CONTAMINATION. - What on earth is
Germany? Is it Austria or Prussia, or
both mbined ? Austrians are Germans,
and Prussians are Germans, and yet there
are Austrians who are not Germans, and
Prussians who are almost French. When
we look Mt our old map of Germany we are
at loss to account for what is going on
to day and if we forget tho events of the
past few years, we exclaim, Why is Prus-
sin thoro Pr Just so in Italy. Boundaries
and landmarks have been changed and
altered, and instead of going through a
duchy or princedom, you travel through
one kingdom. Englishmen are rather in
favor of this thing when practiced abroad.
Their own history, too, points out the same
moral IF it may be called II m0raD of con
quest. We might parody the song of the
''fwelvc little Iiiggcrs," by thG'right Saxon
kings, under the heptarchy. BY degrees
they were all ss&Ii"Ucd up-but their sue
cessors came 10 no geuIi. The men who
swallowed up The small fry, were III turn
devoured by the Danes, WHO, inGtiug
with the Saxons, were in the course oi his
tory polished off by the NarmanS. How
truly does History repeat Itself! Italy and
Germany are only nov going through the
same process that England experienced
almost Il thousand years ago. Is England
any the better for it 7 Who n-sayY But
this we can say, that neither Italy nor Ger
many seem to have improved by the pro
cess. In Prussia there seems to be a good
feeling towards Rome While in Catholic
Austria the opposite sentiment seems to
possess the Governmental RtrerSe.

Z The pretenee of "a universal toleratlon OF
erroH leads naturally to u hideous lntoler.-
encS of the truth. Men who arc laught
that al creeds are doubtful cannot, put ieel

of nersonal offence to n measure of active
repression tberesis no great distance 90
the pagan poly theism, admired by Elppon,'
amiably admitted any number OF ifesi,
idols from all nations, but tortured ana
massacred the Christians; SO also tne ah-
haupy youth, BLAND of Berlin, believing
in nothing himself, grew to imagine BELIEF
in other men to be q mockery ana TO
deserve determination. According to the
declaration he calmly made to the Ifussla1
police last week, this lad of nineteen Dau
gone on from Lutheranism to lnhueliIy,
and having satisfied himself by mature
reflection that professions of faith are
taccursed prtiudices," he resolved to draw
public attention to his discovery by
numbering pastor in the large Protestant
church, OF cathedral, at Berlin. On SUNDAY,
the Sth, when Mr.. Heinrich, the minister,
standing at the communion table, was
beginning to say the Belief according to
the Lutheran form, young BLAND raised a
pistol, and shouting, '4ou he" nred.
Happily, though within ten feet of ms IN
tended-victim, the assassin missed ms ann,
and was arrested without having Wounaed
any one. The ball had only grazed the
not to prevent him singing on to the end
of the service. But frightful indeed are
the disclosures which Biiand's attempted
crime has led the Times correspondent ut
Berlin to make respecting the state OF
religion in Germany. If any good men
have been inclined to think Papaf Allocu-
tons too severe, and to retain admiration
for a "Teutonic element" i'll spiritual
things, their eyes will now at last be- surely
opened. No one, it is stated, who knows
modern Germany, "wil call it n Christian
land. either in the sense Rome gives to the
term OF, IN the meaning Luther attached to
it.n Catholicism exists indeed "amongst
women and in tho lower classes" but, on
the other hand, "the majority of the
! educated, in their insidious march towards
rationalism, have advanced beyond ac-
knowledging the necessity of any creed.
Not content with rejecting the Bible,
whose doctrines they regard as entirely ex-
ploded by the moral, historical, and
| scientific criticisms of the day, they have
begun to doubt whether any teaching on
transcendental subjects can be required to
promote virtue.u The more advanced
philosophers ago the length of questioning
| the possibility of Gods interfering
with the self-supporting machinery of
the world, and look upon prayer as a
Pagan rite, and sometimes become so
irrational as to consider the very existence
| of G cd as problematical." Bossuet's
Variations of Professionalism are quite
thrown into the shade by this mature de-
! velopment of the Teutonic reason.--1abtet.

THE PORE AND THE JEsUlTs.--How often
has it been dinned into our ears that the
iiIustrious company nf Jesnits is at the
bottom of every movement of the Roman
Court, whether it be the preparation of an
Encyclical, or the indiGLion of General
Council. NJ. Bluntschli, however, one of
the champions of German Professionalism,
has at length discovered that he and his
c6-religionists have made great mistake
in this respect. He now accounts for the
harmony which exists between the Holy
See and the Jesuits upon different
principle. 1t is not that the Holy See is
influenced by the Jesuits, but that the
Jesuits are obedieBt to the Holy See-a
view of their relative position which we
are persuaded that the sons of st. Ignatius
will consider infinitely more hattering. 1t
has also dawned upon this writer that he
and many others have been totally in the
dark with respect to the personal qualities
of the Holy Father. He now EXPRESSES
himself as follows: "The Pope is Il per-
sonage of consummate prudence, and large
knowledge of life, aud possesses, moreover,
the art, never lost ut Rome, of tracing out
the most ar-rcaching conceptions of
cCCtrsiHsticHt policy, and of directing their
execution with sure hand Like a
philosopher who leposes unshaken on the
basis of his system, ordering in connection
with it all the phenomena of life, he is
himself mighty power, and power all
the mightier for being invested with SO
much aneuity of FORM The sketch is
one which would be applicable to all the
greatest Pontifts, aud is certainly NOT less
SO to him who so gloriously occupies their
chair.

