Life of Capt. Fry.

Mrs. Jennie Mort Walker bids fair to add
materially to her literary reputation by the
publication of this charming biography.
The subject was indeed most noble enc
and the occasion highly inspiring, but there
are charms in the work quite Independent
of the subject OF occasion. 1t is brimful of
infused interest. The style is captivating,
the narration charming and the situations
dramatic enough to arouse an unflagging
attention.
Mrs. Walker succeeds in clothing her
characters, both the principal figure and
his accessories, with an individuality that
interests the reader. 1t is not only in the
tragic events of noble close, but even in
the familiar scenes of boyhood that the
fascination takes hold of her auditor. Many,
no doubt, will suppose that the work is
c,ap-trap concern, gotten up without labor,
to win a few unearned dollars for the
widow and Orphans kind of literary
slop- without merit except as an ap-
peal to charity. But this would be great
mistake.
So far, at least, as We can judge from the
specimen proof-sheets sent to us, the book
will be found to be q valuable addition to
English biographical literature, simple, I'M
labored, natural in style, but full of the
charm of nature and truth. 1t is not q
philosophy, it is not a poem, not even an
Grafton, but it is drama. 1t invests its
subject with the interest of hero of
romance, and we follow him in his chequered
career as we would fictitious creation of
Scott or Butwer. It is not romance
founded on reality, but reality clothed
with the romance which the eye of genius
detects in every human life.

Throwing up the Sponge.

1t seems to be admitted that Durell has
resigned his judgeship, and it must be
conceded that no other act of any one man
that has occurred within the last ten years
has given SO much satisfaction to orr PEG
pie. The departed Judge is regarded as
the judicial tool without which the usur
patton of our State government by the
President of the United States could not
have taken on legal semblance. People
are very far from crediting the "Viceger-
emit" with the paternity of the "ChaHcsry"
scheme. He is considered to have been
merely plant instrument in the hands Of

Our Lady of Perpetual Help.

Tuesday next, Feast of the Immaculate Con-
ceptien, at P. NJ, procession aud blessing Of
the miraculous picture of Our Lady of Per-
petual Help will take place in St, Alphonsus
Church. This miraculous image or picture
will then be placed at one of the side (tempo-
rary) affairs, with that of the Blessed Virgin,
and exposed for the veneration of the faithful.
This picture is facsimile of the original in
the Church of the Redemptorist Fathers, st.
Alphonsus, in Rome which it has touched.
To-day, at the 10 o'clock Mess in st. Alphonsus',
sermon will be preached on devotion to
Our Lady of Perpetual Help, and the history
of this miraculous picture will be given.
Those wishing to obtain an account of the
origin of the devotion will fnd it in Father
Mueller's interesting little book entitled, Our
Lady of Perpetual Help" This book also con-
tains Novena and Iridium, and copy of the
miraculous picture. Numerous have been the
miracles wrought both in Europe and America
through the intercession of Our Lady of Per-
petual Help, interesting details of which are
related in this little work.
Father Mueller states, IA copy of this
miraculous image hangs in tho very bed
chamber of our Holy Father-the Pope him
self" And, " wonderful to relate. wherever
these copies of the miraculous image have been
exposed to public veneration, miraculous cares
have been wrought and extraordinary favors
obtained from God"

Entertainment in St. yossph's Hall

This Sunday evening, at o'clock, the Cres-
cent City serenaders will give an entertain
ment in st. Joseph's Hall, corner of Common
and Derbigny streets, for the benefit of the
poor visited by St. Joseph's Conference, Society
of st. Vincent de Paul.
Our readers should bear in mind the fact
that, in consequence of the hard times, the
number of our poor has greatly increased, and
that the same cause has operated to reduce, to
o very great extent, the resources of the Con-
ferences of st. Vincent's Society. 1t has been
customary with the Conferences heretofore, to
give to each poor family load of wood q
few barrels of coal at the beginning of winter.
So far this year no Conference, to our know
ledge. has been enabled to follow this most ex-
cellent custom. Some of them have found it
extremely difficult to continue the weekly re-
lief in food, and unless the public come
literally to their assistance, they will be COM
PEELED shortly to suspend even this small bene-
faction.
The st. Vincent Society is not composed of
rich men,-on the contrary, the rich, rule,
hold aloof from it,-they do not wish to be
seen entering the novels where want and mis-
cry reside; they do not care to give up their
elegant leisure,-let them, then, help the So
ciety with that of which God has given them
bountiful supply, and which, according to
the use they make of it, will prove blessing
or q curse.
These remarks we deem appropriate now, as
we see that several of the Conferences are tax
ing steps to replenish their treasures. Their
duty requires that they should leave no means
untried to continue the regular weekly allow
ance to the poor, and they call upon the gen.
erous public to assist them. This the public
can do, not only by sending donations to the
parochial clergy for tho Society. but also by
attending the entertainments given in behalf
of the poor.

