Cardinal Newman, in the earlier years of his
career, that, in his own case. he was always
consulting the auspices, so to speak, to guide
his course and to decide some question which
he found it impossible to decide simply on its
own merits. An unexpected act, or word, OF
encouragement, or check, the appearance OF
a book or an article, pleasant or otherwise, 9
meeting, separation, came to him with the
Significance of an Intervention. Whatever
happened, Newman interpreted it as prSyi
dentially designed.
THE Rev. DR.. Hicks, the ghostly adviser Of
Guiteau, exchanged pulpius on late Sabbath
with the Rev. DR.. Shipper, of the Unitarian
church. DR.. Hicks is a Methodist, and DR..
Shippen's congregation were amazed to see g
Wesleyan Methodist in their pulpit, but no
more than were DR.. Hicks congregation to see
Unitarian in theirs. The fact is well devel-
oped that DR.. Hicks is crank, thirsting, as
did Guiteau, for notoriety, and it is said he is
well pleased to be taksn from the obscurity OF
an unknown city church and thrust into ma
tional notoriety by his connection with gal.

merce in descanting on the mysteries of fish
food, or rather as he prefers to call it, "fsh
fesh,'' says it is plain from close
observation for many years that
trout do not necessarily lose
flesh when cut off from food. There does not
exist, or exists in very small degree, in some
fish the law of animal life that the flesh
changes by the excretions and re-supply
through food and digestion: Trout have been
kept without food for months in cold spring
water in which 10 animalcule life could be
detected, without diminution OF weight. This
experiment has been tried repeatedly with the
above result. It is not supposed that fish
ever perspire.

There were present representatives from
many towns in the kingdom, as well as from
London. Mr.. Moody said that he. had in hand
sufficient invitations to keep him hard at work
in Great Britain for the remainder of his life,
and he was urged to return to Chicago at once.
He proposed, however, moving about Scotland
for short time, and thea visiting Paris for a
fortnight. After that he hoped to preach in q
number of towns in the south and southwest
OF England. Liverpool might probably be
reached next spring, and London last of all,
where long stay was necessary. 1t was ulti-
mately decided that all future arrangements
should be left in the hands of the London
committee.

God, there was fearful lapse into bsrbarity,
and such horrors ensued that Christianity
in very social self-protection, by formal
act of government, was restored in 1902.
One of the counsellors of that day made an
address on the occasion of the reinstatement
of the worship of God, in which he said:
"For want of a religious education for the
last ten years our children are without any
ideas of divinity; without any notion of
what is just or unjust; hence arise barbarous
manners; hence people become ferocious.
Alas, this is what we have gained by deviating
from the path pointed ont 10 us by our an

NEWPORT is doubtless a fair sam
pie of our fashionable resorts, and
in describing one, all are substanti-
ally portrayed. A recent visitor 10 Newport,
the high-toned fashionable watering place
headquarters of fashionable folly, dissipation
and sin, trenchantly gives expression to his
impressions as follows: took run to New
port last week on business. The place has
"biggened," and with the new electric lights
tits more brilliant than ever. And it is the
place of all others where swells and snobs do
congregate. If you want to see what fools
Americans who have money make of them
selves, what ridiculous airs they put on, how
they ape the aristocratic idiots and deadbeats
of England, how they disgrace their parent

and spend the evening at the Casino. You
will agree with ma that Dean Swift was right
when he said the Lord shows his estimate of
money by the sort of folks he gives it to.

Catholic Reuieic of recent date has the fol-

and timidity in Ireland in dealing with the
fact of emigration from that island. We
