WEDNESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 21,1865
THE NEW CATHOLIC GODDESS.
The Freeman's Journal publishes an Apostolic
Letter from Popo Pius IX, concerning the lately
established dogma of the Immaculate-Conception
of the Virgin Mary. In tblaj document, after
giving the history of the doctrine in question,
His Holiness proceeds to definefit as an article of
faith, as follows: . v
“Fur more It was right that, as the Only Be*
gotteirhad a Father in Heavon, whom the serhi
pbim extoHhree times holy, so he should baveY
Mother on the earth, who never should want the
splendor of holiness. And this dootrine, indeed,
bo filled the minds and souls of our forefathers
that is marvelous and singular form of speech
prevailed with them, in which they Yery frequent
ly called the Mother of God immaculate and en
tirely immaculate, innocent and most Innocent,
spotless, holy, and most distant from every stain
of sin, all pure, all perfeot, the type and model
of purity and innoccnoe, more beautiful than
beauty, more gracious than grace, more holy
than hblinoss, and alone holy, and most pfire In
aonl and body, who has surpassed all perfecti
tude and all virginity, and has become the dwel
ling place of all the graces of the Mos.t Holy
Spirit, and who,' Gtxl alone excepted, is superior
to all, and by nature furor, more beautiful, and
more holy than the oherubim( and seraphim; she
whom all the tongues of heaVen and earth do not
suffice to extol. Ho one is ignorant that these
forms of speech have passed, as it were sponta
neously into the monuments of the most Holy
Liturgy, and the Offices of the Church and them
and abound amply; and since the Mother of God
is invoked and named in them as a spotless dovo
of beauty, as a rose over blooming and perfect
ly pure, and ever spotless and ever blessed, and
is celebrated os Innocence which was never
wounded, and a second Eve who brought forth
Emmanuel.
«It is no wonder; then, if the pastors of the
Church and the faithful people have daily more
and more gloriod tojrofess with so much piety
and fervor this doctrine of the Immaculate Con
ception of the Virgin Mother of God, pointed
ont in the Sacred Scriptures, according to the
■ judgment of the Fathers, banded down in so
many mighty testimonies of the same, express
| ed and celebrated la so many illnstrions monu
ments of a retired antiquity, and proposed, and
j with great piety confirmed by , the greatest and
highest judgment of the Church; bo that'noth-'
: ing would be more dear, more pleasing to fee
same th*n everywhere to worship, venerate, in
voke, and proclaim the Virgin Mother of God
conceived without original stain. Wherefore
from the ancicnttimei the Princes of the Church,
Ecclesiastics, and even emperors and kings them
selves, have earnestly entreated of this Apostol
ic See that the Immaculate Conception of the
Most Holy Mother of God should bo defined as
a of Catholio faith. Which entreaties
were renewed also in these Our times, and espe
cially were addressed to Gregory XVI., -Our pre
decessor of 'happy memory, and to Ourselves,
not only by Bishops, bat by the secular clergy,
religions Orilers, and the greatest princes and
faithful peoples. ~
“Therefore, with singular joy of mind, well
knowing all these things, and seriously consider
ing them, scarcely bad We, though unworthy,
been raised by a mysterious dispensation of Di
vine Providence to.. the exalted Chur of Peter,
and, undertaken the Government of the whole
. than, following the veneration,. the
piety and love, We had entertained for the Bless
ed Virgin from, Oar tender years. We, had
nothing at heart mere than to accomplish all
' these things which as yet were among the ardent
wishes of the Church, that the honor of the
Mojtt Blessed Virgin should be increased,and her
prerogatives should shine with a fuller light.— j
But wishing to bring to this full maturity, We
appointed a special congregation of the V.. V. F.
