BRITISH PoLITENEss.-It Is stated that
on Good Friday the police found it neces-
sary to direct tue removal of n "grand
stand" erected at Chisefhurst to enable
excnrsionists at a small charge to witness
the Emperor Louis Napoleon proceeding to
church. With every respect for excursion
ists whose refueness of manners ia beyond
dispute, we must say that this is going n
little too far. Fallen greatness is not Il
thing to be inspected by fiourishing small
ness from the top of a van improvised into
a grand stand, and greeted with the pop
ming of gin ger beer bottles. 1t would have
served these people perfectly right if they
had all been captured, placed in large
cage, and themselves inspected by the ex-
Emperor as specimens of British excursion.
lists To have his footsteps dogged and all
his movements watched by parcel of in
quisitive people who wilt not even let him
perform his de' otions in peace, must be
extremely painful to one who, above all
others, yearns for rest. His bitterest en-
emies will, at all events, admit that, in the
treatment he receives from his admirers

remonstrance is, of course, useless, but i
is evidently no joke for greatness to fal

THE FIRST OF MAY AT ST. ALPHoNsus'.-
The beautiful month of May-the brightest
month of the twelve, when all nature puts on
it's gayest robes, when the trees of the forest
are arrayed in their newborn foliage, and the
flowers in field and garden open their sweet
scented PETALS to the balmy air, resounding
with the melody of natures myriad songsters
the Church particularly devotes to the hon
oring of Mary, the Mother of God.
In the various churches, either on the first
day of the month on the last, there is a
grand ceremony in honor of the Virgin Mary,
consisting of procession of the societies of
children under her patronage, and the crown
ing of Mary, the "May Queen" of the Church.
On last Monday evening, the first of May, we
attended the ceremonies at st. Alphonsus'
Church, and, in truth we say it, we have never
seen more beautiful sight. About u hundred
little girls from four to ten years of age, i'll
snow hite dresses, and bearing baskets and
garlands of flowers, entered the church and
proceeding to the altar laid at the feet of their
heavenly Mother their floral offerings. The
ceremonies closed with Benediction of the
Most Blessed Sacrament, after which the chill
dren again formed in procession and marched
out, each little face bearing upon it u beam of
| Joy and an air of gladness at the part it had
taken i'll doing homage to its Queen.
The music on the occasion was exceedingly
beautiful and have never Il larger
congregation of the faithful within this mag
niticent church. We shall not attempt to
moralze over the difference between this mode
of spending May-day and that of INDUCING
ourselves and teaching our children to aban-
don themselves to the frivolous gaieties of the
ballroom; but if there be any among our
readers who have never seen such a ceremony
as took place last Monday evening ut st. AL
phonsus', we bid them fail not to attend on the
next occasion, and we are satisfied that a con-
vction of the greater propriety of this mode
of celebrating the first of May will follow.
In the Church of the immaculate Concep-
ton the crownIng of the Virgin Mary takes
place on the last day of the month, and is
usually of a very imposing nature.

THE EMPEROR OF RUSSIA AND THE JEWS.
A short time since, writes the Pail Mall
Gazette, it was repoI ted that the Emperor
of Russia, DESTROYS of bringing about such
an assimilation of the Jews in his dominion
with the rest of the people as that which
he imagined to exist III Germany, had
issued certain very foolish and oppressive
regulations as to the dress and particularly
the hair of his mail and female subjects be-
longing to the Jewish faith. Having "their
hair cut short and their coats long" would,
he calculated, make them fight like lions,
for it was chiefly the bravery displayed by
the Jewish soldiers in tue late war which
has inspired his Majesty with the sublime
notion. But on second thoughts these
measures, CALLING as they were, did not
seem to suffice. A new and more Cypress
i've, and at the same time utterly futile.
decree has emaHated from his Majesty,
ordering the Jews henceforth neither to
pray in Hebrew nor in Polish, but III
Russian. Anything more calculated tc
minions and more difficult to enforce can
not be imagined. Even apart from the fac
that no jew is by any religious law bount
to pray in synagogue-praying with {
congregation being merely recommended
and that u supervision of private devotion
would be rather troublesome task, lit
Majesty seems to forget that people nee'
not open their lips when they pray; an
whether the precentor sang in Timbucto
or in Sapscrit, the individual worshipe
| may always stick to his Hebrew, even l
those prayers which hitherto used to b
recited loudly. And what will be don
with those prayers which the ritual insist
upon being absolutely "silent Z"

DISGUSTING OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES English

Disgusting JOURNALI-M.-SomeE English
Journals are not particularly dainty in the
language they use, or the pictures they
present to the public. in reference to the
Royal family. Certain of the cartoons
published by the I0mdhdrE will not readily
tie forgotten, and articles to match them
appear not infrequeptly in some London
publications. To take a case in point, the
birth of son of the Prince of Wales few
days ago was announced in the Reynolds
Newspaper, under the headipg "An0tber
luauspicious Event." and the death of the
infant is thus referred to:
"a HAPPY RELEAsE.-We have much salts
faction in announcing that the newly-born
child of the Prince and Princess of Wales died
shortly after its birth, thus relieving the work
ing-class of England from having to support
hereafter another addition to the long roll of
State beggars they ut present maintain"
This disgusting and atrocious style of
journalism has never, we rejoice to say,
disgraced Ireland, and most heartily We
hope it never will. In our country national
editors have again and again stood in the
dock and the dungeon for their political
opinions, and as long as the national cause
remains to be fought out, they must be ns
ready as ever to face such penalties still.
But our warfare is not with the Innocence
of infancy; our weapons are not coarse
and brutal personalities; our cause is
higher, more noble, aud more great than q

The "TIMEs" TABLK.-The ladies who have
undertaken the fair for the parochaI female
school for st. Patrick's Church have all worked
assiduously, and deserve much credit for their
constant energy and attention. As will be
seen by the advertisement in our paper this
morning, the ladies of the "Times Table,
have not been wanting in this enterprise, but
present such an array of attractions as cannot
fail to bring their friends to their
support. At their table will be found the set
of bases, one dozen bats and one dozen balls to
be contested for by the base ball clubs. As
chivalry and gallantry are always closely
allied, we know that the lovers of this manly
pastime will appreciate the thoughtfulness of
these ladies, aud bravely strive to win the
prizes offered. The "Times" table also offers
at rattle fine suit of boys clothes, donated by
that generous merchant Capt. B. I. Walshe !;
pair of handsome boots, for some lucky
boy, contributed by our open-hearted friends,
Messrs. Glynn & Wintz, and q genuine Singer
sewing machine. All the light weights and
heavy men are requested to come forward and
be weighed on the Forsyth scale at this table,
aud prize will be given to the heaviest and
lightest man weighed during the fair. As for
refreshments, we can assure our readers that of
they call at the "Times" table they will be
entertained with that hospitality for which
the fair daughters of the "Gem of the Sea ~
have ever been proverbial The fair opened
last night, and will be open again tonight
and every day and night during the coming
week, and we hope that all of our readers will
remember the honor due st. Patrick, and the
attractions offered at the Chimes table.

This is one of series of scientific works
addressed to the young. The style is of the
narrative kind, in which a dash of personal
adventure is pleasantly intermingled with o
large amount of philosophical information.
The dryness of merely scientific details is thus
skilfully avoided, while equally thorough
knowledge of them is conveyed.
