deavor 70 diminish the majesty Of the Church.
In this act Of recommendation, we have a
positive proof Of the temporal power Of the
PoPe,-a proof from the highest authority in
the Church Of Rome. Il Is maxim Of Ca
tholicsim, tha', Rome never changes and the
Pope b inialliable.' II therefore, the Pope
does not now possess the power Of absOlving
bis subjects from an oath Of civil allegiance,
then Rome changes, and the Pope is infalliabIe.
II we are falsely charging this doctrine upon
the Catholic Church, IS our opponents say we
are, how is itthat all the Catholic Journals Of
this county, contend so earnestly for the doe
:rine. Do Protestanls know more about Ca
tholicism than the teachers in that Church
We say the doctrine is maintained by the Cath
ole Church, andit cannot be successfully De.
MED; and If Catholicism ever gains an i'm.
mense numerical majority in this country We
will not longbe left in doubt on this subject.
This doctrine was maintained By Dauel o.
COnnen, so late as l84S. In speech deliver.
ed in that year, he says:
i declare my most unequivocal submission
to the head Of the church, and TO the hierarch,
in its different orders. They, (the Bishops,

Truth, Love. Purity and Fidelity"
BY NJ. @ BAXTER.

II was a summers eve, and the sun was
half hid behind the tree-tops in the western
horizon. seated myself at the root Of tall,
sturdy oak, and listened to the little warblers
that percEed themselves above me, and car
roed forth their evening songs, The evening
was beautiful, and the place where sat was
quiet, sequestered spot. A few PAGES TO my
right a little rivulet flowed along its messy bed,
producing gurgling sound, as it danced over
the pebbles, seemingly trying to vie with the
tiny songsters that poured forth their sweetest
notes from the thick foliage of the oak under
which l was reclining. Nature around me
seemed clothed in her richest robes, and l sat
for long time thinking of the goodness of
God to man, in clothing the landscape with
beauty, and bedecking the green fields with
flowers of every hue,' so that wherever his
gaze was turned, he might behold with delight
the beauties of creation, and recognize in ma
ture the hand OF natures God. As sat thus
musing, my attention was arrested by rust.
ling noise proceeding from small cluster Of
bushes near by; and as looked up to see
what was moving near, | beheld group of
graceful forms standing before me clad in rich
apparel and earnestly looking towards me.-
The name OF each was written upon the girdle
that encircled his or her waist, and their names
were Truth, Love, Purity and Fidelity. As
they saw me look towards them, a friendly
smile lit up the countenance Of each. Truth
then stepped forward, holding mirror in one
hand and a sword in the other, Ihave come,
said she, with my companions to teach you
how to live SO that you may fll the station
which your Creator has designed you should
occupy in life, and so that you may finally be
permitted to dwell with us forever in our home
above. Take this sword in your hand and
with it battle for the right. Keep it ever
drawn against error and falsehood, and let it
not be sheaIhed at your side until you have
conquered and presented yourself at the gate
of our dwelling for entrance
Love then stepped forward and handed me a
small roll of parchment upon which vas writ
ten, DO unto others as you would have others
do unto you Take this, said he, and copy
it upon the tablet of your heart. If this mot
TO we're deeply engraved upon every heart then
would the dark waves Of vice be turned into
rivers of peace, and happiness would spread
her garlands in the pathway of, every son and
daughter of Adam The millenial sun would
then rise and food the hills and valleys Of
earth with its glorious rays; and there would
be no dark spot where vice might hide to work
destruction among The sons of men,

away the pan.' l miss the sound of these
little feet upon the stairs. miss the little

The COdf Iheries~ How the People of St.
ts- Johns do Business

From New Fouudbud Letter by Bayard Tay or. |
The fsherman's wives were employed in
spreading out the flakes of the fish which had
been staked together! during the night, with the
skins uppermost to protect them from moist
ure. They informed US that the season was
unusually good this year, but as the price of
the fish was low they would gain but little by
their abundance. Last year, they said; fish
had sold at Is and l6 shillings the quintal (l20
bs., but this year the price has gone down to
q and 13 shillings. This value, let me here
explain, is not so much regulated by the de
mand in foreign markets as by the will Of the
merchants OF St Johns, who not only fix the
price of the fish they buy but of the goods they
sell to the fishermen. They thus gain in both
ways, and fatten rapidly on the tolls and hard
ships of the most honest and simple hearted
race in the world, It's their policy to keep
the fishermen always in debt 10 them, and the
produce Of the fishing season is often mortga-
ged to them in advance. tits an actual fact that
those poor fishermen are obliged to pay for
their -four. groceries and provisions, from so
to 100 per cent. more. than the rich and inde-
pendent residents of ST. Johns, 1t is no won
der therefore that the merchants anass large
furtunes in the course Of eight or ten years,
while their virtual serfs remain as poor and as
ignorant as their fathers before them. These
things have been mentioned to me by more
than one of the intelligent citizens of st.
Johns, and confirmed by all of the fishermen
with whom conversed on the subject Sew
eral of the latter said to me, 'Ah, Sir, if your
people had the management Of things here, it
would be better for u.s. This monopolizing spir-
it of gain is the curse not only of st. job na,
but of Newfoundland. 1t is the spirit which
resists all progress, all improvements for the
general good which seem to threatens the over
throw of its unjust advantages which has
made Newfoundland at the present day, three
hundred and fifty years after its discovery by
Sebastian Cabot an almost unknown wilder
naus, in order that no other branch of industry
may be developed but that upon which it
prays. .ss, adt
The fishermen in some cases deliver their
fish to the merchants, cured in others the
latter purchase the yield as it comes from the
boats, and have the drying done on their own
flakes. The liyers are usually sold separately
to those merchants who carry on the manufac-
ture Of oil. Mr.. Archibald, wEo has gone
largely into this business. has arranged ma
chlnery for brushing the liVers and steaming
them, to extract the oil, instead of the old
practice of boiling, which often imparts an un-
pleasans flavor to the oil. By the new process
it is produced in few minutes, and is perfect
