John w. Forney, in the Philadelphia
Press, Gays writing from California 'iThe
Catholic priests and Jesuits kept alive the
spirit Of civilization, however rude, in
Gated the Indians. And it must also be
said that the Catholics and the Quakers
have shown far more wisdom and sagacity
in their treatment Of the aborigines than
the Government. William Penn, in the
great State immortalized by his name, and
the Jesuits, in early Mexico, are memorable
lexamples Of this fact. Nor must we for
get the great influence of the Irish element
on this coast, far more effective than the
German, because of the. facility of its as
lsimilatien with the Americans. This race
has been of vast influence In trade and So
ciety. Broderick was a Catholic, and he
numbers his followers by thousands.
Peter Donahue, of San Francisco, is an
other. He visited this coast in 1s47, and
became identified with the men who poured
into California two years later; President
of the pioneer "Forty-Niners,7 he is as fine

in 1s49 so, with a number of others, and
reached San Francisco after the most ter
