From the warehouse Of Messrs W. 4 T. the

tholomews.

How is Il that we hear Of no preparations being
made by the Sag NIGHTS for the celebration of the
anniversary of the Massacre Of 81. Bartholomew,
which occurs on the cath Of August
On that day, in the year 1872, was perpetrated
that horrible massacre Of the Huguenots by which,
at one fell sweep Of assassination, il was hoped to
quench the Protestant faith in the blood Of all the
chief families that professed II in France Accord
ing TO the Duke Of Sully, the plot resulted in the
butchcry Of serenity thousand pcrsons-a deed
which has been well branded as the greatest crime
Of the Christian era. Yet tho artillery Of the
Pope's castle Of the Holy Angel Numbered its
volley in honor Of the news and the Pope sang
joyful te denn ioHd,wu,s, proclaimed jubilee, and
struck a medal in honor Of the event
Such are the historical facts How is il, then,
we ask again. that the Jesuits, the Sag NIGHTS, the
Unionists Of Harmony Hail. and the numerous
aposotes from the Protestant faith in Office in this
city, have made no preparations TO celebrate the
anniversary Of the Massacre Of 81. Bartholomew,
