DEAR Sta,-The propositions con-
demned by Pope IX. are generally mis-
understood, and incorrectly quoted by
non-Catholics. A little work entitled
"the Syllabus for the People" gives the
condemned propositions and how to
interprete them. In the Syllabus we
read: "Every one of Mr. Gladstone's
blunders on the score of condemned
propositions proceeds from the Right
Honorable gentleman's substituting
contraries instead of contradictories Co
the condemned propositions. Mr.
Gladstone's version from the latin is
so distorted and untrue that we can-
not forrn its contradictory without
making the Pope say what he never
intended to say. I know a>any honest
Protestants think that whatever the
Church defines, she defines as of faith;
that the eighty condemned proposi-
tions are eighty heresies in the eyes
of Rome, and the eighty contradictories
are so many articles of faith. This is
ar ntiseonception. Opinions may he
censured as heretical, or as approach-
ing to heresy, or as dangerous, or as
offensive to pious ears, or as erroneous,
etc.. All the censures except the first
are called minor censures." Often non-
Catholic controversialists refer to
canon law. Their quotations however
on examination are not found in
.fdonnan Canon haw. Condemned or
unauthorized commentators, of the
Beale are quoted now and again in
order to misrepresent Catholic teach-
ing A Protestant who desires to
know the truth on this questio• can
always borrow a Catholic Bible from
his neighbor and examine for himself
the notes as found in an approved
Catholic Bible. This is the best way
to get at the tr•uth.t Where is no end to
the forgeries now in circulation to in-
jure the Catholic church. Lafayette,
a Catholic, speaking of America, said :
"If the liberties of the American peo-
ple are destroyed, they will not fall by
the Roman clergy." Some make hits
say the contrary, what he never said.
ft is said that Wilkes Booth was a
Jesuit, and that he assassinated Presi-
dent Lincoln. Booth was not a Jesuit.
He was a Protestant. It is also said
that Guiteau was a Catholic, and that
he assassinated Garfield. Guiteau w'as
a Protestant, and a rnecuher of the
Bapist church. The rn,n•derers of the
two Presidents, Lincoln and Garfield,
were Protestants. I have before me
the Patriotic American of June 18,
1803. One of its articles is headed,
Popish Oaths. Then follows. forms
of alleged oath taken by cardinals,
bishops, priests, &c. No such oaths
are taken by any one in the ranks of
the Catholic Clergy or by any person
in the Catholic church. They are like
other documents which are circulated
to injure its. They are fnr•geries. It
is said that the Pope has written a
hook which is on the Irfdex. This also
is untrue. The pri vate Chain of
the Pope has lately written to the
Standard correcting this false report
which has been widely circulated by
the press. Some are always speaking
of Catholics as religious persecutors,
and as if their own hands were with
out stains. For ,t refutation of this we
have 'proofs even in our own land.
Who first proclaimed civil and relig-
ions liberty on this American contin-
ent? The Catholics of Maryland.
Who in this country persecuted every
one who differed with there in re-
ligious belief? The Protestant, Puri-
tans of the New England States.
"There never has been," says the Rey.
Mr. Williams, a Church of England
minister, "a greater fraud of history
perpetrated than all the gush about
the Pilgrim Fathers establishing civil
and religious liberty in this land.
That was as far from their thoughts as
it was from the though L9 of Cromwell's
troopers in Ireland. Brother Green is
an unmitigated humbug when he
asserts that the Pilgrims made New
England a land of refuge and delight
for any one but men of their own
stripe, and not much of delight for
even those, except for the elders and
magistrates in the hanging of some Of
the Quakers, and in the whipping of
others at the cart's tail, and the banish-
ing of Baipists and others to Narra-
gansett flay, for denying the right of
the civil Magistrate to whip, imprison
and hang for heresy" -The Parish
Messenger, Oinitba, • 18413. Some un-
charitably lt8serti that 'the Catholic
chatrtrh' ill a i`n'"ti•i:'hriaatian. The Church
of England 'Minister jit'9t qquoted refers
ixi tilt• very* question. "No part of the
Christian church," says this rev. gentle-
man, "Can' show a more indomitable
courage and devotion, a more ti reles
spirit 'far the conversion of heathen
men and savages, at every cost of com-
fort, (ff eaase, of home, of worldly ad -
ventage, of life itself than the Roman
^34
Catholic church. Her priests penetrate
into every heathen fitatness; her nuns
also, On every battlefield her sisters
forego the natural weakness of their
womanhood, to minister to the dying,
on the warswept field of slaughter.
They are found by day and by night in
the plague -swept cities of the
land and in the hospitals afraid the
dead, and dying, and the suffering.
When in Memphis and New Orleans
Protestant min:sters fled- many of
theist,, before the horrors of the
yellow fever, the Roman Catholic
priests stood' like' men to their posts,
some of them to die beside their more
manly Protettant brethren, and the
men of the red cross and sisters also."
After condemning in the streugest
those who malign priests And nuns,
this reverend gentleman continues,
"They give daily proof of heroic cour-
age and rare devotion on behalf of the
bodies of souls of men and women
without waiting to inquire what their
creed or nation is." At the Episcopal
church congress, held in Chichering
hall, New York, in November, 1893, the
Rev. Dr. Kirbus said ; "For large
numbers the Roman Catholic church
provided a satisfactory religion, and
they should not be disturbed in their
belief." The Rev. Dr. Dumbell, of
Staten Island, said : "The Church of
Route is a true branch of Christianity;
her sacraments, valid sacraments; her
priests, real priests. The average Ro-
manistknows more of the doctrine of
Christianity than we do," -Catholic
Times. Rev. Dr. Rainsford a few
nights ago said in Brooklyn : "The
Catholic Church is strong because far
better than we Protestants do, she
stands by the poor." Heaven Our
Home, a Protestant work, published
by William P. Viinrno, Edinburgh, p p
212, 213, 214, says : "The Bible gives a
description of Gods dealing with this
world during the long period of nearly
four thousand years; and during the
whole of that long history, we are by
many incidental expressions reminded
of the intense solicitude which angels
feel in what is going on not in heaven
merely, but on the earth also. These
missions and that interest will only
terminate when at the last day the
earth itself shall he burned up. The
glorified members of the human family
who are in heaven feel an interest in
us who are upon the earth. You may
perhaps never now think about them:
but rest assured, he verily persuaded
of this that they feel an interest in you
still." The Rev. T. T. Carter, M. A.,
Rector of Clewer Berks, says in the
preface of his book for daily devotion,
entitled The Treasury of Devotion, that
his desire "was to supply a body of
devotions in faithful accordance with
the truest standards of the Church of
England." On page 10 of this work
this Protestant clergyman prays thus:
"May the intercession of the holy
Mother of God, of the Prophets, of the
holy Apostles, of the Martyrs, help
the•! , May all the Saints and Elect of
God pray for me, that I may be worthy
with thein. 'to possess the kingdom of
God. Amen. May the holy angels,
especially my own guardian, keep
watch around me throughout this day,
to protect me against the assaults of
the evil one, to suggest to me holy
thoughts, to defend me against all
dangers, to lead um in the perfect way
of peace, and bring me safe, at length,
to my home in heaven." When this
Protestant Minister prays to the angels
and the Saints he asks only the assist-
ance of their prayers. Previous to
doing so he desires, he wishes that God
would bless and prbtect hirn. This
very desire or wish is in itself a direct
prayer to God. In addition to this
prayer to God, he calls upon inverhal
or vocal prayer the angels and the
saints -pure and holy spirits, loving
and faithful friends of God, to assist
hits at the throne of Mercy that he
may the better obtain his prayer from
God. 'Tts when he makes use of
such a font) of prayer he is not alone
praying at the throne of Grace. He
has with 111111 pure and stainless spirits.
