Catholics and Ritualists.

You may have noted in the late correspondence
between Lord Nelson and Father Bowden, if it
has been noticed in America, the scOrn or even
hatred which the Catholic maniiestS towards ritu-
alism. That feeling daily grows in intensity.
That Catholics feels that the ritualist is counter
feiting his best coins, stealing his thunder, and
to some extent standing in the way of his success.
And this is perfectly true. If the spirit of the
recent laws putting down ritualism shonld be car
ricd out, the English Church would be reduced
to a place for n mere evangelical sermoniZing,
hardly more attractive than some nOncOnformist
conventicles. In that case there are thousands
of people here who love symbols and forms, and
mystical lamps and candles, people who have in.
herited the feeling that these pretty and antique
things are religion, and they are only kept from
seeking them in the Roman Catholic Church by
the extent to which their tastes have been hither-
to satisfied in the ritualistic national Churches.
For this reason the Roman Catholic Church re-
ioices in every judicial decision which tends to
give them n monopoly of what charm may lay in
candles, incense and costumes.
On the other hand, the ritualists appear resolY-
ed not to give up, without a tremendous struggle,
their right to be Anglican, and to have comics
SIGNALS, candles and things, too. On the evening
of July 18th, 4 very large conference of lay
c~hurchmen, from which both the c%lergymen and
ladies were vigorously excluded, occurred here on
this matter. Here, also, it is stated, military
men, among then Captain Fortcsque and Major
Mutt, were prominent, ana the meeting unanl-
mously declared the Public Worship Regulation
Act-an Act to put down ritualism-an infringe
ment of their Liberty. They urged the bishops
to refuse the concurrence necessary TO any pro-
ceedings under it, and they pledged themselves to
aid any olergymen prosecuted under that act of
the court, % inssmuch as the said court is a secu-
lar court attempting to exercise spiritual au-
thority. These gentlemen recognise the supreme
power of the temporal authority, so far as it is
expressed on prietly subsidies and protecting en-
dowments, but when duties are demanded as the
condition of services rendered, then they protest
against secular authority.-M. ID. COnwdy'S

The Towers of Silence.

The Towers of Silence lie at the end OF the
Parsee's earthly pilgrimage. When a Parsee
dies, his body is exposed in one of these singular
structures, that the dccaying particles may be
way" says one Of themselves 4" that neither
Mother Earth nor the beings she supports shall
be, contaminated in the slightest degree"
The Parsees, as most readers are doubtless
aware, are descendants of the ancient Persians,
who were expelled from Persia by the Moham-
medan conquerors, and who first settled at Surat
about 100 years ago. According to the last
census they do not number more than 20, 600
souls, of whom 80, 900 are found in the city of
Bombay, the rest being scattered throughout
different parts of India, bnt chiefly residing in
Guzerat and the Bombay Presidency. They are
a small but most important and influential body
Of men noted for their energy, enterprise, and
o~pulence. The most curious feature of their re-
ligion is its apparent worship Of fire and the
other elements, regarded by them as visible re-
presentations of the Deity.
Nothing similar to their funeral rites exists
among other nations. The Towers of Silence
stand in a garden on the highest point of Mala-
bar Hill, in the neighborhood of Bombay. 1t is
a beautiful spot, a place of silence ard peaceful
rest. There are five Towers in all. A sixth
structure stands apart it is square in shape-not
round like the others-and is only used for men,
bers of the community who have suffered death
for heinous crimes. On the parapet OF each
tower usually sit a troop Of ~yultures, lazy and
motionless, unless when q funeral is seen ap-
proaching-then they show signs of great excite
ment.
After q funeral, after the recital Of prayers and
some other ceremonies, the corpse is placed in the
interior of the tower chosen, and abandoned to
the destructive agencies of nature and the insatia-
bic birds. At the end Of a fortnight, or at most
four weeks, the corpsebearers-who form a dis
tlnct class among the Parsees, and live apart from
the rest OF the community-return, and with i'm
plements resembling tongs, place the dry skeleton
in a well In the centre of the building. Rich
and poor all lie together. : In these five towers, "
says tho Secretary of the Parsee Punchaysl, 'rest
the bones of all the Parsees that have lived in
Bombay for the last two hundred years. We
form a united body in life, and we are united in
death"

AMERICAN RIFLE PRATICE--A hundred
years ago there was no doubt as to the ma
tlonality OF the rifieman. He was peculiar
and Switzerland. The Swiss, until very re-
Gently, have changed little In their habits
and weapons. The short Yager rifle, with its
two grooves and heavy bullet, has retained
Its superiority for the short-range work OF
the mountain side, where chamois M asst be
stopped with q large wound II you hope TO
save him. Outside OF the mountains the
shot gun has been the hunting weapon OF all
who shoot at all, and rifle shooting has been
held In small repute.
In America there has been, on the other
hand, great change OF habits. Step by step
with the advance OF civiiiz alton the use OF
the rife has disappeared from the old aud
settled states, passing away to the west and
southwest, but lingering In the valleys OF
the Allegheny ridges, while the borderers Of
march OF the bison columns and Indians
raidfng parties. The revival OF the rifle as q
weapon In these late days hes been accom-
panied with considerable change In its form
role 1t has to play. Tne ride of the last CEN
tury, both in Europe and American, was
nrst hunting weapon, and only second
ly an implement Of war. The American
ly larger than q pea, had q special value
for our old trappers and frontiersmen. It
enabled them to carry great many rounds
In small compass, and to start out for a
Northwestern Fur Company, with q pound
OF powder and four pounds Of lead fer their
whole provision, allowing two shots q day
and ffty yards or so, was amazingly accur-
ate, and stories OF squirrels shot In the eve
on tree top, or Of "driving the nailn into a
tree with bullet at one hundred PAGES,
were no exaggerations. With such q tiny
bullet 1t was necessary to shoot close, and
touch the brain or heart OF the game every
time, when dinner depended on success.

THELITTLE FRENCH WoMAN's CoRsErs
At the great Exposition Of Philadelphia is
q jury designated as No. 8. 1t examined
rubber goods, among which are considered,
by license Of power, corsets. On the jury is
q smart French politician named Dietz-
mannae. The whole jury Is atten tive and
just, and as there were thousands OF patent
corsets, the devoted class OF No. had TO
tumble them through, each patent shown by
an expert. AT last when they were all, as Il
was supposed, done and relieved, q some
what meager young female rushed In and
demanded audience for another patented
sort Of corset. "Very well" said the French
man, with polite resignation. The little
woman wrapped the corset around him and
expatiated at tiresome length on Its perfec.
tion. The jury stood up and felt OF 1t, clasped
and unclasped IL, looked wise-and tired.
MADAM" exclaimed Dietzmannae," !" what Is
the especial merit you claim for this corset?,
"The fit Monsieur" "But we cannot tell
how II fits. What proof have we OF thst?"
The little woman fared right up. "Why,u %
she retorted, "you don't mean TO say you
want me TO try them on?" Madam" said
the juryman, without q smile, Justice is
