but he was not the one to be the patron saint of the new Irish Catholic Church, There was another saint, Irish by birth, who had labored in his own land many years before St Patrick visited it, who would, before many months, with great splendor and solemnity, be declared the patron saint of the church in which he had faithfully labored centuries a0, and which the true Irish people, who really love the dear old isle, were trying to revive.JIn the Irish Church were being revived also the Ancient Order of Druids, who in old times superintended religious and educational matters among the people, and were counsellors of the Church.The Order of Bards, who were the men of poetry and of song, and the historians of the Church; and the \u201cmilitary men of Ireland,\u201d a force organized four hundred years before Christ for the protection of Ireland, two representatives of whom were in the body of the chapel to preserve order.he two powerful Irishmen towered over the rest of the congregation.The were dressed in neat suits of black, wi buff cord arranged around the arms and shoulders, military style, heavy gilt ornaments, and green and silver rosettes.Father McNamara then announced that a movement was already on foot for the building of a new chapel in a good location.The society would be organized under the laws of the State of New York, and the Druids would be the trustees of the funds.The Irish Catholics wanted a new graveyard, too ; they had a holy horror of having their bones thrown in a lace called Calvary, over on Long Islande knew of only one Calvary: that where the Saviour was crucified.The holy associations of that sacred spot were profaned when the name was applied to a place governed by Italian princes or their subordinates.This announcement was received with enthusiasm by the great crowd, and Irish expressions of satisfaction and Irish cheers mingled in a roar of applause.As soon as the noise had subsided the Father went to the altar, where he busied himself for some moments with the holy books, candles and other ornaments, Noturning he said that the counsellors of the church agreeing with him he had decided to establish a sodality of pious women, whose prayers he asked for the Church.In all the ancient struggles in Ireland the Irishmen had been supported by the prayers of such a band, composed of their wives and mothers.He had selected twelve matrons to start such a band, and would add to them as others were found worthy to join.To each of the selected twelve he then presented a handsome rosary of large white heads with heavy gilt medals and crosses.The women kissed them, and many burst into tears; old, gray haired grandmothers rocked back and forth, crooning and counting their beads.\u2018Ah,\u2019 said Father MoNamara, \u2018these old Irish mothers say their rosaries better than the Italians ever knew them.The Italians will say their rosaries with their left hand and stab you with their right, for they are born assassins.Returning to the altar, where he remained in silence for a few moments, he again turned to the audience and said : \u201cI will now take an important step.On a certain occasion an Italian Pontiff, Pius 1X, induced a number of Irishmen to go to Italy to kill his own countrymen.He made Hessians of them,\u2014you know what that means, and what contemptible mercenaries they are.We propose doi something very different; we inten forming a body militant to protect the Trish, men and women, if they are attacked while at their devotions.Druid counselor Patrick J.Dunne will pleass approach the altar.\u201d As Counsellor Dunne approached, Father McNamara produced a large, handsome,nickel-plated ivory-mounted revolver, which he presented to him, urging him never to draw it except in the cause of God, Ireland, and principle, and then to use it fearlessly.At this point there was great excitement among the audience ; men and women rose to their feet and ap- lauded heartily.As Mr Dunne knelt be- ore the altar, Father McNamara pronounced a blessing.Three new candidates for membership then knelt before the altar and took the solemn obligation $1.50 A- YEAR.had come to the conclusion that nothing but rigid isolation and merciless stamping out would prevail against the pest À is discovered that inoculation is effective against it.Pleuro-pneumonia is a fearfal scourge in the dairies and other places in London, where the animals are packed clonely together in ill-ventilated dens, and have to enhale the air expelled over and {over again from the lungs of other aui.\u2018mals.It has not been uncommon for from twenty to fifty per cent.of the animals in certain dairies to be attacked with pleuro-pneumonia in one year.Sinos the ; experinient of inoculating the animals has i been tried the same dairies have not been compelled to slaughter one per cent of their cattle on account of their taking the The inoculation is effected b making a small slit on the underside of the tai near its end.In the slit is inserted a little piece of the lung of an animal that has suffered from pleuro-pneumonis.À feverish condition of the system ensues and a more or less virulent suppuration takes place resulting in the loss of all the part of the tail below the wound.In rare cases the inflammation extends from the tail to the spine, and death results.The most valuable fact brought out is that if an animal inoculated is at the timo of the operation already in an incipient stage of pleuro-pneumonia the disease will rapidly develop into the acute stage, and, we presume, will kill the subject, thus disposing of a centre of infection, while if the animal js entirely free from the taint of the disease it is in a fortnight after the operation has been made practically proof against the diseases, and might mingle freely without danger to itself with animals in the last stago of pleuro-pneu- monia.The inoculation experiments were conducted under the auspices of the Royal icultural Society and were entered without any expectation that such positive results would be obtained.The Society is preparing a full report of ita roceedings, for which stock-breeders will ook with great interest.