The thousands of Protestants who use
the Rev. T. T. Carter's Treasury of
Devotion pray in the sante manner.
This form of prayer though not strict-
ly necessary for salvation, the Council
of Trent tells us is "good and useful."
Hence it is that Catholics often have
recourse to such prayer. Admitting
the fact that we can be saved without
the prayers of others, yet we know
from scripture that the prayers of
others can avail us much. prayers
cannot
do too much in the work of our salva-
tion. The misfortune is that we are
inclined to risk too Much and do loo
little for a work of such importance.
The Rev. Canon Humble, a Protest -
and clergyman, in "The Church and
World," 1866. says :
"The high morality of Ireland is
owing, in great part., to the habit of
the people (Catholics) going to confes-
sion, and the low tone of ruorals in
Scotland is. I fear, to be greatly at-
tributed to the impossibility of having
recourse to this sacramental ordin-
ance."
i)r. Forbes, a Protestant, and Tine of
Het. Majesty's physicians, in his
"Menairandunis Made in Ireland,"
says:
"The result of my inquiries is that,
whether right or wrong in n theologi-
sal or rational view, this instrument
of confession is, among the Jlish of the
humbler classes, a direct preservative
against certain for 1118 immorality, at
least. " " Among other charges pre-
ferred against the confession in Ire-
land and elsewhere is the fac•ilit,y it
affords for corrupting the ternale mind,
arel of its actually leading to such cor-
ruption. So far front such corruption
resulting from the confessional, it is
the general belief in Ireland -a belief
expressed to ute by many trustworthy
men in all parts of the country,
both Protestants as well as Catho-
lics - that the singular purity of
female life among the lower
classes there is, in a considerable
degree, owing to this very circum-
stance. With a view of tasting, as
far as was practicable, the truth of the
theory respecting the influence of con-
fession on this branch of morals, I
have obtained, through the courtesy of
the Poor Law Commissioners, a return
of the number of legititnate and
illegitimate children in the work-
houses of each of the four provinces of
Ireland on a particular day. It is
curious to remark how strikingly the
results there conveyed correspond with
the confession theory; the proportion
of illegitimate children coinciding al-
most exactly with the proportion of
the two religions in each province ;
being large *here the Protestant ele-
ment is large and small where it is
small?"
Another writer, Mr. William Gil-
bert, in an article in the Christian
World, 1884, states that,:
"While under the guidance of their
priests, Irishwomen, as a class, enjoy,
and with Pieties, -a., reputation for re-
spectablility of comluet, unsurpassed,if
equalled, by any women to the
world."
A few weeks ago the Rev. A, ii.
Collonf pastor of the Sarah D. Cooper
Memorial Church, Philadelphia, took
for his text: "Blessed art thou among
women," He said I
"We call your attention to the hon-
ored Mother of Our Lord, believing
this subject has not syi'Iiciently engag-
ed the attention of the Protestant,
Church. The extravagance of divines
on the ono hand, and their general
silence on the other, leaves too little
said In honor of her whom all nations
should call blessed. This human in-
strument, by which God gave His Son
to the world should be honored. Her
name should live in our memory and
dwell upon our lips as do the names of
the prophets and apostles. She was a
distinguished favorite of Heaven, as
some have rendered the angel's saluta-
tion.
"We ought notio pass by unnoticed a
character so lovely as hers. Heaven
bestowed on her more than princely
honors. Hers was a superior kind,
well stored with a knowledge of the
Holy Scriptures. In her song of praise
we see her knowledge of fall and re-
demption through the promised
seed of the woman. She reviews
the past and celebrates the praise
of God for His marvelous work
and as one of God's double -sight-
ed seers looks to the future and rejoices
in what He would yet do for His
Church. Those who are honored of
God in His work are distinguished tor
their knowledge of His word and faith
in Hie power.
