The Catholic Church in its Relation to
Slavery.
[For The Press.]
On the question of 44 Human Slavery, the Catho
lics of the United States, as a mass. by Some strange
mischance, have been heretofore acting in direct
ant gonism to the policy, the teaching, and the
cans of their Church.
For many long years, political affiliation, party
rulers, the drill and discipline of politics, the cor
rupting influence of place-hunting, and the hosti
lity of the masses of the American people to the in
fusion of Catholic Ideas Into questions of national
politics, have conspired against the impulse of the
Catholics of the land, and thus unwittingly array
ing them on the side of the slave power, and in an
tagonism to the glorious policy of the Catholics.
which, for eighteen hundred years. has never.
never ceased to combat and testify against the
"Unholy Institution of Slavery."
But now, when party ties are rent, and newpoliti
cal combinations are inchoate, and religious diffe
rences are buried, it is meet and right that the Ca
tholic doctrine as regards human slavery should
be boldly spoken, and its adoption as a rule of fu
ture political conduct firmly insisted upon.
it le one of the commonly received opinions even
with the Catholics, that the Church looks with a
tolerant, if not an approving eye, upon slavery.
Party managers in the North, doing the bidding of
their leaders, encouraged this idea. " The elo
quence of the stump" propagated it ; but nothing
can be more false. The historic past, resplendent
- with glorious labors, rises up and belies this popu
lar delusion. '
To be in harmony with the spirit of the Church
upon this question, we, Catholics, must act as she
acted through every vicissitude of her existence.
"never to cease combatting human slavery by all
lawful means."
So that we may thoroughly understand this sub
ject, we will briefly epitomize the legislation of the
Chureh as regards slavery, first drawing a picture
of the condition of the slaves in the ancient world.
Thinking men will, no doubt, recognize the source
from which spring many of the current ideas of our
day as regards this institution, and the similitude
of the systems of slavery in ancient and modern
times.
The identity of the Catholic Church with the
Christianity of the earlier centuries will be objected
to by some zealots, and thus the entire argument
invalidated ; but such objection is worthless, inas
much as the Church became aggressive as regards
slavery, coincident with the period so facetiously
fixed upon as her apostacy. It must strike any
student of history as self-evident, that no system of
sects, such as now exist under the generic term of
Protestant—deficient in unity, having no cohesion
MVO the affinity of a common negation—could have
rescued Rurope from the barbarism and slavery
that overspread it at the coming of Christ. It re
quired the potency, the momentum of an organized,
united, centralized, in fact, a Catholic system of
religion, to grapple with and overthrow that mon
ster evil of human society.
When Christianity appeared in the world as the
regenerative system, slavery existed in every
civilized and in every barbaric land. It was uni
versal. Turn our eyes in whatsoever direction.
the same black cloud of misery and woe presented
itself to our view. No voice was upraised for the
poor human bondsman. In vain do we search
the fiery appeals of the ancient orators for one
Sentence in his favor. The philosophers of the
Grecian and Roman worlds the Mag' and sooth
sayers of the far Orient ; the Druid priest of
Western Europe, from whom one would expect
humanity at least, were all linked against him in
an unholy band of oppression.
The ideas of the world, before the advent of
Christianity, were in their tendency, in so far as
they related to domestic slavery, barbarous and
inhuman. And this barbarity and inhumanity,
like a foul infection, overspread every other do
mestic institution. Slavery reigned everywhere—
nowhere was the natural dignity of man ac
knowledged. Woman was debased and dishonored
by the corruption of manners—the feelings of
humanity were trampled. upon—infants were
abandoned, the sick and infirm were neglected—
barbarity and cruelty were carried to the highest
pitch of atrocity in the prevailing laws of war.
Brute force held the weak in subjection, and scorned
with contempt the fettered slaves that craved
mercy. If there were occasional traits of hu
manity and fraternity, manifested like the phos
phorescent flashes emitted from a putrid mass ; they
only served to heighten our disgust.
According to the opinion of the ancient world.
the slaves were a mean race, far below the dignity
of freemen—degraded by the gods, marked by a
stamp of humiliation, and predestined to their state
of abjection and debasement ; in a word, they were
chattels, as slaves are to-day—a detestable
doctrine, "and one contradicted by the very na
ture or Man, by history and by earnience, but
which, nevertheless, reckoned then as now distin
guished men among its defenders." Homer speaks
of slaves, as being deprived by . Zupiter of half their
mind. Plato says '• that in the mind of the
slave there is nothing sound or complete."
