AT rHr CATHEDRAL I. : Bishop whelan

continued, on yesterday afternoon, his
address on tie Ecumenical Council and
Papal InfalIiBility, the preliminary por.
ton Of which had been delivered On the
Sabbath before q A large and attentive
audience was present, among whom
were many Protestants, desiring infor-
nation in authentic form concerning
the dogma which has excited so much
interest in the religious world during
the past year.
The Bishop stated that the doctrine
Of Papal Inability was not new one.
1t was a legitimate and inevitable re-
suit Of the teachings Of Scripture and
Of the Church during centuries past.
1t was founded upon the infallibility Of
Christ, the great head Of the Church
and conferred by Him upon the Apostle
Peter when He designated him as the
rock" upon which the Church should
be builded. =, Christ had prayed fol
Peter, that his faith might be firm
and surely that prayer was fully
granted by the Father. He especially
commissioned Peter to preach to hi:
brethren and confirm them in the
faith and, after His resurrection, gave
him the command, Feed my sheep.
Stress was laid upon these facts tc
show that the Apostle, whose ecclesi
astical descendants the Popes Of thu
Catholic church have been, was, wher
speaking Of matters OF Christian faith
entitled to implicit credence, or, in ont
word, infallible. This is what is claim
ed for the Popes-not personal inialll
bility-but official.
The reason and necessity for the pro
mitigation OF the dogma was to secure
unity of faith. Without final test t.
which all teachings must bow, tn,
Church would be tossed about b,
every wind Of doctrine and its Use
fulness and authority impaired. Thi
result would be avoided by the univer
sal recognition of Papal infallibility
which doctrine all good Catholics wer
earnestly and affectionately admonishe'
TO receive. 1t must be matter of taiti
as well as Of practice.
The Bishop was listened to arten
lively throughout his discourse AM

The Thoughts of a Day.

If allthe thoughts which pass through
the mind of a person in a day could be
gathered together aud placed in the
order in which they first appeared, what
a mountain Of ideas would be brought
to view They would form a monster
quilt OF mental patchwork, checkered
with pieces of every shape, size and hue.
They would prove time, space and order.
to be nonenties compared with thought
The speed with which they travel from
place TO place as far exceeds that
OF electricity, as the rapidity of
motion Of that aunihilating substance
does an ordinary canal boat. One
thought is resting upon the ediblcs for
breakfast, the next, in second of time,
has traversed the universe aud reach ID
the suns centre, wondering what il is
made of; while third is peering into
the snow wreaths that circle round the
cap of the topmost point of Mount
Blance. Then follows half thought on
death, twenty on the means Of keeping
alive two on the former Presidents
and ten on the President elect; three
on a new coat, aud one on getting pair
Of boots mended six. on the change OF
life, and twelve on the change in the
pocket. And if the thinker should
chance TO be an editor, thought of a
piece on shocking murders, horrible nc.

The POWER OF Music.-Thalberg
on trip to Niagara, shortly after his
arrival in this conntry, stopped. At
temperance house in Albaby, and upon
demanding some champagne, what waa
his amazement on seeing the round eyes
Of an Irish waiter open in astonishment.
~ want some champagne" wildly
reiterated the great instrumentalist.
Faith J aud it is champagne you are
afther asking for?" stammered forth the |
Hibernian.
"Certainly"
by my soul, then, ye can't have il"
And why ?" inquired Thalberg, 10
much astonishment.
The likes OF it, including whisky
punch, is not to be had ia this hotelD
For moment the thirsty musician
was aelast.
What can have then 7"
Water, tay. aud coffee"
Go and send me the proprietor"
said Thalberg; " will speak with him.
Ye may speak till the day Of doom,
but yell fnd it Of no USE" was Pats
muttered observation, as be quilted tho
room.
ln few moments the landlord en-
tered the apartment. His lips were
closely set together; and frown was
upon his brow. He was evidently as
tonished that the foreigner should per-
sist in his wish to contravene the rules
of the establishment. Meanwhile he
had occupied himself in opening piano
that stood in the room. It was not Of
the newest class, but was tolarably in
tune. As the proprietor Of the tenn
perauce hotel entered he began TO play.
First the frown gradually vanished from
the brow of the landlord, when his lips
enclosed, and, fually relaxed into .
smile. When the artist concluded, he
waited for word, but none came
Without turning round: THE man is
obstinate; ! must try him with some
thing else"
He accordingly began his aTaran-
fella."
Ere he had half finished, he heard
the rattling of bottles and glasses on tho
tables, and wheeled around. Pat had
re-eutercd the apartment with bottles OF
champagne.
i" thought that it was not allowed, !"
said Thalberg.
"Faith . aud he'll give you dozen,
if We like it. He says man that can
knock music out of piano in yer way,
may get drunk every night if he chooses
to. So, there it is for ye."

