Chioaoo, 111., Oct. IB, 1868.
To-day closet the Kansas excursion of tUe
General Ticket Agents and their frien Is, and a
more entertaining, pleasant, and successful
party has never been gathered together or
mora agreeahlr carried through than this.
Ton will recollect it started from St. Louis last
BMnrdaj morniafe, the 0th, after the olose of
the General Tioket Agents' Semi-annual Cou
Tentlon, prooeeded as far west as Ogallah Sta
tin, on the Union 1'acifio Railway,
Eastern Division, 319 miles west of
Kansas City, Allied twelve buffaloes or
bison tcl wounded as many morei
fpltoessed the delightful country of the vast
plains of the great West, in whtoh are the
aplendid lands of the National Land Company,
offered at such very low prices to purchasers,
passing comfortable nights in Sed.tlia, Ml,
Ballna, Kansas, St. Joseph, Mo., and Qnincy,
111., and aniving here, in the leading city of
the West, without accident or auything to mar
the harmony and pleasant asBOoiations of
either participant, inside of a week, illustrates
what is being done every day through the
admirable railroad system of the country,
and the remarkable management of the skilled
and attentive attaches of the respective rail,
road companies.
Leaving Quincy, in the three Tallman can
referred to in my last letter, in the morning,
we rapidly passed over the Chicago, Burling
ton, and Quinoy Railroad, in oharge of Ilarrv
Starring, Esq., the popular General Baggage
Agmt, aud General K. R. Wadaworth, the
General Freight Agent of this company. On
Borne portions of the Chicago, Burlington, and
Quincy Road we ran at the rate of tixly milts an
hmir, and although travelling at such a high
rate of speed there was no alarm en the part of
any of the tourist.?, bat a surprising degree of
pleasure. The road was so smooth and the
motion of the cars so delightful
that the extraordinary speed wa?
enjoyed rather than feared. The road run3
northwest from Quincy, through a country of
remarkable fertility, beauty, and interest,
and a trip over it convinces the traveller of its
deserved popularity. Ho corporation in the
Union can boast of a more efficient or ener
getic set of officials each one proficient in his
peculiar line of duty, and ever on the wat.su
to render the passenger cafe and his or her
transit easy and comfortable.
There are several very fine, nourishing
towns on this road, the largest one being
Aurora, 40 miles from Chicago, in which
the principal shops of the Chicago,
Burlington, and Quincy Railroad are
located, and where all the celebrate!
Pullman cars are built, as well as the
oompany's elegant passenger cars. Aurora ii
Situated on Fox river, and contains a popula
tion of 19,000. It is a place of considerable
manufacturing importance, and a point of
heavy shipment of grain, wool, and pork. The
City Hall is a magnificent building, and many
of the stores and private residences are larara
and oommodious. There are two woollen mills,
three flouring mills, and several manufactories
In Aurora.
Mendota, the junotion with the Illinois Cen
tral Railroad, 84 miles from Chicago, has 5000
inhabitants. Situated in an nndalating prai
rie, on an eminence, it commands an exten
eive view of country. It contains two flour
ishing colleges and several manufactories and
mills.
Princeton, 112 miles from Chicago, has a
population of 7000. This is one of the most
enterprising towns of its size in Illinois, beau,
tifully located, and inhabited by live and
exceedingly hospitable people. It is the
county seat of Bureau county, and sur
rounded by a country prolifio in its produc
tion of cereals and wool. The court-house is
a large and elegant building, and infinitely
Superior to your Philadelphia hall of justice'
Some of the stores are quite large and hand'
some, and among them that of Rawson
Brothers, who do an immense trade.
Kewanee, 132 miles from Chioago, has 3000
inhabitants, and Galva, 140 miles, 3000. Both
are thriving towns and important business
centres.
Galesburg, 165 miles from Chicago, is rapidly
improving, and already contains a population
of 15,000. It is the junction of the Peoria
branch road, 53 miles long, and destined to
become a large city. A female seminary is
looated in the place.
Monmouth, 179 miles from Chioago, has
4000 inhabitants; Macomb, 203 miles, 5000;
and Burlington, 20G miles, 20,000. This latter
city is in Iowa, situated on the Mississippi
river, 45 miles above Keokuk and 250 above
St. Louis. It is a city of rapid growth, and
one of the mo3t beautiful in the West.
Peoria, on the branch road, is on the Illinois
river, 70 miles north of Springfield, and 215
from Chioago by rail. The river being navi
gable in all stages of water by steamboats
renders it quite a commercial centre. There
are regular lines of packets running to St.
Louia and through the Illinois and Michigan
Canal to Chicago.
The Chicago, BuriiuBton, and Quincy Rail
road Company is becoming 0( tue mo3t
Influential in the Western country, .betides
the main stem, 205 miles long, there are
branch roads from Galesburg to Burlington,
42 miles long; from Galesburg to Peoria, 53
miles; from Yates City, on the Peoria roal, to
Lewiston, 53 miles, which is . being extended
further south to Rushville, 30 miles; and from
Aurora to Galena Junction, 12 miles, connect
ing with the Chioago and Northwestern Rail
Toad Another road is being constructed from
Galva to New Boston, on the Mississippi river,
84 miles. When these improvements are com
pleted the Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy
Sallroad Company will own, control, and
operate 609 miles of road.
Messrs. Starring and Wadsworth and Samuel
Powell, General Tioket Agent of this road,
Lave placed all the excursionists under many
obligations for their kindness, attention, and
ffoits to please their guests andtoeahibit the
nnmerouB rich soencs in the beautiful oountry
through which we have passed to-day.
Afur passing Gulnflburg a meeting was

