the name and style of THE ROMAN CATHO-

that are both material and moral.
AS a corporation legally instituted, 1t enjoys
all the rights and privileges Of a civil body. 1t

and mortgage its properties. whether movable
or immovable under the prescription Of its
charter. At their meeting Of January II, 1873,
the Council Of said Society unanimously deter

the rate OF per cent. single loan of s25OOO0

OBJECT OF THE LOAN.

During the crisis which followed the war Of
secession, and which weighed 80 heavily on the

which they have determined to liquidate., In
the past year a better state OF affairs doomed up

The conventional rate. in Louisiana is too
high for s. religious society the revenues Of
which though entirely secure. are nevertheless
limited, for, such a society cannot look for
eventual profits ir contingent undertakings or

mission OF bensvolence and charity.
Therefore 1t is not with view Of creating q

plan positively approved by his Holiness Plus

SUMMARY.

From what precedes 1t follows
That the loan is negotiated with the sole
object of liauidating all former debts.
That 1t represents the liabilities Of the So
ciety Of the Roman Catholic Church" which are
thereby unified and consolidated with re-
duced interest.
That it is secured By special mortgage en-
properties worth five times as much as the
cient to guarantee both the payment Of interest
and the redemption Of the capital.
Consequently the Mortgage Bonds Of the Dio-
reese Of New Orleans constitute first class in
vestment, with moral and material securities
but seldom offered to capitalists.

The very brief report which the cable
gives US of King Humbert's opening
speech from the throne confirms the
promise of his inaugural address. He
declares his purpose to consolidate and
render fruitful the great work of Ital-
ian unity to which its glorious founder
devoted his life; 8" promises to submit to
the Legislature various bills for electoral,
financial and administrative reforms !;
and declares his faith in the rights of
humanity and his purpose to maintain
civil institutions unimpaired. at the
same time .'reconciling respect for re-
ligion with determined defense of
State laws and the principles of civiliza-
ton. The state of parliamentary parties
is, however, somewhat chaotic, and it is
not impossible that the Chamber of Dep
uties will be dissolved and new gen.
eral election will be speedily held.

GOOD ADVICE TO yERmoNTERs.

At meeting of the Vermont State
Board of Agriculture held at Montpelier
a few days ago, Rev. c. A. Huntington
of Olympia. Washington Territory, read
an interesting paper upon the subject of
emigration, in which the farmers of the
Green Mountain State were urged not
to seek the Improvement of their condi-
ton by removing to the Western States
and territories. Mr.. Huntington said
he was native of Vermont, but he had
lived upon the Western frontiers for
more than thirty years, and his observa-
tion and experience had brought him to
the conclusion that a Vermont farmer,
with a good living, a well appointed
home, with stock, tools and buildings,
would make fatal mistake by attempt
ing to improve his condition by pulling
up stakes and beginning again in new
country. The trouble with farming in
New England. in his opinion, was not
due so much to the poverty of the land
as the want of skill on the part of the
land owners, who were as yet in the al
phabet of soil improvement. He thought
that if the hills of Vermont, now re-
garded SO contemptuously by those who
cultivate them, could he given into the
hands of Scotch Highlauders or the
yeomanry of England. Ireland and Ger
many, and subjected to the modes of Gull
tivation there practiced, the crops could
be doubled. But such results were at
tainable only by work united with skill,
and such work and skill would be far
more remunerative than the opening and
improvement of a new farm in new
country, where educational and religious
institutions have yet to be established
together with all the other concomitants
of well-organized society, such as il
the older States have been the result o.
more than a hundred years of develop
ment and growth.

