MOLLY MAGUIRES.
The Executions at POttsviIIe.

An immense crowd Of people was
in Pottsyille Thursday to witness the
execution of the murderers. At 1870
the condemned men were led to the
scaffold. They were apparently com
posed and each had something to say
to the crowd. These men seem to
have been humans of very vague
sense of moral responsibility. After
their spiritual advisers had left the
scaffold and the rope had been adj
justcd, the men fell at 1854 and in a
moment the bodies began swinging
Kelly, Doyle and Campbell died easy.
Donahue drew himself up and strug
gled for two minutes. Doyle's heart
ceased to beat in twelve minutes,
Campbell's in fourteen minutes, Don
ahue's in six minutes, and Kelly's in
seven and one half minutes. The
bodies were cut down in twenty five
minutes From beginning to end
there was not a mishap. The town
is very quiet. All the bodies were
taken on the 2:l0 train.

COLUMBIAN.


The Columbian Literary Society
gave it's anniversary entertainment
last night in the New University
Chapel. VIM. G. Brown, Jr., of
Kingwood, of the class Of TT presid-
ed. On his right, as token ofcomi-
ty. was seated the Parthenon Presi-
dent. Jas. S. Stewart, Of Ohio. The
platform was neatly and richly car
peted. The music was credit to the
orchestra. The programme was en-
tered on by the opening prayer OF
Alumnus VIM. Howell, Of New York
Union Theological Seminary. Mr.
Howell was an old Columbian and
graduated in IA.
The first performer was A. q. Day
ton. salutatorian, who made speech
of welcome.
He was followed by Alonzo Wood
ford. 1t will be remembered that this
gentlemen got some Of the prize mon
ey on last Fridays contest He made
a good effort and was warmly approx
ed by the audience.
JIM. Lee then delivered the Grafton
on the Esprit of Liberalism" We
shall not trust ourselves to become
the gentleman's eulogist.
The essayists were Spencer Wade,
of Morgantown, and Alonzo Waters,
of Monongalia county.
The first gently dealt entertainingly
and instructively on the subject of
''Misapplied Energies" His per
formance abounded in aphorisms,
whose condensed truth was keenly APP
preciated He spoke against sundry
ancient but false maxims, and sue
ceeded in demonstrating his cultivat-
ed common sense.
Mr. Waters subject was wanted,
from which he spoke ably of the ur-
gent and increasing demand in all de-
partments of life, for well cultured
and honest men. He concluded with
a forcible delivery of that popular
fragment beginning, ''The world wants
men"
Mr.. ii. J. Snively, of Grafton, was
next introduced and began graceful
address on behalf of the graduating
Columbians. He had not proceeded
far when it became evident that he had
to contend not only with the natural
difficulties of the speech making art,
but also with the war waged by the
contending elements. The windows
of the hall made disturbance not
unlike the st,idoq rudeatum of Viz
gil's storm. Mr.. Shively, with char
acteristic self-presence, stopped his
speech till President Thompson re
stored quiet and then proceeded in
manner worthy of the occasion.
His farewell words were few and fit
ting. The whole address was cred
it to the speaker and an honor to the
society.
The audience then had the pleas
ure of listening to the Hon. {. Nj.
Babb, of Grant county. Mr. Babb
has now been four years out in that
time has had share of active life
it's experience, honor and teachings.
His address was suggested by these
circumstances. He began by an al
fusion to the response of the Delphic
Oracle-"Kno thyself" The prob
lem of life is to secure a resultant of
the forces of head, heart and
hand. Tendency is to run
to extremes, He then spoke of the
leveling effect of life, drew true pic
ture of it's treatment and training,
and of it's judgement of men. The
address was entertaining and receiv-
ed with applause.
Mr.. Babb was prevented from
reading all of discourse by the ex-
tinguishment of some of the lamps
by storm.
Long may this society live and
flourish.

