be a dangerous insteument in the hands of
a born tyrant like Cardinal Antonelli who

Pious IX., is a scion of a noble Italian

they never contemplated a junction be-

seen if this depth can be maintained, and
if the income Will justify the expeuditure.
The material difficulties having been over-
come, thesewill no doubt be so also. If
the souls,of the arehitecta of the pyramids,
ever return to the scenes of their labours,
they will recognise congenial spirits in the
engineers Of the 19th century. A col-
lateral advantage. to an immense tract of
country,is also gained in the construction,
primarily for the supply of the workmen,
of a fresh -water canal from Cairo to Lake
Timsah and thence to Suez; which will
literally make a desert blossom like the
rose. The success of the work has so in-
spirited unimaginative and cominer-

Rising Sun by travelling westward and
cutting a wider and deeper canal throngh
Central America. So much for progress !

--FATHER RYACLNTHE.
The attitude assumed by this Parisian
"preacher -monk," of the order ef the Car-
melites, is the birth of that Council we
have just described. He is the most elo-
quent and popular preacher of France.
Born at Orleans in 1821 and educated at
Pan, he was ordained a priest at St. Suls-
pice, in 1853. In 1864 he commenced to
preach at the Cathedralof Notre Dame and
there he gained the „brilliant reputation
which has made his protest against the
Council BO influential. While Pope Pius
IX refrained from arraying and aiding the
Ultraniontane party.against the liberal sec-
tion of the church, he would have met with
no opposition from within the, church.
The following extract from a translation
of Father Hyacinthe's letter, to the Gener-
al of his order at Ranee, is interesting and
explains his position :—
" The present hour is solemn. The
Church passes through one of the most
violent, dark, and decisive crises of its
existence here below. For the first time
in 300 yettrs an CEcumehical Council is not
only convoked but declared 'necessary ; such
is the expression of the Holy Father. It
is not in such a moment that a preacher of
the Gospel, were he the least of all, ,can
consent to remain as tn.e mute dogs of Is-
• rael, unfaithful guardians, . whom the
prophet reproaches as unable to bark.
Canes muti. 1 non vatentes latrare. The
saints were never silent. I am not one of
them ; but nevertheless I belong to their
race, ,fitii aancto ram, Remus, and I have al-
ways been ambitious to place my steps,
my tears, and if necessary, my blood, in
the tracks which they have left. I raise,
therefore,- before the Holy Father and
the Council, my protestation DA Christian
and preacher against these doctrines and
practices, calling themaelves Roman, but
which are not Christiau, andevalich in their
encroachments, always most audacious
and most baneful, tend to change the C011-
stitiltion of the Church, the barns as well
as the form of' her teaching, and even
the spirit of her piety. I protest against
the divorce, as impious as it is insane,
which it is sought to aCcomplish between
the Church, who is our mother according
to eternity, and tho society of the nine-
teenth century, of whom we are the sons
accordieg to the times, and toward whom
we have also some duties and attach-
meuts. pretest against this more radical
and dreadful opposition to human nature,
which is attacked and made to revolt by
thdse false doctrines in its most indestruct-
ible and holiest aspirations. I protest,
&Kip alleagainst the sacrilegious perver-
sion of the Word of the Son of God him-
self, the -spirit and the, letter of whica are
equally trodden under foot by the Pharisa-
ism of the new law. It is my most pro-
found conviction that if France in parti-
cular, and the Latin rens in general, are
delivered over to social, moral, and reli-
gious anarchy the principal cause is with-
out doubt not in Catholicism itself, but in
the manner which Catholicism has during
a long time been understood and practised.
I pppeal to the Council about to meet to
stark for remedies for the excess of our
evils, and to apply them with as much
fatceas gentleness. But if fears in which
I do not wish to share come to be realized
—if the august assembly has not more
liberty in its deliberations than A has al-
ready in its preparation—if, in a word, it
deprived of the essential characters of
an. (Ecumenical Council, I will cry to God
aud men to call another truly, united in
the Holy Spirit, not in the spirit of party,
and representing really the Universal
Church, not the silence of some men, the
oppression of others"

AUSTRIA.
The needle -gun of, Prussia hutnbled the
pride of the haughty Hapzburgs. It did
more and better than that, it opened their
eyes to see that they must seek to consoli-
date the provinces left them ; and
it opened their ears to listen to the advice
of the opposition members of thi3 Iheiche-
rath. The wise and progressive constitu-
tional privileges which Austria is granting
to her subjects are beginning toredeem the
errors she committed, and the tyranny she
exercised for centuries, and seem to augur
a political regeneration for CentralEurope.
In three years, a resurrection in Austria has
been accomplish ed as sudden and surprising
asithe startling victories of Prussia -in 1866;
while the latter, though not losing
material power is losing prestige. Austria
is steadily rising in the estimation of the
world, and all the strangely varied mem-
bers of her empire act and think 'in har-
mony with the Government. The dual
system,giving the German provinces their
Ileichsrath and the Hungarian provinces
their Diet, whence are elected representa-
tives to the general Parliament, is working
well and amicably. The granting to Hun-
gary its historical constitution, and the
crowning of Francis Joseph as King,
created 4 temporary jealousy in the Ger-
man portion of theEmpire; which has now
entirely abated. It is pleasant to see one
of the oldest conservative monarchies of
Europe entering brilliantly on a prosper-
ous and peaceful cereer of liberalism..
RUSSIA
Has been working away quietly length-
ening her cords and strenethening her
stakes in Asia. She has not this year gone
beyond the sin of covetousness,of which all
are more or less guilty. Beyond covertly
seeking to raise an insurrection among the
christians in Turkey, endeavoring to em-
barrass Greece, and making coaxing ad-
vances towards the Viceroy of Egypt, very
little is to be chronicled of Russia. She
has made the pleasant diecovery of secret
societies in Mescow which were morking
for the overthrow of the dynasty. The
Knout and Siberia are very effective cares
for such symptoms.
SCANDTNAVLS..
The philologists of Denmark, Sweden
and Norway have organized a Society to
secure the assimilation of the dialects of
the three countries ; with the ultimate
hope of fusing the trio into a grand Scan-
dinavian Empire. They would then be in
a position to resist the intended embraces
of the Russian bear, and to fulfil the des-
tiny suggested by the genius of their early
literature.
SPAIN
This effete, --old kingdom has begun to
try for a new lease of life, by dethroning
her licentious Queen, Isabella. A Repub-
lic a Monarchy -1' That is the question
of the future which i8 not yet solved.
Probably the Duke of -Genoa will be
crowned King; as General Prim, the lead-
ingespirit vf the cotintry, is unfavorable to
a Republic. The blood of her nobility is
getting so intensely blue,by intermarriage,
that the pulses of life are almost stagnant.
An enactment that each hidalgo should
:marry a peasant - wife would be the first
step in spaniel] regeneration. The crown
jewels aye dieappeared and Queen Isabella
denies having stolen CUBA.
In sympathy with the
parent- land,
Cuba has been and is in a state of revolu-
tion. No deubt Spain oppressed the is-
land; butshe has offered the insurgents the
abolition. of slavery and all other redress
demanded. But that is not the object

seeking. Except forithehopesiheld out that

responsible for the cruel and bloody con-
tinuance of this insurrection. The news
from the seat of war is now favorable to-
wards Spain. It is officially announced
in documents laid before congress, that
the United States government never in-
tended to recognise the inaurgenta.
