From the Southwestern Presby terian. |
Light ON Dark Subject.

Our readers will not fail to appreciat,
the generous purpose of cur ROmish CO
temporary to convince them by substantia
evidence that the Pope 10 infailible.
1t might be thought by some. that il
would have been better to convince theil
own people before proceeding to enlighter
Protestants on this amusing theme. Here
for instance is Spain, q Romish country, 60 tc
speak but Spain cannot see it; Here is Italy
the citadel Of the Papacy which is not YET
convinced of it. Mexico, q Priest governed
land for centuries, is unable to be per-
gious revolution now taking place there.
And as to Bavaria the stronghold OF
Romauism in Middle Europe, its Parlia.
ment denounces it. Austria too shows her
inability to receive it by revoking the con-
cordat. Is it not premature to try to con-
the minds of such learned Romanists as
Strossmayer, Dollinger, Hyacinthe, and
many others reject as an impudent and in.
famous falsehoodf
Yet our readers will no doubt be flattered
to learn that in the opinion of our Romish
contemporary, Presby terians are better
qualified than these learned Romanists, to
pronounce on the truth of this remarkable
claim.
Whether this is 40, or not, we freely ad-
NIT that If the Pope Ia really infallible,
Protestants ought to know it. We there.

position of our learned friends to prove
this fact In our columns, and also to pub
lish In their columns what we may have to
say in reply.
If the Pope in faith and morals, has been
constituted infallible by divine authority,
God Himself cannot have been ignorant Of
the fact; we expect our learned friends,
therefore, to- prove that fact from the
Divine RecOrd-the word of God; we then
can see why those who join the Papal In
ternational. must renounce-as is required
OF its Inembers-all the national and sec
tional feeling-accept his infallibility, and
blindly promise beforehand, to carry out
whatever the Pope may see fit to dictate.
If, however, it is true that he is infallible
as an actual fact, while yet the Divine
Record, has unfortunately forgotten to
state it. let them bring forward the fact b.
which it is proved that the Pope is infalli-
BILE, and we will bow to their authority
Facts remember! not opinions!
We have published their proposition,
and We hope they will publish our accept
ance of it.
The curtain will now rise upon the So
called irfallible Pope. |

When he was cast into prison, the whole
Charch prayed for him, as would naturally
be the case II he were its chief pastor. The
same solicitude 10 not recorded ia favor Of
any of the other apostles In their troubles.
His name is always first mentioned where
the apostles are named in order. His pre-
sidence at the appointment of an apostle
to replace Judas, and HIS decision at the
first Council against the necessity of cir
comcision, all tend to show that the pre-
eminence which our Saviour gave to him
was recognized by every body.
| Peter 10 the rock on which the Church is
built, aud that Church is pronounced infal.
lible for all time. The gates of hell shall
not prevail against it." Now il the Church
Is infsllible, the rock on which it is founded
cannot be other than the rock Of truth.
Therefore, Peter was infallible in his capa-
city OF chief or foundation of the Church.
But Peters death could not affect the
Church Of God. 1t was to be infallible for
all time and to be based upon the rock of
Peter for all time. Therefore this rock
could be mono other than Peter and his
successors.
This Ia by no means an original view Of
the text. 1t was held by s.. Augustine in the
fourth and fifth centuries. He says, .'Couut
over the bishops from the very See of Peter

more to the same effect.

are laid by legislature which was not
elected by the people. They are assessed
by ofdcials who rate property at far above
its value, whose direct interest it is made
BY the law so to assess it, and from whose
Ubiquitous despotism there appears to be
no appeal provided. The Constitution
permits the Legislature to levy taxes, but
requires that these shall be computed upon
the real value of property, not upon fcti-
tious valuation at the will of tax assessors !;
1t requires that taxation shall be equal and
Uniform, which it cannot possibly be if no
provision is made for q correct assessment.
We say, therefore, that persistent and
courageous resistance on the part of tax
payers might result in a judicial victory
and would thus be the most eHectual rene.
dy for our ills by cutting off the supplies
of our enemy. Surely there is no temporal
evil Of tie day more needing an energetic
remedy than this. We know of family
Of orphans whose total annual revenues
from city improved property are $500, of
which about $3.50 or one half goes for taxes.
We know also a widow lady who has to
pay State tax of $50 on property which
several years ago paid only s. when it was
assessed with another property of equal
value.
These are intolerable wrongs and rob-
berries, but we think the arena of the court
room a much more favorable one for their
correction than that of the battle field, as
matters stand just now. .

Work for the "Union."

