The PRovERBIAL KILKENNY CATs.-An
amusing story assigns the fight of the
Kilkenny cats to the time of William III,
when the soldiers stationed at Kilkenny
are said to have found their most favorite
diversion in witnessing cat fights. 1t was
their custom to bring the belligerent cats
into action on tight rope, to which the
animals were securely tied by their tails
Thus placed on the strained cable, face to
face, the Infatuated creatures used to spring
upon each other and fight with indescribable
ferocity. When the weaker cat slipped from
the embrace of his adversary he hung by
his tail, screechng and writhing i'm rage
and agony, until he managed to recover an
insecure footing on the rope, when the
contest was renewed, to the delight of it's
critical and humane spectators. After this
elevating pastime had been in vogue for a
considerable time, it was prohibited by a
military order, issued ut the request of the
principal inhabitants of Kilkenny, where,
in the deartl of cats soccasioned by sport
$50 largely destructive of feline life, the
mice were verifying with unpleasant force
the truth of familiar adage. But when
the order for the dscontinuance of the cat
fights had been promulgated, the author-
ties found much difficulty in enforcing
obedience to it. Cats still continued to
disappear from Kilkenny town, and it was
well known that they were struggled into
the garrison to afford the soldiers brutaliz-
ing diversion. Such was the state of the
case when information reached the COM
handing officer that a cat fight was going
on in anout- Of the way room of the barrack,
and an officer was forthwith dispatched to
put an end to the fight and arrest the
soldiers thus guilty of characterization.
But before the officer and men sent on this
duty could break into the room, the spec
tators of the fight had received warning of
their danger. The tramp of the intruding
party was audible on the staircase to the

died at his residence, in Linesville, diocese
of Erie. He had been suffering long from
consumption, yet he seemed unwilling to
abandon any of his pastoral duties; and,
though scarcely able to stand, for months
before his death, he was to be found assidu-
ously ministering at the altar, hearing
confessions, etc. Rev. Father Snively was
born in Franklin county, Pa, of Protestant
parents; and having pursued his studies at
Mercersburg, he intended becoming a
Lutheran preacher. However, yielding to
the grace of God, which suggested to him
a holier course, he studied the doctrines of
the holy Catholic Church, and was received
a member into her fold. He subsequently
visited France and pursued q course of
ecclesiastical studies under the Jesuit
Fathers. Having returned to America and
exhibiting unmistakable evidences OF a
priestly vocation, he was, about six years
ago, elevated to the holy dignity Of the
priesthood by the late Right Rev. Bishop
Young. From that time till the hour of
his death, he labored most zealously in diff
ferent parts of the diocese; first in the
Oil Regions, then in jefferson county and
Crawford county, building churches and
selecting eligible sites for church purposes,
and, in q word, edifying, by word and
example, all who knew him.

"GRowTH OF RoMANIsM IN GREAT BRIT
AIN. such is the caption of a circular
recently issued by the Scottish Reformation
Society. After good deal of lugubrious
twaddle, the document closes with the fol-
lowing lamentation
Romanism has been making rapid strides
in this country, especially since the re-
establishment of the Romsh hierarchy,
whereby the whole machinery of the Church
of Rome and it's canon law are welded
against the great principles of the reform
alton. Romish priests are now endowed,
in connection with the army, navy, prisons,
reformatory and industrial institutions, and
common schOols-besidcs the maintenance
of n college at Maynootll, and chaplains in
connection with the various public institu-
tions in Ireland. 1t has been estimated
that upward of n thousand pounds day
is paid out of the British. treasury for the
promotion of Romanism. inconsistencies, in
defiance of the law, are established, and
converts multiplied throughout the
country. Every session Of Parliament, for
many years; has brought fresh demands
and produced new concessions, until at last
the Professionalism of the throne itself, and
thereby the liberties of the nation, are
threatened with subversion.

presence of the Minister of War, General
kanzler, the King of Naples, and his
brother and uncle, and the Infant of Spain,
Don Alfonso, who has just enrolled himself
under the banners of st. Peter, as private
in the Zouaves. On the present occasion,
were those forming the Brigade Zappi,
being the Legion, the Swiss, and the Italian
line, with n squadron of dragons and the
field battery. 1t was q beautiful and most
picturesque spectacle, as q military ma

affairs of its gods to eternal hatred to

NJ. de Charette was accompanied on his
late return by two hundred recruits for the
Zouaves. Two entire companies are fur

General kanzler has received from his
native State of Baden the magnificent offer
of two thousand young German recruits, to
be supported by the Catholics of Bruchsal,
Fribourg, and the Black Forest villages.

