PROTESTANT CATHOLICISM. - The New
York Tablet, in reply to an article in an
Episcopal paper, wondering how an Angli-
can can become Catholic, concludes as
follows:
There is one thing which we are often
puzzled to understand. OF course, we have
no high opinion of the learning and ability
| OF Anglican or EpiscOpalian divines, es-
pecially of their knowledge of ecclesiasti-
| cal antiquity, which is worse than no
| knowledge at all; but we do not like to
deny them common sense or ordinary rea-
son, and we are puzzled to understand how
any man of common sense can believe that
Anglicanism or Episcopalianism is Ca
thollc, the one confined to q fraction of the
people of one nation and it's colonies, and
the other to much smaller fraction of the
people OF another nation. Will the Ameri-
can Church'ndn help MS out of our puzzle Z
We can understand our neighbors of the
Protestant Churchmdn, and we respect
them for their frankness and honesty in
avowing their true character, for sailing
under their own colors but your Anglo
Catholics, Puseyites or Ritualists, are our
great puzzle, first how they can pursuade
themselves, and second, how they can hope
to pursuade others, of q thing so plainly
absurd as that the Anglican or Episcopal
Church is branch of the Catholic Church.
or that either has any relation to the Ca
tholic Church or Church of Christ, except
the relation of antagonism. 1t is a marvel
to US, the JUNCTION with which they saw,
We are Catholics, not Roman Catholics"
1t is marvellous, with what q round voice
and confident tone they pronounce these
sacramental words.
Now we do not like to set these people
down as devoid of common sense or of
common honesty, but how otherwise ex-
plain their pretensiOns, unless we resort to
the hypothesis of Satanic delusionP We
needed Dr.. Newman's History of his Re
llglous Opinions, before we could believe
that he could even for a moment have be-
heved his Tract No. 80, or that a man who
saw SO much could refrain from seeing
more. We have come to the conclusion
that the Anglican mind is peculiar, and
lacks the logical element of human nature
or that, trained in decidedly unintellectu-
al and illogical system, in both religion and
politics, their logical faculty has never
been developed beyond the embry onic
state; or that Englishmen. like many other
men, love their own opinion better than
they do truth, and that they seek not to
ascertain what is true, but for some way of
ehectually maintaining their own opinions
We may be very wrong in our conclu-
sion, but nothing seems clearer to us than
that Anglicanism is Professionalism, IS de-
cldedly Protestant as any other heresy
born of the Reformation, and that Ritual |
ism Is moonshine, or ground assumed as |
2 compromise between Professionalism and |
Catholic truth, adopted as an escape from |
defending Professionalism, on the one hand, |
and of submitting to the chair of Peter, on |
The other. But we doubt if their comDro- |
Mise, composed of equal doses of truth and |
will help them in the end.

A TALE OF 1792.-In these sad times of
war and disaster it may interest your read
ers to hear a true incident of the great
Revolution of 1892. During the Reign of
Terror, when every one who had anything
to lose fed from France, taking with them
as much of th,i properly as they could
carry, great many rich proprietors of
estates in Bretagne escaped to England
| from st. Malo in little coasting and fishing
smacks, taking all the money and jewels
| that-they could collect upon their persons.
The owners of these little vessels drove a
good trade in this manner, and one of them,
named Guerin, became very rich, bought q
chateau and estate, married we'll, and had
three daughters, two of whom made good
marriages, and the youngest, Therese, re-
NAMED with her father, who, before he was
far advanced in life, was seized with fatal
malady. He had never practised any reli-
gion since he was child, but when he
found his end approaching he sent for
priest, and confessed to him that he had
murdered all the people who had taken
passage in his boat for England, and after
securing all their property, had thrown
their bodies into the sea, and that was how
his fortune had been obtained. The priest,
of course, refused to give him absolutiOn
unless he made restoration of all the pro-
perty so fearfully obtained to the heirs of
the murdered victims; and he left the
wretched man, promising to return the
next day to hear his decision. He sent for
his daughter Therese, and told her be was
afraid of going to hell, and must restore
his ILL., gotten wealth to its lawful owners,
the heirs of the murdered victims, and she
must resign herself to poverty. Therese
declared she would do no such thing, that
she had as much right to the property as
any one else, and that she would not voiun-
tarily impoverish herself to crafty the
fancy of dying man. "Mais, ma file, je
ne veux pas aller en- enfer !" screamed the
wretched man-(" But, child, will not go
to hell !")T'Ah mon pere, vous habitue
reg, CONNIE tant d'autres"-(Oh father,
you will get used to it, as others do")-was
the reply of the affectionate daughter. The
priest did not give him absolution, and the
wretched creatures bowls of despair and
anguish terrified the whole village. He
died in agonies of remorse. His daughter
still lives. All her much priced riches
have melted away, and she lives in desti-
tusion, unpitied by any one. The old sailor
who related to me this history was a SER
want in the house at the time of Guerin's
death, and attended upon him to the last.
He says he has been in many a battle, but
has never witnessed such scene of horror
as the deathbed of the murderer.

