WHATNExT Last DC sober ono Of the parish
priests of Posen, Herr Podenski, was prosecuted
for having granted . deportation from fastiSS.
It was novel crime to bring before . lay TIL
bunal! But the prosecutor saw in it " . usuE-
patton of episcopal rights" He was acquitted
on the ground that to dispense ftOm fGsting
was an act of Papal and not episcopal an
thority. An appeal was taken by the prOsecn-
ton. The Court Of Appeal has just decided
that although the faculty of granting such
dispsnsstions is of Papal origin, yet it used to
be exercised in the Diocese of Posen by q com-
munication to the parish priests of powers
contained in the faculties delegated quinquen-
nially by the Holy See to the Archbishop.
Now delegated" as we'll as ordinary powers,
are included under the 'rights of the episcopal
office" dealt with by the Law of May, 1874.
Hence Herr Pedzinski was guilty of ''usurping
episcopal rights" there being no legal occu
pant of -" the episcopal Office since the depo-
Sition of Count LedOchowski." Tho poor
priest was sentenced to imprisonment for sspsR
months for granting dispeusatiOn on thrseng
cssiOns Can anything be more monstEoas
than this assumption of = lay tribunal to dsaA

Non-Action.

In our issue of week before last we took
occasion to deplore the misfortune of our
people in the inopportune illness of Gov.
Nichols at the moment when Grant re-
voked his statm quo order. The daily
papers announced his indisposition as being
Of so severe character as to incapacitate
him for official business. We have since
learned that there was something of exag-
geration in those reports, and that Gov.
Nichols, though really quite i'll, never
abandoned the helm of State.
Such being the case, we Ietract our
homily on bad Luck" The inaction of
the period Immediately preceding Presi
dent Hayes Inauguration was not, as we
supposed, the result of an accident-re
sponsibility thrown suddenly on a crowd
of irresolute counsellors-buto of fixed and
consistent policy.
Whenever We know anything to have
the actnal approval of Governor Nichols
we accept it heartily without inquiry,
so great is our confidence, in common
with everybody else, in his singular
combination of courage and caution.
In like manner, if he were absent from the
State go that our Lieutenant Governor
could take the wheel, we suppose that mo-
body would attribute to timidity any line
of policy adopted by him He is the same
man now as when he faced De Trobriand
at the head of the Democratic House.
What we lacked confidence in, and al
ways shall lack confidence in when it is q
question of prompt and decisive action, waa
the supposed dominance of a crowd of Cab
bling politiciane.'

ABUSES OF THE CLERGY IN ITALY The
Capuchins at Sorrento" says the London
Tablet, shave been perpetrating offences which
have led to their expulsion from the Convent
| of st. Aguello di Sorrento. In this con vent, 90
we'll known to tourists, 6welt about twelve
Cspuchin friars, nearly all of them natives OF
the district. Six of them had permission from
the Government to dwell in that convent, and
the rest were suffered to re- enter their convent
by the local municipal authorities, beoauee
they were of use in attending the hospital and
in other work of utility. But these Capuchins
were too eminet for zeal and learning. They
were too charitable, for they supported two
poor men in their convent, and gave food ut
the gates to about eighty poor persons, besides
giving assistance to other INDECENT persons in
their homes. One of these Cspuchins " as very
old and had the fame of Saint. Two others
had literary reputation and were about to
found sn institute of art in Sorrento and to set
up printing press. They had already estab-
lished circulating library. The venerable old
friar, aged seventy-six years. was told he might
remSin to servo the Church if he consented to
take of the habit of his order and dress as a
secular. The two literary friars were turned
out, bag and baggage, and warned not to re-
main within the Commune. The rest of the
CaPuchins were dispersed. The liberal mupi-
cPolity of Sorrento could not, it seems, tolerate
the presence within the limits of their inris-
diction OF convent of Friars, who did good,
we're famed for sauctity and charity, and
actually promoted learning. The circulating
library and the printing press and the art
insu ute were crimes too audaeiors for mar

Care OF House Plants.

SCOT, handful placed in bag and
stirred in a pail of water, is an excellent
mixture for stimulating strong feedinq
house plants, as azalias carnations
chrysanthemums, fuschiGs, pelargoni,
ums, roses, etc, giving them yigor, and
assisting in destroying parasites. This
may be alternated by an occasional ap.
plication Of weak mixture of the
drlppings of barn yard manure. So
also, an occasional application of am.
monla, teaspooniul TO pail of water.
will be beneficial. This with plenty of
sun, as the autumn progresses and ex.
posure TO the air in mild weather will
place them in COED condition for Tho
winter season. The chief difficulty 10
be guarded against, as we have before
stated, is to secure as moist an atmos.
phere rs possible-sometimes difficult
matter in winter. For this reason.
plants with glossy or hard leaves. in
contradistinction to soft, or hairy leaved
plants, are preferable for house culture,
unless a comparatively moist atmos,
phere can be given. Much, however,
may be done by occasionally inverting
the pots containing the plants, over the
hand and washing in either clear Water
DIT weak suds. In case of the latter,
hey should be subsequently rinsed in
)ure water.

and widely known ~ 1t ~, too many people
