Bishop Manning on Schools.

Archbishop Manning delivered
a lecture on tempe rance lately in
Liverpool. Temperance, he said,
was a question of vital importance
to the church. But he did not
fail To tell his audience that Of all
the questions that would come be-
fore them as good Catholics, that
of public education was by a long
way the most important. Speak
ing with papal authority, he pro-
nOunced it a vital necessity that
more influence should be obtain
ed over the public schools. The
object, he says. will brook no de-
lay. TO secure an education
which shall everywhere be Chris
tian, religious, and Catholic"
should be according to his declara-
ton, the first duty of every man
who has a vote. He admitted
that unless children are trained
to grow up as Catholics they will
not become Catholics. Protestant
education is the most powerful
lever against the spread of Ro-
manism, and it must be checked.
Control must be obtained of the
public schools, 50 that children
Shall hear nothing Of Protestant
heresies. The war must be wag-
ed at once. Every effort, with
out scrupIe, must be used to
stop the progress of Protestant
teaching, and of secular teaching
guided by prOtestants. This is
the first political duty of Catholics.
before which all other duties sink
into insignificance. So 1t has
been decreed by the Pope. and so
it must be; for the Pope is infalll-

A correspondent of the Chicago,
Tribune writing from Des MOines,
Iowa, gives the following as the
true history of the Presidents
speech at the reunion of the Army
of the Tennessee: 1.-THE fact is,
it was almost al impromtu speech.
During the afternoon the Presi-
dent had given a reception to the
school children in the Opera
House when a scene met his gaze
which would have awakened en-
thusiasm in the heart of any
American citizen, From the
Opera House he took d carriage
for a drive through the city. By
his side sat Judge Cole, of the
Supreme Bench, who has great
pride in the Capital city and the
culture and refinement Of her citi
zens, and especially in her public
schools, which are really worthy
the pride of every citizen. Dur
ing the drive, in which the school
buildings were viewed, the topic
of public schools was discussed by
the party, after various political
questions had been talked over.
The President expressed himself
very earnestly upon the subject,
and seemed anxious to impress
his views upon those with him.
The wish was expressed that he
would give them to the public.
The President replied that if he
had time he would prepare them
and present them at the reunion
that evening, as he expected to be
called on to say something, and
he knew of no subject more i'm
pressed upon his mind just then.
The drive was cut short, and the
President taken to Judge Coles
residence at $50, and, during the
thirty minutes preceding supper,
on four sheets of commercial note
paper, he hastily penciled the
speech which has set the nation
agog. There Was but one change
from the original draft. The
words, But we are not prepared
to apologize for the part we took
in the war; were interlined after
the speech was written, and with
a different pencil from that first
used, in another place he chang
ed the word Government to In
stitutiOnS.'

Reckless Shooting.

l.. A. Smith, VIII o owns a ranch
adjoining town, informs us that
parties who 60 out hunting are in
the habit of shooting in a very
reckless manner on and about his
ranch. A few days ago horse
belonging to Mr.. Smith was kill
ed by a shot from one of these
Sportsmen, and another horse,
which Mr.. Smith was pasturing
for another party, was badly
wounded. Mr. Smith very rea-
sonably asks that this thing be
stopped. His ranch is fenced and
nobody has a right to go upon it.
for shooting or any other purpose
without his permission. Mr..
Smith does not charge any one
with malice in the injury he has
suffered, but he respectfully re-
quests that no parties whatever
do any hunting or shooting upon
the said ranch.

BILE, incapable of uttering false
hood or of misleading the faithful
who are committed to his charge.
By reasoning such as this, Car
dinal Manning laid before the Ro-
man Catholics of England the i'm
perative nature of the duty that
now devolves upon them But
his remarks apply not to England
only. The policy of the Pope is
the policy of the Roman Catholic
Church everywhere. We have
seen long enough how the same
policy is being acted upon in this
country. But the movement
against the public schools here
has been largely of a surreptitiOus
character. 1t has been ably and
persistently followed. but it has
not been thus openly avOwed.
Now the avowal comes, not only
from one of the highest digni-
taries of the Church, but from
that one who, of all outside of the
Vatican, has the repute of being
most favored by the Roman Pom
tiff. In this respect his treatment
of the question raised by Mr..
Gladstone has not effected him.
If, therefore, there can be in the
mind of anybody any doubt as to
the truth of the danger that inn
ponds over the public school sys-
tenn, it should at once be dissip-
ated. There are persons, we
know, who have been inclined to
question the imminence of this
danger, and who have been dis
posed to feel that in pointing it
out from time to time, as we have
done, we have exaggerated the
cause for alarm. The Roman ca
thOlic policy has now been de-
clared in a manner that all the
world may hear, and if the plain,

CITY, NEVADA.-We yesterday
received the Geographic report
of an awful fire that occurred in
Virginia City on last Tuesday the

it is impossible to insert it in this

was blowing a gale and the fire
spread beyond human control. A
large portion of the city was en-

THE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND
THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

We do not desire to tire and an
noy our readers with repeated ar
ticles upon this subject, but we do
intend to keep it before the peO-
pie, for we consider it the most
important Subject that has ever
been brought to the attention of
the people of America. Our free
institutions, established by the
blood of our revolutionary sires'
are threatened, if not endangered,
by foreign hierarchy, at the head
of which stands the Roman POh-
tiff, who claims to be infallible,
who calls himself the Vice. Gerent
of Christ, and assumes to have su-
preme authority both temporal
and spiritual over the whole earth,
and to hold in his hands the keys
of both Heaven and hell. Millions
of poor ignorant people believe
that the Pope is infallible, and
that he possesses all the authority
that he claims, and to keep them
in that belief, the most tremend-
Gus efforts are being made by the
Catholic clergy to overthrow free
education. The free school sys-
tenn, the pride and glory of Ameri-
ca, is the greatest enemy to the
Catholic church, with all its en-
ormities and absurdities that are
a disgrace to the civilization of the
age, The Catholic clergy know
this and admit it, from the Pope
down. They know that if one
generation of the civilized people
of the earth were educated in the
public schools, beyond the teach.
ing ard influence of the Catholic
priesthood there would be no more
Catholic Church. AS a proof of
this assertion, we call attention
to the following report of lecture
delivered in Liverpool by that
greatest of Catholic Preiates, Car
dinal Manning. 1t will be seen
that she admitted M0t 0aIeSS chill
dren are trained to groa0 up as Ca
tboLics they a0iU not become Cotho-
TICS" That is it. That's the
point. Take away the coils of the
serpent of falsehood and supersti-
ton with which they bind the
immortal mind, and give it liber-
ty to soar and find the truth, and
it will never be again bound by
the absurdities and denominations
of fosiliZed creed that a thous-
and years ago had outlived its
usefulness. We have nothing
against the Catholic Church or its
members, among whom are some
of our best citizens. We accord
to them the same right that we
claim for ourself to worship God
according to the dictates of our
own conscience, but they must
not attack our free institutions,
particularly our public schools.