Trr Nun SToRY-TnE TRUTH LEAKING
O1;r.-Tite sister of the Imprisoned nun,
Barbara Ubryk, who is still living at
Warsaw, has communicated to Polish
paper (the Daily Courier some iarther par
ficulars of her history. 1t appears from
her statement that her parents were small
landed proprietors, and that they died
Young, leaving four daughters. OF these
Anna, afterwards named Barbara, was
brought up by her aunt, and afterwards
sent to the school OF the order OF the
Visitationx Here she became III, upon
which shes was taken by the Countess
Dziewanowska into her house. AS soon as
her health began to improve she again
begged 10 be taken to the Convent OF the
Visitation, but she was refused admission.
She then obtained an introduction TO the
CarInelite Convent at Crac0w, and since
then her family heard nothing more of her,
except that she had become insane and was
well treated. In one of the letters sent to
Eleanor Ubryk (Barbara's sister) by the
abbess of the Convent, that lady thus -ex-
presses herself: 1.-THE news which you
have received about the illness of your
sister is correct. She has been suffering
from severe mental disorder for the last
three years, and is subject to very violent
fits.a If you lament her unfortunate
position, We do SO even more. We have to
pay a great deal for her medical treatment,
and are in constant fear of her. 1t is very
painful to us that, as the physicians say,
she must have suffered from this illness
before and we were never told of it; for ii
we had known it she would not have been
admitted to our convent. Iou may be
quite at ease as to the treatment of your
sister; we do her no harm, and she would
be unhappy IL she were anywhere else.
The convent is O. great protection to her,
though God has made her a great and
heavy cross to us.D This letter is dated

Fair for ST Vincent's Home.

= Al ~ q
1t is announced that fair for the
20 Home" OF destitute Catholic boys, under
the patronage of the Society of st. Vincent
of Paul, will be held at Odd Fellows Hall,
Camp street, Noyember 18th and following
day. 1t is said that great preparations are
in progress for making the fair highly at
tractive. The Council of the Society of
st. Vincent de Paul have ordered twelve OF
the largest and richest altar candlesticks
that could be obtained in this country with
spring tubes fifty two inches high, and
~ cruciGx to match. This set is to be given
to the church receiving the largest number
of votes.
/ The Home was opened as 'trefuSeh and
q school of industry for the protection, re-
formation and education of destitute and
neglected boys, so numerous in every large
city, who, if not taken charge of by Chris
tian charity, will grow up pests of society,
and become the inmates of prisons and
penitentiaries. The Society have succeed
ed, through$the kind offices of Very Rev.
Father Raymond, in obtaining Brothers to
take charge of the Institution. There are
now sixty eight boys in the house, with
room for forty eight beds only, while every
day pressing calls are made for the admis-
sion of more boys. ....
An additional building, to accommodate
seventy or more inmates, could be erected
fer $4,000, but the Society already owe
$4,000 on the building, and have but little
over $1,000 to meet current expenses until
the Fair comes off. 1t is-to be hoped TINT
ladies who are solicited to assist in the
conduct of-this Fair will consider how
many widowed mothers hearts will be
gladdened by the result of this effort in
thus making room for their boys, and re-
lieving them of their daily aud nightly
anxiety for the future Of a beloved but
truapt son, who if not taken care of now,
will be lost for time and eternity. We
know that the ladies who will interest
themselves in thus seconding the exertions
of the Society of st. Vincent de Paul will
bestow all their care as labor OF love,
in a true sense of the word-loye for our
Blessed Lord and his poor little ones.
So far, we have heard of the arrange
ments made for six tables: Mrs. Ross takes
charge of Abe st. Joseph's Table, Mrs.
Brady of st. Patrick's, Mrs. Sweeney of St.
Peters, Mrs. Park of st. John the Baptist's
and Mrs Barjac for st. Louis Conference.
No doubt, long before the day fixed for the
will be appropriately taken in chargeby the
different parishes, all of which are equally
interested in this great work.

THE IRISH PEOPLE AND THE IIiIsH LASD.-
every acre of Irish land has been stolen from
the Irish people, and is unjustly,-if not uu-
lawfully, withheld from them; and the land
OcraeS IS therefore the outward aud visible
sign Of foreign usurpaton whose mission is
to desolatc the land, and Whose rule, as it is
to-day aud has been for centuries past, has
never been equalled in infamous crueliy.n
That, says the Morning Post, is the language of
a journal of good circulation, and it suggests
two questions to which it would be desirable
to give an answer. In the first place do the
Irish writers attach to words the same meaning
aud measure language by the same standard
that we do on this side of the Channel And
in the second place, docs this passionate rdving
against the Government of the Queen and
against the established and recognized rights
of property represent the feelings and opinions
of any considerable section of the Irish
populationG Is might he well if, before col
lecting statistics of holdings and investigating
country were to endeavor, as n first step, to
satisfy themselves upon these two points.

canuub understand that system Of ethics which
impels to wiring his bands and weep
and ill the air with his lamentations, over n
murdered landlord or agent and in the next
moment to clap hands, to laugh and rejoice
over hundreds, nay, thousands, of murdered
peasants. Were not old Mrs Ryan, of Killrsk
aud Mrs. Murphy as eifectua44y killed by being
thrown out in the Snow if they were shot
with Tevolverf The only difference I can
see is Zone not at all appreciated by the peEse=
cutors of the poor that in the former case they
would probably get more time to prepare for
death than in the latter. Under the circuul-
stances,5 death was as certain from exposure as
from a gunstIot Talk of pacifying Ireland
while such irresponsible dealings are exercised
with impunity! There is no peace, there can
Ire no peace, and there should be no peace in
country so situated If Ireland wonld bow
down her head and submit in silence TO such
intolerable slavery, she would deserve, not the
sympathy, but the contempt of the civilized
world. Let the people, then, arise and with
one voice demand from the government protcc-
tion for the poor-prOtectiOn for the peasant
as for the peer-and let the power be wrested
at once and forever from men like Hare OF re-
