THE PATERNITY OF TT.

From the Cincinnati Times.
The Catholic journals protest that the ques-
tion of the Bible n the schools is not a
Catholic question. They go so far as to say
that If the Catholic Bible, with the Catholic
notes and commeJts, were to be substituted
for the King Japes version, it would in no
whit lesson taeir objection to the public
school systeVl. They demand the exclusive
education OF their own youth, by their own
teachers, an0 in their own way. On this
subject the FTeemdn's Jou7naEsay
eve tell our respected contemporary, therefore that
II the Catholic translation OF the Books of Holy Writ
which Is 10 be found in the homes OF all better
educated Catholics were to be dissected by the
lessons to be taken from t-such as Catholic
mothers read to their children, and with all the
others added, with the highest Catholic endorse
ment-and II these admirable Bible lessons and
these alone were TO be ruled as to be read in all the
stantia degree, the objection we Catholics have to
letting Catholic children attend the public schools
'Ihis is declaration is very sweeping but we will
'First-We viii not subject our Catholic children
titude OF cases. l
''Second-We win not expose our Catholic chill
dren to association with all the children who have
right to attend the public schools! DO you not know
why?n
This is Pharisaical self-righteousness gone
mad. 1t is legitimate bigotry. 1t has an
illustrious parentage 1t descends from the
hermltS cell OF the second and third centu-
ries, and from the Fathers of the Church at
later period the period when monachism
with its monks superseded aseeticsm with its
most devout hermits. Generally the hermit's
cell was the scene of perpetual MORNINGS,
tears, and sobs, and frantic strugglings with
imaginary demons, and paroXyslns of reli-
gious despair were the texture of his life, and
the dread of spiritual enemies and of that
death which his superstition had rendered so
terrible Eve quote Leckey), embittered every
hour of his existence.
The duty of monk, says ST. Jerome, els
not to teach, but to weep.' We fear there
would be more weeping than teaching in
Catholic schools. ST. Anthony, the true
founder of monachism, refused when boy,
to learn letters, because it would bring him
into too great intercourse with other boys" +"
This is the paternity of the feeling expressed
by the F'reemGn's Journal.
And yet these pious men did not hesitate
to tell very large stories. At time when st.
Jerome had suffered himself to feel a deep
admiration for the genius of Cicero, he was,
as he himself tell us, ''borne in the night
before the tribunal of Christ accused Of
being rather Ciceronian than Christian,
and severely hagellated by the angels" Had
the Saint given this as a dream it would not
have been so outrageous he-a lie believed
to this day for truth, and probably believed
by the editor of the FTeemdn's Journal.
In short, we cannot destroy our American
institution to please either st. Anthony, ST.
jerome, or the Pope. ahrr a9

THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED
sf.o STATES.
From the Pal Mall Gazette.

From the Pail Mall Gazette. hFa
Before the Constitution of the United
States fell into what, to speak plainly, must
be called its present discredit there was no
institution created by it which interested the
foreign observer more strongly than the Su-
preme Court of the Federation. Although
its decisions could only be called forih by
private disputes, M. de Tocqueville Justly
speaks of court which had the power of de-
claring whether law consented to by all ex-
isting authorities was valid as standing at
the head of all known tribunals" The Ian
guage of the continental writer's who de-
scribed it before 1860 was invariably eulo-
CYSTIC, and many of them noticed, as honora-
bly, Characteristic of the English race, the fact
that the branch of it which organized the
greatest democracy of the world had placed
t under the protection, not of string of pre-
ended eternal truths nor under that of the
yeople at large nor Under that of the Legislative
,ody, but under the guardianship Of q bench
lf irremovable judges. The writer of very
Interesting paper in the Nation of New York
alls attention to crisis which is Just oc-
curing in the history of this august tribunal,
and incidentally describes the fall and rise
of its credit among the people of the United
States. Thirty years ago, we are told,
F'the Supreme Court, and, indeed, the Judi
ciary generally, stood as high in the estima-
tion of the public as it is given to mortal
authority ever to stand. No doubt of its purity
lurked in mems minds; no political bias was
believed to influence its decisions; it was
looked upon by the common consent of all
parties as the great landmark, the one great
bulwark of society which was sure to with
stand all stormsSand to secure the nation
whose laws it administered in the blessings
of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happi-
ness" The first sensible decline of it's repu-
tation is alleged to have occurred when
it pronounced the famous Dred
Scott Judgment But this loss
of popularity must only be understood of the
section Of the population which became ulti-
mately dominant, since it is probable that
'he South rejoiced as much as the North
nourned over the decision of the Supreme
Court that Congress was incompetent, by an
Enactment sanctioning compromise, to fix
or ever the territorial limits of slavery.
Though most inopportune and most unfortii-
nate in the long run for those who elected it,

TESTS OF INSANITY IN CRIMINAL,
.r. CASES

..... GASES,
From the NJ Y. sun.
Since insanity was first regarded as fur
nlshing an excuse for crime, at least in some
cases, the opinions of lawyers on the subject
nave undergone great change The ques-
ton has recently been discussed at consider
able length by professional writer's, but we
are still without any exact statement of the
progress which the so-called law of insanity
has made up to the present day
The latest adjudications of the courts in
England have gone so far as to decide that
the proper test of sanity in the commission
OF crime is the ability to distinguish be-
tween right and wrong--the knowledge ON
the part of the accused that the act he was
about to commit was wrong or punishable by
law. From this knowledge of the difference
between right and wrong, and the ability to
apply it to the particular crime in question,
the English law infers the existence of the
power, in the person who committed the act
to obey the right, and to refrain from the
wrong. There, this inference is purely one
of law, though of course it is presumably
founded upon facts which have been eluci-
dated by science. The court, in all such
cases, instructs the jury that if they find from
the evidence that the prisoner, when he did
the act for which he is on trial before them,
possessed knowledge of right and wrong
in regard to the act in question, they must
render a verdict of guilty.
Generally, the American decisions on this
subject have advanced no further than those
in England. In particular cases, however,
greater progress has been made In Penn
sylvania, recently it has been sub stantially
decided that, in addition to the element of
knowledge which is the test of the English
law, the defendant must be shown to have
had 'the power to adhere to the right and to
avoid the wrong before he can be declared
guilty. There have been decisions similar to
this in New York and New Hampshire. The
rule which these decisions seek to establish
is, that the power of action consequent upon
perception of the distinction between right
and wrong must be proved of ITSELF it is not
properly susceptible of being inferred from
the perception. The English rule is, that the
existence of this perception or knowledge
supports the inference that the prisoner had
the power of acting in accordance with it's
dictates.
Up to this point the bject of the tests of
insanity in crime has been adjudicated. The
most important question which it presents is
that based upon the difference between the
English rule and the American decisions re-
ferred to. Ought power of action on the part
of the person said to be insane to be inferred
from his knowledge of the difference between
right and wrong in regard to the alleged
crime? or ought the existence of such power
to be proved or disproved by further evi-
dence?