The N. Y, Wurld publishes the following upon

"Before the clnse of ihls century solemn mass will

These words are not those of Lord M icaulay
eeekinfi lor a striking rhetorical expression to
conclude a mugnitictnt period, but tie calm,
carefully weighed opinion ot a Catholic writer,
Joseph, Count de ilaistre. Uttered home decen
niums tince, they mutt have then appeared
visionary ; even to-day, to those accustomed to
tbe do grow th ot popular revolutions espe
cially those of religious thought they con
tain au improbable pioposition which it is
difficult to realize as the truth. Yet, who
shall eay, in iew of the mighty rel.ious throes
of the churches, that they were not in a
senxe prophetic, and that belore the last days
ot l'JUU are with the years of the past,
such a rcheious revolution may not have oc
curred? Jto'thing could at the preseut moment
be moie foreign to the ordinary Euglisb. mind
than any change "masswards." Yet, there are
minds at work in the Anglican communion
whose professed object ii to "unprotestattlza tuo
Church;" not with the intention of making it
Koman, but to erect a barrier between Uouian
ism and Augltcunism, or, belter still, to create a
spirit of mutual concession aad promote the
complete reunion of the Chutcaei.
There is unquestionably a mighty strncgle in
the Englivb rclUioug m ud at preseut. On ono
side stands the ltoman Catholic Church, to atl
appeaiauccs bteuUiastly holding its own, and
even making Mdvancea in its attempt to become
the popular Church. On tbe other U the Aueli
can Church, divided into three great parlies,
the Low Church, rejecting as far as possible
ceremonies or rites ai ''superbtitiom muin
rariies," the Mcdciate High Caurch, holding
more liberal views on the.-e point, aui the ultr
KitualiBts, who go so lar as lo introduce a lull
ritual, and boldly suy that tbo riles and cere
monial they adopt are but the external
and explanatory signs of tome'.hins real
though mystical aud spiritual. Tuo Law
Church party regard the Ritualists as
"Komaidzcrs," and perhaps '-scniiddolatrous."
The more moderate High Church mea ttuut
that the ultra K.tuulisu ate to use the words
of a distinguished New York elereyniau ' on
the outposts ot Homuuism," while the Kttualists
thinK of themselves that they conform more
rigidly to the ancient di-ci dine- aud do na of
tbe Anglo-Catholic Church nud of the other
divisions of pucof:aliaiiiin; t a it one section is
drivme the people Vt infidelity, and the other
mdulfinir in unmeaning theatiicul display. The
Homani.-ts had tho entire Hitualisiic movement

bring to their fold thoe who eupae in it.

retormers, in their zeal against supposed
or. ru,1 fapal ubtisoj, weut too far, it is con
sidered, in excluding rites and Uio ImpoMiig

element of thought went in brinsing this about
may be imagined. But all mindi are not or a
cast-iron mould, and the want ot mstaetic addi
tions to devotion ha9 been again recognized.
Why ceremonials, rictures, Images, vestments,
lights, flowers, inceuee, and, above all. music,
should not be employed in churches, it is
difficult to see, if provision Is made (or their
proper use. In Eueland, Ireland, and In some
of the churches here, timid exertions have
been made to introduce them gradually some
times almost at the risk of tho parson's lire,
as in one ot the Dublin churches. There has
alto grown to respectable dimensions a body
which says: "If you use bows, light aud
flowers, why limit or lo that? Let us take tbe
old bona fide ritual of the English. Church, that
used in Karam, aud let us carry it out in perfec
tion." It goes further, after tbe admission of
this idea is made, aud says: "What dp these

