Rev. Morgan Dix, of Trinity
church, New York, says the power
Of Professionalism as a system is
broken. This implies, according TO
him, not that Professionalism is a
failure, considered in respect to its
positive elements, but in its rela-
lions to Catholicism.

Mr.. EDITOR: noticed in the issue of
the Daily Republican, Of the 9Th inst, a
structure on the City Council of this city.
Truth is mighty and will prevail; and if
the correspondent X Y X had kept that
trite maxim in view, he certainly would
not have been guilty. of penning so many
falsehoods in SO small space, to wit:
Lie the first. That the city is borrowing
money at one and half per cent. Sc
cond. That the city isissuing illegal
scrip and bills of credit. Third, That
the City Council are burdening the oiti-
zens with taxation for purely political
purposes. The truth: A public meeting
OF taxpayers, called without regard to
political opinion, authorized the City
Council to erect suitable buildings for
the purpose Of holding State Agricul-
tural and Mechanical Fair, the cost to be
left to the discretion of the City Coun-
Gil. A loan was effected for one year, of
~. OOO. at one per cent, to carry out the
object of the Taxpayers. The city has
issued paper currency by permission
granted by Act Of the Legislature. The
City Council has made no issue, directly
or indirectly. regarding the political sta
tus OF any person or persons, in framing
a tax bill, or for any other purpose. The
City Council is about as responsible for
the Robinson letter, before the State
Agricultural Society, rs X X X is for the
truth! ONE WHO KNOWS.

The CONFEDERATE WIDOWS HOME. =
The Charleston Courier contains an ap-
peal in behalf Of this noble charity. We
hope it may be needed and generously
responded to. The whole number of
persons occupying the home is ninety
one. The appeal closes thus:
'.And now another thing. Citizens Of
Carolina, this institution belongs to you,
Your sympathy and generosity bade it
rise, and have given it success. Your
hands must continue to sustain it, or it
fails. Your sisters have relied upon your
ever fresh memory Of the dead, and con-
sideration of the living, to undertake in
creased burtliens OF care and cost in the
Widows Home. We do not ask you to
give with increased iberelity to enable
them to bear the burthens. We know
you will give. To urge would be an i'm
pertinence. But we do ask you to give
in q different way. Let not these ladies
be burthened also with the care and labor
of q fair or bazaar. Lift this sheltering
institution out Of companionship even
with other commendable charities, as
much as it is above them in the sacred
ness of its memories, and the tenderness
of the heart-chords which it touches.
'Let there be no need of public soli-
citation. Let groups be formed, who
will agree to make up among themselves
S1OO, or $500. or 81 900, each giving nc
cording to his ability. 1t can he done
without burthening any. Doing this
quietly, efficiently. idelicately, you will
say to our sistera'of the Home Associa-
tion,' the canse is ours, as we'll Be it
yours to preside over, control and cheer
this household of our wards!' he it ours
to relieve you, Of solicitude as to the
means by which it is to be sustained
'This is the feeling of all. Why may
it not find Immediate expression?"
