A recent letter from southern CORE;
s,ond-nt of the Louisville Courier Journdl
CHARGED General Sherman with following up
a blaspbemous speech by directing the burn
;ny Of the Eaton cotton factory during bis
march through Georgia, and also suggested
that Mrs. Shermau's late aid to the Catholic
Chnrch in the South may have been due to
her remembrance of the burning of the monas.
terv at CoIumbia, S. c., by her husband, and
his curse upon lis inmates. An eX:soluiet
ohio had served under General SnermaE
wrote TO him asking him if the charges were
true but his letter found the General absent
in New England. As the correspondent
spoke freely of Mrs. Sherman, she answered
the letter TO her husband.

Bishop Elders Lecture.


The demonstration of last Sunday made
by the Catholic Total Abstinence Union of
this city was happy success in every re-
spect. The day was all that conld be de-
sired, calm, cool, and clear as the head of
a man who had never tasted whiskey. We
will not here refer at length to details, as
they will be found fully given in our local
report of the proceedings, but we cannot
omit noticing the vast audience which in
the evening assembled to manifest their
sympathy with the association in its cele-
bration and to hear the address which was
to be delivered. A more densely packed
Assem- biage We have never seen in st.
Patrich's Hall or a more orderly, respect
full one anywhere. If one may judge from
appearances, it can be fairly concluded that
the temperance cause has won thousands of
active friends in New Orleans and has at
last found out and applied the means neces-
sary to give it's movement life and perma.
nence.
We are fortunate enough to be able to
present our readers with an accurate
report of Rt. Rev. Bishop Elders lee
ture delivered on the occasion. It speaks
for itself and needs no encomium from us.
We sincerely hope that our citizens who
were not present at it's delivery will read it.
They will fud, not an empty, snowy piece
of oratory, laden down with poeticAl fig
ures and centering its whole merit in it's
rhetorical style, but discourse which fills
the requirements of lecture. This species
of public address ia intended to convey in,
struction. Whether having for it's subject
the physical sciences, such as astronomy
and geology, or the intellectual sciences, as
political economy aud history, or the moral
sciences, as the principles and philosophy
of Temperance, it must always, and es-
pecially, convey information. This infor-
nation ought to be dressed up in a popu-
lar, entertaining form, bat it must be there.
1t will be seen that Bishop Elder emf
nently succeeded in realizing this ideal, He
took as his principal ground that perma-
nence is given to good associations by the
religious element, and by that alone. His
point was fairly maintained, much informa-
ton conveyed and decided impression
made on the convictions of his hearers by
the interesting series of incontestable facts
which he cited. 1t is, therefore, with great
confidence that we advise the perusal of his
lecture.

REV. NJ. SHEEHAN.-The numerous
friends of this reverend gentleman will be
pleased to learn that, having accepted a
favorable mission iu Australia, he has been
appointed by the Right Rev. T. O'Mahoney,
Bishop of Armidale, Province of Sy dney, as
his assistant at the Cathedral Church. We
congratulate Bishop O'Mahoney on having
secured the assistance of so able and ex-
perienced a clergyman, and the people of
Armidale in having obtained the services
of SO Jealous priest. Since his departure
from this city, Father Sheehan has COM
pieted an extended tour through Europe,
visiting his many old friends and acquaint-
ances, both amoBg the clergy and laity
Father Sheehan is now in the enjoyment of
excellent health.

That was sound practical sermon
which the Rev. Father Walden, of st.
Johns Catholic Church in this city,
preached to his flock yesterday. The good
priest, in his walks about the parish
notable one for it's extreme poverty
found that the streets were full of ragged
and barefoot boys and girls who should 20
to school and to church. Looking deeper
beneath the surface than is the won't of
clergymen when they look at all at such
things, Father Walden discovered that
pride-the fact that they are barefoot and
Iagged-is at the bottom of it all. Now
he didn't forthwith ascend the pulpit and
hold forth upon the snfulness of pride :;
he commended it instead, and struck at
the real root of the evil when he earnestly
appealed for funds to clotbe these sensitive
little exiles from school and church. Said
he {: "Give them the boots first, then we
can get them the books afterwards"
There's the true missionary idea in a nut
shell, boots before books,-and the re-
suit will be that Father Walden will sue
coed in furnishing both.-Chicago Times.

