DOMESTIC CHARITY.

The Catholic /Reyieac New York) dis
courses very/trutbtully on duty we are
all too apt to ignore We may never give
q penny in what is ordinarily called char
ity, and yet, be Justly accounted charita-
BILE. In q word, we can be charitable with
our tongue, and it is the exercise of this
branch Of the virtue which is least under
stood by people in general. We have
known persons conspicuous for good works,
and who in the worlds eye are remarkable
for their charity, who would not hesitate to
speak ill of their neighbOrs. Charity COM
mands rs never to lessen another in the es-
TEEN of any one. If We know evil of q neigh
Dor We must keep it secret, unless it be-
comes absolutely necessary TO reveal 1t, In
order to avoid come scandal or danger, or
again, in order to warn IN innocent person
who might be contaminated by evil COM
pany, and who may suffer from our silence.
If We hear q person ill-spoken of, We are
bound to put q stop to the story told re-
specting them, if no good can come Of its
| relation; aud we are also commanded by
charity to place the best Interpretation on
| it, to excuse rather than accuse the indivl-
| dual who is in fault. In short, charity bids
us take the most cheerful view of others
| and to place them in the most favorable
light. We should remember, when we are
| about to tell some tale regarding our trends,
the saying of French writer: (" believe
only half of what Gee, and only quarter
| of what hear" meaning that, as . rule, we
only know and see one side of the account,
and know nothing of the causes which led
| up to its occurrence, and that people are 80
much in the habit of exsggeratiDg that we
rarely hear q thing told az it really occur:
red. But instead of this we rush ahead and
often add to and embellish the most danger
QUE stories, just as our imagination and
fancy dictates, and many SANDER and
piece of gossip, if We were to examine into
it, may safely be put under the head Of
those things of which the wish was father
to the thought. There is no sadder spec
tacle than that presented by a Catholic
gossip, for Catholics know better than tc
occupy themselves about other peoples
sins and offeuses, besides having generally
quite sufficient to employ them in the con
temptation of their own. But to avoid gos
sipiDg does not by itself make us charitable
To be deserving of this most honorable
title, we must do many things. 1t is
sweet act of charity to speak kindly to all
to be obliging, anxious to serve others
affable to interiors, and respectful to supe
riors.

BRIEF OF PIUs TX, TO THE CATHOLIC
UNION OF ITALY.-The Holy Father has ad
dressed the following letter to the Catholic
Union of Italy Beloved Children-health
and apostolic benediction. Whilst the
powers of Satan and the malignity of man
conspire against the Lord and against his
Christ, with such obstinate energy endea-
voring to break Catholic unity and to ruin,
if possible, the Church, it would be i'm
proper for the faithful to STAND idle when
they see every day the mouths of the re-
verend pastors and ministers closed, and
manacles and letters placed upon them to
prevent them from defending the rights Of
religion, from pointing out to their people
the snares and dangers which beset them,
and from supporting and confirming them in
the faith. We deem you therefore worthy
of all praise in that, moved by zeal for the
divine love and for the salvation of your
neigh bors, under the guidance of ecclesias-
tical authority, aud with due respect to the
laws, you oppose to craft wariness, writings
to writings, and direct your strength to
the point where you perceive the foe to
make an attack. Aud lest your forces
should be weakened by being scattered in
various directions, you assemble together
take combined counsel, weigh the peculiar
difficulties and necessities of different loca-
lities, propose remedies and then deter
mine upon the line of action, in order
by unanimity to make your efforts
more eh1cacious and useful. We thank
you therefore for sustaining with such &C
tivity the continuous and severe labors Of
an incessaRt war in behalf of civil and re
ligious society. And WeIare confident you
will combat even to the end with the same
constancy, emboldened by the certain vic
tory of the Church, and b9 the ample spir
itual recompense prepared you. We heart
lily invoke in your behalf all Heavenly aids
towards the fulfillment of your arduou'
enterprise, and meanwhile, as a sign Of thu
Divine favor and pledge of Our good will
We impart to you, and to all the Catholic
associations affiliated with you, the Apos
tolical benediction.-Given in Rome, a
St. Peters, the 23d day of May, 1876
in the thirthieth year of Our Pontificate
Plus PAPA TX.

We have before us 8 masterpiece of the pic
torial and {. preservative" arts, entitled, The
Picturesque World, or Scenes in Many Lands'
preparation nearly three yeaSs, and some OF
the most skillful artists of the two continents
are now employed on it. The picturesque is
the central idoA of the publishers aim, and
therefore the work contains views from all
parts of the world, comprising parks and
palaces cathedrals, churches, abbeys, lakes,
landscapes, ports, etc. OF these illustrations
we need not speak in detail, but we will say
that, judging from the several numbers We
have seen, no choicer selections nor greater
variety of subjects have ever before been
offered to the public in q work of this magni-
tude. Twenty-four pages of text in the first
part are devoted wholly to Rome, that Eternal
City of the marvels of which no one ever tires
of reading. In one place we find q magnificent
view of the ancient Constantinian Basilics OF
st. Peters and~of the Vatican gardens, in an
other we see, occupying a full page, the Fry,
thraean sbyl Sistine of Michael Angelo.
The publishers, Messrs. Estes & Laurist, OF
Boston, have placed the work for sale in the
hands of the enterprising book firm of N. D
Mcdonald & Co., of our city, which fact is &
Sufficient guarantee that all who subscribe fol-
It in the Eve Southern States which the firm
controls will receive tho work as it is pub
lished. Oar esteemed young friend, NJ. P
Hudson, Esq, of Jackson, Miss, who has &C
cepted the travelling agency of the STAR, ha
been appointed by MessTs. Mcdonald d Co
canvassing agent for this splendid work.

Radical Convention.

The nomination of Packard means bayo-
nets, strong. That dignifed sphinx would
never subject himself to the ignominy of
such an overwhelming defeat as he lie GER
tain of sustaining next November if fair
play prevails. He knows very we'll the Be-
cret intentions of the White House, and he
knows that Louisiana is to be counted Re-
publican anyhow. That other Rstute Re-
publican politician whose head is as long,
in its way, az his legs are in theirs, would
never accept the idle compliment of a nom
ination for Congress in district with 1000
Democratic majority, unless he put great
trust in Returning Boards and bayonets.
1t was really wonderful to see the energetic
persistence of a gang of men sweltering in
the July heats of a close room, for a mum
Der of days, just to distribute nominations
to offices which they have not the ghost of q
chance to control by honest polling. 1t
81 nply means that they have been informed
that their nominees shall have the offices
right or wrong.
1t is intimsted ia the press and told on
the street that forty delegates voted for
Packard for consideration of 500 each.
1t is also asserted that Warmoth could have
had them at the same price, as they pre-
ferred him. He did not get them. Perhaps
he began to think they were not worth the
money. The individual alluded to is said
to be a shrewd politician, he had circulated
around a good deal, and it may be that he
began to detect the symptoms of rapid dis.
organization in his party. There were IN.
doubtedly plain spoken men in and about
, the Convention. There were men who
. talked freely of boiling, if bribery and ras
q cality controlled the action of the body. L
q began to look like an impOssibility to work
!. victory out of such q situation. On the on
hand, there was Grant determined that hi
followers should control the Convention
+. on the other, there was the insubordi
# nate ferceness of resolute men bent o.
IL thwartiug Grant and his crowd If the
., carried their point by bribery or iDtimida
tion.

III MORNING STAR AID CATHOLIC MESSENGER SUNDAY JULY

The question Is, against how great o ma
jority can national bsyonets return the
candidates. The Republican party, We are
confident, is shaken to its foundation in
this State. Such men as Tenn Anderson
talk openly of revolving from it's nomina-
lions if dishonesty made. And Tom Ander
son is q power in his own section of coun-
try, odious as his name has grown from it's
Returning Board notoriety. He is man
of immense personal popularity and is said
to be greatly beloved even by his Demo
cratic neighbours. From different sections
of the State come the most authentic re-
ports of q total change of sentiment among
the colored people. They are beginpin g
freely to realize that they have been sold
and ruined by their faithless, mercenary
allies, the csrpet-baggers, and it will be
impo. sibe to turn back this tide of disgust
by intimidation.
In vain will the carpet baggers, the col
ored preachers and the petty negro under
lings Of official places bully and threaten
| in vain will they even shoot and murder a
few of the more outspoken colored dissen
tiers. The negro race is exceedingly stub
born. Blarney and square lying cajoled
them most completely for awhile but that
device is exhausted, and the attempt to
bully them on a big scale in place of it will
Adventures, who have hitherto dictated t.
them, how little they knew of the negro
character.

