THE NEW CATHOLIC CONVENT.


ihc imposln. ceremonies OF laying tho
Cornerstone of the New trsuiinc Acad-
envy and Convent building.
The cornerstone OF the new lrsuine
Academy building and convent was laid
last evening, Owing to the Indictment
weather, the gathering was net as large us
was anticipated, yet there was fair sized
assemblagc present.
The procession was formed ut 8 u. m,
AMI the ceremonies were inauguratel BY
the singing of the "Nena Creator Come,
Holy Ghost" after which very nppro.
pirate address was delivered by Rev. Father
Blume, of sherman. He stated that he did
not wish TO praise the sisters, but left il with
the people to Judge by their acts. This
much, however, ho could state without
transgreSsins in the loaS, the rules of pro.
p,iety. He said that the institution
to be erected was OF the most laud.
able nature and OF the most benoilcel.t
tendency; that 1t was OF advantage, not
alone OF the soul, but also OF the body, and
considered the eternal aS well as the tenn.
poral interest OF those who would be the
objects of its attention, By diilusing the
light of knowledge and virtue II would
strengthen the bonds OF civil society ana
contribute to the peace and happiness of
mankind. Whilst teaching their daughters
the principlo OF morality, both Ivy word and
example, tho good sntcrs in charge would
do all in their power TO make them worthy
women and good members Of society. The
institution would promote the wealth and
add to the strength, not alone OF tho city,
but of the whole country, Tor the
prosperity OF the nation consisted,
not SO much in the riches ard
number of its inhabitants as In their indus
try and virtue; The institution will be
{ open 10 all, and thus enhance its useful
ness IN an cs ecisl manner, for the children
educated under tho same roof, Joining in
the same games, aud growing up together
III society would contract mutual feelings
OF love, and would give us the sweet hope
that NJ no distant period Christians would
become united in the bonds OF peace and
social Interchange Of friendly feelings.
/ Parents could then rest assured that tue
/ children would no well attended to while
visiting the institution. However, that was
not sufficient u true Christian education
should begin Vt home. Parents should do
in their families what the good sisters do
At school, teaching their chill.
drcn ny word and example.
hut also many parents instead of teaching
them what God and religion REQUIRED ot
them, would instil into the hearts of their
children the false and destroying max,ms
OF the world, which were contrary to the
teachings of the Bible, whilst Christ was
blessing tho poor aud calling woe upon the
rich, parents, would represent riches and
earthly goods as tho only fountain Of true
happiness Whilst Christ was saying,
learn OF me, for | am weak and
humble Of heart parents won't say

The Roane Brothers.

Senator s. NJ Roane, of Webster county,
and Senator W. A. RoaHe, of Calhoun,
were among staunch defenders of the peo-
pies rights in the Legislative halls at the
recent convocation of our law makers at
the State capital.-Vaiden Nucleus.
The above compliment is no less pertinent
than deserving. The Roane brothers were
amoag the wide-awake, far-seeing and plo-
neer men of the Senate. In the hands of
such men, the public welfare of the Two
contiguous districts which they represented
in the State Sena'e will never be unguarded,
and their constituency will ever be gratifed
thai they have'watchmen who are acquaint-
ed with the signs of the times and sleepeth
not in times of danger.-Walthall Warden.
A little bit of personal history as re-
lated in the Calhoun Reporter, may not
be out of place in connection with the
above: The Roanes are sprung from
a noted family of noted jurists. Their
grandfather, Archibald Roane, was
Judge of the supreme court of Tennes-
see, and also one of the earlier Govern
ors of that State. That eminent jurist,
Judge Spencer Roane, of Virginia, was
a near relative of theirs, and also Hon.
John S. Roane, Governor of Arkansas,
and Samuel Roane, Judge of the SUI
preme Court of that State. The Roane
brothers are worthy of their lineage.

Justice without strength, and strength

Many often judge the person, but not the

Happiness is always the inaccessible

The Gulf and Ship Island Railroad

NO. Picayune 1t is to be hoped that
Congress will grant the request of the MIS-
sissippi Legislature, and waive the reverslon
of the lands donated to the State by the
act of 1856, for the purpose of building a
railroad from the seashore to the interior.
Notwithstanding the fact that Mississipprs
requirements in the way of seaports are
sufficiently satisfied for all practical pur-
poses by Mobile and New Orleans, still 1t IS
a matter of State pride to build up port
distinctively Mississippian, and we can un-
derstand and sympathize with such desire
Besides, the greater the business of the coast
the greater becomes New Orleans. The
building of the Gulf and Ship Island Road
will not injure New Orleans, while it will
furnish railroad communication with New
Orleans to a considerable portion Of the
State, and will supply competition in trans
portation, as well as facility.
