Though the English are perhaps w< >rslii|>ers of caste, more than are the Indians or the Japanese, they have the sen.'C to worship personal merit and virtue, when they lead to a man’s elevation to dignities. Indeed, socially, the only consideration in the ma ter is that tlie Catholic ideal demands a life abnvt the world; aod, therefore,society is rather afraid of propagandisrn, l^cau.se it inter' feres wiih conventional pride and worldly ease. Worldliness is of c^.»ur.se the grand im{>edimeut to con* versions, people professing to disbelieve in this or that dogma, in this or that practice of devotion of Catholics, but really dreading the stern duty of confession, and the stem ne-ceaiiity of bending their w ills to au' ihority. I appreh *nd, therefore, that the appointment of Dr Vaughao w'ill be acceptible botjiJto rich and to poor, but that it wi 1 not in itself have any intiuence—religiously, politically or even socially. What new issues may be at stake in the near future no one cao prnphejy or forecast; and just as the London Dock strike, and Irish -ympathies, and the League of the Cross opened out colossal personal influence to Cardinal Manning, so new issues may create a grand career for the successor of one w’ho died “great.” In the meantime, in the very fact that we have a new* archbishop, wi.hout a protest, without misgiving, without *‘a storm in a teacup,” we recognize the huge stride • I A t Vk^l t/»i am Vlofi in r^nOTaatfiolic Words.

Indeed, in our verv' peace is our only danger. Now that all social barriers are practically re-» moved from the Catholic community; while a sort of respectful “let alone” attitude is assumed religiously, (save, of course, by a few fanatics "who oount for nothing;) and even politi* cally Catholics can hold w*orthy of-» fiees; the only danger is that which comes from sense of security—which not unfrequently chills tke Catholic musionary spirit.

To preaeli Christ crucified was to be a scandal to an unbelieving people; every posver of evil, every vile pas'ion of mau was to oppose tlie reception of Christ’s saving irul s. ’I’hose wdio sutfered for his name’s sake, He declared blessed; amid all liieir troubles lie bade them be of clieerful lieart, saying to them, ‘Have confidence; I liave overcome the world.’ Relying on Christ’s promise the ChurcD’s teachers fub filled their mission with varying succe s, ss the multitude received or rejected tlie word of God. For well nigh nineteen centu.ies Christ’s messengers have bean engaged in the con.estof evil, never knowing test from the toil of battle, and hence the church they' reprcdent has w'éll been named the Cdurch mditant. “Perhaps, in no period of the Church’s history have Jthe trials and triumphs of Christ’s kingdom been SI clearly marked for us in the last century’s growth of our owui r.pub' lie. Who cannot see how' the little grain of mustard seed has grown into a mighty tree; how those w'no wept as they went sowing the seed returned in these later days bearing an abundant haryest’.:' Tw’O hundred and sixty'eight years ago Sir George Calvert, second baron of Baltimore, became a Catholic and resigued the secretary’ of state, w’hich he held under King James of England. At that day to be a oCa holic w'as to be a man proscribed; the spirit of religious persecution was abroad, aud those who for conscience sake clung to the old Faith w ere glad to find a refuge in this new w’orld where all then might be free to follow' the diC' tales of their own conscience. This haven Lord Baltimore secured in the present state of Maryland. Here, at last, was golden peace for the exn iled ones; years flow’ed on, aad the devil of persecution had already crossed the ocean, and in the name of ChriSt filled with the spirit of hate and discord those who were themselves martyrs to religions hate and rancour. **Tben came tbe evil time. When Bouls wore fettered, tbouxbts were Clime." “Those w'ho were in the numerical majority majority, believing that might made right, fined and inapris-oned or banished all who dared to differ from them in belief. Strange statutes were made, as for example, those for the keeping of the Sunaav: ‘No swimming nor yet unreasonable walking.’ Then there was a compulsory’ attendance at Sabbath meetings, which meant the dominant sect’s gatherings, for in Massachusetts the poor Quakers were fined ten shillings each for attending their own conventicles. Nay, even to harbor a Quaker in these days was a criminal offense, for which the fine w'it.s forty bliiiiing-i an hour. Reli-g'ous aiiiiiKi'ity paid no attention to sex in those da.s s, fur three poor C2 taker svomeu, because they dared to religiously exhort others w'ere lied to file tyiU ol liurses a d beaten xvitli ten .*5trT})es mr the -bick; first Lbrough r>over, a*id then through other towns uf M issaciiusetis.

Are we in this land of ours, at anv time, to go haeksvards to the gloomy’ days of sei’ti iial siri‘e? No, tliat dark sliadow i.' happily gone, never to return. To 1 ve in harmony' ssdlh our fellow citizens uf every' creeil is God’s loving lesson, as well as the teaching of our glorious couslitu-lion, ‘•He that loveth not liis brotlier wliom lie s eth, husx' sliall he love God, wdiom he does not see? Instead of im])ugning h mest motives and raising up gigantic broken shadows of our breifiren, let us give them credit for good a« coinplibhed; allow at least lioiiesty of purpose to those wlio iliffer from us in religion. No threat, nor tyranny’, nor idle controversy' can reacii the mind of rei'on-ing man and make him yield to tru h; that must come from accurate statement, from good example, from God’s abounding grace. “To such fraternal fee’iiig the sacred heart of Jesus, globing with intense love for every one of his creatures, urges us, and shall 1 turn ray back on men and call them evil names, shutting them out from sy'm-pathy, because their fathers in times past lost the faith in which I was l>orn? Shall I close to them God’s infinite love, when He, who is tlie living fountain, cries out ‘If any man thirst let him come to me and drink.’ We sees no man’s creed, if it comes from force or fraud. The enlightened intellect alone can make adhesion to the truth dear to us, can give full value to tlie faith that is in us. For those who w'ould fain attack our rereligion in the sjiirit of petty perse' cution, w'e have only pity' and sorrow. Long ago Gov. Wise, of Virginia, himself a ITotestant, gave answer forcibly enough to the fanatics of his day w ho aimed at removing all Roman Catholic s from office. “ ‘They',’ said tlie governor, ‘not only appeal to the religious element, but they raise aery'again>tthe Pop?. These men, neither of whom are Episcopalians, Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists, Congregationalists, Lutherans, or what not, who are men of no religion, who have no church, w'ho do not say their prayers, who do not read their Bible, who live God-defying lives every day of their existence, are now seen with faces as long as their dark lanterns, with the whites of their eyes turned up in holy fear lest the Bible should be shut up by the Pope. Men who were never known before on the earth to show any interest in religion, to take any part with Christ or His kingdom, who are the devil’s own, belonging to the devil’s church, are, all of a sadden, deeply interested for the Word of God against the Pope. It would be well for them that they joined a church which does beleive in the Father, and the Son and the Holy Ghost,* “But I am addressing men who long^go gave ample testimony that they are opposed to sectional hate, for in Sk common cause and amid the dangerif of battle. Catholics and Pro* testanta learned the lesson of charity. In that evil day when disiinion and civil svar theatened the stability of the republic, when the enemies of our growing country rejoiced that tbe day of her downtall had come, and devotedly hoped that the ►erpent of discord had stragled the young giant in its cradle, you aud those you com memórate today', w'ent out amid the hardships of a long campaign, offer-y'o ir lives for the safety of the Union. “On many a hu'rdfo giit batilefield your brave companions went down to death, but their w’ounds secured our victory. The lesson taught us by that grand army of self-sacrificing men is love of countr»; to defend it iu its inte.rity WcS tho sob^der’s sublime work, and victorious in that defence, to maintain its unity. “The historia s have yet to tell of the difficulties against wliich these brave men labored. Thousands were found to ojipose with all their might tlie w'ar o the rebellion, to s trike a the moiher who protected tliera, to declare against th se in office, to rid cule the governmeiil and despise tliose wlio ottered tlicir lives for the Union. “Traitors there were, wiio undel’ llic crafty' name of a jieace party— <|Uotin_5 ricrijiture for llieir purpose, —became skilled obstructionists; weak-niimltd and base men there were, who put every'obstacle iu the way of the Union, b it their names svere in dishonor, wliile tho.se who died in the struggle, of every nationality’ and every' creed, a thankful country’s highest reward is freely' given. A iiation’s graiitude to you wlio still survive the toils of battle, the heat and cold, tiie iorced marches, tlu* long nights upon the tented plain, tlie agony' of ghastly wounds, torn by s ol and sliell—wliat sh >uld the generous citizens offer? To you, not only your full meed of praise, but that support in your old age, wli eh should not be doled out as to the beg ar at our gate, bin, tha-. well won aid whicn makes us kiss the h ind of the lev eiver. “We, who now enjoy the fair fruits of peace, wouhl be the veriest cravens should sve forget our lieroes, whether they' fougiitor died, or come out from tlie carnage to teach a new generation tiie 110 ilest thing that man can do,is when he dies for man. You, in tlie words of I’resident Andrews, of Brown U^niversity', teach us not to hold mere outsvard Fo irth of July celebrations and flag raisings but to tike to heart what the stars and stripes mean—liberty, union, law and power for good among tlie nations. May the world, as it grows old, behold us a united people, ready to cheer on the good, to encourage every noble effort everywhere. No time liave we. in our young nation, for delving into the buried past. We are here to build for God’s honor, for th ^ well being of man snd the new institutions of our erj. We have no tears to waste over ancient ruins, we must not dissipate our strength in foolisli con roversy. “But it is ours to run a race with every form of religion for the prize aw'arded to those who heil sore hearts, who minister to minds dis-eased, who lighten ilie burthen of their brother’.s woe. Let us have charitable strife in the building of hospitals and asylum>. Let our con-troversy be as to the best methods of aiding the poor and preventing crime. * This is religion pure and unspotted, ‘To visit the fatherless and widows in their tribulation, and keep one’s self undefiled from this world.’ Freedom and education are in this land to be worked to their full significance,—the society' that cannot stand in the full light of both is neither worthy of God nor man. May truth and freedom ever grow; only bigotry and narrow-mindedness can bar their progress. Ruling the destinies of nations, as well as individuals, stands one for whom the nations exist. They change. He is e:ernal. In all the progress of the centuries He leads the way, making all things subservient to His will. May the whole world be one *n serving Him, ‘For this is life eternal that they may know Thee and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent.’ ” PiQUA AS A SUMMER RESORT. O Locatfed on the C.

