diction, but the property of the Austrian
Government; SO that from this point he in
tends to throw his darts at the German Con-
stitution; it is An experiment, and it remains
now to see how it will work.
Qlite Interesting has been the case of the
Bishop of Cologne, whose furniture was seized
last week and sold at auction the sum real
lied did not equal the amount of his fines.
consequently they seized his horses, which sold
for a very low price, the purchaser, however,
drove them immediately to the Bishops palace
and presented them to him; the authorities
were informed of this, when they made Sec
ond seizure of the horses, which were again
conducted to the palace by the purchaser as q
gift to the Bishop; this was repeated until the
authorities had satisfied their claim, and now
the Bishop has his horses still in possession.
Such being the results of the case. it is not
expected that another friend will spend 80
much money and receive SO little satisfaction,
since the Bishop was not in town on that day
and knew nothing Of what was going on.
The majority OF the German Catholic Bish-
ops are members of Parliament, 80 an interest
ing session may be e1peeted. They intend
with the assistance of the anti Government
party, to oppose the imperial orders respecting
religion, also the law concerning tho public
press, which they consider as their chief
weapon of defence.
THE oLD-CATHoLICs.
The laws in the different German States pro-
vide that the religion of each subject-must be
registered and since the respective States have
Catholics, have consequently recognized the
sect itself accordingly orders have been is
sued, that any subject who processes Old-Ca-
tholicism must present himself to the respect
i've authorities and be registered as such as
yet very few have presented themselves, and
the increase goes on slowly. Bishop Reinkens
and his priests are bard at work for their be-
lief, while the Ultramontane priests and Jes-
uits are laboring against them hence it may
be inferred that they are converting bat very
few. w.

St. Patrick's Day in Mobile.

MOBILE, March 18th, 1874.
Having noticed tho absence of correspond
ence from this city to your highly appreciated
journal, have ventured to send you a few
brief notes touching upon the celebration of
| of st. Patrick's Day here yesterday, by the
| several societies of Irishmen.
Notwithstanding the heavy fall of rain for
two or three days previous, and the conse-
quent terrible condition of the streets, in ad-
dition to the threatening state of the weather,
the professions were much larger than hereto.
fore and shown to greater advantage. Why
speak of mud and rain when the 18th of
March, Ireland's national holiday, arrives.
That undying and unequalled love of country
which every Irishman bears for his native
land stirs his heart and forces him to common
crate the memory of Ireland's patron saint
who redeemed the Milesian race from their
superstitions and taught them the doctrines of
the True Faith.
At about 10 o'clock the procession began to
form on Government street, and proceeded to
st. Patricks church., in the northern part of
the city, where High Mass was celebrated by
the Very Rev. A. D. Pellicer, v. G., assisted by
the Rev. J. J. Browne, Rev. Father Tracy, Rev
Father Murphy, Rev. Jno. Keller, Rev. P. I'm
sand, S. j.; Rev. Father Olivier, S. j.. Rev.
Mr.. O'Connon, S. j.. Rev. D. O'Meara Rev. C.
T. OCallaghan, and others. Here the Sisters
of St. Joseph presented each society with mag
nifcent floral offerings, with which the banners
were beautifully decorated. Presentation and
reception speeches were feelingly rendered by
Miss Ella Cummins and Master James Dolan.
Rev. Father McDonough of Tuskaloosa, de-
livered most eloquent and instructive lecture
upon the appropriate and prolific theme of st.
Patrick. The procession fell into line in the

After most cfeditable parade the Societies
repaired to the Battle House for dinner, and
the members were thoroughly prepared to do
Justice to that splendid banquet. Toasts and
speeches, national and local were INDUCED in,
and sprinkled with that keen wit for which
the Irish are so noted. The Cleburne Guards
are deserving of special mention for their SOL
dierly appearance and efficiency in the difficult
evolutions and manual of arms which they
manifested upon this their first parade. They
have neat uniforms of gray trimmed with
green, and beautiful caps of green, thus blend
ing the gray and the green. Upon each strap
plate or buckle is the harp of Erin surrounded
with the Shamrock. After dinner the Cleburne
Guards serenaded Col. John Higley, Capt.
Williams of Mobile Rifle Co., and then the
Clergy at the residence of Right Rev. Bishop
Quinlan. OF st. Patrick's Benevolent Associa-
ton it is useless for me to speak. They ap-
peared, as they alwayo do, neat and creditable
rejecting honor upon their countrymen. The
other societies were equally impressive, and
taken all in all, the celebration was one of
which any nation would be justified in feeling
proud. And be it said to the credit of our
Irish population, that your correspond dent did
not see of them under the influence of
liquor. PAT.

Judging from the crowds who daily attend
the exercises Of the Novena Of the Compassion
of the Blessed Virgin, now going on in all our
churches, we must admit that this devotion is
deeply cushrined in the hearts of our Catholic
population and holds prominent rank.

Post and Mail replies as follows:
The unfounded insinnations against Sec

that DR.. Lawrence voted as he did from

The resolutions could have been passed
Immediately, and would have had moral
