In an editorial on the Maine canvas, the
Boston Daily Advertiser says: There is
TO be to much speaking, on the republican
side ut least, and vast amount of per-
sonal work. 1t is here chiefly that the re-
suits Of the secret operations of the green
hackers last year can be most effectually
assailed. The confident predictions of the
greenback emissaries have been absolute
ly unfulfhed. Resumption has come, it
has been successful. it has ruined nobody.
On the contrary, in all the centres of bust
ness; even in Maine itself, "A revival of
trade has already taken place. The peo-
pie Of Maine are no fools, and they are
not to be deluded again. The republicans
have such an opportunity as no other par
ty had TO turn into ridicule the folly of
men who took up with an absurdity lust
on the brilliant demonstration that it was
An absurdity, and to denounce the wicked
ness or ignorance of leaders who persist
in urging the adoption of system of f.
nance which events prove to be as wrong
aud hurtful as the present system is sound
and helpful. On this line the republicans
have great advantage, and it will be their
own fault If they do not press it,"

National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1879-03-05

Large interests in Cincinnati have been seri-
ously alarmed by the developments. 1t Is
said that parties have already appealed TO
the courts for redress and not with the most
hattering prospects of success in that direc-
ton. 1t is matter of serious doubt If all
the Catholic property in Cincinnati, if put
at auction, would satisfy the indebtedness
of this eminent prelate, even if it could be
availcd for that purpose; and then there is
very serious stumbling block in that di-
rection, which has been placed there by an
old decision of the Supreme Court of the
United States 10 the effect that, MS
the obligations were not contracted
property of the church cannot be held for
their liquidation. OF course, as litigation
arises in the courts, the applicability of
this decision will be fully tested. The
equities of the case would seem TO justify
the sale of the church property to answer
this indebtedness, for the reason that the
large sums received from his parishioners
were invested in the building of churches.
Out of these means the Archbishop has
erected many church cdifces and institu-
tions of learning and charity
II is stated that when the Archbishop
went TO Cincinnati some forty-six years
ago, the city contained but one Catholic
church, and the diocese embraced the whole
State of Ohio. At the present time the
State is divided into three dioceses, with
nearly five hundred churches and about
four hundred priests PURCELL has
been the head and front of this develop
ment. The larger part of the money
expended in doing this work was given out
right for the purpose. But not content
with the liberal contributions which poured
into his Golfers as gratuities, the Arch
bishop set himself up rs a savings bank
for the reception of the funds of his peo-
pie. He promised to pay per cent. in-
terest, aud then turned round and invested
these trust funds in non-interest paying en-
terprises.
1t is on this rock that the Archbishop
has been stranded. No one assumes to al
lege that he has been guilty Of any inten-
tional wrong. He acted under n confidence
that voluntary contributions would float
him through the emergency; but they failed
to meet his expectations, and when his de-
positors sought their money his treasury
could not respond. His fatal mistake was
that he attempted to run a savings bank in
connection with his clerical duties without
business experience or capacity that would
take him safely through 1t was not him.
self, but the church, that reaped the benefit
of his mistakes, and hence the church is in
duty and honor bound to meet these obi.
CATIONS, as it has already evinced disposi'
tion to do. 1t is highly commendable in
that religious denomination that there is M
talk or thought of reputation, though il
will take forbcnrance and time TO wipe ou
SO large an indebtedness.

THE CLOSE or THE SESSION.

The Forty-Fifth Congress closed an igno-
BILE career in very appropriate and consist
ent manner at twelve o'clock noon yester-
day, by dying as it had lived a monument
of disloyalty, dishonesty, injustice, and
wrong. 1t finds no parallel in history when
we consider its personnel, it's policies, its
purposes, its abilities and its efforts. It
has been controlled throughout mischiev-
GUS existence of two years by the sworn en-
enlies of the Republic, the haters of the
Union, the despsers of the Constitution
and the laws, the contemners of the rights
of citizenship that have been solemnly
guaranteed to every American, be he rich
or Door, white or black, native or foreign
born, the marplots aud plunderers of the
country, these are those who have con-
trolled the Congress that has just descended
to the tomb, and passes into history only to
be despised and contemned.
This Congress entered upon its activities
and powers on the 18th Of October, 1877,
and continued with but slight intermission
until the 10Th of June, 1878. For nearly
eight months it was at daliance with
time and idleness, neglecting the
public business, but pursuing n
relentless and fruitless system of
investigations and prosecutions of Republi-
can ofilcials-indulging little care for the
public good, but an unlimited hate for the
Government and its political friends aud
supporters-uu it wore out the session
and brought il within few days Of its close
without convicting solitary Republican OF
fraudulent or wrong doing, or accomplishing
any purpose except that of wasting time and
involving the Government in heavy expense
