APPARITIoN OF ST. JOSEPH AT AUTUN.
Without, of course, guaranteeing its truth,
the following is given from an authentic
private letter Our Convent here was at
tackled one evening by band of Republi-
cans. The nuns asked the Rev. Mother
what they should do. Go to bed, all of
you, and trust to St. Joseph's protection
They obeyed but the noise of the assail-
ants outside, attempting to force an en-
trance, would allow of no one to sleep.
Meanwhile the superioress, with one of the
nuns, remained praying before the image
of st. Joseph. Once she went to look how
that an opening had been made in the Con-
vent wall, and that one man was already
through, while others were preparing to
follow. She returned to st. Joseph with
renewed fervor and confidence. Soon all
| was quiet, and finding that the assailants
had taken their departure, she, too, with
her attendant nun, retired to rest. Early
| In the following morning a lady who lived
| in a house opposite the Convent fastened
to visit the nuns. She said she had scarcely
been able to wait through the night with
| out informing them of what she had SEEM
She had been greatly alarmed by the mob
that had gathered about the Convent, and
had watched their proceedings from her
| window. just as the ruffians had made a
breach in the wall, and were on the point
OF rushing in, a person of noble appear
ance was seen approaching, and q great
| light accompanied him. The miscreants
no sooner perceived him than they made off
at full speed, and never returned. The
| Rev. Mother made no reply, but led her
visitor to the image of St. Joseph, and the
lady instantly recognized the noble stranger

The Church and Forms of Government

There are few subjects upon which ordi-
nary men make greater mistakes than upon
that of the Church and her decisions re-
garding civil Government. We take it for
granted that the commonplace every day
Protestant settles it at once in ''that thing
he calls his mind" that the Catholic
Church and its chief pastor, as a matter of
course, approve in the first place of abso-
lutte despotism, as being the best, and that
next to this they sanction all those systems
of Government which approach the most
nearly to unimpeded tyranny. Will our
Protestant fellow countrymen believe US
when we assert, therefore, that the catho-
lie Church has no recognized theory on the
subject of the forms of civil Government
We hardly dare, hope SO much, and yet
what we say is simply the truth. The
Church is upon the earth, for the assertion
of Gods prerogative, for the protection of
the moral order, for the salvation of the
souls of men things outside this her realm,
and that do not directly or indirectly bear
influence upon her work. are to her mat
tiers of the purest indifference. Having

A BELL1cosE PARsoN. Rector of
Merthyer, Wales, must be remarkable
chap. In sermon on the capitulation of
Paris, he went off into moral bysteries,
thus:
God forgive me for saying so, do not
think it would have been safe for that great
instrument of Divine Providence that
high and puissant monarch-the holy EN-
peror of all the Germans, or any other
butcher of his species, to have been near
me at that moment. lido not think could
have restrained myself from doing him
some bodily harm. I felt tigerish, ogreish,
and could hardly tell what might have
happened when confronted with tyrant.
Addressing himself directly to the terri
bic Germans, he says:
Come on, then, if you dare, we would
much rather you did not come on, and it
would be better for yourselves if you did
not. We would prefer to live in peace
will that you should come over, it is only
right we should submit, and say, " We are
ready for you" You have conquered
France, you say. Well, let that pass and
90 home. You had better not try to con-
Quer us. You will not And us 80 easy to
conquer. We are nation of free people,
governed by a free constitution. We have
not been tyranniEed over for twenty years
by a corrupt and Imperial dynasty. That
is the reason you conquered France. Inn
perialism has been a dry rot to her. We
are true British hearts of oak. Such para
sites and insects and worms have no effect
upon our timbers. Go, therefore, go home
in peace. Go, get your ill of saveloys and
German sausages. You will want some
| thing to recruit your inner man after this
Gallo victory. Go to; go to your pork
and Your black puddings. Away you big
bullies, you have had human blood enough
now to last another century.

