English government recognizes their
services and honors with the royal
favors their great men. And yet DR.,
Burrell stoops to take up the low ribald
mob cry, beware of the Jesuits." Why
did he not bring forward the old
calumny so often Numbered from Pro-
testant pulpits: .sThe Jesuits teach
that it is lawful to do evil provided good
may result" His hearers can no longer
be caught by this exploded falseho0d,
sohe worldlywise plays unto their pre-
judice another lie-the so-called say
ing of Lafayette. DR.. Burrell must
indeed be shut up in the egg
of hard shell Presbyterianism
if he can believe that Lafayette ever
uttered such words, and he must, more
over, believe his audience extremely
ignorant if he thinks he can get sensl-
BILE men to swallow such gigantic
plums. SPAN, Austria, Italy, Dr.. Bur
rell describes as seen through Presby-
terrain spectacles. What Catholic
works has he read on the state of So
ciety in Spain? Does he consider Italy
improved in morals since the pope was
deprived of his temperatures? Who but
the Catholic Center party has been the
bnlwark OF liberty in Germany? Has
he considered the tremendous differ
ence in holy purity in favor of Catholic
Ireland as against the "black PreSby-
terrain North" or Presbyterian Scotland?
Here are the latest figures from Null
hall, 1880:
Scotland, go illegitimate per 1000
births.
England, As illegitimate per 1000
births.
Ireland, % lllegitimate per 1000
births.
In Wigtonshire, in Scotland, the pro-
portion is $50 illegitimate to every LOCO
births, while in Catholic TIpperary it is
six to the thousand. On this subject
read the "MemorandumS of Ireland" by
the Protestant DR.. Forbes, and James
Anthony Froude's lecture in New York,
reported In the Times of that city Nov.
16, 1872.
Now for the education question. In
the English civil service and prize ex-
aminations, who are year after year
taking the highest places and the first
prizes? Irish and English young men
and women taught by the Jesults
and the Christian Brothers, OF in the
schools of the Catholic sisters. This
fact has so impressed Protestant
statesman, Lord Randolph Churchill,
that in the house of commons, and in
letters to the Times, he repeatedly de-
mands for Catholic schools government
aid. Why are these truths hidden from
American PrOteStantS, and instead
every effort made to throw between
them and Catholic truth clouds of big
otry. ''Render to Caesar what are
Caesars, to God what are Gods" But
if the commands clash? "God is to be
obeyed rather than man." The apos-
ties and their successors disObeyed
Caesar, and suffered for it death rather
than suffer death eternal. Jesus was
denounced as an enemy of the state.
Hear the words of the Jewish priests
against him, and compare them with the
pulpit denunciations against the Catho-
lie church: ''If we let him alone so, all
will believe in him, and the Romans
will come and take away our place and
our nation John XII, 48. Catholic
blood and Catholic genius had their
place in building up our republic ana
maintaining it against all enemies.
When the civil war arose. amongst the
thousands of priests who rushed to the
front to care for and comfort the sol
dier we have yet amongst US Arch
bishop Ireland and the venerable
Domini can, Father Egan, of Minneapo-
lis. Where was DR.. BurreD then?
While Protestant England was destroy
ing our commerce. and doing everything
possible to destroy the republic; who
fought for union on many bloody,
field? The Irish and German and
American Catholic. But forget Kear-
ney's name, and Sheridan's glorieS and
Meagher's courage. Oh, breathe not
their names, nor the glorious names of
hundreds of thousands whom any ma
ton would delight to honor, because
DR.. Burrell has ex cathedra declared
that Catholicity, which they held dearer
than life, is opposed to the state.
