We Catholics teach positive truth; Protestants
teach negative truth. We say this is so; the
Protestants say that is not so. proper un-
derstanding of infallible supremacy, the doc
trine of purgatory, and the worship of the
Virgin Mary are the real obstacles to union.
It is not possible intelligently 60 unite with a
Church teaching them. It is the duty of the
En- glish and American Church to retain, pub
lish, and practise openly, fully, aud honestly
everything catholic she holds and has. AL
ready the Greek Church halls us as a sister.
The Roman Church has two manners of peo-
pie struggling in her. The late Council
showed their strength. 1t is not doubtful
that the catholic party will triumph, and the
Roman will fail. The Anglican Church has
only to maintain her catholic protests against
Rome and to abandon those Puritanioal
denials of truth which sectarian
Professionalism has implicated her in,
and in less than generation, at our present
rate of progress, the Greek, the Roman, and
the Anglican Church will be seen advancing
with outstretched hands to reconciliation, and
our own Church throughout the world will be
the honored instrument of reunion, on the
basis of 'the faith once delivered to the
saints, which she upholds.

The danger to New-Orleans from the crevasse
at Bonnet Care is not so great or immediate
as at first reported, the flood having found its
way into Lake POnchartrain thirteen miles
north of the Crescent City. The destruction
to the intermediate country must have been
great, the water having spread over it and
reduced it once more to the condition
of marsh and bog from which the building
of the levees reclaimed it, For ten years they
have been neglected.; and it is high time that
the States which have profited by the reclama-
ton of the swamp lands should be compelled
to observe the condition of the original gift
by maintaining them. Louisiana suffers now
for the neglect and fraud which have charac-
terizod the various phases of levee manage
ment through which she has gone since the
war. Each successive government or frag-
ment of q government has looked upon the
levees as a gold mine, to be worked for indi-
vidual profit at the public expense. The indi-
vidual profit is reported to be great, and GER
tainly the expense to the public turns out to
make pretty bill.

cravais and most sanity lives in.o alterations
like those Of "thc Bishop who lived IN Natal
and had Zulu for his pal.n Mr.. Thomson
treated the charge with true clerical contempt,
and when Mr., Robertson (of Bo'ness) said that
though he sat near the pulpit he failed to un-
derstand many sentences, the uncOmpre-
bended orator snorted scornfully and SAID,
81 could not give you brans"--a jest so stun
ming TO the Scottish mind that we are not sur
prised to learn it was followed by Laughter
"and confusion.n But in spite OF these RAPID
discharges of wit-0f this OfeDsc defensive
of the pregentee, the case was clearly against
him from the beginning, and every objection
was sustained by the grim Presbytcry.
We could have wished the Reverend Robert
safe deliverancc; but if worst comes to
worst, he can, like the prosecuted Cove
nanters, betake himself to the hills and
hold forth .tortissinio, with no fear of Claw
erhouse dragons. We think that his tai
ents peculiarly fit him for the out-of-doors
business, especially as his creed will not per-
nit him to reverberate in cathedral. Should
he return to his kirk, the sacred building
might be enlarged to something Like the
size of Mr. Surgeons edifice in Lon
don or the more nervous OF tho con-
gregation might provide themselves WIN
wax, and follow the example set by the mari
ners of Ulysses. The exact pulpit pitch Is
matter of taste; and when the Reverend Robert
takes into consideration the possibility that
immense elongation of ear in an auditor may
be accompanied by proportionate suscepti-
bility of the tympanum, he should have seen
the necessity of occasionally putting on the
soft pedal. Tis wicked world, we admit, ana
needs bawling at quite as much as any world
we have eyer heard of; but the Reverend Mr'
Thomson should have remembered that his
lambkins at least may not wish to be deafened
before the natural time for auricular inhrmIty.
