England is in advance of She has es-
tablished several ministerial intelligence of
fees To these offices any vacant parish may
apply. for a servant (of the Church by law es-
tablished), and any distressed clergyman for a
situation. The price of the market is not very
high at the present writing, if we may judge
,from the quotations in Chambers Journal Two
hundred clergymen are reported as out of
employment" One man-who, with conscious
self-satire, has described his views" as mod
erate-ventures to demand $1,000 year. Only
seven aspire to $780, single divine under
bids these by $50. Thirty-five ask for 5000,
and the other $50 or SO of reverend gentlemen
actually going, or wanting to go for $500 a
year or less several asking less than a good
buffers wages; and one offering himself for
" two dollars and twenty-five cents for each
service and his travelling expenses" The
whole 200 could be had for less than half the
price paid for bishop.

accredited. But sending private mes
senger would not give the same publicity
and eclat to the movement, and 1T would
hardly do for King William to send min
lister direct to the royal presence OF a private
citizen. Like the King of the Gipsies the
King of the red shirts is not exactly
recognized as a potentate though he is as
power.
Now then Prussia may rest satisfied.
She has conciliated the Revolution and
gained the sympathy of the Reds. 1t is
better, they say, to have the good will of a
dog than not, but hardly when obtained at
the expense of losing the esteem of decent
people. Garibaldi may be gained, but the
Pope must be indignant at the outrage,
and they are the two representative men.
The evil portion of society will probably
be Influenced by the former, but the good
must sympathize with the latter. We can
not, then, see what Prussia has taken by
this move.

Garibaldi and King William.

1t appears that this modern Don Quixote
is still regarded as a representative man
an accredited agent OF mauuais esprits
throughout Europe. Though complete
failure in himself perfectly incompetent to
fill the role of military hero which circum-
stances and -his-own incalculable impu-
dence have thrust upon him, yet his mere
name is q kind of watchwQrd with his
party for want of q better one, and he is
regarded as the chief of the factions and
revolutionary element everywhere. 10
put ones self in good terms with red-Re-
publicanism all that is necessary is to be
friendly with Garibaldi. All the brigands,
convicts, ex-galley slaves, carbonari, in
cendiaries, cut-throats and maTcontents of
every description in Italy worship Cart
baldi, and throughout Europe he is the
central figure of revolution and organized
lawlessness.
He Is the old man of the mountain to
whom it is much safer for respectable
sovereigns to render moderate tribute,
and consequently we Il find the Prusslan
King lately paying homage by proxy to
this important parsonage. The telegraph
informs us that his minister at Rome has
recently been on a visit to Garibaldi. This
is the entente cordidIe with the said flibuster,
but how the said minister could behave
more insultingly to the Papal Court it is
hard to see. One would think that If he
had any business communications which
must be made he could send a messenger
instead of abandoning his post to visit
openly the most inveterate and unscrupu-
lous enemy of the power to which he was

with bad grace from some of those whom
it had so long possessed. These parties
have been so persistent and SO bitter in
tional in their acceptance of Christianity
that the pill of Papal Infallibility is q bit
ter one for them. If the subject were not
SO serious it would be amusing to notice
the pretty little articles under which they
hide their defeat, and by which some of
them even pretend to hold the question as
still to some extent open. Certain French
newspapers, for instance, so long and SO
publicly welded to the defeated cause, ac-
cept their overthrow very defiaDtly. They
cling to for1orn hopes of schism, and insist
on lacking their faith to the skirts of their
Bishops gowns, without regard to the de-
crees of Pope or Council. Thus they say
that they will understand the dogma as
their Bishops shall understand it, and some
even contend that it is not yet dogma at
all because not yet published.
Now it is rank heresy to claim for any
Bishop except the Pope an infallibility in
constituting either the, doctrines of the Bible
or the definitions concerning them made by
the Church. The Council and Pope have
defined that the infallibility of the Church
vests in the Pope, and it is mortal sin to
deny it, no matter how any Bishop may
choose to misconstrue it. His heresy does
not excuse ours. The following, from the
Correspondent, is sample of the language
to which we refer. 1t says that cit had
beforehand promised it's final submission to
the DEGREES of the Council, whatever they
might be; that it has now nothing to add,
nothing to withdraw from the precision of
this declaration that it does not recognize
in itself nor in any journal the right to in
terpret the DEGREES, but that it will be led
by the Bishops, whose duty it is to guide
their consciences."
1t gives its submission. to the decree of
the Council, but cannot interpret those de-
crees in this it will be led by the Bishops.
That is, its final submission is to its imme-
date Bishop or Bishops. If they choose
to say that the decree does not really mean
that the Pope is infallible, then the Core
This is the same old leaven of Gallican-
ism, preferring the National Church to the
Catholic Church. But such explosions can
not be considered as anything more than a
parting growl of the exercised spirit in his
fight. 1t is scarcely echoed in any quarter
of all those where he lately reigned SO
potently, and he has yielded the field with
out single struggle formidable enough to
| attract attention.

