of distinction, thanking me for writing the
Advice to Irish Girls" which has had 30
large a circulation, and which they say has
done SO much good, and I heartily hope that
yet more good may be done by preparing girls
for emigration.
Mr.. Deadly will announce through the press
all particulars. He is also prepared to lecture
and give readings, for which he is especially
fitted, as he is himself gifted poet and scholar,
and has been. for some years writer for our
papers and contributor to one leading Catho-
lie magazine.
cannot conclude without making an appeal
to all who may read this to send for tickets for
my lottery, as this letter will be read by thou
sands in all parts of your great continent. If
every one who reads this sends fer even few
tickets, I would soon have money enough to
pay the girls their weekly wages for working
the exquisite lace which will form an import
ant part of the prizes, and thus food and
clothing will be provided for many poor fami-
lies during the bitter cold winter which has
already begun. Even now the ground is white
with snow, and the grand old Reeks and Man.
perton are covered with the shroud of winter.
We have had no summer in this part of poor
Ireland, and the wet has 80 completely rotted
the potatoes that they are still lying in the
ground, for the farmers do not even dig them.
We shall have a hard winter again, and hope
those who can do SO will send me help for my
poor. If they knew all that was done through
their charity last winter, their hearts would
be full of joy. Hewho gives to the poor lends
to God, and God will repay the loan with q
Thousand fold of interest.
Let me once more beg that each person who
reads this letter will at once send for some
tickets. Those who cannot get Postofiice
orders or checks on banks, can enclose me
paper money for one or more dollars, as they
can afford it. Remember that he who gives at
once eives double. Ask from friends who may
not see this letter to send help.
Yours very sincerely in Christ,
SISTER NJ. FRANCIS CLARE,
Kenmare Ireland.

Progress of the Church in the Country Parishes

Every year, during the visitation of his
Archdiocese by the Most Rev. Archbishop of
New Orleans. there appears in the columns of
orr estimable contemporary, the P,opagaicur
Catholious, a series of letters recording the
progress of His Grace through the country and
the great strides which our holy religion is
making in material as we'll as spiritual point
of view. These letters show the great and
constant labors of our venerable Archbishop
which would do honor to the energy of any Of
our young prelates who were mere children
when his hair was already wbiteEed by many
wears of hard labor in the service of the
Church whose interests and welfare he has
done 90 much to develop and strengthen in
this Archdiocese They also prove that under
his wise administration our country parishes
have all been blessed with pastors of unexcep-
tiouable piety and zeal, and that the Iaity gem
erally have been infused with a new ardor for
the glory and honor of their Holy Mother, the
Church, towards which some had grown cold
and from which others had long strayed. The
last of these letters, published in the PropGgG.
teur of the 18th, we here translate:
BATON ROUGE, Nov. 10, 1873.

The Nun Of Kenmars's Grand Banner for St.
Patrick'S Day.

To the Editor of the Morning Star:
As many Confraternities are anxious to have
this banner in time for ST. Patrick's Day,
gentleman from this neighborhood has most
kindly offered to go out to America to make
the necessary arrangements. He will sail in q
week, and will probably have arrived in tho
States before this letter will appear in print.
Those members of Confraternities who are go
anxious to secure the banner should write at
once to John C. Deadly, Esq, General Post
Office, Boston, Mass, and immediate attention
will be paid to their letters. Mr.. Deadly will
remain some time in America, as Mr.. Sullivan
has returned to Ireland to attend to my bust
ness here.
beg to recommend Mr.. Deadly most respect
fully to the clergy and laity in America, who,
I am sure, will give him every assistance in
his great work. 1t was q true Irish heart
which prompted his generous offer to leave his
own important business and his young wife to
90 on this mission of mercy. But Mr.. Deadly
has long known the needs of this poorest part
of Ireland, and is especially most warmly in
terested in one part of our plan for the benefit
of the poor here-that is, to have home
where girls can be prepared for emigrsting tc
America, and can obtain the necessary advice
| and help for their temporal good as well a
proper religious instruction. This is plan II
which all Glasses and creeds should assist, az
Irish girls are the principal help now in Anne
rican families.

TUE CHINESE MASSACRE.

An insurrection or rebellion has been
troubling China for the cast seven years
China, however, is accustomed to these
'unpleasantnesses. and deals with the
rebels as she expects the rebe's wouid
deal with her troops if the tables WERE
turned. 1t was in feeble imitation OF
her example, that General Forest acted
at Fort Pillow, except his victims were
few in numbers and loyal to their coun-
try, while China's victims were rebels,
and as. to numbers, on a larger scale.
They both inhumanly massacred all antl
every person they could find. Both out
ragged every sentiment Of humanity, but
the excuse, if any, is on the side of the
Chinese. They, less than semicivilized,
as they are, know no better, and believed
it to be honorable warfare, while For
rest professed to carry on .''civilized
warfare" There is, also, a similarity
in the causes for which both were con-
tending. The one was contending for
the increase.of slavery, whose tendency
was to retard the growth, settlement and
the prosperity of the country. The
other, although representing the estab-
lished government, was making wal
against the introduction of foreign trade,
the development of the country, anG
the building of railroads. Success ii
either case was temporarily secured, bu
in the one it was not permanent and W,

