A Catholic Priest ON He'll,

Rev Or. Weninger, a Catholic priest of
Cincinnati, closes an elaborate article on the
Catholic doctrine about hell, with the follow
ing sensible words: 1.-The other part of the
question, in regard to the kind of punishment
in hell, is equally out of place, because rea-
son, by itself, never can answer this question
and revelation was not given to satisfy our
curiosity. No explicit definition In this re-
gard has ever been given by the church. 1t
perfectly sufices to perceive by faith and rea-
son that the punishment of men, who having
died In the state of mortal sin and been con-
demned in hell, will affect body and soul as
they have sinned with both, and that their
punishment will be eternal. Any punish
ment that never ends must be for men the
same dreadful warning to try by all means
to avoid it, whether it be by fire
or otherwise. But for those who firmly
believe all that God has revealed to men,
proposed to them by the legitimate teaching
authority, and who live accordingly, they are
on the way of salvation, and for them it is of
very little interest what kind OF punishment
God inficts on sinners in hell. They rather
direct their thought to the joys that await
them in heaven. But those who willfully err,
or who do not live as they believe, proceeding
IN the way of damnation, they will soon
enough know by experience what eternal
punishment in hell means. Yes, these Inger-
sollians, and all other blasphemers and SCOT
fers at religion, if they refuse 10 listen to
reason and revelation, will each have we are
afraid, shortly to exclaim, Yes, this is hell,
and | am therer Too late then to ridicule
hell"

THE WAR ON NORTHERN DEMO
Gratis.

If the southern people should separate
themselves from the northern Democrats, the
Radicals would have no difficulty in retain
ing power and in perpetuating their persecu-
tions and robberies. The chronic haters of
Democracy know this, and hence their new
war upon northern Democrats. But they
will never succeed in alternating the southern
people from their northern friends and allies
In an able article, the Washington Herald
shows why the southern people cling to the
northern Democrats. 1t says:
The south looked to the Democracy after
the war because the Democracy turned pity
ingly to her fallen state. The Democracy
rendered to the south the old-time shibboleths
of faith. under which in the olden time both
had marched to victory. The Republican
party offered nothing but threats of continued
lll-will and schemes of revolutionary, social,
and political change in the south. The latter
embraced the banner of Democracy-the en-
blem of constitutional privilege, of communi
ty independence, of home rule, In preference
to the banner of Repubhcanism, so-called-
the symbol of the hIgh-government preten-
sions and aspirations of the ancient Federal
ism OF John Adams, the symbol, too, of hate,
and OF punitive measures against everything
southern IN name, character, or interest.
And so the divided unity of the south and
the democracy was recemented, to continue
while each Is true TO the other. 1t was a re-
union based upon common views OF consti-
tutiona power and governmental duty, a
revival of old sympathies and traditions. 1t
is perpetual alliance, from which there is
not even possible divorce, unless the Democ-
racy shall, when in power, discriminate
against their allies, or unless the south, too
eager for power and wealth, shall offer her
self to the highest bidder; IN the latter event
it will make but little difference, as affecting
her own fate, what sordid huckster shall be
the possessor of her prostitution. But neither
condition Is reasonable, or, indeed, possible.
Above all things, the south values her high
prestige for devotion to principle, to the vows
OF friendship, and to the sanctity of obhga-
tons. The Democracy of the north appre-
ciates its obligations to the south, and will re-
spect them. Among not the least sources of
those obligations are the high personnel, the
ability, learning and patriotism which the
south contributes to the leadership of the De-
mocracy.
These utterances will have more weight
with the southern Democrats than the insane
rawlings of the Radical allies who are striving
to estrange the northern and southern Dem
ocrats, with the sole view of restoring the

commissioners to locate the termini at Mem

strongly hold the opinion that that was the
proper place for it, when the road itself was
not permitted to come nearer than within
three degrees of Memphis. This is fraud
Memphis will not countenance, a deception

There are radicals, socialists and COM

We are opposed to universal suffrage, be-

Of the highest compliments that can be

The young ladies' performed their part'
with such decided ease and modest as'

missed all trembling anxiety about thu

Another noticeable feature was the
expression. The music was not OF the

soul In 1t. The performers showed
high appreciation OF the sentiment oi