But it is in the polities of Aristotle that we
find this rite doctrine, now so commonly be
lieved in, in all its deformity ; " Nature,' says
Aristotle " has taken care to create the bodies of
free men different from those of slaves; the bodies
of the latter are strong and proper for labor. it 55
55 Thus it cannot be doubted that thereare
some men born for liberty, as others are for slavery
—a slavery whieh is not only useful to the slaves
themselves, but is moreover just." We cannot
fail to discover the exact similarity of the argu
ments of the pro-slavery advocates now, and two
thousand years ago, and we are forced irresistibly
to conclude that the arguments of inferiority do
not arise from accident of color or race, but is a
consequence of the system itself, as in the eases
above quoted. Homer, Plato, and Aristotle WV).
cated the natural inferiority of men of their own
race, blood, and color.
The condition of the slave in ancient Rome was,
if possible, worse than in Greece. While holding
the Greek ideas of the natural inferiority of the
slave. the Romans far exceeded the Greek in cru
elty and barbarity. The Roman master held the
power of life and death. History relates several
notable instances In which it was exercised. A Se
nator of Rome, Quirdius Elaminius, put a slave to
death through caprice in the midst of a festival.
Yediva Plinio, in the reign of Tiberius. caused
one of his slaves to be thrown into a fish-pond,
because he accidentally broke a glass of crystal.
At Rome, whenever a master was assassinated, all
of his slaves, guilty and innocent, were condemned
to die. Tacitets relates : When Pedamis Seemadas
was assassinated by one of his slaves, not less than
four hundred, according to custom, were crucified.
hch wog the condition of the ancient world when
Christianity began its mission of freedom, civiliza
tion, and emancipation.
The Very Rev. Father McHugh, V. G.
[Per The Press.]
To intekibe the name upon a cold slab, and to re
cord in the columns of a public journal the death
of a dear friend, form a part of the sad duties
which the living owe to the virtuous dead. To ex
tol departed sanctity, and to keep in memory piety
that is gone by, seems to be but the 'result of the
high estimation in which it was held ; and the glo
rious tribute of that grateful recollection will
never fail to transmit to posterity, for the imita
tion of the virtuous, the good works of charity
a love which have been wrought by those whom
God. in his mercy, has called to their reward.
We might enter largely into a detail of the pri
vate and public life of the Very Reverend Father
McHugh, Vicar General of the diocese of Kilmore,
Ireland. and P. P. of Knockninney, the subject of
this notice, but we prefer to leave the matter in the
bands of a more competent person. It will be
done, no doubt, by one of his parishioners or friends
who knew him better, but could not esteem more
than the writer of this simple paragraph, whose
design is rather to sympathize with the relatives and
friends of the lamented deceased, and to bear tes
timony to his zeal, charity, and love, while living,
for the church which ho faithfully served, and the
poor whom he so benevolently assisted, than to cram
the columns of a newspaper even with well-merited
eulogiums.
To tell! the surviving mourners of the Very
Reverend deceased that the higher duty which the
church owes to the memory of the faithful priest was
promptly attended to at the Church of St. Joackim,
Frankford, of which the Rev. John McGovern
(cousin german to the deceased) is pastor, is the
chief object which the writer has in view. The
solemn requiem mass was offered upon the morn
ing of the 9th inst., Rev. Mr. MeGrane being
celebrant, Rev. Messrs. Reilly and Dougherty act
ing as deacon and sub-deacea, and key. Mr. Me
rlins master of ceremonies. We noticed in the
sanctuary, besides, Rev. Messrs. Cantwell, St.
Philip's ; Lane, St. Theresa's ; Hugh McLaugh
lin. bt. Anne's, Richmond ; 011aran, St. Paul's ;
WAninney, Blacker, Daly, Moran, Brady,
44, The Rev, John McGovern, pastor,
made a very appropriate address, and spoke with
great warmth upon the virtues of the deceased.
Thus it will be seen that in a land far distant,
and in a church far remote from the scene of the
Very Reverend gentleman's life and labors, his
demise did not pass unnoticed, nor was his soul left
to wend its way to the throne of the Judge unae •
oompenied by the prayers and petitions of pious
hearts, keeping up that communion of souls which
forms such a - beautiful feature in the Catholic
Church. Let us imitate his virtues while we laud
his piety, and aspire to enjoy, as he did, the grace
of a happy death. B. T. H.
FILIANKFORD, October 9, 1861.
