Cardinal- Wiama, at Malines,
Belgium, in 1863:
!Ali Roman Catholic England
only sent one member to the
House of Commons, 1852. Yet
we did not despair. We observ
ed; that the electors were divided
between two parties, and they
found that by combining their
strength, and then bringing it to
bear in favor of one side cr the
-other, they could cause that side
ibtsucceed" which appeared the
more disposed to do them justice.
; Thus we have taught the two
parties in the sate to count the
power-of the Roman Catholics as
something. "
From "The Catholic World."
V-The Roman Catholics, like
the church, is one and the same
ir all ages and all times . . The
most obvious, interes.ing and
important view, of the Roman
-Catholic in his relations to the
Century is that of voting. . . We
do not hesitate to affirm that in

rrhH kind of weather we are
having at this wriiing, which
may be totally different how
ever when you ge it, thiDgs
changing bo rapidly these
day?, is the most dissatisfac
tory kind of weather that
there is. Verily, man riseth
up in the moruiug in a bob
taUed nightshirt punctured
by goosefleah, digs bis last
winter's garments out of the
mothballs, leecueshis felt hat
from under his wife's setting
hen, and goeth down town
shivering. And before he
can get home again the sun
emes out aud begins putting
in it's bestlicks and be com

vest and open the windows
and swears because be wish

.u
performing our duties as citizens,
electors, and public offices we
should always and under all cir
cumstances act simply as Roman
Catholics; that we should gov
erned and directed by the immut
able principles Lour religior,
and should take dogmatic faith
and the conclusions drawn from
it, as expressed and defined in
Roman Catholic philosophy, the
ology, and morality, as the only
rule of our private, public and
political conduct."
Cardinal Manning, speaking
in the name of the pope says (in
"Sermons on Religious Sub
jects, " 1873) : ill acknowledge no
ci vtJ Jpow,er4 .J3tiiiyei,t.
no prince, and I claim more than
this I claim to be the supreme
julge and' the director of the
consciences of men. I am sole,
list, surpreme judge of what is
right and wrong Moreover we
declare, affirm, define and pro
nouce it to be necessary to salva
tion of every creature."
The Cannon Law of the papal
church says: "We declare, say,
define, and pronounce it to be al
together necessary to salvation,
that every humar creature should
be subject to the Roman pontiff "
Dr. O. A. Brownson, the
ablest writer which Rome .has
ever had' in this country, said in
his Review: f Undoubly it is
the intention of the Pope to pos-
sess this country, m this in
. a T .
tention he is aided bv the Jesuits
and by the Catholic prelates and
priests."
From the "Syllabus of Errors
ot f ope Jrius 1A-: 'lt is an er-
tot to hold that in the case of
conflicting laws between the two
pQwers, the civil power ought to
prevail."
Cardinal Mannings words:
"Why should the Holy Father
touch any matter in politics at
all? For this plain reason: Pol
itics are a part of morals; Pol
itics are morals on the widest
scale "
Archbishop Ireland, at the Ro
man Catholic Congress in Balti
more, November, 18;9: ''Our
work is to make America Catho

love the church, to mention the
word suffices, Our cry shall be,
"God wills it!' and our hearts

for a few days and in most cases
the sour stomach will disappear.
If it does not,-take one of Cham

the cutting should take place
after the pods have formed and
have grown considerably, but
before they have matured. If
the plant stems are left until the
pods are mats re the leaves will
shed badly, and the stems will
become too hard and woody for

When the soybeans are to be

they should be cut later, after

to the consumer by going int

practical, but highly desirable.
Ther4s is an abundance of wo.od
in Noth Carolina, and there will
neverfvbe a time when the largest
use this abundance can be
niadeso advantageously as now.
The ffran is as follows:
