To Priests in the Country.

Our Rev. Clergymen in the country have
it in their power to aid us in greatly in
,creasing the circulation of the STAR. In
each town or village throughout the South,
q few words from the resident or visiting
priest would secure the accession to our
list of from ten to fifty subscribers. In
pushing this work, besides the strong rea-
sons which have actuated His Holiness,
Pope Plus, and all the Bishops of our Holy
Mother the Church. to advise the general
circulation of Catholic works of all kinds.
We would respectfully offer, us further
inducement, to supply all priests who send
us subscribers, with such Catholic books
as they may select, to the value of one
fourth of the money sent to US.

The Cradle.

1t may not be generally known that the
Infant Asylum, on Magazine street; is
nearly .on footing of starvation. The
State has been in the habit of subsidizing
this establishment, the most beautiful and
interesting of all our charitable institu-
tions, but in it's new system of rigid econ
omy recently iuaugurated, this provision
has been omitted. Taxation is under
stood, in this new school, to be in
tended merely for tho benefit of Office
holders. What az absurdity, then, to
take any of the revenues away from
that helpless class of virtuous citizens
to be bestowed upon n number of healthy,
squalling babies, full of vitality and youth
At any rate it is fact. There is no State
help for these innocents, and we must bow
our heads in gratitude to Herod that they
are not to be slain outright.
Under the circumstances the citizens
must come to the rescue and be voluntarily
taxed a little more. Do we expect these
orphaned babies to starve to death or to be
taken care off If they are to live, who
will feed themf Is it reasonable thet
a few delicate ladies should be expected
to care for and support between one
and two hundred children, by their own
exertions2 Of course not; but whose
business is itf We reply that it is every
body's business. We say distinctly that
everybody who has ever been baby is
bound to see that all helpless infants are
cared for. There is scarcely an adult Ca
tholic in this city who is not able to give
one dollar to the asylum of which we
speak.
Now there is going to be fine chance
of doing SO without going all the way
around to Magazine street. Early in June
next concert will be given for the relief
of the Asylum at a place which will be an
nounced hereafter. The ladies concerned
in it have never participated in any public
display, and are extremely averse to
changing that policy on this occasion, but
the exigency of the need calls upon them
with voice which they cannot resist.
The eminent musical ability with which
they are gifted, and the commanding in
hucnce which their position in society
gives to their names will insure a crowded
audience.
If every adult Catholic will give dol
lar, as ought to be the case, the proceeds
will amount to about $4,000. rs

The Most Rev. Archbishop of New Or
leans

From the far-off West comes q voice in praise
of the Most Rev. Archbishop of New Orleans.
The San Francisco Guardian, a new and able
Catholic weekly, published under the auspices
of His Grace the Archbishop of San Francisco,
pays the following deserved tribute to Arch
bishop Perche, whom tho Baltimore Volksseitung
very appropriately calls the courageous
Archbishop of New Orleans" That his great
services as founder and editor of 'the best Ca
tholic paper in the United States" are known
and appreciated throughout the Union, should
be source ofpride to all his spiritual chill
dren in this vast Province; and that the Catholic
Militant Union and the Propagateur will now,
joining hands under his guidance, fight the
good fight and triumph gloriously in the
future over the enemies of our Holy Church.
as that unequalled paper did single-handed in
the past, no one who knows aught of His Grace
can for moment doubt
AT New Orleans, the organization known as
the Catholic Militant Union of the Cross bids
tar to prove as successful as that of the italian
Association. The Union of the Cross has, we
nave reason to believe, been organized at the
immediate suggestion of His Grace, the Most
Kew: Archbishop Perche the oldest and most
distinguished Catholic editor in the United
States. 1t is fitting that the founder of the
abIest Catholic journal in the Countrywide
Propa9ate"r Cathotiq"e-should initiate, at an
epoch like the present, an enterprise SO grand
in its aims as that of the Catholic Militant
Union. Under such auspices, with the blessing
of God and the gracious intercession. of our
Blessed Lady, the movement, in spite of the
powers of He'll, will prove, in the coming con-
the assailants of our holy religion will fret and
fume in vain.

