Ui vleUwy, hut I say It in truth here tonight that his km ha brought disgrace ujsn hi tiante. ( AiUum.) When a man leads our armies U) victory, and it th gteal and grand man that tieneral Sherman was, yon kimt it U a sadness to hi heart whrn bis son becomes a sworn Jly of a foreign power. And Roman tm Is not only a itloul power, but it ta foreign political power. The ixiih it a foreigner; the professors in their chwls, thoir collrgoa, and tho univor lti almobt to a man ara foreignors; nearly all of tholr prioata are for oitfuom, their church Is dominated by aafowlirn InflnitnrHA! tlw l.nrUlnl Inn of their church ih a foreign legMaHum aim uie ut-inun lhi none church (a a foreign political power. (Applauao.) Father Sherman aaya they have ten millions of people in this country. Well, we will accept that for all pur imaea tonight. I don't think they have got that many, but we will say ton million. Then there are ten million subjects of a foreign power in this country, and the Buectea of Romanlam depend upon tho close and specific obedience upon tho part of tho people. Our nation depends upon tho Intelll- lenceiuul the virtue of our citizens, (AppfaiiHe.) There lu not an Intelligent person hero tonight but can aeo in a moment that here ia an lrreprosalblo con ft ie t to n in 11 1 it m'subjecta to a fore I g n power, tho aucceaa of which depends pon olora and apoolfled ohedltsnco In land where every man la a ruler iaana cair aucoeaa depends upon tho In ttilllgenco and the virtue of our people. Ono side or the other must be subdued; ono or tho other must prevail, and there la a conflict In our midst that will 0 on, and mual go on, until It la settled ono way or tho other, and as J look into your facoa here tonight and i fool and real lao tho enthusiasm of your hearts upon this question, I believe It "will be iettled In tho right direction. IJLoud and continued applause.) Father Sherman eloea a very silly thing when ho comet to any city and places himself on exhibition, and culls attention to himself because he la the sson of a great man; so far as tho truth la concerned, so far as the statements ;are concerned, It don't make any differ Hneo whether hla father was a general in the army or a cobbler, his statements must stand or fall upon their own werlt, and he must atand or fall as a iroan pon his own merit, and not upon the merit of his father. (Applause.) Ha itands as the representative of a system,, and that system must bo judged According to Its merits, and he must neither stand or fall with that system according to tho merits that It may have. So I think it la well for ua to cxamlno this question upon Its own tmorits, for Catholicism Is a jwlltlcal -power claiming here the courtesies and tho attention of church when It is not entitled to them. If It has come among us as a church and is wielding a -political power and dictating, or at tempting to dictate our legislation, It Is time for vis to call a halt and say to them that no church can live among ww and receive the courtesies of a church whllo, in fact, It U a political power. -As to whethef or not Romanism is a political power, wo must judge accord ing to the teachings of Romanlam. "When we know what a church teaches, we know what It is. When wo know 'the principles of ft political party, we know what merit to accord to it. Wo know some of the teachings of the canon laws. They have been published published in our papers, read In Ber renous and announcod in lectures, and It ta not necessary ft r mo to repeat ihem. We read in their canon laws that all fciuraan power lies under the wpe; that the -civil power ia subordinate to the aplritual power; that the pope is the vlce-gerent of God among men, and tthat he rules kings and nations by divine right, and that all common wealths, rulers and legislators must raubmit to the will of the pope. It teachea that the pope may annul atate Jawa, and set anldo the laws of any nations which are objectionable to the Homan Catholic church. It claims the right to examine all tbooks before they are published and withhold Hum from publication If It ees fit. It claims the right to control the whole school system.

Ihoy tent h that any tthltgatlon U which Rome U net a parly U mill and Void. They Um h that the fimt alltlantHi of Roman I'atiiolitit ia duo to Romn am) the rhvmh. Klint, lant and always they U h. Ii ttiHt the alleglanee of Rt- man Catholic is due to the nit ami the church, and 1 want to ak ytu if, In the light of that fact, any Roman Catholic can bo a loyal cltUcn? (Cries of "No, no.") Tho council of Constance decreed that no fahh was to l kept with here tics, and that decree of (Tonstanco la on record as a part of their law Unlay. And there Is no faith to bo kept with ft heretical nutlon, or a heretic of any kind. Then these Roman Catholics say that whatever sin they coin mil tho priest can forgive them, so If a Roman Catholic should violate his oath to the United StateB how quickly th priest could forgive him. (Applause.) I ask again, what assurance can a Roman Cawholio give of his alleglanco to this nation, or any other nation on tho face of the earth? He la first and always a Reman Catholic. Did you notice the letter of authority that the pope sent to Satolll? Just at tho close of that letter ho said to him: "Whatever penalties you lnfllot, and what sentences you pronounce we will sustain, ctmstilHtitm and npoalolk utith ority to the contrary noUrithnUtmlivg.." And what did that mean? It simply meant that the power of popery was be hind Satolll to enforce his commands and make his acts binding even though tho constitution of tho United States, and of tho states of tho Union wero op posed to him. (Applause.) And when a class of men are sworn to' support popery, and aro sworn to be loyal to Romanism first, last and always, I can see no possible way for them to bo loyal oltlseu. ,of thu -United States. (Ap plauseWe lct men to office and the jBrsl thing they do is to take an outh U dupiHirt thott$Uutlon of tho statu- find of thir Unk($ States, and when we ".loot a Romanist and ho comes up before the officer and awears to sup port that constitution, I want to know how much It means, when he has a mental reservation, as long as It does not conflict with my allegiance to Rome. How much does It mean when Rome Is a political power and may make war, and It does make war? Here only two or three years ago tho popo set aside seven millions of dollars for war pur poses. When there is a political party in the Held a political power here that holds the allegiance of all its members in this way, I say they cannot very well be loyal citizens of this gov ernment, and cannot and ought not to hold office among ua. (Applause.) Father Sherman spent a good deal of his time telling you how many Roman Catholics foughton the battle Held, and how gome of them blod and died, but ho didn't tell you that Roman Catholics shed the blood of our "Martyred Presi dent," Abraham Lincoln. (Applause ) He didn't tell you that far more than half of the deserters that left the army during the war of the rebellion were Roman Catholics, and that the pope sent a letter with hla blessing to Jeff Davis. He failed to tell you that. . There Is ono great difuoulty with us In this country; there are so many of our people who say, "There are a great many of these Roman Catholics who will not finally hold to the church; If there should oomo any great test, In the end they will bo loyal to tho country." And let mo say to you that la one of tho weaknesses of some of our Protestant ministers. They will preach a sermon on Romanism, and wind it up by saying that in tho end a great num ber of Roman Catholics would not hold to the church If thore should come any great test. To bo Continued. A Pitiful Case. An old man attended at the North London police court on Saturday and desired to thank the magistrate for as sistance given him In obtaining a sum of money. Tho man Is elghty-flvo years of ago, and his equally aged wlfo saved about 'M, and when she died It was found she had bequeathed tho whole of the money to tho Roman Cathol Ic church In Tottenham Court-road, for the purpose of setting up a statue to St. Joseph. Tho wishes of thedetseased were carried out, but the husband thought it hard that he should not have been consultod in the matter, more especially as he was very poor, 4 i VI, i. ;' -i , t-n (to,'.-, lit ; I'll k (1 I'l.
