Communing With the Dead.

The tendency to commune with the
dead and to pray for them is strong
and universal, writes Rev. John f.
Mullany in Donahoe's for July. 1t
survives whatever systems or what
ever creeds men may invent for it's
suppression. Samuel johnson is pro-
fessedly a staunch Protestant, brist-
ling with prejudices, but delicate
moral sense enters the rugged man.
hood Of his nature. Instinctively he
seeks to commune with his departed
wife after the manner dear to the
Catholic heart but forbidden to the
Protestant. He keeps the anniversary
of her death and he composes beau
tiful prayer, full of Catholic senti-
ment, for the repose of her soul.
Tennyson has the same thought beau
tifully expressed in his "Morte d
Arthur" He makes this hero say:
"AIore things are wrought by prayer
Than this world dreams of. Where
fore. let thy voice
Rise like a fountain for me night and
day"
The great Cardinal Newman, before
he found rest within the bosom of the
Church, penned these beautiful lines:
Help Lord the souls which Thou
hast made,
The souls to Thee so dear,
In prison, for the debt unpaid
OF sins committed here"
Later in life when his wanderincs
in quest of truth We're over, he wrote
that exquisite poem, 'The Dream of
Gerontius," in which he causes the
angel to say to the soul it tenderly
consigns to the golden prison:
Farewell. but not forever. brother
dear,
BE brave and patient on thy bed of
sorrow:
Swiftly shall pass thy night of trial
here.
And I will come and wake thee ON
the morrow

STILL OPPOSED TO EMIGRATION.

While in the United States about
year ago. Mr.. Michael Davitt deliv-
cred several speeches OH Irish cmigra-
tion and showed how the Old Land
was bleeding to death by the con-
slant flight of the youth o. the nation
to foreign shores. Tie requested Irish
Americans to discourage the hegira in
every possible way, tn prevent the de-
population of Erin, and showed that
the best thing for the Irish people
was to stay in their native land and
get rooted in the soil.
On his return home Mr.. Davitt
spoke against the emigration of the
Irish to the United States and called
upon them to fight felonious landlord
ism and acquire possession of the land
which their Creator had intended for
their use and benefit. Despite every
effort that Davitt and others have
made to keep the Irish Mt home they
are still coming to the United States
in large numbers. During the pres
cnt year 29.13S Irish immigrants have
landed in America. That is more than
Germany has sent, though that en-
pirc is many times larger than Ire
land. What can be done to check
Irish emigration?
In our opinion, Irish emigration
,,,;1V ,oA Il ,ic1, x1,1,i1o nf
ireland can find no remuncrative en-
ployment in their own country. The
boys who are born on n small farm in
Ireland see nothing ahead of them but
a struggle for mere existence. If they
go into the cities they can find moth
ing to do. Some who are educated
may obtain civil service appointments
and some may join the constabulary
force or enter the British army and
navy, but the great majority of them
have no alternative but emigration to
the United States or the English col
onies. In recent speech in Kerry
Mr.. Davitt said:
A few weeks ago a resolution was
passed unanimously at Maynootl by
the Irish bishops in condemnation of
the continued drainage of the youth
of Ireland across the Atlantic, and an
able paper was read by a learned
priest. about which there had been n
great deal Of controversy and discus,
sion. Tic spoke without any disrc-
spcct on that question that day. The
hierarchy of Ireland might meet in
Maynooth every year and pass clo-
Qucnt resolutions till the Angel Ga
bricl came with his trumpet and sum-
moncd them to the Valley of Jcho-
saphat without stirring finger of
English legislation in the direction of
stopping the drainage of our people
from Ireland. 1t all amounted to the
expression Of a pious opinion. What
he (Mr. Davith respectfully suggested
to the bishops OF Ir,land-who. Of
course We're as wishful for the pros
petty and peace Of Ireland as they
were-was tllnt they should appoint
a committcgj composed of competent
men to cross the Atlantic and COM
mence an inquiry in the United
States MS to what happened to the
boys and girls who left ireland for
that great Republic. Let them begin
at New York and in the large cities

M. Combes, the premier of France,
was never ordained to the priesthood,
but he studied for the ministry. He
is a physician and for some years act
ed as college professor. In 1895 he
became minister of public instruction
and during his term of Office showed
vigorous hostility to clericalism. He
was recently appointed prime minister

Catholic France today on account of
enforcing the law regulating the re-
