Council i'm lss4.-The action of the con

Council In lSS4.-The action of the con
ference of the American bishops now in SEES
sion in Rome in deciding to call council o.
the bishops of the United States, to meet In
Baltimore in November, 1884, is a surprise
in Catholic circles here, as it was generally
understood the council would not meet un.
til the year following What induced the
change is not known. Fixing on Baltimore
as the place of meeting is another surprise
as, although the Archbishop Of Baltimore is
the primate of the United States, New York
being the residence of the only American
Cardinal, and the metropolis of the coun-
try, il was thought likely that the council
would meet there.
The work to be done by the council is for
most part matter of conjecture to all ex-
cept possibly the bishops now in Rome, and
perhaps they may not know of all the ques.
tons TO be taken up One question, which
it is thought will undoubtedly be considered,
is the advisabilty of promulgating the canons
ofthe Council OF Trent throughout the coun.
try. AT present they are in force only in
Louisiana and certain territory along the
Mississippi river, being that part of the
country originally owned by the French.
This question, il may he said, involves all
Others of consequence that may come up
These canons regulate the relations between
the bishops and the priests, provide for the
division of old parishes and the erection of
new ones. and, in word, are the laws Of
the dioceses. Under them parish priests are
appointed. In this country now there are
no parish priests as the term is understood
abroad, except in the territory mentioned
above. As Il is now,a priest can he re-
moved by the Bishop at will. Once a
clergyman is appointed parish priest under
the regular canon law, he cannot he re.
moved except for grave offense and by
specified methods lie is parish priest for
lille, and no matter to what age he lives, the
other priests in the parish are his assistants.
The parish is obliged H. provide for his wants
until his death. Altogether, the power of a
parish priest in his own parish is very great,
80 long ny he conducts himself in conformity
with the canon law. Another matter regu-
lated by canon law is the administration of
church finances. Under the canon law.
when the revenues of parish do not meet
the expenses the latter are cut down, and
priest is not allowed to contract debt on
account OF the church on his own response
bility This system Of banking on the part
OF bishops and priests, such as occasioned
the Archbishop Purcell and Augustinian
Brothers scandals, it is thought will be done
away with by the council Numerous other
questions in connection with canon law will
come up, and there will ne doubt he others,
and some important ones, too not thought
of now The council will be composed of
all the bishops in the country. The heads
Of religious organizations will be invited to
be present. Each bishop will be accsmpa.
MED by his the0ogians, who, il their bishop
desires it, will make arguments for their
superior on theological and other points.

Horses and Civilization.

A professor at Yale College maintains
that the development Of the trotting
horse is "a special product Of the high
est civilization the world has yet seen.
Now, rs the trotting horse is an Amcri-
can production, and is hardly known in
Great Britain, and was not at all known
to the Greeks, il would follow, accord
ng to Professor Brewers logic, that the
highest civilization has been reached in
the United States. "Mohammcdansm,
according to Professor Brewer. spread
wherever the Arabian horse and his
armed rider could tread. and no further
The Moor went into Spain, but when he
was finally expelled he left his barbed
horse behind, and from this sprang the
famous Spanish breed. When the
Spanish horse was at its best, then Spain
was at her height among nations; and
as her horse declined her glory wanod. y
The professor points out that though it
took from the year 22OO b. {. 10 Inc
present century to produce three-min-
ute horse, since then the scale has been
lowered in almost a mathematical ratio.
In 1918 Boston Blue made mile in
minutes; six years later Top Gallant
reached 2;40 on the plank. The record
was lowered without break every three
or four years until in 1855 the famous
Flora Temple reached 2;l9i, while Dcx-
ter followed in 1867 with 2:l7t, Gold.
smith Maid in 1874 with 2:l4, and at last
Maud 5. reached 2:lOi in 1881. While
in 1856 there was but one horse in the
world that had trotted in 2;2j, we had
in 1882 some 495 with that record, an
increase of 76 over 1881. We have 81
horses with 2:l9 record, although nine
teen years ago there was not one in the
country.
The horse is no doubt the product Of
civilization that is, the running and
trottng horse. Professor Marsh, Of
Yale Scientific School, will show any
one the prehistoric fossil horse with his
five toes, more or less; and the modern
horse, in many instances, still shows the
marks of rudimentary toes, But while
the horse has reached high standard
Of civilization, it hardly follows that the
trotting horse marks the highest stage Of
civilization. This one fact, however, is
pretty well established, that he is max
Ing greater speed both As a runner and
a trotter, than ever before. The new
development Of speed is contemporary
with the introduction Of the locomotive.
When the latter was so perfected that
! it could make forty miles an hour, then
the horse quickened his pace until now
he makes a mile in some cases in 2:l04.
That is the mark OF our civilization, ac-
cording to horse logic. Civilization in
this country has reached the mark of
2l0i. 1t is true that in sta,uary and in
the line of physical training We have not
yet reached the Greek standard, yet in
horse flesh We are ahead Our public
galleries of art and our public librarie,
are meagre concerns, But the world
will take notice that if we Fave not
developed the man to perfection, tie
horse is little ahead.
