WHAT Is THE GUIBoRD CASE ?-The
disturbance in regard to the burial Of
Joseph Guibord, in Canada, grew out
Of the fact that he had sometime pre-
vious to his death, (Which occurred
over three years ago) joined secret
society which was denounced by the
authority Of the Catholic Church.
When be was taken sick he sent for a
Priest, but be (Guibord) refused to
abjure the society and submit to the
Church. and SO died in practical and
avowed obstinacy against the Church.
The Catholics then determined that he
should not be buried in their cemetery,
and his wife determined that be should
be. as he owned lot therein, and on
her appeal to the authorities her claim
was sustained. So great was the OPP
position however, that the military had
to be called out to preserve the peace
and enforce the decree Of the Court.
But to make the matter tight, and de-
ter.othert members Of the Church from
joining secret societies, the Catholic
Bishop Of Montreal has cursed the spot
where Guibord lays. so that it is inter-
dicted and separated from the rest Of
the cemetery, 50 that the cemetery may
not lose its sacredness or the holy rites
the Church has upon its sancti6ed and
blessed places cannot be sacrificed or
trodden under foot. h 1aH @ 9

LOCAL OpTIoN IN MARYLAND The
Denton journal says that, despite re-
ports Of beneficial effects Of the local
option law, few towns on the peninsula
have suffered more from drunkenness
during the past twelve months than
Denton, and that scenes Of the most
wretched, disgraceful and alarming
drunkenness are frequent The Easton
Ledger says that there may not be as
much drunkenness in Easton as former
ly, as liquor is hard to get hold Of ex-
cept by those who send to the city for
it, but there are enough intoxicated
persons seen to prove that local option
is entirely Intellectual in preventing
drunkenness. And the Newtown (Wor-
cester county, Gazette says that what is
true Of Denton and Easton is equally
true Of Newtown. the law having sig
nally failed to accomplish the object
supposed to be intended. A local option
convention was held in Cumberland on
Friday of last week. at which resolu-
tions were passed asking the next
Legislature to extend the benefits of
local option to Allegany county. !

ST. NIeHoLAs FOR OCTOBER closes
the second, volume Of this charming
magazine, and brings 4 to its readers
some thirty interesting articles, the
majority Of them beautifully illustrated
The frontispiece is very fine wood-cut
BY Granville Perkins, representing d
battle at sea between the American
frigate, Essex" and an English
ship, "Phebe," during the war of
1872, which contest is also described
in the opening article The latter is
devoted to very clear and interesting
review Of the cruise of Captain David
Porter's vessel, on board Of which our
late Rear-Adniral Farragut first distin-
guished himself for his bravery when q
boy oftwelve ar +s-iz H@2

and describing the Dragon, Harry,

Following close upon this is very
natural, as we'll as amusing, story by
Mrs. Sarah Winter Kellogg, under the
title of''How It Went"-a very sug
gestive one when applied, as we dis
covered 1t to be, 10 the manner in
which winters earnings sglided from
the hands and pockets Of two merry
youngsters. #.
Descriptive articles, also, are not
lacking, and if the young reader prefer
solid information to fiction, he will
fnd something to his taste in the we'll
illustrated descriptions of .sThe Frigate-
bird" and Of hunt for horses on the
Western plains. s'Lord Cornwallis's
Day." too, is an interesting account Of
somewhat novel celebration in a
Massachusetts village Of an anniversary
Of that generals famous surrender.
The poetry Of the number is furnished
by"H H." Edgar Fawcett, Fanny
Percival. Mary A. Lathbury and Mrs.
Carnay, author Of Little Drops Of

ErriDg.
The close of the two serial will no
doubt be somewhat unwelcome to the
readers Of the magazine, to whom "The
Young Surveyor" and the "Eight
Cousins" must have come to seem like
real personages But the satisfactory
and pleasant ending Of each story will
do much to lessen the sense Of loss at
parting company with these old friends.
