The Late steamboat Disaster.

hundreds OF families are mourning over the un-
timely death of those who were near and dear to
them, ana the whole country is in deep sympathy
with the sufferers. Such an event startles the
most volatile and reckless into serious thought
upon eternity and its awful realities. There Il
in this calamity warning to all to keen their
lamps trimmed and burning, knowing not the
hour when the summons of death may come.
There is O moral lesson of another kind to be
learned by the managers Of steamboats, and the
travelling public. For they are both alike Gull
pable for this disaster. 1t does not appear that
any vigorous or well-directed efforts were made
by the passengers on board to stop the racing
and compel the reckless officers to attend to the
safety Of the passengers. Any ten determined
men could have accomplished this result, and
saved the lives of the dead. Steamboat owners
VIA learn from this disaster that it will notpay to
hazard the lives Of passengers in reckless com
Peuuon Tor gain They will learn, also, that it
10 not saie or profitable to put their property or
tne hves OF travellers under the control of men
Witnout nonor or conscience, who are ready to
gamble with such fearful stake as the homes
ana the happiness OF families, and the lives Of
men and women. 1t should also teach .hor, 49,

and prepare them for everything reckless and
desperate.
The coroners inquest has not yet closed its
sitting, and we hope that all the facts will be
fully and faithfully elected and that strict and
even-handed justice will be melted out to those
that are responsible for this horrible affair. We
see that bill, drawn with great care, has been
introduced into the United States Senate, bearing
on this subject We hope 1t will pass. Mean

60 Is He a Catholic .o

We with pleasure quote the following extracts
from an editorial in the Baltimore Sun of Wednes-
day:
as HE CATHOLIC PA very fair question
for any man to put-under some circumstances
For instance, if were about to vote man
into the priesthood" he would like to be in
formed on that point. If he were about to choose
candidate for the scarlet hat" he would be
likely to ask sucha question. And whenever the
Pope is elected by universal suffrage, it is to be
presumed that all interested in the selection of an
''ayailabe nominee" will prudently inquire as
he Catholic % But the idea of such a question
being put with respect to General Scott is on a
par with general inquiry in the conclave of car
dinas whether candidate for the Pontifcate is
q good soldier.
Gen. Scott has been one Of the most successful
soldiers of his age. He conducted some of the
most critical of the issues of war with Great Bri.
tain, and achieved, by his skill, intrepidty, ex-
perience, and cool observation, series of victo-
ries, which not only BUNDLED the power of Eng
land upon this continent, but added new and un-
fading lustre to the rising glory of our military
fame. In the war with Mexico, the same skill,
discretion and infexibility Of purpose, uumpaired
by long season Of "inglorious ease,' were again
put in requisition, and with characteristic re-
suit. Step by step, hating at no obstacle, and
never making false move, inexorable as Time
ITSELF he made one triumphant Marcia success
sion of victories from Vera Cruz to the halls of
the Montezumas; and thus closed with the
most brilliant success war which had been
opened under kindred auspices by the gallant
Taylor. The two campaigns were worthy of
each other, and the respective leaders of each
worthy alike Of that renown which the republic
has cheerfully accorded them. The disparage-
ment Of antagonism in political campaign can
never dim the lustre of their achievements.
Now for the question" Is Gen. Scott a Catho-
her Suppose he is, what then! He won the
honors OF two wars-in one against Protestant,
and In the other against Catholic country
Protestant or Catholic, be he what he NAV.
with such credentials as these, there is no room
left to question his thorough devotion to his own
country, and that ought to satisfy every Ameri-
can citizen, aside from all frivolous questions
about "faith and practice" in mans religion,
