The Ursuline Convent.

In another column will be found an
advertisement of this well-known institu-
tion, embodying all the information gener-
ally desirable to parents in relation to such
establishments. Everybody knows the
locality and something Of the history OF
this celebrated house. 1t is one of the
landmarks in the chronicles of Louisiana.
1t is link connecting the present with the
far past, not only as monument of masonry
and architecture, but as an idea of home.
a bond of love and social intercourse.
For century gone by the daughters of
Louisiana have looked upon it's sacred walls
as the natural shelter Of their girlish days
and the treasury from whence their stores of
science were to be drawn. There intima-
cies were formed which through after years
bound together in ties of common sympa-
thy, remote sections of the State, and fam
lilies which might otherwise have been
strangers to each other. Many of the most
venerable ladies in our midst can only
associate with girlish memories the image
of an institution the history of which runs
far back into the days when the flag of
France or Spain claimed dominion over the
waters of the Mississippi.
1t is hard TO conceive of spot more
retired, more quiet and more lovely, where
the storm of life is shut out more effectually
that science may the better make it's pre-
cepts heard. The peculiar advantages here
enjoyed fer the acquisition Of French, tiae
refining influence of the ladies constituting
thenoble order of the Ursulines, the secluded
and yet convenient proximity CT the loca-
ton, give this institution claims to the
attention of parents which are worthy of
examination.

GLYNN & WINTZ's SToEE.-"N No. 9 Camp
street." has become one of the most popular
phrases of the day. Ladies and gentlemen I'M
failingly go there, for the reason that they are
suited to the minutest degree both in fit, style
and elegance of material. People are thus
pleased--they impart the source of their gra-
LITIGATION to others, and SO 9" No. 9 Camp
street, has become a synonym for all that is
refined and stylish in the important articles of

establishment is reaping rich harvest in the
constant flow of customers. A large and va

wise to be found here, and sold on the most
accommodating terns. See advertisement in
another part of the paper.

The Lecture.

1t Is with great satisfaction that we an
nounce the lecture to be given tomorrow,
monday, 26th inst.,) at o'clock r. NJ, at
St. Alphonsus' Hall, under the auspices of
the Young Mems Catholic Union. This is
beginning. to look like work. The lecture
is weapon of the day, and most effective
one. In many of the greatest Universities
instruction is impaired by lectures only,
without any interrogation of pupils or re-
Spouse on their part. In social life, the
public is invited to attend lectures for
amusement, but frequently find them
source of much instruction and information.
The Catholic cause affords peculiarly
fertile field for the lecturer. Without even
touching on questions of faith or dogma, he
can find enough to employ his best abilities
IN the collateral issues that are SO persist
emily attempted to be foisted upon the
question. History, philosophy, national
policy, all come most prominently into the
contest, as at present waged, involving
alike falsifications of facts and errors in
logic of the gravest Importance.
The relation of the church to secular gov
eminent; the line of demarcation between
the things which are of Caesar and those
which are not; the supposed afinities of
Catholicity with despotism, with monarchy,
with Republicanism, even with revolution;
its alleged antagonism with education, free
dom and progress; the responsibility to
which it is held for the temporal misfor-
tunes and decadence of Spain and other ma
tons; the comparison drawn between the
prosperity of certain Protestant countries
and that of some Cathlic countries,
as test of the true faith all these, and
many other topics, form an inexhausti-
BILE supply of subjects for lectures at once
entertaining and highly useful.
On the present occasion the Young Mems
Catholic Union has been fortunate enough
to secure the services of Rev. Father Corne-
Illus Moynihan in the cause. Essentially o
practical man himself, he is the very one to
handle the subject. selected fol. the occasion,
that is the organization of their own assoei-
alton, and to give many hints of a proita-
BILE character, if reduced to practice. His
well-knOwn style of composition and deliv-
cry is enough to satisfy the public that they
will be we'll entertained, whatever be the
subject. We bespeak for this first essay an
audience which shall unequivocally show
both hearty sympathy with the design
thus inaugurated, and lively appreciation
of the treat which may be expected.

THE CATHEDRAL CHURCH OF LUBEcK.-The
Cathedral Church, built in 1170-1341, has many
monuments of Lubbock families, and there are
two statues of the Virgin, one of pottery, the
follows:
Two men, one stonecutter, the other pot
ter, were accused of murder, and the evidence
was such, it was not possible to decide which
was the guilty one. It was proposed by the
Judge that each should make statue of the
Virgin, aud when finished, the one decided to
have the best should bejudged innocent, and
the other suffer death for the murder When
finished, they were declared equally good, and
both were freed from punishment.
In the centre of this church hangs an i'm
mense wooden crucix. The carvings are all
beautiful, of rich dark oak, and profusely
scattered over the whole building, pu1pits and
screen-work being finished in this way Por-
traits of the pastors of the church and mag
mates of the city ornament the pillars There
is also here q curious clock. On the end of the
hour hand is little clock, which keeps exact
time with the large one. There were in the
fourteenth century many quaint time-keepers
made. The strange devices occupied the inge-
NOUS mechanic, and served for princely gifts
from one sovereign to another.