The Truth Regarding the Oiler Made to
Garibaldi
A Paris correspondent of the New York Times,
under date of September 27, says :
We have at length arrived at the truth in regard
to the Garibaldi wank. In the first place, friends
of Garibaldi intimated to the Government at Weed
been long ago that the General took a deep inte
rest in the struggle between the Union and Slavery,
and that, without doubt, he could be induced to
lend biz powerful aid to the National arms. The
fact was stated in such a way that the Government
regarded it aa an offer of services, and feeling deeply
sensible for such a mark of 4.oooleade and good-will
on the part of the great Italian leader, ordered a
negotiation tobe commenced in regard to the matter.
This negotiation, on account of his personal ac
quaintance with Garibaldi and his knowledge of
European languages, was confided to Mr. Sanford,
minister to Belgium. Mr. S. was authorised to
make terms with Gen. Garibaldi for the command
Of tt division of the American army, and was charged,
at the same time, to convey to the General an ex
pression of the high esteem of the American Go
vernment for his eminent patriotism and abilities.
In the first correspondence which took place,
only general terms were used, there being nothing
more definite than an offer of service in the army
of the 'United States. But, in connection with this
fact, the impression all at once grew general in Eu
rope—proceeding partly from the affair of Bull
Pun—that the . I Stional army was in great straits
for a commander, and that this offer to Gen. Gari
baldi meant the chief commend_ Garibaldi 's gene.
rale, Bixio, Turr, Sirtori, and others, at once
gathered around him, and offered to accompany
Lim to America, where they supposed a great field
was to be opened for their loved chief is the eman
cipation of slavery and the salvation of the desti
nies of the great American Republic. All this was
highly honorable in both Garibaldi and his gene
rals, and they thereby earned the gratitude of the
loyali American peopl?, for their motive was not
pure adventure, as might be supposed ; their hearts
were in the contest, and they felt that there, as
well as in Italy, they would be fighting the uni
versal battle of civilization and
But Mr. Sanford was not authorized to offer Gen.
Garibaldi the chief command of the National army
—a fact which Garibaldi did not comprehend till
he saw Mr. S. at Caprera. In the meantime the
word had got out that Garibaldi had been offered
the chief command, and all the harm had been
done. When Mr. Sanibrd offered him a division of
the army he was still disposed to accept, but then
his friends, the King of Italy in the member, ad-
wised him not to. and thus the negotiation came to
1111 end.
In all the di.sent9ions. Garibaldi, who is a natu
ralized citizen of the United States, constantly
spoke of the deep interest he felt in the welfare of
his adopted country, which stood next in his heart
and affections to his native Italy. and if it had not
been for the pressure of his friends at the last mo
ment. and especially the urgent letter of the King,
he would have gone to take command in any posi
tion the President would have placed him. His
whole soul is in the cause of the Union. He shed
tears when speaking of the probable rupture of the
great Republic, and said that if it were shown to
him that his soryices sere essential to the Xforth,
nothing would restrain him but the prospect of
immediate service in Italy. It must not be be
lieved, however, that the King and the advisers of
Garibaldi objected to his going from any want of
sympathy in the cause of the American Union ; it
was s . olely because they could not spare him at
this 'important epoch in the history of Italy. for
a service so far removed
that
home, and so full
o,f dangers. It was not that they loved America
lees, but Garibaldi more.
Letter from Pottsville
[Correspondence of The Press.]
POTTSVILLE, Pa , October 14. 1961
In your issue of yesterday it is erroneously
stated that 0_ M. Donavan was to have the posi•
tion of lieutenant colonel in Col. Cakes regiment.
I desire to say his appointment to any position
in this regiment has never been thought of by those
concerned in its organization.
pctraylkill county has all the military education,
talent, and experience necessary to the command
of the soldiers she is so abundantly furnishing for
the war.
The, duties of the lieutenant colonelcy have been,
and are now being, performed by Mr. F. G. Frick,
of this place. Mr. F. served with credit in the
Men:lean War, and is an educated and estimable
gentleman. L.
How the Army of the Potomac is Sup
plied with Bread.
The great army bakery, carried on in the ex
terior vaults of the Capitol, is an establishment of
considerable interest It is under the control of
Lieutenant Thomas Cate, Twelfth Infantry, United
States army, who served three months in the Mas
sachusetts Sixth regiment. which was, for a time,
quartered in the Capitol. When the necessity of a
bakery was apparent. the lieutenant promptly
offered his services to build the ovens : and so well
did he execute his trust that the War Department
thought proper to retain him as the superintendent,
with the rank of First Lieutenant in the regular
arm.
