immensely stronger through the fam
jliarity with its workings produced by
the war. The rancor of Knox and Cal
vim and Wesley can never again infuse
enough strength into q movement to
make it formidable. The serpent is too
old to have much vitality in its venom.
But supposing there were far more cause
than there is to fear the formation of a
powerful coalition against us, should we
for that reason forego the bold and en-
phatic assertion of our rights Recourse
to actual war in defence of temporal rights
is unwise and wrong whenever hopeless,
but recourse to peaceful protestation is a
different thing. Without it there is viz
tually an abandonment of our claim. A
powerful enemy may expel you from your
farm, and it might be an act of folly and
crime in you to oppose him with violence,
being utterly unable to cope with him, but
if you entered no protest aud had NO re,
course to peaceful remedies, your neigh
bors would be justified in eventually treat
ing the intruder as master Of rights which
you had abandoned.
No! If we can't make the public re-
spect our rights, let us at least energeti-
cally assert them in all peaceful ways. IF
this is right; we need not be troubled about
consequences. Agitate, agitate. Even Ire
tand gained by peaceful, persistent agita-
ton. The worst tyrants have always
something left of shame.

Dead and Buried.

The Unifcation movement was short
lived. 1t has given up the ghost. It died
natural death. We accept it's death as
can accomplished fact" 1t may rise again
to political life in another form. While we
have nothing further to say over it's ashes,-
"de mortuis nihil nisi bonum," we cannot
offer our condolences to its surviving
friends and if the movement should re-
turn to life again we shall oppose it again
with all the strength of conviction.-A
few newspapers barked at our heels be-
cause we did oppose it. But we are not in
the habit of turning our headssto notice
any thing of the barking class.

ANGELA.-Iu this number commence the
publication of beautiful new story with the
above title. 1t is peculiarly suitable for young

that class will fail to read it. As some person
never begin a serisl story in a newspaper, fear
ing that it will be prolonged to an uncon-
scionable length, We will state that this story
will only occupy about eight numbers of the
paper. Speaking of it aud another story by
the same author, Bro,cnson's Rerie,c says:
We like" Angela the best of the two, as
the more delicate, graceful and refiued An

If conversions from Professionalism to Roman
Catholicism take place occasionally, it is
equally true that conversions from the papal
| church to the Protestant occur. 1t is reported
that recently an entire congregation of Ger
man Roman Catholics in Baltimore requested
to be placed under the episcopal oversight of
Bishop Huntington.
The Christian AdUocate of this city pub
fishes the above in it's " Religious Intelli-
gence." A whole regiment of newspaper
men have been searching in vain for this
German Catholic congregation. The Free
mans Journal suggests in regard to the
fishy story, that the converts belong to the
fnny world and are to be found in some
Northern lake OF other. Will the Advocate
be kind enough to tell US something more
about the congregation, how numerous it
is, its name, location in Baltimore, ETC.,
etc. If our neighbor should venture upon
some sucH paFticulars We promise to prove,
to it's satisfaction, that no such wholesale
conversion took place.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN BALTIMoRE.-Friday
morning 25th inst, at ten oclock,a fire broke
out in planning mill on Clay street, between
Liberty and Park, Baltimore. A stiff south
west breeze was blowing at the tinle and the
flames spread with wonderful rapidity, de-
stroying eight entire blocks of buildings be,
fore they were checked by the city firemen who
were assisted by several companies from Wash
iDgton and neighboring towns. At four o'clock

ChuEehes were among the buildings destroyed
Protestant churches, we believe, as the reports
mention no Catholic church as destroyed,
though both the Cathedral and the splendid
church of st. Alphonsus were on fire at differ
emit times, but were saved by the almost SUI
perhuman efforts of citizons who were on
watch. Reports are circulated that several
lives have been lost, but strict enquiry fails
10 confirm them.

" THE HOME,p

Before the meeting, the annual examination
of the boys in the Home was held. The boys,
one hundred ia number, appeared healthy in
good spirits and neatly clad. The exercise
proved that under the fostering care of the
Fathers and Brothers of the Holy Cress the
children were progressing rapidly. From
| among the number of speeches. dialogues,
| songs, etc., we cannot refrain ffom expressing
our unqualified admiration of the inimitable
manner in which Master P. Reynolds sang
Medicine Jack" and Master j. J. McCane
I've no mother now" By the former the au-
dience was kept in one continued roar of
laughter, while the latter drew tears from
many of the stalwart men who were present.
The Home is large building situated at
No. 81 Benville street. It belongs to and is
under the patronage of the Society of st. Vim
cent de Paul. Destitute boys under thirteen
years Of age are received here, their moral
intellectual and physical wants being provided
for under the direction of the Fathers of the
Holy Cross. AS the boys advance in age and
size they are transferred to the Farm, near the
Barracks, where they are taught agriculture
shoemaking, bread-making and other trades.
Up to the present time, the Home has been
supported by the Society, with small donations
from the City and State and such sums as tho
friends or relatives of the boys can afford to
give. Owing to the failure of the two last
Legislatures to makes appropriations, and the
general hard times, the Home to-day is without
dollar in its treasury, and unless something
is done to raise funds within the next three
months, it is probable that at least fifty boys
will have to be turned out again on the streets.
That the Home is managed with the least pos
sible expense is proved by the faot that for
the support of 100 boys for a year, the whole
cost, including the pay of teachers and SER
wants, etc., was $6,4a6 10. To accomplish this
result, however, not only was the strictest
economy required, but many necessary i'm
provements had to be postponed. Thus two
or three boys are obliged to sleep in q bed,
when the expenditure of few hundreds of
dollars in the erection of wing to the build
ing would give ample room for all.
The public are invited to visit this institu-
ton AS also the Farm and if anyone, after such
a visit, thinks that there is greater work to
be done than that of saving the poor boys"
in which these two institutions are engaged,
we would like to know it, that we might give
it publicity.

IL Is somewhat remarkable fact that
in almost all other parts of the world, two
thirds of the income,of the Society .issdefived
from donations of persons not belonging to it,
the other third being received from members.
whereas here, as the above and all other re-
ports show, exactly the reverse is the case No
doubt this is to be attributed principally to
the ignorance of most Catholics with regard
to the Society, and the many spiritual benefits
to lie derived by them from an association
with it as "Benefactors." We have, on several
occasions, strfven to enlighten them these
points, but it would seem that little else than
cases of death from actual starvation can
make some people remember that "the poor
you have always with you"