Crude and apparently wasteful processes still hold good in the m inufac-ture of the lime candles used in calcium lighting. The use of this light has enorin lusly in.;rea3ed of late years, and even the eleetric light has not supplanted it, bat the attempt to sn’)sti-tute machinery fx- haul '.var-c in in mu-faeturing the caniles has m‘t with small success. Liiu.‘ can lies are produced by compressiou, b it they a *e nob satisfactory', and the sa.n * is t.-le of magnesium candles. The b in I s i %■ and the circular saw have been trie 1 in the cutting of lime candles, bat ha .'e not proved satisfactory. The greater part of the lime candles used in theaters, lecture rooms and clinics in this city are made by' hand. The workman sits on a bench or stool, and has in front of him a square box open at the top. and partly' filled with a log of wood that rises some inches above the mouth of the bo.x. Across the hoi'izontal end of this log a bit of plank is nailed, and this plank is traversed by a deep groove at right angles to its length. Lime for the manufacture of candles comes in barrels containing abmt 32.5 pounds each. It is lump or iitislaeked lime. The powder and the small lumps are useless. Lumps as small as four inches long and two inches wide are rudely shaped with a hatchet. Larger lumps are sawn iu jDarts and then shaped as the smaller lumps. After preparing the rude lumps the workm in takes them one at a tune and smooths them with a broad, eoar.se tile. He lay's each lump parallel to the groove in the plank on top of the box, and slowly turns the lump as he draws the tile back and forth through the groove. The whole process of making tho candles seems crude and simple, but it can be successfully' done only by a xvorkman acquainted with the qualities of lime and long-practiced in handling tools and material. A skilled workman knows what lumps are worth saving, and just how far to go in shaping them with the hatchet. Lime with much sand is almost useless for the purjiose of making candles. Sometimes only a dozen candles can be made from a whole barrel of lime. The best lime will produce twenliy dozen to the barrel. Such of the lime as is unfit to be cut into candles, and the small filings that fall into the workman’s box, are put back into the barrel and returned to the merchant. They are as good for ordinary purposes as the large lumps. The best lime candles will burn under the oxy-hydrogen stream from two to five hours, but many last only an hour, and some must be thrown away in five minutes. The lime slowly pits under the stream, and after a time the candle splits or flakes off. The best candles may be reversed and burned for some time in that position. Lime candles are ordinarily three inches long and rather less than an inch in diameter. A skilled man with good tools and material can make eight dozen a day. They wholesale at about eighty cents a dozen, though some for stereopticon use, being more carefully made than those supplied to the theaters, fetch a rather higher, price.—N. Y. Sun. WHEN STAMPS CAME IN. Over Half a Century Since Rowland Hill Grot Cng-land to Use Them. Fifty-two years ago, according to a number of authorities aád many philst-telists, postage stamps for prepay'ing postage on letters first came into use in England. Rowland Hill advocated their use three y'ears before, and set to work on a design which, when it first appeared. was ridiculed and characterized as “sticking piaster.” The idea that business could be expedited and rates lessened by means of stamps was called absurd. For all practical purposes May 6, 1840, was the first date when adhesivo stamps came into general use for prepayment of letter postage in England. The United States did not adopt the system until 1847. Before 1349 stamped newspaper wrappers were experimentally introduced in England, but léttera went the old way in the care of a jx)st-man, who collected the charges when the parcel was delivered. As early as 1653 postpaid envelope® were used in Paris, and stamped postal envelopes were issued by the government of the Sardinian states from 1820 to 1836. These, however, did not embrace the convenience met with in tho adhesive, separate stamps, which at once won public approval. The manufacture of stamps was in the start very crude, and the design® __ far from the better styles of to-day. In only thrive when they are stolen, ^ ^ ! - the queen, but considerable opposition was made to the design because of tho soMning indignity cast upon the ruler when the was blackened in can-^llation. S'' ’ -' Tho Gkninan otates quickly followed Great Britain in using stamps for letter postage, having figures with various insignia engraved about them on the face. Brazil introduced letter stamps in 1843, adorning them with a likeness of the emperor. Tho United States, first of all the countries, after adopting “stickers,** went into the classification of values, using separate designs for various kind® of mail matter.—N. Y. Times. \
