The Count de Nuns election as Deputy in
Register, " is a matter of profound congratula-
tim. His zeal as a Catholic, his genius as an
orator, his youth, his chivalry, naturally recall
to mind the opening, thirty years ago, of the
csreeer of Montalembert. AS a champion of
the Faith Oayman though he is), as defender
of the claims of the Papacy, as vindicator of
the rights of the Church, his reputation is al
ready established. In all those capacities his
fame is recognized throughout Cath olic France
before he has fairly assumed his place as a Par
liamentary speaker in the Tribune of the
Chamber of Deputies. NJ. de Nun has already
been elected, has already spoken from the Tri
bune, has already extorted the applause of the
Legislature, His success, so far: however, wal
only temporary. Upon the ungenerous pies
| that his election had been vitiated by undut
! clerical influence, the picked champion of Ca
tbolcism in France was unseated. Prior to hi
being thus unseated, he contrived, neverthe
less, to extort from the ex-Dictator, Leon Gam
beta, panegyric upon his eloquence that as
sociated his name and fame with the name an
fame of II. de Montalembert. The career c
his illustrious predecessor, we cannot but thinl
will be to him doubly advantageous. 1t wi
be to him, at once, and quite easy, an inceE
tive and warning. The Count de Nun, "
feel assured, from his antecedents, will kno
perfectly where to follow and where not
follow the footsteps of Charles de Montalen
. bert"

FEAST OF OUR LADY OF MERCY.

To-day we commemorate the Feast of Our
Lady of Mercy. On the Gath day of September,
1927, the first house of the Order of Mercy was
opened, in the city of Dublin, by that holy
woman, Catherine McAuley, whose spiritual
daughters are, with only one exception, the
most numerous body of religious women now
existing in the Church.
In commemOrajon of which occasion, and in
testimony of the heroic work accomplished by
the Sisters of Mercy, We publish the following
extract, taken from the Life of Catherine Nc
Auley, by Sister of Mercy:
