dent children to their Father. We
may perceive it in the movement of
Catholic nations in SO many devout
pilgrimages. We may trace this
commotion in the echo of the fervid
prayers which arise unto God in the
sacred temples. The crowded tribu-
nails of pennance and the thronged
enthusiastic tables prove also that
there is movement amor ? the ruins
of the Church of jesus Christ.
But at this time what will be the
fate of the impious who are persecu-
ting the Church? We have the RIGHT
to believe that the present persecu-
tors OF the Church will have no other
end than that of their predecessors,
and that in the time ordained by
Providence, God will stretch out his
favoring hand over the Church. We
may expect that when the Church
shall have been completely purged
and set free from the chains with
which her foes and prosecutors now
bind her, God will cover her with a
vestment of gold, and cause her to
sit as queen at the right hand of
her divine founder. Astitit Reo;,,a

Mr.. Stewards CARE OF AN OLD
SERvANT.-On the 2lst OF March, 1879,
Mr.. A. 7. Stewart called on DR.. Moreau
Morris, City Sanitary Superintendent,
and Informed him that Rebecca Turner,
who had been in his family as domestic
for many years, was stricken with the
smallpox. Mr.. Stewart pleaded very
earnestly that she be not removed
while i'll, but that he be allowed to
isolate her on.the top floor of his house,
No. 355 Fifth Avenue, and promised
that if necessary he would destroy all
the carpets and furniture and tear down
the interior of the house to prevent
infection. DR.. Morris consented to
allow the case to be isolated under the
supervision of DR.. Brown, Sanitary
and a member of the
disinfecting corps, and Mr.. Stewart
and his family took refuge on the
first floor of the house. Rebecca's
sister, who had had the smallpox, was
sent by Mr.. Stewart to nurse her, but
in about three weeks Rebecca died,
and her sister took the disease again.
Finally Mr.. Stewart and his family
moved into the house in which he died,
although at that time it was only
partly finished, and Rebecca's sister
was tenderly cared for and recovered.
When she was we'll enough to leave,
he disinfecting corps thoroughly
'umigated the old house, and destroyed

A Brave Sea Captain.

Details of a shipwreck-that of the
Frederick-which have now reached
US, prove to be most hcart-rending
The vessel struck the rocks Off Can
Poulet at IL o'clock, aud although she
was near the shore ut the moment, the
night was so dark and the waves 50
high that nothing was heard or seen OF
the tragical circumstances. All those
ON board to"k refuge on the mG:sts,
which were the only places ont of the
reach of the violence of the sea.
Among them were the captain and his
wife, a young woman of only twenty
one years of age, whose infant was
torn from her arms by one of the
waves that invaded the cabin. These
unfortunate people chung to tile rig
ging for several hours until it began to
give way, and then each began to think
of saving his own life by a desperate
plunge in the sea and an effort to gain
the beach. The captain "a young and
vigorous maa of the same age as his
wife-could probably have succeeded
in this better than any of his seamen,
but, with sublime devotion, he refused
to do so in the presence of his ill-fated
companion, already half dead from
cold and fatigue; and when, short
time after the first indications of Civ
ing way, the mainmast fell, be and his
devoted wife disappeared from the eyes
of the survivors, closed in last en-
brace. In the supreme struggle which
ensued among the crew to gain the
land ouly two succeeded. By dint of
superhuman efforts they reached the
shore in a miserable plight. One of
them had the greatest difficulty in OBJ
tanning shelter. With his clothes in
rags and speaking foreign language,
the honest farmers took him for an es-
capped convict, bat at length allowed
him to rest in an clubhouse of one of
their farms. Such were the hardships
that he endured that it is doubtful
whether he will survive. The bodies
of the captain and his wife and the rest
of the crew have been washed ashore,
and will be decently buried. 1t may
be added that the Frederick was not,
as was at first supposed, a Norwegian
bark, but belonged to the port of Ham
burg.--[Paris Telegram to the London

A BABooN MoTHER.-A woman be-
longing to settlement of about $50
souls went one day to gather some
wood and left her child on the ground
to take care of itself. While the
mother was gone female baboon ap-
peared on the scene, and espying the
child approached and fondled it.
The child was allowed to partake of
the baboon's milk, which deprived
it of any appetite for its mother s.
When the mother returned she no.
ticed that the child was carefully
covered over with leaves and had
lost Its hunger. This was done for
several days before the mother ascer-
tanned who performed the unthank-
full act. When the mother did find
out the doer she induced the men of
her tribe to lie in wait for the baboon
the next day. The animal noticed
the men raise their weapons to fire,
and began to waive her hand, or paw
as if asking them not to kill her, and
at the same time, pointed to a young
one at her breast. But the natives
killed her. No sooner had they done
so, however, than the male baboon
put in his appearance, and by loud
shout, summoned others of his tribe
to the spot. Then, in a body, the
animals attacked the natives, and
forced them to flee to their huts for
safety. One Of the balloons tracked
them to their settlement, and the
next day they were visited by about
five hundred balloons, who assaulted
them with cocoanuts and compelled I
them to run away from their homes.
The animals kept watch over the
huts for several days and prevented
the natives from returning to their
dwellings.-[Mr. Hazely's African
Lectures.
