OBITUARY.
The Archbish on Of Quebec.


On Friday last the Most Rev. Charles Francis Ball
largeon. n. D., Roman Catholic Archbishop OF Que
bee, died in that city Of dropsy Of the heart ct the
age OF seventy-two. He was born In 1IeS, and
entered the priesthood about the year 1880. For
many years before his elevation to the Archbshoprc
he was Coadjutor Bishop, and performed all the
most arduous duties OF the archdiocese. His labors
were much increased by the advanced age and In
nrmities OF his superior, and when he was called
upon to assume full control OF the archdiocese he
had full knowledge OF all its details that particu
larry fitted him for filling the position Of Archbishop.
The Arcbbishoprc OF Quebec embraces the districts
OF Quebec, Beance, Montmagny, Kamouraska, and
part OF Saguensay. 1t contains 156 churches 20
mission chapels university, Is colleges, 20 con-
vents, hospitals and asylums. There are also In
the diocese six religious ORDERS and the Archbishop
directs the labors of 49 eccesastcs and 1852 clergy
men. The Catholic population Of the diocese Is
365, 900,
About two months ago the Archbishop was seized
with sudden illness while upon a pastoral visit,
and remained in delicate health until he sank sud-
denly on Friday last. He was much beloved, and
the news Of his death was received with profound
sorrow throughout his archdiocese. The body now
lies In state in the Archiepscopa Chapel at Quebec
from which it will be buried tomorrow.

nalist Of distinction, is announced. He born in
1911, and received good classical education. The

Martin Theatre. He aiterward obtained subordi-
nate Government position, and in 1s47 he established
an Independent paper entitled II ReSorgimento In
1852 he was editor Of the Emancipation, and after

HEAVY FORGERY.

Attempted syylndle IN View Yorh-A Forged
Check for S77,OOO.
The New York EUening Post of Saturday
says:-
forged check for s77 900 was discovered in
Wall street yesterday afternoon. Some days ago
a man named j. r. Livingston bought from
Wells, Fargo & Co. 100000 worth of Kansas
Railroad bonds at 7?!19, giving in exchange a
check for 81, 900, which purported to be certi-
fed by Hallgarten IL Co. This check was de-
posted in the Continental Bank, and in the
course of exchanges came to the Park Bank.
The teller of the latter bank discovered that
the check was. forged, and it was returned as
such to the Continental Bank. Mr.. Timpson,
the cashier of the latter bank investigated the
case. and discovered that Livingston had bor-
rowed upon the bonds $4,000 from the Com
mercial Warehouse Company, who had given
him two checks of $25 600 each on the Park
Bank and on the Manhattan Company. He
deposited these checks with Caldwell S Co.,
and ordered them to buy $50, 600 worth of fve-
twenties. When this order had been executed
Livingston called for the bonds and asked for
the balance in money. He was identified by o
broker named Chadwick, but Caldwell & Co.
demanded an identification from the Commercial
Warehouse Company. At this point Mr.. Timp-
son exposed his real character, but unfortu-
natey no arrest was made.

publican party on the previous Tuesday.
That a portion of the police force, instead Of
thwarting from the outset every move
ment that tended to facilitate
such nefarious design, became
aiders and abettors of the rioters is evident
from the facts heretofore published in our
local columns, and we understand that it can
also be proven by highly respectable wit
ness that one policeman gave revolver to
one of Che rioters to help him break up the
meeting of the Return Judges. What oc-
Cured in that meeting, which should have
been as sacred from violent intrusion as our
highest courts, is now matter of public noto-
riety, and if any new evidence was needed
to confirm the accounts given by the re-
porters, it would be furnished by the statement
of one of the Judges of the Supreme Court
that on the morning after the meeting the
room in which it had been held was "a
wreck, the furniture, books, and fixtures
having been used as weapons" If we are to
pass under the rule of rowdyism and ruffian-
ism, there is no surer way to establish the
unchallenged ascendancy of the champions of
force and fraud than to permit them TO
invade with impunity one temple of justice
after another, until the edicts they con-
coct in gambling houses and thieves
dens become the supreme law of
the city. We should be thankful, however,
that tardy warrants have at last been issued
for the arrest of men charged with such
dangerous crime. This step has been accom-
panied by the issue of a warrant for the
arrest of William B. Mann, who was present
at the meeting of the Return Judges at the
invitation of that body, and whose imputed
offense consists in urging one of the assailed
officers of the election to defend him.
self. AS the whole difficulty will,
we presume, be made the subject of tho
rough legal investigation, we do not wish
to dwell upon it here, or to attempt to influ-
ence public sentiment, but in the interests of
the people we cannot refrain from protesting
against any and all attempts to put in the
same category the offense of men who at
tempt to riotously break up one of the most
important civil proceedings connected with
republican government and the action of an
official or a counsel who, when wantonly as
sailed while endeavoring to perform peace
able, proper, and necessary public act, obeys
the great law of self-preservation.

The New York Tribune publishes a list of
subscriptions to the Free Trade League since
the first of February last, amounting to more
than forty thousand dollars, more than nine
tenths of which was contributed by foreign
bankers, representatives of foreign steamship
lines, or importers of foreign goods. 1t is
eminently appropriate that men who are so
thoroughly identified with foreign interests
should furnish the sinews for the war against
American industry.

PRESIDENT AND
FENIANS.
THE
THE

The pardon of the three Fenian prisoners
confined in the Auburn Penitentiary by the
President is queer commentary upon his neu-
trality proclamation issued few days ago.
In that the President warns all violators of
the neutrality laws that they must expect no
mercy, while by his pardon of the three mis-
creants above named he gives the lie to his
own words and indicates as plainly as posi-
BILE that Irishmen, at least when they engage
in armed raids upon Canada, may expect
every consideration from the Executive, and
that their punishment, if they receive any at
all, will be merely of a nominal character.
No penalties were enforced upon the offen-
ders in the great Fenian raid and the affair
of last summer was an indication that the
leaders of the bands of violators of the law
who get up annual attacks upon Canada con-
sidered themselves as secure from punish
ment, if not from interference, on the part of
Government. The second raid was not only
a violation of the law, but it was an insult to
Government of the grossest character, and
the men who organized and commanded it
should have been made to suffer in proper
tion to the magnitude of their crime. Now
they and their followers will laugh at the
President and his proclamations, and
the Jail delivery that has followed
fast upon the Executive announcement
of an intention to enforce the laws in all
their integrity will most surely be taken by
the Fenian leaders and their deluded followers
as an indication that the President is, so far
as they are concerned, afraid to put his
threats into execution. The warlike apdor
of the Fenian organization can undoubtedly
be cooled very considerably sufficiently so at
least to prevent it carrying on war against
Great Britain and Canada, with our territory
as base of operations, if such men as Starr,
Mann, and Thompson are tried, convicted,
locked up in penitentiaries, and employed in
making shoes for term of years, with the
clear understanding that they need not
hope to get out until the sentences
imposed upon them are carried out
but no such understanding as this
will ever be impressed upon the Fenian mind
so long as the President issues proclamations
like that of last Friday on one day, and par
dons for the very offenses he condemns on the
next. Not only will the Fenians be encour-
aged by this last performance of President
Grant, but the French, Germans, and Cubans
will certainly conclude that he does not mean
what he says, and that if they are prevented
from extending substantial aid to their
friends, it will be because they are not able
to command as much political influence as
the Irish, and an injury of the most decided
character will be done the Republican party
by holding it responsible for the crooked
ways of him who they have right to con-
slider its representative man.