P.-N. N. S. U. -E- Cardinals, illustrious by their
piety, their wisdom, and their 'knowledge of the
ucrod sciences; and we also selected Ecclesias
tics, both secular and regular, well trained in
the theological discipline, that they shonld most
carefully weigh all those thiogrwhicb relato to
the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin, and
report to us their Opinion. And, although from
the entreaties lately received by us for at length
dsfiningthelmmaculateConception oftheJVirgio,
the opinions of most of the Bishops of toe
Church were understood, however, We sent En
cyclic, Letters, dated, at Gaels, the 2d day of
February, in the year 1849,-to all our Venerable
Brethren, the Bishops of the'Catholic world, la
•vderthat, haring offered prayers to God, they
would signify to Us, in writing, what was the
piety and devotion of their flocks toward the lm
maculate Conception of the Mother, of God, and
especially what the Bishops themselves thought
about promulgating the definition or what they
desired, in order that We might pronounce Our
supreme Jodgment as solemnly as possible.
“Certainly we were filled with no slight con
aolatioa when the replies of our venerable Breth
ren came to Us. For, with an incredible joy
fulness, gladness,' and seal, they not only con
firmed their own-singular piety, and that of their
clergy and faithful people, toward the Immacu
late Conception of the Most Bleased.Virgin, but
they even entreated of Us with a common voice
that the Immaculate Conception ortho Virgin |
should bo defined by Our supreme Judgment and j
authority. Nor, indeed, were we filled with less
joy when the V.Y.F.F.N.N.8.8.8. Cardinals of i
the Bpeclal Congregation. aforesaid, and the con- j
salting theologians chosen by Us, after a diu-1
mnt examination demanded from Us with equal
alacrity and teal this definition of the Immacu
late Conception of the Mother of God. '
“ Afterword walking in. tho illustrious foot
steps of Oar predecessors, and desiring to pro
ceed duly and properly, We proclaimed and held
a Consists? In which We addressed Our Brethren,
the Cardßus of the Holy Roman Church, and
with the greatest consolation of mind We heard
them entrant of Us that We should promulgate
the dogmatic definition the Immaonlato Concep
tion of the Virgin Mother of God.
“Therefore, having full trust in the Lord that
i the opportune time had come for defining the im
maculate conception of the Virgin Mary, Mother
of God, which the Divine words, venerable tra»
dition, the perpetual opinion of the Church, the
singular agreement of Catholio Prelates and
Faithful, and the signal acts and constitutions of
Our predecessors wonderfully illustrate and pro
claim ; having most diligently weighed all things
and poured forth"io God assiduous, and fervent
prayers, We resolved that We should no longer
delay to sanction and define, by our supreme
authority, the immaculate Conception of the
Virgin, and thus to satisfy the most pious desires
of the Catholio world and our o#n piety toward
the Most Holy Virgin, and, at the samo time, to
honor more and moro the only-begotten Son, Je
sus Christ our Lord, since whatever honor and
j praise is given tq the Mother redounds to the
Bon.
after We had unceasingly, In hu
mility and fasting, offered Our own prayers and
the publto prayers of the Church to God the
Father, through His Bqp, that Ho would deign to.
direct and confirm Our mind by tho power of
the Holy Ghost, and Implored tho aid of the
entire heavenly host, and invoked the Paraclete
with sighs, and He Urns inspiring, to the honoc
of the Holy and undivided Trinity, to the glory
-end ornament of the Virgin Mother of God, to
the exaltation of the Catholio frith and the in
crease of the Catholic religion, by the authority
of Jesus Christ our Lord, of the Blessed Apoa?
ties, Peter and PauL We declare, pronounce,
end define that the dootrine'which holds that
the Blessed Virgin Mary, at the first instant of
her conception, by a singular privilege and grace
of the Omnipotent God, : in virtue of the merits
of Jesns Christ, the Saviour of mankind, liras
preserved immaculate from all stain of original
Bin, has been revealed by God, and, therefore,
should firmly and constantly bobeUevedbt all
the faithful. Wherefore, If any~dare—wnioh
God avert~-to think otherwise than as. it'has
been defined by Us, they should know and; un
derstand that they 'are condemned by their own
judgment, that they have, suffered shipwreck of
the frith, and have; revolted , from the unity of
the Church; and, besides, by their Pirn sot they
subject themselves to .the penalties justly ertab-1
llahed if what they think they shonld dare to,
signify by word, writing, or any other outward
means.''l
“Our mouth Is flUed with joy, and Oar tongue
.with exaltation, and. We return, and shall ever
return, the most humble and the greatest thanks
to Jesus Christ our Lord, because through his
singular benoflcence He has granted to j Us»

sinner may obtain pardon, the sick healing, the
weak strength of heart, the afflicted consolation,
and that all who are in error, their spiritual
blindness being dissipated, may return to the
path of truth and jastice, and may become one
flock and one shepherd.
