All of our Catholic world is in a futter
in reference to the new Cardinal. The
fact that we are to have q prince among us,
a real prince, blessed and exalted by the
successor Of st. Peter, and Yankee prince
also, is exciting the most ingenious theories
and iancies. In few days the Papal officers
with the berrcttd will arrive, and then we shall
have the most noted ceremony ever seen in
4 Catholic church. The robes have been
made. The proper tint Of scarlet hns been
happily found, and all the ladies are as
anxious to see how His Eminence looks in
his new gown as they would be to see o
new style Of bonnet. II was at one time
feared, in the absence Of the proper tint, that
the services OF Mr.. Booth the tragedian
would be invoked, as Mr Booth is known
10 have real cardinals robes for his part of
Richelieu, but happily this necessity has
been overcome, for with all Of our respect
for the character and genius Of Mr.. Booth,
il would have been a painful thing to con-
template a real cardinal walking up
the cathedral aisle in the robes of ira
qedian. Now that this difficulty has been
settled another has arisen in the way Of
horses. The carriage has been found, the
arms Of His Eminencc have been painted ON
tho doors and the robes await his pleasure.
But il is said the horses cannot be obtained.
We believe that there must be pair Of Jet black
horses sixteen hands high, which know how to
draw cardinal A committee Of Catholic
gentlemen have been in search Of proper
pair but with TO success. The unpleasant
fact now awaits His Eminence that he must
either stay at home or have his carriage pulled
by relays Of the faithful. cardinals coach

Frightening Business Prospects.

We print this morning a second instalment
Of the letters and interviews from correspond
ents and reporters in the principal cities of
the United States, describing the condition of
business and the hopes and opinions of bust
ness men in various commercial centres.
Among the various things Of this sort which
We publish to-day we single out the Boston
letter, and direct attention to it as specially
noteworthy. The trade of Boston may be
reviewed under two aspects. In the first place
Boston is the commercial capital of the New
England States and indicates the prosperity
or depression of one OF the most populous,
active, and enterprising sections Of our COM
mon country. As an interesting part OF the
great whole it deserves the same kind atten-
ton and study which we bestow on Richmond
or Wilmington or other cities which are
merely emporiums of trade for limited areas
Of a few hundred miles in extent In the
second place the Massachusetts aud other
New England industries hold wider relations
with the whole business of the country
than those of any other locality, with
the single exception Of New York. Massa-
chusetts is therefore q better barometer
or business gauge than almost any other State
in the Union. The cotton and woollen goods,
the boots and shoes, the ready-made clothing,
which she has facilities for manufacturing in
immense quantities, are prodgiously out of
proportion to the wants of the New England
market. Her capital has been invested in ex-
tensiye mills and machinery with reference to
the consumption Of certain classes Of goods
by the whole country. Her cottons and
woollens, her calicoes and cassimeres, her
boots and shoes, her ready-made coats, trou-
sers and undergarments, must be manufac-
tured on scale large enough to supply the
wants of great part of the country besides
New England in order to keep the machinery
all running and the operatives employed on
full time. Activity in the Massachusetts, mills
is accordingly, sure symptom OF present
or prospective demand for manufactured
goods throughout the United States. The in
dustries OF Massachusetts, are thus about the
best gauge we have Of the general prosperity
of the country.
In this view, rather than as an indication Of
rising prosperity in New England, we feel great
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1875-04-05
satIsfaction ia the encouraging facts set forth

satisfaction In the encouraging facts set forth
by our Boston correspondent After q long
period Of depression, during which many OF
the mills and manufactures were running on
half time and some of them entirely stopped,
they are nearly all once more in full activity.
This is rot merely good local symptom but
most hopeful general symptom. 1t betokens
q reviving ability to purchase goods IN all
parts of thu country, because full time in the
mills will turn out six or eight times the
amount of goods that can find market in the
New England States Certain it is, therefore,
that the shrewd, vigilant business men OF Mas
sachussetts see their way clear to full
recovery of the markets which have been lost
during the eighteen months of stagnation
which followed the great panic of 1873. To
people who take o comprehensive view Of tha
business interdependence of all parts OF ths
country, this part of our Boston letter will
seem more full of hope and promise than
any other symptom which has yet come ia
the public knowledge. But while the country
has reason to anticipate fair revival of pros.
perity, it must not indulge in extravagant ex
pectstions, or embark in wild adventures
The recuperation, though sure, is likely to be
gradual and is healthy progress depends on
continuance Of the habits of thrift and
economy which are the most valuable lesson
enforced by the panic

