The following address of Right Rev. Arch
bishop Purcell to the Catholics of Cincin-
natl is being distributed among the various
Catholic congregations:
81 know not what language to use to
make stronger appeal to our Catholic con-
gregations than l have done, and which l
do to-day to urge and advise them to help
the good brethren of st. Ludwig's congrega-
ton out of its present financial embarrass
ment. A generous and united effort will
have, it is hoped, the desired effect, and
Cincinnati will not have the grief and
shame of seeing Catholic church sold for
debt, or Catholic people left unpaid the
money they lent for its acquisition and
maintenance. J. b. PURCELL,

in Chicago. After sharing her ,hus-

Ida swamps, she moved with him to
Baton Rouge; then to New Orleans, and
then to Fort Moultrie, Charleston har-
Dor. After six months rest there, the
Mexican war broke out, and her husband,
at this time Colonel of the Fourth In
fantry, was ordered to Mexico. While
he was there, Mrs. Whistler visited a
married daughter, Mrs. Bloodgood, in
Albany. The regiment being ordered
to the lakes at the close of the Mexican
war, she journeyed to Detroit, where
the Colonel established his headquarters;
and where they remained until 1851,

Gen. U. S. Grant, subaltern officer at
the time, acted as Col. Whistlers
Quartermaster, and was highly esteemed
both by his superior officer and Mrs.
Whistler. In 1852 the Fourth Infantry
was ordered to California, but Col
Whistler was, on account of his age,
given light duty at Detroit. A few years
afterward the now aged couple moved
to Newport, KY, where they remained
until the death of the gallant old Colonel,
who, on the 4th of December, 1868,
closed military career of sixty-three
years duration, which began with the
Indian fighting around old Fort Dear

wars in which the country had since

she visited her daughter, Mrs. Col. r.
A. Mckenzie, at Chicago, and repeated
the visit in 1876. The last visit was
made to Louisville in 1877.
During her life she associated with

derful memory of events combined with
great volubility making her both a

Enterprise" Of the New York Papers.

self by the publication of long obitua-
ry notices, as q matter of news, but
when man like George p Gordon is
taken away, and the most influential
men connected with the printing trade
in this city assembled to do honor to
his memory, the 81 enterprise cannot
afford to record that fact. On the
evening of the day of the trade meeting
three of the leading morning papers
were furnished with reports of the pro-
ceedings and copies of the resolution.
The Tribune bluntly refused an inser-
ton without payment, and the others
quietly consigned the matter to the
waste-basket. Mr.. Gordon was only
one of the most useful of modern in
ventors, and the meeting only represent
ed one of the most important branches
of trade in the city, so leading journal
istic astuteness could see nothing of
public Importance in those facts. If
it had been Train, Johannes or the
Woodruff woman now, what scram-
bling there would have been for the
minutest details! Enterpriser' indeed.

Wild Men.

In the Island of Rio there are wild men
who live in trees, and have no language
but cries; and in Sumatra, resident
of Palembang said, there are men who
live in the forests, with whom not only
the Europeans, but the Malays, can
have no intercourse. He himself had
never seen one. Yet, strange to say,
they have petty traffic with the outer
world, yet not through the medium of
speech. They live in the woods and
live by the chase. They hunt tigers,
not with the gun, but with arrows,
which they blow out of tube with such
force, and which are SO keen of point,
and touched with such deadly poison,
that a wound is almost Immediately
fatal.
These tiger skins or elephant tusks
they bring for barter-not for sale-for
they never sell anything, for money is
about the most useless thing they can
have. They cannot eat it or drink it or
wear it. But as they have wants they
exchange; yet they themselves are never
seen. They bring what they have to
the edge of the forest, and leave it there,
and the Malays come and place what
they have to dispose of and retire.
If the offer is satisfactory, when they
return again they find what they brought
gone, and take what is left and depart.
If not, they add a few tritles more to
tempt the eyes of these wild men of the
woods, and so at last the exchange is
effected, yet all the while the sellers
keep themselves invisible. ..

Hours Of Labor in the Good Old Times.

The "Statute of Laborers' in En-

hours of work and meals. 1t provided
that the hours of labor from March to
September should be from five o'clock

ing; that one hour should be allowed to

extra half hour at that meal being al
lowed only for sleeping, from the mid

This statute fixed the rate of wages. II
any unemployed person refused to serve
at these wages he might be imprisoned
till he found sureties to serve according
to the statute.

THE STRAY LAMB.

One bright and sunny day,
Upon grassy hill. ll'...H.. r. .. .-
The little lambs were all at play,
Too happy to keep still
They ran and frisked about
Within their shepherd view.
Loving their merry games, no doubt,
As much as children do.
But by and by lamb
willful little trot-
Said to itself: How tired am
Of keeping in one spot;
want some better fun; .#
Fresh places want to see;
So presently away I'll run,
And they may look for me-" t..
Without a thought of care
He wandered where he would,
And fancied that the change of air
Already did him good.
This grass is finer far
Than what | left behind;
And oh; how pink these daisies are
Exactly to my mind"
Thus charmed with all around.
The moments quickly fed
Until, to his dismay. he found
The sun had gone to bed
The air grew damp and chill,
The little brides slept.
And over every field and hill
The gloomy shadows crept.
Hungry and tired and cold,
OF unknown ills afraid,
He thought upon his happy fold,
And wished he had not strayed.
Fast poured the heavy rain,
The wind swept roughly by,
And as he sank upon the plain
He felt he soon must die.
just then cheering voice
Fell on his listless ear,
And OH howldid that lamb rejoice
To think relief was nearl
His own dear shepherd came
And casped him in his arms,
Not uttering one harsh word of blame.
But soothing his alarms.
My little lamb he cried,
In soft. reproachful tone,
Why did you leave your shepherds side
And wander forth alone?n
And as he gently bore
The wanderer to his rest,
The lamb resolved it never more
Would think its own way best.

A Richmond Episode.

4 True Story, if it neUer Happened.
A little episode happened to one Of
our well known Legislators who is
fonder Of q practical joke than he is
of law making. 1t seems that the
legislator was paying his devotions
to Richmond belle who resided in
boarding house, and as there was only
one parlor he found it hard work 10
get that privacy which young lovers
desire for their billing, and was al-
ways interrupted Ey curious old
gentleman who, aS soon as the pair
had settled themselves down to busi-
ness, would come in and ensconce
himself in an arm chair, and while
apparently oblivious of all sarround-
ings, would take keen note of all that
was going on. The legislator stood
it as long as it was his nature to
stand anything and then his patience
gave out, and the uext evening when
the same thing was repeated, be whis-
pered his plan to his fair companion,
and then let out into such Above scene
as would throw Lawrence Barrett In
the shade, and make even Booth look
to his laurels, An elopcment was
urged, as the fashion in Richmond re-
quires, and the fair lady-a good
actress herself. by the way-anSwer-
ed, "Yes." Then the gentleman,
carried away, became too ardent and
the lady had to leave.
During all this time the lone figure
in the chair never stirred. Had he
heard ?-the legislator could rot tell
be did not know. The sequel showed
that the venerable old rooster wasn't
unmindful Of the scene, neither was
he dead or asleep, for the next morn
ing the irate parent of the young lady,
accompanied by two grown sons,
came storming down to the Capitol,
called out the law-maker and asked
him his intentions The law-maker
said his intentions were strictly COR
rect. The parent then sternly de-
manded that the elopement should
be furthermore, that he
shouldn't visit his houee any more
if he did there would be the - to-
day, and the General Assembly would

After some talking, however, SO ru-
