The Nashville Banner gives thrilling
account Of an accident which befel a
lovely girl in that city. She was appar-
emily the possessor Of a "great wealth of
golden hair" but while standing on the
sidewalk, chatting with some companions,
this "golden hair" attracted the attention
of hungry mule which was harnessed
to a fruit-wagon near by The vicious
creature caught the beautiful tresses be-
tween his teeth and gave them such a
jerk as pulled them entirely out of her
head The unfortunate girl was in a
distressed condition, but all attempts to
rescue the precious article from the
wicked animal were in vain-he was re-
solved to chew the choice morsel to his
hearts content. The young lady was
conveyed home in a hack, and, at the
last accounts, hopes were entertained OF
her recovery.

Dr.. BELLOws AND THE IRISH PEIEs1s-
The Rev. blower, after writing series of let
tiers from Europe, in which he dealt largely in
SANDERS against the church generally, has sent
n communication to the London Times, in which
he particularly traduces the Irish priesthood.
A French paper thus alludes to this last per-
Torrance:
The Rev. w. Bellows has published, in the
London Times, q letter on the Irish in America.
The reputation of the Rev. Doctor, and the
wide circulation of the Times; have given to
this letter Importance it byno means merits.
The English doctor, under the influence of his
anti-Catholic prejudices, presents picture OF
priests which is anything but true. He states
that Irish priests exercise over their hocks an
| absolute influence even on political questions
that elections are discussed from the pnlpits,
and the lESh people vote according to The die
tation of thcir.elergy. This is utterly false,
especially as.regards the United States The
people esteem and revere their priest, because
he is worthyfof respect and veneration but
the Rev. doctor knows full well that the Cath
Ollie Church III America does not mingle in
politics SO long, at least, as the government
abst2ins from interfering with the liberty of
worship, which is the case at the present time.
DR.. Bellows gratuitously calumniates the
Catholic clergy. He should have taken eoun-
sci of his confreres in the United States. They
would have informed him that the great influ-
enee of the CATHOLIC clergy and the universal
respect which is everywhere paid to them,
owing, in great measure, to the fact that they
| Invariably keep aIOoI from POLITICAL a8ltatl0nS.
During the war Catholic priests delivered no
harangues to arouse public enthusiasm. So
universally did they abstain from playing the
political 1emagogue, that they were almost de-
nounced as rebels, while to-day their prudent
reserve is a subject of universal applause.
Whether q Democrat or Republican concerned
them but little; they only sought to save
souls, to train up children on Christian prin-
ciples, to give counsel and assistance to all who
approached them, and, like their Divine Mas
ter, spend their lives in doing good.
hn lIsI Innfpr hnu r.ttGf alrat, fha Il
he has taken the Protestant temple for Cath
Ole church. In such a temple religion, in
point of fact, is altogether political and the
reverend ministers seem never to become tired
i'll discussing the most arduous and complicated
questions, not of grace, but of political admin
istiation. These are your political parsons;
men like Drs. Cheever and Henry Ward