There is nothing more fortunate for mode
rate genius Ias than to be born poor The "silver
doubt, but the great trouble with them is, their
education is mainly of this order, and if they
don't become very great they are extremely
likely to become the very opposite. There is
taught to regard any, and consequently they
are, as general thing, unfit for it. Poverty
has helped men solve some of the greatest
problems of life. Half it's brave deeds have
been a necessity, and the most of it's noble
sayings have been born of a determined op-
position. 1t does man good to put him at
his wits end. Emergencies make men. ANY
man can be general or a pilot in calm but
storms show the metal Reputation is made
more by boldness and will than by ability and
patience. Life is too short to wait for the tide
whose ebb leads on to fortune. We must make
the most of the present opportunities, but we
shall hardly do it unless present opportunities
are IN the main present necessities. The man
the most successful man.

THE DEAD SEA.-This sea, being with
ont an outlet, evaporation is the only escape
of the water pouring into it by the river
brings into that extraordinary reservoir,
which is a depression in the earth's crust
thirteen hundred feet below the water level
of the Mediterranean, an immense mass of
materials which must at last fill it up, when
the Jordan will then run on beyond and
find an outlet to the sea, if the world re-
mains in its present physical form long
enough. The Jordan watts down ninety
cubic yards of water every second. Each
day it carries in six and half bushels of
salt, liberated from rocks, on it's passage,
in each ninety cubic yards. Therefore that
dreadfully salt, bitter reservoir has nearly
reached the point of saturation. When no
more salt can be dissolved, then it will &C.
reaches quite near the present surface. Its
future will have quite as much interest for
coming ages as its past history.

III.


But iDasmuch as men may squabble for
ever over texts of the Bible or passages
from the Fathers, we went on to our third
argument from the authority Of the Church,
which has pronounced the Pope infallible
We based it's claims to authority on facts
which cannot be disputed and not on texts
which may be.
We said the Church existed before the
New Testiment was written and operated
most energetically and fruitfully for nearly
AGO years before that work was compiled
by it's authority from mass of writing of
the Apostolic era. We argued that it
could have kept on as it commenced with
out any authentic edition of the New
Testiment or, indeed, without any such
written work at all. To this no answer.
We said that it had never blundered so
aagrantly as to have to acknowledge it's
blunders like the sects which are constantly
changing, but what it ever taught it teach.
es now. To this no answer.
We said that it had never blundered at
all, never taught any error whatever, be-
cause the beginning of that error cannot
be pointed out. To this our opponent has
answered, that the dogma of infallibility
is an error and that it can point us out a
certain day in 1870 as the day of it's be-
ginning. We reply that printed books as
far back as they 60 and manuscripts before
them show that doctrine taught in 80
many words for many centuries and that
nowhere during the whole history of the
Church is it branded as an innovation.
We explained that the definition of dog
ma is not the revelation of new doctrine !;
as where the dogma of the Holy Trinity
was defined by Council, the doctrine was
not new but had been always taught in the
Church. This is not answered, neither las
our opponent the fairness to recognize the
distinction.
Our argument from the historical exis-
tence and character of The Church, there
fore, remains unanswered like the others.
We can hardly, therefore, accept the
kind advice of our neighbor which turns
away from these little stumbling blocks
and refers us, for illumination on the
subject, to Dollinger, Appleton g. Co.'s
Year Book, and certain doings of one
Able Michaud. Let those gentlemen
prove their inspiration by eighteen centu-
ries of spiritual supremacy, by eighteen
centuries of contest with the powers of the
world and in the crucible of human
thought and then we may listen to them.

LETTER FROM BILOXI, MISS.
BILOXI, MISS, May 16, 1872.

