A Catholic opiniOa of victor Hugo.

Father Phelan in the Western Watchman.l
He lived without principle, and he died
without prayer. Such would be q fitting
epitaph for Victor Hugo.
He was the greatest literary demagogue Of
any age. Rousseau ar d VolIaire taught the
people the principles OF blasphemy and gave
them grand epics of literary impiety. Hugo
Filed the popular variations. Therefore was
he the oemigod OF the French public. Hugo
would never have bean known had be been
bonn outside Of France, aud there his fame
will lot outlive the present generation. His
poetic genius was the traditional French
soubIette; piqUant, lea and q trihe naughty.

out Of Paradise they were told to labor aud
sweat. The French people can live on less
than any other people OF the globe, hence
they are less bound TO labor; hence they es
cape much Of the penalty of the original
trsDsgTession, and have much more time to
indulge their passions than less favored PEG
pies. Light wines, light novels, light labor
and light principles of morality, constitute
the stock in trade OF French civilization.