With the two millions Of Philadelphia. And
Of every dollar Of material advantage gained
by the Centennial in the way Of travel, trade,
freights and passage money, New York will
have the better share. New York is, to nine
tenths of the States and to all the foreign
countries, the doorway to the Centennial. Here
all the travel must come, and here will be
most of the trade To all intents the Exhi-
bition is as much New York affair as if it
were held in Newburg or Albany. There
fore, for our own interests, we should take
hold and give the movement our active sup
port The State as Commonw ealth the city
as a metropolis, should be represented. We
should make ample appropriations to enable
our people to make a fine display. 1t would
be sad blunder indeed for our people to sit
idly by while the golden hours are slipping
from rs, and when the time came for us to
take part in the Centennial to find that we were
too late. Wchave only little time in which
to make our preparations, for next spring has
been arranged for the opening. This only
gives us year in which to work. A year is
q short time in which to do such multitude
composed OF all nationalities and representing
the world in miniature Those who have any
of the experience of Vienna and Paris and
London will appreciate the value Of time and
promptitude in work of this kind.
New York, therefore, laggard among the
States, and, not having done as much as
Nevada, should begin at once, and our first
work should be to appoint State and city
commissions to represent us in Philadelphia,
and to make adequate appropriations. New
York does not certainly want to depend upon
the kindness OF Philadelphia for her oppor-
tunities tor display. She means to pay her
own way in the Centennial. There should,
therefore, be appropriations ample enough TO
enable us to show our resources. If we did
as much as Delaware we should appropriate
half million of dollars; but million would
be little enough, considering how much we
have at stake. Our main desire is to see the
Centennial success worthy of the event and
worthy of the nation We desire to see New
York take the most prominent part in the dis
play-the part TO which we think she is en-
titled by her supremacy in wealth, enterprise
and population. We desire to see such
manifestation of our Commonwealth great
ness that all the world will see it, and that
even our sister States, when they come within
the palace halls, will concede it. We desire
to behave handsomely and literally with the
Centennial, as New York never fails to behave
when either her honor or her interests are in
VOWED. For this reason, therefore, we regret
that in publishing the opinions and recon-
mendations of the Governors of the various
States we cannot say more of New York. But
we trust that when our people, and more es-
pecially those in authority, see what is doing
by the other States, they will hasten to place
our noble old Commonwealth in the van.

sin and Religion.

There is a plausible theory often advanced
by sceptical minds which we do not remem.
Der to have been answered in thoroughly
effective way. 1t is. that the building OF
splendid churches, the employment of grand
organs, orchestras and choirs, the system of
expensive pew rents and all the methods
adopted to make religion popular and fash
ionable are really the enemies of the true
and simple religion taught in the Bible. 1t is
claimed that the disposal of pews by auction
annually tends to excite jealousy and ambi-
ton among church members and encourages
the distinctions between the rich and poor.
The lady who owns o five hundred
dollar pew is likely to feel an un-
christian pride in the possession, and
her neighbor, who has a ten dollar
pew, is probably tortured with an en-
vious disposition. Wealthy church members
are said to be proud of their cboirs, their
organs and all the pomp and magni6cence of
worship, while the poorer congregations are
often Inundated by the comparisons they are
obliged to make.
This may be admitted, and yet the objec-
ton can only be made by superficial mir DIS,
and is easily disposed OF. What is the OBJ
ject of the Churchs Plainly to convert sin.
ners of all kinds. The primal duty of the
pulpit is to eradicate or subdue such
evil passions as pride, envy, jealousy,
covetousness, vainglory and delight in
the transitory pleasures of this deceitful
world. This can certainly best be done by
bringing these vices directly under the control
of the pulpit system which promotes envy
in the Church enables the clergymen to preach
against it with powerful effect Sin is in this
way developed only that it may be the more
effectually destroyed, and a person who is
converted from the false pride of MEM
bership in fashionable church is
certain to be forever afterward humble in
everything else. For these reasons we can
not agree with those who attack fashionable.
religion, but consider it to be, under wise
management, the most successful means Of
inducing worldly individuals to attend church.
That object once secured, their vices of pride,
jealousy, envy, &C., can be attended to in de-
tail, and finally extirpated altogether.
This plan has been successfully tried in
Plymouth church, membership of which is in
the opinion of the members equivalent to
title of nobility. Our sermons, from churches
both fashionable and questionable, will be
found TO illustrate in some degree this pro-
found philosophy.
