The Marquis de Caux is not dead. He was
not shot in q duel 1t is, in fact uncertain
whether he was even shot at in one of those
ridiculous, antique and wicked encounters
upon which intelligent modern society has
pronounced its ban. Our London dispatches
say that the report of the death of the Mar
quis de Caux is false. We deeply regret this
fact because of the pain it will give to the
London Standards news gatherer though
We are rejoiced in it on account of the
pleasure it must give the Marquis. While
there is every anxiety felt by journalists that
the news printed by the papers should be
true none but the most cold-blooded members
of the profession will resent the survival of
the Marquis. 1t may be said. and probably
will be said by the other journals, that the
Marquis de Caux should have died when he
was said to have died, and thus have con-
irmed the confidence of the public in the
truthfulness of the cable dispatches but we
do not agree with this severe judgment. If
men must die whenever the cable kills them
the population of Europe would be soon ex-
tinct
TIE Marquis de Caux, however, has little
to complain of in the premature announce
ment of his death. It has made him famous
for time, and he has been honored with
columns in papers which would otherwise
never have mentioned his name. He has also
the great advantage of being able to read his
own obituaries-a privilege which few noble
men have possessed. Thus he can profit
by the story of his life. "This state
ment," he may say, "is incorrect
am not dead" and this correction alone
would be of the greatest importance to HIM
in his future career. If he has faults his
biographers candidly inform him of their
character, and if he imagined himself indis-
pensable to the world, as most men do, he
will be taught humility by the indifference
with which the announcement of his death
has been regarded To him, therefore, the
false rumor is a sure blessing. What it may
be to the celebrated singer be married We do
not know. Our hearts impulsively beat pity
pat when we heard he was dsad, and it is to
be trusted that they will not beat pity-Patti,
now that we know that he is alive.

For time immemorial the representatives OF
the English newspapers have only been per-
mitted in the gallery Of the House of Commons
by courtesy which was in all respects a viola
ton Of the rules. BY the law Of the House no
stranger is permitted to hear its proceedings
A member had only to rise in his seat and
say, "Mr. Speaker, l observe strangers in the
gallery" and it became the Speakers duty to
remove reporters, spectators and all. This
rule has only been enforced upon rare occa-
sions, once, we believe, when the House de-
bated the Contagious Diseases act Mr.. Sui
Ivan, journalist from Dublin and a men,
Der, feels probably that his profession should
not rest under this law that they should not
have by sufferance what is theirs By right
Accordingly he announced that, in order TO
bring the matter to discussion and decision
and the establishment of a rule that will give
the press its rights, he would call the Speakers
attention to the presence Of reporters. This
would, Of course, compel them to leave tho
gallery, and thus close the debates to the
public. This is a result which the speakers
do not desire and one that the people would
not tolerate. The people claim to know what
their members say and Do. compromise
has been made under which Mr. Sullivan
agrees for the present not TO deprive the
people Of their daily parliamentary reports.

The BLACK HnLs-The excitement which

main in force. But for the military the emil

York. BY rapid transit we do not mean
simply o swift railroad up and down one
Of our avenues but generous, efficient,
comprehensive system. We want rapid transit
in all directions. We want tunnel under
the Hudson, that the great Southern and
Western lines may find terminus on this
island, and that the people, if they prefer,
may make their homes in New Jersey and be
able to cross without fear of ice or storms or
tides. We want the bridge to Brooklyn CON-
pleted, SO that our people, if they elect, may
have speedy access to the beautiful outlying
districts Of Long Island And, Of course,
above oil we need steam to Westchester. In
other words, rapid transit will be assured when
citizen can enter central depot near the
HERALD Office and select his route either to
New jersey, Westchester or Long Island. The
effect of this would be to make New York not
merely the most beautiful but the most con-
venient city in the world. 1t would no longer
be reproach to her that within her walls the
poor man could find no home that did not
threaten him with malaria and typhus

largest sense. The time has passed when
mere paltry, selfish interests can be allowed to
postpone further this necessary measure of
the public welfare. We do not see how any
fair, honest man can hesitate to vote for some
such measure as the admirable bill introduced
by Mr.. MCGOWAN. The value of Mr..
McGowans bill is that it means rapid transit,
and if ii is imperfect it can be amended. But
we want something. 1t is reflection upon
our form of government and the efficiency of
our State and city systems that we should be
to-day as it were under landslide instead of
marching ahead. 1t certainly shows apathy
or unftness in the leaders of our parties when
they fail to use their power for the general well
fare. We shall watch this debate with deep
interest We refuse to share the suspicious of
our correspondent as to the integrity of the
representatives who will be called upon to
vote. We cannot conceive that an issue like
this will be sacrificed to the interests of any
corporation, no matter how powerful 1t is
certain that whoever consents to such sacri-
fee must be content to accept the censure
visited upon public men who betray the
people and thus make themselves Infamous

stulti6es himself in asking for power 10 make

Of q similar power by the Mayor Of this city.
There is no argument for comforting this
authority Of absolute removal on the Gov
ernor which is not q stronger argument for

