of Dynamite Methods.

Cardinal McCabe's Indignant Denunciation
of Dynamite Methods.
DUBLIN, Feb lion Sunday, in all the Cath
olic churches, was read, amid an impressive
silence and rapt attention, the lenten pastoral
letter which Cardinal McCabe had prepared on
the eve of his sudden death. The pastoral ex-
presses indignant reputation of the hideous at
.empts made for the destruction Of property and
Innocent lives by the foul dynamite conspiracy,
which has startled the world by its wicked
ness. 1.-THE object Of the wicked con-
spiracy,' said the pastoral. lis to
achieve the independence of Ireland, and
ayenge the wrongs inflicted on that unhappy
country in former times. God knows the record
Of it's wrongs forms the BLACKLIST page in Euro
pean history, but surely savage vengeance is not
calculated to win God or the world to the side OF
that poor and afflicted country. which has no
more deadly foes than the wretched men who
support or countenance schemes 80 detestable.
Deeply as love Ireland would gladly consent
to a continuation of its greatest sorrow rather
than see its redemption worked ont by agencies
that God and the church anathematize."
The pastoral created profound sensation. In
all the churches the other bishops denounced
dynamiters.
