that relief which neithar their sense Of JUS

Is TRsRE ABSOLUTE RELIGIoCs FREE
DON IN AMERICA S-The New York Table,
(Ca:holic) had an editorial last week on
Church and State in the United States. 1t
says that while the Federal Constitution de-
clsres that religious test shall be re-
quired as qualification for public office,
.he various States have not confornsd to
this organic law. Articles requiring ad-
herance to Professionalism wero in force in
the Constitution of New Work until 1908,
in Massachusetts, until 1921, in North Car
eIpa until 1886, ard in Now Jersey until
1874. In Gary'Sna thia qualification b3s
not been repealed in Vermont all ..cts
are oonpalleS to keep the Sabbath in New
Hampshire Catholics are ineligible to Of
fee, and IN Louisiana clergymep have been
excluded from Office. Pennsylvania aud
Tennessee require q belief in God and in
future rewards and punishments. The free.
dom of religion is infringsd in nearly al
the States, which in their legislation ''ac'
ne II Protestants were the only ones whose
religious convictions ars 10 be at all times
respected" In poorhouses, public asy
lums, prisons, etc, Catholics are compelled
to be present at Protestant services and t
listen to the singing OF hymns which breathe
q spirit OF antagOnisIn to the Catholic re-
ligion.

4 CEEvER GCosE.-A correspondent of
the Hartford 1ines writes: "a lady in

eggs and set them under a. favcrits hen
After four weeks Insulation, under great
difficulties the hen came off with oxs
healthy g0sing who caused her mach
trouble in consequence OF his recklessness
IN getting his feet wet. Still there was
great affection manifested by both parent
and child. But the ben gradually grew
ashamed, either Of herself or of her strange
chicken (Which had outgrown herr and she
sought another meet, n retired place.
and commenced sitting for another brood.
Tho gosling wandered 'lonely as a cloud

fine brood of chicks. The eander at this
time had obtained considerable size, and
laborod hard to help to support the large
family of his half brsthsrs and sisters He
would spread his wings and brood the
chicks and protect them from the rain,
and drive off AL the other fowls who inter
feTed with his adopted family. He would
go out to the field and bring in an ear OF
corn and shell it of for the chicks and

FIFTEEN DOLLARS TAKEN PROH EVERY
BoDT.-The Philadelphia Lsdger says that
somebody has figured out tho interesting g
fact that the total amount Of State, county,
city, and town taxes collected in the United
States in 1870 was $3.50, 591, 900, which was
about 81 n head for the entire population
The total amount of these taxes collected
in 1860 was s94, 1S6, 900, which was about
So a head for the entire population 1t
cost, therefore. more than twice as much
to take care CT a man in his State. county
and municipal relations in 1870 as it did
ten years before. This does not include
the Federal taxation. The net ordinary
expenditures of the Federal Government
in 1870 were Sf6S, 421 600, which was S4-
30 a head for the entire population In
1860 they were 500, 600, 00C, which was ST.
81 a head, In 1880 they were S37, 1855, 600,
which was Si.60 head. In 1910 they
were s24, 139, 000 which was $40 a head.
1t will be seen that while there was an in
crease of So cents in the per capita cost OF
Government from 1910 to 1850, there was
an increase of S2.36 in the rate IN the last
dec=de-the rate being more than doubled.
In this estimate we do not include the an
nual. interest on the debt this added to
the net ordinary expenditures for 1870,

Twenty years ago John Patton WAS a
rich cotton planter in williamson county,
Tsnr. Se was old and bachelor but
had three children by two of bis negro
slave women. For these children he had
great affection, and how to leave them his
property without publicly seeming to do
50, became The study OF his waning life
The plan which he finally adopted was to
bequeath his wealth to an Intimate friend
named Redmond, with the private under
standing that it should be wholly devoted
to the nulato children. The will made
Redmond the sole !Ggatee, and did not hint
at the verbal agreement. Not long before
his death he gave Redmond $4,000, and
told him to take the two women and chill
dren to Ohio and buy for them a farm,
upon which they might live comfortably
until they should come into full possession
of the fortune. Redmond tock them to
Ohio, as directed, but it is alleged that be
there abandoned them and kept the money
which was to have paid for their homo.
Patton died without knowing of his friend g
perSdy, and, in accordance With the plain
terms OF his viii, Redmond got the proper
ty. He refused to give the children a cent
Of it, and, rs this was before the abolition
OF slavery, and as they were legally slaves
belonging to him, they were afraid that if
thoF made any effort to oppces him, he
might take them back into servitude A
suit has been recently oornmeneed in Nash
vile 10 their behalf for the recovery Of the
$40, coo which Patton entrusted to Rcd