1pisoopal Jubilee Of che HOLY Father.


1.-TWO great festivals" says the London 1aDtst,
'eaoh connected with the personal history Of
the Sovereign Pontiff. have already been ceie-
brated by Catholics throughout the world
First there was the " Sacerdotal Jubilee" OF
Plus TX, which occurred on the 18th of April,
1869. and in which the Catholic world united
itself in joyful thanksgiving on the occasion OF
the 6ftieth anniversary of the Holy Fathers
promotion to the Sacred Order Of the Priest
hood. Next came the "Pontifca1 Jubilee"
of his Holiness; it was kept the 10Th of
June, 1871, in commemoration and thanksgiv-
ing for the wonderful prolongation of the
Pope's life to see the years of Peter ~; q grace
vouchsafed to no other of the long list of Ro-
man Pontiffs since the fret Popedom, which 10
that Of st. Peter, Prince of the Apostles and
then was also celebrated the half jubilee of the
Ponti6cate itself of Plus TX, who then COM
pleted the twenty fifth year Of his tenure of
the highest dignity on earth. Next year brings
| with it yet another occasion Of these, in one
| sense, greatest Of Church festivals. On the 3rd
July, 1877, will be celebrated by all Catholic
Christendom the Episcopal Jubilee" of Our
Holy Father, namely, the fiftieth anniversary
| of the year and day on which Pope Plus TX.
| received episcopal conservation in the Eudox-
| ian Baslica of San Pietro in Vincoli at Rome
from the hands of Cardinal Castiglioni. who
| himself subsequently assembled the Papsl
throne under the name of Plus VIII. We OBJ
serve By a circular sent us from Bologna that
movement to promote this cele bration has
been inaugurated in Italy under the direction
of the great Central Catholic Young Mems So
| ciety of Italy. This association asks two things
of all Catholics disposed to join in celebrating
the coming Episcopal Jubilee of the Holy
Father. First, prayer for him, for the preser-
walton of his inestimable life and health, and
for his deliverance from the will of his enc
mics; and, secondly, an Offering in proper tion
to the means of each giver, and to the fervo1
of his faith and devotion to the Holy See. The
circular also states that there will be opened
| in Rome an exhibition of all the objects of art
or industrial manufacture that may be offered
to the Holy Father on occasion of the coming
jubilee. This exhibition will be in a certain
sense competitive and "juries" will be ap.
pointed to decide on the respective merits OF
the objects offered, and to award honorary di.
plomas and medals to the successful competi.
tors in the Vatican Exhibition of 1877. There
will also be pilgrimages to the famous Basilics
above-named, to offer prayers for the Holy
Father and his intentions, and deputationl
from all parts of Christendom will approach
the throne of his Holiness to offer their loya
homage and aheotionate congratulations"

TIE LouRpEs SHRINE.-The last number of
tho ARsales de Lourdes informs Ms that thirty
four Archbishops made the pilgrimage to the
famous grotto of Lourdes during the year 1875
within the last few years moro than half q
naillion Of pilgrims have gone there, forming
200 grand PROFESSIONS, without speaking Of the
many isolated pilgrims who took no part in
these PROFESSIONS. The men numbered moro
Ahan $4,000. Almost every country in the
world is represented by its banners at she Sane
tuary of the Immaculate. The same number
of the Annales also gives list of moro than
thirty miraculous cures that took place during
the year 1875 alone, by the intercessiOn Of Our
Lady OF Lourdes, and this list is far from com
plete. More than seventy foreign Preacber'
spoke at the shrine during the came year
among whom were some of the most famous
pulpit orators of the Catholic Church.