trust it will be so in the other. The
Fort Pillow massacre contributed pow
erfully to unite the North, and thus d.
rectly in bringing the complete defeat
OF the rebels. The massacre at Taliforo
will shock the civilized world, and unite
them in demand for the opening of
China to the trade and commerce of the
world.
The details of this Chinese massacre
are wanting, and all that is certainly
known is that Talifoo, the capith of one
of the States in Y.unnan, inhabited, most
ly by Mohamedans, and situated in the
southwest of China, has been captured
by the troops of the Emperor of China
that the victorious troops fell upon and
massacred thirty thousand of the cap
tiyes; and that thereupon, the rebel
Sultan poisoned himself. The rebellion
commenced in 1866, and has been mark
ed by alternate defeats and victories, ac-
companied by terrible slaughter. AT
one time, the rebels appeared i'll the
hClShbOlhOC VI ChlI anu IOI tIIlt
T, threatened its capture, but were finally
repulsed In 1869, the government
troops were defeated. losing some ten
thousand men, but, in the following
year, they were successful and celebratl
ed their victory by. putting to death
twenty thousand captives. In 1870 a
similar victory and slaughter marked
the triumph of the Emperor of China,
which success terminated military move
ments until some year ago, when the ex-
peditioh was entered upon which ended
in the massacre at Talifoo We have
no particulars of the conflict which pre-.
ceded the fall of this stronghold, but
iudging:from the defense made at Shin
yeefoo-where seven thousand persons
were put to death. after the surrender,
and at Sin-chen, where the massacre was
still more horrible-it must have been
desperate, brave and determined. If
such victories can be called glorious, the
new Emperor of China opens his reign
gloriousiy, but we spprehend that twill
prove a glory that will work for the BEN
fit of China, rather than Of him or the
principles he represents.

Convention held its annual session at
! Fairfax, on the Sd inst.
The opening exercise was a praise
meeting of an hour, led by Rev +, J.
Matteson of BrattlebOro.
Rev. W. V. Wilbur, of Saxton's RiN-
er, the President of the last two years,
called upon Rev, j.. s. Webber, pastor
of the Fairfax church, to lead in prayer.
An organization was effected as fol
lows:
President, Rev. ID. Spencer, of Fair
haven; Vice-P President, Rev H. N. Ho-
vey, of Lowell Clerk, Rev W. II.
Rugg,. of Perkinsville; Executive Com
mittee, Rev. Messrs Wilcox of Burling,
ton, Webber Of Fairfax, Glazier OF
Montpelier, Luther of Bennington, and
Bro. j. J. Estey of Brattleboro.
The first address was made by Rev.
Geo, A. Peltz, of Newark, N. j., which
exceedingly racy and instructive,
was ing familiarity with the Sab
discoyei- work, and richness of ex-
bath school ,. ct with. His subject

was The Description STOOL Work.

ers" Nad
Taking the place of one who !.
failed to be prepared, he subsequently
presented the topic How shall we
Gain and Hold the Attention of Pupils ?"
After his remarks he would submit
himself to be questioned by members
of the convention, and by his ready and
apt answers, as well as by his discussion
of topics presented by others, contrbu-
ted very much to the interest and profit
of the session. Rev Geo. A. Peltz win
long be remembered by the many who
listened to his warm, glowing, telling
words to-day.
Other papers followed each of which
was supplemented by earnest, profitable
and sometimes almost exhaustive dis
oussion "How to Study Lesson, by
Rev. d. Spencer; "'What are the ObI-
cations of the Church, of all its Mem
bers, to the Sabbath School p, by Rev.L.J.
Matteson; ''The Best Method of Awak
ening and Developing the Missionary
Spirit in our Sabbath School," by Rev.

terest the Masses in Sabbath School, by
Rev. N. Cyr, of Rutland and last,
"What is the Mission of Sabbath School
Music, and What is its Standard 2" .by
Rev. Mr. Bromley, of MASSACHUSETTS.
This last paper was so very able that
its publication in tract form was IMAM
imously requested by the convention.
The executive board was instructed to
employ, if possible, Sabbath school
missionary for the State, and the con
vention pledged itself to support him.
This session was so full of interest and
power that it was voted to hold the con-
vention two days next year. A hearty
vote of thanks was passed to the people
of Fairfax. for their cheerful ana abund-
ant hospitality, to the railroads for their
reduction of fare, and to l.. K Fuller
for his voluntary. defraylng of. the eX-
penses of the convention for the last two
wears, amounting to $40.
This session was numeronsly attended,
although somewhat rainy all day; the