M Lot all the children of the Catholio Church
most dear to Us hear these Our words, and, with
a more ardent teal of piety, religion, and love,
proceed to worship, invoke, and pray to the Most
Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God, conceived
without original sin, and let them fly with entiro
confidence to this most sweet Mother of Mercy
and Grace in all dangers, difficulties, doubts and
fears. For nothing is to bo feared, and nothing
Is to be despaired of under her guidance, under
her auspices, under her fetor, under her protec
tion, who, bearing toward os a maternal affec
tion, and taking up the business of our salvation
is solicitioos for the whole human race, ap
pointed by God the Queen of Heaton and Earth,
and exalted above all the choirs of Angels, and
orders of Saints, standing at the right hand of
the only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ, Our Lord,
intercedes most powerfully, and obtains what
she asks, and cannot be frustrated.
“Finally, In order that this Our definition of
the Immaculate Conception of the Most Blessed
Virgin Mary may be brought to the knowledge
of the Universal Church, We will these Letters
Apoetolio to stand for a perpetual remembrance
of the thing, commanding that to transcripts or
printed copies, subsoribod by the hand of some
notary public, and authenticated by the seal of
a person of ecclesiastical rank, appointed for the
purpose, thesame faith sh&ll be paid which would
to those presentslf they were oxhibited
or shown.
“Let no man interfere with this Our declara
tion,- pronunciation, and definition, or oppose and
contradict it with presumptuous rashness. If
any should presume to assail it, let him know
that he will Incur the indignation of the Omni
potent God and of His blessed Apostles Peter
and Paul.”

tueb.—The New York Journal of Commerce im-
proves tho recent entire destruction from fire of
a Fifth avenue mansion by a lea tore on the risks
to fire which ensue from the present mode of con
structing houses. It appears that in the instance
referred to the fire having got behind the Tarring
(the strips of wood nailed to Iho wail or joists,
as the caso may be, to receive the lath and plas
ter,) all efforts to extinguish the fire were una
vailing. A hole cut Into this lath and plaster to
Introduce the hose, produced a draft of air, say
the reports, which addod intensity to the flame.
The Journal thinks that with very little addition
tlonoi outlay over what is now expended in the
erection of houses, they can bo rendered so
near fire-proof as to moke it difficult to bum
them, and that tho mode of building now em
ployed—a brick or stone outside, shielding a
wood-house within——is as bad as an entire wood
en structure. The outside wall excluded the wa
ter, and the fire rages between it and tho plast
ering, without difficulty or interruption..
As a remedy against the evils of this mode of
-building it recommends the following plan.
Carry up an interior wall within three or four
inobes of the front wall, put the plastering upon
that, instead of furrying; it will bo perfeotly dry,
durable beyond any experience we have of the
other, and will exolude rats, vermin, dampness
and cold air, and will be safe as a remedy
against fire. If the Inside shutters are needed
to go from the floor 4o the willing, we would
■n«k» them and the boxes wbioh receives them—
on the principal floor—of iron. . They are made
with a beauty and lightness of appearance which
cannot be well surpassed; and in addition to
being safe against fire, would be a. protection
against burglars.. Tho difference in expense be
tween the two plans is so extremely slight, as to
make the outlay of no consequence in compari
son with its immense advantages. A room en
closed on all aides with brick wails, and hating
no wood work to connect with the floor above it
! except the ordinary doors and windows, would
be so disconnected from drafts of air; that it
would be consumed by fire very slowly, wbioh
could therefore be pat out with very little trouble.
