St. Elizabeth's Asylum.

1t is scarcely necessary for us to remind
our readers that on next Friday evening
and next Saturday morning will take place
the grand concert and matinee for the bene-
fl of st. Elizabeth's Asylum. The style IN
which the affair has been gotten up SEEM
ed to strike the popular fancy from the
beginning, and we presume that more than
enough tickets to fill St. Patrick's Hall
with their holders have been sold air eady.
We therefore merely advise our most par
ticular friends not to put off their appear.
ance on the scene until 7l-2 o'clock P. NJ,
the hour announced for the evening enter
tainment, nor until 10 o'clock NJ, for the
matinee, but to be on hand about an hour
sooner than the announced openings. The
beauty and interest of the scene while
watching the importing multitude will make
the time pass rapidly enough, besides the
advantage of being able to choose ones To-
cation.
Miss Cannon, Our popular home bred
musician, we'll knows how to make such
an affair a success, and will certainly try
her best this time, while the splendid abili-
ties of her volunteer assistants and the
varied character of the entertainment will
render the occasion unusually brilliant.
We are very glad to be able to chronicle
such favorable prospects, since the Asylum
st. Elizabeth's-whichi is to be the bene
fciary, is in great need of aid. Two hun
dred orphans make a large family anC
require a considerable amount of food
That article is none too plentiful anon

Letter of the Sovereign Pontif, Plus IN, Pdge4.
In the midst of the troubles incident upon
his depsrtnre His Grace the Most Rev Arch
bishop, forgot to specify in his short Pastoral
Letter. attached to the Pope's Eneyclical, that
all priests of tho Diocese authorized to hear
mute, in cases of necessity, one good work
into another, as regards the conditions neces-
sary for gaining the Indulgence of the Jubilee.
Such was his intention, nevertheless, as he
had ex pressed it to the Very Rev. G. Raymond,
". G. and Administrator of the Diocese, and as
it was communicated to the Rev. Clergy OF the
city at the Conference, on Thursday, 18th inst.
All the priests of the Diocese, regular OF
secular, authorized to hear confessions, have
the power to dispense with the conditions pre-
scribed for gaining the Indulgence of the
Jubilee, or rather to commute them into other
works, according to the dictates of their con-
sciences, and this authorization will continue
in force from the present time until the 3lst OF
December 1875, inclusive.
AS to the special powers for Confession, each
priest is referred to the Encyclical Letter OF
the Holy Father.

Revolution in Mexico.

1t would appear that Lerdo's war upon
women has finally found resisters among
the men, and there is no telling now how far
ago, left $500 men under arms against the
Infidel Government and the spirit of disaf-
lection spreading rapidly.
We do not pretend to justify revolution
of which we know not the circumstances.
The Intidel Masonic Government of Mexi-
co has insulted the faith and violated the
religious liberty Of the Mexican people,
still revolution would be- unwise in them,
and therefore unjustifable, unless it should
have every assurance of success.
But of the theoretical right. of the
people to throw off the monstrous tyranny
which enslaves them, the representative
government which despises their will, the
have forgotten their agency, and rebelled
against their masters,-of that right we
have no doubt.
The INSCRIPTIONS knaves 10 possession OF
the Mexican government forget that they
represent the people. They remember only
their ring of oath bound conspirators, anC
scornfully disregard the wishes of the ma
ton to obey the behests of the Cabal. Elect
ed as servants, they assume the role of mas
tiers sent as representatives, they set NJ
rs dictators. They have violated theil
oaths +; they have rebelled against the PEG
pie. 1t is they who made the Revolution
and now there will be a great outer,
against the people for resisting thei
usurpatiOn.
The race of wickedness is shorter some
times and in some places than in others.

Lecture on the Life of Father Duffy.

Important Missionary duties and other
gent business having prevented me from CIV
ing the lecture the Life and Labors of the
Rev. j. B. Duffy, for the benefit of the Sisters
OF Mercy, the day appointed, now name
Wednesday, May 18th, as the day on which l
will, God willing, deliver the lecture; GO
H. GIEsEN, &. SIS. K.
Charleston, April. %, 1875.
Our readers would not forgive US if,
through an omission of ours, they Should
not become informed of the foregoing an
nouncement. Any lecture by Father Giesen
is treat which none of his friends are
willing to lose, but when such n lecture is
to have the subject announced for it on this
occasion, the interest centering in it is
greatly augmented.
The life and labors of Father Duffy is a
topic which involves many of the most in
terestng episodes of our local history,
especially of the First and Fourth Districts.
The success of the Eedemptorist Order,
manifested in the vast and splendid works
of architecture with which they have em-
bellshed large and important section of
this city, is like fairy tale. OF all that
Father Duffy was constituent part; in it
ali he was moving aud controlling in
fluence; it's history is, e. great extent,
his history.
We can hardly say less for him in con
nection with the grand spiritual develop
ment which grew up along with those ma
terial works-the crowded congregations,
the still more crowded schools, the orphan
ages, the converts. The influence of the
Redemptorist Order over the immense
parish which their zeal has, to a great ex
tent, created, ia most admirable in it,
fruits of piety and zeal. In the growth o
all this the handlwork of Father Duffy
was always prominently visible, and th'
thousands who remember that fact with
gratitude will always delight to have thos'
deeds recalled to mind by such maste
artist as Father Giesen.