WHAT is LIFH.-Life is but deaths
vestibule, and our pilgrimage on earth
but joarney to the grave. The pulse
that preserves our being beats our dead
march, and the blood which circalates
our life is floating it onward tothe depth
of death. Today We see our friends in
health to morrow we hear Of their dis.
cease; we clasped the hand Of the strong
man yesterday, and to-day we close his
eyes. We rode in chariot to comfort
but an hour ago, and in few more
hours the last black chariot must con-
vey US to the final resting place Of all
the living.
The Democratic advocate., 1870-03-17

If you would enjoy good health, be
regular in your habits. Have regular
times for eating, and cat at no other
times. Whatever system you adopt
one, two, or three meals per day be
regular about it, Do not eat two meals
one day, aud three the next. Better
eat three meals every day. Retire and
rise at regular hours. Have regular
term for exercise. Arrange your work
whatever it may be, so that it can be
attended during certain hours, aad have
other regular hours for recreation, study,
etc. In short, have a regular time for
everything, as far as possible, aud let
everything be done at the appointed
time.

The FoLLIEs OF GREAT MEN--
Tycho Brahe, the astronomer changed
color aud his legs shook under him on
meeting hare or fox. DR. johnson
would never enter n room with his left
foot foremost if, by mistake it did get
foremost, he would step back and place
his right foot foremost. Julius Caesar
was almost convulsed by the sound of
thunder, and always wanted to get into
a cellar or underground to escape the
noise. To Queen Elizabeth, the simple
word death" was full of horrors. Even
Talleyraud trembled aud changed color
on hearing the word pronounced. Mar
shal Sake, who met and overthrow Cd.
posing armies, fed and screamed in ter.
ror at the sight of cat. Peter the
Great could never be persuaded to cross
bridge though he tried to master
the terror, he failed to do so; whenever
he sat foot on one he would shrek out in
distress and agony. Byron would
never help any one to salt ut the table.
nor would he be helped himself; if any of
the article happened to be split ou the
table, he would jump up and leave his
meal unfinished.

In the Recorders Court, recently, .
case was called wherein boy about
eight years of age was witness. Pre-
vious to administering the oath to the
boy he was asked if he knew the hattiro
of an oath, and among other questions
the justice asked "Do you know any
thing about hell ?" The boy scratched
his head for moment, and looking tho
justice in the face, innocently replied (.
" No, sir, | never was there id my life. 4"

corder. The oath was administered TO

Memorials Of Life.

No matter what may be your sphere
In life, you may so act, work in it as TO
secure some good result. In our mere
contact with others, as friends or ac.
quaintances, we mag produce an influ.
ence which will remain an ever fresh
memorial Of soul Illuminated with truth
and purely. No stately monument may
rise to grace the spot Of earth which
incloses our ashes, but our namc may be
enshriued amid the sweetest associations
10 the deepest recesses of loving hearts,
IT'S true that
"The evil that men do live after them"
But what legacy2 crushing, blasting,
withering much that would otherwise
have been good? How great the ac
countability of those who WELD potent
influence for nefarious influences.
"The memory of the just is blessed
Let this urgent yet inspiring truth be
prominently fixed in our minds. How
vividly illustrated it is by the examples
OF those holy men who far back iu the
centuries sought to promote the welfare
OF others rather than exalt themselves
whosN very nobility aud power grew out
Of tn, sanity lives, who.e names arc
as fresh now as the dews which still
brighten the hillside were once their
feet pressed the springing grass, aud
whose deeds and ringing precepts stim-
ulate us to lives of Christian manliness
and virtue

