CATTLE HEARING MASS.

"It was fac Sabbath morning in sum
mer, that MIC heard the noise Of
some cattle passing his house On going
to the door, he discovered his neighbours
son driving several cattle before him.
"Where are you going with the cattle
at this hour ?" asked Me-
Il am driving them" said the boy with
careless gravity, ito mass"
TO mass?" replied NC.
Yes" said the bow, Ito mass. Yon-
der is the priest waiting for them"
1.-The boy then pursued his way; the
COY" were assembled and the priest sung
mass to them
That circumstance is of common oc-
currence in Ireland Mr.. Nolan, the
Roman priest recently converted from Po-
perry to christianity. affirms-"the Irish
priests offer masses for tie prosperity Of
horses, lands, cattle, dnA rar1eus other
property" Itmay be asked, why are cat
tie assembled to hear mass Here is
good Popish reason for this biasphemous
absurdity.
The mass which is offered for cattle
is callel the Mass of the Holy Ghost -
and on account Of its supposed superior
virtue, is sold for double price. The usu-
al price Of a common mass is two shi!linos
and sixpence, but a mass of the Holy
Ghost is considered good bargain at five
shillings. When that mass is celebrated,
the cattle Of the mass purchaser are as
senlbled in the house, in order to establish
the belief Of the priest assertion, that they
only enjoy the benefit of his massing ser
vices If the priest dill not make that
crafty exclusion, all the people in the dis
trict mi ght imagine that their cattle had
the benefit Of the mass; which would d.
mlnish the pries!ly income which is de-
rived from this nefarious traffic. This is
the cause Of the "close communion"
which the priests have established for their
congregation Of cattle.
How deeply is il to be lamented that
intelligent men, who influence public opin-
ion. should perpet5ate such blasphemous
frauds and impostures, by the co.nplimen-
tary language in which they speak Of the
Roman priesthood 1t is high time that
christians should free themselves from all
participation in that criminality, and in
holy disregard Of the censures of an I'M
godly world. lift up their voices, like a
trumpet, against those denominations and
the teachers of them" ...s =. -

MURDER OF A RoMISH PRIEST.

Before the world, charge Jean Jacques
Lartigue, Roman prelate of Montreal, and
the Popish priests Dutresne, Phelan. and
BONN, with the murder of a Canadian Ro-
man priest, named LEsperance--and l
charge those same four men, that on or
about the LIST October, 1884, they did put
that priest, L'Esperance. to death by poi.
soa-and that fact can be proved by Two
competent and unimpeachabfe witnesses,
who personally saw both the preparations
for the murder, and also the corpse af;er
the poison had produced its deadly effect
The above fact have sent to England,
expressly to induce a mandamus from the
British government, for the necessary ju-
dfcial investigation. The witnesses are
ready at any time to appear before the
competent authorities. G.B.

In truth the whole inquiry is this. Are
Maria Monks declarations the Caaadi-
an priests and nuns accurate9 and are
those PaEal ecclesiastics the inordinate
sinners whom she depfcFs2 All the Gun
ming craftiness," with which those Jesuits
and their minlons " he in wait to deceive"
will not avail to blind christians to that
TOPIC which is the only genuine point of
investigation"
Falsehooa or truth respecting Maria
Monk personally, are equally insignia
cant and irrelevant; except as they Illus
! ,rate the acts of priests and nuns. Four
facts are incontestable. |. Maria Monk
,Ons Nun IN the Hotel Dieu Canrent;
and all the perjured testimony which the
Roman priests can purchase, will not alter
that verify. g. Arti6cers of all kinds,
were employed for months in stopping up
the subterraneouS passages between the
priests residence and the nunneries in
Montreal; in altering the exterior ave-
nues of the Convent; and in changing
the passages, the position, the names, and
the uses of the various apartments which
Maria Monk describes. 3. Messrs. Per-
kins, Curry, Esson and Holmes, were
not admitted into one fourth part of the
Hotel Dieu Nunnerv-and did net enter
one of the secluded chambers exclusively
TO the nuns, for their transaction Of the
mystery of iniquity.' 4. A book has
been compiled in the Hotel Dieu- Nunuery
of Montreal, in the name O: Malia Monk
and during several months past, every ar
tifce which the Jesuits of Canada could
devise, has been adoItd to trepan
and kidnap that young woman, that she
might be transferred to the Hotel Dieu
Convent, then TO be made solernn'y 10 at
test to the truth Of the falscAeods aOhich
hars teen forged IN her name; and i'm
mediately after that simulated testimony
can be obtained, she is condemned to fol-
low her sister "sSa;ntes" into the pit of
eStlnction!
All these four FACTS, do hereby offer
to prove at any time, and in any place in
Canada, as Mr. Lartigue, the preIate of
Montreal, may appoint What will be
his reply! L stand upon my character"
| Then tell all the world who choose to
know ii: that Mr. Lartigue, and the priests
named in Maria Monks " Awful Dsclos-
ures," and with few exceptions all the
other Canadian Cures, have no other char
ac1ers than this and utter confidently
the appalling truth. THY are the most
dissOlute proyaigates IN the parishes and
teams eoh1ch they im,est; and are no more
worthy Of credit upon any TOPIC connected
with their ungodIy priestcrah, than-,o
speak in Bible language" Seducing
spirits, speaking lies in by pocrisy having
their conscience scared with a hot iron,
who through covetousness, with feigntd
works, make merchandise Of the souls OF

HOTEL DIEU NUNNERY AT MONTEAL

An old friend in Canada has written me

marks. maria Monks work in my
opinion, is full of flr,fetched lies; and a
complete catch penny where she can

EMMY declare, that Maria Monk is well

II is astonishing, after all the discus
sion upon this subject, that any persons
can thus so completely misapprehend the
true question. The character of Maria
Monk has not the most remote connection
with this investigation-nor has any per-
son ever brought it up, either as testimony
or for scrutiny, except the Roman priets.
Maria Monk has been Nun! That fact
alone determines her character in my es-
innate, and according to my acquaintance
with Canadian Converts.
Nogreater proof Of infatuation can be
ad1uced. than the conduct Of many nomi-
nal Protestants upon this topic. One com
