JOAN OF ARC.

The small French town Saint Pierre-le-
Moutier famous for its capture by Joan
of Arc shortly before the latters death on
the stake by the hands of the English in
Rouen, May 80, 1431, recently addressed
request for a contribution toward the
monument to be raised there in honor of
the Maid of Orleans 10 the city council OF
Journal, formerly French, now Bel
gian town. In explanation OF this petition,
the Marie OF st. Pierre recalled the friend
ly relations that had existed between
Journal and Joan of Arc during the fight
against the foreign invaders. The good
aldermen of the Belgian town, however.
being totally unacquainted with this his
torical fact. at once made an effort to as
certain the truth, and rummaged the ar
chives of the city. The result was the dis
covery of an original letter written by the
Maid of Orleans TO the citizens of Tour
mai. which. in itsl English version from
the old French text, is the following:
Noble and loyal Frenchmen of the city
of Journal. the Maid herewith informs
you that within week she has driven the
English from all places they were hold
ing on the banks of the Loire, the attacks
and other sorts of combat resulting in
MANY being killed and taken prisoners.
She has routed them in battle. and thinks
that Count Suffolk, his brother Jean Poie'
Sir Talbot, Sir d'Escalles and Messire
John Falstaff, as well as many other
knights and captains have been captured
while Count Suffolk's brother and Glas-
das have been killed. Be brave, faithful
Frenchmen, l entreat You. and beg and
demand of you that you may all be ready
to go to the coronation of the noble King
Charles TO Rheims, whittier we shall re-
sort shortly. Come to meet us when you
hear of our approach. L recommend you
to God. who may protect you and grant
you His grace for having been able to de-
fend the cause of France.

orired. otherwise they would cause
confusion because in that bark every
thing IS regulated in accordance with
the rules of order, and appropriate du-
tfas are assigned to all To maintain
the contrary is to despise the ordt-
nance of Jesus Christ. Our Divine
Savior did not clothe civil governments
with the mission of preaching the truth
and teaching the nations: He allotted
this task to Peter and to the other
Apostles: nor did He seek to secure
for them the good will of temporal
rulers; He bade them go to the utter
most bounds of the earth in virtue OF
that IimftIeag power which was given
Him by His Father in Heaven. All
power is given me in Heaven and on
Earth: going, therefore, teach ye all
nations"
They who teach otherwise. either do
not believe in the promise made By
Christ that He and the Holy Ghost
would abide with His Church forever.

com.

Refutation. When the Pope ad-
dresses the Christian world by means
of Letters Apostolic, he sometimes in
culcates a truth. sometimes enjoins the
performance of an external act that
may POSSIBLE conflict with the ordi-
nances by which rulers provide for the
temporal welfare of their subjects. In
such cases the supreme ruler of the
Church does not desire to secure spir-
itual advantages at the expense OF an
unnecessary obstruction of the social
or political machinery Hence it Is
that the Roman Pontiffs have fire.
quently entered into arrangements with
princes with a view of securing q due
observance of their own instructions
without detriment to the interests of
others. And although it has never been
conceded that Catholic governments
have of themselves any right to dis
pute pontificiaI DEGREES, still whenever
they manifested a desire to treat with
the Pope, as children with their father,
they have always found him most in
dulgent and ready to instruct the
Bishops TO suspend the execution of
those DEGREES until such time as they
could arrive at an understanding with
the civil power and thus avoid all pos
sibiIity of collision. 1t has been GUS
tomary to make these concessions to
| Catholic princes but only in relation to
| those instructions which refer to pure
| " external acts and the immediate
execution of which might have q ten
dency to disturb public order in those
matters lying directly and properly in

New York, April although the
missionary spirit is spreading day by
day among our people and has already
in many quarters gathered sufficient
strength to turn the tide of Indifferent
ism, some of us fail to realize the OPP
portunitfes open to our efforts and
crying needs that only our energetic
zeal can alleviate. Among the letters
that pour in upon the management of
the Catholic Missionary Union, many
an urgent call for the dissemination OF
the truth can be ais yet only partially
answered. A jealous Western priest
in whom the burning desire to spread
the truth has not been diminished by
the routine duties Of his parish writes
earnestly of the millions of fallen
away" Catholics that he meets on
every side, and makes a stirring claim
upon our active determination to re-
cover them. Our Catholic people can
no longer remain Indifferent to this
glorious duty The Catholic Mission

ouicly action to reclaim the Italians and
their children whom the Protestant
Episcopal Church is everywhere Sc
ducing from the Faith That body is
alive to the possibilities presented in
the future of our Italian immigrants
and is lavishing money upon them
while we remain idle. Listen to this
news LAS an instance, a short time ago
there were no Italians heard of in this
town. Now there are a great number
and many are now Protestants and go
to their Protestant Episcopal Church.
For the Italians here the Protestant
Missionary Society educated an Italian
in Rome ordained him there and sent
him out to us to look after the Italians
who might come from Italy. He
dresses and appears as much as posi-
bic like a Catholic priest, and the
Italians are pleased that he speaks
their language and takes such an in
terst in their welfore. They should
have italian priests. There are plenty
of them in Italy; why are not Catholics
as earnest as Pedestrians in looking
after these future Americans? I hope
something will be done" 1t rests with
the friends of the Catholic Missionary
Union to say what shall be done.
