DOM PEDRO FOR PRESIDENT,

81. ~ Executive of Druxil.

Executive Of Brazil.
PARIS, Feb. 1G.-Brazil still occupies
the attention Of European politicians.
The experiment Of republic is closely
watched by both skeptics and sympa.
thizers. A close friend Of Dom Pedro
has received letter from Brazil stating
that the movement there to place the
ex.Emperor in nomination for the presi.
dency OF the Republic is strengthening
aud spreading. The emperor has been
Informed OF the intention OF his friends,
and they await his consent to the use Of
his name. The Emperor has already
expressed his willingness to return to
Brazil in any capacity, public or private,
1t being his supreme desire to be allowed
to die among bis people. He has de.
clarcd, however, that be will not sanction
action in his behalf likely to lead to yio-
lence OF any kind. aT.. -.
"1f the people want me-" he says, "let
them call for me of tEeir own free will
and indicate their will in q manner
which will admit OF no mistake."e
To ascertain the feeling in this CITY
with regard to restoration Of monarchy
in Brazil, several distinguished exiles
were approached and asked for an ex-
preston OF their views. Senior Soares
de Souze, late President Of the Brazilian
Senate, and chief of the conservative
party, says he accepts the situation, and
believes the present form of government
irveversable. The Republic has come 10
stay. The change has been brought IN
such way that it is impossible for the
nation to 20 backward.
Senior Antonio De Soraiva, the states
man Dom Pedro commissioned to or
gan'ze the Cabinet in which General
De Fonseca had place, said: 1.-THE Re.
public is an accomplished fact. Moth.
ing remains for us 10 do but to submit to
the change and do all We can to main.
tain order and liberty. An attempt to
restore the monarch would bs uuwise
and unfortunate. In the actual condi.
ton OF affairs there is but one road to
follow. We should do nothing to EN-.
barsass the new regime. Order and
peace are assured, and it would be folly
to disturb the present condition Of
things" Senior Seraiva returns to Bra.
iii, where he will use his influence to
strain the ultra friends of Dom Pedro
from following n reactionary policy.

In many instances, to my knowledge the
elevation or degradation of a man or the
direct causes appertaining thereto, lies
within himself. No matter what the sur
rOundings of youth may be. unless he
starts out in life with good desires and high
aspirations. nothing good or great will
come of him.
We began life by laying a foundation.
Experience has taught us that this fOunda-
ton was insufficient in strength and dur
ability to bear up under the massive struct-
ure we attempted to build upon it, and the
result was. the foundation crumbled and the
structure fell. The foundation of build
ing shapes that building. Who ever saw an
architect lay foundation 6Ox4S east and
west and build his house 6OX4S north and
south? If you ever did see such man
you might well say that he had probably
escaped from some lunatic asylum.
Let us lay the foundation OF our future
lives by making good resolutions and build
ourselves up by acting out those resolutions.
Then our lives hereafter will be marked by
success. COLUMBUS"

Sunday Services.


The morning services were conducted by Rev.
M e. Murphy. His sermon was on the resurrec-
ton of Christ. and the faithfuness, constancy and
devotion of Mary Magdalene. Below is given
brief abstract of the sermon:
This is the day that commentaries the resurrec-
ton of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The
souls of the patriarchs were filled with unspeak-
able happiness at beholdng this day. day that
brought fulfIlment of former prophecies. His dis
ciples who had shared his sorrows were filed with
happy emotions. and to-day the whole Christian
world is filled with joy and happiness and songs
of praise and thanksgiving are heard throughout
the land.
While it is our duty to keep constantly in mind
our blessed Savior, want more particularly to
call your attention this morning to the penitent
Mary Magdalene. From the day of her forgive
from sin she became steadfast, faithful fol-
lower of the Lord. She stood at the foot of the
cross following the Savior through all his passion
The Sabbath day had scarcely dawned when she
at His tomb. neglecting even the duties
which the custom of her race and country de-
handed of her. She was forgetful of all danger,
she cared not for the darkness or the Roman sol.
diers. She did not hesitate but was ready and
willing for any sacrifice of self to show her love
and devotion to the Savior. This is what is re-
quired of us, prompt and unhesitating zeal in
following spiritual duties. But, too often men
forget the duties they owe the divine Master and
in their eagerness after wealth social position
they forget God and only 60 through the outward
forms of the church while their thoughts are on
worldly instead of divine things. The life of Mary
Magdalene irstructs to search after God with
a spirit filled with ardor, and it is also what God
demands of us.
You who are born in the image of God rise up
and be men Learn from this humble penitent
Mary to retain in your hearts and minds the good
ness OF God to you. Cry out to Him to blot out
your sins, and that heart of infinite love will re-.
