November, to make arrangements III
connection with the committee ap-
pointed by the Trustees to superintend
the counting of the tags representing
the numbers of tickets sold. While
there is no actual necessity for the

time | would greatly prefer that as
many OF those interested as can, would
attend this meeting aud see each for
himself how perfectly fair and impar-

Every arrangement has been made
for the drawing-but little more than
month remains for the sale of the
remainder of the tickets, and whatever
is done must he done promptly.

Protestant Bgotry Catholic Libsrality, Show
in tho English Elections.
From the London Register !,

A Low Church organ, called the Rock,
true to Protestant bigotry, exults over the
fact that throughout England, Scotland and
Wales, not one Catholic has been returned
to the House of Commons at this general
election. Our contemporary is welcome to
the fact, SO discredtable to the "enlight-
ened Liberalism and "tolerant Protest
antsm," of Great Britain. We proclaim
it, and will, please God, long continue to
proclaim to the civilized world that Prot
estant England is 80 stepped in religious
bigotry, that among her five hundred and
fifty-five representatives in the Lower
House of the Imperial Parliament not one
Catholic has found a place. Turn we now
to Catholic Ireland, and behold the glorious
contrast. Perhaps the two most thoroughly
Catholic counties in Ireland, numbers be-
ing the test, are Galway and Tipperary
and at the election, now terminated, these
two counties have sent four Protestant
representatives to the House of Commons,
rejecting Catholic candidates in their IA
vor. Glare, likewise, has returned two
Protestants, the Catholic interest there also
being supremacy dominant. Catholic Kerry
has returned two Protestant members
Cork county has returned one Prot
estant; Limerick city another and so has
Meath, and SO has Kilkenny city; in each
ofthese places the constituent power being
in the hands of the Catholics Here we
have frelre PrOtsstdnts chosen by Catholic
constituencies in Ireland, while in Great
Britain not one Catholic has been elected by
Protestant constituency. But the con-
trast thus presented between the liberality
of the Catholics, and the narrow minded
bigotry, and intense intolerance of Pro-
testantism, 80 glorious to Ireland, and SO
disgraceful to England, wants an addi-
tional tint of fact to make it more con-
spicuous, and Huntingdonshire supplies it.
There, Lord Robert Montagu, a nobleman
of high character and of a high order of
intellect, highly cultivated, has been re-
jected for no other reason than because,
exercising that right of private judgment
upon which the Protestant Church of
Eng is founded, he became q Catholic
Such is the boosted liberty of British Pro-
testantism, and such, as shown by the re-
turn of twelve Professionals by Irish Catholic
constituencies lin several places in prefer
ence to Catholic candidates), is the bigotry
of that Catholic religion, which, according
to the venomous old Durham Letter Writer
and Chalking BoJ-what did he VI
" cramps the intellect and debases the
mind"

break that will scatter them in every dir
ection. Great things are looked for from
the people of this mighty country. If we,
my friends, are only faithful to the oppor-
tunities which God has given us, then
when the day comes, God helping us. with
Peters successor to guide US, with the
revelation of Christ blazing in it's bright
ness before our minds, we shall defy inf
deity and the united powers of persecution
and tyranny, like the martyrs of old-like
the martyrs of to day-like those men of
Germany that stand firm and defy the
power that has proved itself the mightiest
of these days-like these brave men and
women of Germany, slow to begin, but
terrible in their steadfastness-like them,
when the time comes we shall stand by
Gods Church, and defy the powers of
earth and conquer the powers of hell.

and kept up, with intermission and changes
of place, till midnight, the city being dis
tricted and allotted to the various delega-
tons into which the working force of
clergy and laity were divided. The worst
three Protestant bishops who have author
ity in the city, the bishop of London, the
bishop of Rochester and the bishop Of
Winchester, not only approved the enter
terprise, but heartily and earnestly CO.,
operated in it. The enterprise was con-
trolled by the bishop and clergy of the
establishment, though, we believe, dissen-
tiers were permitted TO take part in it. The
origin of the enterprise was the Center
street services, begun by the Ritualists a
few years ago in small way, but now
adopted by the established Church and
expanded into a colossal programme.

