The rubble work as for as we co. ld see.

Including the footing courses and inside crost walls, there mu-t be from LOO to 2,000 perches of this class of work. That part of the front that is above ground and exposed to view, is pitched face a hler work; each stone being placed so with respect to joint, as to give the whole an appearance of beauty, strength and durability.

Carriage and Wagon UNIT In our last, we spoke of the general effects of union. In this we wish to examine thn kind of union desired, abd how it may best be accomplished. Before defining our position, Jet us take a glance at the needs of catholic communities throughout the country. With Ihe exception of a tew of the larger cities, there is really but little if any catholic organization. The church, uuaiued aud alone, is left to do the great work of protecting Ihe integrity and purity ot her faith within, aud, at the same time, of defending it against the assaults of the world from without.

In this day of hurry and bustle, little wonder if the old story is repeated that she is opposed to progress. For, let me ask, what can a single clergyman do iu the intellectual field, when his time is wholly devoted to the discharge of his ministerial duties in several congregations consisting of three or four hundred people each? Thej' may be, as our clergy generally aremen of the soundest scholarship and most untiring industry but could they be as much more, it would be impossible for them to meet all the pressing wauls of young communities in our new States. The necessary result is that thousands of young men grow up and go forth in the great battle of life, with but little knowledge of their church or its history, save what their poor pastor has tried to teach them in occasional hours stolen from more imperative duties. There is no disguising the fact that the contest of christian truth is not now so much a warfare between the sects, as it is a si niggle against the infidel tendencies of the age. It requires but the slightest observation in the masses of the people, especially of nou-c itholic young men, to discover this It is true that education is loudly boasted of among us unfortunately it is of that superficial kind which produces not wisdom, but skepticism.

We speak advisedly, aud can truthfully say that after an iuliniate acquaintance with thousands of the men of several State institution, aud with many that we have since met, such a thing as ieep reverential faith is scarcely known among them. This is an unpleasant truth and serves but to illustrate those celebrated Hues "A little learning is a dargcrou thinpr Drink deeply, or taste not the Pierian spring. Fr shallow draughts intoxicate the brain. Hut drinking deeply sobers us again." We have, not the lime, or space, to dwell on this subject as wc would like to do; but this much must serve our nurpose to show the necessity of action on our part. Now one of the best aids that can be given this great work of the church, is the formation of societies, which shall have for their real end Ihe intellectual and religious advancement of their members.

Already a very commendable effort been made' to establish a national union among the catholic young men. We heartily endorse it. and wish it Ihe success it justly deserves. But outside of that, and in a more humble wy. we also advocate the building up of many local union', which shall have for their specific object their own self improvement.

If they be thorough in this regard, they will as a whole supplement the work of the national union. These should consist of the old and young in the community age will give prudence, and youth will lend energy and life.
