St. Michael's Parish.

In all spheres of life good judgment and
energy make themselves felt in the long run,
but in none are their effects more plainly seen
by the general public than in the administra-
ton of the affairs of an ecclesiastical parish.
The condition of private enterprises is known
to few outside of those Immediately interested;
that of a city or State, with it's complex system
of government, is rarely known with certainty
by the masses, and, even then, cannot be at
tributed to the administrative ability of one
oflcer or the inoompetenoy of another, because
power is 80 distributed and changes are so con-
slant that it is impossible to fix the RESPONSE
bility where it justly belongs. But the condition
of a parish is known and seen by all in the
number, piety and liberality ofits congregation,
in the efficiency of tssohools, and in the beauty
and appointments of its church edifce. And
for this the responsibility rests directly upon
one person-the pastor.
Judged by this standard, the people of st.
Michaers have good reason to congratulate
themselves on the happy inspiration of His
Grace the Most Rev. Archbishop, in appoint.
ing Rev. Thos. Heslin Pastor of that parish
two years ago. During the short time which
has elapsed since that event, Father Heslir
has fully justified the confidence of His Grace
and fairly surpassed the expectations of ever
his most sanguine friends.
He has built and furnished splendid briol
school.house, repaired the church and paroohia

national pride is offended at the suggestion
that Republican President may not re-
ceive as great respect as an emperor. That
Ulysses should be accepted as Wesleyan
Saint we consider essentially reasonable.
He smokes tons of finest Havana, it is
true, but luxury lie no defect and nortifica-
ton NO virtue in Bishop Haven's sect. He
is o fervent worshiper at the throne of
Bacchus, but temperance is a matter OF
taste among those who interpret even
the Bible according to their private
reason. He will be known in hi tory as the
champion ring-master and bis administra-
ton recognized as of all the most openly
and unblushingly tolerant of thieves and
plunderers, but then he preferred Radical
knaves and cent good Methodist robbers
among the Indians. That was an iodubita
BILE mark of his Christian policy; that, the
cause of the "silent love )" that, the expires
sion of the "humane sentiment )" and
hence, the "anxious insecurity" about the

FATHER ABBorr's MISSION IN FRANKLIN.

FRANKLIN, La, Jan. gath, 1874.
For the last ten days Rev. T. j. Abbot, C.M.,
has been here in franklin guiding and assisting
MS in the performance of the exercises eff the
Jubilee.
We were happy to see that the Catholics of
our town participated generally in the public
professions, showing thereby true spirit of
Christianity in protesting openly their faith to
all men. Whites and black, by their unity,
piety and sssiduity in attending the exercises,
gave practical evidence of their submission to
that Holy Mother which looks upon all as her
children, and by her teachings and practices
shows that her mission is to lead all to Him
who created them.
Seldom, if ever, have we had an opportunity
of listening to more practical sermons than
those delivered by Father Abbott, morning
aud evening, during these past ten days. The
Rev. Father instructed all and, strange to say,
for he told many hard truths which came home
to many of us, pleased all, and his words have
produced an impression which, let US hope,
will be as lasting as it is deep.
Father Abbott chose for his sermons the
most practical and important subjects, such
THE Sanctity of Christian Marriage" "The
necessity of giving to God the things that are
Gods and to Cesar the things that are Cesar's,''
"Tbe Enormity of the Sin of Scandal" Duties
of Parents and Children Devotion to the
Blessed Virgin" Injustice etc.
Father Abbott asked us to say one "Hail
Mary" for him; we have done so, but in
addition, and in gratitude for the benefits con-
ferred on Us, we have also begged the "Refuge
of Sinners" to give him the grace and strength
to fulfill the duties of his sublime vocation.
Such men as he are sadly needed throughout
our fair Southern land, in many parts of which
priest has never been seen, but where it lie
confidently believed by all who acquainted
with the character of our people, the field is
| ripe for the harvest.
Father Abbott's great excellence as pulpit
orator and his zeal in the service of his Master
mark him out specially fitted for just
suoh work as this; and have no doubt that
if, instead of being in large city like New
Orleans, where you always have many good
/ preachers, he were always on the wing, stop
ping here and there in our towns to give mis-
sions, the good he would accomplish would be
| simply inestimable. More

