THE Catholic World for July contains an
able article, "Ireland to the Future" by T.
f. Galwey. This writer recognizes the in
vincible geographical and political Difficult
ties in the way of absolute independence.
Mr.. Galwey believes that the best solution
of the Irish difficulty would be in home rule,
through an international federation that
would give the Irish people practical control
of their own affairs, while giving them the
advantage of the British power and material
advantages, which they have done SO much

DiscOurtesY to Eugenie.
London TeIeQrdDh.


Marseilles Of late has gone a good deal
out of its way to acquire an unenviable
nOtOriety by endeavoring to despoil an
august and supremacy unfortunate lady
of her property, and offering her much
gratuitous insult to boot. Through its
Mayor, M. Brochier, the city brought an
action against the Empress Eugene to
recover possession of a house belonging
TO her, but at one time the property of
the municipality The proceedings in
question were instituted in a highly
offensive manner, which is all the more
discreditable to M. BrOchier because that
person was an eager candidate for i'm
perial favor during the late Emperor's
reign. On one occasion, indeed, his
fervent loyalty prompted him to give it
expression in an adulatory ode, which he
forwarded to the Tuileries as a cOnclu-
sive proof of his enthusiastic devotion to
the Emperor and Empress. This, how
ever, is the same man who, in his plead
iDgs before the Marseilles Tribunal, has
designated her Imperial Majesty as "Eu-
genie Teba, alias Montijo, widow Ma
pOleOn," au impertinence which, it ap-
pears, brought him great increment
of popularity in his native city.
We now regret to hear that Lyons has
been endeavoring to rival Marseilles
in displays of bad taste and ruffianly
behavior. Two or three days ago an in
firm English lady of fortune, travelling
with numerous suite of servants, was
mistaken for the Empress of Lyons and
grossly insulted by a crowd of roughs as
she was leaving the hotel in which she
had passed the previous night. Really
it would seem as though republican in
situations had deteriorated the polite
habits for which Frenchmen have been
so long celebrated, and rendered them
incapable of behaving with even COM
mon courtesy to women.

An Historical Mansion for Sale.
Neao York World


Colonel Roger Morris house, one of
the oldest residences on Manhattan
Island, with all the land appertaining to
it, is now, by virtue of judgment of the
Supreme Court, on the market for sale.
The mansion is standing to-day just as
it stood in the old days when George
Washington once lived in it. Great men
whose names are familiar to the world in
the history of the republic have eaten in
its dining room and slept in its capacious
chambers, and in its drawing room a
hundred Indians have had pow-wow
with the big chief of the pale faces. II
has been hotel, and then, confiscated bv
the government, it passed into the hands
of John Jacob AstOr. Then a wealthy
French merchant turned it into a private
residence, into which he poured ship
load of furniture and paintings, while
he beautified the grounds by planting
young trees and making flower gardens.
This house, known to the present genera
ton as the Jumel mansion, stands on the
summit of Harlem Heights, commanding
delightful views, New York city lying at
the foot OF the hill, the Harlem river
flowing beside it, the sound not far
away, and Brooklyn and the Long
Island towns in the distance. The house
inside is packed with interesting relics
of the past. Connected with this
historic house are such names as
Colonel Roger Morris, aid to Gen
eral Braddock; George Washington,
Generals Greene, Putnam, Mercer and
others who viewed their troops from its
portico. General Knyphaufen, the He's
sian commander, also used it as his
headquarters until November %, 1888.
Afterwards DIR. Isaac Ledyard occupied
it, and last of all Stephen Jumel and his
family By Madame Jumel's marriage
with Aaron Burr his name is also asso-
ciated with it. When George Washing
ton visited New York in 1890, after his
election to the Presidency, he again Wis
tied the old house in company with the
Vice President, the Secretaries of State,
Treasury and War, and dined there at a
time when the mansion was in the occu-
patton of a common farmer.

The Death Cry in COnnemara.
Catholic World.

