CATHOLIC BRfDEs-h New Yoyk cor
respondent of the Buffalo ComlreyTcag- i'd
1er1iSer writes: The number of Protestant
young ladies Of elevated social position who
have voluntarily embraced the Roman
Catholic religion OF late in marrying has
created considerable comment and given
life 70 sort of genteei slang, expressed
III two owords-'Cathoiic brides.'' There
have been many stories told Of determined
daughters and heart broken mothers and
fathers, and the stories were not without
their effect. Since Easter four New York
ladies have become Catholics in ORDER to
become wives; and Colonel Smith, who
married n daughter Of tho late Horace
Greeley, became member of the Church
of Rome, at the solicitation of his fHaucee.
Then a niece of w. b. Astor married a
Catholic so did Miss Appleton, daughter
of the publisher Miss Niles, who married
Consul General Badeau last week and
Miss Morgan, who married Spaniard.
Love, they say, is blind, and Cupid knows
no religion; nevertheless, these convert
marriages have caused the cornerstone of
society to shake perceptibly, and the re-
Joicing among archbishops and priests is
only surpassed by tie chagrin Of ministers
and rectors.

Reechcr on Cardinal NJ C2Oshey.

DR.. McCloskey is no more dangerous as
Cardinal than he was as Archbishop nor
as Archbishop than when be was as bishop,
nor as bishop than when lie was q simply
priest. These offices in this great and yen-
cradle sect were not invented for the sake
of plaSuiug Americans and Ptotestahts. -
They have been for ages Il part of the ma
chnery of Church organization. The Ro-
man Catholic Church is to receive Christian
courtesy and liberation, not because 1t has
not yet developed all its polity among us.
but on the broad ground of the liberty of
men to worship God after their own reason
and conscience This Church is no more
aggressive with an American Cardinal at
at its head than it was before. 1; is a mat
ter with which Christians of other sects
have nothing to do. 1t is the domestic
business of this great mother sect, with
which sister sccts have no right to meddle.
In one respect. certainly, all generous
Christians should be thankful, that for the
first Cardinal in America there should have
been selected a Christian gentleman of
great personal worth, of simplicity of life,
unostentatious fidelity. and most dcvout
Christian disposition. If any man could
win the sympathy and confidence of Chris
tians of other sects, the first Cardinal will.
That the Roman Catholic Church of Amer
ica has developed one stage further in its
organic form is matter chiefly concerning
its own members but that the man Sc
iected to represent this great Church should
be a man of universal sympatlics, of gen
tie heart, good citizen, friendly neigh
Dor, in short, good man, is benefit to our
common Christianity.
For ourselves, we have no fears of the
undue predominance of the Roman Church
in America. II its clergy and members,
in 4 fair field, can gain an ascendency over
Protestant sects. by better preaching, great
er industry, a hoier zeal, more wisdom
aud perseverance, it is their right and duty
to do 50. They who live the best lives,
and do the best work, have a right to pos
scss the land. Meanwhile should another
Cardinal or two he needed, we shall not be
au med or troubled. 1t is not for the Pope
to consult poor Protestant minister, lat
&c suggest our former schoclmase, the
Archbishop of Baltimore, as one well built
for the robe and hat, and acceptable to
liberal Protestants. We used to roll him
over on the foot ball green. and should not
fear a Christian hug with him on the fairer
field of Christian enterprise. May the
blessing of God rest on all who love our
Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity ard truth -
Christian Union.

GEN. JoHN c. BRECKENRIDGE died
at his residence in Lexington, XIV, on
Monday last, in the 55th year of his
age. He was major in the Mexican
war-was elected to Congress in 1850
and reelected in 1852 from the Ash
land, or Henry Clay's district, as it was
called, defeating two Of the most dis.
tinguished and popular Wings in the
State, Charles S Morehead and Leslie
Coombs. In 1856 he was elected Vice
President-in 1860 was the candidate
of the Southern wingof the Democratic
party for President, and in 1861 suc-
ceeded John j. Crittenden in the
United States Senate A fter the out
break Of the rebellion he took part
with the South and served as Major
General during the war An article
on his death in the Philadelphia Times
concludes as follows: Like most
of the soldiers of the South, when he
surrendered his cause he gave manly
obedience to the new duties he accented
and was faithful to the government
that triumphcd over him in the f;eld
While his death will be widely regret
ted throughout the South, in the great
North there will be a generous judg-
ment for the brilliant, chivalrous and
fallen Vice President of the Union and
soldier of the Confederacy."

THE ILL-FATED "SCHILLER.E-T
were many sad scenes at the Office of the
agents of the ill fated Schiller, in New
York, Saturday, when persons having
friends on board applied for information.
Mr.. Chas. Schuer, "a barber, had sent his
wife and only child abroad. lie grasped
the uieagrc list of saved, ran his eye down

his head from bursting. An elderly gen.
tleman came in in great excitement, az an
early stage of the affair, read the slip with
the first information that but four had
been saved, staggered for moment and
fell, sobbing loudly and deeply on settee
near by lie was brother-iu-law OF Mr.
Kornblum, who, with his wife and three
children, had been passengers on the
steamer In the afternoon two German
workn g-men called in, asking eagerly for
the very latest news. 1t was shown them,
simply that 200 had been lost and about 40
saved, and no names as yet. The chances
two men were friends and neighbors.
Each had given his wife the pleasure of
tri to the fatherland with the little ones,
while the head of the family STAYED at
home attending to business demands. The
wife of one, Mrs. Fannie Evans, was ac-
companied by her only child, while the
other lady. Mrs. Susan Duckfield, had
with her four children. The two fathers
had but little to say. They we4e utterly

a CoNTRAsT.-Mr. Charles Parrish, the
president of the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre
c"al and iron company, is perhaps as much
interested in the present strike as any man
in :he State, and his men are all out, but
he has adopted a wise plan of sending pro-
visions to his men to enable them to hold
ont against himself and the other coal oper-
ators, until the great question is decided as
to who shall win. This humane policy
will prove better safeguard to his coal
property than thousands of dollars spent
i'll employir G watchmen and police guards,
and will promote his interests in every
other way among the workingmen, who
VIII contia asst his actions with those of Mr..
Gowen, who has doubled his force of watch
men at the breakers, and employs hundreds
OF men IN this comfy to do guard duty.
Mr: Parrish also knows that in proportion
as he grows strong his opponents will be-
come weakened in this contest, and leaving
the question of humanity entirely out, his
plan must be pronounced trnIy wise.

