Within a comparatively recent date, various reports of rich mines having been discovered in a portion of British America, situated some six hundred miles north of Victoria (V. I.,) reache 1 California. These reports excited the cupidity and spirit of adventure of no small portion of our citizens, a few of whom started at once for the field of operations—to try their fortunes in what was then, and even still is, almost a primitive wilder- ness. The writer of the following narrative was one of the above class. He left San Francisco on the 26th of March, 18(51, for Cariboo, and arrived there on the 15th May, thus consuming forty-nine days on the journey. He went up by what is known as the " Brigade Route," and returned by the " River (the Frazer) Route." Of what befel him on his way up to the mines — especially the foot-travel — his experience when there, and of his return journey, some idea may be formed by a perusal of the following pages. In addition, he gives distances, means of transit, inci- dental expenses, and the names of towns and camping-places — where the latter had any.

While about to do battle against the legions of Maxentius which outnumbered his own 4 to 1, Constantine had a vision in which he saw a compound symbol (chi and rho , the beginning of ) appearing in the cloudy heavens,1 and heard “Under this sign you will be victorious.” He placed the symbol on his helmet and on the shields of his soldiers, and Maxentius’s horse threw him into the water at Milvan (Mulvian) Bridge and the Roman commander was drowned (what more could one ask God for?). 1. In a timeframe in which no real distinction was being made between astrology and astronomy, you will note, seeing a sign like this in the heavens may be classed as astronomy quite as readily as it may be classed as astrology.

The term “affair” did not connote merely an injustice but the process through which a perceived wrong became the object of mobilized public opinion. Most famously, for the Jews, there were the Damascus, Mortara, and Dreyfus affairs. All three placed Jews in conflict with the Catholic Church. The emergence of these affairs was one facet of a new political culture constituted by the reformed franchise, by petitions, public meetings, and a press which together constituted “public opinion”.1 Evangelical Protestants offered Jews support in these struggles. The nature of this support has become the subject of growing but divergent interest among scholars. Nadia Valman has explored the figure of “the Jew” in the evangelical imagination. She highlights the gendered ambivalence of evangelical representations of “the Jew”. She draws attention to the repeated iteration of the dual images of the “good” (spiritual and feeling) Jewess and the “bad” (materialistic and legalistic) Jew.2 In contrast to this approach, which points to an irreducible ambivalence in evangelical attitudes, recent books by Donald Lewis and by Hilary and William Rubinstein, reach unreservedly positive conclusions. Lewis deprecates what he sees as “an article of faith” among scholars “that the professed love of Jews by Christians is in some way a form of antisemitism, in spite of all evidence to the contrary.” The Rubinsteins highlight what they regard as a powerful and neglected tradition of Christian philosemitism.3 The 1 Miles Taylor, “John Bull and the Iconography of Public Opinion in England c.

  • The Mortara Affair and the Question of Thomas Aquinas's Teaching
    SCJR 14, no. 1 (2019): 1-18 The Mortara Affair and the Question of Thomas Aquinas’s Teaching Against Forced Baptism MATTHEW TAPIE [email protected] Saint Leo University, Saint Leo, FL 33574 Introduction In January 2018, controversy over the Mortara affair remerged in the United States with the publication of Dominican theologian Romanus Cessario’s essay de- fending Pius IX’s decision to remove Edgardo Mortara, from his home, in Bologna.1 In order to forestall anti-Catholic sentiment in reaction to an upcoming film, Cessario argued that the separation of Edgardo from his Jewish parents is what the current Code of Canon Law, and Thomas Aquinas’s theology of baptism, required.2 For some, the essay damaged Catholic-Jewish relations. Writing in the Jewish Review of Books, the Archbishop of Philadelphia, Charles Chaput, lamented that Cessario’s defense of Pius revived a controversy that has “left a stain on Catholic- Jewish relations for 150 years.” “The Church,” wrote Chaput, “has worked hard for more than 60 years to heal such wounds and repent of past intolerance toward the Jewish community. This did damage to an already difficult effort.”3 In the 1 On June 23rd, 1858, Pope Pius IX ordered police of the Papal States to remove a six-year-old Jewish boy, Edgardo Mortara, from his home, in Bologna, because he had been secretly baptized by his Chris- tian housekeeper after allegedly falling ill. Since the law of the Papal States stipulated that a person baptized must be raised Catholic, Inquisition authorities forcibly removed Edgardo from his parents’ home, and transported him to Rome.

