The morning star and Catholic messenger. [volume] (New Orleans [La.]) 1868-1881, 1870-07-17

a. w. SKARDoN, ESQ., Among the arrival
Mt Long Branch, We notice the name Of th
senior partner Of the famous Fourth Distric
grocery establishment announced. That wa
tering place is this season the headquarters o
all the fashionable and prominent people o
the land, among whom are President Gran
and family. We sincerely wish our friend may
have pleasant time of it, and return among
MS with renewed energy and health. The 1as
season was an arduous one, calling forth al
the strength of the principals and the resour
ces Of large corps of assistants, to answer
the immense demands in their business. While
seeking this necessary relaxation, Mr. 8. will
not be unmindfnl of his friends and patrons 81
homo, for he intends visiting the great centres
| Of business and making arrangements for for
warding to his house the coming season such
q stock a. will add immensely to the fame OF
| the establishment corner Of Jackson and Rous-
| seau streets
The most authentic information has been re-
ceived, that at the present moment there are
in London no less than seven clergymen of the
Established Church who are about to seek ad-
mission into the Catholic Church. If this is
true-and there seems no reason whatever to
doubt 1.-THE expected PRONUNCIATION of the
dogma of infallibility does not seem to work
any very bad effect upon the minds Of those
who are still outside the Church, but rather
the contrary.
PROTESTANT CHURCH PIc-NIcs.-The In
dependent condemns pic-Dics, and states
that the amusements at some Of them
" are irresistibly corrupting." It says:
Certainly, if "Copenhagen" and other
rude, kissing, lust-exciting plays cannot be
dispensed with by the young men and
with the picnic. We have seen Sunday
school pic-nics at which old and young en-
gagged alike in this rude and, to put it
mildly, indicate bear-play. Such a BAG
canadian rOut is ten times worse than q
ireman's ball, and will put more evil in
young mans veins than years instruc-
ton in Sunday school can get out. If Sun
day school pic-nics are to be the foes of
maidenly deiicacy and manly self-respect,
let MS have none of them.
DREADFUL, MY BRETHREN.-The London
Register publishes news which ought to
make Newdegate and Whalley question
Mr.. Gladstone, and get suitable explana-
tions. It is as follows:
''Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and
Princess of Wales have been living this
last week at house called Cooper's Hill,
near old Windsor, formerly the property Of
Mr.. Albert Grant, of Credit Foncier renown.
Now, Cooper's Hill is next door to Beau
mont Lodge, the celebrated Jesuit College
lin fact, the gardens of the two properties
are only separated by hedge. Who knows
what may have happened during the past
weekf It is quite possible that the heir to
the throne of England and all his family
may have been made Papists Of. AT any
rate the Premier ought to be taken to task
for allowing his Royal Highness to run
such terrible risk. The members for
North Warwickshire and Peterborough
ought certainly to look to the matter. We
are told that the Prince was absent in the
garden of C0oper's Hill for half an hour on
the morning Of Wednesday last. Where
was the Father Superior Of Beaumont
Lodge during that time
