quite new to us. But to my regret we

There is popular little work by Mac
Greggor, entitled Rob Roy on the Jordan,
from which make an extract, and so
close my account of this memorable visit.
Jordan is the sacred stream not only of
the Jew who has Moses and the Prophets :
of the Christian who treasures the memo
ries of his Masters life on earth of the
cast-out Ishmaelite who has dipped his
wandering bloody foot in this river since
the days of Hagar, but of the Moslem
faithful also, who deeply reverence the
Jordan. No other rivers name is known
SO long ago and far away as this, which
calls up host of past memories from the
Mohammedan on the plains of India.
from the latest Christian settler in the
Rocky Mountains of America, and from
the Jew in every part of the globe. Nor
is it only of the past that the name of
Jordan tells, for in the more thoughtful
hours of not few, they hear it whisper
ing to them strange shadowy truths of
that future, happier land that lies over
the stream of death. " M. D. H.

Ronish Miracles.

We copy from the leading editorial of
TIE Catholic Staa1dard, the Rev. Geo. D.
Wolff formerly Reformed German
clergyman editor
We refer to the liquefactions of the
blood of st. Januarius at Naples and the
miracles at Lourdes.
"The first of these is both an ancient
and modern miracle From time i'm
memorial it has been repeated several
times year, in the presence of thousands
OF persons, Catholic and non-Catholic,
mobiles and peasants, intelligent and un-
intelligent. The fact cannot be denied
yet infdels never refer to it without
sheer, expressing contemptuous disbelief.
They never attempt seriously to exam
inc the miraculous occurrence; never at
tempt to discover its nature never at
tempt to disprove' it. They simply
either ridicule or deny it, or else they
make assertions of trickery and fraud,
which they fail to support with any evil
dence whatever"
We now turn, for information on this
subject, to "Appleton's Cyolopedia," the
articles in which on Catholic subjects
have been revised by high Catholic au-
thority.
" AS soon as the head is brought near
the phials the blood is seen to become
liquid, to bubble, rise in the bottles, and
fall again the alleged miracle lasting
sometimes eight days. The nature
of this phenomenon has been mUestiqated
by scientific men Of various creeds and
nations, and several hypothesis have
been suggested to account for it. Roman
Catholics regard it as a miracle; but it
has never received the sanction of the
Church, such as is granted to miracles in
the solemn processes of qualification and
canonization."
Here, from as good Catholic authority
as the Standard, we learn that Protes-
tants hare investigated the phenomenon,
80 far, of course, as they could by stand
ing among the spectators and, further,
that the Catholic Church has not inves-
tigated it enough to be willing to indorse

The most of the pieces were fresh and entertaining, and the audience were not bored, as in previous years, by a recital from the pages of medieval history. practice which seems to be on the increase, that of giving bouquets, is to be deprecated.

The revival meetings at the Methodist church. conducted by Rev. MT. Noble, are becoming very interesting. Wednesday nights meeting was largely attended. Mrs. Noble arrived from Ocean Grove, N. J., and her modest and telling address was well re- ceived and evidently enjoyed. Three or four of the members of the St. John street M. E. church of the city were also present and ad- ded greatly to the interest of the occasion by their earnest prayers and exhortations. The extra services will continue during the present and perhaps the coming week.