Members of the Catholic Union some
times appear to be in the dark as to what
practical works there can be for them to
carry through. Once established on a
working basis and every Section will find
its records full enough of cases where the
rights of Catholics, as such, are attacked
and ought to be defended, or where the
Church has been wronged and must be
| righted. One of the most notorious
agencies of the latter kind is the associa-
ton for supplying the newspapers with
telegraphic dispatches. The Associated
press dispatches from Rome, for instance,
are flagrantly and insolently lying; so
much so that Catholics have been warned
not to believe a single word from that
quarter having the slightest reference to
religion. But Rome is not the only centre
of telegraphic bigotry. Look at the
following from Spain in the dailies of last
Thursday:
Dispatches from the province of Old CASTLE
state that o band of priests and Carlists had
attacked the municipality of Agreda, and,
gaining entrance, had seized aud carried off
the electoral documents.
A band of priests and Carlists A lawless
set, truly! And particularly when we read
in Saturdays dispatches that some of these
Carlists are headed by Internationalists
This is nice crowd for band of clergy
men to be affiliating with and a highly
business for the whole gang of
rowdies, to be breaking up an election by

gross exaggeration or Misrepresentation,
Of perhaps an unconditional lie in this state

given tends to throw great discredit upon d,

New ORLEANS, April 9th, 1877.

NEW ORLEANS, April 9th, 1872.
Rev. and Dear Sir:
Tie Society called the " Catholic MiH-
tant Union of the Cross" which have for
some time had established in this Diocese,
is now organized in a number of parishes.
1t 10 my intention that it shall be organized
in every one of them. To effect that end
need your assistance, upon which rely
whenever there is question of Catholic
works of general interest. You will,
therefore, make your parishioners acquaint-
ed with this Society end its objects. To
aid you therein, I enclose q copy of the
Constitution and Regulations of the So
ciety.
What especially desire Of you, Rev.
and Dear Sir, is to explain the object of the
association distinctly, openly and unequivo-
cally. We, Catholics, are not of the sort
that favor secret dealings and rely upon
mysterious maneuvres. People say that
this is an age of publicity in all it's affairs,
If so, am glad of it, but it cannot be
denied that there are both individuals and
societies who fear close scrutiny. For
OR part, accustomed as we are to write
and speak in the open light of day, we fear
not publicity, either in regard to our
principles, by which alone there is safety
both for society in this world and for souls
in the next, OF in regard to our works,
which are always the embodiment of our
principles. Publicity will bring strife upon
usf So much the better! Truth always
emerges from contest the more beautiful
and radiant, the more powerful and strik-
ing, by reason of it. You know, more
over, Rev. and Dear Sir, that whenever
there shall be question of a contest, nv
clergy will always find me- at their head, |
ready to meet every attack, aud to assume
the responsibility of whatever they have
done by my directions.
Receive, Rev. and Dear Sir, the assurance
of my paterual affection.

Archbishop of New Orleans.

the Catholic Church. 1t ia of Importance,
therefore, that it should be examined into
and explained or contradicted. But who
is going to do thisf The Associated Press
reporterss The mere supposition is alb
surd. What then; must Catholics sit
quietly, shut their eyes and take it ALI
This question is applicable not only to
this country Of Protestant majority, but
to the strongest Catholic communities.
For even there Catholics have always been
so perfectly unorganized outside of the
Church building, 90 completely at the
mercy of the bad elements Of society
which are always organized, always active
in their hostility, that the small fraction of
Atheists, Free Masons and Libertines
never fail by intrigue and continued
watchfulness to hold every strategic point
on the field. They keep every controlling
post from the Kipg's Couucil and the Par
lament down to the Associated Press news
reports.
The same question is also not only appli-
cable to this age, but will continue to be
of practicable application to the end of the
world. Throughout all future ages it will
be as in the past, and Catholics will ever
be as helpless flock of sheep before the
wolf, except where they oppose effort to
effort, watchfalness to watchfulness, and
6sganization to organization. They have
8 duty in this respect which it will never
hesceforth be permitted them to ignore.
Now, In the very instance above cited,
what ought they to do They ought to
have o Central Board organized for general
defense, which would Immediately tele-
graph to Spain and get at the truth of the
facts in this case. They ought then to
publish it and expose the author of the lie
to the e1ecration of that public sense of
justice which is ever prompt when fairly
informed.

Infallibiuty.

Alongside this article will be seen tn.
fresbyterian's acceptance of our proposition
to discuss the dogma of Papal Infallibility
But strangely enough that paper la,
fanked us on tho very first move. We
meant that We were ready to meet any
attack on the dogma and proposed To
publish such attacks and then respond to
them. The Presbyterian, however, quietly
draws back into its she'll and says: "Go
ahead. Wen answer you."
This fs hardly fair, considering that the
said journal had been for several numbers
pitching into the dogma vigorously and
that our proposition was mado in reference
to continuance of the same tactics. How
ever, az our neiGhbor puts the chip on his
own head, we'il knock 1t of.
In the first place let us publish the dogma
itself before We discuss it. Here it is with
tho penal clause:
Ihe Roman POntif, aohen lie speaks lex
CATHEDRAL that 10 to say, ,chen discharqinq the
functions Of Pastor and Doctor of all Chris-
tsdns, 6y virtMe of his supreme Apostolic
authority, he defines a doctrine regarding
Jaih or morals to be hold BY tho u;,iversal
ance 1oromssed to I'm in blessed Peter. the
same sntalMbility s0hich our Divine Redeemer
tntended His Church should be endstved .vith
for defining doctrine concerning faith or
morale and consequently such definitions of
TIE Roman Pontif are Of themselyes irretorm-
aole, and not from the consent Of the Church.
"Hany one shaL presume, s0hich may God
rorbtd, to contradict this Our definition, let
him be anathema."