called Z" the new prophet Elias, commits
stoned by God to destroy idolatry." He
made no secret of his intention to commit
the sacrilege of outraging the Blessed Sac
rament, and of his purpose, likewise, to
make an attack on some priest when in the
pulpit. His acquittal for his late crime
has created profound sensation, for he was
considered to be in full possession of his
senses, and we'll able to distinguish ri ght
from wrong. His fanaticism seems rather
that of the Whalley and Newdegate type,
carried to an excess which would not be
tolerated in England.
THE rArAL COURT.
A paragraph is now going the rounds of
the Protestant journals, concerning the
alleged magnifcence of the Vatican estab
lishment. According to this veracious list
of the Pope's servants, his Holiness has
altogether one thousand one hundred and
sixty persons attached to his Court, not
counting the Sacred College composed of
about $50 members. The paragraph con-
cludes with observing that such train of
courtiers is not too bad for prisoner
I exposed daily to the cruelties and hardships
inflicted on him by the modern Neros."
The Foee takes the trouble to correct the
list of Papal officers. 1t appears there is
but one major domo, not twenty nine.
The 100 domestic prelates must vanish
altogether, for their title is purely honor
ary, and they reside in all parts of the
world in their own homes and not at the
Vatican. The same is to be said of the 27O
privy chamberlains, whose Office is honor
airy merely, and of whom only five or six
attend at the Vatican. The six lay privy
chamberlains who hold great Court Offices,
the $50 supernumerary privy chamberlains,
and the 200 honorary chamberlains, pos
sess merely titles Of honor, and only five
or six take regular turns of duty at the
Vatican. The Noble Guards are not ninety
as alleged, but only thirty, and they
include several who perform no service.
The fourteen officers of the Swiss Guard
must be reduced to four. The seven pri-
waite almoners dwindle to one. There are
but two secretaries instead of twenty, and
one Master or Controller of the Household
instead of ten intendents." Anyone who
looks at the "Famiglia Pontiicia," or other
book giving details of the Vatican Estab-
lishment, will at once perceive that all
these chamberlains, chaplains, and prelates
are honorary officers, living in England,
France, Germany, Spain, Austria, and in
Australia and America. Most of them are
Bishops and canons, or Catholic laymen of
literary or political celebrity.
THE POPE.
His Holiness continues to enjoy excellent
health, and has received Populations and
given audiences as usual during the past
week. His address to the Lent preachers
was remarkably clear and encouraging. He
counselled them to speak firmly, yet mod
erately, the great truths of the Gospel, and
to place confidence in God for the result of
the present grievous war against the Holy
Church.-London Tablet.

THE sACRILEGE IN TURIN,

One Giuseppe Pittarelli, man aged
sixty years, struck down with a stick or
cane the Blessed Sacrament upon the High
Altar in the Cathedral of Turin. This
outrage was committed on the 18th of
November last. The tribunal, before
which the offender was tried, acquitted
him on the ground of religious monomania.
Pittarelli, when ayouth, because possessed
of Bible without note or comment, and
being ignorant and unlearned, soon found
his religious ideas shaken, and he protested
himself an unbeliever. He was fond of
resorting to clergymen of every denomina-
ton to ask them to solve his doubts and
discuss with him difficult texts. He then
conceived hatred for priests and commit
ted some outrages. In ls4S he knocked off
the hat of Canon Brixio, and in 1862 he
broke a statue of the Madonna. He was
then arrested and imprisoned as lunatic.
But the keeper of the asylum declared him
to be more knave than fool. He was sub
sequently set free. In 1873 he published
in Turin a book, entitled The Mission Of
the Prophet Elias, and another entitled
Defence Of Giuseppe PittGrelIi, who is
