Among the American officers who served
in the late war in Europe, st. George
Tucker Mason, of Virginia, a son of the
late John Y. Mason, formerly United
States Minister to France, has been pro-
NOTED for distinguished gallantry. After
having served under General Lee through
the Confederate war, lie obtained COM
mission as sub-lieutenant in the army of
France, and was ordered to the Legion Ell
rangere, in Algiers, where he remained I'M
til last October, his regiment being among
those held in reserve. After the battle of
Sedan his command was called into active
service, first participating in the second
battle of Orleans, at which the French
troops retook the town. He participated
also in the third battle of Orleans. the bat
ties of Artenan, and of 7Beauvilliors, and
other minor engagements. AT the last battle
of Orleans he recei yed a dangerous wound
in the forehead, and at Artenau he was
twice wounded. He also received a wound
in one of the minor battles in which he was
engaged. His injuries were not, however,
of a permanent character. For his gallant
and distinguished services he has been re-
warded with the rank of captain in the
fifteenth army corps of France.

| AN INTERESTING IRISH RELIC.-A cor
respondent of the Catholic Times Oliver
pooD writes:
There is preserved in the Carmelite
church, Dublin, very interesting sample
of ancient sculpture-a statue of the vir-
gin, with the infant Jesus in her arms, life
size, carved in Irish oak. The style of this
vet it has considerable merit. There are
some circumstances relative to its preser-
walton repeated by tradition, which may
probably interest the reader. 1t was origi-
nally the distinguished ornament of st.
Mary's Abbey, at the north side of Dublin,
where it was not less an object of religious
veneration than of admiration for it's
beauty (see Archdalps Monasticon). Its
glory, however, was but of short duration.
The storm of the Reformation came. The
noble Abbey, to which it appertained, was
given to the Earl of Ormond for stables
for his train, and the beautiful statue was
condemned, and as it was supposed, con-
signed to the flames. One half OF it was
actually burnt, but it was that moiety
which, when placed in a niche, is not much
missed. The other part was carried by
devout person to a neighboriDg inn yard,
where, with its face buried in the ground,
and the hollow trunk appearing uppermost,
it was appropriated for concealment and
safety to the ignoble purpose of hog
trough. In this situation it remained until
the tempest had subsidized and the rage of
the Iconoclasts had passed away, when it
was restored to it's orr ginal use in the hum
BILE chapel of st. Michan's parish MARY s
lane), which had grown up from the ruiDs
of the great monastery to which the statue
had originally belonged. But during the
long night of its slumber in obscurity, a
great change had taken place in the spirit
of the times-more dangerous to its safety
than the adherence of the Iconoclasts.
No longer an object of admiration to any,
except the curious antiquary, it was con-
sidered of little value by its owners.
About forty years ago, the ancient silver
crown which adorned the Virgins head
was sold for it's intrinsic value as old plate,
and melted down, and the statue itself
would most probably have followed the
fate of it's coronet had it not been rescued
for triaing sum by the prior of the con-
vent (Father Spratt), in which it is at pres.
emit deposited. The statue stands at the
epistle side of the high altar.

