Archbishop CIeary's Circular Letter TO
Catholic Canadian Taxpayers

Archbishop CleHry's Circular Letter to
Catholic Canadian Taxpayers.
KINGSTON, ONT, April 11.-Archbishop
Cleary has issued circular letter to the clergy
in his diocese respecting the relation of the
Roman Catholics to the separate schools, which
has created decided sensation.
The Archbishop charges the priests to call
upon every ratepayer who deliberately chooses
sides with the enemy for the gradual destruc.
tiOn of Catholic education in this province, and
announce to him in the name and authority of
the Bishop that his action Is rebellion against
the Church, and that the Archbishop reserves
to himself alone, or in his presence, to the ad-
mipistrator, all power Of absoving such re-
bellious Catholic from his sins unless he shall
have signed a written declaration that he
heartily repents of having injured the Church
and scandaliZed his neighbors by his withdrawal
of his taxes from Catholic education, and shall
have promised to become supporter of the
separate school at the earliest opportunity. On
receipt of such written declaration any priest
of the diocese may grant absolution.

not be subverted.

1t is interesting to observe the urgency
with which the Republican organs are advising
Senator Emery to name the candidate for Gov
ernor. whom he prefers, and to present his
name to the State Convention. This way of
rem edytng the matters of which Emery COM
plains is familiar and favorite one with those
who have got the pins thoroughly set up. But
after some years of experience the people who
are dissatisfied have come to the conclusion
that more effective way may be to preserve
their independence, and take their position
after the nomination is made.

The Smithield Club is composed, for the most
part, of well-known and popular young Pitts

and expectancy. The event amply justified all
the hopes which had been current, and the fes-

Moving to Get Turnpikes.
From the Harrisburg Telegraph

From the Harrisburg Telegraph
The rural roads are bad, and the farmers are
rapidly realizing that upon their character no
little of their prosperity or adversely depends.
In the western section OF the State they are
just now giving much attention to the subject.
Meetings are being held and means devised for
perfecting the roads over which the farmer
must take his grain to market, and in season
too when the dirt roads are at their worst.
Every farmer cannot be within reach of rail-
road, many of them must haul every pound Of
the product of the farm for many miles before
they reach the iron way which has had so much
to do with the prosperity of our great nation.
1t is, therefore, gratifying to know that the
people of Lower Paxton, Susquehanna and ad-
joining townships are moving in the matter
with the promise of a turnpiked road into the
heart Of one Of the best farming sections Of
the county,

ipgs She Had, and of Prophecies Sin.
guIarIy Fulfiled-Lincoln's Assn ssinn.
tion Predicred-1he Rebellion ForetoId.
COME years ago Mrs. Victoria Q. Woodruff. in
q communication to the Boston Post, re-
lated the following story of her early life in her
Ohio home. and of prophecy that was singu-
larly fulfilled:
Among the many early incidents in my own
life 1 remember the following: One evening
there came to our house to remain for the
night gentleman who was on his way to New
York to meet his family, which was coming by
ship from England During the evening, while
sitting at the table playing with some young
sisters, raps began to come upon 1t. said to
mother that a spirit wanted to say something
to the gentleman. The spirit raped out that
she was his wife; and that very day the vessel
on W hich she sailed had foundered at sea, and
that she with both the children had been
drowned. The gentleman was greatly alarmed.
but continued his journey to New York. He
returned a month later and confirmed what had
been told him by the raps.
When Lincoln was on his way to Washington
to be inaugurated President, my sister Tennie
was with father and mother at a prominent
hotel at Pittsburg. Thousands of the inhab-
itants had assembled in the street through
which 1t was known he was to pass in his car
riage, my parents and sister being among the
number at this hotel. As the carriage passed
the house, and as soon as it came in sisters
sight, she sunk into the chair from which she
had risen and exclaimed: HE will never leave
the White House alive. I heard pistol shot
and saw the blood running from mis- head and
his coffin In the carriage with him." On the
morning OF the memorable night when this
vision was absolutely verified. sister was at the
ofhce of one of the prominent daily papers of
Cincinnati, when she said to the people with
whom she was conversing, "Your paper, in the
morning, will contain the telegraphic news of
all event that will cause the whole nation to
drape itself in mourning

How II Strikes Tennessee.

From the Chattanooga Times,
THE PITTsBURG DISPATCH has sent out an
expeditionary force of reporters to ride over
all the main country roads of Pennsylvania and
report upon their condition. The force will
consist of staff writer, photographer and
artist. They are going in strong wagon spe-
cially made for the trip, with a strong team OF
horses, and they will take several weeks to
cover the many hundred miles Of travel in
which they expect to be able to show the people
the exact condition Of their highways When
these gentlemen get through with Pennsylvania
if they still long for further similar adventure,
we present them cordial invitation to meander
over the roads of Tennessee, which probably
double discount those of the Keystone State,
bad as the latter are reported to be.