SULLEN CHILDREN.-Sulleu children
should not be punished in such way
as to provoke their sullenness. What.
ever punishment they are able to bear
with dogged obstinacy is plainly not for
their good. If the necessity for inhict-
ing pain cannot be avoided, it should
be sharply done, rather than continue
for any length of time. Hence, all
task-work, con6nements, and prohibi-
tions of whatever kind which restrain
action, are to be especially avoided
with children given TO 'sulks."

THE FOOLS FARM

John Mosgar was wealthy farmer,
with some few hundred acres of land,
half of which was fertile and well.tilled
aud the other half range Of rock y
upland, from which nature drew forth
nothing save scanty, almost worthless
woods The better half of the farm
was well stocked and well ordered; the
farm house was the best in the village
of Daleford, and the out buildings were
the envy of the ncighbors.
John Mosgar h d knavish brother
aud n foolish son-his .only relatives
Robert, the brother, by just dispen.
sation of Providence, was a man of
comparative indigence, but his brother
John overlooked his faults, and saw
only his poverty and relationship; and
when dying, he called Robert to his
bedside, aud, placing the hand of his
sou Daniel in his, adjured him to pro.
tect the imbecile, for his fathers sake.
The fool smiled, and the knave
smiled, too; the one ticklcd at the idea
of having new friend, and the other
at having a new victim, easily pluck ed
aud ruined
~ will see after him, John" said
Robert, with look of assumed affection
for his nephew. 81 will prove father
to him when you are goue, and | will
turn the farm to the best possible ac-
count, that your spirit, if it shall hover
about the earth, may be pleased with
what | shall do"
Enough, Robert, adieu. We shall
meet again in heaven. Farewell, my
poor brain wrecked son ~ gasped the
dying man.
"Good. bye, father" grinned Daniel,
twisting his body awkwardly about
" Hope you'll have pleasant journey

John Mosgar died, aud Lawyer Twist.
wells assistance was called in to settle
the affair. 1t had been the expressed
will of Mr. Mosgar that his estate should
be equally divided between his son and
his brother. Half to one aud half to
the other" were his words, though the
wisdom which prompted them was not
equal to that of King Solomon.
Lawyer Twistwcll, at the instigation
of Robert Mosgar, made a cruel con.
struction of the will, and awarded the
better half, all fertile and arabic land,
to the uncle; while the meancr portion,
consisting of meagre woodland and
rocks, fell to the share of poor Daniel.
The more heartless and unprincipled
OF the neighbors laughed at the fool,

WHO WILL CAREf

Who will care2
When we lie beneath the daisies,
Underneath the churchyard mold,
And the long grass DER our faces
Lays It's fingers damp and soldj
Wien we sleep from care and sorrow,
And the ills Of earthly life
Sleep to know no sad tomorrow,
With its bitterness Of strife
Who will care?
Who will care?
Who will come to weep above US,
Lying, oh ! so white and still,
Underneath the skies OF summer,
When all natures pulses thrill
To new life, glad and tender,
Full of beauty rich and sweet,
Aud the world Is clad in splendor
That the years shall DER repeat
Who will care?
Who will care2
When Queen Aulumn's flowers blossom,
And she stoops in pity down,
With white flower for our bosom,
Taken from her royal crown?
Who will come to kneel in pity
By our long and narrow bed,
When the wild winds sing their ditty
In the grasses DER our head
Who will care7
Who will care?
When the Springtime's glad smile fingers
On the meadows, far and wide,
And she drops, from rosy fingers,
Bloom and leaf on every sidei
Who will come, with tender yearning,
To the graves of those they miss?
Who will sigh for our returning
To their presence and their kiss
Who will carc7
Who will care?
Who will think Of white hands lying
On n still and silent breast,
Never more to know Of signing,
Evermore to know OF rest2
Who will care? No one can tell us,
But il rest and peace befall,
Will it matter il they miss us,
Or they miss us not at all
Not at all?
