Lerrer OF A FRENCM CNAPLAIN.

We txiract the following froti a letter,
Which appeared in thé Francais,
from Fey thes d'itulst, Chaplain oF the

2th Corps d’Armee, The tetter is dated
aris, 14 Sept,

: bag ty va Cuxbicl of rie Troors.—
vey tong warehes which preceded
“ three fatal encounters (those near

issembirg,) the duty of the chaplain
frequently. made him share the fatigues
‘of thé sdldier, ao that he night be ready
to show himself in, the ranks, saying,
* Friend, here { at.’ On foot before
Hay-Break. On the march with his men,
arriving towards noon at the halting-
— his first visit was made to the

m-of the neighboring village ; having
Wade the necessary arrangements, he
Would return to the camp and announce
Vhroughout the tents a service at the
vharch in the evening. Never was this
peal made in vain ; every evening the
young recruits and the old troopers
toight be seen hastening to the chapel,
covered with dust ot mad, happy to
hear the address of the Priest. When
the instruction was over, many would
toma in their seats for confessivn.
Hindered by the delays of the rear, |
lo not often know, during the march,
the joy of these delightful services.
More than once, however, during the
Fatigues of the march, the Priest keeping
by the side of the column would per-
veive in the look of a soldier, as it were,
® question and an expectation, the silent
ansWer was not long in coming, and be-
hind the ditch might be seen the Priest
and the soldier walking side by side, as
if engaged in intimate conversatiun ; the
hand of the Priest would be raised quietly
to make the sign of the Cross, the head
vf the suldier, while marching, would be
bent for an instant to receive the abso-
lution, while his hands were clasped in
& warm grasp, and the soldier would run
to retake his place, light in heart, ready
to say to Death, ‘ Come, if thou wilt, |
fear thee no longer.’

Scenes 1n a Mlosprrar.—The Abbe is
Very anxious to see a battle, and, on the
heights of Beaumont, he had posted him-
selt in a position near Marshal McMahon,
where he thought le could satisfy his
curiosity :—Suddenly a chasseur-a-pied

him, ‘* M. l’Abbe, said he to me, I
think they want you at the huspital.”’
** What? Are there already some woun-
ded there ?’’ Good-bye to curiosity, now
for duty. I ran to the hospital ; a woun-
ded man was just brought in ; his state
was frightful; his intestines were torn
ut of his bleeding flesh; but already
one of my colleagues had taken his
place by his bed. The poor man was
fully conscious ; the Priest received his
vonfession, gave him the last Sacraments
and in a quarter of an hour, he rendered

in the centre an old man with white head
stands nobly erect ; the wind was blow-
lng tempestuously, the rain was fallin
in Lorrenta, the darkened fires éf Bazeil-
les resumed, by the help of the approach-
ing night, adismal brightness. Of what
is Usis poor priest accused? Of having
fired Un the wer: Oh! that accusation,
be rejects it with indignation ; the pastor
knows not the act of killing. But, at
east, he had taken part in the defence.
Ob! if it was enough that he had re-
ceived our brave marinés who, from
every window in the town, had inflicted
bloody losses on the eneniy, why not ?
Ought he to blush for it?” The end
was that the next day the poor Cure was
condemned to death, but was afterwards
pardoned by the general.

A new War Instaument.—The JMorn-
tng Post has received a letter from Paris
by baloon. One of its announcements
ought to canse the Germans some
anxiety :—‘' The defence from within is
already taking a desperate character.
The generals, asis the wont of generals
have long insisted upon making war
only according to tradition, They hold
that, while it is perlectly fair and most
honorable forcibly to introduce steel
and lead into the vital parts of their
enemies, or to blow them up with gun-
powder, it is barbarous oh disgraceful
to use to the same end any means in-
volving a further advance of science.
Their scruples, hc wever, have now been
vanquished. I have to-day seen a quite
unmartial, frock-coated, keen-eyed little
chemist, who has within his knowledge
more effectual and terrible methods of
warfare than all the cocked hats> in
Europe ever covered. Ile assures me
that, with a recently-discovered prepar-
ation—fulminate of picrate of potass in
its simple form- -he can blow the Prus-
sian army off the face of the earth. Ile
has another preparation, which at once
asphyxiates and burns any living crea-
ture npon which it is projected ; and, in
addition to that, he declares that he
possesses the means of decomposing
water itself, and turning it into consum-
ing flame. This gentleman is in the
employ of the Government, and has al-
ready prepared a most diabolical re-
ception for the Prussians. They have
indeed, already experienced the awful
eflects of his skill in the explosion of
two terpedoes, which are said to have
killed 700 men, and the exposed points
of the defence are thickly sown with
like engines of destruction,”

