Dr, Morrison, bis subject being “The Interpretation of the Sacred Scriptures. After showing how it was possible to misconsirue the ecrip- tures aud pOimting out the importance of having some assis. in interpreting them, Dr. Morrison c'aimed that the Charch—the pillar and ground of truth—was the custodian of God’s legislation and its D.vinelyappointed iater- preter. If every one was allowed to interpret the constitution and the laws of a country accarding to his own ideas whet a deplorable condition of affairs would arise. Hence the constitution of jadges and courts to prop= e.ly interpre: the laws. If judges and courts are necessary to explain the Jaws of the land how ruch more importan. is it that there should be some recognized authority to interpret the script- ures, which are so often misconstrued, | The Charch is not above the scripiures aay more than the judge is above the law; its mission is to explatn their true seuse and set aside doubis which may arise. The exposition of Catholic docirine upon this point was very cl-ar, and the discourse wae followed with ihe close t atteation by the large cong: egation. “eee wee @e DW «eee © owes 8 é ; Everybodys 4; Pills ‘ 4 Possess so many desirable qualities that if ycu ence used them, you well always give them the preference as a general family cathartic.