THE MosT AUDACIoUs ROBBERY OF THE
SEAsoN.-The St. Louis Democrat has
special from Clinton, Henry county, Mis-
souri,, giving an account OF daring rob-
Der, committed in that county last Thurs
dav d. B. Lambert keeps country store
twelve miles north of Clinton. 1t stands
alone on a prairie. has croqUet ground i'll
the rear of the building, and is the resort
of young people of the neighborhood.
Thursday morning about II o'clock two
strangers rode mp, entered the store and
were shortly followed by two other stran-
gers. As soon as the latter entered the
store the first two drew reyolvers, and com
manded Lambert to stand. The other two
men went to the croQue. ground where
eight gentlemen and ladies were playing,
ordered them into the store, where they
were guarded by three of the strangers
willie the fourth robbed the store of 5000
cash. fine watch, ot-gun, two revol
vers and quantity of goods. They then
left in the direction OF Clinton. All were
we'll dressed, genteel looking men, well
armed and mounted on splendid horses.
The robbery was done SO quietly and
ouickIy that blacksmith working one
hundred yards distant knew nothing of
the matter until the affair was over. A
gentleman living near Clinton says he saw
and convcrsed with two of the Younger
brothers last Tuesday, and from this fact
the robbery is attributed to the Younger
ard James brothers. No effort has yet
been made to arrest the robbers, and the
dispatch says its not likely there viii be.

REMARKABLE METEoR.-Thc Rochester

4 BOYS TERRIBLE LEAP.-In the rear
Of Arthur Dubuit's hotel in Marlborough,
lister county, y. Y, is a gorge 200 feet
deep. Immediately behind the hotel tile
bank slopes down about 125 feet to a ledge
of rocks, and from there to the bottom of
the gorge the bank Is almost perpendicular
and is covered with moss and q Shiny subs
stance, with water oozing from the crevices
If the rocks. A few days ago Mr.. Eg5ert
Hall. while standing on the piazza in the
rear of the hotel which overlooks the
chasm, while coughing, lost set of teeth,
and on Sunday morning, after several per-
sons had discussed the possibility of getting
down to this ledge of rocks, two men by
securing a rope TO the building lowered
themselves TO the ledge, but without any
success i'll finding the teeth,
On returning they spoke Of the impossi-
bility of getting to the bottom of the gorge
on account of the abruptness of the bank
from the ledge down, when boy about
fifteen years of age, David Ward, volun-
teercd to go tO the bottom If any one would
give him fifty cents. a by-stander offered
to give him five dollars if he reached the
bottom, and he Immediately began to
descend. reaching the rocky ledge with lit
tie trouble, when, to the horror of those
who were watching him, he deliberately
Jumped from its brink and disappeared
from SIGHT. Everybody supposed 'haC he
was instantly killed, but III moment they
saw him appear in sight ut the bottom of
the gorge waving his hat and shouting in
triumph When he struck among tue
stones and gravel at the bottom lie landed
on his feet. but the momentum caused him
to turn a complete somersau1t, and he es-
capped with only slight sprain Of one hand.
The distance down is about seventy-five
feet. and the leap is one of the most re-
markable on record, certainly so where SO
little injury was sustained.

No CONGRESSIONAL enactment ever
fell SO still-born upon the country as
the Civil Rights bill. In point Of
fact it may be said to be imperative
DuIing the last and the preceding ses-
sions of Congress a vast deal of time
was devoted to its discussion, and
speeches in its favor were scattered
broadcast overthelan Demagogues
like Benjamin +. Butler were rociftr-
Gus in their demands for its passage i'll
order that certain unenjoycd rights of
the negro, as they styled them, might
be assured and their exercise protected
bv the infliction of severe penalties for
their violation. The radical leaders
who have been shaping the legislation
of Congress for almost ten years in
the interest of the negro, cared more
about annoying and aggravating the
white people of the Southern States by
the passage Of highly penal laws, than
they cid about enforcing imaginary
rights Of the colorcd man. This was
made perfectly manifest by Butler
himself publishing letter to "a man
and brother in Cincinnati not more
lfldI IlliCC NNSho sllISl lut DtSSdSt vi
the acs, in which he admitted that what
were regarded as the most important
rights secured by its provisions were
already guaranteed and made safe
under the common law. If this was
true there was no necessity for its pas
sage The law has been before several
Of the United States Courts in the
Southern States for construction, and
in every instance has been pronounced
unconstitutional and void, especially i'll
is criminal provisions. This unanim-
ity Of judicial opinion does not pro-
ceed from rebel judges, but from men
who are Republicans, and who have
been appointed to seats or the bench
by Grant himself. No sensible negro
desired the law, and those who would
like to put money in their pockets by
instituting suits for its violation find
the nselves without remedy. 1T af-
fords an instructive commentary on !
the inefficiencv Of radical legislation.