FAVRE’S REPLY TO BISMARCK.
Roven, Oct. 20.—A copy of the Paris
Oficial Journal, just received, contains
the answer of Favre, to a circular of
Bismarck on their conferrence at Fer-
riers,

“Ic is well,” says Favre, ‘that France

wered, “I only want a hand.”’ ings to the gratification of the exhorbi-

Ar Monzon.—After describing the
fighting at Monzon, the Abbe continues:
—‘* It was necessary to see to the safety
wf the wounded. We closed the gates,
taking care to throw all weapons outside;
then, with our arms crossed. we awaited
the event on the stairs. Three times
our infantry, led on by the intrepid Mar-
hal, rushed forward ; three times we saw
them return in disorder. One had bis
hand run through, he ran to me, * Ban-
dage my hand quickly that I may retarn
to the fire. I want to gotodie.” It
was six o'clock inthe evening ; the fight
was still more severe in the suburb,
Many of the superior officers found a
glorious death in that village —
the straw was red with blood, Nigh
came, andthe silence of death sneceaded
to the tumult ofthe battle. The French
retreated on Sedan. . . All the
night was passed by us in visiting our
poor wounded : the hospital was over-
tlowing; the church, transformed imto
an ambulance. held 250 sick ; the school-
house was full. If the conflagration
Yrom burning houses should spread !
There were yet two hours of mental
anguish. At last the fire deadened, the
vomplaints of the wounded were lulled
to sleep—even that is overcome by
fatigue, and every one lay down on the
ground to snatch a moment’s rest.

True Prusstans.--The next day, and
the day after, in the environs of Sedan,
were being played ont the destinies of
-France, and we knew nothing of what

. was happening. Occupied, either with

scouring the woods and the fields to
find any wounded who had been forgot-
ten, or with visiting all the houses of the
town, we gave but an indifferent gaze
to a spectale new to us—Prussian uni-
forms. There, however, we could see
them at work, full of delicate respect
and care for the wounded, rude and

towards the inhabitants, exact-
ing, but for the most part disciplined,
and, in spite of inevitable excesses,
from which no victorious army could
ever be entirely free, worthy so far of
the admiration of those whom they had

vonquered,

Wauar ue saw at Bazeiuies, — After
referring to the capitulation’ol Sedan,
which good Abbe calla ‘‘a deplor-
able act,” tre describes what he saw at
Bazeilles, though we must remember
that the Bavarians whom he accuses of
barbarity have been fully exonerated by
other wtiters, “Between Douzy and
Sedan my journey was a terrible one, 1

to retrace the horrors of it. Neverthe-

STATISTICS OF DISEASE.

NATURE'S ENEMIES AND TIER ALLIES,

The statistics of what ate called “ nat-
ural deaths ’’ would astonish the world,
if we could only ascertain and compile
them. Nature is very much slandered.
She is not the distinctive agent she is
represented to be. She fights disease
with Amazonian energy, and would
conquer in millions of instances where
she succumbs, were it not for the fafal
aid of deleterious medicines. When
Ilolloway’s remedies are called in as her
allies, she generally achieves a victory.
These hygeian preparations seem to re-
inforce the vital energies, and intuse a
sanitary prineiple into the blood against
which no disorder can make head,
Their success in our distant colonics,
and especially Canada, has been mar-
vellous. Their celebrated inventor, with
the world for his arena, could not name
any region where the conflict of his
remedies with the hydra of disease has
been marked by more decided triumphs
than inthe British provinces of America.
We are aware that they have done won-
ders everywhere, but for the diseases
prevalent in Canada, they seem to be
providentially adapted. For the distres-
sing maladies so common on the low-
lying shores of the Canadian lakes and
large rivers, they are, in cases, and
under all contingencies, commanding
remedies.

Bouchette, in his large work on British
America, and Ferguson in his ‘ Practical
Notes,’ allude to the insalubrity of many
of the wet and swampy districts on the
margins of the water courses, and along
the shores of Lakes Erie, Ontario, and
IInron. These writers recommended
that ‘great care be given to the regu-
larity of the digestive organs by the
settlers on marshy soil,” Had iHollo.
way’s Pills been before the world when
Ferguson wrote, he would probably have
recommended them to every inhabitant
of the low lands of Canada. Asa means
of keeping the digestive and excretive
system in a perfect order they have no
— (so we arg assured by persons
who use them as a family medicine) in
the whole range of remedial preparations.
In bronchitis, neuralgia, asthma, and
sore throat, which are prevailing com-
plaints in moist locations throughout
Canada, the Ointment is the only article
used by the inhabitants as an external
application.