"The Virgin Mary-[ do not hesitate
to call her the Blessed Virgin, for an
angel gave her the title -was distin-
guished for her faith. Zacharias saw
the apparent contradiction between
science and revelation, and doubted.
Not so with the Jewish maiden, when
she heard the more mysterious an-
nouncement, Thou shalt bring forth a
son, and shall call his name Jesus.'
Her question, `Whereby shall I know
this? was, doubtless, inspired, as the
answer furnishes the only key to the
Lord's Itouraculate Conception.
Among all examples of faith, none
equals that of the mother (>1 the Son of
God. As she was only human, she did
not always understand herr Divine Son,
hut when she did not she had His say-
ing in her heart.
"Her obedience to the Divine will
should be imitated by all who love the
Lord and would be co -laborers in sav-
ing a world of sinners. When the an-
gel told her how the Divine purpose
would be accomplished, she replied,
'Behold the handmaid of the Lord, be
it done unto Inc according to Thy
word 1' Such a spirit if manifested by
all who are called of God into different.
departments of His work, would al-
most convert the nations Of the earth
in a day. How many doubts might
have prevented compliance with God's
will, hut she obeys withoutdispiltation.
No one ever left more in God's hands to
be adjusted by Him when she said,
'Behold the hancrnaid of the Lord.'
Our obedience may form a link in a
cbnin of circinnstrnces whose wide
sweep will save multitudes of sinners,
and our disobedience cause as many to
be lost.
"The fact that Mary belonged to the
humbler walks of life gives greater
glory to the Son. Oh 1 the wondrous
redeeming love 1 Christ assumed our
nature, was born of woman under the
law to redeem there that were under
the law. The Virgin is honored, and a
world is redeemed. This is good news
for all people. If by woman roan re-
ceived the fruit of which he ate and
died, by woman he receives a Saviour
on whom he may look and live. 'Be-
hold the Lamb of God that taketh
away the sins of the world."' -Philadel-
phia Ledger.
Taking for his text "Why I am a
Protestant." Dr. Gladden said :
"In this hrief sketch of the ancient
Greek Church with whirh most of you
are not, I dare say, very well acquaint-
ed, I have indicated by comparson,
some of the principal features of the
Rornan Catholic Church, with which
you are somewhat better acquainted.
Still it would not be safe to assume
that. you are all very well acquainted
with the Roman Catholic Church.
People may live very e near together
andnotknow each other verywell.
Most of you have learned what you
know about the Roman Catholic Church
from hostile or prejudiced sources.
We are inheritors of a hitter conflict,
a religious conflict; and history shows
that there ru•e no influences which so
completely close the mind against the,
truth as those which at•e engendered
by religious strife.
INVOCATION OF 'TILE SAINTS.
"i have no doubt, for example, that
most of you would say, unhesitatingly
that Roman Catholics worship the
saints, and the Virgin Mary; lout that
is not quite true. There may he ig
nor ant, ltolnarl Catholics of whore it is
true; just, as there are a great many
Protestants who believe that there are
three Gods; het it is not the Catholic
doctrine. All Catholics are taught that
God, and God amine, is an object of
worship; their catechism, as one auth-
ority says, "demonstrates the great
difference there is between the wanner
of imploring God's aid and assistance
and that of the saints; for it expressly
declares that the Catholics pray to God
either to bestow on them some hl(•ss-
ing, or to deliver them from some mis-
fortune; hut since the saints are more
acceptable in His sight, than they are
they beg to there to he their advocates
only, and to procure for them such
things as they want. For which rea-
son the Catholics make use of two
forms of prayer widely different from
each other, for when they make their
application to God Himself, they say,
'Have mercy on us l hear us!' But
when they address themselves to the
saints they only say, 'Pray for us! In
all cases whether the prayer is direct
or indirect, the favor is expected from
God alone."
