things perior and direct the sensitive; but neither the first nor th ey d o 11 0t explai11, lle nee we cann.ot accept their t heory.

The EJm.ary Phrenix comes down hard on those who deface property as well as the ones who hE:Ip themselves to books ~tnd papers from the Librnry. We can agree with the Pha!.11i'r. anrl think it not too severe in denunciation of these ungentlemanly practices. Abuses of these kincb are too often found and exposure is the only means left for such people. The laat Censor is about as fanatical as it can conveniently be. It takes the Journal to ta.sk tor an nssertion made ome time ago: "That the Protestant Pulpit has ceased to be a power." That declaration was made with the full assurance of it.s truth rtnd in oo spirit of

T o ay that. the Catholic Church i" ho tile to education is to as ert that which the mot ignorant know to be blse; it is to innjtiate a.JiiJle which has been' ucces· fully refuted n. thCiu <lnd time~; it is to show the gro est ignorance and to nwrit the contempt of eve1·y truthfu l man . The million of !Den and W.J me n who have spent their Jives instructing LI.Je young and wuo e pln.ces are so well filled t.u.day in spite of envy and pe1 ecutiou is a living reputation u!' tlti . To bring forward M proof of yo ur untru Lh :t li tile , beet a unreliable as your own; a t~ing 100t known anywhere and without any claim to authority is more evidence of your want of good sen e. To say th ·1t 1l ivorce i not known in Ontario and is so connnun in l llinois prove nothing. We mad eno lirnitf. We know rlivorce is cnmmon in this state and we " kunw :tJ,o ~h:1t •'Protest:mtism prevails" here s.nd that only p roves our assertion and shows your ignorance to better :~dv : IUt.'\ge. If things are different here to what they are. i11 Oo~t-ario, it is only because the Protestants of this p:1rt nrc more logical tbari they are across the border, and shnke off all a uthority in religious matters. When you mention ''prie~t-ri(lden quebec~" let us say that it h·• the best educatio nal system in Canada. There arc at least six first class College•, all connected wi\h Lavnl University; where men make a course uf SPVCn ancl eight years, not of jou1·, as they do in your second grac~P. school.~ of ·• Protestant Ontn.t·io." Y"u quote statistics about education in Rome. We might riot stop t.o consider this because yon bring it forward with no autb.ority. The Central R ay, torooth, wh :1t little worm is this to dictate to men, to Cllris• inns? ·who srt it up ns a teucber, an instructor?