The .Revue Cntholique, or theological,
| literary and scientific magazine OF the ca,
tholic University Of Louvain, keeps well
up to its early promise. The artlcles are re
ability proved frst-rate, not by class
standard merely, but by the hard competi-
ton of the wide world. This is what Eng
lish Catholics, too, must begin to aim at,
if our class ia to win and keep respect
among the men of modern Thought. A
recent number of the Louvain journal cor, con
tains the series of articles on Fossil Man,
by NJ. de la Vallee Poussin, who has taken
note of the discoveries and sagacious de-
auctions from fossil remains, made by Dean
auckland, Sir Charles Lyell and Professor
Huxley, and of all the labors that continen-
tai Swans besides have expended on the
same field. He shows how oil ascertained
facts about primHval man either directly
confirm the Mosaic history, or else over
throw theories raised in opposition to it.
Thus fossil human bones found all over the
world exhibit precisely the same varieties
of physical conformation known to exist at
present among the contemporaneous races
of mankind. The skulls found IN the very
lowest diluvian levels of the Valley OF the
Seine have their sutures quite as comph-
Gated as those of the modern Parisians
while the weapons and other rude lmPle-
ments of flint of the tscut stone," or archie
olithic epoch found in great quantities IN
the more recent <marl-beds and in peat
bogs of Denmark, Belgium, France and
Italy, and at Santorin, in Greece, are pre-
cisely similar to the stone spear-heads,
hatchets and knives found in the hands of
the aborigines of New Caledonia and New
Zealand. Hence the deduction is obvious
that, in spite of Darwinian theories, the
human race has not undergone any change
in it's physical conformation since an epoch
long anterior to history. The Revue o.
khoi;one also contains among other interest
ing articles, one on the Protestant sects of
the United States, the writer Of which has
laid himself under no obligations to such
superficial observers as Mr.. Hepworth
Dixon, but has seen for himself and judged
as q Catholic about what he saw.

MERIT REWARDED. During the long,
weary months in which that Gordon of iron
was drawn around beleagured Paris, and
when shot and shell were vomited forth, in
such terrible profusion, against its brave
defenders, and, later on, against the hap
less city itself, raining death and destruc-
ton on those who would oppose the devas-
tation of the German Vandals, none
showed truer devotion or displayed more
heroic valor than Frere Philippe and his
band of Brothers of the Christian Schools.
Bravery and heroism not alone appertain
to the mobile or the uniformed soldier of
the line, but is common property, inasmuch
as it may be found in the humblest indi-
vidual, and in other capacities than the
soldiers trade, which, gloss it over as we
may, is that of killing. 1t was in the dis
charge of the noblest of all duties-that of
mercy-the heroism of the Brothers was
displayed. On the battle field, amid the
hurting of shot and shell, and when death
was sown broadcast, these devoted men,
intent only on their mission, pursued their
labors undismayed. How many thousand
of poor, wounded soldiers have they not
rescued from an inevitable death and on
how many other thousands have they not
bestowed the last sad rights of a Christian
burial. All France rings with their praise,
and the correspondents of the English
journals in Paris have not failed to record
the fortitude displayed by them under the
most terrible and most trying circumstan-
ces. The French Government, recognizing
this, has paid deserved tribute to the
Order, in the person of Frere Philippe, the
Superior General, on whom, according to
the Official Journal, of the 10th inst, it has
conferred the Cross of the Legion of Honor.
We may mention that Brother Philippe ia
seventy eight years of age, and that, not
withstanding which, he was present at
every engagement around Paris, and dis
| played as much energy and activity in the
| discharge of his sacred duty as the mos
youthful of the Brothers under his charge
The decoration is grateful tribute, and
shows that France still knows how tt
gracefully reward deserving merit.-Liuer

Cheering Facts for the Bilious.

Every day demonstrates more clearly that
liver complaint, in all its distressing forms,
can be controlled and cured without difficult
ty or inconvenience. Its an obstinate dis
ease, but its obstanacy is not proof against
the pertinacious, remedial and restorative
operation Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.-
That genial corrective cOmpels the organ to
do its duty. 1t must secrete regularly and
BEAUTIFULLY under the influence OF Bitters.
Their action brings it back from state Of
rebellion into perfect harmony with the laws
of health. If there is costiyeness, it disap-
pears; if there is side-ache or back ache, it
ceases; if the skin and the whites of the eyes
are tinged with superAuous bile, they recov.
er their natural hue; if the appetite is gone, it
returns; if the digestion is impaired, it is re-
stored; in brief, whatever the symptoms of
the complaint may be, and whatever the
phase has assumed, a cure is certain. Such
are the uniform effects of this preparation
where bilious disease has been already de-
veloped; but in cases where there is merely
constitutional tendency to liver complaint
it may be prevented throughout life by the
regular use, in small quantities, of this pal
atable antidote. These are proven facts
and should be seriously pOndered-or, rath-
Their, they should be promptly acted upon
by all persons Of bilious habit