THE CARDNAIATE-The chapter We print
this morning Of the life of our new Cardinal
will be read with deep interest. There is in
all minds tendency to hero worship, and
the career OF the priest who ascends to
higher rank than that ever worn by on Ameri-
can Catholic will afford food for reflection.
We trace the life Of Cardinal McCloskey
through three Of its epochs-as a student Of
Emmettsburg, Maryland, as q priest in New
York, as q bishop in Albany. His record as
archbishop is well known. All the testimony
concurs in showing that the lite Of the Cardi-
nal has been one Of piety, virtue and learn
ing: that he has been always a good citizen
as we'll MS good Catholic, and that he has
given his best efforts to educate and enlighten
the people. The lesson of such lite cannot
be lost upon the young men of this genera
ton. Whatever we may think Of the religious
opinions Of the Cardinal every American

THE PULPIT AND THE PEEss.-The increased
Interest which has recently been taken in
religion by the citizens Of New York is due,
there is no doubt, to the publication of SER
mons BY the press. The fine selection from
tho discourses delivered yesterday, which we
give on another page, will, we trust, deepen
this religious feeling The sermons Of Mr..
Hageman, Mr.. Hcpworth, Mr.. Terry, Father
McCready, DR.. McGlynn, Mr.. rockingham,
Mr.. Beecher and others which print, cam
not fail 10 have good effect Probably the
greater depravity Of Brooklyn in contrast
with New York may be attributed to the fact
that the press Of that city does not do full
justice TO the pulpit while, on the other hand,
al the morality that still remains in our sister
city, after the Beecher trial, is due 10 the in
auence Of the religious daily press of New
York.

THE INDIAN WAR generally begins when
winter ends. Indications Of this are fur
nished in the recent battle between the Cbey-
snnes and cavalry troop at Monument Sta
lion, on the Union Pacific Railroad. The In
dams were badly defeated after two hours
lighting and lost twenty-seven Of their braves.
We are now to see whether Sheridan's policy
is to be tested on the Plains or whether the
government will go on with its present inter-
minable and useless strife. Certainly the In
dian Department has blundered long enough.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1875-04-26
sympathy with the German Prelates.

The relations of Church and State are al
ways hard to determine, excepting in those
cases, as in this fortunate country, where
their provinces are plainly divided. There
can be no conflict where there is no disputed
ground. This is the situation in America,
where the priest and the politician have diff
ferent spheres of action, and where conflict
between them should be legitimately impossi-
bic. In Europe, unfortunately, the conditions
are very different, and lead to grave complica-
tons The Church so long ruled the State
that it should not be surprising if the State
at last claims dominion over the Church.
That the Catholic Church has asserted its
authority too far is matter of history, en-
bodied in the accommodations and anathe-
mas of monarchs whose faults were merely
those of insubordination to political pro-
grammes, not of rebellion against spiritual
edicts. When the Pope meddled with the
temporal affairs of nations the Pope deserved
the rebuke he so often received But now,
when the Supreme Ponhff is deprived of all
temporal authority, virtually prisoner in
the Vatican and limited only to spiritual rule,
is the subject of sympathy all over the Chris
tan world nor do Catholics alone sympa-
thize with his sorrows, but Protestants feel
the humiliation which religion endures. The
State has become the prosecutor of the
Church Germany, under Bismarck, has
undertaken to destroy Rome in all her clerical
agencies, in the same spirit in which Hercules
undertook to cut off the heads of the Hydra.
The war which Bismarck has made against
the Pontiff is not war against his temporal
power, but against what is supposed to be his
spiritual interference with purely worldly
affairs. The severity with which the German
autocrat has pursued his policy has been
bitterly resented. The imprisonment of
bishops and the Archbishop of Posen, the
harsh laws passed by the Prussian Assembly,
the absolute issue raised by Berlin against
Rome, these and similar events have caused a
general belief that the Church, which was of old
the inspiration Of religious persecution, has now
become the object Of political tyranny We
are glad, therefore, to print to-day the letter
from the Archbishop Of Toronto addressed to
this paper enclosing the remarkable address
of that honored prelate and the bishops of
Canada to the unhappy Cardinal LedochowslSi
and his venerable companions in suffering
and Imprisonment 1t is another proof that
American Catholics feel deep sympathy
with their Church in Germany, not merely
because it suffers, but because they know that
it is attacked in pursuit OF a purely political
policy. The occasion does not seem to justify
the punishment and the letter printed by us
to-day is only one evidence, among many, Of
how great is the moral support which the
prosecuted prelates in Germany receive from
the Church in all parts of the world.
