MINT Court.

There is quite q novel and interesting feature
which has been introduced into the system OF
learning at the National University Law College,
and which bids fair 70 be decidedly advantageous
to the students of law attending that institution
that is the Friday evening discussions after the
close Of the recitation of the senior class as we'll
as the Saturday evening discussions Of the juniors.
On Friday last the senior class met in Moot
Court and discussed question involving dover,
(of which proceedings we gave q report which
was decided By the Court, Judge Wedgwood, but
appealed to the next meeting Of the court.
Last evening the two classes met jointly in
Moot Court Judge Macarthur presiding. The
case, which is a very improbable though not i'm
possible one, involving some niceities Of law, we
gave in our report last Saturday. Mr.. ]. A. Da-
pray opened the case for the appellant, and was
followed by Mr.. Schremir upon the other side.
Quite a number of students of both classes Iol-
lowed pro and con, in the following order, namely:
Messrs. Tryan, Hyer, Scott, Hill, Lamborn, Wor-
cester and May. At the conclusion OF the argu-
ments Judge Macarthur said the display OF so
much erudition and argument as IL had been his
pleasure to listen to might suggest the propriety

ing been entirely ignorant OF the intended
10 be argued until the statement Of the same by
the gentlemen of the class. But he would NOT
hesitate giving his opinion. He thought that no
where except perhaps, here IN the District, would
the question be Of so much interest, as in this
District alone the law respecting dover still re-
mains in its pristine state, in most OF the states 1t
being regulated by statute, and in nearly every
State differing. In conclusion, the Court affirmed
the decision below.
The class then, on motion Of Mr.. NJ. ]. Foote,
passed, unanimously, vote OF thanks TO Judge
Macarthur for the interest ne manifested IN thelr
Advancement by consenting to preside as judge Of

The ProocReader.

There is one person in q newspaper office who,
though very important, is bound, so far as the
public is concerned, TO pass his days In ooscu-
rity, to "blush unseen" within a small cage
where he has seldom room to either sit or stand
in comfort This is the prooE.reader. Every one
knows the editor, to his cost; he is badgered, In
one way or another, from morning till night; and
the public hold him responsible for everything
except printers errors, }" and then the printers
are abused. The very existence Of the proof
reader as an officer Of the stat is unknown to
many people. Question these, and you would
hnd that they believe that no one intervenes be-
tween the printers and the public save the writer;
and pretty newspapers, books and anything else
in print, they would have If this were the case !!
In the office. however, the prooi.reader is q val
ued though, perhaps, unappreciated person. He
is the unseen wire-puller who prevents many
disastrous error, who corrects many q grievous
mistake, not properly In his province, some Of
them, and often gets small thanks for 1t. While,
let him pass an error; let him, in some oftices,
omit to notice even what he is not legit-
mately bound to notice. and he is sure to hear OF
It. He stands between the editors and the print.
ers-the ham In the sandwict-lnd his fate is the
same, to be attacked by both. II writer sends
up unintelligible copy In which the compositor
makes O mistake, and the proofreader, after
praiseWorthy efforts to decipher hieroglyphics,
makes n mistake also, the writer forgiyes the
"conp." and is "down upon" the proofreader. He
OUGHT to know; he might have seen. Editors gen.
orally think their copy good, while It Is very
often very bad. If by chance the compositor is
blown up by the foreman, he casts the blame on
the proof-reader. No one will take the blame
while the proofreader is by to receive 1t, though
in most newspaper Offices he Is obliged to do
everything at a rate which makes It marvel
that he turns out such good work as generally
comes from his tiny den. We have known othces
where the prooEreader was expected almost to
subedit; he was to be an encyclopedias; If the
name OF some one little known or unknown was
misspelt, the proof-reader must set It right. It
is pity that writer's cannot more often see rough
proofs than they do; they would then understand
something Of the arduous work OF the proof
reader. Every class, It is said truly, has Its
PrieHances. and he surely has his full share.

TEMPORAL powzR OF THE POPE.
Rev. Father Dinshan's Lecture.

The Rev. p. A. DInahan, o. r, of st. Dominic's,
last evening iectured in that church On the sub
ject, 1.-THE Temporal Power: Shall It be Re
stored 2" He referred to this age as an age Of
revolution and change. The greatest change they
had witnessed was the fall of that throne which
only few years ago sat the Sovereign PontiH In
the capital of the Christian world.
The facts Of history would suggest the answer
to the question contained In the subject Of his dis
course. The temporal power had begun In the
days Of the Apostles, when people sold their
lands and brought to them the proceeds. The
wealth Of the Church had increased until Il held
wide possessions In Europe, Asia and Africa.
When Constantine went from Rome he had left
behind officials to manage the affairs OF the city
All had gone well during his reign, but from
his time down to that OF Challenging, the Empe-
rors had been sadly remiss in their duties. The
Of Northern barbarsns, and at last It was discoy.
cred that the Emperors were working against
their interests. AT this juncture the people Of
ten, and he had granted It, and had called upon
Pepin Of France TO protect the Italians. The
niHeG fact Pepin responGed I 10 his a cali, and
wrested the lands OF Italy from the marauders
and gave them back to the Church and the people
made inroads into Italy, and his son, Charlie
magne, had answered the call Of the Pontif, and
wrested the lands from their despoilers. The peo-
pie then had acknowledged the Pontif as soyer-
eign ruler. The boldest and most systematic at
tack against the temporal power had been made
during the French revolution, when the French
had entered the city, and compelled Plus vi to
sign o treaty giving to the French portion of his
land, and at the death Of Plus VI, shortly after
wards, 1t was thought that the temporal power Of
the Pope was at an end, but the power again had
risen with Plus VII.
The speaker argued from the logic OF history,
time from every downfall, and as the temporal
power had never been lost for any length Of time,
the Church would recover from its usurpstion
by Victor Emmanuel.
The lecture, which was q brilliant effort, was
fully appreciated.
