Nineteenth Century Pulpit Oratory-
Hyacinthe, Burke, Bcocher and spur

To rHR EDITOR OF THE HERALD
For the space OF nearly ten years, in France, be-
tween 1858 and 1863, a Carmelite monk by the name
OF Pere Hyacinthe occupied a wide space in the
eye OF the world as an eloquent preacher Of the
Gospel He preached year after year series OF
conferences ut the old cathedral church OF Paris,
Notre Dame and that he was truly eloquent and
brilliant all admitted. OF poetic temperament
and a lively imagination-the great requisites Of
true oratory--and spontaneous now OF language;
a discursive mind, that could go back and
take in the past and come down and calmly
review the present-all finished on by O per-
feet eocution; he, therefore, unquestionaby
stood as the greatest pulpit orator of the age.
But what sort OF Gospel did he preach He was
chasing, In the latter years OF his preaching, q
hodge-podge Utopia-a reconciliation OF Catholi-
csm with the 'society OF the nineteenth century"
and compromise between Popery, Judaism and
Professionalism. lie was preaching Gospel that
drew around him inndel members Of the French
Academy like Michelet and Rcnan, Louis Napoleon's
inhde statesmen tops and dandes gentlemen OF
leisure and ladies OF the dent-monde those COM
posing the weight Of his audience, who came, not
TO near the Word OF God, but of man. Poor mis-
guided man II he had only preached the Gospel
OF Jesus CHRIST, pure and Undecided, he might have
saved France the late terrible war, and given new
spiritual lifo TO hs country. But the world led him
away, and he Is now intellectually dead and for
gotten. ue Ii buried In tho grave Of oblivion.

What Is the Best Religion f:

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
From the Latin derivation OF this word we get
the idea OF binding back again something that had
been broken of or that had strayed away Dis
obedience-t. e., sin-produced disruption be-
tween God and man. Religion is Gods plan for
binding back man to Himself After 1000 waiting
years Gods plan fully set forth IN tho God man.
Jesus Christ. After this wonderful Person had per-
formed the duties Of His public ministry He suf-
fered death and rose again. For forty days He
spoke to His apostles of the things which per.
tanned to His kingdom. Ten days after His
ascension His grand promise was fulfilled and the
Holy Ghost descended upon the apostles on the Day
OF Pentecost leading them to establish the Chris
tian Church, with Its simple creed, its threefold
ministry and life-giving sacramento. Believers in
Jesus Christ were baptized confirmed and received
to the Holy Communion and then patiently edu-
Gated in all the truths OF the Gospel. In due time
the books of the New Testament were added to
those OF the Old, forming the canon of Holy Scrip
ture OF which this Apostolic Church became the
keeper and expounder. Thus was clearly set forth
the way in which the Triune God would bind back
erring man unto himself. The writer of this short
article believes that this divnely appointed plan in
all its funess Is set forth by the Book of Common
Prayer 80 dear to the Anglican Communion

THE LOUISIANA FACTIONS.
What the Investigating Committee Found.
From the New York Evening Postl

What the Investigating Committee Found.
From the New York Evening Post.l
! WASHINGTON, March 14.-Many inquiries
are made about the testimony taken by the
! committee sent to New Orleans to investi-
rate the troubles there. l learn that there
were many rich things unearthed, not parti-
cularly f1attering to either Of the different
parties. The evidence is voluminous. and
we fear will not see the light until it is too
late to be of any service. We understand
there was conclusive evidence of attempts
at bribery on every side. A sum was
raised to defray the expenses of one
bill before the Legislature to which it
is still asserted that General Casey con-
tributed several thousand dollars, and an
other government officer an equal amount,
and in order to protect the money it was
deposited in the treasury Office of the
United Orleans. The bill passed both
houses, bnt was vetoed by the Governor.
and the money then returned. These and
other facts equally pertinent have been re-
ported to Washington, but General Casey
has not been removed, while his opponent
General Longstreet, spoken of as the only
honest man there. has sent in his resigna
ton.
The first ATTEMPT at bribery shat was
brought to the notice of the committee was
by several banking houses. who belonged TO
the better class OF sOclety-tO the Ola
Southern and Democratic families. They
bought up the members of the Legislature.
When they had once received money they
were eager for more, and thereafter nothlnS
could pass that was not bought through the
Legislature Two sets of delegates have
been chosen to the Philadelphia convention,
one by the Warmoth faction, the other
by the Carter men, each claiming to he
legally elected by a majority OF all the dele
gates.
The committee ere about equally divided,
the chairman and two members thinking
the Warmoth party are the least to blame.
1t is not probable that majority OF the
committee can unite in any complete report,
but we may expect 10 find from all these
reports what is the truth in regard to each
Of the three parties.
A pretty good story was told to the com
mittee by the Carter faction. After they
were turned out of the United States vessel
by order of the Secretary of the Treasury.
they went to small log cabin just over the
Mississippi line. where they were beyond
reach of the sergeantat-arms. Th' cabin
was small and the rooms limited. The lady
proprietor apologized. and said she should
be obliged to put large parties into the
same room. The blackies of the party said
she need not trouble herself about them, as
they had been obliged TO sleep with the
white members for two weeks IN the small
cabin of the revenue cutter. and We're there
fore, used to it.