If Mayor Leeds Board are disinclined to
second his views, as they appear to be, he
ought to draw the line of demercstion very
plainly between them and himself. They
are very slow about coming up to the
mark. They ought to have refused to adj
journ at their first meeting, until the taxes
were reduced, back taxes stayed, assess
ments ordered to be changed, and bond
holders notified that they would have to
wait for their interest. Not one of those
four things was done then, or has been
done since, or will be done at all, as some
say, until firm measures are taken by the
White Lsaguers or other responsible body
Of citizens.
On the contrary there are persons who
already assert that the new Board of Ad-
ninistrators are acting in the interest of the
bond holders, aud are determined to make
this bankrupt people pay their coupons
punotualiy. We hope that this is q mistake,
but we hope also, that little more dis
patch will be used in letting the public
know about it.
At any rate it is comfort to know that
the Mayor stands all right, and to hope
that his action will correspond manfally
with his sentiments.

scrupuious Presidents President who
habitually sank all the dignity and majesty
of his Office in schemes for party aggran-
dizement and personal enrichment.
AS we say, the adherence in which
Dnrell is holden here, ia not based on any
exaggerated estimate of his power as q
schemer and contriver Of villainies, but on
the opinion that be is thoroughly IN
principled and plant courtier who is ready
to do whatever the liking" commands. He
is of the race of those Knights of old, who,
at the bidding of Henry H., slew the holy
Thomas a Beckett at the foot of the altar.
His resignation, therefore, can be regarded
as nothing but result of the Presidential
will. The stupid intermeddling of Grant
with law matters naturally enough result
ed in grave blunders, and the conviction Of
everybody that such intermeddling was
caused by his contempt for the laws of the
country has raised a storm before which
the Presidents has not the manhood to
stand. He resorts to the despicable ex
pedient of sacrificing Durell as scape
goat. This expedient, however, can only
add contempt and ridicule to the indigna-
ton raised by his reckless degradation and
prostitution of a majestic Office. 1t is
nothing but square back.out by Grant
from bis Louisiana policy, q complete
throwing up of the sponge, coupled with
clumsy attempt to make out that it was
somebody else who was whipped.

ST.. JOINTS CHuRcH.-our readers will re-
naember that this is the day fixed upon for the
selection at Sc. Johns Church, taken in &C.
Gordance with the Most Rev. Archbishop's
circular letter. Gentlemen of the congrega-
tiOn will be at the church door at each Of the
Masses to receive contributions and take the
names of benefactors. 1t would greatly ex-
pedite the business if each person would en-
close his subscription, name and address in an
envelope. contribution of 81 so from each
family in the diocese was mentioned in His
Grace's circular as being absolutely necessary
to meet the pressing wants of the church. OF
course he does not limit the donations to this
amount on the contrary, it is expected that
cach one will give according to the measure of
his ability and the necessities of the case.
Whilst the poor will come with their dollar
and fifty cent bills, it is justly to be expected
that there will be handed in not n few five, ten
and twenty dollar notes.

Our Lady Of Lourdes.
PILGRIMAGE TO HER SHRINE IN ST. MARY's
CHURCH, cARRoLLToN.

Rev. Father valIee, Pastor of st. Mary's
Church, Carrollton, who was in Lourdes last
Summer, obtained permission to economically
establish in his church the Pilgrimage of Our
Lady of Lourdes, with the same privileges and
indulgences which are attached to the Church
of Our Lady of Lourdes itself. Father vallee
now proposes to formally organize the pill
grimage on the 9Th of December, Tuesday next,
Feast of the Immaculate Conception.
The faithful of neighboring parish, St.
Henrys Germany, hearing of the privileges
granted to the Church of the Nativity of Car
rollton, and wishing to testify their devotion
to Mary Immaculate, will make the first pill
grimage to the above named church on the
sth of December.
A procession, composed of the whole congre-
cation of St. Henry's parish, headed by the
pastor, Rev. J. Bogaerts, will leave st. Henry's
Church on the above named day precisely at
IT p. M, and thence proceed on their way to
Carrollton, praying and singing religious
hymns, as is customary at Catholic pilgrim.
ages. On their arrival in Carrollton an ad-
dress, appropriate to the occasion, will be de-
livered in German. Public prayers will be
offered up for the Holy Father and for the
Church, for it is mainly in the interest of their
cause, to obtain speedy triumph of the
Church over her enemies, that this pilgrimage
was projected. When there is prospect of
deliverance through any human agency, it is
but natural that Catholics, whose faith is in
vincible, should turn to God and seek in
prayer that help which the worldly powers
cannot give or refuse to give. Let there be @
regular crusade of prayers ascending to the
throne of God from every part of Christendom,
| and surely the deliversnce of the Church can
not be far off. A
The ceremonies of the day will be closed
with the Papal Blessing which Father Vallee'
has been authorized by the Holy Father to
give on one occasion. ,sas

REV. and dear Father = You will

Chant exclusively for our church. The chorus

in all their lives, and are accustomed to the
cheap second-rate Sunday concert. Perhaps it
is only happy coincidence, but it is o fact-in