THE BODIES OF THE MANCHESTER MAR
TYRs.--The Manchester correspondent of
the Irishman, under date of July 31st,
makes this strange statement regarding the
removal of the bodies of the Manchester
martyrs from the original place of sepnl-
ture to another one:
beg leave to inform the friends of Ire
land, at home and abroad, that the bodies
of the three Fenian martyrs were exhumed
and removed from the old prison, in which
they were executed, to- the new prison in
rear of the Assize Court, where they were
tried. In spite of all the secrecy of the au-
thorities it has got to light that the bodies
of Allen, Larkin and O'Brien were removed
from where they were buried. And what is
more, that although they were nine months
buried, in spite of quick-lime and other de-
structive matter thrown on them, their
bodies were as sound and their features as
perfect as on the day of their death. This
I have from an Engishman who served
three months in both prisons, for stealing
dog, and who the prison officers ordered to
help in the removal of the remains of the
three martyrs. The three bodies were
placed on a porter's hurry, which was en-
ployed in the removal of stores, covered
with a sheet, and a relay of police told off to
Keep it in sight from one prison to another,
although none of them knew what the Hurry
contained, nor has Il single English paper
announceda word about it. =
The foregoing is authentic, as 1 have it
from two different sources-the one given
above, and the other from a policeman VINO
was witness to the second interment.

The Holy FATnER.-The> Pope, when
ever he appears in public, is dressed in
white. He has, of late, taken great deal
more out door exercise than formerly.
About one hundred persons daily solicit atl.
diences from him. AT these audiences, to
which often persons half crazy with
religious excitement gain access, it is very
seldom that the Pope, even under the
greatest provocation, loses his temper.
Sometimes, when a visitor proves too
troublesome, Plus IN rings the bell, and
says to the camcicre who enters the room,
"Take this man into the fresh air. He is
unwell." The Pope speaks no German,
excellent Latin and Spanish, French with a
strong Italian accent, which is by no means
unpleasant in lis rich, sonorous voice, and
very pure Itali;n, while some of his cardi-
nails even speak the mother tongue with a
strong local accent. Cardinal Hohenlohe is
one Of the mel whom His Holiness likes
best. Strange % say, all the sisters and
other relatives Of that Cardinal are Pro-
testants.

TO-DAY AND TOMORROW.

A rosebud blossomed in my bower,
A bird sang in my garden;
The rose bud was its fairest flower,
The bird its gentlest warden.
And child behind the linden tree
Sang, "Think no more of sorrow,
But let rs smile and sing to-day,
For He must weep tomorrow.
asked the bird, ';Oh, did st thou hear
The song that she would sing thee!
And can it be that thou should It fear
What the next morn would bring. thee,?''
He answered with triumph ant strain,
Saying, 81 know not sorrow;
But L must sing my best to-day,
For L may die tomorrow"
l asked the rose, sob, tell me, sweet,
In thy first beauty's dawning,
Thou can'st not fear, from this retreat,
becoming of the morning?"
She flung her fragrant leaves apart,
The lovlier for her sorrow,
Saying, "Yet L must bloom to-day,
For [ may droop tomorrow"
1 said, THE bloom upon my cheek
Is f1eeting as the roses;
Ny voice no more shall sing or speak
When dust in dust reposes.
And from these soulIess monitors
One lesson L may borrow
That we should sing and smile to-day,
For We may weep Tomorrow

clad that ever made the distance without a
convoy. She was in several gales, but rode
them all out finely.
