Gladstone's Irish Policy.

United ireland, edited by Mr.. VIM.
O'Brien aud partly owned by Mr.. Par
nell. says that Mr.. Gladstone's land and
home rule schemes are so closely knit
together and dependent on each other
that neither can stand alone. In proof
of that, United Ireland points to the
fact that the landlords of Ireland whom
Mr.. Gladstone proposes to buy out are
by the very terms OF the appropriation
bill made unable to avail themselves of
it's enactments until an Irish Legisla-
ture is established at Dublin to admin
lister the bill.

TEE RED HAT.
Cardinal Mooloskay'a 0apsllo IN St. Pat
rickts Cathedral,

Visitors TO ST. Patrick's Cathedral on
Fifth avenue, New York, will notice that
there Is now Suspended from the key
stone OF the grained roof. right over th e
| high altar, d somewhat remarkable OBJ
] iect It's great height above the floor
may render it somewhat difficult for
those who do not possess good sight
to tell what it is, but ii they look at
it carefully they will find it to be 8
| low-crowned broad brimned hat Of
red color, with red and gold cords
hanging from the inside OF the crown,
to each OF which are attached fifteen
small red and gold tassels. 1t is the
hat which marked the elevation of the
Iirst American who ever attained the
honor TO the dignity Of the sacred
College, and is the one placed on the
head of the late Cardinal McCioskey
by Ills Holiness Pope Plus TX, when
the archbishop was created cardinal
by the title of Sta. Maria supra Min
ervam. The Pope, with his own hands
placed this hat on the head OF the car
dinal on that occasion, and it has
never been worn since. At his Emf
nences funeral, it may have been OBJ
served that ii was put at the foot OF the
cssket which contained his body, and
il is familiar to aIl by It's representa-
ton over the cardinals arms over the
main door of the cathedral and else-
where Aftar~the death Of any of the
Roman cardinals, the red hat is always
hing up in lis church, though gener-
ally in that from which he takes his
title in the Eternal City; in fact as far as
known, there IS but one other cardinals
hat preserved outside of Rome, namely,
that of the late Cardinal Wiseman, which
is hung in The Church of St. Mary,
Moorsfelds, London. The presence Of
the hat in the Cathedral of New York,
will remind generations of the amiable
prelate whose talents and virtues cansed
the Pope TO elevate hun to the highest
dignity within his power to confer. The
red hat itself represents to the cardinal
that it is his duty, at ell times, to be
ready and willing, if occasion arise, to
lay down his life for the faith, or for
even the least of the privileges of the
Holy See; and thus, while it confers
dignity which entities the owner to
more than royal honors in the church,
it also reminds him that the duties
which are inseparable from that Office
may call upon him to be stained in the
imperial purple of his own life blood
The presence of the cardinals hat with
in ST. Patrick's Cathedral will recall to
mind that, whatever may happen in the
future and elsewhere, this, at least, is
the honor of New York, that it gave to-
the church the first American cardinal,
and that it was in this cathedral pre-
sided one who, although an American
citizen, and proud TO claim the citizen
ship, was also prince Of the church,
and representative of vigorous west
ern life within the innermost circle of
her ruling councillors.

The Sunday Law Of Massachusetts,.


The Massachusetts, Sunday law is IS

travel, except for charity, mercy, neces-
sity or worship II also applies to
Saturday evening. IN letter and spirit,
if observed to-day, it would stop the
running Of horse-cars, Sunday papers,

know that it is obligatory on a Catholic
to attend Mas on Sunday. Tire Catho-
lie prisoners IN the Central Prison un-
4 der cell punishment did not attend, be-
cause they were not allowed to do SO BY
/ the Warden. Why did the Warden
prevent them? Was there any rule3of
the prison which justified him iii his
preventing them? Did he believe that
cell punishment and bread and water
/ diet would on Sunday, the day Of rest,
produce more sanitary effects upon the
refractory prisoners than the mild doc
trines OF the Savior, even if promul-
gated by the Catholic priest? The Priest
joined Issue with she Warden on these
questions. Believing that the Warden
WIS depriTing the prisoners OF right
(and they have bat few to which they
| were entitled, the Priest, on the call Of
duty and III the interest of those who
had no opportunity of asserting their
rights, respectfully demanded their
presence at Mass whether under extra
punishmentso or not.
During the time OF Mr.. Massie's pre-
decessor a dying convict stricken douaa
suddenly, asked and prayed thai q
Priest should be summoned during the
hard hours of his last night on earth.
Some OF the Commissioners no doubt
understand how anxiously the dying con-
Wet must have looked for the arrival OF
his spiritual advlser-how well he knew
that the summons to the death bed
would be answered with alacrity, and
the comfort, consolation and strength
which would have neryed the dying man
IN his last struggle had his last request
been complied with. He waited, Wrest-
ling with his pain, well-knowing that.
BEFORE the sun be risen
His body should be out Of pain,
His soul be ont of prison"
In The gray of the morning two mes
sengers left the prison, one Guard to
bear the message to the Priest, the
other q soul; which desire to do right
and seek the last rites Of religion had
perhaps cleansed it from it's SINS When
the Priest came and found his mission
useless his face WAS as pale as the face of
the corpse that lay shrouded upon the
pallet of the ex-nrisoner's cell.
There is and was no rule of the Gem
trail Prison which authorized the War
den in refusing to allow the Catholic
prisoners under extra punishment to at
tend Mass on Standby. Then the Priest
was right and the Warden wrong.
Where il the evidence that there was no
such rule? Hear The Commissioners
themselves (page OF their report, and
condemn them, as VIC do, out Of their
own mouths:
So far as the rules OF the prison read,
every prisoner il obliged to go to SER
vice on Sunday, and the Warden is also
bound to see that every one does 50.
This rule was reasonably construed
by the present and the preceding War
den not to apply to prisoners confined
10 the cells on Sunday, as being under
punishment. In order to put this be-
You'd question, in future the Commits
sioners recommend that rule to the
effect that all prisoners attend the SER
vice of the denomination to which they
belong, unless exempted by the SUR
con, or if in punishment under the
order Of the Warden, or for sanitary
or other sufficient reasons,

enough the Irish business of last week
closed with a determination between
the Orange group and the Parnellites.
