WoRDs OF THE HOLY FATHER.

In a recent address to the Cardinals,
Pope Leo said:
The age ru which we live, an age truly
which 10 most sad, can have no other re-
lease from its evils except by returning to
Christ and reconciling itself to His Church.
For the spirit of pride aud self reliance
which at present agitates society and
throws all orders into confusion can find no
more effectusl remedy than in humble
submission and docile obedience to Chrls-
tianity. The unbridled lust for earthly
goods and eDjoyments, which is the fruit
full fount Of corruption, has no Tore salu-
tary remedy than the spirit of temperance,
abnegation and self. sacrifice which Ia one
of the primary duties OF the followers of
Christ.
1t ia only this purely Christian spirit
which, when transfused into human sOcie-
ty, can enable mankind to enjoy that true
peace, that peace, to wit, which Was an
nounced by the angels on the birth of
Christ, and Of which you, Signor Cardinal,
lately gave us the augury. For true
peace is founded ~pon order, and 1t is i'm
possible to find IL in man when disordered
and when his reason is not fully subject to
God, and his senses made fully subject to
his reason. 1t is impossible to hnd that
peace in society il the authority and the
laws which govern it are not altogether in
conformity with the imm table and eter-
nal principles of truth and justice, of
which the Church is the custodian and
guardian.
knowing that God has made the nations
for health, and that Divine Wisdom fire.
quently reaches its most important ends by
paths secret and mysterious, and apparent
Iy contradictory, we doubt not but that
even now by the benehcent virtue of the
Church the earth will be again pacihed
and renewed, and that the extreme ruin to
which it is almost reduced will help to
render it's salvation more wonderful and
Tho triumph of the Church more glorious.

DECLINE OF NEW ENGLAND.

Gov. Talbot, in his address to the Lsgis-
lature of Massachusetts,, says;
"Iu spite OF legislative effort, and the AppAr-
ent concern of the people, RGriculture. proper
ly so called, seems to be declining in the COM
monweaith. The young people are attracted
elsewh here. Farms arc deserted. The populs-
tion and valuation of moSt of the farming
towns are steadily decreasing. 1t seems in
ored that, with lAud and buildings 30 cheap,
q market so near, the conveniences OF life,
with churches, schools. and physicians, so &C.
cessible, and prices of produce comparatively
30 high, any New England farmer should ex-
change his position for tho privations, the Sc
we're toll. and numerous risks of q frontier life;
bot the facts are undenSble."
The Governor suggests an earnest and
thorough investigation OF the subject by
committee, and trusts that means will be
found by which the appropriation for the
Board of Agriculture will he made avail
able to check the process IF depletion.
The result of the investigation will be
looked for with intereet by all who study
the welfare of New Engard. Whatever
the cause, 1t ia sure that ~" dover Of the
youth of that region desert It as soon as
they are abe to look out for themselves,
and that only the rich and tb" less enter
prising children Of toll remain.
