The Catholic Church ON Sab
bath-break1ng and Sell
ing Liquor ON
Sunday.

Tie strong stand Of the Catholic
church against divorce, except for the
only cause authorized by the new Testa-
ment, adultery, is well known but
many Protestants are Of the opinion
that the Catholic church is Indifferent
to Saba tn breaking generally, and
selling liquor on that day. This church
is not puritanical in its requirements
for Sabbath observance and it may
consider innocent and harmless some
recreations INDUCED in on that day,
that the puritapical condemn as sins.
The prelates of the plenary council of
the Catholic church, just held at Balti-
more, have issued a pastoral letter.
The desecration of the Lords Day is
most severely condemned, and upon this
point the letter says: The Lords Day
| is the poor mans day OF rest. 1t has
| been taken from him, and the labOring
classes are seething volcano of social
discomfort. The Lords Day is Il home
day, drawing closer sweet domestic ties
by giving the toiler day with his wife
and children: but it has been turned in
! to day of labor, and home ties are fast
! losing their sweetness and their hold.
| Far it be from us to advocate such Sun
| day laws as would hinder necessary
work or prohibit such popular enjoy
ments as are consistent with saCredness,
| To turn the Lords Day into day OF
| toll is a blighting curse to country, to
turn it into day of dissipation would
be worse.
"There is one way of profaning the
Lords Day which is so prolific of evil
result that we consider it our duty to
utter against it special condemnation
This is the practice of selling beer OF
other liquors on Sundny, or of frequent
ing places where they are sold. This
practice tends more than any other tC
turn the day of the Lord into day Ot
dissipation, to make it an occasion fol
breeding intemperaDce. While we hope
that Sunday laws on this point will no
be reduced, but even more rigidly en-
forced, we impiore all Catholics for thu
love of the good of the country nevel
to take part in such Sunday traffic, no
to patrOnize, or cOuutenance it, and WI
not only direct the attention of all pas
tors to depress the abuse, but we alst
, call upon them to induce all of thel
tlocks that may be engaged in the sail
of liquor to abandon as soon as the!
can, a dangerous traffic and to embrac,
more becoming way Of making liv
ing, and here it behooves us to remin'
our workingmen, the bone and sinew o
the people, and especially the beloved
i children of the church. that If they wisl
to observe Sunday as they ought, the.
must keep from drinking places on Sat
urday night. Garry your wages hOm
to your families where they rightfull,
every temptation and then Sunday vii
!, be a bright day fOra all the family"
6 awe invoke blessing on the cause o
temperance aud on all who are laborin
) for it's advancement in a true Christia
, spirit"

A gentleman just from Lake Charles,
reports business very dull there. The
yards of the numerous sawmills are
covered with lumber, and there is but
little demand for it, caused by the short
crops in Texas. There is a move on
foot to have the Calcasieu river deep
ened so as to admit large vessels, and
thereby cause a European demand for
Calcasieu lumber, which OF its kind
cannot be excelled.

The police jury last Tuesday acted in
the matter of the railroad assessments
in this parish. The Morgan and Loui-
siana Western roads were assessed at
$500 per mile, and the Pacific road at
only $4,000. When the assessments
were made last year the Pacific road
was not completed, and for that reason
the assessment was put at $4,000. This
year the assessor copied the old assess
ment, and hence the discrimination.
On account of this discrimination, the
Morgan and Louisiana Western roads
sned for reduction of assessment; but
they proposed to compromise, and with
draw the suit, on an assessment of $4,000
per mile. The police jnry accepted the
proposition, and in our opinion acted
wisely.