TIE Louisiana Returning Board

The Louisiana Returning Board,
after having been in session almost
two months, consummated it's infa-
nous work last week. The Board is
composed of fUe members, four OF
whom (two white and two colorsd) are
Radicals, and the remaining member
Democrat The returns Of the cleo
ton, list of voters, and tally papers,
in every voting precinct in the State,
numbering over six hundred, are re-
quired to be sent to this Board. Af-
ter they are received by the Board the
work of fraud and villainy commences.
1t was freely sdmitted after the No
Vember election that the Democrats
had carried the State and secured
majority in the Legislature. But all
this has been changed and the will of
the people set aside by the atrocious
acts of this partisan tribunal In
many instances the Democratic yots
of entire parishes, or counties, has
been thrown out and Radical mem
bers declared elected In this way
tlcentJ-tlCO Democratic members were
counted out, making the Legislature

ture whose decision can readily be an
ticipated.
No Southern State save South Car
olina, has been plundcred like houisi-
ana, nor have like frauds anywhere
been perpetrated on the ballot box
What makes the outrage more intoler-
able, is that it is bolstered up and sup
ported by Grant, bayonets. The
whole business is wicked mockery
on republican government, and the
rascally conduct of this Returning
Board is enough to goad the Demo.
Gratis Of Louisiana to swift and stern
resistance; yet we hope that more
prudent counsels will prevail. Let
them remember that the darkest hOu1
of the night Immediately precedes the

l. Frederick D. Grant Second Lien

II Frederick ID. Grant, Second Lieu.
! tenant of the Tenth Cavalry, was not
son of the President of the United
. States, his movements since he left the
Military Academy at West Point
would not attract special attention
| So far az any practical connection with
. the army is concerned, he has shown
! himself to be more ornamental than
useful. His father regards the Presi-
! dency not as u public trust confided
TO him by the people, but as a person
/ al honor to be shared by his family
/ and relatives. All other cadets are
sent to their regiments in reasonable
time after graduating. bat young Grant
was made an exception, and was al
lowed to maks a pleasure trip through
Europe with General Sherman at the
expense Of the government Some
time after his return, he was placed
on the staff of General Sheridan ss one
of his aids, with the rank Of Lieuten-
ant Colonel This was an insult to
sll the young, active officers in the
csyslry service, especially as Prince
Flcd, SIS he is sarcastically called, was
of no manner Of use to Sheridan, for
the reason that he epent three-fourths
of his time amidst the gayeties and
festivities of Washington.
When General Custer last summer
started on his expedition to the Black
Hilig, Lieut.. Col. Grant accompanied
him. But he did not like the labor
or fatigue Of tho march nor the priva-
tiOns Of the camp, and as he has always
been master of his own movements.
he turned his back on Red Cloud and
his Sioux braves and again resumed
his place in the gay society of the Cap
ital. When last heard from in Wash
ington, he WAS acting as his fathers
personal representative in paving
Presidential honors to David K Ksls-
kaua, King OF the Sandwich Islands
1t is understood that during the bal
ance of the winter Prince Fred's head
quarters, unlike those of Gen. Pope.
will not be "in the saddle" but in the
White House.
Although educated st public ex-
pense, this young scion of would be
royalty has been permitted to shirk
the dutie. of > soldier from the time
he left West Point to the present dav.
His pay nevertheless goes on. What
confers on him this Immunity from
camp life and army discipline? Sim
ply his paternity. 1t is an instructive
commentary on the beauties Of per-
sonal government and an offensive IL
lustration of the most prominent fea-
ture OF Grantism. One of two alter
natives ought to bs presented to this
amateur disciple Of Mars, and long
since would have been if Gen. Sher-
man exercised the least control over
him, which he notoriously does not.
He should either be ordered to Join his
regiment forthwith on the frontier. or
be given distinctly to understand that
his resignation would be acceptable.