On Fortj-seveuth ktret, between Loxlngtoti
and KoiirtU avenues, the Protestant Upl cooal
Chapl of 8t. Albuu's is pituaied. Extern tlly
there is little to dietinguixh it Iro n many of tne
smaller ard more modest cnurches oi the city.
The crofies w h cb surmount each md arc uot nn
tuupual addition to nn Amcrirau Episcopal
chnpel. Inside, the windows smiply atalucd and
"unui'dured," the three rows of polished seats
aud even the pnloit would not be out of place in
tiie slric est Puiilan conventicle, iliutuianot
that lhat makes this li'tle chtircli so importatit
or so unns-util. At the end generally occupied
by the preach ins dc-k or by the p'am e immii
lilou table ol an Fnghsh church, there la ra led
oil a "Satctuary" or choir in which an Imposing
structure rises. One el nice at this satisies the
vl?i'or that it is an altar such hs Archbishop
McCioskey might otlicia'.e at in his cathedral.
The tninlatcrlal porttou of the church eievuH'd
by steps above tbe part allotted to the laity
consists of two parts; the outer, in which the
cboristeis nud attendant priests are seated and
which corre-pc nds to the eho r ot a collegiate
chnpel; the iuner, in which the altar is pmced
and which is railed off by a co uiuuniou rail.
The roof over this part ot ihe church Is hini
poniely decoratcil ii green or blue und gol 1.
That trcioil modification of the cross forms 1
by three large ECfiments of a ciicle, so
luiiuli r to the student of ecclesia-tieal
ortmroent. Is freqiientlv found on the
li eld of the root. Tue transverse bcaois are
imcrtbul with the words Ai elmafi. Tne altar is
ot the I'sual ltoimin Catholic lorin. The accent
to it is made by three narrow s'eps, aud the
last Is a wide "plane" ou which the priest
officiates at Mass. The altar ia a lorned as in a
Koman Catholic church. An an'ependiuni of
the color ot the fea-t depend in Iront. On a
ruiFcd ledge there arc placed a cracidx, candles,
(lower vases, but ihere is no tabernacle. 'Ihe
wall behind the aliar is suitably decorated, and
over the crticiox is u will knovt n p'tcturi0 of the
"Aqnus Iki,' carrying a cress. Nevtthe crn'iitix
there are ou ordinary fe.st.va's but two candles,
while around the altar lire candelabra. On the
light bund or epistle skin of the altar is the cre
dence table or cruet stand. These points will at
once show the remarkable solidarity ot tho altar
of H. Alban's aud it3 surroundings to those of a
Roman Catholic church. Tue ideality is almost
perhct. But this is not all. Tlin ceremouul
used at the mass performed beneath its root us to
like that used at a ilmilar service in the iOiikiu
churches, th'it to one accustjins t to the differ
ence bet wi cn rrdiuary Protestantism and Catho
licism the similarity ii labuloup. This similarity
will be mice I further ou; in the meantime, a
few word about the pastor of the cluirch,
"Fathir" Moirill. as his flock love to call
him, nnd his particular tenets, will ncitbr bo
uir nti-i-,. feting nor lorcign to the subject of this
article.
THE PRISST OF ST. A T.U
In one of the transepts of St. Alban's there is
a little room cut off' from the rest of the bald
ing. Jn position it miuht answer lor asucristy;
in actual use it is employed as the etndy and
recelving-ioom of the pastor, Katlier Morrill.
Been thioii'jh the hal.'-op.'u oaken door it has a
pleasant louk the. coal die, the b ioks and pic-
lUItb, KlVII'e; it uu ut tmumit ivlilob lilo-
rary man, it no other, can appreciate. Enter, at
the polite invitation ol its occunnnt.and be seated
in that easy chair which stinds vacant lor the
casual visitor. The room, we said, was a peasant
one. It is not larce. Its half-carpeted lloor. the
doors, the extraordinary little windows, the cup
board and tbe hookcate. the writing-stand, a lew
exquisite prints, and a larae chtomo irresistibly
iiioiente tbe sanctum of a student. A glance at
the books and at a parchment-bound folio, with
bibulous leaves and rubrics staring out uoiu the
page in their peculiar red letter, the subject of
ihe punts; a tbuiible in the cori-er; and, ab ive
all, the picture of 8t. Bernard, that wonderful
nionaMic re former, indicate tho prtv v'b room of
a embolic clcreymuu. Does a elance at the
pertly form and pleasing lace of ths genihtm in,
still ytnntf, who occupies that curved onk
chuir, ditsipute the i.iea? He is a com
fort itle-leoking ltoman Catholic cler'?ym,in.
heboid nil doubt. His dress in of the u.OBt
clerical hue; his coat is of the moU clerical
cut. well made, buttoned close under the
throat, (.vtr which the "Roman collar" ap
pears: Ihe waistcoat displayed and crossed
diagonally by a hamifome nnd tatcfal gold
chain. Tnis is Father Morrill. lu bis personal
appearance there is little to ioaica'e unusual
ability as one ot the characteristics of Dr.
Morrill; his head is of that order which m.-u
of great courage, piepared to lace popular
obloquy, pi sses; it is round aud compact. A
carnal inspection of his personnel, produces the
impression of a kind hearted man who will
never set tbe Hudson or the Thames ablaze.
Watch the play of the eye aud the compress. on
of the hps. or the sudden projection ot the
hands during conversation. The actions are
those of an energetic thinker accustomed to
enereetic expression. Fluent in conversation,
almost voluble, he freely expresses his views in
languuee wbleh stem unoremeditatcJ, but
which, cn analysis, is fouud to coovey pretty
accurately tbo precise idea of the speaker. This
accuracy bus doubtless been acquired by tho
logical habits of thought which his f.ivorite
study involves. ilia fluency is traceable to
the fieqiiency of his beiug ealled upon to
"eive a reason for that which is in him." What
this is, Fathi r Morrill thinks the public bave
never fairly learned. He has been so frequently
misrepresented by unintelligent ' inter vie sers"
that au ordinary ropor'er has become his bote
tioir. He does not oij ct to a full ventilation of
his peculiar views, hut he desires thit they may
be taiily stated. The doctrine ami customs ot
tbe communicants of Ht. Alum's (Jhurch are
probably strange, as they are certainly interest
ing, but what they are may be gathered uoiu
conversation with the meuibets. vie its to the
church, and a porusul of tbe great authors whom
they adopt as ihe exponents of their fai n.
These sources are open to all. With these it
will not lie difficult to etii'e acc iru'-1, if ex

