PEcULIARITIEs OF THE WILD GoosE.-
This splendid bird is no Mormon, because
the gander will never have but one mate mt
q time, and never forsakes bis first love
unless separated by some cause which he
cannot prevent But, with all his devotion,
he evidently is of Turkish or Oriental pro-
clivities, and has never heard of lswoman's
rights" because he will not allow his mate
to take grain from the same dish with him.,
unless lac has finished his meal, aud then lie
will allow her to eat hers. If there is not
one of his own tribe left for some matrimo-
NAL -secfing gander, he win mate with one
of foreign birth and other coloTs, rather
than remain single. Ttse1r noise is quite
musical, and especially just before a storm.
Though wild in their nature, they are
easily demonstrated, and quite fond of being
caressed. The female lays about ten eggs,
Is good setter, and very careful Of her
young. Her mate does Constant sentinel
duty, anu icaTs nutning w1iic projecting lis
young.

Impious Outrage.

Our readers have probably remarked in
the daily papers, during tie week past, a
paragraph announcinG/the kidnapping of
one of the inmates IF the Convent, corner
of st. Philip and Johnson streets -;
The particulars of this affair, so far as
we have learned, are about as follows
The COpfent referred to is that of the Sisters
of St%Joseph. On the Oath of last month
one of the novices was called to the parlor
ITO see her sister and female. cousin.
These relatives entreated her to leave the
Convent and return to her home, but with
out avail. She replied that she was TWEEN
weight years old, had taken the step to
which they objected with the eensentof her
mother and after long and mature refec=-
ton, and that after having been more than
a year in the Convent she had never for a
moment wavered in her resolution or re-
GREETED her choice. .t, i5r. } -. u ..r~i.tO
Here her brother and brother in law
burst into the room, seized her, and not
withstanding her outcries and Iresistance,
bore her to carriage waiting outside.
Having forced her into this conveyance,
they and the young ladies entered, and
drove off so rapidly that pursuit was use
less. Another sister was with her in the
parlor during this scene, but owing t0gthe
Ignorance of the community in matters of
law, instant notice of the outrage was not
given to the police, and it was net until
next day that an affidavit of these facts
was made. In the meantime, it is thought
that the young lady thus seized has been
removed beyond the limits of tire State.
This bold outrage on private rights and
personal liberty has, so far, attracted but
little attention from the city press, which
holds itself forth as the champion of law
and morals. Has kidnapping ceased to be
a crime7 Is there nothing reprehensible
in forcibly depriving citizen of liberty
and spiriting him or her away to bond
age beyond the public cognizance9 Or is
it that Nun, a Sister of Charity, or other
religious, has put herself beyond the pale
of civil protection, and is not entitled to
her personal freedom of motion 2 Even st.
Paul, though Christian and priest, dido
not lose his right of Roman citizenship, and
his prosecutors dared not cruelty him. The
American Republic ought to be as scrupu-
lous in this respect as was the Roman.

ACADEMY OIL ST.. JosEPH's.-The school
exhibition of this institution for young Ia
dies took place last Wednesday afternoon.
AS far as could be judged from cursory
survey, there were about one hundred pu-
pills present. This establishment, presided
over by Sister Ann de Sales, 10 beautifully
located on Napoleon Avenue, and must be
very prosperous, judging from its capacity
to erect new buildings and carry on free
schools. "a. zas.e za3s-a.!,5qstg l,;s
The great success attained by these good
Sisters in teaching needlework, iembroide-
~, music, etc., besides the usual branches
of a polite education, is not more to their
credit than the patience and zeal with
which they conduct an extensive free
school for the benefit Of poorer children.
We hope that their holy example of charity
viii be universally followed, until the
blessing of good moral education shall be
as accessible to all in this country and at
this day as was the case throughout. Enrope

also that PARENTS viii consider ita fsvora-

For THE MISSIONARY FIELD.-This week
one Of the Marist Fathers, heretofore in
charge of a church in Algiers, leaves for
Panama, on his way to New Zealand,
where he is sent by his superiors.i This
missionary field has already been irrigated
by the blood of many martyrs of the Con-
gregation of the Marists Fathers. The
Rev. Father Bensfeld, full of zeal and
activity, win be greatly regretted by his
former parishioners of Algiers-more par
ticularly by the Germans, who were espe-
eially under his charge. 917 ~ l1l.tst5

the mere fact that the social circle at the

about forty, and it is greatly to their credit
that they know how to entertain tha;,

