iart Annual Ordination at st. Mary's Diocesan corerSeminary. gone

The ingathering of the pristine fruits of this bronascent institution, at whose dedication, onthe 19th of last December, most of our readerswill remember to have had the pleasure ofamisting, it was our happiness to witness onthe mornings of WednesdAy, Friday and Sat-

rday last. For the perusal of the few of yokeoar Catholic population who were deterred. bMahAom participating in that imposing ceremony,no less than for that of those to whom the the

name of St. Mary's Diooesan Seminary may Fortbode somewhat of mystery, we propoe giv- littleaig, as briefly as possible, the few details

we could glean of its early history, Thoughthe idea of establishing a Diocesan Seminary, le,adjacent to the Archbishopric, in which young themenon might be trained fir the laborious dutiesof the sacred ministry, under their own i- wre

mediate superintendence, had been long the

eherished hope of the last two sainted Prelatesof this time-honored Bee, yet it was reservedfor the present illustrious Incumbent to sur- withmount the many obstacles which thwarted therealization of his no 1es energetic predecessors'darling scheme, but which vanished before mhis dauntless soul. Among the many otherardonus labors whose execution ArchbishopPerche entrusted to the zeal of his indefati-gable Administrator on the eve of his depart-

are for the Eternal City, there was none to witwhich he attached greater importance, or f V

which he commended more to his untiringvigilance than the completion of the DiocesanSeminary. The last object which, perhaps, at- Augtracted the Archbishop's eye, as his archiepis- Acopal mansion was fast finking from his view,was the crumbling walls of St. Mary's Church, Barat whos modest altar had knelt many a fellow dallaborer, moot of whom became the victims of Moytheir self-sacrifice, and whose remains now L'smoulders in alien earth, while on the seared Barand scanty looks of the few who remain Time's Phoar is too fast gathering, warning them Barof their near approach to that mysteriousland, over whose immortal denisens TD)eath holds no sway. With what min- tin

gled feelings, then, of joy and surprise icnmust not the Archbishop, on the morning after

his arrival, have looked on the testefolly laid- to i

eot garden which now ornaments the rear of A'fhis residence, hearing on the one side the iloud laugh of the playful children of St. ertoNary's Parochial School, while beholding onthe other the towering walls of his DiocesanSeminary proadly rearing themselves aloft andcrowning the labyrinth which encircles hispalatial homel Truly must he then havefelt, as we feel satisfied he did, how well andhow faithfully his most ardent wisheshad been than

ealized, and wellmighthe have enlogised their Gdistutereated ilnterpreter as did the returning lelord the faithtil steward: "Well dose, thou good MrmuIlfaitVa serant," etc. A brilliant and cloud-less noonday do we anticipate for an institu.- '

metLong may its venerable Sounder and his worthy Bcolleague, husband its erXberant fruits andsend forth from its sp•ious halls countles Masesionaries, the soadness of whose attain- o

mento, and the ardor of whole seal, we feelassured from what .w ba hs seen, will be innowie interior to thora oTheir eatemned 5t

redlecesors who have ~ehlad themselves

in the hearts of. their devotedore and whose sterling virtues have madetheir names household words in every hamletof Louaslane.

