No. State Courts must be totally inde-

Constitutional Convention. If the States
desire the Union to be permanent under
all circumstances let them say 30 definitely
let them pronounce the Union to be perma-

mount to surrender Of the Federal sys-

right to withdraw from the Union.
The contrary theory involves the final
extinction of State autonomy and the ccr-
tain fusion of a "Union" irto unit. It
will be an abandonment of the Federal
idea. 1t will be a surrender of the Amer
ican eystem, which ia State sovereignty by

We doubt exceedingly that any one State
would consent to such an amendment.
Each may be willing to deny the right of
secession to the others but no one would
like to eacrifce for itself the only remedy

Letter from the Vicar General.

NEW ORLEANS, August Il, 1873.
Editor Morning Star:
Allow me to express my mind about the be-
quest made by the late Patrick Irwin to the
Most Rev. Archbishop and the Catholic Orphan
Asylums of this city.
In your paper of last Sunday read that the
said bequest was practically revoked by Mr..
Irwin few days before his death when he
received payment of the amount in Diocesan
bonds
This construction is based upon an error of
fact. Mr.. Patrick Irwin having advanced
money to assist in building st. John the
Baptist's Church or repairing the same, had a
just claim against the Diocese, the owner of
this church, and to secure tie payment of that
debt, as soon it was practicable, Diocesan
bonds were given to him. But the giving Of
these bon ds was not payment, for before the
debt be considered paid, the bonds must bs
paid. No one will Gees der his claim paid be-
cause his de btor has given him notes secured
by endorsement OF mortgage. Therefore the
debt of the Diocese for the building and re-
pairing of st. John the Baptist's Church being
still in existence, both the Catholic Orphan
Asylums and tie Archbishop are entitled to
the bequest made by the deceased.
Respectfully yours, MnLEr, VIC,
Administrator Of Finance.

1t would be we'll for honest Protestants to
reflect on these things. To remember that, all
over the world, their sects are allied with inf.
dels against the church founded by Christ.
Christ cannot be on the side of the infidels with
whom the Prote est ants are allied; and, conse-
quently, Protestauts are to be numbered with
the enemies of Christ, who has said that even
the lnkewsrm are against Him "Tbey who are
not with me are against me;" how therefore
can such people be saved
The education of Protestants nowadays
is such as to make them join with the Inidels
against the ancient and greatest Churoh-the
Church which claims no founder but Christ,
and which no one else ever claimed the credit
of founding
After reflscting on these point, it is impossi.
BILE to see how an honest and intelligent Pro-
testsnt can fail to perceive that he is enrolled
under the banner of Anti-Christ and that the
sooner he leaves it tie better for his immortal
soul.
"The Lord of that servant shall come in g
day when he looketh not for him, and in an
hour that he is not aware of. And shall cut
him asander and appoint him his portion with
the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and

Death Of Father Lamy.
Administrator of Finance.

Last Sunday morning, at 10 O'Clock, Father
Lamy, c. H., aged thirty. fur years, died at
the Hotel Dieu, of yellow fever. He was in
TERED the same evening, at o'clock, in ST.
Vinoent's Cemetery, Sixth District. The de-
ceased WAS born in Buffalo, N. p, in 1914 and
entered the Lazarist Novitiate in Perry
County, Missouri, at the age of fourteen
years. His application and love of tt1dy were
such that after a few years he was sent to the
Mother House in Paris where he was ordained
about eleven years ago. Leaving France he
returned to America and taught in several Of
the colleges under the direction of his Order.
Father Lamy came to New Orleans last De-
oember, not for the purpose of spending a va
cation term, as one of our contemporaries has
stated, but to assist the priests of St. Joseph's
Church, where he was domiciliatsd at the time
Of his death.
