mere Is phrase current on O0dhge,
! regarding monetary affairs, which precisely ex-
| presses the condition of most of the States on
| this side the Atlantic. The reporter OF the state
| of the money market says, Z" IL is uneasy" This
| is exactly the case with the States Of Europe
uneasy,-restless, anxious, suspicious, alarmed.
| One class wondering where the outburst will
! begin,-in hope; another class waiting for it,in
fear; for all classes anticipate it somewhere, and
are quite sure, from the complicated and inter
mingled interests of all, mutually involving one
another, that, take place, where it will, it will
| more or less, affect the whole.
| Most look to France,-most dissatisfied with
herself parties most nearly balanced and in the
| center, with arms outstretched on all sdes,-to
ward Austria, England, Itav-sure, if inter
! nally convulsed, to draw some, or all, into the
| vortex. And Austria,-and of course her brother
! despots Frederick, William and Nicholas,-s
dissatisfied with England, for the triumphant
enthusiasm amid which Kossuth is making his
Progresses" the man whom Louis Napoleon
warned off the soil of France, lest his presence
| should enkindle the smouldering flame of demo.
| cracy on the one hand, and offend his Austrian
ally on the other. And England is alarmed for
the possible influence of any connections IN
France on her democracy but still more for tha-
of Austria, through the Pepedom, on Catholic
Ireland For Dr. Cahill, who Is now the
popular clerical agitator,-who Is carried
from place to place, preaching Public Ser
mons, followed by a dinner to afford op
| portunity for political demonstrations, not
| only over Ireland, but throughout England
of lot ygh reh he Ia
| writing to Lord John Russell, on the "perSecu-
| tons of the Roman Catholics IN general and the
"wrongs" of Ireland IN particular, boasts OF the
desperate loyalty " with which the Irish Catho-
| lies adhered to their religion and their kings,
| when the Premers ancestors and their Ehgllsh
| associates were "chopplng of the head OF one
king and banshing another--to take successor
from the poorhouse and put him on the throne
| all the while changing their religion, as readily
| as the cut of their coats" And he adds, THAT
! he has made arrangements, with men his equals
| In dignity and official position, and his superIors
| in intellectual and moral worth, for the publlca-
ton and circulation OF these letters all over Eu
| rope, and this in connection with England'S
| Colonial difficulties, and lreland's dlsafiectlon,
| for the purpose OF increasing the Odlum III which
the ntermeddling policy of the British Govern
ment has causedh her TO be held all over Continent
al Europe, and preparing them to take vengeance
| when the hour Of retIlbutlon arrives. There
| was a time when men would have been reader
TO think and to do all this than to boast so open
| ly of it but DR.. Cahll adds, that he does not
fear the Premier, for that in the tckiish state OF
! his Government, he will be compelled to prefer
| counting the favor of the Catholic prelates TO
prosecuting them for their studied and openly
| gloried-in violation OF the AntTltles Act"
THE DOUBLE CRUSADE.
Some time ago, Father lgnatius-thatis, Hon
and Rev. George Spencer, brother OF the late
| Premier Lord AlthoTpe, one OF the first OF the
| numerous band OF Honora0les and Reyerends
| by which the Roman Catholic Church IN Eng
| land has been swelled so wonderully-pub-
| lished A Crusade, as he calledit, Tor the con-
| version OF England, that Is, every one was to
| offer up certain prayers, 50 many times dally,
| for that L" intent" do not know how that
Crusade" is going on; for his iondness ior
| controversy, coupled with his lncapaclty-
amounting, nearly, to mental imbeclllty-has
| made 1t necessary to withdraw him from the
scene But England Is employing, IN her turn,
| a machinery more complicated, potent, ana IL
| Primate Cullen say accurately, more carnal, Tor
| the conversion OF Ireland. English EPlScopa
| llans. through the instrumontahty OF mighty
| staff of missionaries readers and schoolmasters,
| superintenced by the Irish clergy-and Ulster
| and Scottish Presbyterans, with similar agen-
| cy-have concentrated their efforts upon Come
mara Erris, Tyrrawley, Kerry, and other CeItlc
| regions and as many OF the agents are lnSn
speaking converts not few oil them priests anu
| as a literary and Industrial education IS pIoAI-
| nent part of the system, the unmpeschaOle tes'
| tmony of visitant Bishops, enlightened travel
ers and intelligent inspectors, records the WIN

| Of their fathers
But the Catholic Defense Association has
come in to the rescue. Committee OF the
clerical members has been appointed with I'M
limited command Of funds, to counteract the
anostacy: and Christian Brothers and Sisters OF
Charity will be spread over the field OF warfare,
