A Remarkable Nun.

The Catholics of England are mourn
/ ing the death of a remarkable woman,
Mother Genevieve Dupuis. foundress of
the congregation Of the Sisters of Char
! ity of st. Paul the Apostle, who passed
away at the mother-house of the order,
near Birmingham, Sept %.
| Mother Genevieve was in the ninety
| first year of her age. and the SEVENTEEN
of her religious life. She was active in
every detail of the management of her
order until a year ago, when her health
began to fail. She was a French
woman by birth, going TO England in
1S47, at the request of Cardinal Wise
man, who wished her to inaugurate in
England the work that had been so SUI
cessfully carried on by her order in
France. They are principally engaged
in teaching and in caring for the or
phanS.
From the two eligious whom Mother
Genevieve brought with her from
France, the community has grown to
more than 500 members, with ffty-two
branch houses. Mother Genevieve did
not confine her energies to her OWE,
community, but extended them to all in
distress.
Many young men who had not the
means to study for the priesthood she
assisted with funds. and many good
priests have to thank Mother Genevieve
Dupuis for having sent them to college
and paying for their education. The
numberless orphans to whom she be-
came more than a mother is alone

good, old sanity mother for having as

There is a man in every parish who
having no family, belongs to family
that is Worldwide: who is called in, as
a witness, a counsellor, and an actor
in all the most important affairs of
civil life. No one comes into the world
or goes hence without his ministra-
tions. He takes the child from the
arms of his mother and parts with it
only at the grave. He blesses and con-
socrates the cradle. the bridal cham
Der, the bed of death and the bier. He
is one whom innocent children grow to
love, to Venerate and to reverence;
whom even those who know him not
salute as father; at whose feet Chris
tians fall down and lay bare the inmost
thoughts of their souls and weep their
most sacred tears. He is one whose
mission it is TO console the afflicted
and soften the pains of body and soul
who is an Intermediary between the
aftiuent and the INDECENT; to whose
door come alike the rich and the poor
the rich to give aims in secret and
the poor to receive them without blush
ing. He belongs to no special class,
because he belongs equally to ALTO
the lower by his poverty, and not in
frequently by his humble birth: to the
upper by his culture and his knowledge.
and by the elevated sentiments which
a religion itself all charity inspires and
imposes. He is one, in fine, who knows
all. has right to speak unreservedly
and whose speech, inspired from on
high, falls on the minds and hearts of
all with the authority of one who is
divinely sent, and with the constraining
power of one who has an unclouded
faith.
Such is the parish priest, than whom
no one has a greater opportunity for
good or power for evil accordingly as
he fulflls or fails to recognize his
mission among men,

TESTIMONY OF A MINISTER.
Experience in Missionary Fields That
Removed Prejudices.

Rev. DR.. Henry NJ. Field. editor Of
the New York Evangelist" is a well
known Presbyterian minister. Some
time ago he wrote as follows in his
paper:
When I first went abroad fifty years
ago il was with all the prejudices of a
Puritan against Romanism Catholic
ity) in every form nor was | captiVated
in Rome during the Holy week. But
alongside of all this pomp and splen-
dor were innumerable institutions for
the poor and the sick, and for every
form of suffering humanity. Coming
up from Italy 1 had to cross the Alps,
and having an American friend as a
companion we walked over the SimplOn
Pass. on the very top of which is the
hospice. where the monks spend their
lives amid eternal SHOWS that they may
rescue lost travellers. One night We
slept in the convent. and when in the
morning We parted from our kind hosts,
7 could rot feel that we We're in a po-
Fition to compare ourselves with them
as to which were the better Christians.
such devotion l have found all over
the world. Away off on the other side
OF the globe, coming from the island of
Java to Singapore. the most southern
point in Asia / observed sitting on the
upper deck a Catholic priest. and. ap-
preaching him as a stranger, [ spoke to
him in French, asking the question
which I would have been the first to
address to an American missionary.
When are you going to return home"
10 which ! received an answer which
never had before: 'Jamaisi'-Never,
Never! He had given his life to the
service of the church and of his divine
master For that he had come to the
far-off Malayan Archipelago. and here
he would die, perhaps uttering with his
last breath the triumphant words of
Francis Xavier: In te Domino speravi:
non confundar I'm eternumi' In Thee,
Q Lord have l trusted, l shall never
be cOnfuunded.'
I'm India I heard reports everywhere
Of the self-deniaI OF the Catholic mis-
sionaries: how they lived among the
poorest of the people, going barefoot,
lying down TO sleep in their mud huts,
putting themselves on the plane Of the
Hindos Of the lowest caste, that they
might save some: and never did real
lie the omnipTesence of the Catholic
church as when I heard tbs ringing
OF the convent bell amid the SHOWS
Of the Himalyas.
Tt may be said shat this devotion is
shown only on distant missionary fields,
but that when the priests came into
better quarters and have the comforts
and luxuries Of civilizati ton, they are
full Of pride and ambition, and always
on the lookout for opportunities to
work upon the supersutions of the ig
norant, and extend the power of the
church. SO it may be with some, but

Church
Universal

large cities during the past summer
was the result of eating green cherries
which had been subjected to an acid
bath in order to give the appearance
of ripeness. AS with eatables so with
drinkables Pure wine in particular
has become a positive rarity. A priest
whose supply of altar wine had run
out applied some time ago to a trusted
friend, in the employ of a merchant
who deals largely in domestic and i'm
ported liquors, for a small quantity of
pure wine, explaining that it was for
use at Mass. His establishment may
| be imagined when the clerk told him,
soto voce, that there was not a bottle
of wine in the whole establishment that
he would recommend for the purpose.
1t was no surprise to us when, a few
years ago a recommendation came
from Rome urging that extra precau-
tions be taken TO secure suitable wine
for the Holy Sacrifice. 1t is not enough
nowadays to know the person from
whom altar wine is purchased: one
must know by whom it is made. 1t was
with a view TO remove all grounds for

portance mat the Blsncp Of Rochester