Ihe flame would not reach the floor above.—
The wood work under the windows, constituting
the casing; ought in every case to be dispensed
with, And another material substituted. A mar
Me seat with a loose cushion, would be a prop
ter substitute, though many others would an
swer- The experiment of uBing.BQapatone. tog.the,
foot.board was tried last year with advantage
near to furoaco flues, and in halls and elsewhere
andean recommend it for economy and safety.
The fashion of Into has been to make them of
wood, and from twclvo to eighteen inches high,;
Urns adding to tho danger from fire, furnishings
escort rotreat from vormin, and diminishing the
apparent height of the ocllings. A'neat and low
pattern of garble would be cheaper,- safer 1 and
more ornamental- The fnrnace of a dwelling
ehonld be placed under the main hall—should
have no wood floor above it, but a tile floor,'con
structed on a brick arch;, and tho flues, forwarm
ing should bo made, in brick walls. The hollow
walls front and rear aro adapted to thl* purpose
in part If the main ball of a dwelling have walls
ott both sideaofitj.it is very easy to make tho
flooring and the avoir case nearly fire proof at
very little cost
These suggestion* u< excellent, and wa com
mend them to the attention of onr architect! end
I builders. It is astonishing how much mejr be
done to tanka a dwelling tale and comfortable,
with hat little additional expense, by haring a
well digested plan on which to work. It takes
no more work to build hollow walla than solid,
and iorea the expense of furring, and these hol
low walls can be turned into nse as the moet ad
mirable of Tontllatore.- They also render a house
'warmer In winter, and cooler in summer.

VOLUME LXVIII—-NUMBER 155.
<xl by’a continuance of the strife that has agita
ted the country for years past, then the prospect
is-indeed a gloomy one. We see uothing.ahead
in each a contingency but contention,'.excitement
and alienation with the least possible hope of
success in the end for those who think the coun
try has other interests than those that revolt*
around thi9 one question of exciting and un
profitable debate. - .
Wo aay this with as earnest a dislike of political
Abolitionism as the Stnlind c&n possibly enter
tain, and with a true belief in the doctrine that
the institution of stavery is one constitutionally
and properly left to the governanco of tho sev
eral Btotca. The South have no hope from
the North except upon the hasi* of Sinking the
question, of withdrawing it from sigfit, and sub
stituting in its place an agreement of mutual
concession. So long as it makes the subject na
tional by consenting to its discussion, so long as
it sends men to Congress who act as if this was
the chief matter deserving serious attention, the
agitation will go on; and its results will bo sub
stantially those which the Sentinel how regrets
and attributes to the influence of Know-Nothing
ism.
The Sentinel, in our judgment is also wrong in
fact, when it attributes to Know Nothlngism the
election of Wilson, Seward* and other abolition
ists to the Senate. These results would have
occurrred had the new party never been hoard
of. They were clearly forseen and predicted as
the inevitable consequence of the Nebraska ex
citement, and Know Nothingism only had the ef
fect to distract what would otherwisehavebeeu
the almoßt unopposed triumph of abolitionism itt -
every Northern State. Massachusetts, for'in
stance, has been made a speciality in these char
gesngainst the Know-Nothings, and yet can any
intelligent observer fail for one moment to see
exactly what are the facts in tho case?. Suppose
the new party had possessed no political exist
enco there, would not Wilson have been elected
Governor of the State, and some other man aB
thoroughly impregnated with abolitionism - and
hostility to the South os he can possibly be, have
been sent to tho Senate? The fact is too appa
rent to permit of a consistent denial. But Know
Nothlngism sprang up, it forced Wilson to with
draw from the Gubernatorial contest, and though
by the same disgraceful manoeuvres as seat Sew
ard to the Senate, ho obtained,his reward, wo
cannot hold the Know Nothings responsible for
the result.' And the same may be truthfully
asserted of New York, Illinois, Wisconsin and
other States in which Senatorial - elections have
recently been held. The election of anti-Nebras
ka men was a forgone conclusion in all,of these
.States, not to bo averted by tho opposition which
any political party could bring to bear at this
time. We may regret'tbal this should be the
case, but we see no good-purpose, present or fu
ture, to be secured by controverting facte as evi
dent and demonstrable as that two oud two make
four.—Bait. Amer. -
