A PRISONER LYNCHED IN
FRONT OF THE COURT
, - HOUSE.
He Confesses to a Fiendish Out
rage on a Little Girl

CLEVELAND, January l7.-Last Tuesday
afternoon, while little girl, nine years
old. the daughter of j. b. Morgan, of
Trbana, Ohio, was returning home from
school. she was enticed into the woods
by a man who outraged her person in a
most horrible manner. The villain then
commenced building a fire with the in
tention. it is believed, of killing and
burning the chile, when a hunter came
mn and asked what he was doing there.
He made some reply which satisfied the
hunter, who went away. The wretch
then told the girl that as the man had
seen him, ne would have to take her
home He went part of the distance
with her, and left her. She reached
home in the evening in such condition
as to be unable to give any account of
the affair. Next morning she gave the
authorities description of the author
of the crime, and kilograms were sent in
all directions to arrest him, the City
Council offering reward of five hun
dred dollars for his capture.
On Wednesday a man answering the
description was arrested at Marysville,
Ohio, brought to Urbana, and identified.
He made full confession, giving his
name as G. w. Ullery, of Buchanan,
Michigan. He said he was twenty-five
wears old. After the examination dis
position was shown by the crowd to hang
the prisoner at once, and the authorities
had considerable difficulty in getting him
to iail. Thursday night an effort made
to take him from the Jail was prevented
by the guards.
On Friday morning, at an early hour,
a band of masked men, numbering about
forty, went to the Jail, captured and

President Grant, in his message to-
Congress returning the Sherman fnan-

necessity for increased revenue" and
he states thirty.four millions more will
be wanted He therefore recommends
that duty be levied upon tea and coffee.
1t would have exhibited better sense if
the President had recommended cur
tailment of expenses. For example, by
the report of U. s, Treasurer Spinner,
the army and navy for the year ending
June 30, 1874, cost over eighty-five mil

The following are the resolutions offer
ed by our Representative, Mr.. Sherrick,
in the House at Columbus, and which
have passed both branches Of the Gen
eral Assembly. They wer" offered by
Senator Thurman in the U. S. Senate on
Wednesday,
COLUMBUS, o., January 10.
A Joint resolution was introduced by
Mr.. Sherrick, of Stark, as follows:
Whereas, A legislature in Louisiana
has been legally organized according to
the laws of the State; and
Whereas, Said legislature was with a
quorum peaceably proceeding to transact
business for the State, md according to
the laws thereof had settled the dispute
of the contestants, and seated sufficient
number, nd had quorum; and
Whereas. The peaceful proceedings OF
said State legislature were intertered
with, and that body dispersed by mill
tary commander of the United States
army; therefore be it
Resolved, That such interference on
the part of the military with the assem-
bly, of Louisiana was uncalled for and a
high-landed outrage, and an assault on
the reserved right of the State, which, If
persisted in or permitted by the Presl-
dent, will rapidly bring our system OF
government into disgrace, eventually de-
stroy our Republican institutions and
wipe out all personal liberty; and fur
ther be it
Resolved, That we appeal To the Pres
ident of the United States to use his
power and influence to stay unnecessary
interference and avoid the shedding OF
human blood, at least until it shall be-
come apparent that the State is power
less to govern itself; we appeal thus III
the name of the State of Ohio.

Our Catholic Indians in Arizona.

THE "BLAcK GOWNS" THEIR TRUE FRIENDS
| r. A. Wilbur, agent of the Papago Indians
of Arizona, in long communication to the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs, complains that
the Catholic priests are attempting to establish
| o hierarchy among those Indians, and seek to
reduce them to q state of vassalsge; that they
| have declared war against the public school
system, and are in every possible wav oppres-
sing and imposing upon the Indians. The
agent particularly explains that these priests
are not Americans but Mexicans, and that they
differ entirely from the American BRETHREN
San Diego Union.
TUscoN, ARIZONA TERRITORY, Dec. 10, 1874.
Editor Catholic Union, Buffalo, N. z:
Dear Sri would be under muny obligations
to you, if you will publish in your valuable
paper the following remarks in reply to an
article which appeared in the San Diego Union,
of Dec. 9Th, as q special from its Washington
correspondent.
In the first place will say that the charges
made by r. A. WILDER, Papago Indian agent, in
his report to the Commissioner of Indian
Affairs, are false in each and every particular,
and can be proven so by all our honest citizens,
and by fully nine tenths of our population.
Taking now his charges in detail, he says:
The Catholic priests are attempting to estab-
lisa q hierarchy among those Indians, and only
seek to reduce them to state of vsssslage."
Where is the proof 1t certainly does not ap-
pear in the article; but am most happy to
state that the only way the Catholic priests
are, at present, and always have been, trying
to do harm to those Indians is by visiting
them as often as possible, viz; twice week,
preaching to them the Gospel of Jesus Christ,
answering their call either by day or night in
case of sickness, and by attending to their
spiritual wants-all this without any cOmpen
sation whatever.
The Indians referred to, the Papagoes, are
living nine (9) milcs from Tucson, where We |
reside and il is no trding labor for rs to visit
them regularly, besides being q source Of ex- |
pense to us every year. For all this we receive |
only the gratitude of the Indians; this 10 our |
only earthly reward, and if this is reducing |
them to o state of vassalsge, fail to under |
stand the meaning Of the word.
The agent also says, that the priests are Top
posed to the public school system." What |
i public school system does the agent meant
cannot say-If he refers to the system estab-
lished among the Papagoes, it is known TO
everybody that we are in favor of it, as it is
one of our own institutions, though supported +
by Government. Tho school is directed by
four (4) Sisters of st. Joseph, three of whom I
wero brought from st, Louis, No., to Arizona
at my own expense. On the contrary, far
from being opposed to this school, we are '

Especial Correspondence of San Francisco Chronicle
LoRETTo, November 1, 1874.
The facts in the history of the Holy
House of Loretto are 80 astounding that
no man in his right mind is expected to
credit them, without proofl Fortunately,
proof corroborating every statement that
has been made concerning the miraculous
flight of the House is on record, and the
story as it is now told, may be accepted as
authentic, though it is, without doubt, un-
paralleled in the annals Of these years of
our Lord. What happened before the
Christian era doesn't corcern us personally,
and we won't trouble ourselves about it to-
day. believe it is generally acknowl-
edged that nothing proves itself. Tradition
alone proves the authenticity of Scriptures.
From Scripture and tradition we learn that
a virgin named Mary, espoused to man
named Joseph, was visited by an angel
who saluted her in her house at Nazareth
and prophesied that she would miracul-
ously bear the divine child she bore, and
that the holy family returned from Egypt
after the death of Herod and resided at
Nazareth until the child Jesus began his
teachings in his thirteenth year. It is
natural to suppose that the apostles, who
30 loved their Divine Master that they for
sock all to follow him, should reverence
the humble house that had sheltered him
during his childhood there can, therefore,
be little doubt that the house in Nazareth
reverenced as the Holy House was