Error with Regard to tho Ex-PontiAeal zouave
Regiment

We meet frequently in the newspapers
and in kilograms with notices on, and
achievements of, the Pontifical Zouaves in
France. It is we'll to correct an error
given rise to. The term " Poptifical is
here misapplied one. 1t may lead to the
inference that in the service of France
there is q corps of Papal soldiers, or that
corps of Papal soldiers, on leaving Rome,
entered the service Of France. There are
NO Pontifical troops in the service of that
country. The regiment Of Papal Zouaves
was disbanded on the fall of Rome, and
those who composed it-Dutch, French,
Belgians, Russians, Canadians, English, etc.
-dispersed to their homes. The French
were embarked, after the diebandment,
que, lying of Civita Vecchia, to be incor-
pOrated, on arriving in France, in the
French army. None of the other national
tiles in the Papal Zouaves took service in
France. Officers and men returned to their
respective Netherlands. We shall now ex-
is given to corps existing actually in
France, and which has 30 highly distin-
guished itself for heroic courage during the
| war. and which is to-day the mainstay OF
the Versailles Government and tho party
of order in France. At the time of the ar
rival of the Pontifcal Zouaves in France,
| owing to the disorder and confusion reign
ing every where, it was considered expedl-
ent to profit of their efficient organization
and their existing cadus, as a nucleus of
| the corps designed to be created at that
time under the name of the Voluntarles
de PFuert," and from which part of France
Lieutenant Colonel de Charrette Colonel
Aller, q Swiss, was the commanding officer
of the Zouaves Regiment) and the majority
of the French Zouave officers resided. The
uniforms was popular amongst the lovers
of order in France, and families of good
standing placed under the necessity of
sacrificing their sons on the altar of country
preferred them to be under the command
of men of such high repute to that of
coming under the mob lot-men. The uni
form Of the Pontifical Zouaues was slightly
modified. This fact has led the public to
believe that the regiment of Pontifical
Zouaves is in the service Of France, where
as it is but the former French Zouaves that
are in that service.
1t is a very erroneous impression. The
subjects of France and of Prussia were, by
the law of consumption, obliged to serve in
the last war. In the Pontifcal Zouaves
were many Prussians and Germans, thus
arrayed by the force Of circumstances
against their comrades.
None of the officers of the Papal army
took service in the French or Prussian
armies, nnless subjects of the contending
powers. Fatality alone could compel them
to make use against one another of the
arms they had taken mp for the defence of
the Common Father of all.--N. Y. freeman.

The Heroes Of Xontmartre.

As walked under the Column of Lib
erty in the Place de Ia Bastile yesterday
evening (says the Paris correspondent OF
the London Standard), was attracted by
a group of some forty or fifty Mobiles roar
chant music of the Kyrie Eleison," which
is so we'll known in all the churches
throughout France. Many were half in
toxicated, and had drunkenly decorated
themselves with faded flowers of immor-
telles all wore sprays of the yellow wreath
in their coats, and some danced about in
women's caps and bonnets. AS l drew
near was Mortified to hear the blasphem-
GUS parody that was substituted for the
original sacred words. Among other things
the name of Garibaldi was used instead of
that of the Divinity. They were following
and surrounding a young soldier OF She
covered was on his way to church, and
whom they were mocking in this deyilish
way for being SO unlike themselves. They
were of the very lowest and most bruta!
class of the men who are now the heroes OF
Montmartre, and who, when not actually
town and manifest their patriotism by see-
ing q spy in every respectfully dressed
foreigner, bullying women, and occasion
ally drowning men in the Seine. They
followed him from street to street, hootlng,
whistling and jeering at him, and never
ceasiDg their impious singing. AT times l
was afraid they would attack him, for he
was quite alone, and the valor of these
DULLES is most conspicuous when it can
shine with impunity. But though young,
the soldier was a grandly built fellow, with
massive shoulders and the arms and legs of
north-cOuntry wrestler; grave, hand
some face, and an honest blue eye that
would be afraid to look no man in the face
when he spoke to him. He walked along
with a firm, swinging stride, and seemingly
taking no more notice of them than if they
had been so many tOads. But at last one
rufian, more daring than the rest, came
close to him, and shouting out something
too blasphemous to repeat, half showed him
young soldier turned, and straight from
the shoulder, like bullet from Chassepot
and with the whole weight of the body,
sent him staggering against the corner of a
stone wall, from whence he reeled helpless
and insensible into the gutter. And not
one of the drunken Reds moved finger to
avenge him, but SUNK back dismayed at
this unexpected result. They were but
fair REPRESENTATIVES of the cowardice of
this class. For moment l thought the
boy was about to speak to them and let
them have it in a torrent of contempt and
indignation, but to my great admiration he
only said one word to them, :" CanaiLe !"
and then these gentlemen of MOntmartre,
these heroes of liberty and martyrs of OPP
preston, cowed by one man, and not
meeting with any sympathy from an
other crowd that came up meanwhile,
executed rapid and anything but digni-
fed movement to the rear. These are pre-
cisely the individuals who for the moment
hold the entire population of France in I'M
easiness.

ing, he observed the bees issuing from one OF
the hives, and bearing the defunct body OF
of twelve yards. He followed them closely,
and noted the care with hich they secured q
convenient hole at the side OF the gravel walk,
the tenderness with which they committed the
body, head downward, to the earth, and the
solicitude with which they pushed two little
stones, doubtless in memOriam.' Their task
being ended, they paused for about q moment,
perhaps to drop over the grave of their friend

their goods in writing. Agreements OF all
