ship was dated as from about the
year 1875, but Dom Pohier's discov-
cry disprOves such an ascriptiOn. The
tune was borrowed from Christie, Re
demptor omnium. Another hymn for
the feast of the Most Holy Name of
Jesus-a feast of English origin-is
EXultet corpraecordus, the earliest
copy of which is to be found in the
Trim Breviary, as early fifteenth CEN
fury office book belonging to st. Mary
Abbey, Trim, County Meath, now in
the library of Trinity college, Dublin.
DreceS considers that this hymn was
specially written for the feast, and it
was printed in 1893 1t is as we'll to
add that st. Bernards claim to the
hymn Salve caput cruentatum is not
sufficiently established, and it cannot
be traced earlier than the fourteenth
century. Nor can the beautiful Com
pin hymn, Salve Regina, be ascribed
to the founder of ClairvauX, as it is
to be met with in manuscripts of the
year 1890. 1t was written and COM
posed by Hermanus Contractus, and
it is to be found, with the music, in a
Durham manuscript of the year 1900.
"HymnOlogists are practically
agreed in crediting the Dies Irae to
Thomas of Celano, o. F. NJ, although
the verse Liberia me Domino is to be
met with in a Bodleian manuscript
of the tenth century. while the La
crymosa is in a Karlsruhe manuscript,
written circa 1900. They are also
agreed as to the authorship of the
Stabat Mater, namely, by Jocopone of
Todi, o. F. NJ. Another great Fran
ciscan poet was st. Bonaventure,
whose obit at Paris is chronicled in
1894. To Tisserand is due the joyful
Easter hymn, o Fill ct filiae; and

contemporary date.
MANY non-Catholic writer's persist
in the attribution of much of the ear
ly sixteenth-century German hymno-
dy to the rising Lutheron influence,
but it has now been amply proved
that the hymns of the Hussites and of
the Bohemian brethren are by no
means original, many of them being
merely translations from the Latin
adapted to old plain chant melodies.

PERMANENCE OF UNITED STATES
ASSURED.

New York, Oct. 1S.-BefOre sailing
for Rome today on the Kronprinzessin
Cecilie, Cardinal Vincenzo Vannutelli,
who was the papal legate to the Eu-
charistlc congress recently held in
Montreal issued this farewell state
ment:
1 have found here a republic that is
one in reality-not merely in name,
like most of the republics of Europe
1t has been most refreshing and in
spring to come in touch with the
spirit of Christian justice and charity
that influenced the founders of your
institutions and that at present domi-
mates their development and predes-
tines, l am confident, their glorious
future. Within a few weeks 1 have
travelled through the large cities of
the west and east, and everywhere [
have witnessed the greatest possible
reverence for religion and respect for
authority-both now sadly lacking in
some Of the old countries of Europe.
The permanency of your republic is
assured, if recognition of God and ODE
dience to authority continue to exer-
else their benign influence on Ameri-
can life.
Naturally 1 was especially con-
cerned with the progress of the Cath
Ollie church in the United States The
evidences have seen of the marvel
Gus growth of the church in this coun-
try have impressed me most profound
ly. Here, unhampered by hostile
legislation, and free to work out her
mission, the church, an infant in years,
shows all the vitality and strength of
a giant. l am convinced that the
church is contributing in large meas
ure to the upbuilding of the nation;
and if she continues to enjoy the lib
erty she now possesses she will do still
greater things in the future for the
welfare of the country; her influence
makes for upright citizenship and the
stability of government
Il know that your extraordinary ma
terial wealth and prosperity have
tendency to deaden the finer feelings
of the soul and the higher instincts of
the mind: because commercialism is
by its very nature apt to be baneful
in its influence on culture. Yet I could
not avoid observing the evidences of
your deep interest in religion, art and
learning. as shown in your monu-
mental buildings, your museums, your
libraries, your beautiful churches
both Protestant and Catholic"

DESoLATION.