Last Thursday we received q copy of the
New York Irish Americun, of the 10th, contain
ing verbatim report of Mr. o'Connor Powers
first lecture in this country. 1t was delivered
on Thursday evening, October 9TH, in the
Cooper Institute, before an immense audience.
His subject was 1.-THE Condition of ireland :
Social, Political and Industrial" On the 9TH
page of to.day's MORNING STAR we copy a de-
served tribute to the great Irish orator from
the Irish World. 1t is to be hoped that, unlike
1he vast majority of distinguished men who
visit America from abroad, Mr.. Power will visit
the Crescent City, where there are so many
thousands of his countrymen as patriotic and
Intelligent as any in the world, and where he
e sure of most enthusiastic reception.

IMMIGRATION INTO TExAs.-During the
year ending September 1, 1875, the total
domestic immigration into Texas for per-
manent settlement was SO, 1868 persons.
These persons took into the State prop
erty of various kinds, amounting in value
to not less four million dollars. In addi-
ton to this, there was AN immigration from
four foreign countries amounting to
about 300, 900. Texas, ever since the war,
has been much in need of labor, and many
have been the Inducements held out to
settlers, but these, until recently, have
been taken but little notice OF.

The Jubilee Explained.

The Jubilee year is fast passing away and
the great majority of those now capable of
profitiDg by its opportunities will never see
another. 1t would be a feeble and i'll in
structed faith indeed, that could look upon
the occasion as one Of merely nominal i'm
portance. 1t is not a simply idle piece of
sentimentalism that has no real, actual
value for thia life or the next. We cannot
here go into a prolonged explanation of
what the Jubilee is, of what are it's objects,
and what may be its effects.
There is no doubt, from the teaching of
the Holy Church and from striking instan-
forgiveness of sinners o6enses, after his
reconciliation to God, he may still have to
undergo much and grivous punishment for
the same offenses The life of David abounds
in such instances; the death of Moses in
sight of the promised land affords an un-
mistakable one, and what more universal
and incontrovertible case in point can we
need than that seen and felt by every
human being every day, in all his sufferings
and sorrows, all being punishment of the
fr-t great sin. Adam was forgiven, as is
piously believed, but he still suffers in his
! posterity.
Now, is there any way of escaping the
| terrible temporary pains which either in
this world or in Purgatory must follow upon
sin committed Its forgiveness, as we
know, does not remit all of the punishment,
unless based on what is called perfect con-
| triton, that is, pure love of God unmixed
| with fear or selfish considerations. But
who can expect to attain to SO high grade
of perfection7 Few indeed, and conse-
whole penalty of their sins by that means.
But God has been graciously pleased, out
of consideration for the merits of Christ,
and even of the Saints, to grant remission
| of all penalties on terms much more easily
attaiHable than perfect contrition. He has
given to his Church the power to bind and
loose, and to dispense the treasures of grace
by her Divine Founder.
1t is precisely this that is done in the
Jubilee, and the condition is, not perfect
contrition, but merely a sincere sorrow for
all sine, even venial ones, detachment
from them all, and determination to avoid
all, even the smallest of them. To this are
added certain acts generally known. That
all may proceed understandngly in 30 i'm
portant matter, they ought to be thor
oughly acquainted with the teaching of the
Church on all these points, and for thie
purpose we most heartily commend small
brochure called "The Jubilee" written
by an eminent theologian of this city and
published with the full approval of the
ecclesiastical authorities.
Our advertisement of it will give further
information.

The Speech Of the President.


The recollection of perils, sufferings and
anxieties endured in common and of nota-
BILE deeds performed by general effort is
one OF the strongest cements of friendship.
The general who has long commanded
an army and has led it to battles
fought under his own eyes and to victories
in which the bravery of the soldiers sup
plemented the skill and plans of the com
mander cannot meet his old comrades face
to face without emotion, and we do not
wonder that General Grants reticence
broke down yesterday at Des Moines when
he met the survivors of the old army of
the Tennessee, which he formed, trained
and commanded, and whose members have
so many cherished memories in common
with him. Such a meeting, even though
expected and appointed beforehand, could
not fail to move all whom Providence has
preserved to take part in it, and especially
the president, of whose striking career the
men he saw before him formed an import
ant and interesting part; and who, per-
haps, remembered that he is soon to retire
from the active stage of life, In whose
most stirring parts those there gathered
were his comrades. Thus it is not sur
prisiDg that the man usually so reticent
spoke, and it was to be expected that he
would, knowing that his words would be
eagerly read by his countrymen every
where, use the occasion to speak Of the
