There appears to be every indication
that an earnest effort is being made by
the various railroads to pool the business
out OF New Orleans, but there is a hitch
somewhere, and the statement IS made
that the arrangement could be effected
but for some dissatisfaction to the pro-
posed terms on the part Of the Queen and
Crescent line. That there will eventu-
ally be such an arrangement there 10 but
but little doubt, and New Orleans viii be
the first OF all the southern cities where
the passenger traffic will be pooled. In
Texas the mater has already been ar.

Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia system,
In an interview says his road will not
meet the cut rates Of the Western and

cuts to Western points. as is threatened.
the East Tennessee will put on its fight
ing clothes and slash rates numerically.
Such sction will involve every Southern

Freedom Of Worship.

The Catholics of Rhode Island, like
their brethren of New York. are con-.
tending for freedom of worship in the
institutions supported by the State, and
in both cases, il seems to us, they have
the right on their side, so long as any
religious worship is conducted il such
establishments.
In his address before the annual con-
vention Of the Catholic Temperance
Union of Providence, the other day,
Father Burns, the President, spoke
forcibly against the persistent violation
of the article OF the State Constitution
Whidh provides that mo man shall be
compelled to frequent or support any
religious worship, place, or ministry
whatever, except in fulflment of bis
own voluntary contract" In the face
OF that explicit declaration, said
Father Burns, 1.-THE Catholic people Of
this State are obliged to contribute to
the support Of Protestant minister,
who is employed to conduct q worship
and to preach doctrine which they
believe to be false and heretical.n
In the State Prison aud House OF
Correction Protestant services are con-
Quoted every Sunday, while the Mass
is permitted on only one Snndss OF the
month, and tsthe Protestant minister is
paid out of the treasury Of the State
81 400 y year, and has also the use Of a
horse for himself and family, without
charge, while the Catholic priest ii
paid absolutely nothing" Besides, thu
Catholic inmates Of the correctional
and reformatory institutions are 'scorn
PEELED to attend the services SO con
ducted.n The Constitution is thus
violated, continued Father burns, all
though the Catholics of the State have
| become SO numerous, and are increas
ing so rapidly, that Rhode Island il
likely to be the first State in the UnioI
to have a majority Of it's electors d
Roman Catholic creed, and the prop.
erty qualifications for foreign voter
will not long operate to prevent such
1 result. The Protestants may have TIL,
upper hand now, but the day is not fa
loft when the Catholics will have th
/ superiority
That is a warning to which Protes
tants outside of Rhode Island ma
well give heed. The Catholics, in al
the manufacturing States especially
| are Increasing at amore rapid rate thai
the Protestants, SO that the day ma,
come when the agitation for freedom
OF worship will be on the Protestan
side. Is it not very dangerous for ii,
Il Protest to be establishing prece
4 dents which can so easily be use
/ against them?
4 The only logical ground to tax
against the Catholics in this matter
one which shocks tho clerical oDpon
ents Of the Freedom Of worship Bill
4 It's that, consistently. there can be n
religious worship or instruction in til
/ public institutions, since we have y
State religion to inculcate. Until th
enemies Of the bill consent to take tba
II position squayely, and II the face Of q
d It's consequences, they are bound 70 ,
/ beaten BY the Catholics IN the args
tment.
