Not Very PolItic, 70 say the Least


TIE Catholic Review boasts that the
Catholic population Of this country is
increasing so rapidly that sit seems to
be merely question Of time, and that
not very remote, when its numbers will
Irspon5erate over all other religious
faiths.n la view of this fact it says:
"We can afford to wait this cOnsummg-
ton of the glorious will Of God" though
TO wait is hard, and to endure assault
while forbidden to strike back, especial
Iy when you know you are able to strike
effectively, requires great f rbearance.
Catholics, We aretold, "don't want to en-.
gage in a fight" but if fight is forced
upon them, let their opponents beware.
"At any moment" says the RSVie1O,
1.-THE Catholics of the United States
move as tOjy, they can decide any
election. We know that they cannot,
nor do they desire to, form distinct
political party; but they can make any
such parry triumphant or insure its de-
feat" This, we sre told, is "not bid
for the favor OF Democrat or Republi-
can,n but then, at the same time, we
are informed that "the Republican party
is about to die," and We are left to infer
that the hopes of the Catholics are in
the Democratic party. The ReUieO af-
fects great calmness and serenity, but
under present circumstances does mot
think it iDadvisable to recommend all
rejecting Catholics to ponder sOmewh at
upon the strength their numbers give
them" Uttersnces such as these are
calculated to induce others than CathO-
lies to "ponder"

. Another debate has taken place in th
u House of Commons on the subject of th,
- political prisoners, with the usual result
!. =. On Tuesday night Mr.. O'Conner Power
q moved the motion of which he had some
weeks before given notice, and in support
4 i've speech. He was followed by Mr.. Ke-
f nelm Digby, and several other Irish mem
" oers, who used every argument in favor of
3 release which might be supposed tb have
any ettectupon the Ministerial bench. But
the great speech of the night on this side
, was that of Mr.. John Bright, who inter
a"@ declared that the Manchester men
would never have been hanged had they
not been regarded as political offenders.
On the other side there appeared a cor
tain General" Shute, who delivered a
really terocious address, worthy of the worst
days OF % or the Cromwellian era Mr.
Anderson, the member for GLASGOW and
two or three members of the Government.
who repeated the old assertion so stoutly
combated by the member for Birmingham.
and, we may add, so often refuted during
t1e last tew years that it requires no ordi-
nary amount of au6acity to hazard it at the |
present time before any set OF intelligent
men. When Ministers persisted in taking |
th1s line, there was, of course, no hope Of |
carrying the motion which gave rise to dis
cusslon, and accordingly Mr.. Power ex-
pressed h1N readiness not to go to a division.
Bnt even this course would not be allowed,
and one OF the typical votes was taken in
which the voice of Ireland was over whelm-
ed by the intrusion of a recslessly hostile
British majority. The Division list shows,
that the minority (53 tellers ineluded) was
made up of 30 Irish, two Scotch, and I9
English members, and the majority f}I7) of i
70 English, 10 Irish and "a Scotch, Twenty
nlne members of the Government were in the
majority. The Only members OF the late
who voted with the minor
ty were Mr.. Bright and Or. Playfair. or

uencies 60 were absent, OF whom IL are
