print in regard to the political situation
when the New York Tabla-a leading
Catholic paper-published an editorial ap.
peal to Irish Catholics the other day 10
consider the propriety Of ceasing to con.
centrate and waste their votes on the Dem
ocratic party. This appeal Of this recog-
nized church paper was founded in part
upon the very same reasons advanced by
"An Irish Catholic Voter" and we may
say that the gentleman who sent the Tab-
let', article to this office for publication Is a
Catholic, aud not layman in the faith
either. This shows that there Is nothing
unnatural or incredible in the ecommunica-
ton OF "An Irish Catholic Voter" and
hence no grounds for the criticism Of his
proiessed status.
Itis useless to disguise or deny the fact
that there Is a disposition among numbers
OF Irish Catholics in this community, and
for that matter in many other communi-
ties throughout the country, to abate that
unquestioning zeal with which they have
clung to the Democratic party and voted
tor its nominees. We think with the New
York Tabld that this is good sign-good
for the persons who are thus awaking from
this thick and thin psrtisanship-because
their concentration in one direction for so
long time has had the effect OF concen-
trating large amount Of opposing religi-
Gus sentiment throughout the country in
a directly opposite direction, and subject
ing Catholics to the suspicion OF attempt
ing to use the Democratic party as an
ally for political ends.
The long standing feeling between
Professionalism and Catholicism will always
crop out when one side or the other takes
a wholesale position with q political organ
ization, such as the Irish Catholics in this
country have taken on the side Of the
Democracy. Therefore, as the New York
Tabld asked, is 1t not good sign in the
interest Of better and more liberal feel
ing all round, and in the interest Of bet.
ter political status in particular, that the
Irish Catholics Of this country should not
be one sided in their politics. We main
toin that it is better for Irish Catholics as
citizens and religionists that they should
cease to be partisan followers Of the Dem
ocratic party. The Republican party is
fairly entitled to the affilistion OF all free.
dom loving Irishmen, be their religion

The resumption OF specie payments
one Of the fruits OF the Republican party
has brought the return Of abundant pros

questions, the restoration Of sound money,
the reduction OF the public debt and Of the

ability and courage of the Republican party
TO deal with such financial problems as

paper currency is now as good as gold,

function for purposes of change. The
principles which should govern the rsla:

There is the gravest reason for appre.
hension that the exhorbitant claims upon
the public treasury, by no means
limited, to hundreds OF millions, already
covered by the bills introduced in
Congress within the past four years
would be successfully urged il the Demo.
cratic party should SUI csed in supr neIt
ing It's present control Of national Iegisla.
ton by electing the Executive. There
Is great danger in enuusting the con-
troll OF the whole law making power Of the
Government to party which has, in al
most every Southern State, repudiated OBJ
legations quite as sacred as those to which
the faith oithe nation now stands pledged.
do not doubt that success will be with
the Republican party, and thatitstriumph
will assume just, economical and
patriotic administration. l am respect
fully your obedient servant,

"DEAR stR-Several applications have
lately been made 10 this office by general
officers OF State militia, to be regularly
furnished copies OF the general orders, oil
the War Department. ! am inclined to
accede to such requests, but desire hrst TO
communicate with you on the subject.
While desirous to do all that lies in my
power TO aid In bringing up the uniformed
militia OF the several States TO the highest
degree OF efficiency, knowledge OF mill
tary details, ETC., am equally anxious to
avoid even the semblance OF interference,
the more so that some OF our orders may
vary from the regulations OF the State
code. Will you, therefore, do me the
favor 10 state, first, whether You deem 1t
advantageous to the several commands in
your State 10 secure copies OF our orders !
and, second, II so, what distribution to
general commands would you adviser
~ trust that you will appreciate the mo-
tiyes which dictate this letter. The de.
fensiye power OF this country is formed, as
you well know, OF three component parts
the regular army, the militia and the
volunteers. The first two are permanent
organizations; the last is only called on In
great emergencies. know OF no reason
why the friendly, official relations which
exist between the officers OF the army and
OF ths State militia should net be sedu-
lously cultivated, and hope it is unnec-
essary for me to add that anything ] can
properly do to foster or increase these re-
iAtious will afford me sincere pleasure.

POPULAR EDUCATION.

The value of popular education can
hardly be over.stated. Although its inter.
ests must of necessity be chiefly conided
to voluntary effort and individual action
Of several States, they should be encour-
aged, so far as the Constitution permits,
by the cooperation Of the Ma
tional Government. The interests
OF the whols country demand that the
advantages Of our common school system
should be brought within the reach OF
every citizen, and that no revenues OF the
Nation or States should be devoted to
the support Of scctarian schools. Such
changes should be made in the present
tariff and system OF taxation as will re-
lieye any overburdened industry or class,
and enable our manufacturers and arti.
sans to compete successfully with those of
other lAndg.

The Celebration.

The committee on finance on the
celebration Of The Fourth of July, on
Tuesday, visited all those who bad
contributed $40 and upwards on the
first subscription list towards working
up the celebration, and every person
said he was willing the amount set
down by him previously should
remain on the new list. This, il il
said, guarantees the committee at
least 81 800 while the strong proba-
bilities are that the original sum OF
81 800 will be collected without much
difficulty. The committee on pro-
cessi0n have obtained the promises
OF IHenty-ieven business men that
they will enter the procession and
make display OF their several busi-
nesses. General Smith, OF Fort
