L4CORDAIRE.

| The attention of Catholics in France has
| been painfully directed of late to the ruinous
Order by certain members of the family of the
| late eminent sud sanity Frisr preacher the
Rev Pere Lacordaire 1t appears that II. Leon
Lscordaire, brother and legal heir to the de-
ceased, claims immense sums from the Order
on the gTound that religious communities
possess no legal status in France, the Fathers
csnnot take or Inherit the property alleged to
have been brought into the Order by his
brother, Henri Lscordsire The latest though
We fear not tie last, of the legal proceedin 70
to which these claims have given rise, was an
appeal by the Frisr prescbers from the decision
OF the Court of Castles to the superior tribunal
at Toulouse. 1t Was argued at great length,
and Maitre jules Favre, who was retained
against the Donlnicsns, indulge in q good
deal of violent invective and calumny against
the Religious Orders in general and the
Dominicans in particular. 1t was proved on
behalf of the Order, that the late Pere Lacor-
dslre bro1ght 10 funds with him into the Order,
but il was admitted that subsequently, to bis
profession considerable sums were paid 70 the
Father by way of heHorGrid, for the course Of
Lsuten and other sermons preached By him a.
Notre Dame, P4Tis, and elsewhere, and that
various amounts were received from booksellers
In payment for the copyrights OF his numerous
published ks. These moueys however
were al disbursed by Pere Lacoroaire himself
before his death, for the support of the e1pen-
sIve charitable and educational works under
taken by him; his own personal expenditure
being always on limited and self-denying
scale as that Of the Lumblest member of the
Order.
The decision of the High Court of Toulouse
was to reverse the finding of the Lower Court
il SO far sS it touched the msiE sueston at is |
sue-the accountability Of the Order iteelf !
but several collateral and personal issues |
there still remain facts 10 be tried, and on |
others the judgment of the Court seems to have |
been adverse 50 that there is great reason to |
fear that the final result of the whole of this |
groundless and yexRtious litigation will be |
sadly detrimental to the interests of the Dom |
MOAN Order. The anomalous position occu-
pied at present by the Religious Communities
of France before the law, unfortunately places
them TO a considerable extent ct the mercy of |
any malicious or unprincipled litiESnt.

ton, formerly q resident of New Orleans and
connected with your paper"
Born in Ireland some thirty odd years ago
Mr.. Barton's family emigrsted to Illinois when
he was bot two years OF age. Trained under
the careful eye of his good old Irish parents
and enjoying all the advantages and COM
promise OF II useful future, and, it was thought
developed a vocation for the Ministry. With
this object in vie1 he wss sent to College in
Missouri at early age, but rigid discipline
and the rigors of the climate undermined his
constitution, aud he WAS compelled to surren-
der all bile bright hopes, aud To remove to our
genial Southern cline. In 1865 be came to
New Orleans and secured position on the
MoRSLSG STAR, and in 1869 transferred his
services, as collector and solicitor to the PicG-
yHHe. Two years afterwards he was, at his
own request, given exclusive control of our
Texas agency. To his bitter sorrow and dis
appointment the active aud cougeniaf life OF q
travelling sSent brought no strength to his
weakening frame and he was finally compelled
70 give up his position. He then secured a
rancho IL Maverick County, ard in the com
parhtiSa sohtude Of that vast country which
torms TIE Western boundary of Texas, with no
con- pauious save the two Mextcans who tended
his locks, ne passed the last months of his life

he won many warm friends. He was also
highly esteemed by his teiIow.countrymeu

drawing him INTO the patriotic organizations

the Orssuiz3Ts OF the Hibernisn Association |
the first secretary Cf its Central Board aud held
other positions of honor and responsibility.
Mr. BArton's last years were passed in the !
Tsin fort to find beeith and strength, and while
there is no roOm for any but selfish regret |
that he has exchsDged the an1eties aud suffer
ings of this world for the peace aud happiness
which must now be his in the next, the most
csllous heart must be touched at the thouKht |
thAt he died far away from his home, far from
his aged parents who had foEdly cherished the |
hope of seeing him restored TO them in the full |
strength Of young manhood, from sister and
brothers, hSn all who loved him and from all
that he loved, and without even one oId-time
friend TO receive bis last message and to console
snd soothe him in the bitter hour of his agony.