but as it is founded on an education in Maytiootlx
College atid in Bt. Mary's, Kiumitubuiv, hla
opinion cannot vary In the slightest from that of
tho other Roman Catholic clertry.
Reporter It is presumed than tbe Ritualistic
movement is retarded by Roman Catholics with
ieelinos of sati faction. Is that opinion correct)
Father McCready Certainly. H presents
itself to our consideration under several phases,
cither as as acknowledgment that our practice
of ceremonies does not inculcate what Earl
Russell calls "superstitious mummery," or as
au approach to our Eucharlstic doctrine, or as
absolute acceptance of it; lu auy of th-so
views we must rejoice at the progress of the
movement, espcciailv as we believe it teuds to a
reunion of the sectarian religions with ours,
and draws larue numbers to us.

Here in this Journal poin ing to au English
paper I find men'iou ol sever il of these a :ce
slons to our Church. I am aware th-it many of
the most eminent Fpisconalian clergymen of
this city think that a movement, like the Ritual
istic perhaps, Is necessary to keep their flocks
from our faith. Rev. Mr. Dix preached in Ht.
Luke's Church last year a sermon which ex
nrersed this Idi a. The sermon was diteele i.I
believe, aeainst the sympathy then prevalent
for "persecuted clerg) meu" woo hsd violated
the canens of this Church. U I mistake not, he
beld that If strenuous excriious were no', nnd",
"before the clo,e ot this crntary liDnie would
possess (be faithful hearts of this hnd lrom sea

Reporter T)o Catholics anlicinate Hut?
Father McCready, emphatically Most enr
tainly. The Catholicifciug ot this country is o.U
a question of time.
Reporier What prop, rest is Ritualism mnking

Father McCready It is growin? stronger

In Irrlaid it Is much weaker, (or there the:
Protectant camp, bciig con-tin'ly atrajed
ngain-t the Roman Ca'holic body, Is afrid to

ii able and popular cbrjrjmun, Rev. G. W.
CarNll, perpi tiia! curate ol Ht. Hride's, In
Dubhe, attempted very mild Ritualism in his
church, couunii.g It. 1 believe, to bo ving aud
turning hi back to the congrec-ition. They
resented these umovHtloiis so much thit the
church furniture was injure), I believe;
at all events the services were only con
ducted under the protec'iou of a posse ol
police. A Kev. Mr. Maturin hid a similar
cperipuce, I have heard. It is needless to say
that the Auulieau bt.hnps ure eencrally
opposed to the innovator, and continue
to brii g them before the Ecclesiastical Ciurts
wbenevtran opoortun:ty ptestuts itself. As this
involves nmeh expense, and probably prevents
preferment to higher positions in ihe Establish
ment, it is calculated to exercise a detetrcnt
influence on Ritualism. Taking the doctriue of
Dr. Pusey as a fair sample ot' what its divines
teach, thcie is some eround for believiDg that
they will eventually Jniu us. The learned Pro-
lessor Murray ol Manonth, author of the ecle-
Dialed tractate "lie ncctsia." writing some
twenty years ago, applied tj Puscy the idea of
ot. Augustine:
