PRoaRKss OF THE ROMAN CArnoI.lcs AT THE WEST.
We see it stated in paper published at st. Louis
that the Catholics have in that city, besides Uni
versty, Theological Seminary Gin Soulard's addi-
tiOn) Medical College, and several Free Schools,
at which upwards of 4OOchildren daily attend. The
public schools are maintained at an annual expense
of $4,000, and yet furnish much smaller amount
OF instruction to the youth Of St. Louis, than the
free schools Of the reved Jesuits! 1t is also stated
that these institutions are conducted with much
liberality and public spirit.
1t appears to be the success and progress Of the
Catholics at the West which have so much stirred
up the bitter feelings of the clergy, and particularly
STREET PEDLARs-Can nothing be done to
drive those street pedlars out of the highways and
byways? They pay no taxes-have no habitation,

cuous buildings, with as much GOODNESS as if they
owned the property.
