Our Banks.

The suspension, of the Citizens Bank
though for some time Anticipated, is
source of great regret to all old residents o.
New Orleans. For many years it has been
a monument of financial power aud success
and an object Of just pride for our citizens
The great war, however, in which the South
was defeated, the war which destroyed all
capital vested in slaves and nearly all the
moneyed value of plantations, shattered
and finally overthrow the great banking
establishment which was virtually based
upon those values. The Citizens Bank
had too much money loaned on plantations
and slaves, to resist eventually the almost
total humiliation which overlook that
interest.
The banking operations of this city, gen.
orally, have shrunk to very moderate pro
portions, comparatively, and not much
paying business is being done. In fact
were it not for the hopes of speedy re-
turn of activity in money, several of the
weaker banks might do as we'll to settle up
their affairs and stop expenses. Not that
they are in any danger of failure, but be-
."uso Vue posihesS 10 unploAlaole III view
of its heavy charges.
There are still by far the larger number,
however, such as the Canal, the Gernania,
the Hibernia and other banks, which stand
on footing of the most complete security
and permanence.- With large capital,
skilful control, and the confidence of de-
positors, they must continue to do profit
able business, even in times of great stag
nation. Indeed it is greatly to be hoped
that none of our existing banks will find it
expedient to withdraw from business, as
there are none too many of them for the
financial needs of this city in a season of
ordinary prosperity.

examples and holy counsels that we feel IL 4
sort of profanation to speak of them liatIvs
But does IL not occur to our Protestant
brethren that the Church which trained m,
these heroes of virtue, stands unrivalled in tba
world-that her doctrine must be holy s;noa
itinspires such unequalled holiness--her NAV.
inns pure, since they form hearts all filed with
purity-her teachings repleto with the spirit
of God, since they show us lives devoted to
the love of suffering humanity, the test by
which the true Christian lie known And
above all, let them mark che sweetness and
charity which inspire the thoughts and words
of the saints. Courtesy is o Christian virtue !;
and we find in all their dealings, respect for
their fellow creatures which symbolled their
respect for the common Father of ell.
We often find Protestants attributipg wrong
motives to Catholics, misrepresenting their
actions, villifying their institutions, and ig-
norng their hottest precepts--without reflect
ing, perhaps, that their course is one never
followed by the saints and one altogether un-
worthy of Christian. When we read these
records of the children of the Church-now
saints of God-we always feel like exclaiming
to those differing from us, All, if they only
knew that Church which they revile SO often,
they would speak very differently!
As Hawthorne says: They are outside of
the painted windows of the Cathedral and see
only mass of paint, without design or beauty
but stand within, and the light reveals pic
ture full of grace and lovelness, telling its
lessons of holiness to the heart as well as to
the eye of man, and filling the soul with ad.
miration for the artists skill.

AUSTRIA AND FREEMAsoNRY.-Whil the
Brazilian Bishops arc condemned to imprison-
ment and hard labor-the Bishop of Para is
just added to the list of Confessors-for Saying
that Freemasons are not good Catholics, the
action of the Austrian Government, which can
not certainly be accused of J." clericalism," is
rather remarkable. 1t has prohibited the
opening of Masonic Lodge at Vienna on the
ground, says the official decree, that the every
principles of Freemasonry, which exact abso-
Lutte silence and secret action, are sufficient
reason for the States refusing to recognize the
legal existence of a Lodge" The Bishops
then of Brazil are condemned to hard labor for
doing much less than the Austrian Government
has done; they, in obedience to the Church,
have inflicted on Freemasonry spiritual disa-
bilities; the Liberal Austrian Government
visits it with temporal disabilities, and pre-
cisely on the same grounds.