phere. In this country if a man wants to
kill another he simply shoots him and tbats
all. Why there should be SO much cere-
mony about it, over there across the water,
lie a problem difficult of solution, if you start
out with the promise tbatthe is a man able
to shoot and determined to shoot. Its sim
pie matter, doesn't require any conspira-
ton, and, consequently, ought not to be
found ont until after the shot ia fired.
Then, the vast mystery always attached
to Bismarck's assassinations! There are
strange rumors of Bishops and Archbshops
and cousins of Cardinals as being impll-
Gated 10 the affair. These rumors are given
to the winds to he scattered like thistle
seeds over She world to bring forth evil
fruit of suspicion, and their mission is done.
Nothing is ever heard of the plot after
wards. The particular Bishop or Arch
bishop or Cardinals nephew is never set
tied upon. The matter is silently dropped,
after the dsquieting impression is made on
that portion Of the public which is not
wide awake, that these priests are very,
very dangerous, intriguing, unscropulous,
bloodthirsty hypocrites. Most people are
captured by good, bold assertion; they
forget to look for the subsequent proof.
But Bismarck ought to remember that
there is such thing as monVmania. By
keeping the assassination programme for
ever before the imaginations of certain ex-
citable men of weak minds, he may finally
work them up to the belief in a mission of
that sort in themselves.

diligence. At half-past four in the eveninv,h.

about two thousand persons, one-fifth of whom
were men, marched TO the Church ct the Im-
maculate Conception, thence to the Cathedral,
and thence to st. Mary's, where it was dis
banded. At each of these churches the prayers
were said by Father Allen. who also addressed
the congregation at the two first named.
At st. Mary's the Very Rev. Vicar General de-
livered q brief address congratulating st.
Patrick's congregation on the truly Catholic
spirit they displayed.
During the week the morning and evening
services were well attended.

Some light has at last been thrown upon the
origin of the recent troubles in Buenos Ayres,
wherein several member of the Society of Jesus
were severely wounded and their splendid col
lege reduced to q heap of ruins 1t would ap
pear from the Pastoral of the Archbishop,
which we publish in another column, that he
simply proposed to transfer the Church of St.
Ignatius from the charge of it's old pastor, who
was to he stationed at the Cathedral, to that
of the Jesuit Fathers. 1t had been their
property, but was confscated years ago upon
the suppression of the Order. The civil au-
thorities acquiesced in the transfer, but it
would seem that, iDstigated by the Liberal
papers and the members of the Carbonari a
mob, variously estimated at from ten to thirty
Thousand persons, and which no doubt was
largely composed of nominal Catholics, were
worked up to such a pitch of frenzy in their
opposition, that they attacked the Jesuit Col
| lege with the results above stated.

Free Masonry.

The Republican steps out as champion of
the Sect, but is even more illogical than
usual in doing so. The MORNING STAR, IN
speaking of the Masonic Order in Europe as
a gang of Atheists, admitted that in Eng
land and this country many so, called Chris
tians were Masons. Yet the Republican at
tempts to confute our position by referring
to the facts that Gen. Washington was
Mason, aud that DIR. Leacock and sundry
other clerical parties less known than him-
self to fame are now Masons.
We cannot possibly see the connection OF
these facts with our theory as combination
of it, since they are a direct proof of its
correctness 40 far as America is concerned.
Bat the Republican makes in its facts
several grievous errors of the very grossest
kind, which is, indeed, a chronic habit Of
that sheet when speaking of religion.
Is:. 1t says that these gentlemen men
toned by it would be called Infidels in
Catholic countries if they should openly
affiliate with Masonry there. This is not
so, because the distinction between Pro-
testantism and Intidelity is still recognized
in those countries, though, perhaps, some
what too cbaritably.
God. 1t says " 1t may be true that Ca
tholics in Italy and Spain call Masons In
fidels" Yes, it is quite true, and it is also
unfortunately true that the Masons in those
countries, and especially in France, call
thcmselrss Infidels and publicly scott at all
religion.
3rd. The Republican says, not that some
say, or that it has been reported, but
squarely out as positive fact of it's own
knowledge, that: "The Pope was once Il
Mason"
Yet the Republican cannot prove it, and
does not know it. In fact, it is not SO.
That paper may have been misled by being
too credulous in believing an old and ex-
ploded fabrication; but let us impress upon
our neighbor the propriety, in this age of
deceit, of not swallowing as gospel every
yarn that tallies with its own bitter pref
dices.
The Masonic champion has kindly left
uunoticed the moral which we drew in the
article reviewed by it. 1t was this: that
Professionals will fraternize with the enemies
of the Church, even if they are beyond
enemies of Christ, and are much less an
noyed ny denial of Gods existence than
by a claim of authority on the part of His
Church.
We can logically go even farther and
conclude that their faith in Christ, if any
ia SO extremely feeble that they are entirely
devoid of that Christian instinct by which
enmity to Christ is, under every guse, i'm
mediatey recognized and abhorred. Thu
faith of Professionalism is so lifeless that i
cannot even perceive the fact that Free
Masonry is essentially anti Christian.
AS to the Republican itself. We ar
naturally inclined to be very gentle will
the moribuud. There is always, in fact
hope of a death bed repentance, and on
poor neighber is evidently on it's last legs
We should like to entertain hopes of it
con version, but indications are strong tina
it will die impenitent.
All, yesl The RepublioGH can never b
Catholic, because the first test of sincerit
demanded of a repentant sinner is restitu
tton of ILL gotten Rains.

ST.. FRANCIS DE SALES PARIsH.-This even
ing, Sunday, Mt 1880 o'clock, the News Boys
will give an entertainment in st. Francis
School, corner Second and st. David streets.
Tho boys made their first appearance in the
parish last year and delighted the people with
their songs, dialogues and comic acting, and it
is the pleasant recollection of the enjoyment
then experienced which has induced the par
ishioners to call for their reappearance. The
admission fee is only so cents, and the pro-
ceeds of the entertainment are to be devoted to
reducing the debt Of the parish.