Re y has employed about ale hundred and seventy
hands—a day squad and a night squad. They
nearly all sleep in the building, and are furnished
their meals from an ample kitchen. Immediately
adjoining the kitchen are the dining-rooms, and the
shining tables and clean floors bear testimony to the
propriety of the arrangements generally. By this
bakery the defenders of our common country are
supplied with pure, wholesome, fresh bread, the
mane as is obtained from the city bakers; and any
one who has endeavored to masticate the hard ship
biscuit, formerly served out to the soldiers, will, in
an instant. see the benefits derived from this army
bakery. In its employ are twelve wagons, which
are constantly going forth loaded with fresh bread
for the soldiers this side the Potomac, carrying
daily some 58,000 loaves. Each loaf, when de
livered to the soldier, weighs twenty-two ounces,
amply sufficient for a day's ration.
The bakery consumes one hundred and forty bar
rels of flour per day, and it is such flour as our ci
tizens usually purchase for home consumption. At
tached to the bakery is a yeast room, where are
kept constantly employed, eight men, who furnish
yeast sufficient (obtained principally from twenty
four bushels of Irish potatoes) for the immense
amount of dough daily made up and consumed.
The internal arrangements of this bakery must be
seen to be appreciated. The workmen are quiet,
courteous, and industrious, and a visitor to the
Capitol would be unaware of the unceasing industry
carried on beneath him if his attention were not
called to the fact.
The ovens are large and well built, and are each
capable of baking about 4,300 loaves of bread
every twenty-four hours. From personal observa
tion of the manner in which the dough is worked
we can safely recommend it as being equal to any
bread made in the distriot_ With sueh food our
volunteers are well satisfied, and, thus invigorated,
each man feels himself prepared for all the perils
of the campaign, and for the victory in prospect--
National Intelh;geiteer.
IF New Orleans has fallen into the hands of the
United States, its eondition ? we have no doubt, will
be very speedily improved. Certainly improvement
is very desirable.
We have seen no very late New Orleans papers,
but the last that we did see were quite subdued in
their tone. They exhibited no enthusiasm in the
Southern cause. They had nothing of the bullying
and blustering style that characterized them last
winter. What they see all around them has had
the effect to sober them.
The reports contained in the papers we have re
ferred to show that King Cotton is not only a de
throned, but a dead monarch. One of them says
"thirteen bales sold on Saturday, nineteen on
Monday, and seventeenyestorday." Another says
"117 bales against 23,014 bales during the corre.
spending period last year. There were 10,000 bales
in store, and the export is put down at 000.' "
With no sales of cotton, pork at forty dollars a
barrel, hay at fifty dollars a ton, and all things else
at monstrous prices, the banks in a state of suspen
sion, and all the operations of Government eon.
ducted on treasury notes, with no ascertainable
basis, the people of New Orleans, it is easy to see,
could hardly change their condition without finding
it improved.—Louisville Journal.

PROP. O. J, Woon: bear Sir: Lithe latter part of Us,
year 1852, while attending the State and National Law
School 01 the state of New York, my hair, from a Midi
imkpylvp 41, cointhehotj falling c.fr very rapidly, BLS
filst in this abort Fpace of six months, the whole upper
part of my scalp was almost entirely bereft of its cover
ing, and much of the remaining portion upon the aide
and back part of my head shortly after became gray: so
that you will not be surprised when I tell you that, upon
my return to the State of Indiana, my more casual ac
anaintances were not so notch at a loss to discover the
caUSO of Po rluuf,e in my appearnaco, as my mare Ma
t:nate acquaintances were to recomdae me at id!..
I at nee made application to the molt altilful physi•
clans in the country, but, receiving tin assurance from
them that my hair could again tie restored, I was forces*
to become reconciled to ray fate, until, fortunately, in
the latter part of the year 15.57, your Restorative was
recommended to roe by a drizgt,t, as being the most
reliabte_h air Restorative in use. I tried one bottle, and
found to my gust satisfaction that ii was producing ties
desired effect. Rice that time I have used cevca dol
lars' worth of your Restorative, and as a result, have ai
rich coat of very soft black hair, which no money can
buy.
As. a mark of my gratitude for your labor and skill is
the production of so wonderful an article, 1 hare recom
mended its use to many of my fricncle and acquaint
wlco, I an, lkiiqty to licforto y ntt, tare nAtil it with
