What Rome Would do if She Dared

The meaning which Romanists attach to the
teaching OF their Church concerning the suprema-
cy of the Pope, as augmented by the decree of in
fabity has been betrayed by writer in a recent
number of the Dublin ReUieto; journal which, as
our readers know is a representative Roman Catho-
lie organ, and is not wont to speak gnorantly on
any subject connected with the hierarchy or its
claims. In the course of an article writer in the
ReUieao said " The Pope, IN virtue of has ecclesi-
dSticaL office, has the pOSoer Of depOSing any 500
eregn 0hOSe government he may consider injurious
to the spiritual toelfdre of that couat1y' This is
the whole OF the case 10 q nutshell. Nothing that
the bitterest opponent OF Rome could say by way
Of characterization of the presuDptuous preten-
sions of the Pope, could be more to the point or
more condemnatory. 1t amounts to just this: Any
Government that he, e. the Pope, may consider
iajurtoaS TO tbe spiritual welfare of country, may
be deposed by him and another substituted
What then, let Americans ask themselves, would
become Of the Government of every Protestant
country-of England or of the United States for
nstance-it this asserted power to overturn gov
ernments and override their constitutional forms
reside 10 the hands of the Pope? The Publica.
ton of such an ascription of power to the Pope,
by leading Romish periodical, indicates the uu-
dercurrent of Roman Catholic opinion and betrays
its secret wishes and Intentions Every man must
feel that the reservation to himself by the Pope
of such power, to be asserted whatsoever pro
pitious occasion arises, constitutes him the public
enemy of mankind-the universal foe OF civil
government, Of the allegiance of people, of pa
triotism, and of law aud order Christian Intel
HgenCer.

Cool and GOOd-Dr. Strickland, in the Methodist,
gives some items from his autobiography. Take
this as a sample:
81 once travelled twelve miles to an appointment
where was stranger. After meeting waited
for an invitation from some of the members to 90
home with them. None came near me with that
intent and as they were leaving, | thought, like
the boy in the storm, something must be done, "
so going up to plain, sober looking man, | said ::
Won't you go home with me to dinner?' He
looked surprised, and asked me where | lived.
Only twelve miles from here" replied %,
said he, comprehending the situation, you come
home with me, live near at hand. Of course
accepted the invitation, and parook of his hospi-
talities

Admit no more than twenty male
and ten female members at the organi
zation Of new Grange.
The precise formula, as laid down in
the ritual, must be observedin opening,
closing and initiatory ceremonies.
The constitution makes no difference
in regard to sex Of members; there
fore, ladies are eligible to any office in
the Grange to which they are duly
elected
An appeal from rulings Of Master OF
Subordinate Oranges on Constitutional
questions to the members Of the Grange
is improper. Such appeal must be
made to Worthy Master of State

right. !.
In organizing new Oranges admit
none as charter members but those
who are actually engaged in farming,

derived from that source. The wives

PROFITABLE BUSINESS FOR WOMEN.
One of the most profitable as well as
interesting kinds Of business for wo-
man is the care of bees. In recent
AGRICULTURAL report it is stated that one
LADY bought four hives for ten dollars,
and five years she was offered one
thousand five hundred dollars for her
stock, and refused it as not enough
In addition to this increase OF her cap
ital in one of these five years she sold
twenty-five hives and four hundred
and twenty pounds of honey. 1t is
Also stated that in five years one man,
from six colonies of bees to start with,
cleared eight thousand pounds of honey
and fifty.four colonies.
When properly instructed, almost
any woman in the city, as easily as IN
the country, can manage bees, and
make more profit than in any other
method demanding so little time and
labor. But in the modes ordinarily
practiced, few can make any great
profit in this employment.
1t is hoped time is at hand when
every woman will be trained to some
employment by which she can secure
to herself an Independent home anC
means to support family, in case she
does not marry, or is left a widow, will
herself and family to suppOrt.-Amer
