Hnfallibility.

. The Presbyterian having resumed this
theme, our readers will find, in another
colunp, its response to our last article.
The first half Of it's editorial 10 devoted to,
the announce ment, IN various forms, that all
our propositions and proofs in suPpnrt OF
Instability were "empty assertions" This
is certainly grave charge, and would go
far, # true, towards closing the case SO, far
as we are concerned, But on this point we
are notwilling to be concluded by its mere
reiteration of that statement. The Presby-
terrain takes up half column in simply re-
peating this charge, without attempting to
sustain it except upon the authority OF
Kenrick and Dollinger. We prefer simply
| to deny its charge, and remit our judges to
| the controversy which has preceded, for
information on this point. They will lind
| that we did not merely assert that our doc
trine was sustained by the Bible, but cited
the texts on which we relied; that We did
not merely assert the testimony of the
Fathers to be in its favor, but quoted many
of their writings to that effect; that We did
not merely assert tue authority of the late
Gcumenical Council to be justly conclu.
sive on this point as tho voice of.the Church
but sustained that view by historical refer
ence. These propositions were not, there
fore, mere "empty assertions" but to show
how far they were from it would require u
to publish our articles over.
Indeed it cannot but strike one as sinGu
lar that the Presbyterian should just nov
fnd these propositions to have been ou
"empty assertions" after having fabore'
arduously during i've OF six weeks to cOun
! teract our proof of. them,. and, as "

We call the attention of our readers, and
especially . Of members of the Cathohc
Militant Union, to an appeal which will DC
found in another column, copied from the
London Tablet, and emanatiug from the
Society of Catholic Youth of Italy. This
IL moi thing Iess than a most earnest call for
contributions to the Holy Father, in his
pressing need. .. 1t must be remembered
that his States have been taken from MIN
by force, and his revenues suppressed
Formerly the pope was independent Of the
charity of the Faithful. Tile munihcence
OF PRINCE and peoples had placed him
in position of atfiuence; but the peculiar
sense OF justice prevalent ut this day has
found all that a mistaken zeal and appro-
priated these donations in what it con-
siders a moe equitable way.
At any rate the robbery is now an &C
complished fact, aud the complete poverty
of his Holiness is rs much 80. Under such
circumstances, there is not one Catholic in
the world who ought. not to consider it a
5ptv and q pleasure to contribute some
tbing to his support. He is the Father OF
all the Faithful, and tile sense OF having
been able to aid him directly ought TO be
source of qualification to ever one. lie Il
also the Chief Pastor of the Church, ant
every Catholic is more sacredly bound t.
sec to his support than to that of his I'm
mediate clergy.
w. hope that the Militant Union vii
take this matter seriously in hand. Bot
the Object and the peculiar formation
tht.t-sacil:x indicate it as the most prope
medium for. such an appeal. Its object l
especially to sustain the Pope in his TEN
-poral relations aud its constitution con
templates the ahiliation of all Catholics
Not only could it recommend contribu
ton on tie part of its members but it coul

to the public.

japanese Women

The japanese women are net

ural manners; with beautifully-sha
ed arms, and tiny hands. The
Young women are all as remarkable
for their superb white teeth as the
married ones arc for their hideous
black ones. This custom origina
ted some two or three hundred
years ago, and is supposed to show
the wifes devotion to her husband.
One of the mikado's wives ESQ goes
the legend) was very lovely, and to
show her Indifference to her person
al appearance, and TO prove her
love for her husband, blackcned her
beautiful teeth and shaved off her
eyebrows. This was considered
such sacrifice, that all living wives
met to be outdonc by Mrs. Mikado)
followed her example. The custom
has become compulsory.
Whether the married women like
thus to blacken their teeth or not,
is disputed among. foreign residents
here. The men compel them, how
ever, to do it, whether they like it
or not, for it is the great sign by
which man consecrates and shows
off his female chattel to the world.
Whoever has bIackcncd teeth is not
to be touched by other men, on pain
of death. The eyebrows of married
women, / may as well add here,
are shaved, and their lips rouged.
Needs there, then, this penalty of
death ?-iSeren Months Run.

A MAN TO ROB HIM AT PLEAsURE,-
The ingenuity of London criminals

w novel. Sometimes there are cases
of special interest, showing a dc
gree of resource and boldncss worth

in London since the cat camc in,
and knocking down old gentlemen
in the street is risky business. But
taking tho victim up bodily and
carrying him off is a business that
one would hardly expect TO hear OF.
We find in n London paper that
this has actually been done, with
the. most brilliant result. An ell
derby person was walking homo one