There was no sound of merriment. not
even a voice from the house. All was
still, as if in expectation, when there
came from it a long, piercing, mournful
wall lu-lu-lu. 1t rose to a high tremu-
lous cry, filling the misty air with an in
describable thrill, and sinking into low
moan. 1t was thrice repeated, and then
followed by rapid recitation in Gaelic
in a substantial key. The cry seemed
the last excess of anguish and lamenta-
ton, and, although | knew that in one
sense it was artificial it overcame me
with an actual shudder 1t was the keen.
After the recitative had ceased way
was made for us into the room where
the corpse lay. 1t was large though low,
and around the bare, rough walls can
dies were stuck up with Jumps of CLAY.
It's only ornaments were a religious pic
ture and a faded Autograph of the Lib
orator" In the centre couple of stools
supported a coffin of implanted deal. No
glass protected the white, wan features
of the corpse from the tobacco cloud that
filled the air, eddying around the candles
and under the cobwebs of the thatch.
The principal mOurners sat at
the side of the coffin, and con-
sisted of the son, a stout farmer of
fifty. and his wife, and half dozen
children in youth and girlhood. The
room was filled, except in the space i'm
mediately at the head of the coffin, with
all the neighbors for miles around, seated
on benches stools and turf kishes. or on
the uneven floor. An impressive
quietude and solemnity reigned upon
the countenances of all. The faces of
the assemblage were characteristic of the
locality. They were sharper in outline
and wilder in expression than their con.
geners of the South. Their features
were more regular, with darker com
plexions and hair, and less of the
Milesian outline. Some of them had
the dark, flashing eve and the
regular oval of the Spanish face.
and there was the carriage and
turn of the head of the jewellers of the
mountain. They were poorly clad, and
few of the women had the comfortable
long blue cloaks of the Southern farmers
wives, or the cap with its frill of lace
around the shining hair. Some of the
men were ragged beyond description.
and the suggGUn, or nay rope, around
the waist was all that kept their garments
IN any degree OF consistency. Several of
the men, and women also, were barefoot
ed, although the night, earth and air
were both damp and chill.
The keener sat on a low stool at the
head of the coffin. When she had
finished her recitative, as we entered.
she had drawn the hood of her cloak
over her face, and slight rocking of her
body gave the only sign of life. 1t was
as if she were meditating under the ex-
cess of grief. After a silent interval of
some minutes she threw back the hood
of her cloak, revealing the pale face of a
woman about forty, with fixity of look
as of one in trance. Without lifting
her eyes from the face of the corpse she
repeated her tremulous cry and con
tinued with a rapid recitative, apparently
addressed to the dead rather than the au
dience, and then subsidized again into
silence.

How BEAcoNsFrELD's NOVELS SELL

How BEACONsFIELD' NOVELS SELL
Some interesting statistics concerning
the sale of Lord Beaconsfeld's novels are
given IN an article in the new number of
the Edinburgh Re0Seao. 1t appears that
the sale of the Dovels is hundred times
as large as that of the Life of Lord
George Bentinck," which really is one of
the most picturesque of romances, and
is not only admirably written, but con-
tains some most discriminating criticisms.
l fancy that no cheap edition of the work
has ever been published. "Vivian Grey"
is by far the most popular of the novels,
and don't wonder at it, for, although it
is the fashion to abuse it, the fact remains
that open it where you may you are sure
to be amused. "Lothair" also sells well,
and so does ''Coningsby," but '''Sybil,"
which in reality is by far the most able
and original of the political novels, does
not 60 off so well as either "Coningsby"
or Lothian, and its sale is not more
than half that of Vivian Grey" The
result of the Imperial policy" was that
the sale of "Tancred" has more than
doubled since 1915 - Ton6foe Ifsesfh

Darwin and Emerson.

A London correspondent of the Ad0er-
tjser, under date of April %, writes: "On
Wednesday l attended the funeral of
Charles Darwin at Westminster Abbey
A vast cOncOurse of people was gathered
within the venerable pile. The chief
representatives of English science were
there. as well as some of the most noted
men in literature and politics. A more
heterodox assembly. perhaps, was never
gathered within the walls of q Christian
church. Whether this pOrtends the
coming reconciliation of science and re
ligion ] know not; but it was strange to
see within this ancient church the worn.
thoughtful face of Huxley. the expan-
sive forehead and mild countenance Of
Herbert Spencer, the spare form and
eager, expressive glance of John Morley,
while Tyndall, Lecky, Frederic Harri-
son, and others outside the pale of the
church, helped to swell the con.
course of illustrious mourners. Mr.
Lowell was one of the pallbearers, and
he admirably represented the culture of
America offering her tribute at Darwin 8
tomb. The service was beautiful and
solemn, appealing as powerfully to the
minds of the eminent agnostics as to the
few representatives of orthodoxy who
CHANGED to be present. l suppose we
shall hear something again from certain
church papers about the dissertation of
the abbey" We heard that when Lyell
was buried there; and now there repose
in the same great shrine the remains of
one greater than Lyell, and whose
thought has acted as the most powerful
dissolvent on the current conceptions of
his age. There is no department of
thought which has not felt Darwin's in
fluence, and which can stand exactly
where it did before he began to give his
powerful writings to the world. His
grave is near that of Newton, and no
Englishman of science except Newton
conld be named who has exerted a
mightier intellectual influence than Oar
win.
Death is making terrible havoc among
the noblest men of the world, for this
week we have heard of the condition of
Emerson. The kilograms inform us
that he is slowly dying. What beauti
full light will be extinguished when he is
removed from amongst usl l shall not
soon forget his serene countenance as l
saw it in his Concord home not long ago.
Thus. within few weeks of one another,
the United States lose their two foremost,
intellectual representatives; and the
world seems poorer and darker and less
worth living in.

THE FIVE PER CENT. LAND BILL.
Arguments for and Against 1.-THE
states that VIII be Benefited.