But to return to the sebjdept in hand--theordinations. On Wednesday were coactrredTonsure, Minor Orders and Subdeasonship.Tonsure, which conodsts in the cropping of thehair, as indicative" of worldly renunciation,and in the receipt of the eoclesiastical habit,thopgh not of itself an order, yet is not, asmany would have us suppose, a mere "monkaishinvention," but of Apostollo institution, as ispatent from the fact of its numbering amongthe deoretals of Anacletus, the third successorof St. Peter. Next followed the four MinorOrders, the receipt of which entitled the re-cipient to the exercise of the various oflces ofLector, Porter, Exoreist, Acolyte,. and whoseapostolic origin few would have the hardi-hood to gainsay. These being-conferred, sixyoung men, vested in alb, cincture and amiceo,with dalmaties, and maniples on their leftarms, ranged themselves in front of the.altar,where they listened with riveted attention tothe dread monition of the'ordaining prelate,the substance of whlh- we translate froma ceremonial, kindly furnished us on theoccasion: "Dearly beloved children, who arenow about to be raised to the sacred order ofSubdeaconate, well doth it behoove you toponder over again and again, and weigl3 witheare, the awful responsibility which to-day, ofyour own free will and choice, you seek at myhands. Thus far were you free, and was it,permitted you, aooording to your own judg-ment, to give yourself up to a secular avoca-tion, but once that you shall have receivedthis order no longer will it be lawful for you toretrace yeur steps, and divest yourselves of Itsonus, nay rather, it shall henceforth be yoursto serve perpetually your God, to enter into asublime Intercohrse with Him, and, He aiding,to lead a life of angelio celibacy, and to be for-ever bondmen in the ministry of His Church.Hence, while time remains, reflect, and iffterserious consideration, you still persevere inyour holy resolve, advance hither in the nameof the Lord." At these words adl, im-pelled by the same quickening spirit, took theirrevocable step, and cast themselves prostratebefore that tabernacle in which their God wasenshrined, and there renounced forever thatworld from which they had thus voluntarilyestranged themselves. When the Archbishop,crozier in hank and 'with mitred brow, stoodabove those prostrate young men, and with avoice which age has but mellowed and bar-monized, thrice repeated these words: " Hoselectos benedieere sanctificare et consecraredigneris," we could not help permitting our-selves to be borne by historic memory far upthe stream of ages, and exclaiming, "Oh,changeless Church! all is mutable here belowsave thee! History, the gray-haired sentinelof Time, tells as that these are the sameceremonies which he witnessed centuries longgone by in the cathedral churches of the Am-broses,the Augustines and the Chrysoatoms, andthat here, on this altar, is their successor, liketo them in vesture and feature, and here also, aprostration similar to that of Saul on the palmand cedar-crowned road to Damasons. Thelitany of the Saints have been recited, and theirintercession in behalf of the aspirants in-voked, all arose, advanced towards the Arch-bishop, and received at his hands the chalice,vestment, amiee and maniple, the insignia ofthe order to which they had been promoted.Forthe Deaconate and Priesthood we need addlittle, though the ceremonies and the ordainedwere less i number, yet the obligations in thereception of any of the Sacred Orders are of alike binding nature. However, we must say tothe newly-ordained who on Saturday morning,were commissioned to preach the Gospel to thepoor, to heal the contrite of heart,"to bringconsolation to the miserable, to stand at thebedside and cheer the feeting soul in herstruggles to burst her prison bonds, and smoothwith words of hope her passage to that regionseparated from us by an impenetrable andmysterious veil, go girt with the "armor of theLord," to battle against the hydra-headedworld which wages an eternal warfare againstTruth, and assails i~ieu4ith a fury whichseems to grow with its age and wax strongwith its iniquity. The following are the namesof the ordained:

TA I-siaey Besgeea osbes aned Gersany.-Thratifications of the definitive Tre -ty of Peacebetween Franee and Qermsay were exdbangedon Saturday, the 0th, at Frankfort, by Princevon Bismarok and MM. Jules Favre andPouyer-Quertier. The modification which hasbeen introduced into that part of it which hasreference to the cession of territory had givenrise .to a somewhat animated disoussion in theVersailles Assembly. The question was,whether-the renunciation of an additionsl dis-triht in the Ardennes on the frontier of Lux-embourg, was not too high a price to pay forthe retention of a larger myoes round the for-trees of Belfort. General (Chansy, and others,were -of opinion that the zone of seven oreight kilometres'round Belfort already provid-ed was sufficient for the purposes of defence,and regretted a compromise which looked verylike a submission to farther exigencies on thepart of a statesman who had certainly justi-fed his own dictom: "Force must take pre-cedence of Right." M. Thiers' view was thatthe Luxembourg frontier had only a politicalinterest for France. If ever Germany seizedthat Duchy, France would still be able to ap-pear before a Congress as a Border Power, asshe preserved four-fifths of her Luxembourgfrontier. Moreover, the roads by the Sambreand Mense and the Moselle being open, thatby Luxembourg was of no use to anybody ex-cept the possessor of the fortress. Belfort, onthe other hand, was of such importance as apaes through the Vosges frontier, that "hehad asked himself whether it would not bebetter to continue the war than to remain ex-posed at this point." No doubt, in the remotecodtingency of an attack by France on Ger-many, Belfort is the advanced post from whichit would be made. A contemporary has in-deed suggested that Prince von Bismarck maynot be altogether ill-pleased to leave his SouthGerman friends exposed to this possible dan-ger, in order that their dependence uponNorth Germany may be more complete. ButM. Thiers assigned an equally plausible reasonfor their consenting to the exchange. One ofthe first preoccupations of the German Chan-cellor is to conciliate the Alsatians. The mostobvious way of doing this is to promote theirmaterial interests, and the posseesion of themining district in the Ardennes will go far toatoneor any commercial injury infticted onthem by separation from France- M. Thierscould not resist a bitter fling at his militarycritics. When Talleyrand was congratulatedby an Ambassador on a victory, the Emperorwho was present, turned to the diplomatist andsaid, "Had not I also something to do with it?""So too now," said M. Thiere, "our generalsshould acknowledge that they also have hadsomething to do with the terms of the treaty.Loasdos Tablet.

The acrilege is Notre Dame.-Bat infinitelyworse than anything we have yet heard,are the horrors which took place in theChurch of N. Dame des Victoires-exceedingeven the 'eeeription given by the Daily Tele-graph of Monday last. After the venerableshmne of Our Lady had been violently strippedof all the silver offerings, whieh- were thencarted away, the whole church was given upto a scene of debauchery and crime of an in-fernal horde of men and women, which itwould be wrong to attempt to describe, stillless to detail. After this a number of Parisgamine were made to kneel on the steps outsidethe churchwhile they were told to shut theireyes and open their months, and see what N.Dame would send them. A man then appear-ed carrying a ciboriam filled with cousecratedparticles, and having administeredtothe boys,he cast the remaining contents of the cibo-rium among the crowd to be profaned accord-ing to the invention of each one. Meanwhile,the scene in all the corners of the Square wasmost heartrending; women gathered in groups,kneeling, praying, and sobbing and weeiungover the profanation. When the Hosts werethrown into the crowd, they arose, and rushedwith tears and cries to save the consecratedparticles; they paid away all the mo.eyJintheir pockets to rescue from tie boys and peo-pie each of the consecrated Hosts.

Fta-ee cad Ireland.--Mgr Dl)upanloup thus re-fere to Irish sympathy for France, in a touch-ing letter published in the Iteerman's Journal:"It is my duty to proclaim aloud how poor,Catholic, magnanimous Ireland had notceased since the commencement of our trialsto send me the most generous contributions.Assuredly we may well say of Ier, in the sub-lime words of St. Paol: Alliesma p•rspertascorm abaudarit in divitias. If ever we pitiedher misfortunes, which Providlence has at lastcommenced to assuage, to-day, when we in ourturn are suffering, Ireland has not shown her-self ungrateful, and-whether it be in thegifts of even the poorest of her children, orin the loodly expressed sympathy of her pub-lie meetinges-has proved that no people on theearth are more truly our friends than are theIrish. They have taken the very bread fromtheir own months, ma one of their Bishopswrote to me even yesterday, to g;ve it toFrance. I here offer the gemeruns Irish theexpression of my eternal gratitude."

