FANATIcIsM STILL TRIUMPHANT IN THE LAND OF

other day, it announced that the bill in favor

States-Cathoc or rrotestant-has been incorpo-
rated and received the fostering care of the State.
Old Harvard finds, perhaps, in the College of The
Holy Cross" at Worcester, rival under the pow
erful jurisdiction Of the Jesuit Professors, who,
from their love Of liberty, have been driven into
exile and unfurled their banner of purely classical
education in the land Of the Pilgrims. An act

State never compensated the nuns for their inn

that her representatives have refused to grant \
