Desperation Of Radicaiism.

In all the expressions Of the impeach-
ers through the arguments on the floor
of Congress, as well as through the chan
mel of the press, we find but a single
reason for deposing the President All
the rest it is admitted is merely pretext,
technical, and for forms sake. The one
grand reason is the necessities of the
Radical party. What hope is there for
the preservation of republican liberty
when all the checks and balances Of the
Constitution are thus to be disregsrded
for party purposes1 A Washington cor
respondent of the Anti SlarsryStand
exclaims as follows: Fn
Not one Republican Senator, in my
opinion, has The moral courage to refuse
TO convict, If the evidence will justify 9
conviction. Those Senators have been
driven into corner BY the resolute de
termination Of the Radical element o
the nation, where they cannot do other
wise than act with courage. Their politi
cal life now depends upon a conviction
and even political towards will sho=

CHARITY SERMON.-We are informed that o
charity sermon will be preached soon in st.
Joscph's Church in aid of the funds of it's Con-
ference of the Society of ST. Vincent do Paul.
Those connected with this association, avcrse
to publicity, acting on the principle "Iet not
thy left hand know what thy right hand
doeth," are accustomed to look for>the contri-
buttons necessary to sustain their plans of
benefieenco to their members exclusively.
They are now, by the extraordinary pressure
upon their sympathy, compelled reluctantly to
take some pubhc~step to replensh their cx-
haustcI c1tfers. From the dcplorable stagna-
ton ofh,usncss and the prevailing destitntion,
this unfrequent appeal from this source will,
: We trust, be favorably responded to by those
outside the Society. We're we at liberty to
give statistics of their operations, the amount
of good accomplished, and their seIfsacrifcing
lahors, we afc~snrc 4 most generous co-opera-

We have received a paper from Dover,
N. H., containing an article to which our
notice specially called.:The author is
mistaken ia the identity of name-the very
important addenda, Catholic Messenger, be-
ing wanting in his hebdomadal. Now, we
have not the least objection to his adding
that to his Star, provided it conforms to
Catholic faith and practice, which, however,
we doubt his ability to do sincerely, while
he adheres to a rule that clevates human
opinion above infallible verity.~ AS to the
impertinence implied in his caption, we
have only to say that the ignorance betrayed
is only eqnaled- by its presumption If he
will turn to the fifth column of his own
sheet: he will finth himself properly placed.
'ST'here is not half the spirituality among
us that There was thirty years ago" judy
ing from the specimen before us, we would
say, that instead of "half" the spirituality,
there is scarcely vestige remaining.
