Rome Cable: In an encyclical letter Of the
pope, which viii be published next week, Leo
XIII lays special stress upon Freemasonry and
the means to be employed to defend ''the City
of Cod against "the City of Satan" The fol-
lowing is a resume of the letter: The plan ct
the secret societies is no longer a mystery It
is struggle against the church, and the va
rious popes have very properly excommuni-
Gated Freemasons Since $50 years the secret
societies have increased frightfully. A grave
peril thus threatens society. The socialist has
his source Of strength in Masonry. The pa
pacy is placed in an intolerable situatipn. Ma
sonny does not avow it's real object; It deceivee
the innocent by varnish Of
liberation. The press mar
rage, education, the sovereignty Of the peo-
pie, the atheism of the state, radicalism, COM
munism, all tend toward q return of paganiHm.
Masonry flatters princes in the hope of having
them for auxiliriea Governments should
choose between Masonry and the church, which
sustains authority and inculcates obedience.
The pope thus prescribes 10 bishops their du-
ties: First, by pastoral letters unmask secret
societies and make people abhor them; second,
extend Christian educahon third, urge agri-
cuiturists and workingmen to organize Catholic
associations and conferences of St Vincent de
Paul; fourth, watch schools and 'exhort the
youth never to become members of any society
without first consulting their priests. The
pope ends his encyclica by empl0ring the aid

The Bosom Friends Of Louis Ma
poleon.

Persigny and Walewski, with Gen.
Fleury, who was never Minister, wer
the Emperor's amis de ceur; his purse
was open to them; their power was en-
ormous and subject to no fluctuations,
and whatever indiscretions they COM
mitted these never led even to apass-
ing estrangement between them and
their master, because the Emperor,
knowing them intimately and being
quite alive to theii faults, was not efre;;I
to scold them De Mornys influence
was of different kind, and has been
generally misunderstood and exagger-
ated abroad. The Emperor disliked
this witty, polished. astute, and ambit-
ious statesman. 1t is no secret that De
Morny was connected very closely to
him by ilegitimate blood relationship,
and in 1852 just after the coup d'etat,
the further Duke, who was then Minist-
er of the Interior, was SO incautious as
to boast of this kinship In a speech at q
public dinner. It was owing to this
that he had to resign. The resignation
wAs generally attributed to the Minis
ter's repugnance to the decree which
confscated the property of the Orleans
family; but this was q mere pretext.
The truth was that Louis Napoleon
deeply resented De Morny's presump-
ton, and marked it for ever aftarword by
maintaining strict punctiliousness of
manner even in his most confidential
relations with the statesman, who was to
do the empire such good and showey
service in many ways. With Persigny
and Walewski, on the contrary, the
Emperor was on such terms that he ad-
dressed them as Tu, and Persigny was
man of SO passionate and impulsive
temper that he sometimes forgot himself
to the point of saying Tu, in return

days ago:

of John Brown, taken from him when
he was captured. It was given to my
father by Brown when he was in cap
tivity. I have been offered $500 for it,
but refused to sell it. It is one of the
finest pieces of metal ever saw. The
weapon is q cavalry sabre, with an iron
scabbard and bone handle. The
blade is regular Damascus blade,
finely etched, and SO plant that you
can press the point around to the handle
and when it is released it viii resume

"How came your father to get it n"
ssWhen Brown Law wounded, my
father went to him and took the sword
from under him. After keeping it
awhile he carried it to Brown and said:
Capt. Brown, probably you would want
to give this sword to some of yout rela-
tives, and I have brought it to you to
make such disposition of it as you see
fit Brown said: No, you have been
very kind to me. for which thank you,
and in consideration you shall keep the
sword So my father kept it, and gave
it to me. Up to few years ago it still
showed the stains af blood obtained in
Browns Kansas raids. He told my
father that the stains were Kansas blood,
and that the sword never drew blood in
Virginia"

Much of the alleged Generalization
in the administration of justice in this
country must be attributed to the in
fuence of modern reformers, philoso-
pliers and so-called humanitarians, in
so far as their efforts are directed to
crime and criminals. Though hopeless
~ bewildered and dazed by the prob
lem, yet their atterams have . good
deal of weight with those who do not
think for themselves. A fair i1ustra-
ton of the tendency Of their helpless
notions is afforded in an account Of .
discussion before the Boston associated
charities on the subject Of drunkenness.
Mr.. Richard David took the position
that drunkenness is habit. He was OPP
posed to our system Of fines, - those
who can pay are never criminally pun
ished, while thepoor victims ware locked
up, thus making poverty punished in
stead of drunkenness. As the discussion
progressed the speakers grew moro and
more liberal in their views until the
Rev. James Freeman Clarke capped the
climax by saying that he considered our
entire penal system wrong. He be-
ieved that we had no real right TO pun
ish anyone. We had the right to re-
strain q criminal and keep him out Of
the way, but that was all. Another
fallacy that is seduously inculcated, Is
that education makes people good,
while the fact is entirely established
that crime has its hot-beds IN the CEN

The empress is at once proud and
capricious, and in some ways is one of
the most interesting, as well as extraor-
binary, women Of her rank that thecen
fury has produced, writes correspon-
dent from Vienna. She is equally
prond Of her hair, and her figure, the
first being as abundant as q Magdalen's
the latter as slender as . girls. The
former she wears as loosely as possible;
the latter she tightens as much as she
can. Her waist belts used to be shown
as curiosities in exhibitions. They
measured only 10 inches in circumfer-
ence. I can remember but one other
woman with waist SO small,
The emperor has always been model
husband, 3, far as admiration for his
wife's beauty is concerned. He is re-
ported to have said ON one occasion that
1.-The Impress Eugene might be the
most beautiful woman in the world if
there were not my wife.
When the Shah Of Persia travelled
some years ago in Europe, the empress
Of Austria was the only sovereign who
would not receive him. She shut her
self up in a country castle all the time
that he was in Austria. She never
could be induced to go to Paris during
the empire, the style of living at the
Tuileries not being to her taste. A short
time ago, also, when passing through
Paris, she would not go to the Elysee
to return the presidents visit. She
never follows fashion, it is said, but
makes her own fashions. and as all her
inventions are suited to her
own peculiarities of person, they
do not become many other
women. It was she who introduced the
abominable fash ion Of high shouldered
sleeves fulled in ON the shoulders, a
fashion which does little credit to her
artistic taste, to say the least.
Altogether, however, Austria is proud
of its empress, who, take her for all In
ell, is wonderfully attractive woman
of her age. must add that no woman
ever studied her own beauty SO much as
the empress does. Every hour of the
day is employed in its conversation.
She rises by daybreak and goes to bed
at dark, to keep her complexion clear,
and she spends her days or horseback
to keep her figure trim. Her food and
drink are carefully regulated, and for
the same object. This is certainly bet
ter than painting her face, but it is a
| life of sacrifices which few women would
be willing to lead, even for beauty's
sake.