OSun fg Catkelo Chaeel ds Leeds-On they, y 1st, an additional Catholic aechpel was opened in Leeds. dedicated to St. shBridget. The building, which was formerly nit;wellknown in Leeds as Ann Carr's ohapel, was towlately rented by. the teetotalers. Some time andago it was offered for sale, and was purchased in]by the Rev. Father O'Donnell, 8t. Patrick's fewYork-road. The cost has altogether been nat1100, and it is caloulated to seat near 500persons. It is situated in Regent street, Ley-lands, a quarter to a great extent inhabited by Bthe Irish of the town. It will be a great boon theto the Catholics of the district, and great thepraise is due to the indefatigable exertions of elsithe clergy and the worthy bishop of the dio- heoee, for the manner in which they have se- peacured this, the fifth substantial place of wor- saeship for the Catholics of the capital of the beewoolen trade. dln

Father Nugeat.-Never were the ca ities of 6W'the noble 8t. George's Hall, Liverpool, so flly 'Itested as by the immense audience that saeem- andbled on Monday evening to welcome back to Da]his native town, to his laborious sphereofduty Frand to his many friends and admirers, the Rev. 186James Nagent, after his benevolent mission of y

ay months 'in North Ameroa. Galleries coand body of the hall were oompletely crammed, orso that, from the platform, the audience,- leager and expectant, presented. the view of asurging mass of faces. The object of the as-smbly was threefold; to express aubli and lies

personal sympathy with Father Nugent, to ninewer an soeohnt of the suecessof his firstesasy siin prompting juvenile emigration, and and

to assist by' attendance at the concert agiven by the band of the Boys' Refuge theSt. Anne street, the invaluable institution Doebe founded, and has rendered so flourishing. AThe Rev. gentleman addressed the audience as a nfollows: " You know I started from this town Biswith a large family for one man, and especially Frethat man being a single man, and little seone- 24,Ctomed to the details of family life. I left the 1i-Mersey with a family of thirty-six. Of these thethirty-aix there were twelve boys and twelve Decgirls from the Industrial Schools I arrived in twoMontreal, and in less than forty-eight hours ariethese twenty-four children were provided withcomfortable homes. Eight of the irls were hplaed in respectable situations, where the thereceive from two to four dollarsper month, an andare permitted to attend schoolone-balfthe day. -The four younger girls ere adopted into re-spectable families. Three of the boys were Eleft in Montreal in good situations, and nine of 000them we're placed with intelligent, respectable ty-tfarmers in Canada West. and in both cases Itook care they should be under supervision, sothat is any injustice or tyranny were exercisedover th, -n I should have a report of it, and ifthey became dissatisfied with their situationsothers might be provided for them. If I hadlanded with a hundred such boys and girls Icould have found every one of them situations." MIn speaking about the state of morality in the pre,large cities of the United States he said :" Some people talk of the rowdyism of NewYork. Our own town produces more rowdies theithan Now York with all ite license. From the astylAdelphi Hotel to the spot I stand on at thismoment I could find more open vice than I L isaw at New York, Chicago, St. Louis, New &Orleans, Philadelphia, Baltimore, or Boston." TOne of his friends having told him that peo-pie accused him of being visionary, in fact,a dreamer, he ackhnowledged that he was real W-ly a dreamer, but that he always dreamt with one.his eyes wide open. I had an ida he said-a It tdream of land in Arkansas-where I might tiestablish a colony. The more I went soti•,the more I dreamt with my eyes open. I herd to iia man talking about Texas. I nstened, and primwhen he had done talking, I asked him tospare me an hour or so. He gave me great taencouragement about Texas. I had a letter perlfrom s gentleman in London and this attract- seted my mind to Texas, but I never dreamt I whoshould see Texas when I left these shores. Itook in the information my friend gave. I towent to New Orleans and to Galveston and I so tfound my friend had not been wrong in his in- knoformation. I got hold of a Texas almanacand I lost no oppbrtunity of talking to this yet,one and that one, and as far as I could judge comI found Texas the poor man's home, but I was comnot satisfied through seeiog it in books orhaving it on hearsay, but I made a long, diffi-cult, and perilous journey through a portion of mTexas. I went to San Antonio, and after Gspending a fortnight there, and seeing the Vprincipal landowners, I made my way to Aus- cuttin. There I was received by the Governor andthe Legislature, and twice addressed theHouse. From Austin I made my way to Hons. a feton, and so on to Galveston, and I am now eatithoroughly convinced that Texas is the homefor the poor man. I wish I could give yon afew particulars regarding it-but I must be In vvery brief. The first man I met in San An- maltonio was a poor man from Rathmelton; in the fontCounty Donegal; five years ago thaq poorman, wife, and two lumps of boys and a girl, ntwere starving in the streets of New York, and per.some charitable people found him the means alto get to Texas. ie arrived in San Antonioand got employment-driving a dray through Chnthe city. He soon managed to buy a horse nesand borrowed a dray, so he drove on his own of Iaccount. It was not long until he had suffi-cient money to buy both a dray and another ougidray and horses, and his eldest boy drove the excisecond dray. In twelve months he went eightmiles from San Antonio and took up 160 acres PFbof laud. I saw him st the door ofea shboomaker's mshop with two drays, and eight mules in each Fdray. The shoemaker was also from Rathmel- 9ton-a man named Kennedy. He said-"Your theRevereuce, that man has got on in the world."I asked 'iHow many head of cattle have you?" se" Over a thousand" he replied "and a hundred thehorses and mules- 160 acres of land, and aremoney in my purse." I said-" Why, manalive they're ashooting men in Ireland forhaving far less property than that." A man failnamedConor-one of the largest stock gra- metziers in the country-engaged with a mantwenty five years ago. The uman was not able Mro pay wages, but gave him board, and, in theplace of wages, one cow and a calf eaob month FIand now he is worth over 100,000 dollars and lishsends to market every year'fronm I5,00 to20,000 head of cattle.

