Discourse by tho Rev. Henry A. Branu.
ID. D.-The Causes Of Scctarian Clamor
Based on Prejudice and Want OF Dis
criminatiOn-Its Effects and Results.
The Rev. DR.. Henry A. Brann delivered q dis.
course on the above subject last evening
to o large congregation, in st. Anthonys
church., sullivan street, between Prince and
Houston streets. He opened his discourse
by stating the fact that prejudice
held an influence, to greater or less degree, over
every human heart. A man devoid of prejudice
was no longer human. lie then showed the logi.
cal distinction between conviction and prejudice.
The form er Is belief in established facts, founded
upon reason, the latter freak OF the Imagination
OF the WILL
lie then introduced his subcct-"Sectarian
Clam0r." IT was necessary for some one, he
thought, to speak few plain, blunt words on the
present clamor OF religious sects against
THE CATHOLIC CHURCH.
This camor arose either rom prejudice, ignorance
or want Of discrimination. That 1t arose from
prejudice he proved from daily occurrences and
illustrated by analyzing the gist and moral
OF tie romance OF Don Quixote. It arose
from ignorance, because the true principles OF
Catholic doctrine were not sunlc entity studied.
Men were ignorant OF the teachings of the Church.

The slippery sidewalks yesterday were not

Pews and aisles were crowded, and the sermons

The eutire appropriation OF s26O,o9o LOT
legislative expenses, seems to have been e4-
hausted, and still there are scores of claim
ants hungerng and clamorlDg for their pay
We are Informed that the treasury was literal
ly besieged yesterday, but the stern reply Oh
the wearled treasurer sounded sad on the air,
ssToo late, too late" The treasurer Ia right,
of course, II the appropriation has been ex'
hausted, to refuse the payment OF anotner
cent. Once open the door, and the whole or
the greater part of the taxes may 60 10 this
way, as they did last year. But how 10 IL, auo
who is to blame for this outrageous and eX-
travagant expenditure In the way OF leglsla-
tive expenses There are one hundred and
fCty-sIx members in both houses. Tnelr
salary is 5000 per anuum, and their aggregate
pay would be s93 900. The number OF attacnes
are lhirty.two In the House and some eight
teen in the Senate, htty in all. Their average
pay caunot exceed S. per day. This would,
then, be $500 per day, which, multiplied oy
the number of days of the session, ninety
which Includes even the recess, would De

Pub. Docr.

The debate in Congress the other day upon
General Bankss amendment to the CIVIL ap'
propriatlon bill prohibiting the publication Oh
books and documents by government Tor gra-
tuitous distribution was very amusing ana ln-
structive. Congressional documents have
always been favorite means OF conclliating
constituents and keeping the government
printer good.natured. 1t has been iouna easy
at small cost for ambitious Congressman to
mail few thousand patent ONCE reports 10
mechanics, and agricultural theories on DRAIN
age and subsoling to farmers, to Indicate that
these men were the political friends OF their
representative. The only drawback to such III
tie conrtesies is that they are never read, ana
vet thew constitute an enormous dra'n upon lne
national treasury, which the people have 10
nav for. In the light of such notorious iacts,
Mr. Hoar's argument against the amendment
that the people would be deprived OF proml-
neat educator and left to the arrogant teach
ipgs OF the public press, Is pitiiul twaodie.
The ricture ol an enlightened voter turning
from bis live newspaper to be taught oy the
dry aud dreary tones that come from tne
government printer, Ia too ridiculous 10
reason against. Perhaps the tons OF patent
office reports that are distributed through
the gar;ets of the nation might make libraries
according 10 Mr.. Potipbar's plan, or the re-
ports of fagricultural commissioners as Inter-
preted by Mr.. Cox post the farming element
in bucolic classics. But apart from such con.
alterations Mr.. Hoar's system OF national edu-
cation will hardly find general favor, while
General Bankss amendment appeals TO Inc
good sense OF the whole country.

Brandy or Tea.

The question of replacing brandy by an
allowance of tea Ia occupying the serious al
tentlon OF the Russian military authorities.
According to the ViedomoSn, of st. Peters
burg, the Minister of War has submitted the
question to the deliberations of Specialists" "
who, better than any one else, can appreciate
the utility and the results produced by brandy
and tea. The general opinion In military cir
cles ls strongly 10 favor OF the use OF tea; but
It appears to be doubted whether 1t can take
the place of brandy without causing too great
an excess in the budget set down Tor the main
tensnce of the troops. 1t results from ealcu-
lations made by DR.. sIelnberg that an annual
ration of tea and sugar would cost 322 roubles
Is copecks for every 100 soldiers, while
ration of brandy costs only 80 rouoles go CO.
pecks-lhe difference being 2s2 roubles 65 CO.
pecks. The pound OF tea Is estimated at four
francs; and the Russian army numbers, as we
have recently been told, about 100000 men
on peace footing. ills therefore highly pro-
bable that the military authorities will take
some time 10 consider the adVlsablity OF
adopting such costly change.