It i8 not our province to prescribe for
our readers ; but while reviewing the
wonderful progress which [olloway’s
Pills and Ointment have made in public
confidence since their introduction into
Canada, we must necessarily arrive at
one of two conclusions; either that the
remedies are of unequalled efficacy, or
that Canadians are destitute of ordinary
sagacity. Preferring to adopt the former

usefal to the of Balan, who! position as the most tational, we heartily
he -" i Renn 4 0 recommend these famous preparations

Leltract from letter of Pope Pius IX,

Rome, Dec. 30, 1868,
Rey. I. T. Hecken:

We heartily congratulate you upon the es-
teem which your periodical, ‘The Catholic
World,” has, through its erudition and per-
spicuity, acquired even among teose who dif-
er from us, etc.

Letter from the Most Rev. Archbishop
of New York,
New York, Feb. 7, 1865.
Dear Fatner Urcker:

I have read the Prospectus which you have
kindly submitted of a new Catholic Magazine,
to be entitled : “The Catholic World,” which
it is proposed publishing in this city, under
your supervision; and I am happy to state
there is nothing in its whole scope and spirit
which has not my hearty approval. ‘The want
of some such periodical is widely and deeply
felt, and Tcannot doubt that the Catholic com-
munity at large will rejoice at the prospect of
having this want, if not fully, at least in a
great measure, supplied,

With the privilege which you have of draw-
ing on the intellectual wealth of Catholic
Europe, and the tiherat means placed at your
disposal, there ought to be no such word as
failure, in your vocabulary.

Hoping that this laudable, enterprise will
meet with well-merited suecess, and under
God's blessing, become fruitful in all the good
which it proposes,

I remain, Rev, Dear Sir, very truly, your
friend and servant in Christ,
JOHN,

Archbishop of New York.

ALL CURES MADE EASY
BY

Holloway’s Ointment.

ne

Bad Legs, Ulcerous Sores, Bad Breasts.

No deseription of wound, sore or ulcer can re-
sist the healing properties of this excellent Oint-
ment. ‘The worst case readily assumes a heal-
thy appearance whenever this medical agent is
applied; sound flesh springs up from the bottom
of the wound, inflammation of tne surrpunding
skin 18 arrested and a complete and permanent
cure quickly follows the use of the Ointment,

Piles, Fistulas, and Internal
Inflammation,

These distressing and weakening diseases may
with certainty be cured by the sufferers them-
selves, if they will ue Holloway’s Ointment,
and closely attend to the printed instructions,
It should be well rubbed upon the neighboring
parts, when all obnoxious matter will be remov-
ed. A poultice of bread and water may some-
times be applied at bed-time with advantage ;
the most scrupulous cleanliness must be ob-
served. If those who read this paragraph will
bring 1t under the notice of such of their ac-
quaintances whom it may concern, they will ren-
der a service that will never be forgotten, as a

cure is certain. ‘

Eruptions, Scald Meads, Ringworm and
other Skin Diseases.

After fomentation with warm water, the ut-
most relief and speediest cure can be readily ob-
tained in all complaints affecting the skin and
joints, by the simultancous use of the Ointment
and Pills, Butit must be remembered that
nearly all skin diseases indicate the depravity of
the blood and derangement of the liver and sto-
mach: consequently, in many cases, time is re-
quired to purify the blood, which will be effeet-
ed by a judicious use of the Pills, The general’
health will readily be improved, although the
eruption may be driven out more freely than be-
fore, and which should be promoted; perseve-
rance is necessary. On the appearance ot any
ot these maladies the Ointment should be well
rubbed at least three times a day upon the neck
and upper part of the chest, so as to penetrate
to the glands, as salt is forced into meat: this
course will at once remove inflammation and
ulceration, The worst cases will yield to this
treatment by following the printed directions.

Scrofula or King’s Evil and Swelling
of the Glands,

This class of cases may ve cured by Hollo-
way's purifying Pills and Ointment, as their
double action of purifying the blood and
strengthening the system renders them more
affable Oran any other remedy for all complaints
of a scrofulous nature. As the. blood is impure,
the liver, stomach and bowels, being much de«
ranged, require purifying medicine to bring

about a cure,

Rheumatism, Gout and Neuralgia.

Nothing has the power of reducing inflamma.
tion and subduing pain in these complaints in
the same degree as Holloway’s cooling Oint«
ment and purifying Pills. hen used sim-
ultaneously they drive all inflammation and de-
pravities from the system, subdue and remove
all enlargement of the.joints, and leave the sin-
ews and muscles lax and tracted. A cure
may always be effected, even under the worst
circumstance, if the use of these medicines be

persevered in,

Both the Ointment and Pills should be used in
the following cases :—

Bad Legs Corns (Softs) | Rheumatism
Bad Breasts [Cancers Sealds
Burns Contracted and Yaws
Bunions Stiff Joints |Skin-diseases
Bites of Mos- |Elephantiasis |Sore-nipples