  • The Modern Church
    Chapter 1 The Modern Church A man jumped from the crowd—a knife shimmered. Count Rossi’s scream was loud, but brief. The pope’s friend and now political colleague was suddenly on the ground, dying, stabbed with a dagger in the neck as he ascended the assembly hall stairs to present his plan for a new con- stitutional order. Rossi had been warned. The anger was tangible ever since Pius IX had withdrawn the papal army from the First Italian War of Independence. Violence had broken out in the streets of Rome, and Count Rossi had been declared an enemy of the people. That’s why none of the Civic Guards who witnessed his murder in the courtyard made any attempt to arrest the killer. Whatever His Holiness might say, it was nec- essary to get him out of Rome. Thankfully, the King of the Two Sicilies had offered him refuge. Pius escaped to Gaeta, about seventy-five miles south, disguised as an ordinary priest. Giving government addresses to a papal parliament was not some- thing popes or their assistants were used to doing. For centuries popes had governed their territory as monarchs, gaining vital protection for the Church against hostile kings, dukes, and nations. But when Giovanni-Ma- ria Mastai-Ferretti was elected Pope Pius IX in 1846, the world around him was moving toward parliamentary governments. The world was changing fast, in ways both good and bad. The sobriquet “first modern pope” has been applied to various popes of the recent and not-so-recent past. Pius IX probably deserves it most, though he would have wanted it least.

INTRODUCTION IN recent years, with increasing regularity, legal scholars and other com- mentators have called for changes in the legal systems and rules that govern child welfare.' Much of this discourse has been driven by a series of wrenching custody cases, in which judges have been called upon to bal- ance the claims of biological parents against those of third parties who have established durable attachments with children in their care. Under- standably, public opinion almost invariably supports the "de facto" or "psy- chological" parents, on the ground that it would do enormous harm to remove young children from a nurturing home. At the same time, claims of birth parents tend to be discounted as rigid formalities-mere proce- dural rights of adults that should not be allowed to interfere with the obvi- ous and unarguable interests of the children.

  • BEDE JARRETT, ARTHUR DAY and HANS HERZL Simon Mayers
    ZIONISM AND ANTI-ZIONISM IN THE CATHOLIC GUILD OF ISRAEL: BEDE JARRETT, ARTHUR DAY AND HANS HERZL Simon Mayers* ABSTRACT: This article examines Zionism and Anti-Zionism in the discourse of key members of the Catholic Guild of Israel, an English Catholic movement for the conversion of the Jews. The central theme in the discourse of the Guild was Jewish ‘power’. It was argued that the Jews had great vitality, zeal and energy, which made them dangerous outside of the Church, but an asset if they could be brought into it. This idea was disseminated by Bede Jarrett and Arthur Day, the two most senior and prolific members of the Guild. Their notions of Jewish power influenced their views about Jews and Zionism. They both saw Jewish power and Zionism as a threat and opportunity, but Jarrett placed the emphasis on threat, whilst Day placed the emphasis on opportunity. One prominent member of the Guild who did not gravitate to their views was Hans Herzl, a convert to Catholicism and the son of the Zionist leader, Theodor Herzl. On the surface Hans adopted the anti-Zionism of Jarrett. Unlike Jarrett, however, Hans believed in Jewish nationalism, although he interpreted it as a spiritual rather than political movement. His ideal Jewish nation was a ‘Christian theocracy of Jewish faith’ with the Pope as sovereign and protector. During the early decades of the twentieth-century, Jews were often stereotyped and mythologized in English Catholic newspapers, books, sermons and pastoral letters, as usurers, cowards, bolsheviks, conspirators, Christ-Killers and Antichrists.1 From 1917 onwards, following the Balfour Declaration, these myths and stereotypes combined with criticisms of Zionism to form a new composite construction: ‘the Zionist Menace’.