CLEARING OUT THE CELTs.-The fine old
Celts of the Highlands, the descendants of
the early immigrations from Ireland when
it was still the land of the "Scots," have
lent but rapid "improvement off the face
of the EARTH" A melancholy story illus
trative of that fact is told. An old army
officer was sent to recruit men for higher
regiment toward the end of the Peninsular
war. In the district of Caithnesshire he
hve years ofage, all above six feet in height,
and all sons of small tenants on the Duke
OF Sutherland's estate. This gentleman
travelled last summer over the district of
ECaithnesshire, where he had formerly en-
listed these men. From one end to another
he never saw human being! Wild deer
and other game, sheep and bullOcks are,
in these degenerate days, looked upon as
more profitable than men. If High}anders
could only be hunted and shot like grouse
or red deer, or fattened for slaughter like
sonllocks and sheep, they would be care
fully preserved, and would increase and
multiply. Being only non edible human
cattle, they must be got rid of for four leg
ged. pets or feathered bipeds. While the
wlfds of Australia and America are being
rapidly peopled, vast districts in Scotland
are being turned into wildernesses. There
may be political economy in this, but there
is something wrong about it for all that:
A time may come-indeed, may be at hand
when the State which has allowed these
things to go unchecked shall, among it's
other errors and negligences, bitterly de-
plore the want of those hardy and brave
populations which have been exterminated
for the better amusement of few gentry,
or for the purpose of reducing the price Of
mutton fartbing per stone. 1t seems to |
Us clear enough on broad principles, that |
any system of land ownership which has
the power of driving out people to make
way for brute creatures is wrong and needs |

Thus the world advances, its ordinary
cycles OF progress and retreat interrupted
ever and anon by strange, comet-like phe-
nomena, which seem to have their origin
far away in another order of things, and
yet are, doubtless, not less reducible to
general principles than the recurring events
of ordinary life.

Our ncighbors of the Democrat are becoming
terribly exercised about publishing the county
affairs in any other paper besides the Democrat.
They insist that it shall not be done, and at the
same time boast wonderfully of their large circu-
lotion. They even claim double the circulation
of the american Ncighbors We must call you to
order. Everybody knows the fact that the Demo
crat is only circulated among a certain portion
of the Democrats, and that the others utterly
refuse to recognize it as true Democratic Jour
nal. But as the ''SunPury Ring is fast diminish
ing, the editors are compelled to do something to
keep up appearance, and now resort to eXuggera-
tions orthcir subscription list thinking they can
gull the community and retain the printing OF the
compel those who desire to have the county news
vain neighbors as to think that everybody wants
to read your paper We venture to say that
about half of your present subscribers do not read
the Democrat from one month to another, and
merely take it for fear they might be considered
ont of the "Sunbury Ring As for the borough
affairs, we would state that the editors cannot
shut the eyes of their readers on that score, as
they generally read all matters pertaining TO
this borough in that paper as well as in the Re
publican papers, and for which the editors never
failed to get well paid for. Certainly their penu-
rlous dispositions would not allow them to print
anything gratis. We have previously stated that
we did not expect any fthe county patronage. but
we desire to have it published in papers Of both
parties, rs an act of justice to those who have to
pay for it.