\u2014Globe.CANADA.Nowecastle, March 12\u2014Two boys, aged twelve and ten years respectively, were abducted this evening while on their wa home from school to the residence of their legal guardian, the Rev A.A.Drummond.The boys are named James and John Keith.One is fair and the other dark, and when they left they had on brown coats and knickerbockers and glengarry caps.A man and woman who are supposed to have been watching for them during the day, overtook them and induced them to enter a covered bu on the pretence of giving them a ride home.They drove off in a northerly direction, and when they had travelled & mile and a quarter the lads were transferred to another bu driven by a young man, who started once more northward.It is thought that the intention is to secrete them temporarily in Canada, and then carry them to Quebec or across to the United States, in order to take them beyond the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery, of which they are wards.The event arises out of a mixed marriage ; the father being a Protestant, the mother a Catholic.Some time ago they separated, when the two boys were made wards of Chancery and placed by the court in the hands of the Rev Mr Drummond to be brought up in the religion of their father.Mr Drummond says: The same boys were abducted some years ago, and concealed under a false name in a Roman Catholic establishment in the United States, where they were kept for four years.From the description of the parties en in the present abduction I have no doubt but that it is intended if ossible to t the same process and ave those children eonfined in some similar place, in order that they may be brought up in the Roman Catholic faith in spite of their father and the law of the lan Ottawa, Marcn 14.\u2014At the meeting of the Ottawa County Council yesterday, the following resolution was carried : n- cillor Kelly moved, seconded, by Councillor Beihler, \u201cThat the members of this Council have seen with alarm aod indignation the recent attempt of the late De Boucherville Cabinet, supported by the majority of the Legislative Assembly of Quebec, to appropriate by distress warrant, in violation of the constitution, the property of this and other municipalities for debts which we do not owe, and to interfere with their contracts and in violation of their chartered right as British subjects to clog the courts agninst their demands for never to enter a church, never to hear mass, and never to receive the sacrame.gt from any priest owning allegiance *o the Pope of Rome.Father McNamar, then ronounced a solemn benediction, after which the congregation cluste\u201d.ed around the new-made members, sho\u2019ging hands and offering congratulatiory,, PPS Ep age INOCULATION FOR PLEURO-PNEU- Y.ONNLA.THE most eadly disease to which British onttle are subjecterl in ordinary times 1s pluero.pneumonia, and to find a preventive for this practically incurable malady has long been an object of great solicitude to veterinsriams and stock- the ocean and the Pyrenees and kiss the breeders.Just at the time when breeders redress ;

in 1798, she became the ally of Turkey againat France ; in 1807, Russia and Turkey united, and Sir John Duckworth's fleet had all it could do to oscape from the Dardanelles without destruction ; in 1817, Russia and England destroyed the Turkish fleet at Navarino ; and in 1834, Turkey and England beat Russia in the Crimea.A most foul and horrible murder was committed last month at Vico Marino, in the Italian duchy of Piscenza.About half-past ten in the evening the priest of the parish was taking his modest supper, which was being served from the neighboring kitchen.The assassins must have elimbed the garden wall and entered the opendoor ofthe kitchen.Inaninstant they butchered the unsuspecting woman, who was found to have received no fewer than eighteen stabs of a stiletto.Then passing into the next room, they turned their bloody daggers on Father Ghizoleri,and his body was found in the most horriblo state, with his head entirely severed.Next morning the bell-ringer, not finding the priest as usual coming to the church, thought the clergyman had ovorslept himself and went to the rectory to call him.Getting no answer, ho forced his way into the fous and found the two corpses in the state described.The object of tho double assassination was evidently rob- Y bery, as the drawers and deeks were rifled, and all the gold and silver coin abstracted.Justice is on the track of the vile murderers, The Dutch seem to have made an advance towards the solution of the tramp roblem, having hit upon a contrivance or the cure of laziness, which, if generall adopted, would be likely soon to exterminate the genus tramp, either by actual destruction or reformation.If a pauper who is able refuses to work they put him into a deep cistern, and let in a sJuice of water.It comes in just so fast that by lying & pump, with which the cistern 1s Furnished he keeps from drowning.Three Welsh pilots, by whose forethought, skill and arduous exertions nine men were rescued from the mesthead of the steamer Pioneor, off the coast of Wales in January last, on being asked by one of Lloyd's agents what they wanted or expected for their services, immediately replied : \u201cWe have had what we wanted \u2014 the lives of the men.\u201d A Newfoundland writer says: We have just cause to complain of the conduct of the American Government in reference to the Treaty of Washington.They excluded our seal oil from the free list for the specious rcason that it was not a \u201cfish oil ;\" they put a duty on cans in which lobsters are sent to their markets ; and now, to crown all, they have struck out refined cod liver oil fron the free list and imposed on it a duty of 40 per cent, which is prohibitory.The reason assigned for this last move is that cod liver oil is \u201cmanufactured.\u201d Tho only - process it goes through is filtration and exposure to the sun ; sad on similar grounds they might exclude dried codfish, as they 0 through a curing process ; and they might impose a duty on herring barrels ad well as on lobster cans, and thus evade every provision in the treat igned tu sequre the admission of our Eubery products jnto American markets duty free.It is this \u201csharp practice\u201d which so lowers American statesmanship in the eyes of \u2018others, creates irritation, provokes retaliation, and fails to secure any lasting advantage.If anything would justify a retaliatory policy it would be these tamperings with the provisions of a solemn tresty, and these efforts to evade îte plain Ib is the duty of the Imperial Government to see that these cvasions are not tolerated.The Shah of Persia is shortly expected to pass through Russia on his way visit the Paris Exhibition.: The Roman Catholic Churches were not the only places where prayers were invek- ed on behalf of the new Pope on Sunday last.À similar request was made in the forenoon at the (Puseyite) church of St John the Divine, Kennington.At the close of his sermon at the 12 o'clock service, the Rev Mr Athawes, ome of the curstes, after referring in eulogistic terms to the virtues and general character of the late Pope, asked for the prayers of the congregation on behalf of the newly- elected Pontiff, that he might | inherit all lived i ine yours, but be finally discovete that he ria sub a \u201cvidder the virtues of his distingui eces- sor who had just | away.qe.etn ppp pige
