"No Catholic," says the Baltimore Catholic Mir?, ror, "can, without sin, assist at heretical worship: therefore, no Catholics may attend the 'revivals' of strolling preachers," and it cautions them against "going to hear men notorious for making a trade of religion.'"

VISITING VESUVIUS. AclBilCoudiUou of (lie Lay . Flow from the Vbl cau('. . Naples letter to the Pall Mall Gazette. I started with a friend to make the J ascent. It rained until we reached the observatory, and tiien,,fortunatielyy the day became delightful. IC is a weary climb tip, though, through' the1 loose ashes, and one is . tempted , to halt and admire the view pretty often 'before reaching the top. ; Whei w had reach ed it we could see nothing -for the jsmoke and ruist .that iUled the big. crater; "While far beneath us we could hear the Mvdleethihg'aftd',,fTequent 'explosions' from the new cone. W e were advised i at starting not to descend into the' crater,, out our guide assured us we could atlite safely do it, so down we scrambled on the lava.'--The floor of the crater has risen in the lasfr few i (weeks from a considerable tiepthj to-1- within about twenty feet of a gap m the side of !th crated wall, looking toward the left-hand cone of . Vesuvius, and 'it is still Using'. As vStOod bn the com-' paratively cool diocks or lavatne iresn rd-hot stream was slowly flowing knit from cracks around usmavinsr' on in a snake-like, fascinating Vay, and break- ingntin afresh; place as isoon as the now,stopr)ed,eisewnere. Jvery cracE snOwM the lata 'f&T-not 'a foot or so be neath us. but the sruides ran about on it, and we followed them, as if we were ! on the level fjampagmv tne upper end of the old crater-fthatjis, just un derneath the highest pointr of the 'Old cone is the new cone which has risen in the last week or so ; a baby cone, nbawt'fifty f eet in height, and perhaps one hundred and ninety yards'itt ciui cumference at the base, but a very iioisey and firey cone, sending, out continual puffs of smoke rosy with the frames Whreai frequency rise above its somrmty and hurling into the air to a heightof lOo feet lumps of red-h'bt1 Stone and Java; which, falling down oni its sides, make them rise higher every day. The wiiKr fortunately blew'thtfmoke away from us, or otherwise .weushpuld have been almost if not suffocated where we stood abotJtthii'ty yarfeiYbm the base of the cone ana we were aDie to enjoy cne J wonderful sight, which, as a man who olioweri Us' dowil" saM'!bne codlcf "sfay all day to look at. Accompahting ttre bursts of flames were hollow tepprts. ered, stifled explosions, and, as,I'fclitribiM eu up me oiue ui mc vxavci ou ao w ui. able to look more inta the-mouth Of tne Tifi-wmnnR: I could seethrough thesmoke a strtigglm'rcbhfustorifM flmes,!; "wliich found vent in the ejection of the bhrtv- mgqvud. j rne crater; w3 are' prii liant with yellow and orange ''colored: sulphur, mixed with basalt and ted lava Ann xb hit.fi salts, formim? a brrcnt' con-j trast to the -leaden-colored laVa which fnma fha floor and the black' cone with its crown of smoke. The guide told Us We floor had risen an '6XJtraotj dinary number of feet; but,n3tidgirig from what we saw of lava flowing; it wrttld take a month probably to reach thwgap through which its flow seems in dicated, unless it should burst out anyt where on t.he side of the mountain. At present the stories 'that it. is flowing down the outside of Vesuvius, andjthat Professor Palmieri is building dike to pifct t'bhser,yatort arid so forth,, are pure inventions. -Wi viu-J '.!