Il is an awful thing to be alone. and
yet a holy man once said that he was
never so much alone as when mingling
with the sons of men. There is. how
ever. desolation and there is spiritual
desolation. and both are sad with a
sense Of loneliness. Human desola-
ton ofttimes comes through no fault
of ones own, but spiritual desolation
may always be attributed in one or
other way to ones self. with desola-
ton is the world made desolate," says
the Psalmist, because no one think
eth in his heart There may be
pleasure in the wording, but it is
false and disappointing, because it
does not proceed from the right source
which is God, the fount of all good
The yotaTy Of this world drinks in
large draughts of the intoxicating
JOYS of the world only to find the cup
filled with the dregs of sorrow and
Temorse. He has many friends in the
heyday of his prosperity, but few when
adversely overtakes him. His mind
is a blank as regards all religious
truth. and his heart is far away from
anything like God and the things of
eternal life. And so he is desolate
and despatring. and he fears for the
worst in the gloom and desperation
that are settling down upon him. Re
ligiOn is the requisite of the soul, for
without union with his Creator, man
cannot be happy-the mind, heart and
win all must center in God, if they are
TO perform their functions right and
find JOY in the exercise of them. They
who serve God are the only happy
ones, for He repays them with His
love. Their hearts are at peace, as
God promised they would be, and their
souls are JOYFUL. for they are realizing
the divine sweetness. They are not
like the worldlings bearing the heavy
yoke Of the worlds demands, slaves to
SIN and danger of folly, but they are
carrying the sweet yoke of the Lord,
and are free with the freedom of the
children Of God. Good occupation is
generally a bar to WEAKNESS from a
human standpoint. 1t is always from a
a spiritual one. The idle in the world
know no peace. and the spiritually
sothfuI and without JOY Of ay kind.
There is desolation of soul betimes
even 10 the hottest and the best, but it
comes not from God, but from self,

AN IMPOVERISHED POET.

Henry Timrod, in his time called
"the finest poet the south has pro-
duced," suffered severely in his for
tunes in the destruction of Columbia,
S. c., during the war. In his letters
to his friend, the poet Hayne, says the
author of Representative Southern
Poets" there is a grim humor in his
description of his penniless condition.
In one letter he writes:
I'VE have lived for a long period.
and are still living, on the proceeds
of the gradual sale of furniture and
silver plate. we have-let me see,
yes we have already eaten two silver
pitchers, one or two dozen silver
forks, several sofas, innumerable
chairs and a huge bedstead
LAS for supporting myself and
large family. wife, mother, sister and
nieces, by literary work, it's utterly
preposterous. Little Jack Horner,
who sang for his supper and got his
plum cake, was far more lucky min
strel than 1 am. To confess the truth

INTO THE ETERNAL H..
(From Father Lamberrs Notes on
IngprSOll -

tfrom Father Lambert's Notes on
Ingersoll."
To those who see in mans nature
and destiny nothing higher than that
Of the grasshopper or the potato-bug,
who believe that mans life ends with
the death or decomposition of his
outer shell, there must be something
lnexpllcable in their sufferings of this
life.
But to the Christian who looks upon
this life ana its vicissitudes as a mere
phase OF mans immortal career. who
considers this world of time as the
womb of the eternal years, the suf-
ferlngs of this life are but the tenn
porary Inconvenience Of the weary
traveller on his homeward voyage
Their weight is lightened and their
sharpness blunted by the thought of
home with its comforts and its rest.
He suffers with patience and resigna-
ton to the will of his eternal Father.
with the consoling hope that when he
is freed from the body of his death
he Will pass into the eternal day where
death and pain are known no more
forever Buoyed up by faith and hope
he says in his inmost soul
Beyond the parting the meeting I
shall be soon:
Beyond the farewell and the greeting,
Beyond the pulses fever beating
| shall be soon
Beyond the frost chain and the fever
| shall be soon;
Beyond the rock waste and the river.
Beyond the ever and the never,
I shall be soon.
Love, rest and home!
Sweet home!

wonderful art treasures of the Vatican
TO be dispersed
Since the question has been raised,
1t is well to recall the work that the
Popes have done consistently for the
promotion of art. If there is any one
thing that the Popes are entitled to,
it is surely the art collection of the
Vatican-for the art of the entire
world owes to the Popes a debt that
can never be paid and that is scarcely
appreciated.
The Catholic church, and especially
the individual Popes, one after the
other, have developed great artists,
helped them financially and with adj
vice and constant encouragement.
The greatest geniuses, like Michael
Angelo, and the men of lesser power,
have flourished under the protection
of the Popes.
When ignorant semi-barbarism
cared nothing for art and would have
destroyed its labors, the Popes were
the protectors of art and literature
the world ought to know that
And some of the ignorant might
know also that the Popes were the
founders and protectors of the uni
Versities-the seats of learning of the
world-centuries ago, when other rul-
ers were barbarians, and when only
the power of the Popes, commanding
special protection and special privi-
leges for students, made study posi-
BILE.
The papacy offers freely to the

succeeding generations and to inspire