The bankers and brokers In Wall street
utilized the leisure which fell to them on
washington's birthday by induging In lit'ie
amusement, which though not contained IN
the ordinary routine of either social or Dusl-
ness transactions, was nevertheless Temporal
rily awarded with an emphatic recognition
The sport on this patriotic occasion consisted
of a cock-hght, In which Wall street was
pitted against New Jersey. Fifteen couples
were matched for the occasion, and the PIT
was filed with men who, for tne most paft'
hailed from financial circles. The fighting
was viewed with intense eagerness, and the
bull and bear tendency figured In the per-
sons OF the hackers OF the etags, who were
confident OF the prowess of their game. New
York fought the celebrated Madcaps, bred
from stock which was quoted unsurpassed for
It's belligerent reputation, while New Jersey
showed variety OF straiss not less famed in
the record of the main. There was not little
excitement occasloned by the varying success
of The stags, and heavy odds were offered low
on one side and now on the other. There
were twelve fights, concluding with battle
royaI. at the termination Of which New YORK
was declared The winner amid loud huzzahs
After balancing their sheets, the bankers and
brokers closed the pit and departed for their
hearths and homes amid the best OF humor.

The Manufacturers Bill.

The friends OF enterprise and progress in
Georgia are facilitating themselves, and with
very good reason, upon the judicious action
OF Its Legislature in exerupting from tax
alton, for ten years, the capital invested In
certain manufacturing enterprises which
promise to add greatly to the material ad-
yancement OF the State. South Carolina has
been less fortunate in this respect. A SIM
liar bill was introduced at the recent session
Of the Legislature, and apparently had every
prospect OF an easy passage, as clear ma
iority in each house were 10 favor OF It's pro-
visions, bnt it failed and It's failure, like that
OF the Charleston Water Bill, was the result
simply of the desperate flibustering OF a
small but cunning minority. The bill origi-
mated in the House, and passed that body
without opposition. Thence 1t went to the
Senate, and 1t was found that in that body
two.thirds OF the members were friendly to
The measure, but the hall dozen turbulent
spirits who have opposed almost every SEN
sible scheme that has been introduced,
managed to load 1t with variety OF absurd
amendments, which we're OF course rejected
by the House. In such cases long routine
OF conferences" between the two branches
OF the Assembly Is carried on by means OF
Joint committees, but this Is q process that
requires time, and the delay proved fatal to
the bill. The date OF final adjournment was
fixed and near, the appropriation bill had to
be put through or the members would get no
money, and in the rush and busLle OF the
last dsy's session the manufacturer bill
went by the board.

The Unpaid Taxes.

A circular letter was issued last Saturday,
BY Comptroller-Genera Hoge, to each OF the
county auditors, requiring them to instruct
the county treasurers to proceed at once to
issue executions for the unpaid taxes oil
1s72-73, with the addition OF the twenty per
cent. penalty imposed by law. The county
treasurers will thus be required to make
speedy collection Of all unpaid ta1es by dis
tress or otherwise, the personally OF the tax
payer being required to be first exhausted
before proceeding against his real estate.
The publication Of the lists OF Delinquent
taxes Ia to be commenced on April 18th, and
the sales OF real estate for unpaid taxes are
fixed for May 9Th.

The great strike OF the Welsh colliers and
iron-workers, which has endured for full two
mouths, at last betrays signs OF yielding;
but 1t is only after almost incalculable injury
has been done In the extinction Of blast fur
naces, the flooding of mines, the waste OF
capital, the impoverishment OF thousands OF
poor families, and the prospect OF terrible
fuel famine throughout Britain. The lowest
computation OF the number OF those who,
,nduced by the appeals OF the trades-unions,
struck work In the last week OF December,
puts them at sixty:thousand; and as 1t would
be low average to estimate that each mans
family comprises at least two persons be-
sides himself, it Is evident that nearly or
quite two hundred thousand hungry souls
have been all this time without the means OF
sustenance Indeed, the misery became at
one time 80 palpably grievous that extensive
charities had to be organized to avert i'm
pending starvation and death by cold. The
multitude OF the strikers is said to have re-
ceived In aggregate three hundred thousand
dollars in weekly wages; it is easy to con
ceive in what condition the subtraction OF
this sum would leave the rickety villages and
hamlets which cluster about the mines, and
how nearly they must have approached to
period OF actEal and widespread famine.
The miners have lost two millions OF dollars
In wages, and the unions have only con-
tributed seventy-6ve Thousand dollars TO
their wants.
Scarcely less deplorable have been results
OF the strikes upon capital and production.
One OF the largest industries OF England has
been crippled and the market has been in a
miserable state Of fuctuation aud suspense.
Trade has suffered materially, and, especial
ly in the vicinity Of the strike, the condition
OF the trades-people has been but degree
less deplorable than. that OF the self-victim-
ized laborers themselves. The resumption
oi work, or rather the submission OF the
men. will not restore immediate activity; for
1t takes time to rebuild the fires in the great
furnaces, and to pump out the leaky mines.
And the end OF it all is, that the masters
having proved obdurate, the men are being
forced in large numbers to accept the terms
against which they revolted after all, and to
proceed to their occupations, after total
loss OF two months, at the reduced wages
ordained by the furnace owners.
