A GREAT ENTERPRISE.
Completion of the National Catholic Univer-
sity Assured.

Washington Special.
Work on the building of the new Catholic uni
versity will not be begun until next season. A
meeting of prelates will be held in the autumn
to adopt plans. In the meanwhile Bishop Spaul-
ding, of Peoria, will issue circular letter fully
explaining the entire purposes of the uni
versity which will be addressed to the faithful
throughout the United States
An appeal for aid will probably form part of
this circular, although, as it is we'll known, the
funds on hand, which consist of Miss Caldwells
original endowment of $500, 600 and other sub
scriptions, reach nearly $780, 900. This money
pays for the site and building, which will be
first erected Further aid will be necessary to
endow the different chairs. The bishops are
very hopeful that $1,000 900 can be easily Sc
cured, and the university will start on success
ful basis.
The experiment is a vast one and every step
will be wisely considered before being acted
upon.
SO far as at present decided upon. there will
be expended on the theological department,
which is the building to be first erected about
$50 OO0 and the other wings TO accommodate
the medical, scientific and law courses will fol-
low as the needs of the university demand. The
first students will naturally be all priests, ano
It is expected that the dioccses of New York,
Brooklyn and Boston will furnish numbers o.
students. The clergymen will follow the pre-
scribed course of study under conditions never
before possible in this country.
The faculty will be made up of men of ma
tional prominence in their several specialties.
The domestic accommodations for both students
and professors are to be on very extended
scale, and every modern Improvement will be
utilized which will contribute in every way to
their health and happiness The eastern bishops
have assured the trustees that in each of their
dioceses there are plenty of clergymen who are
anxious to avail themselves of the higher course
of study, and who will be spared from their pres
ent labors until they emerge from the university
better equipped to face the work of the day
Students later on who will be admitted to the
scientific, medical and law departments, will
only be those who have already finished the or
dlnary course in other colleges

THE MUNSTER BANK.
The Lord Lieutenant Explains Why Govern
ment Cannot Aid the Bank.


DUBLIN, July 20-The Earl of Carnarvon,
rd-lieutenant in reply to deputation of per-
sons interested in the Munster Bank who
called to urge him to use his influence to secure
government aid for the bank, said the govern
ment could not give direct aid to the institution
The Viceroy explained his statement that the
government would be unable to aid the Munster
Bank directly, after having on Friday last prom
ised to use his influence to secure government
aid, by saying that in his first statement he
meant to express his personal sympathy with
the losers by the bank suspension, and
his desire to render them such assistance
as lay within his power. Since then he had un-
derstood it was outside the power of the gov
ernment to give such aid, except in the case of a
panic which seemed imminent few days since,
and thus prevent public calamity. Matters since
then had taken more favorable turn and the
Munster Banking Company ought to be able
to resuscitate the bank without government aid
The people. Earl Carnarvan said in conclusion
would always have the sympathy of himself and
his colleagues in the government in such trouble
as that incurred by the suspension Of the Nun
ster Bank
A London dispatch says telegram from Dub
lir, concerning Lord Carnarvans reply to the
deputation interested in the Munster Bank, says:
The deputation urged his lordship
to use his influence toward OBJ
tanning from the government a guarantee
for loan of 1000, 900 by the Bank of Ireland to
the Munster Bank. The deputation stated the
government would lose nothing by irdorsing the
loan, as they felt satisfied, after careful scru-
tiny of the affairs of the suspended bank, that
with the immediate advance of the sum named
they would be able to meet all demands in full
Lord Carnarvan. in reply, said that such action
as was desired by the deputaton was outside
the province of the government. It was only
when national calamity was threatened by
financial panic that the government could come
to the assistance of bank in the manner pro-
posed by the deputation.

WASHINGTON, July 20--During the past week
the citizens of Washington have been given
musical treat by the Mexican orchestra, which
is portion of the grand military Mexican band
that has been furnishing the music for the New
Orleans exposition. The orchestra is composed
in part of men who were members Of the famous
Spanish Students" who went through the
country a few years ago and achieved such dis
tin:tion in their line. While here one of these
trates the senstiveness of Gen. Ben Butler.
''When the Spanish students were at New
York" said he, ''they gave a concert at the
opening of the season, to which were invited q
number of noted citizens. Among them Was
General Butler. Many Of our men had heard of
this famous statesman before they left their
homes, and were eager to see him. He came up
far to the front, occupying, / believe, box.
When we emerged from the curtains to the stage
we naturally cast about to see General Butler.
No sooner had we all given him glance, how
ever, and located him than we observed him to
get up and leave the academy Our manager
and unable at the time to state his
reason for the exit Next morning, however, we
were told that General Butler had taken UNI
bragg at a portion of our dress. We wore q
small silver spoon diagonaly across our hat
bands. 1t was simply intended as an ornament,
and appeared wherever we did. However, l
suppose our looking about for, and then intently
gazing upon, the General, suggested to him that
our little insignia was intended to be personal"
This comes in the line of another incident
General Butler, while q member of Congress-
was riding on street-car here one day, at the
time the departments were closing in the
afternoon. A couple of lady clerks took passage
in the car. They instantly recognized General
Butler. One of them craned her neck over and
whispered to the other softly but audible to the
keen ear Of the General: Spoons" General
Butler did not appear to have heard the word,
but it was noticed that when the ladies got out
of the car he also alighted and followed them to
their home. He made note OF their addresses.
The next day they were both dismissed from
their positions.