BILOXI, MISS, May 16, 1872.
To the Editor of Morning Star:
Last Sunday week, at High Mass, our
church was densely crowded, not only
with Catholics, but also with people of
other religious persuasions, who were
drawn together to be present at the bless
ing OF two statues. 1t had been announced
that the ceremony would take place pre-
vious to the celebration of Mass. These
statues had been purchased at New Orleans
by our Jealous pastor, Rev. p. Chevalier !;
in beauty of design and finish. One of
them, at the epistle side, representa- st.
Peter bearing in his right hand the keys
symbolic of his authority; the other, at
the Gospel side, represents st. Patrick, in
the attire OF bishop, having his breviary
under his left arm, the right being extend
before the Mass the pastor, in conformity
with the announcement, blessed the statues.
After the Gospel he told the congregation
that he would, in the evening, bless q
splendid bell, weighing 400 pounds),
which had been generously donated by Mr..
Rev. Father F. Finn. of Ocean Springs,
who, after some predatory remarks, said lie
would preach on est. Patrick"
mad often heard the panegyric of this
Industrious saint, but never before IN Ian
guage so plain, so simple, so graceful, yet
SO sublime as on this occasion. As Incl
dental to the subject-matter of his dis
course, he depicted the Irish character
from infancy through the stages of Adde'S
cence and maturity even to old age. He
concluded by exhorting his hearers to
initiate the virtues of the saint whose
statue was before them.
In the afternoon, at the ceremony of
blessing the bell, he dwelt on the necessity
of bell, and the blessings attached there
to-. In conclusion he besought his hearers
to be mindful of its heavenly tolls, morn
ing, noon land night, and at each time to
recite the Angelus Domini. JOB.

A PECULIAR CAsE.-That new religious
sect of peculiar People. ;" appears to sur
vive remarkably in England, considering
article of faith of this denomination never,
under any circumstances, to call in doctor.
Thus at Plumstead, a little one of an elder of
the PIP. had smallpox. The elders prayed
over her; they lads hands on her; they
Amounted her; and, generally speaking,
"put their trust in God" In eleven days,
without the administration of any medi-
cine, with only little arrow root and
wine to nourish the body, the poor thing
died. OF course, the Peculiar People are
consistent enough to believe neither in
vaccination or contagion, and, as a result
they have not only religious joy, but rather
more than their share of smallpox. In
this case, a jury has returned o verdict Of
Granddaughter" against the father.

During the month of March there were
147 fires in New York, involving loss of
$146. 600, on which the amount of insurance
was 81 ,Ia6, 900, q curious discrepancy be-
tween absolute losses and the value for
which property was insured. The number
of fires in London in 1871 was Is42, of
which 207 alone were serious. OF these 259
were caused by candles, 162 by gas, 43 by
tobacco, 1875 by "sparks from fire." SO by
lucifers, IA by parafin lamps, and 80 by
airing linen. In the course of the year
dangered. The greatest number of fires
occurred in August, and the smallest in
October. Every year the number of seri-
GUS fires as against the slight is decreasing
"a result which is attributed to the great
efficiency of the fire brigade. 1t will be
seen seen that, judging by the returns for March,
population of London, has nearly as many
fires.

A SLIGHT MIsrAKE.-Mrs. Du Cane, the
wife of the Governor of Tasmania, recently
met with a somewhat singular adventure.
A daughter of Lord Lyndhurst, she inherits
some of the strongly marked features of
her fathers character, and is by no means
conventional grand dame. She takes an
active part in the management of the hos
pital, nurses the sick with her own hands,
shows greater Partially for bulldogs than
for poodles, and is very fond of solitary
drives in sort of tilbury, her horse being
gaily caparisoned ga la Russo" with num-
Der of jingling bells. A few days ago she
got into neighborhood where she was not
known, and, pulling up to enjoy lovely
bit Of scenery, found herself surrounded
by a group of children. "Oh, come here,
here's the circus woman, let's find out
where she is going to put up her tent"
She tried at first to undecieve them, but it
was useless; they would have it that she
was going to sspitch" somewhere near the
village, and were eager to point ont good
spot. At last she entered into the spirit of
the thing, allowed them to show her con-
yenieut locality, and after hoaxing them
with q most graphic account Of the wonders
of her slaOw, was allowed TO drive away in
peace. This little nd ntHro has made her
