OUR coU>rRy's ORIGIN.

Our fathers came hithor from land to which they were never to return. IIither they had brought, and here they were to fix their hopes, their attachments and their objects. some natural tears they shed as they left the pleasant ahodeS ot their fath- CTS. and some emotions they suppressed when the white cliffs of their native coun- try grew dim in their sight.
 A new existence awaited them here; ana when they saw these shores, rough, cold, barbarous and barren, as they then were, they bcheld their country. Before they reached the shore they had established the elements of social system, and at a much earlier period had settled their forms of re ligious worship. Al the moment of their landing, therefore, they possessed inStitu- tions of government and institutions of re- ligion. The morning that beamed on the first night of their rcpo>c, saw the pilgrims already established in their country. There were political institutions, and civil liberty, and religious worship. Poetry ha. faucicd nothing in the wandcriugs of heroes so dis tinct and characteristic. Here was man, indeed, unprotected and unprovidcd for on the shore of rude and fearful wilderness; !; but il was polite. intelligent and educated man. Everything was civilized but the physical world Institutions containing in substance all that ages had done for human government were established Tn a forest. Cultivated mind was to act cn unculu'ated nature: and more than all, government and country were to commence with the first foundations laid under the divine light of the Christian religion. Happy auspices of happy futurity ! Who would wish that his countrys existence had otherwise be, gun ! Who would desire the power of going back to the ages ot fable Who would wish for other emblazoning Of his couutry'S hcraldry, or other ornaments of her genealogy, than to he able to say that her first existence was the intelligence; her first principle, the truth of divine religion.

The Mexican damsels declared that they were on their own heath and ordered the intruder away. She refused to obey the commands from the Sonora side of the line, and the consequence was that she was knocked down, given a black eye, rolled around in the dust, covered with it, and up on her escape from the grasp of the dmlce!

WATEERsoN TO THE INDIANA EDITORS
A SHARP AND DESERVED LECTURE.

Gentlemen-I regret that my engagements
VIII not permit me to attend the Convention
of 1Vdiana editois to W hich you invite NE. 1t
wouid afford me hardly iess pleasure to visit
the beautiful city of Madison than TO meet the
body of professional neighbors and friends to
whom am indebted for 80 many acts of kind
ness and courtesy. Conscious of my lack of
power to speak adequately of the journalistic
calling, whose shortcomings have for "a long
tlme Chiefly interested me, / should neverthe.
less be glad to urge its numerous and gross
abuses upon such of my comrades as might
care to listen to me it's coarse and reckless
personalism it's senseless jabber of spurious
wit; it's general want of tiuthfuIness and re-
sponsibillty. 1t is easy to bandy eoithets
to squtb and hb; SO hard to investigate pa
tientIy, and condeDse in five lines of pith five
hours OF labor. do not pretend that journal
lists are worse than other men, but, being more
conspicuous, they shou Id be more ciroumspeot,
more thouGhtfnl, more dutiful. The habit Of
disjotuted thinking is productive of @ crop Of
irresponsible writing which lowers the tone
Sbridges the influence and impairs the useful
ness of the press, 60 that the current newspaper
seems TO me to be equally narrow and frag-
meutary, wanting not certain vigor indeed,
but elevated and generous prompting. The
journalism of the period is thus almost desti-
tute of seff-respect, and until iS gains it's lost
moral nature-at the expense perhaps of is
vfvacity--its tendency must be downward. 1
beg your pardon for speaking 80 bluntly; but
observsnt members of the profession to which
all of us are bound for life can hardly fail to
share with me q sense of shame in the confess
sion along with o spirit of hope that the future
may have better things in store for MS. Such
conversations as that to which you invite me,
and to which this note is addressed, are wisely
ordered, and will surely, in the eud, do much
to advance reforms in journalism and ablish
sound principles of editorial conduct. Thank
ing you, gentlemen, for your remembrance of
me, and sgain regrettiDg my inability to be

SKETCH OF THE LATE ARCHBISHOP
BAYLEY.

The Most Rev. James Roosevelt Bayley
was born in New York, August %, 1914
His grandfather, DR.. Richard Bay ley, was
one of the most eminent American physi-
cinns OF the last century, professor euccess-
lively of anatomy and surgery in Columbia
College, and the first health officer of New
York. The doctor's daughter, Mother Sc
ton. WAS the founder of the Sisterhood OF
OF Charity in this country. The future
Prelate was educated at Washington (uow
Trinity College, Hartford, where he wss
for short time tutor; studied theology
with the Rev. DR.. Jarvis, Of Middletown,
took orders in the Protestant Episcopal
CbErcb, and snccessively served parishes
in Harlem and in Hsgerstown, nd. Then
he was received into the Catholic Church,
prepared for the priesthood. at ST. Suipice
in Paris, and on March Cad, 1S42, was or
dained in New York by the late Archbishop
(then Bishop) Hughes. Appointed professor
of belles lettres in St. johns College, Ford
ham, he became President of that ipsti-
tntioD, in 1S45. The following year DR..
Hughes made him his private secretary-a
post which he held until 1858. On October 80
of that year be was conaecrated first Bishop
of Newark, N. j. For nineteen years he
ruled his diocese with an ability and sue.
cess of which Seton Hall College and the
many institutions of learning, hospitals,
convents, and churches called into exist
ence by him are lasting monuments. On
July 80, 1872, the Pope raised him to the
Arch bishopric OF Baltimore. OF late years
bis health has been very feeble, and quite
recently the Pope gave him a coadj juator-
Bishop Gibbons-who will spcceed him in
the Archbiehopric A few years after he
assnmed the crozier of the diocese of Bal
timore, Archbishop Bay ley WAS seized by
ma(ady that prostrated him and defed the
skill of the most eminent ply siciaus. Last
wicter it assumed SO alarming form that
he determined seek medical advice in Eu-
rope. In March he celebrated his last asa
n st. Patrick's Cathedral, and set out for
europe. He went to Vichy, for the waters
here. The physicians that he secured ex-
lausted their knowledge, but in vain, and
hen intimsted that if the Arch bishop de- |
ired TO die in his own country, he should
eturn at once. The sea voyage rallied |
lin, and for weeks after his arrival--on |
he 20eh of August-.he appeared to i'm
rove steadily bat the hope was illusive, |
nd when the resciion set in his strength |
Aited rapidly.