The Senate on Tuesday took up the
five per cent. land bill and heard the
speech of Mr.. Plumb for it and that of
Mr. Blair against it. Mr.. Plumb, in his
remarks, followed closely the argument
made by him in his report on the bill,
which was introduced by Mr.. Voorhees,,
holding that the government, in receiv-
ing the Western and Southern States into
the Union. had made contract to pay
them per cent. upon the sales of public
lands situated in the several States. He
also maintained that the grants of land
made for military services were sales,
and that the government should pay the
stipulated percentage upon such grants,
as if they had been sales for cash. Mr..
Blair, on the contrary, took the ground
that these grants were not sales; that
Congress in admitting the States had not
surrendered its power over the public
domain or tied the hands of the nation
against the right to do with the lands
whatever might cOnduce to the public
welfare If the States were entitled to
5 per cent, they might as reasonably
claim much more. He regarded
the entire claim for indemnity as an
afterthought Both MIR. Plumb and
Mr.. Blair submitted tabulated state
ments, for publication in the Record, to
show the number of acres estimated to
have been disposed of on military war
rants, but gave no estimate of the cost to
the government of the proposed indem-
nifty of five per cent. A recent estimate,
made unOficially at the Land Office,
placed the aggregate at about So, 800, 900.
but it is generally believed that it would
prove to be a much larger sum. Mr..
Blair estimates that Alabama will claim
$72 AS; Arkansas, $141 BOG; Iowa,
1881 600; Illinois, 81 ,095, 900; Kentucky,
$207 900; Louisiana, $72, 900; Michigan,
1907 600, and so on through the list of
States to be made participators in the
draft upon the Treasury should the bill
pass.
Mr.. Dwight, who has made minority
report in the House of Representatives,
says of the bill that considered in the
light of the circumstances surrounding
it, it is subject to the suspicion that the
great States making this extraordinary
demand yielded to the sophistry of
greedy attorneys and claim agents, who
originated the proposition. !" The States
named as prospective participators in
the 8 per cent. recovery on all military
land grants, at the rate of 81 % per acre,
are OHIO, Indiana, Illinois. Missouri,
Michigan, Wisconsin. Minnesota, Iowa,
Nebraska, Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana,
Alabama Mississippi, Florida, Oregon,
Nevada and Colorado. There are eighteen
States of the Union, with thirty-six Sena.
tors, each of whom can be depended
upon, almost as matter of course, to
vote for bill to take money out of the
United States Treasury and put it in the
State Treasures. 1t would be surprising
if few States not expecting to be bene-
flied were not induced to take the same
view of the measure as that entertained
by the Senator from Kansas.

A SUMMARY of the different ways in
which milk may become so effective as
to transmit disease to human beings has
been presented by DR.. Vacher: 1. The
milk may be derived from a tuberculOus
cow 2. 1t may be derived from a COW
suffering from a specific epiZOOtic dis
ease. 3. 1t may be drawn from an in
famed udder. 4. 1t may have under
gore chemical or Preventative change.
8. 1t may have become infected with the
contagium Of an animal disease. 6. It
may have become infected with the cor
tagium of human disease Two pre-.
ventives of mischief are recommended
to he consumer: 1. To examine the
milk delivered to him, and to reject it If
it appears to be watered, or if it is
streaky, ropy, blood-stained, or smells
bad from any cause. 2. To insist upon
all the milk received being thoroughly
boiled. To these precautions may be
added that of keeping the milk in COW
cred vessels in closets where the atmos-
phere is clean and cool. Milk or butter.
unless carefully preserved from contami-
nation, will very soon play havoc with
sensitive constitution. The restaurant
system of exposing butter to atmosphere
charged with all manner of abomina.
tions is highly reprehensible.
1t seems, according to an abstract
from the Celestial Empire, that in for
mer times in China it was customary for
man of means, when he reached the
age Of fcrty, to purchase his coffin.
Thrice every year he would paint the
coffin with some sort of varnish mixed
with pulverized porcelain. What this
silicate paint consisted of is now lost art,
even in China. The frequent applica-
tons of the paint impaired to the coffin
if the in ended occupant lived long
enough, metallic firmness, and the
receptacle after some years was enameled
with hard stone.like substance a foot
or more thick When death took place
the body of the owner of the coffin was
preserved by filling the cavities of the
stomach, etc., with quicksilver for the
purpose of preserving it. When piece
of Jade was placed in each nostril and
ear and one hand, and silver bar placed
in the other hand, the body was laid in
the coffin on a layer of quicksilver, and
then the coffin was sealed up, and with
its contents consigned to its last resting
place A suggestion of some change in
the belief of the Chinese of the nature
of their fate after death is here indicated.
All this is, we would think, hostile to
the prevailing notion of tTansmigratior
of souls. But this is not the place to
enter upon investigation of that subject.
The bodies contained in the enameled
sarcophagil remained in a good state of
preservation for centuries, bat they
crumbled into dust soon after they were
exposed to the air.