"I am sure that this distinction is
perfectly clear and intelligible; and
yet'l doubt whether one Protestant in
ten ever recognized it. Indulgences.
DOCTRINE OF INDULGENCES.
"So, too, with] respect to the doc-
trine of Indulgences. I suppose that
tnost Protestants believe that the
Romram Catholics are able to purchase
for money permission to sin; -that the
Indulgence is a kind of license which
is sold for mgney, to, gratify one's ap-
petite and passions. Statements of
about this nature have been made in
school histories; and when Roman
Catholics objected to such hooks, the
Protestants have conte to the rescuer
and declared that the obnoxious state-
ments should nut, he modified. But

6 SITP H;R=01-� TO H PR=NT=NC-_
this is not the Roman CLth.licdoctr•ine
of Indulgences. No Catholic is ever
able to procure any license tor future
wrong -doing, Nothing like that was
ever conceived of by any intelligent
Roman Catholic, Nor is there any
way of procuring absolution from past
sins, except by confessing them to
God, and receiving, through the
priest, His pardon. The payment. of
money has nothing to do with this.
But the Roman Catholic doctrine is
that a sinner who has confessed and
forsaken his sins must yet do works
Ines for f t lepenGLnce; that the Clhurc•h
has a right to impose upon such a
Ipenitent. certain works of penance.
t is discipline prescribed for hint. on
account of his transgression. Now tl;e
Church holds that this discipline, which
consists of fasts, pilgrimages, or other
meritorious works, may be commuted
by charitable gifts or dnnetinns of
money. Just as the courts sometimes
substitute fines for punishments. so the
Church reserves the right to substitute
contributions of this sort in lieu of her
other discipline. But it, must he ob-
served that an Indulgence can he

and confessed and been forgiven;
that, in the words of Bishop Keane, it
is not, the r•enlission rat' sin nor of the

less is It a permission to commit sir) in
the future. It is a modification of the
Church discipline.
“Doubtless the doctrine was itself
grossly misrepresented and abused by
those who in Luther's tinge went about
kawking indulgences ; and the strong
words with whirh Luther denouneed
this abuse were well deserved. But
we must. he careful when we talk shout,
it to know not nler•ely what, extrayag-
•int men have said in public harangues,
but what is the real doctrine of the
Church. Let me quote the defini-
tions of this word in the Century Dic-
tionary --A remission of the punish-
ment which is still clue to sin after
sacramental absnllition : this remission
being valid in the court of conscience
and before God, and being made by an
application of the treasure of the
('hureh on the part of a lawful super-
iors.
"Indulgence cannot, he obtained for
unforgiven sin. Before anyone can
obtain for hinlself the benefit of an In-
dulgence, the guilt must have been
washed away and the eternal punish-
ment, if his sin has been mortal, must
have been forgiven."
CIRCULATION OF FALSEHOODS.
"I am sure that these defini-
tions roust convince a good many of
you that you have been told a great
many things about Roman Catholics
which are grossly untrue. In fact I
think that tbere are very few
Protestants rvho do not entertain
very distorted notions about, Catholic
belief. If it were not so it would not
be possible for such execrahle forger-
ies hs are constantly circulating
through this community to have
any currency - forgeries in which
the most monstrous beliefs and pur-
poses are attributed to Rrornan Catho-
lics -beliefs and purposes of which
they are as innocent as unborn ha hes.
The black art of calumny has long
been practiced in this world. One
who is somewhat. familiar with the
history of controversy has met with a
good many samples of it; but it is my
belief that nothing more wickedly (((1-
uurnious was ever concocted than
many of the stories ahout, Roman
Catholic's which have been freely
circulated through this community for
the past two years. i suppose that
many of those who have sir --dated
these calumnies have believed them
to he true. 1 have, therefore,
taken pains to give you, in two
simple instances, illnstratinns of
the kind of nujust judgment
which is current, that you may hewnre•
of bearing false witness against your
neighbor.
