The Pope aftcr the Secret Orders


THE Philadelphia Record says; Pope
Leo XIII has addressed a letter to the
Archbishop Of Baltimore, directing his
Grace to admonish the other Bishops Of
North America "to use all care and
diligence to study and inform them
selves on the arts and schemes O. soci-
cites condemned by the Church especi-
ally of this so-caled Order American
tnion, in order that they may the
more readily guard the faithful from
their wiles, and, ,at the same time, adopt
snch means as will protect the Church
from any damage which might result
to her from the plots of these impious
and goddess men, The letter was
by a recent address of the
Order of the American Union, which
was replete with deadly hatred to the
Catholic religion.

family, will be taken to them if left at

FAMILY MONUNENTS.


We notice that the Confederate mon.
ument which is TO be unveiled next
Thursday, at Augusta, Ga, is the most
pretentious work Of art in the South,
except the equestrian statue of Wash
ington at Richmond. 1t is II feet
high, exclusive Of the foundation, and
u feet square at the base. The base
is OF Stone mountain granite. The
statue of a Confederate soldier stands
on the top Of the monument, and sta
tues Of General r. y Lee, General
Stonewall Jackson, General Thomas r.
Il. Cobb and General W. IL. Walker
are placed on the pedestals about 20
feet above the base. The funds for he
work were raised by the Ladies' Nc.
mortal Association OF Georgia. We dc.
test these offensive fhmily moBornu,
dums that are being erected In both
sections of the country, as memorials
of our ianatacism and folly in former
times, We hope to live long enough
to see every one of them torn down
and instead Of advertising our bad con.
duct toward each other Us members Of
the same family from 1861 to 1868, it
would be more polite to bury and hide
it than 10 erect stone spires looking
heavenward. In social affairs, it would
be just as proper Tor belligerent parents
to drive a stake in the yard OF their
for every quarrel they happen
TO have, for the purpose Of having their
children and nsighbors to inquire what
they represent.

AN EXPERTS BLUNDER. of the

got out a cartoon representing Senator
Dill with uplifted hand taking the
Known Nothing oath. Quay and Hoyt
know how this is themselves, for they
were both members of the order, and
Hoyt its candidate for District Attor.
ney of Luzerno county. But Quay
makes q rather lndicrous blunder in his
picture. Dill at the time was Just nine.
teen years of age, Of slight build, and
much below the average heighth Of
manhood, but Recorder Quay repre-.
seDts him a mature man, slightly bald,
with frosted whiskers, which are un-
common for boys of nineteen. While
Quay was torturing Dill into a Know.
Nothing, he never dreamed of making
4 survey of Hoyt's political premises,
until after he found our nominee was
not old enough to become a Know.
Nothing, and then only did be discover
that bis friend Hoyt was old enough,
and sworn into full membership and
defeated for District Attorney.

A JUDICIAL Freak .--One Of the
Philadelphia Judges-Briggs-on We'd
nesday last, soundly berated a jury fol
bringing in verdict against,he weight
OF evidence. lie characterized their
finding as "infamous," and such an one
as no "twelve men but themselves could
be had to render" If Judge Briggs
never erred in the construction of law,
then he might expect to find perfection
in jury passing upon the facts in 0
case, but judges and juries are alike
fallible. lie was 80 exasperated that
he discharged the twelve offending
jurors from further attendance upon
the court, alleging that their usefulness
was now ended. We confess that iur.
ors some times render some very
strange verdicts, but then they only act
like Judges after oil. Judge Briggs
has not been on the Bench very long,
but he ia the proprietor of more judi.
oial freaks than any other Judge we

liz Ksows.-Col John W. Forney,
formerly of the Philadelphia Press and
known to every adult politician in the
United States, comedies that Demo
cratic victory cannot be averted in 1880
The Colonel has spent the past year
in Europe, where he has been close
observer Of things, at home and abroad,
and knowing just how the political tide
Is drifting he has been honest enough
to publicly declare this fact. Col. For
ney is an old sinner, and has arrived at
an age when he feels better after telling
the truth, than in uttering falsebood
Hence, the Radical party has lost one
of its champions and the State has
gained a patriot. Provided: be does

TRUTH THAT SrISGs.-The men who
perpetrated the Presidential larceny
have been greatly annoyed and tor.
mented ever since they committed that
crime, and have sought every oppor.
tunlty to malign and slandcr Mr.. Tiden,
and bis immediate party friends. The
last effort was that Of the editors Of the
New YORK Tribune, who conceived the
idea of getting npa lot Of forged cypher
kilograms, and apply their own key for
the purpose OF damaging the rcputa.
tion OF Mr.. Tilden and his friends. The
forgery in question was not as sue.
cesstnl as the Presidential theft, and
from what is transpiring the ior, ,erers
are as unhappy as the thieves, partic-
ularly rendered so by the stiDging let.
ter of Mr.. Tilden, This letter will be
found on our fourth page this week,
and we hope it will be perused by all
our readers.