APATHY OF ELECTORS IN ITALY.-The recent
municipal elections throughout Italy exhibit a
wonderful apathy on the part of the voters
At Milan, out of ten thousand electors, less
than two thousand voted. At Rome the cleo
tors were IA 600, and only four Thousand came
to the poll. At Ferrara 446 voted The cleo
tors are BIOS in number. In Aucona 235 out of
2lO0 electors voted. At some places not sim
gle voter came forward. The time and place
of voting were duly published. The Syndic
and his secretary were in their posts, and wait
ed with laudable patience for an elector to
come forward and record his vote, but in vain.
The people in certain districts displayed sim
gular indifference, and altogether abstained
from political strife. This total absence of
voters was found both 10 the neighborhood of
Bergamo and in that-of an electoral district
close to Naples.

Ex-Father Hyacinthe.

The split between NJ. Loyson and those who
| lntruded him into the parish of Geneva has
widened into a final breach. He has found out
| that the persons who call themselves Liberal
Catholics are neither Liberals nor Catholics
but tyrants and infidels. For some time past
| there has been open war between NJ. Loyson
and the person calling himself cure of Chene
and covert war between the apostate priest
who wished to retain some sem blance of Cath.
olicisn, and the Superior Council" who
desire to marguerite updisguised Rationalism.
NJ. Loyson therefore throws up his appoint
ment, and writes the following letter to his
friends of the Conseil d'Etat: ATTACHED from
the very depths of my heart to the Church in
which was baptised whose reform wish for
but not its overthrow convinced, besides, by
experience, now sufficiently heightened, that
the Liberal Catholicism of GeHeva is neither
Liberal in politics nor Catholic in religion: I
ave the honor to tender my resignation of my
functions as cure of this city" The effect
which his present step has produced on the
more old-fashioned Protestants at Geneva will
appear from the following Respondent and
somewhat oracular remarks of the ,Josynal de
Genere. owe fear" says that paper, "that the
retirement of this illustrious parsonage will
administer fatal shock to the still young
edifce of the Liberal Catholic Church we fear
that the extreme party will find in it an en-
couragement to pursue its mad enterprise to
the end The future appears before Us in
colors anything but gay. In any case, the
responsibility for this grave event falls entirely
on those pretended statesmen who do not
know how to watt and who in their childish
Impotence, themselves, without the least
serious consideration, destroy tho work which
they fattered themselves would be forever
connected with their name"

The Annual Statement.

Our city papers of the week just closed
gave voluminous statements of the COM
merce of New Orleans for the preceding
twelve months. There was a noticeable
falling off in nearly every article of import
and export, and, yet, it was SO much lees
than might have been anticipated that we
must accept the situation as really very re-
assuring. The diminut of commerce was
by no means proportionate to the extent of
the money panic aud general stoppage of
business that had been experienced during
the period reported. Que result of the years
operations was to show beyond question
that grain shipped from this point reaches
Liverpool in excellent order, sometimes,
indeed, much better than that shipped
from the Atlantic ports.
So far as the statement exhibits the con-
ditiOn of local agriculture, it holds out
bright prospects for the rice producing
interests Of Ei0aisiana. That crop ilas been

by worms and their corn by drought-many

clothes and shoes.

beg that it may be sent to the MORNING
STAR Hall, 116 Poy dras street near Camp,
whence it will be forwarded to the country
to be distributed under the direction of the
Rev. Clergy residing in the impoverished
districts, whose touching recitals of the
Eniseries of their flocks have prompted this
appeal. All kinds of garments for men,
women and children, or materials suitable
for making up into garments will be
thankfully received.
We would particularly call upon the
children of the city, who have had the hap
piness of making their First Communion, to
place In our hands the clothing they wore,

Martial Law.