The Times, commenting on the South
ern claims, says: "The mail contractors
are small fry compared with the interests
which make up the grand total of $780,
000,000,-the amount of claims en-
braced in schemes now known, and in
part before Congress, for enriching the
South at the expense of the North.
They are brought up in detail, and the
submission of Northern Democrats to
Southern Democrats, as evinced in their
joint support of the bill reported from
the Committee on Postofices and Post
Roads, is the price of party unity.
The Souterners dictate and the North
erners yield, precisely as they were wont
to do in the days before the war. The
only hope of the Democracy is in the
power of solid South, and the South
understands too we'll its value to the
party to be over-modest in the presenta
ton of its terms. Here and there a
Northern Democrat appears who refuses
to bow the knee to Baal, but the excep.
tons are so rare that they only increase
the significance of that subserviency tt
Southern demands which is characters
tic of Democracy at the North"

THE CONFESSION AND EXECU-
TION OF JOSEPH LA PAGE.

hung in Concord, on Friday last. The
details of his horrid crimes are fresh in

shocked at the inhuman murders men.
toned. Up to within few hours of his
execution, the murderer maintained a
stolid indifference, and refused to make
any confession but on the night proceed
ing the day of his execution, he confess
ed to deputy warden Pillsbury that he
was the murderer of the two persons
mentioned. His confession was tolerably
explicit in regard to both murders,
though he speaks English poorly. He
was attended by two Catholic priests,
who ministered to his spiritual welfare.
At the appointed hour he was conducted
to the scafoId, and with no visible emo
ton endured the necessary preparations
for the execution. There was nothing re-
markable in regard to the hanging. The

THE FINANCIAL PUZZLE.

Our financial Solomons are at their
wits end, for every days experience is
demonstrating their assumed wisdom to
be practical folly. Contrary to all their
sage predictions. the financial recover
which distinguished week before last
was even more marked week ago last
Saturday, when our bonds were quoted
still higher in London, and gold sunk to
a premium of one per cent, and the N.
Y. banks reported a specie reserve of
thirty-seven million dollars, an amount
which was only approached in January,
1870. and has never been exceeded, we
believe, since the suspension. The New
York EUening Post remarks that the
reason gold goes down is that 1t is SO
abundant. Of course it is. That is the
principal reason which has brought it
down from LOG IL, when Mr.. Hayes
was inaugurated, to l0l to day. But
why is gold abundant =? Simply because
we have for three years turned the scale
of foreign trade in our favor. The future
of gold is mainly question of foreign
trade, and the only menace to constant
supply of gold has been the depreciation
of our credit, and the return of our OWL
bonds instead of gold in pay for our ex
ports. The plain question is, therefore
will those bonds continue to return
There Is not much probability of it al
the prices which they have already
reached in London, and with the New
York market so strong. When they are
higher on this side than in London, the
British holder thinks twice before sell
ing. and, the second time, he conclude
not to SELL Watchman.

THENEw HAMPsHIRE ELECTION.

The result of the State election in n.
H., last Tuesday, was the reelection of
Gov. Prescott, the Republican candidate,
by majority of about 1900. The Re-
publicans also carry the executive coun-
Gil and both branches of the legislature.
Last year. Prescott's plurality was 4034,
and his majority over all 1857. In con-
sideration of all the influences which
have been at work in the State the tri-
umph for the Republicans this year is
more complete and satisfactory than
could have been anticipated. A desper-
ate effort was made by VIM. E. Chand-
Ter, backed by other men of his class, to
create disaffection among the Republi-
cans Of the State toward Mr.. Hayes and
his Administration. No enthusiasm was
manifested during the campaign by ell
ther party, and on the part of the Dem
ocrats especially the canvass was in the
nature of ''still hunt "a sort of fight
which, in New Hampshire. usually au-
gurs no good to the Republicans. Now
that the election is over and the victory
is won for the Republicans, the oppo-
nents of Mr.. Hayes in that party are at
great pains to assert that the result is
not to be distorted" into an endorse
ment of the President, but that it SIM
ply means that New Hampshire is Re-
publican despite the work of the Adj
ministration. The utter unreasonable
ness of such claim is shown by the fact
that, had the Democrats carried the
State. the overturn would have been
loudly heralded as denunciation Of
Mr.. Hayes and his policy.