This association is formed principally for
the personal improvement of the membera
in piety and intelligence. Works of en-
terror charity, though not excluded, are of
a secondary Importance, and it speaks well
for any parish to have the names of sixty
young men enrolled in such q cause, as ia
the case in this instance. Sixty young men
in the hey-day of life, surrounded with the
follies of society, who have the courage to
resist not only the allurements of evil, but
the terrors of human respect, and openly
enroll themselves as practical followers of
Christ, are not to be found in every parish.
Their presence in any community is @
healthy sign of the condition of public

| ST. VINCENT's ACADEMY.-Thise excellent
school is situated on Napoleon Avenue.
Jefferson City, and is under the control of
the Christian Brothers. We had the pleas
ure of attending its annual examination.
held during the past week, in the st. Ste
phen's Hall, corner of Chestnutvand Jena
streets. Notwithstanding the>extreme heat
T of the weather, the frafl7of examination
was densely crowded, and tie audience sat
with unwearyfng attention, while fans,
handkerchiefs and ice water were in the
greatest demand. s2.. a.-.---
: This institution has no power of confer
ring degrees, being merely an academy,
and therefore the studies in which the
classes were examined did not reach SO
high a grade as at the recent examination
of st. Mary's College, conducted by the
same Brotherhood. The pupils, however,
did remarkably well-answering with
promptness and correctness. Many ad-
dresses were delivered and essays read, to
the great pleasure, and sometimes amuse-
nent, of the audience, while frequently

We have heardrOf very high commenda-
tions being bestowed on this establish
ment, and congratulate parents in that
vicinity upon their good fortune in being
so we'll provided. We remarked with some
surprise, on one occasion, that there were
a set of Young men and lads in the extreme
rear of the hall who seemed inclined to be
noisy and disagreeable. They were too
enthusiastic in their applause, both as to
intensity and duration. This, upon inves-
tigation, we ascertained to be caused by
chagrin at the suppression, by the ecclesi-
astical authorities, of a musical society to
which they had belonged. If their taste in
music was no better than their manners
we do not wonder at tho collapse of their
association.

. tisement of this excellent institution, ,situ-
ated in Richmond, Va. Many persons,
from various motives, prefer sending their
. children abroad for an education. 1t is
true that they do not like to send them
into Puritanical latitudes, but select loca-
ton as far North as they can find Southern
habits, manners and modes of thought pre-
vailing. The climate of these higher lati-
tudes is thought to be preferable for the
formation of certain constitutions. The

for the Sisters of Providence. 1t will take
place tomorrow afternoon, the 5th inst, at
S o'clock. Peculiar interest attaches to
this event from the fact that it will be the
first convent ever built in this State for an
order of colored Sisters.
These Sisters were brought to this city
from Baltimore by the Most Rev. Arch
bishop, expressly for works of zeal among
people of their own color. They have been
here now several years, attracting univer-
sal respect by the unobtrusive piety of
their lives, and doing all the good that any
one could reasonably have anticipated from
their presence. So we'll have they succeed
ed that the field of their operations is to be
enlarged and their means of elevating the
moral character of their race increased, by
the erection of the building to be inaugu-
rated tomorrow. ...4
There is no reason why the colored peo-
pie of this country should not be as good
Christians as any others, if their moral edu-
cation Is taken charge of in time and con-
Quoted by competent persons. These good
Sisters will not merely instruct the girls
under their charge in secular sciences, and
see to the development of their intelligence,
but they will also watch carefully over
their manners and morals, essaying pa
tiently, and often successfully to eradicate
from their hearts the evil principles some
times implanted by early associations or
inherited from a degraded ancestry.
We know that all Catholics will pray for
the prosperity of this good work and for
it's extension until the young people of the
colored race shall all be reared with as
much careful regard to their moral charac-
ter as white children. We doubt not that
many jealous Catholics will, by their pres
ence on the occasion referred to, not only
pay that-reEeEeRee due to the sacred eeEe-
monies of the Church., but lend the sane
ton of their approval to the nature of the
work. u q - 4 IN
