Our town, at other times SO peaceable

entertainment, the first of the kind that
ever took place here. was complete

Considering that st. Joseph's School is
yet In its infancy, having only Il few wears,
standing, we must confess that this institu
ton Is III fair way of progress. 1t num-
bers now about one hundred pupils, both
Doys-and girls. Mr.. Colbert has charge of
the male, and Mrs. Doriocourt of the female
department. The whole is under the SUI
peryislon of Father Bogaerts, pastor of ST
Joseph's Church.
thorough examination of the various
branches OF study was held. to all of which
the pupils of both departments answered in
manner which reflected great credit both
on the pupils aud their Instructors
The Catholics of Gretna can boast of
having good Catholic school in their
midst, which cannot but exercise a most
beneficial sint1uence onz@the future OF the
newly created congregation. Like all other
institutions of the same kind, which have
Tor their object the instruction and moral
lzatlon of youth, it has to contend with
many and serious difficulties but the per
sseveilng efforts of the directors of the
school will, we hope, triumph over all |
and we believe the time is near at hand
when the Catholics of Gretna will be
ashamed to send their children to any other
but to st. JOseph's school.
If we except the parents, who are partic-
nlarly interested in witnessing the prof.
cheney of THEN children, examinations are
often tedious to tn, mere looker-on.. But

to Judge from the interest which was man.

MIR. SrtRGEoN AND THE BISHOP OF Ok.
FoRD.-Nlf. SpurgeOn, it seems, does no,
sympath &c with the Church party in its en-
deavor to perpetuate the monstrosity of its
rule in Ireland. This difference does NOT
ARISE from a sense of injnstice to the Irisl,
people, but because it interferes with a
theory OF the Rev. Sturgeon. DR.. WILDER
force, III his place in the House of Lords,
and in pastoral to his diocese took occa-
sion to call the Reverend gentleman to &C
count, charging him. with desire I" to pro
mote Popery in Ireland" Spurgeon did not
submit to the attack meekly. The Boa
nerges of the Baptist Tabernacle has at
tackled the Bishop vigorously, in which he
shows up his special pleading, and uses the
oratorical power, for which he has some
fame, in demolishing the fallacies of the
Right Rev. Bishop by the grace of Victoria.
Surgeons logic leaves not a vestige of
justification for the rule of the Church in
Ireland. In reply to some of the Bishop's
weak arguments, a disciple Of the Taber-
nacle naan, writing in the London Christian
World, says:
ME-. Sturgeon is q man who fancies tha
justice, whether in Ireland or in England.
cannot injure the cause of God. Surely. il
cannot he maintained by any person Of
ordinary candOr and intelligence that Mr.
Sturgeon would lend himself to a course of
policy to promote Popery in Ireland, or to
turn Great Britain into a sacrilegious, apos-
tate, or goddess nation. He looks at facts
and scorns to be made the slave of words
The other day, at Stowmarket, he applied
his common sense with striking effect to
the theory that a State Church makes n ma
ton religious. "Then," he said. I" this
nation was goddess nation already, for the
colonies, the major part of the population
ruled by the Queen, hal no national reli-
Sion. He asked were the United States n

to be proud of it. The Americans maintain |
