and free circulation of Gods word is not only
not recommended by Romanism, but is posi-
lively condemned.
Every Catholic knows how to classify
this statement. Not to be uncharitable,
we must merely say that it is utterly false.
To justify image worship, the second COM
mandment 10 sometimes left out of the deca-
! logue, and the others divided so as to make up
the number.
False. Again:
This same spiritual tyrant has for ages, and
! does to-day, curse and anathematize every
| form of free thought and investigation in the
worlds of literature, science or government.
False. Give unto God what is Gods and
unto Caesar what is Cesars, is the motto of
the Church.
| In the fifteenth century Clement VII de-
clared it doctrine of the Church that, for GER
tain sums of money, sins could be forgiven.
Utterly false. Where such bald asser-
lions are made, and only made, why pay
any further attention to them than to state
simply what they are. No man is called
\ on to prove negative or rebut mere as
sertion. Catholics may not all know the
falsehood of some of the above quoted
statements of fact, but they all know how
entirely false is the assertion of their be-
lief that sins can be forgiven for money, or
the assertion that the free circulation of
Gods word, that is, the Bible, is con-
demned, OF that the second commandment
is sometimes left out of the decalogue, OF
that they worship images, all of which
falsehoods are distinctly alleged as truths
in this delectable sermon. What do they
think also of a man who repeats in open
daylight, before an audience supposed to be
r. u
the female Popef What impression is
made upon their minds by person who
uses such insulting and abusive language
against the Popes and Saints of the Church
as is found in this sermon and finally for

the city of New Orleans, which makes it a
misdemeanor for any one to use abusive or
threatening language or gestures in the
public streets. If a misdemeanor may be
punished it may be prevented. If an indi-
vidual parades the streets with the simple
intention of haunting and insulting por-
ton of his fellow citizens, fully announced
| before hand, that parade could be prevent
ed, because it would tend directly to a
breach of the peace. How much more
would a procession of many persons, with
the same object, tend to produce breach
of the peace! In that case, it being well
known that such a procession was intend
ing to parade with a view grossly to taunt
and insult other citizens, and thereby pro-
woke breach of the peace, it would be as
lawful to prevent the act as it would be to
punish the insults as a misdemeanor if al
ready perpetrated.
The only question then is, Is an Orange
procession necessarily an insult to any
! bodyq And there can be no doubt that il
is most grievously insulting, principally in
political sense, but also religiously. The
most scurrilous notices, tunes and speeches
are used in regard to the Pope and the Ca.
tholic religion. "DOwn with the Popev
"To Hi with the Pope!" and similal
sentiments, are stereotyped ones on suct
occasions. Now if Catholics undertook tc

THE c. & Y. RAILROAD.

The Vincennss Western SIN, of late
date says;
Mayor Wood, late of the U. S. Army
but now temporarily sojournng as civil
liam at Terre Haute, was in our city YES
terday, on business connected with the
Vincennes and Cairo railroad. Major
Wood represents Messrs. Winslow Il Co.,
who have been awarded the contract for
building the road and the. object of his
VISIT was to ascertain what aid can
be expected from the
municipality of Vincennes. IN
the way of donation. We are glad to
learn that he met with flattering encour-
agement and that there is general dis
position among our citizens to give to this
road the aid which its Importance merits.
We have no doubt our city authorities
would readily donate fifty or sixty thou
sand dollars, in the event that the prin-
cipsl machine shops of the company are
located at this place"
The following is an extract from the re-
port of the proceedings of a meeting of
the city council of yincennes, held No
vember 9th:
A petition from ID. r. Larned, prcsi-
dent of the Vincennes and Cairo railroad
company OF Indiana, was presented to the
council, setting forth that it is proposed
to consolidate said company with the
Cairo and Vincennes railroad company OF
Illinois, making one continuous line OF
road from this city to Cairo. The petit
toner prayed a donation By council of
$4,000 in city bonds, having twenty
years to run, said bonds to be issued when
said road is completed and in running or
der to Cairo; also, the further sum Of $50, 900
when the principal machine shops of said
company are located at Vincennes. The
petitioner prayed the appointment of So
lcitors to canvass the city for signatures
of freeholders in favor of said donations,
which prayer was by unanimous vote Of
council granted.
Whereupon Mr.. Allen offered resolution
authorizing the mayor to appoint COM
mittee Of six persons, one from each ward
to circulate petitions for the signatures to
said railroad when completed, in accord
anGe with the said petition.
The mayor then appointed the following
persons to circulate said petition in the
different wards;
First ward, John II. Colman; Second,
Anthony Brouillette, Third, Gov. Haub
Fourth, Charles +. Raker; Fifth, +. G.
Ebcrwine; Sixth John Knauf.
