A., O.:
New Orleans, (Louisiana)
to Archbishop (Anthony Blanc:
New Orleans, Louisiana)
As a Catholic and friend of religion, A. offers a remark in regard to the conduct of Father (James Ignatius) Mullon. A. knows nothing of Mullon in the discharge of his duties which is not creditable but his extraneous functions have become political. He mingles too much in the party strifes and openly expresses his mind on subjects of worldly and political concerns. This alienates part of his people and prejudices the minds of Protestants. There are now in this city the Irish and the Native American Associations (Nativists) which array many against many. A. cannot think it expedient for a priest to stand forward as a champion of national predilection, exasperating many. A. is not alone in this view. He appeals to Blanc to correct the evil. P.S. Blanc may not be aware that M(ullon) writes for the political papers.

Charbonnel, Amand de, Bp. of Toronto:
to Archbishop John Baptist Purcell:
of Cincinnati, Ohio
He asks Purcell to form a plan by which he might get something from Cincinnati. He will accept any mite and would be satisifed with the prayers of those who can't give. When the Pope made him bishop, he told of his repugnance for begging and the Pope gave him a brief of recommendation to Bishop to help him. Purcell is the third to whom he has applied. The Catholics of Toronto are scattered over a large area. Protestants have the upper hand in every thing. If saying Mass might be useful, Charbonnel is at Purcell's service.
