He writes probably unconscious OF his power, but

Of the influence OF education as manifested

ST. FRANCIS XAvIER's CHURCH.


The Rev. Father DAILY s. j., preached at the gos
pei OF the high mass yesterday, taking tor his sub
ject the parable Of the rich mans unjust steward
Luke xvi, 10. He dwet with eloquent force upon
the necessity OF every one being prepared at all
times to give an account Of his stewardship. We
all have duties to PERFORM for the faithful full
hlmcnt OF which the Master will hold US to q
rigorous account. No matter how we may neglect
or evade what Is required OF us, we must answer
at the bar OF the Most High for every misspent
hour, for every violation OF His commands and
for every neglect In fulfilling our duty. The
mass was short, simple little work by l.. Hetsch
an organist in Mayence. The first solo quartet
being OH vacation, the mass was sung by the
second quartet, consisting OF Mrs. William Berge,
Madame Schultz and Messrs. Huck and Stanton
The admirable course OF training to which this
choir is subjected by the distinguished organist
DR.. William Berge, Is an uniailng guarantee OF the
excellence OF the music in this church at all
seasons. Many important works viii be sung by
DR.. Berge's choir during the Fall and Winter.
Among them are masses by DOnzett, List,
Gounod, Prince Poniatowski and Paestima. One
mass by tie last mentioned composer is in eight
distinct parts. ROssini's "Messe Soenelle' will
also be rehearSed.

The Value ofMan ufnctures.

Ex-Gov. Washburn delivered an address re-
emily before the Board Of Trade at Mlnneapo-
lis, 10 which, among other things he said that q
thousand dollars put into manu- featuring would
do more to gather population into city than
a million of dollars put into trade.
Now, this may seem to DC an cxtravagant
statement, but we believe that it is the truth
That which creates employment and gives fu!l
scope to industry OF every kind, is what builds
up a city. Consider, for a moment, what pop
uation we should have here; what vast &C.
cumuation of wealth, if the various fabrics OF
cotton wool iron, lumber, wood, &c., that are
manufactured in hundred cities OF the North,
but sold in this market, We're manufactured
here They would furnish employment to
probably, more than a hundred thousand souls
whose aggregate earnings, together with the
capital invested, would be boarded here and
secure to us a prosperity that we can never re.
alzc under existing circumstances, or while We
are content to be mere vendors Of the manufac.
turcd articles that come to US from abroad.
The Louisville Couricr-J ournal puts the case
very strongly 10 the following:
ANY one can really zee that it takes more
men to produce given article OF manufacture
than it does tn sell the article after 1T Is taken
to the store. Half DOZEN men IN leather
stores, can easily sell the leather Whose
manufacture required the labor Of fifty tan
ners and curriers', A wholesale dry goods
house will sell million Of dollars worth OF
cloths, pruts silks aud other fabrics, with help
of dozen statesmen, while the factories which
produced the goods employ several hundred
operatives We might contrast the few clerks
employed in a bank with capital OF one hun
drrd thousand dollars against the large number
of moders and 6uishers employed in foundry
having the same amount OF capital and extend
the illustrations almost indefinitely. Trade and
manufactures must unite to create great city,
but manufactures are undoubtedly vastly more
useful 10 bringing in population, for the obvl-
Gus reasons which we have already given. -