LITTLE SISTERS OF THE POoR.-To-day the

Kelerec, between Roman and Prieur streets,
will be the scene of an interesting reanion. At
noon a banquet will be given to the old and

people of all denominations recognize in this
institution one of the most benevolent features
of true charity. Tho regular patrons of the

the old men and the gentlemen on the female
benefciaries. The house will be open to the
public at large to afford them an opportunity
of seeing for themselves the goofi these bene

The Rev. DR.. Robinson, in the Congregational
ist, gives sorry picture of Protestant missions
abroad. He says: "In poor Florence seven
factions stand belligerently facing each other,
viz: the Waldenses, two Episcopal enterprises,
Dr. Van Nests congregation, Ferrettis schools,
Mr. Langdon, and the Mission of the American
Foreign and Christian Union, besides both the
Scotch and the English Presbyterians, and the
Plymouth brethren. Here is spectacle for
the capital of Italy! How edifying the new
lights must be to that superstitious, priest
ridden people!

WHITE ABBEY, KILDARE.-The Feast of
our Lady of Mount Carmel, a special feast
among the Carmelites, was kept with all
possible solemnity by the Carmelites of
White Abbey, Kildare. There was n very
large and fashionable congregation, in
GLIDING many of the clergy of the diocese.
High Mass was sung by the Rev. j. Whit
ley, assisted by the Rev. NJ. Kinsella as
deacon, and Rev. NJ. McNally as sub-dea-
con. After the gospel the Rev. T. Sheridan
preached an eloquent sermon from the text,
:. Ouia fecit n,ihi magma qui potens est ct
saHctuy,s noa,en ejus." In the course of the
sermon the preacher gave short history
of the Carmelite Order in Ireland. He
fixed the date of their arrival in the year
1879. From Dublin they went to Kildare,
and then spread themselves throughout the
length and breadth of the land. After 300
years there came sad and fearful change !;
dreadful storm swept across the Church
of Ireland, and for many long year her
history is to be written in letters of blood,

rnartyred children. Those foreign people

"PERE" HYAcINrnE.-The Able 10y
son (late Pere Hyacinthe) affords q melan
eholy example of the depths of folly and
blasphemy into which a mind, once noble,
which "fell the angels" can fall. In q
receptly-published letter on the doAmatic
definition, he asks whether Catholics are
bound by the Councils decreef He add
mits that authority is the principle of the
Church, and then asserts that it is, there
fore, all the more necessary to distinguish
between an apparent and a real authority,
between blind and rational submission.
Having thus insinuated that he is the real
authority to whom all are to offer rational
submission, he proceeds, in Ercles vein, to
"protest against the pretended dogma of
Papal Infallibility as it is defined in the
decree of the Roman Council" and this on
the strange ground that he is Catholic
and that he desires to remain one. With
the Church Times, the Rock, the Record, the
Church Rerie,c and kindred organs, he will
, not "admit as obligatory on those of the
faith doctrine unk nOwn to the whole of
ecclesiastical antiquity, disputed. in the
present day by. numerous and eminent
theologians, and which implies, not a
regular development, but radical change
in the constitution of the Church, and the
unalterable rule of her faith" Being a
Christian, and desiring to remain one, he
refuses that honor to the Vicar of Christ
which has been his in the eyes of the Church
since the words "Tu es Petrus" were
uttered by the lips of Him 4" who spake aa
never man spake." This h4nor the ex.
Carmelite friar protests against from hii
soul as being nearly divine, and as being
paid to a man who is presented to oul
faith had almost said to our worship
as being uniting in his person both a do
minion, which is repugnant to the spirit o
the Gospel, OF which, inc is the minister
and an infaliihility which is repngnant t,
the clay of which he is moulded like us all. ;

t" 1ntemperance will hardly "pass
muster" The subject is well conceived,
but lacks care in composition, and requires
more thought in working up. Too many
words and lines are introduced for the sake
of rhyme alone. This never fails to mar
verse. Every word should seem to be
essentially part of, and indispensable to
a composition whether poetry or prose.