The Pageaniration of I•taly.-The Italian Goy- Tb.ernumenut is going to take in hand the prasctieal prworking of the maxim, "a Free Church in aFree State."

NEW P•BdLIATIONS.

Ralph the Heir. By Anthony Trollope. NewYork: Harper & Bros. New Orleans: A.Eyrich.Mr. Trollope's novels, though of course im-

pregnated with the false philosophy of a here-tical age, are probably as harmless as any oftheir class, while better written in point ofstyle than most of them.Light. By Jacob Abbott. New York : Harper

& Bros. New Orleans : A. Eyrich.This is the second volume of a series by the

same author, entitled " Science for the Young."We think the title of the series rather a fanultyone. It should be entitled "Science forAdults.'"It treats, and is to treat, of a variety of scien-tific subjects, of which all persons pretendingto intelligence ought to know the elementaryprinciples. At school young folks can betaught those principles more concisely and,perhaps, accurately than they will be foundset forth in Mr. Abbott's works, but for thosewho have already left school, this idea seemsto be invaluable. Mr. Abbott makes his bookso readable that you get through withoutknowing that you are studying anything, andyet, when fully mastered, you have a verycompetent idea of the whole subject. Wecommend the series to general patronage.History of the Church. By Noethen. Balti-

more: Murphy & Co. New Orleans: P. F.Gogarty.We heartily welcome this work in its pres-

ent appearance before the public. The' factof this edition being the third in the space ofa few months shows conclusively the popularestimation in which it is held. It is extreme-ly readable in style and byno means londeronusin volume. In something over 600 pages themain points of the Church's story from itsfoundation to this day, are given. The differ-ent Pontificates are marked out. The generalpersecutions, the heresies of note, the princi-pal labors of distinguished Fathers of theChurch are sketched with sufficient distinct-ness and fuilnese for all ordinary necessitiesof knowledge. Every Catholic who can readought to know everything contained in thisexcellent volume.

Patrom 8oints. By Elizr Allen Starr. Balti-more: Morphy & Co. New Orleans: P.F. Oogarty.We most cheerfully commend this work to

the Cptholio publio. It comprises an immenseamount of historical information as to some ofthe best known of Christian heroes. So ablyare these facts interspersed with appropriatesentiments that a perusal of the work can notfail to afford both instruction and entertain-ment.Ber.ch and Bar. By L. J. Rigelow. New York:

Harper & Bros. Newr Orleans. A. Eyrich.Full of interesting anecdotes of both Eng-

lish and American celebrities.