Ga s.. Patrck's Day Bishop Gibbons lee
tured in horticultural Hall, Philadelphia, to
immense audience The Philadelphia
Standard says:
The subject of the lecture was Civil and
Religious Liberty" and in the course of it, the
Bishop gave many instances to prove that the
Catholic Church was the only Church strong &
enough to stand between the sovereign and
the people aud cay to the former, "Thus far
shalt thou go and no farther" He instanced
the example CT st Ambrose who repealed the
Emperor Theodosius from the Church on &C.
count of his massacre of the people of Thessa.
loDica, of the Catholic Barons of England and
Arco bishop Lsngton who succeeded in wrest-
ing from King John Magma Charta at Runny-
mede, charter which gave many liberties to
England, wbich have Inherited in America,
although En8land refused many of them to
Ireland. He gave many examples of the
forbearauc3 which the Catholic Chnrch had
impressed upon too zealons kings who wished
to force their subjects 10 become Catholics
Among these examples were the Saxon King
Ethelbert, converted by st. Augustine, of
England, who wished TO compel his So bjects
10 become Catholics, but was dissuaded from
il by the holy Apostle of their country /; and
also that of the Fourth Council of Toledo in
Spain, which forbade Jews to be forcibly con-
veTted.
The Bishop closed by a reference to the
great vafue of the gift of free will which
makes man equal to the angels and which
carries with it great responsibility. 1t is
of the objects of the teachings of the
Church to enable man to use his free will and
not abuse it, At the present time the Church
is really fighting the battle of freedom against
tyranny. In Germany, in Italy, and in Switz-
erlADd laws have been passed which interfere
with and Cypress the Church and which would
not find q single advocate in America. And
because the German Bishops resist :hese laws
and will not allow the Emperor TO be supreme
in everything they are imprisoned and fined.
TIE Bishop closed his lecture with a warm
tribute to free American institutions under
which the Church was allowed to pursue its
divine work unimpeded.

Y
New Orleans March "a, 1877
To the People of the State OF Lousiana:
The State Government being now complete
in all its branches, and in the fall performance
of all its functions, it becomes the duty of the
people of Louisiana to promptly discharge
their pecu mary obligations to it, in order that
ali just claims against it may be punctually
met. To the ordinary motives, inducing the
payment of taxes, is now added that of evinc
ing, by such payment, confidence in the
strength and stability of that Government I,
and just appreciation of the fact that tits
the one chosen by the people.
The evidence already received on this point
is entirely satisfactory, and l COL fdently ex-
pect o continuance of the same patriotic action
throughout the State The people of Louisiana
may rest confidently assured that the Govern
ment of which they have chosen me the Exc
cutive head, will not be imperiied or impaired
by any compromise of their rights.
The Government being now a fixed fact, l
desire to publicly acknoW ledge the services
of, and to thank, behalf of the people of
Louisiana, the patriotic men who, on the 9Th
day of January, 1S77, responded to the call OF
the civil authorities of this State, to prevent
illegal attempts to oust them from their legal
possession of the court buildings, and who
have since quietly, thoroughly, and most
patiently performed their duties there as
citizens. desire to say that their great SER
vices are folly appreciated, and that in due
feeling of the people on this subject.

The only Constitutional Amen dment ted
at the late election in the glorious, free, Puri-
tanical State of New Hampshire, was the one
providing for the blotting out of the folio wing
enactments which have disgraced the Consti-
tuition for % years:
"Eve'y member of the House of Represen ia
tives shall be of the Pro testsDE religion
aud shall cease to represent such town, parish,
or place immediately on his ceasiBg to be
qualified as aforesaid" mo person
shall be capable of being elected q Senator who
is not of the Protestant religion" mo
person sball be eligible to this office (Gover.
nor) unless he shall be of the Protestant rel-
gion."
The New York Herald says:
The people of New Hampshire, by their ad-
verse vote, having only proved that they are
behind the civilization Of the age. Let them
picture the Indignation that would fire the
New Hampshire heart IL Louisiana should
adopt State Consultation stripping Metho-
dIsts or CoDgregationslists of the elective
franchise on the Governor aud Legislature,
and shutting ont all bnt Catholics from the
public school, and then they will be able TO
form an idea of the sentiment which their own
stupid intolerance excites among the people of
less benighted States.
