Among the stories told of Gene

Among the stories told Of Gene
raj Thomas is one which occurred
when he and his chief of staff, Cen
eral Garfield, were inspecting the
Notifications Of Chattanooga in
1868. They heard shout: "Hello,
mister You l want to speak
to your and General Thomas found
that he was the person addressed
by an uncouth backwoods East
Tennessee soldier. He stopped,
and the dialogue which ensued was
as follows:

knowledge, let him be accursed.
y II any one says that miracles
could not have occurred, and that,
therefore, all descriptions OF them
including those in the Scriptures,
are to be regarded as fables and
myths; or, II he says that miracles
could never be certainly ascertain
ed, and that, therefore, the divine
origin Of the Christian religion
cannot BY them be properly proved,
let him be accursed. -
8. II any one says that the faith
on which Christians agree In the
preaching of the Gospel is only a
conviction produced by the neces-
sary arguments Of human science,
on that the grace of God Is only
necessary lfoFthe living faith which
shows itself in active charity, let
him be accursed.
6. II any one says that the con-
dition Of the faithful and that Of
those who have not yet arrived at
the true faith are equal, SO that a
Catholic believer is at liberty to
doubt the doctrine which has been
taught him by his Church until its
credibility and truth are establish
ed by scientific evidence, let him
be accursed.
Iy.-oF FAITH AND THE UNDER
STANDING.
/. If any one says that there
are no true mysteries, properly SO
called, in the Divine revelation, but
that all the doctrines of the faith
could be recognized and proved by
the educated understanding from
natural principles, let him be ac-
cursed.
2. If any one says that human
science should be treated without
any regard to supernatural revela-
tion, or that the conclusions deriv-
ed from these sciences, even when
they are opposed to Catholic doc
trine, cannot be forbidden by the
Church, let him be accursed.
3. If any one says that it isper-
mitted to adhere to or participate
in the opinions condemned by the
Church, in 30 far only as they are
not declared heretical, let him be
accursed.
4. If any one says it is possible
that meanings may in any case be
given, in accordance h'the pro
gress Of science, to the doctrines o.
the Church which is different from
those recognized by the Church
let him be accursed.
We, therefore, conjurc, in the ex-
ercise Of the duties of our high pas.
toral Office, all faithful Christians
and especially those who exercise
| inspectorial or educational func
tions; and we command, in virtue
of the authority of Jesus Chris
our God and Savior, that the.
should labor zealously to remove
these errors and spread the light o
the purest faith. But as it is no
sufficient to avoid beretical corrup
tion. If the errors are not also
carefully escaped from which are
more or less connected with it, We
exhort all in their Office to observe
the constitutions and dccreeI
through which such corrupt opin
ions, which cannot here be all spe
CITED, are condemned and forbid
ded by the Holy See.

The following is a translation Of
the "Canones de Ecclesia," which
have just been published by the
Allgemeine Zeitung, and adopted
in the Ecumenical on Saturday:
I.-oF GOD, TIE CREATOR OF ALL
THINGS.
/. If any one denies the one
true God as creator of the visible
and invisible, let him be accursed.
2. If any one is not ashamed to
declare that nothing exists beyond
matter, let him be accursed.
8. Ifany one says that the sub
stance and the essence of God and
of all things are one and the same,
let him be accursed.
4. If any one does not admit
that the world and all things that
are in it have been produced in
their whole substance by God out
of nothing, or says that God has
not created them Internationally
by his own free will, but has crea-
ted them by the same necessity
which causes self-love, or denies
that the world has been created for
the glory of God, let him be accurs-
cd.
Furthermore, we wish to exhort
all to guard themselves against the
deceptions of those who, in order
to conceal the godlessness oftheir
teaching, misuse the most holy
names Of the Trinity the inccrna-
tion, the retention, the resurrec-
tion, and others, by turning the
venerable mysteries Of the Chris
tian religion into the most pervert-
ed notions of Pantheism.

l. If any one denies that the one
true God, one Creator and Lord, may
be recognized with certainty by
his creature through the natural
light of human understanding, let
him be accursed.
2. Ifany one says that man can
not be raised by divine assistance
to supernatural knowledge, but can
and must attain by his own efforts
to the possession of all that is true
and good, let him be accursed.
8. If any one does not accept the
entire books of the Holy Scripture
with all their parts, as confirmed
by the Holy Synod of Trent as ho-
ly and canonical, or denies that
they have been inspired by God,
let him be accursed.

DYING GAME.
A TRAGEDY OF THE FAR WEST.
BY CAPT. H--D.

One night twelve years ago, four
students were seated in q room of
one Of the number, in an eastern
college. For an hour the topic of
their conversation had been mathe-
matics, when the most boyish look
ing of them said:
"Supposc We change the subject,
boys?''
agreed" said two. The re-
naming student silently acquiesc-
ed. Mathematics was his forte,
and he loved difficult problems bet
ter than his meals.
"But what will we talk about,
Willardy' asked he of the young
est.
"About dying"
"The three looked at their COM
rade with surprise written upon
their countenances. Willard Ow-
ems smiled.
"Oh! I'm not going to couple
church matters with it, boys, so
you need not look SO blank. What
mean is this: Let each one
choose his way of dying"
"Very well, I was thinking OF
that last night as / finished the ac-
count of Mr.. Harcourt's sudden
taking off," said Mowbray Webber
swell, Willard, let lis hear your
desired leave-taking' of this world
and things appertaining thereto
spoke another of the students.
Certainly, boys, you will fol
low"
1--WE will"
"Then chums, l want to die in
my bed-die easy, with friends and
relations around"
"a mode desired and gained by
thousands, Willard" said the
young mathematician; "but fol
me, give me a short, painless sick
ness. do not want to linger, mol
to have any weeping around me
it would unncrve me-"
"And for me-" said the third
Gerald George, "give me sudder
death without a moments warning
Like George, / do not want to suf
fer"
The three could not help hui
shudder at the words and the non
chalant air with which they were
uttered. But what better ough
they to have expected of their com
rade-an impassioned lover o
Voltaire and Payne.
"And now, Mowbray, you arr
last" said Gerald, show do yor
want to die?"
"Game, boys, game" he said.-
ayes, / want to die game"
At that moment quick, sharl
rap startled them, and the voice o
their professor reached their ears.
Bedtime, boys"
"By jolly! it is late cried younf
George, glancing at his watch
"Ten minutes till eleven.
AS the professor left the door i
was opened-three of the student
stepped out into the hall and sough
theirrespective chambers. The re
manning one extinguished hi
