MARRIAGES

that are unlawful, if not absolutely IL
valid. The severest ecclesiastical penal
", that of excommuniCgtion, does not
prevent these scandalous unions. CRtho-
hes cannot be ignorant, that by the
very act OF contracting or attempting to
contract marriage before Protestant
minister, they are cut of from the COM
munion OF the Church. No episcopal
sentence is necessary. To the saCrilegious
act itself Is affixed this penalty, which
deprives the guilty of sll ii ght to a PSF
tlcipation in the Sscraments and benefits
Of the Church whilst living, and to Cath
Ole burial when dead. In word, they
are no longer recognized b. the Church
as her children, and have no claim upon
the graces which she dispcrses or the
privileges which she coniers.
Such sscrllegious unions are some
times whenever certain implements
exist, not only unlawful or grIevously
sinful, but they are, moreover, IN the
ewes of the Church, absolutely nu!l aud
void-no marriages at all.
If Catholics will avail themselves OF
the reluctant permission of the Church
to marry non. Catholics, they "a bound,
before making aEy engagement, TO secure
The consent OF the non-CathOl!c party to
the conditions prescribed by the Church.
When they show an obstinate deter
mutation to marry even those who 10
fuse compliance with these requirements,
they are sacrificing their conscience to
their passions.
But Whist motive can lnuuCe Catho-
lie who has any conscience, to incur ex-
communication by marrying contrary to
the lave of the CEurch. Ii there is any
annulhng impediment which cannot DC

BALLS AND DANCES.

We should be wanting IN our pastoral
solicitude for the flock entrusted TO our
care, did we not svsil ourselves Of this
letter to denounce certain dangerous
anusements, by which numbers OF both
sexes are led into sin. We refer TO public
balls and indecent dances. All the
bishops of the United States, assembled IN
Plenary Council IN the year 1866, issued
a pastoral letter TO their tocks, IN which
thew warned them against those fashion,
able dances, which, as st present carried
on. are revolving 10 every feeling OF de.
licacy and propriety, and are trsught
with the creates. dangers TO morals
But in spite OF this solemn warning,
some Catholics, presuming TO be better
Judges OF morality than the prei.tes OF
the Church, continue TO indulge IN these
forbidden amusements, and 10 encourage
others in their rebellion against ecc!eSiAs-
,icsl authority. We appeal to sli loysl
children of the Church to resis. this spirit

bers of tho full committee to be present and nearly
all were there. Besides these. Mr. Havemeyer,
sugar refner at New-York, was also present. Mr.
Bartol first made his test by weight and the Polar
lscope DR.. Lugo followed with his by weight,
sacrcmeter and Polariscope.
As the Poariscope is the instrument by which the
value of seventy-fvc per cent of the sugars con-
sumed in this country by reners and others are sold
to first hands in the market, description OF grading
sugars by its use will be timely.
II should be understood that one OF these instTu-
ments seemed to be as exact as the other, to-day,
because the results obtained from both agreed as
well in tests of high colored sugar which tested as
low as eghty-seven as in those Of low color
Demerara sugar testing as high as nnety-two.
Both Of them are recognized improvements upon the
regular Polariscope the basis of which invention
dates back thirty years. MIR. Havemeyer said he
was willing to accept either instrument If that sys
was adopted because both were correct
specified or uniform duty for all classes of
sacchanne matter based .upon pure sugar saccha-
rose having molecular rotatory.power of plus 13-S
degrees with specific or uniform rebate of duty
for each percentage OF impurity except water, sand,
etc., is dcsderatum. For instance, sample of
raw sugar is presented to determine what duty one
has to pay thereon. Surprising then the duty to be
cents per pound of 100 units of cane sugar
lsaccbarose with rebate of per cent of duty for
operation would be performed as follows:
An unknown weight of raw sugar is dissolved In
an unknown quantity of water, at temperature OF
between 60 degrees and 20 degrees Fahrenheit.
Then the density percentage of tho ccaTne so
luton is taken with hyGrometeT ialTeady IN use
for the puIp0se, and found to be- say 53 per cent.
A gwen weight Of the solution Is taken and the
percentage OF ystallizable pure cane sugar de,
termined by means of saccharometer tan optical
instrument already in usel, and found TO
bc. say ~ per cent. Now, II % gave
AZ 100 will give S545. this latter being the cocni-
cent of cane sugar contained III the sample and the
difference between 100 and s5.45 1I.5jl the soluble
impurities or, in other words, the glucose salts of
sugar IN organic matter acids, etc. Consequently,
So 70 units of sugar at cents per 100 are equal to

which leaves a remainder 2.92l cents duty 10 be
paid on each pound of the actual weight entered.
ToasceTtain the valuation of a sample OF raw sugar
according TO the method above alluded To requires
very little time. Although the Saccharomcter Is
theoretically very complicated, il is very simple III
its practical application, so that the principle of SUI
gar analysis can easily be applied mechanically by
means IL that Instrument. The present testing is
principally done by gls and bs that the prepara-
ton for the tests superintendent by scientific expert
the same as sugar sampng is done by uneducatcd
samplers and the tests of dutable value are made by
the appraisers.
