CONCERNING LOYALTY.

some effusions on American patriotism
and loyalty to our institutions which fill
the columns of the Orange and Know
Nothing publications which have sprung
up like mushrooms in this country dur
ing the past few years. The blatant
patriots with axes to grind who conduct
these publications and 60 around pro-
claiming themselves superior to every
one else in the article of patriotism and
loyalty to American institutions need
evidently to be we'll watched, for it is an
old and true saying, first uttered by DR..
johnson, that patriotism is the last
refuge of sooundrels,' and as for loyalty,
they do not seem to realize what It means.
The Orangemen of Ireland and Canada
have always claimed monopoly of 10y
atty for the British throne and constitu-
ton, but their conduct on various occa-
sions in those countries cursed by their
presence is sufficient proof that they dis
regard the fidelity which they owe to the
law, and which, according to Trench,
constitutes the very essence of loyalty.
Why the Orangemen who are temporary
soiourners in the United States should
have the effrontery Of questioning the
loyalty Of Catholics to this republic is
something ne cannot understand. They
cannot become citizens Of the United
States unless they peuure themselves,
for their first allegiance is due to the

The North says: Our good friend THE
IRISH STANDARD expresses surprise at
the appreciative estimate OF Pope Leo
XIII. given in a recent issue OF The
North. Now there is nothing surprising
in that at all. We are ever mindful OF
the good work and wisdom OF individual
Roman Catholics. We are ready to
recognize their merits, but this does not
prevent us from pointing out the dang
ers to spiritual liberty ana popular edu-
cation lurking in the robes of the Roman
Pope and hierarchy. While admirlng
Pope Leo for his many fine qualities, for
his efforts in behalf of leading social
questions OF the day, we are thoroughly
awake to the ever grasping tendencies
and the encroachments of the church OF
which he is the head. We may like him,
but in the light of history and with Ro-
man Catholicism of modern times living
and active before us, we do not like his
church.

the stability and perpetuity of civil vir-

people cannot fail to see that the Catho-
lie Church, which upholds authority and
law, apart from her divine mission, is the
most conservative factor in sustaining
and maintaining our political institu-
tions."

DR.. j. M. RICE spent six months OF last
year in visiting the public schools of
thirty-six cities of the United States in
order to form an idea of the public school
system of the country. The results of
his observations appeared in series of
articles in the Forum, and now he has
published them in book form. He con-
dennis the methods of teaching employed
in the schools of New York, Chicago,
Milwaukee, st. Louis, Cincinnati, Buffalo
and Baltimore, and says they are
mechanical schools that aim to do little,
if anything, beyond crowding the rem
ory of the pupils with certain number
of cut-and .driel facts. He also con-
dennis the Anticipated method used in
the Boston primary schools, and on the
whole his criticism of the public school
system of education throughout the
country is anything bat complimentary.
There are two cities, however, with
whose schools DR.. Rice was highly
pleased. He warmly praises the Mime
apolis and st. Paul schools. The super.
intendents and teachers Of the Twin
City schools have cause to feel proud of
the eulogium passed IN their methods OF
teaching by such competent critic.

should have been it's members by the
failure of the Church in the early his
tory of the country to provide for it's i'm

THE POPE AND JEFF. DAVIS.

The enemies of Catholic1ty in these
United States of America have of late
years been assiduously circulating false
charges against the loyalty of Roman
Catholics to our republican institutions
In support of their allegations they say
that during the Civil War the Southern
Confederacy appealed to the crowned
heads of Europe to recognize the seces
sionists as belligeren- s, and after the
rebel commissioners had vainly tried to
secure any recognition or sympathy from
the great European powers they finally
succeeded in getting a letter from Pope
Plus TX, who was then civil ruler, adj
dressed to Jefferson Davis, the arch rebel,
expressing sympathy With his cause and
praying that God would aid him in dis
rupting the Union. The Pope did write
a letter to jeff. Davis apprising him OF
the fact that the gentlemen sent by him
to Rome had visited him and given BIN
the letter they CARRIED from his ''excel'
lsncy," and in polite language he thanked
Jeff. Davis for his courtesy and called
him ssillustrious and honorable SIR and
said it was gratifying to him to recognize,
not the belligerency of the Confederate
states, but that "you and your people are
animated by the same desire for peace
and tranquility which he himself had
go earnestly inculcated in letter TO
Archbishop Hughes, of New York, and
Archbishop Lynch. OF New Orleans. The
Pope further said that he would continue
to pray that God would pour out the
spirit of Christian love and peace rpon
"all the people of America" and that the
same most merciful Lord would illumine
his 'excellency" with the light OF His dl-
vine grace. That is the head and front
of the Popes offending, and the ennis
saries of sectarian prejudice are trying
to make political capital out of it!
In the October issue of the North
American Review, John B'gelow writes

shows the diplomatic tact displayed by
Plus TX of happy memory in his letter to
jeff. Davis and in his reception OF the
rebel peace commissioners who visited
him at the Vatican. He gives the cor
respondence of Dudley Mann with Judah
Benjamin, encouragement OF the Con-
federste states, in reference to his inter,
views with the Pope, and though Mann
thought it great achievement to have
received a letter from the Pope in reply
to the one from JEFF. DAVIS, Mr.. Bigelow
says that Benjamin thought it of little
Significance, as he "knew the difference
between formula of politeness and an
international engagement" We COM
mend the perusal Of this interesting
article in the North American Review to
all who desire to know the true facts in
the relations of Pope Plus TX. with the
slaye-holding Confederacy. We assure
the anti Catholic fanatics that they will
not extract much pleasure from the
article of Mr.. Bigelow.

Ireland, Bishop McGolrick, of Duluth,

The archbishop delivered a character

opinion could control legislatures in
favor Of the temperance cause. Sitting

there is a chapter on ''Romanism' show
ing it to be one of the great perils Of this
republic. The book had an immense
sale few years ago and was frequently
quoted as an authority against the Catho-
lie Church in the West, but since the
Vail-Burgess debate il this city it has
fallen into disrepute. DR.. Strong had
the temerity of undertaking the foolish
task of giving an authentic reference for
the forged quotation attributed to Lafay-
cite, but Mr.. Vail silenced him, and his
book is no longer given 90 an authority,

demagogues as the irreverent Go Lightly
