LONG LIVE THE POPE.

The words of the universal Catholic
hymn, composed by Rev: Hugh r
Henry, Lit. Doc, of Overlook semi.
nary, have been set to music by the
Rev. DR.. H. G.. Gauss, a recognized
musician, and it is expected that the
hymn will be sung in every Catholic
community the world over within a
short time. Tne hymn fills a long
felt need and fills it admirably. The
lyric has been already translated into
g. score of languages. Within the
next two or three weeks this hymn
will form a feature of the congrega.
tional singing in our own Cathedral of
the Blessed Sacrament. The words
follow:
Long live the Pope! His praises
sound
Again and yet again:
His rule is over space and time;
Fills throne the hearts of men:
All hail! the Shepherd-King of Rome,
The theme of loving song:
Let all the earth his glory sing,
And heav'n the strain prolong-
Let all the earth his glory sing,
And heav'n the strain prolong.
Beleagured by the foes of earth,
Beset by hosts of hell,
He guards the royal flock Of Christ,
A watchful sentinel;
And yet, amid the din and strife,
The clash of mace and sword,~
He bears alone the shepherd.stafr,
This champion of the Lord,
He bears alone the shepherd-staff,
This champion of the Lord.
Ills signet is the Fisherman's,
No sceptre does he bear;
In meek and lowly majesty
He rules from Peters Chair:
And yet from ev'ry tribe and tongue
From ev'ry cline and zone,
Three hundred million voices sing,
The glory of his throne
Three hundred million voices sing.
The glory of his throne.
Then raise the chant, with heart and
voice,
In church and school and home;
Long live the Shepherd of the Flock!
Long live the Pope of Rome!"
Almighty Father, bless his work,
Protect him in his ways.
Receive his prayers, fulfill his hopes
And grant him length Of days."
Receive his prayers. fulfil his hopes
::And grant him length of days."

That mild and gentle sway!"
What have ye done for Ireland?
Are all her sufferings past?
Have ye unloosed her CALLING chains:
And set ler free at last:
Or do you with Draconic laws =
And fetters bind her fast?

Is she submissive to your sway? =
Is she upheld by fears? a
Or is she independent, now, y ~
AS Hungary appears?
What have ye done for Ireland?
Have you not laid aside
The axe, the rope, and dungeon-keep
AS blots upon your pride?
Have you not tried. as wise men ought
To make her satisfied?
What have ye done for Ireland?
Those sixty years or more?
Is she more happy with your laws
Than with her own before?
If not, did you, like honest men,
Her Parliament restore?
What have ye done for Ireland? :
Is all experience vain?
Do you persist to rule her still
With halter, sword and chain?
Do you pretend. while the Union lasts
That peace you can maintain?
What have ye done for Neland?
With every means at hand
To make her prosperous and tree
Why fail to understand,
That Irish laws, and they alone,
Should rule the Irish land?

Miss Bingham has proved hat a ire
