support of temperance It's battle muet DO
fought with disciplined persistence and its
conquests occupied inch by inch.
The disciplined armies of temperance
are found in the various societies that have
manfully organized under her banner. ihey
do not limit themselves to idle words OF
fruitIess sentiment; they act boldly ahu
aggressively, though prudently. Ihelf
members are not satisfied with securing their

the enemy and strive to gain from 1t re-
cruits to the great cause of morality and
humanity which they represent. The pro-
gress of such war is slow, but with cour
age aud grace it must be onward to hnnl
victory. 1t is the great means pointed out

needed.
In our opinion the best way to forward
the cause of temper ance is jass the plan
adopted by our own Catholic Total Absti
nence Association of this city. 1t calls
religion TO it's aid, and from that pure
spring draws the fortitude and perseser-
ance without which permanent success
would be impossible. The general COM
munion of all it's branches, which takes

great lessons embodied in these three marble

Converts.

The Presbyterian Of this city thinks it
strange that Arch5ishop Bayiey ana Car
dinal Manning should have risen to such
universal esteem and such lofty pre-emi-
neuce in the Catholic hierarchy after having
once been Episcopalian clergymen. Says
the Presbyterian:
infellibility, and the keys of the kingdom, and
the Inheritance OF all spiritual gifts and powers
compelled TO Geek among the EplscopanenE
q sect which she vehementiy despiseeNwnn'
she cannot find among her own sons-tnst ID,
leaders for the Church IN those lands ~nere
they are now struggling for supremacy
The PRESBYTERIAN thinks this odd. and We
think such an argument on its part exceed
ingly odd. Did eur neighbor remember ct.
Paul while ineubating upon the foregoing
fea1fully weak piece of reasoningf Saul was
a man of immense learning, zeal and power,
and be became q Christian "leader" in the
broadest sense of the term yet he was
| taken from amougst the Phariseee. Phar.-
salem had produced man fslly the equal
in all respects of any Episcopalian clergy
man who ever has, or hss not, become
Catholic. Christianity was not ashamed
then to accept "leader" from such
source. And it will not do to urge that tae
Church had not then existed long enough
to form subjects of its own from whom TO
choose leaders, because although it has since
existed for eighteen centuries and more, 1t
has never yet produced another such leader.
The Presbyterian still seems to have
indistinct ideas of "Infaliibiiity and the
keys Of the kingdom" for it confounds
them with "all spiritual gifts and powers"
Our kind ueighbor ought to be satisfied
with our Church as it finds her and not
manufacture q new one for ua. The Cath
Ole Church, as Catholics understand mat
tiers, has not "the Inheritance of all spiritual
gifts and powers" She has no power OF
} giving vocations, no power of selecting
those upon whom the gifts of tie Holy
Ghost shall most potently descend for the
direction and conversion of sou!s. The
Church has the absolute power of confer
ring the sacramental graces only, but there
are thousands Of other graces of which men
are daily and hourly the recipients and in
conferripg which che is only indirectly
instrumental. There 10 DO reaeon in the
constitution of the Church why God shoald
be bound to distinguish among Catholics,
as to whether they are or are not converts,
} in choosing those upon whom his highest
| graces shall be poured out.
3 The Church of God Welcomes al who
come humbly. 1t is immaterai from what
sect they come, provided they leave their
, errors behind. Eesthena, Jewa, Mormons,
Episcops!iars, SpirituahsSe, Free Masons,
Metbod,sts, Infdels, Baptiste, Atheists,
even Calvinists, are all gladly received
and once the light Of God shines in upor
their souls, all pIeViops error is as utterly
', annihila'eG as though it had never existed
"a If our confrele of the Presbyterian has beel
g withheld from the paths OF truth by TIL
ID fear that he would not have an eqoa
g. chance for becoming a "leader, let HIM Ia
aside his fears and come. His Tejecte
Calvinism will never count against him.

Fiction of the severest punishment, he could
not tell lie. grieve to say that there are
reputable grocers and merchants who will
assure you that any other starch is as good
as the Duryea's. The awards of the great
Centennial at Philadelphia have settled that
question, and they have proclaimed that as

none equal to that manufactured by the