The substantial feature of Martial Law
lie that it is the local law administered by
military courts or under the influence of a
military occupation. Whenever the de-
crees and process of courts are to be en-
forced by the military, it is virtually a
reign of martial law. This state of things
is intended for rare emergencies only, and
& extremely obnoxious to the public on

now obtained a respectable position in pub
lie attention. 1t proves to be exceedingly
remunerative when we'll milled without
being subject to the diseases and mis-
chances of cotton. 1t has the equal advan-
tage of an unlimited market and will
never need the support of protective
tariff.
After all, agriculture ia the basis of per-
manent prosperity. Commerce is depend
ent on foreign relations SO is manufacture.
The wants to which they minister directly,
in the home population, are few and small
in comparison with the need of food. There
is, too, strength and safety in rural popu.
lations.--If Carthage had enjoyed an ex-
tensive agricultural domain, with a hardy
peasantry and unfailing food supplies, she
would have ruled the world instead of be-
ing left vast and silent ruin by the Roman
armies.
If the whole of Louisiana now subject
to the Mississippi's overflow, her swamps,
marshes and low prairies, were reclaimed
and cultivated in rice, New Orleans would
not need a pound of cotton, or corn y or
meat, to make her the second city in the
Union.

Mrs. Mary Oliver, who claims to be resi-
dent of this city, has been making quite SEN
| sation in some of the Northern cities over the
mysterious disappearance of her daughter
from Convent in Philadelphia. OF course
the Protestant papers have, with their unsual
consistency and fairness, accepted the ex parte
and incomplete statemen: ofMrs. Oliver against
the good name of the Convent, and are wasting
columns in abuse of Catholic educational in
situations generally. A fair sample of these
elegant and truthful articles from the National
Bapttst, will be found on our third page.
The facts in the case, as published in the
Catholic Reriet0 of Brooklyn aud the Catholic
Adrocate of Louisville, not only justify the
Sisters in their course, but prove conclusively
that they could net, legally, have acted other
wise than as they did 1t will also be remarked
that the secular press of Philadelphia, which is
by no means favorable to the church, refused
to give publicty to the case, which had been
Investigated by the Mayor and Judge Paxson.
By means of the Louisville and Cincinnati
papers, and the Protestant press, Mrs. Oliver
has succeeded, however, 10 acquiring most
unenyiable notOriety.

MOBILE, September i, 1874.
10 the Editor of the Morning Star:
Telegraph from Rome says bulls signed yes
terday making Very Revs. A. D. Pellicer and
d. Manucy Bishops JIR-
Both of these reverend gentlemen are
well known in this community, though
heretofore priests of the diocese of Mobile.
Their great success in building up the par
ishes and works entrusted to them in the
past, no doubt gave to the Holy Father
every assurance that the same energy, ca
pacity and zeal would mark their future
careers, and be transferred to their more
extended fields of labor.
These two distinguished clergymen are
both natives of st. Augustine, Florida, of
nearly the same age and descended from
the original Spanish and Greek families
that settled there some three hundred years
ago. If we mistake not, they are cousins,
and now the coincidence of birth, blood,
education, vocation aud field of labor, all
through cemented by the fastest friendship,
is heightened and completed by a simulta-
neous elevation to the Episcopacy. May
God approve and bless the judgment of the
Holy Father.

THE NEW NEGRO sE1,To,

he attended school for time at Ober-
lin, OHIO, entered politics as sergeant
alarms of the Mississippi Legislature.
aud when elected was serving as shar-
if. Some of the Northern papers are
highly tickled at the idea OF former
negro slave occupying the seat il The
Senate once held by Jefferson Davis.
And well they may be, for it is a
triumph of the principles for which
the once fair Union was overthrown,
and under the migltiness of whose
diabolism the country has been groan-
ing ever since. 1t is tho uprising OF
tho debased, the elevation of ignor-
nnce, venality and corruption to places
once made renowned for virtue and
integrity; a befouling of the highest
positions of honor and trust in the
land. Well may the filthy Radical
papers at the North exult. The shafts
of envy always shoot high and JEFrEE-
son DAVIS is a shining mark 1t is
the most natural thing in the world
for the Radicals to exult at seeing an
ignorant negro seated, like buzMrd,
in the chair once honored by one Of
the greatest statesman of the age.