residence, built belfry and purchased o large
bell, supplied the church with bapsismal
font and vestments, and done other work
equally necessary for the welfare OF the people
committed to his charge.
AS some people understand questions of this
kind only when they are illustrated with
the sign 8, we give the following statement,
kindly furnished us by Father Heslin:
Debt on the church when he took oharSo...s %
Cost Of furniture spo for school loo 90
Repairs of church bell and sslfry vestments, ~, ~,
baptismal font. ETC. $1,000. 5000 90
n. Total s SoS 0 0U
Leaving debt 800
of which $500 is on the church and $4,000 on
the schoolhouse.
Truly this is q splendid record for small
and poor parish-a record which speaks loud
ar for pastor and people than any words we
could write. It shows the liberality Of the
people, and the energy of the pastor, and
proves that with one more effort the finances
of the parieh can be placed in as healthy q con-
dition as are its other interests. This effort will
be made during tho ensuing week, the ladies,
ever formost in good works, having underta-
ken to hold fair for the benefit of the parish.
This entertainment will commence on the 18th
inst, and will continue about ten days. 1t
will be held in the large hall of the new
schoolhouse and, we are convinced, will be one
of the most pleasant entertainments of the
season. 1t is to be hoped that it will also be q
success financially, for Father Heslin has to
pay off $4,000 of the debt above mentioned i'm
medately, and to the Fair he looks as the only
means of saving him from serious embarrass-
mGnt0.

LETTER FROM MOBILE.
MOBILE, January 31st, 1876.

MOBILE, January 31st, 1876.
Editor Morning Star:
We were all made glad Christmas Day by
the announcement from Father Imsand that
Your good Father McKiniry sbad accepted an
invitation to give the parish of st. Joseph .
mission. The mission commenced on Sunday,
at High Mass, when the Rev. Missionary
preached, to fuH congregation, q sermon such
as is seldom heard. Tha. night the church
was again filed for the evening exercises. The
regular exercises were at 81 A.. Me- 3 p. n. and
~ p Il. daily. At each Of the devotions the
congregation was very large. On Tuesday, at
A. NJ, the Forty Hours' commenced, closing
on Thursday. On Friday evening our mission
closed, Father McKiniry preaching practical
and forcible sermon. OF conversions will
not speak, for Father Imsand is, as all Jesuits
are, O daily missionary, always preaching
pensnce; but was much pleased to see the
church filled at the different services, and
all devout and attentive. I know the good
Fathers felt happy seeing the lost sheep re-
turned to the fold. Our good Pastor lives for
his flock his sodalities for young ladies, young
men, misses, for the grown men and ladies are
daily increasing in numbers his assembly of
the Bona lors, on the fourth Sunday of each
month, is we'll attended, and We would believe
he has done enough but no, he is now estab-
fishing here the great and good Society of the
Apostleship of Prayer, of which Father Sestini
is the Director of the United States, and
Father Gautrelet is the Director in New Or
leans.
regret to say that good Father Imsand has
not been az well as usual, owing to the strange
weather we have had. He is just now very
much better The weather may be an excuse
for his i'll. health, but my opinion is it is hard
work, and wherever he will be, there will 10
have hard work.
Our good Bishop has left for trip through
his diocese, taking with him Father Ryan. 1
wonder if he has not made up his time to give
some of our Alabama friends in the interior q
taste of Father Ryan's lectures. Father Nc
Donough 1 see occasionally, always happy and
contented. No one appeals to him in distress
or for advice but is relieved when leaving him.

Appeal for a Noble Charity.

NATCHEZ, January 81, 1876
To the Patrons of the Morning STAR
We would call your attention to the Fair, to
be opened in Natchez on February 9Th, for the
benefit of st. Msry'S and D'Evereaux Hall
Asylums. These Institutions have not only
all the orphans of our own State but likewise
great number from Louisiana. They are
really destitute of means, and very much in
debt for provisions and clothing, We have
113 little, helpless children, under fifteen, who
are unable to do anything for themselves, and
who are depending upon this annual Fair and
the contributions connected with it for their
chief means of support.
None know better than we the frequent
demands made on our New Orleans friends, and
we have noted, with wonder and pleasure, their
prompt and liberal response to the call for aid.
Most strongly, then, do We appeal to their kind
hearts for donations to this great charity. Not
only will you receive the heartfelt thanks of
the lady managers, but your names will be
waited to the Throne of Cod from the lips OF
those innocent little ones to whom your chart
ties are extended.
Cast thy bread upon the waters, and IL shall b
| returned 20 thee a hundred fold"
Contributions, if left at the Morning Sta1
office, will be duly forwarded and thankfully
| accepted. ONE INTERESTED.

Rev. Father Mauorita has transformed the
old Mortuary Chapel, Rampant street. into
quite a handsome little church. Under the
patronage of st. Anthony of Padua, it serves
as a special house of worship for the Italians of
this city, though it is 30 conveniently located
that many of the residents of the Second Dis
trict, of other nationalities, attend services
within its walls.
We understand that the ladies of the con.

month, for the purpose of paying off the debt
incurred in repairing the church and in pur.
