ARCHBISHOP OF TUAM.-We take pleas
ure in transferring to our columns the fol-
lowing tribute to his Grace's labors in the
truly national cause of Celtic literature.
The compliment is all the more valuable as
it appears in q Dublin journal (Saunders'
Nears Letter. which differs from the Arch
bishop in religion, and also, to a great ex-
tent, in politics:
Every scholar and every true lover of
Irish lore (says the writer) will readily ac-
knowledge what Archbishop McHale has
done for the promotion of Celtic literature.
Is it not curious that, with one or two
brilliant exceptions, in Ireland both the
Irish language and the iuestimahly valuable
interests of Celtic learning should have
be en- allowed so miserably to languishq AS
our legendary literature has been almost
totally neglected, while it has been careful
ly and successfully cultivated by other
countries not qnite so well supplied in this
department. There is not probably a sub
ject that conld be better placed in the
hands of weli-informed and comprehensive
scholars han Celtic literature. DR.. McHale,
it is we'll known, cherishes very profound
sympathy in this direction. Besides theo-
logical works the laboIious Archbishop has
found time for the prosecution of his favorite
study. IS Il proof of his affection towards
Ireland, through her literature, the Arch
bishop has rendered the great Homeric
epic into his native language, as well as
{" Moore's Melodies

THE DOMINICAN rDRAwING.-The Do
minican drawing, which has been talked of
and written of SO much, came off at the
new Hbernia Hall, on Sixth street, Louis
vile, Ky, at the time indicated. There
was a very large attendance, and the audi
ence was pleasantly entertained by an ex-
cellent band of music.
About o'clock the coupons of the tickets
We're placed in a large wheel and thor
oughly shaken. Michael Shelly, little
orphan boy, was chosen to draw the tickets,
and, with his arms bare to his shoulders, he
plunged them in for somebody's fortune.
The first ticket drawn was number SI65.
and was owned by Catharine Priest, a poor
woman, living in New Orleans. 1t was sold
by NJ. Lyons, one of the brothers at the
convent. The second ticket was number
5000, and was owned by Mr.. Edward
Holbrook, q wealthy tobacco merchant of
this city. 1t was sold by Miss E. T.
O'Grady. This ended the drawing, and
the audience dispersed, feeling satisfied
that it was in every way fair and impartial.
The Fathers sold between fifteen and six
teen thousand tickets, and as will be seen,
did not realize the value of the houses,
Which are assessed at sixteen thousand
dollars.

We are pleased to observe that a meet
ing has been held at Strabane, in the north
of Ireland, to consider the best means of
preventing the recurrence of the party con-
filcts. There were present both Catholic
and Protestant clergymen. The parish
priest stated that he had from the altar
condemned the proceedings of the Catho-
lie band, and had requested them to desist
from being parties to any future distur-
Dances. He believed they would obey
him, and he hoped that the Protestant
band would receive the same advice. The
Protestant clergyman proposed resolution
requesting the magistrates to issue an or
der directing the constabulary to prevent
the bands from playing in the streets He,
however, very illogically said that he
could not understand why offence should
be taken at a blast out of trumpet.
Upon this the London Unirerse OBJ
serves:
Let the reverend gentleman Just step
over to Berlin and give - few trumpet-
blasts to the air of the Mdrsealaise, or let
him play Der Yacht am Rhine in the
staeets of Paris, and we don't think he
would be very long alive to indulge in con-
lectures as to offence being taken. Human
nature is almost the same everywhere, and
the playing of tunes which are known TO
be intended to insult does give offence.
even though they be only blown through n
trumpet. We hope that Catholics and
Protestants in Ireland will remember that
they have common country, and that it is
full time the watchwords and the party
tunes which have so long divided them
into hostile camps should cease from the
land for ever. Lord Erne may las he did
the other day at Enniskillen) cry out that
8 the Orangemen will be the salvation of
Ireland" We hope that he will soon be
found sending forth his dismal shrek
without its receiving cloud applause"

NATURALIZATION THE Archbishop
An excellent example was set on Thursday
last by the Most Rev. Archbishop, N. J.
Perche, who procured his naturalization
papers through the Second District Court,
as follows:
State of Louisiana-City of New Or
leans.-Personally came and appeared, Ma
poleon Joseph Perche, who, being duly
sworn, doth say-That in the year 1888, at
Bardatown, il the State of Kentucky, be-
fore. the Circuit Court of Nelson County of
said State, he made his declaration of in
tention to become citizen of the United
States, in due form of law. That he can
not find and has not now in his possession
the Certificate OF his said declaration, and
the same being of record in another State,
and said record being now more than thirty
years old, affiant might be subjected to
ruinous and vain delays if required to
search for the same.

BARBARIAN WARFARE.-We have lately
neard (says Che Dublin Nation) much Of
German culture and refinement. We
nave pecn treated, msque ad nauseam, to
disqulsltlons upon the German love for.
and appreciation of the beautiful in nature
ana In art. But several acts of the Ger
mans IL IN the present campaign belle their
natterlng representations, and prove those
men to be not essentially different in
character from their ferocious and blood
tnirsty ancestors. We do not allude to in
9lvlduai acts of pillage, outrage and muir
,uer committed by the German soldiery in
its progress through France, for such ex-
cesses are, unfortunately, the usual attend
anus upon hostile invasion: thonoh
wnen we are told that these soldiers are
not mercenarles, but citizen soldiers fight
ing Tor Fatherland, we should expect that
even such acts would be conspicuous nv
their absence. We refer to acts of another
kind. The siege of Strasburg is being car
rled on IN truly barbarous manner. The
iortihcatlons are left untouched, while the
town itself is being burned to the ground.
The Cathedral-one of the noblest speci-
mensof medieval architecture the cele-
DRAFTED astronomical clock; the libraries
and museums; these are the objects at
winch the "civllized" Germans mostly direct
thelr murderous fire. The Germans of the
present day may be eminent in the walks
ot literature and science; but in destroying
the museums, library and Cathedral Of
they have done an irreparable
injury to the interests of civilization, they
rave established u claim to rank amongst
ne most Wanton and barbarous of invaders,
ma they have proved that they, like their
eroclous ancestors of the forest, hesitate
lot to destroy in single day what it may
AVE cost centuries to build up

there are two Schmidts to one Smith, the

We do not for . moment favor property
qualification for electors generally. Every
man ought to vote, but every man ought to

would be in proportion to his taxes, for
those officials who will have the disposal of
them. Thus, as to the two gentlemen

SIND. AS there are two branches in every
popular assembly in this country, the more
numerous branch of it could always be
elected on the present principle of equal
votes. This would be just also, for there
are rights of man to be regulated besides
those connected with revenue. The gen.
eral laws of property, and those affecting
life, liberty and the social relations, equally
interest all men.
1t appears equally natural, however, that
in the power which raises and disburses
revenue, citizens ought to be represented
in proportion to their taxation. This is
but development of the great principle
of representation which produced our Revo-
lutionary war. Equally natural does it ap-
pear that officers, like judges, clerks, She
riffs, health officers, and others, who must
perform functions of some special science
Or art, should be chosen by experts in
that specially, instead of the public at
large. In that case, and by making such
offices tenable during good behavior, many
Of the evils so prominent in our present
system might be expected to disappear.
