Cardinal Cullen, who is Archbishop of Dub- lin, Ireland, issued a pastoral letter to his clergy before the meeting of the Vatican Coun- cil, & syno, of which is published in The Pilot of Boston, June 4, 1870. In this letter he opposes “common, united and unsectarian instructions” in schools as “‘& godiess system of education,” and continues: It is evidently our duty, without interfering with others, to Jnsist on obtaining Catholic schools, lower and ‘middle, for Catholic children, and also Catholic colleges and_universities for the more ad- vanced stages of youth.

In | the number for January, 1862, it spoke thus on the quality of the Roman Catholic schools and | colleges: They practically fail to recognize human prog- | ress. “As far asweare able to trace the effect of | the most approved Ca c education of ay, whether at home or abroad, it tends to repress rather than quicken tne life of the pupil, to untit rather than to epare him for the active and zealous discharze either of his religious or social uties.

Dunn, one of the leading phy- sicians of Fresno, and a member of the joint committee of ten consisting of dele- gates from the Chamber of Commerce and the Hundred Thousand Club, said last evening while speaking of the prosperous condition of things in and about that city: “The people of Fresno have learned a great deal during the citrus fair held there. We find that we can raise as good oranges | as are raised in Southern Californis. Not only as good, but we can place them on the market at least four days earlier than | the Southern fruit. The orange of the southern part of the State is nearly always scale-covered, but our fruit is entirely free from scale. “The citrus fair has proved a remark- able success, far beyond the ideas of the promoters.
