reading. Once a month we go into b
consistory chapel and publicly accuse

reading. Once n moDth We ~ ibIc eAaS
consistory chapel and publicly accuse
ourselves of all vanities and imperfec-
tons. Fresh meat is never allowed
except to the sick. One meal and a
collation. is allowed in Winter; TWO
meals IN Summer. Our food is bread,
milk and vegetables. All the monks
wear the cowl and habit while in the
house,, The old monk of 20 concluded
by saying: 1--WE live by our OWE in
d~ustry." Their stalls in the chapel
are made so that they must either
stand or kneel. Reciting the office
they all lower their heads at the names
of the saints of their order and kiss the
ground at the names of the Father, Son
or Holy Ghost. Their Summer and
Winter garments are of the same ma
terial. The cowl or head covering IS
attached to the habit; n leather belt
binds the tunic to the body.
Priests. brothers and Abbot all
work in the fields. There is an awful
solemnity about their discipline. See
ing them march, two by two, from the
chapel, | felt Il chill IL through my
body. The long line of silent specters
recalled to mind so many skeletons
marching to the grave. Not a sound
was made by their feet ms they passed
under the hyssop of the Abbot. The
Abbot had a iewelcd ring which no one
was allowed TO kiss. Instead of gold
or silver he held in his hand an old
wooden cruzier. lie had Il very precious
relic for n pectoral cross. l could
white a better cros with my penknife.
The string from which it was suspended
did not cost more than five cents hfty
years ago. His habit was patched but
very clean. The Lord Abbot slept in
the dormitory with the monks. Over
his bed was n little font and a picture
of Lourdes. Though he could not
speak in the dormitory, still lie was
enthusiastic about the luxury of an old
blanket which he hung before his bed
to keep out the breeze of the Winter.
| have often seen a sailors hammock
and railroad mans bunk, but my Lord
Abbot's pallet was less comfortable.
He had no chair, table or looking-glass.
| almost imagined the Pope intended to
mock this old man in giving him a
wooden cross and c%ro2ier, paper inter,
and something like Il shoe-string for a
chain. But soon that thought was
checked when l was told this man came
from a noble family and freely bartered
the pleasures and wealth of this world
for the lone and silent cloister. There
were no casters or wine bottles on his
table. instead of silver plate and
sparkling goblets, there stood before
him an earthen jug, a rusty knife and
wooden plate. This man was once a
fondled child of fortune. lie is to-day
one of the leading scholars of the Roman
Church in America, yet when priests
and Bishops and men of the world are
enjoying the comforts of profound slum-
Der, the poor old Abbot is standing in
his wooden stall leading the choir as
they sing hymns and canticles to
God and King.

THE TRAPPIST MONKS.
A Visit TO Their Monastery in Iowa. and
the Manner OF Their Lifc-The Lord
Abbot in His Humility once a Fondied
Child of Fortune.

The st. Louis Times says: Twelve
miles from the city of Dubuque stands
a lonely monastery the inmate of which
belong to the austere order of st. Ber-
nard. They are called Trappe, after
the great Monastery of La Trappist, in
France. 1t Is the severest order in the
world. Perpetual silence is strictly en-
Joined. Each brother has some particu-
lar employment. Farmers for miles
around have their work done at the
monastery. 1t is optional for them to
give recompense. A brother told me
they have two monks whose trade and
industry have gained for the house not
less than SAC, ZOO.
Thirty years ago sixteen monks left
the city of Waterford, Ireland. They
sailed for America, but on their way
cholera set in. Six of them died on the
way from New Orleans to st. Louis.
Their bones are now quietly reposing on
the banks of the Mississippi. The re-
manning ten chose a wild and desolate
prairie for their future home near Du-
buque. Their first Winter was intensely
severe. The snow was so deep that
wagons passed over fences without diff
liculty. They purchased 1000 acres
at 25 cents per acre. That same land
is now worth SO an acre, and the
monastery, when completed, will cost
$4,000.
In regard to their rules. N of the
monks gave the following report: The
community tsixty in number) must all
arise at 2 "a. m. Seven hours allotted
to meditation, prayer, etc. We pray
kneelfmg or standing. No brother is
allowed to sit down while praying or

The Administration is firm in its determine
ton to restrain Langston and not to permit
his devastating eloquence to be turned loose
ON the patriots of Ohio during the pending
campaign. 1t strikes us, in view of Cornell
and some other rebellious civil service char
acters we wot of, that the intimation to Lang
ston that stamping Ohio was incompatible
with his duties as Minister to Hayti," was ex-
ceptionally rigorous. Langston might have
detained from every stump in the North
without injury to the civil service; but the
secret of the matter is that the imam and
brother" is not popular in that section just
now, and it Is time he should understand as
much, and read correctly the import of this
rigid construction with reference to the ''rep-
resentative of the race" The people of the
North thoroughly understand the "bloody
shirt" business, and they are profoundly sick
of it, and with this new-found conviction has
come hostility to the negro that partakes of
the violence of reaction. The only friend
the negro has left is the Southern man, and
the sooner he realizes this the better for him.
The New Orleans daily Democrat. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1877-1880, 1877-09-12

We do not see any cause for the reported
trouble and resentment Of the President with
reference to the indictments against Patter-
son and the other South Carolina thieves, or
the charges of bad faith he is said to have
made against Hampton. Their cases are, by
the indictments, transferred from party
caucus to q court Of justice, where the laws
OF evidence shall maintain and due weight
be given to all testimony, pro and con. There
is no doubt upon one subject, and that is that
from 1865 to 1876 South Carolina was most
shamelessly plundered, and that her legisla-
lures were but nests Of thieves, and it is very
sure that some Of these men know all about
it, 1t Is not very hard on them, il their
share in it can be shown under the difficult
and formal rules of evidence, and we should
think that their excessively .'stalwart" Re
publicanism, which causes them to denounce
the Southern policy as treason, would not
serve to arouse the Incorporate wrath of Mr..

FLUN-KEY.

The New York Tribune has Washington
dispatch which reports an Ex-Confederate
General who was brave officer and saw
much SERVICE" as passing the following criti-
cism upon those who have criticized Keys
establishment in New England:
t'The editors who have assailed Key, as a
class, never attacked anything from 1861 to
1865 which could strike back. They will not
be able now to do much. certainly not make
Key unpopular"
This 'ex-Confederate general" whoever he
was, only writes himself down an ass in
making such sweeping statement as this
To begin with, Key never had any popularity
that ever was heard of outside of Tennessee,
and when he got his appointment the South
ern people had to be told who he was and
where he came from, as well as the people of
Maine. The only Southern paper we have
seen that has not passed the one popular
criticism upon Mr.. Key is the Coauier-.Jo,guol
and we have never heard that the editor Of
that paper ever occupied position, or enter
famed sentiment towards the Confederacv
which would justify a contrast in the fight
ing line as against the many who have chosen
to think differently from him.
All that is thought of Key in the South, is
gust this-he took position of exceeding de-
hcacy, one which even Joe Johnston, with all
his reputation, could not feel himself equal
to, and he has shown himself unequal to its
responsibi, Titles, and instead of representing
his people and their sentiment, as most ami
able weaknesses would have done, he has
proven himself funkey-and that is all of it,
We know of no one who bears him any i'll will
Tor it.