GENERAL GRANT.
He Suffers from 0ver-Exertion Yesterday, but
Speedily Regains His Usual Condition.

MT McGREGoR, July 2O.-Last night was a
good one for sleep, the thermometer at General
Grants cottage showing fall of temperature to
6So. The General slept at intervals, and this
morning, after taking food, he wrote for Dr.
Douglas that his rest during the night had been
better than the average.
At o'clock this afternoon the General was
wheeled in his chair to point about 300 yards
from the cottage, where there is sweeping view
from Saratoga Lake far northwest. between the
Adirondacks and Green mountains. The return
was by very rough route, necessitating the
patients removal from the chair, and climb Of
some distance on foot. He reached the cottage
completely exhausted, but was out on the piazza
again couple of hours later. He retired at the
usual hour and slept we'll up to midnight.

Long Branch Special
Mr.. George w. Childs yesterday gave an in
teresting reminscence of Grants connection with
the third-term movement He said that Grant
himself was not in favor Of the third term. None
of his friends were. Mr.. Childs was very much
opposed to it himself. He thought that no good
for General Grant could come out of it, He said
that he spoke to General Grant about it after he
had returned to this country from a trip around
the world Mr. Chids said: You ought to
come out and say that you do not want this third
term, and declare in the strongest terms that
you will not accept the nomination if 1t is made. ="
General Grant acquiesced in this and said:
Il will write you a letter on this subject, and
will put in it anything you say"
MIR. ChlldS debated the matter, but before
action was taken other friends of General Grant
had taken such a decided stand that they refused
to 60 back, although privately informed that
Grant did not wish his name to be used. Sena-
tors Logan, Conkling and Don Cameron worked
for Grant because they believed that he was the
only man that could be elected, but not one of
them ever had any announcement or suggestion
from Grant upon the subject. They had no
authority to make single promise a reward
for work done. Senator Don Cameron after
ward said: IF we could have had the promise
OF single poStotfce we could have nominated
Grant. Butw never had word from him, and
up to the very last none of US knew whether
he would accept the nomination if it were
made"
The secret Of Grants dislike for Mr.. Blaine,
which dates from the Chicago convention, it was
said, grew out of Mr. Blaine's Misrepresentation
of him, and not out of the fact that MIR. Blaine
was instrumental in defeating his nomination.
Mr.. Blaines friends represented at Chicago that
General Grant was pledging every political office
in the country to carry the nomination, and that
his whole course during the four years of his
retirement was a deliberate campaign for
denomination
This third term movement undoubtedly post
poneiA.rantt being placed on the retired list OF
the army. Mr.. Childs had conference with
certain leading Southern men in Congress, and
had found them more than we'll disposed. 1t was
arranged that the bill retiring him should be
introduced in the House by Alexander H.
Stephens, and that the speech seconding the
same should be made by Gen. Joe Johnston
Other Southern leaders had promised to give
the bill their support There was no trouble
about it among the Southern men, but when the
third-term fight became hot so much bitterness
grew, out of it among the Republicans and
Northern Democrats that the project fell
through.

Hon. Albert H. Cox Opens the Argu-
ment in the Prohibition Fight.
ATLANTA, GA, Dec. 12.-In the United
States Court to-day, Judge McCay pre-
siding, argument was begun in. the con-
tested prohibition election case. After
reading a number Of affidavits as to the
interests of the parties who bring the bill
for the Injunction, and showing the meth
cd of conducting the election, the argu-
ment was opened by Hon. Albert II. Cox,
representing the liquor dealers. He ar
gued that the bill was unconstitutional
under the federal Constitution, because it
interfered with Interstate commerce and
discriminates between citizens of the sew
eral States in that il allows the sale OF
Georgia wine but prohibits the sale of
wine made in other States. He also claim
ed that the bill is unconstitutional under
the Georgia Constitution because it was
passed as a general bill, but is local IN its
operations, allowing elections only in
wet counties. He also attacked the
legality OF the election on the ground that
the election was ordered and the registra-
ton took place before tAe bill was pub
lished in accordance with the law. and
that the registration was illegal because
it closed ten days before the election, and
voters who became qualified after the
registration closed were not allowed to
vote: that tine use Of three ballot boxes at
each Atlanta precinct was illegal. The
argument will be resumed Monday.
