BY way of
PREFACE,
I beg  the  reader to observe that I now publish
only thefirsl part of a work, the idea whereof suggested itself to my mind whilst I was cataloguing
my private library.  But, indeed, as the work was
growing in my hands, I felt that
Quitem 7ztiter odc'rit PcEdagog;um fecit!
which words,'tis true, apply in a direct sense to him
of the ferula; yet, when I read them first, they
were applied to himself by a lexicographer, who had
labored under difficulties very much akin to that of
my cacalo'wuMiog.
Be that as it may, I intend-adesle sznperi /-to
publish a list of works written by Catholics and
published in these United States.  I divide my list
in five parts, as follows:
I. Works written by Catholics, and published previous to
I82  iinCl.
II.   "   Original,    )
III.  "   Translated,      - from I821 to I873 i;ncL
IV.   "   Republications, j
V. Addenda.




6                   Preface.
To this work I have allotted all subsecivas h/ras
for some years, while it has also happened that at
times I could not copy one single title for months.
Duties too sacred to be neglected kept me busy at
something else. The most favorable time for work
was when an old-fashioned N. E. rheumatism (envious friends most perversely call it pocagra /- my
physician assures me oon oath'tis a slander) would
at stated times confine me to an olinzz  czan digniIale, days, weeks, and months, on a venerable armchair in my library.  Fortunately, whilst the underpins of the animal fabric were all ablaze, the upper
story was cool and free, ready to take in storage day
and night. In sooth, it has been my harvest time.
It has reminded me forcibly of the ancient saw, to
wit: "'Tis an'ill wind," etc.
I am under profound obligations to the Rt. Rev.
Prelates who never tired with my importune demands
for information, although they had often to search
old records and write lengthy epistles. Many clergymen have also furnished me with valuable items.
Among my correspondence I treasure letters from
eminent laymen of all denominations. In only three
instances have I been disappointed.  But I can find
a very satisfactory excuse for not receiving a reply:
my letters were most assuredly miscarried. In only




Preface.                  7
one instance a friend wrote "not to bother him any
more."  Amenities of literature!
Most earnestly do I beg of all who may feel an
interest in the work to favor me, either by letter to
my publisher or to myself, or through the press, with
any correction, suggestion, or addition. I shall most
gratefully make use of, and acknowledge them in the
Addeneda-for " blessed be the mending hand!"
The greatest pleasure I have found in the irksome
work was when I discovered historical or biographical items which, I flatter myself, may one day prove
useful to a competent historian of the Catholic
Church in America-a work the sooner commenced,
the better.
In one element my list is deficient: I mean the
German element.  My knowledge of the German
lanoguage being rather inadequate for the task of
examining books written in it, and some applications I have made having failed of theirs aim, I have
had very little chance of adding the titles of German
authors to my list. Should my work fall under the
eye of some scholar who feels an interest in the
matter, it will afford me great pleasure to place
such titles as may be sent to me or to my publisher among the  4ddentda, faithfully  crediting
the contributors.




8                      Preface.
This seems to me the best fitting place to give
some account of Bernard Dornin, to whom the
place of honor wtill most assuredly be given amongst
the earliest Catholic publishers in this country.
Mathew  Carey has done a great deal; but Mr.
Carey  devoted  his  energy  and  his talents and
his money  to  every  kind  of publications.   Mr.
Dornin was the first excztlsively Catholic publisher.
For the following, alas! very scanty information I
am indebted to Commodore Thomas Aloysius Dornin, U.S.N., of Baltimore.  The gallant and veteran officer,* in a courteous reply to my enquiries,
says:  "My  limited  knowledge  of my  deceased
father's career may be attributed  to my having
entered very early in amy life into the navy as a
midshipman, and, in fact, fresh from  school, and
having been kept very actively employed abroad,
I was thus cut off from  much family chat
and family history."  Then he informs me that Mr.
Bernard Dornin removed to this country from Dublin in I80o3.   He left Ireland in consequence of his
" At- p. I4 of the Register.... of t/ae N2zzy tf thle U. S., to January
I, i866, I read the following entry: "COMMIODORES. fReleired List.

political opinions.  He enjoyed the warm friendship
of the Emmetts, Dr. McNeven, and Counsellor
Samson, some of whom afterwards resided in New
York. Soon after settling in New York, he set up
an establishment in Newburc, N. Y., and another
in Edenton [?], N. C., book-selling and stationery.
Mr. Dornin enjoyed the warm friendship of Archbishop Carroll and of his successors, including Dr.
IKenrick.  He was esteemed an excellent writer,
highly educated, gifted with a fine memory, which
happily told in literary and social circles. At last lhe
withdrew from business, and went to Ohio, to reside
near his daughters, and died in 1836, aged 75 years.
Mr. Dornin's name as a bookseller I find as early as
i8o5 in the "2Vew Teslamenzt.  Brooklyn: Printed
by T. Kirk for Campbell & Mitchell...   D.
Smith &  B. DORNIN, Booksellers.  New  York,
I805" (O'CalGtaghaan's B3ibles, p. 8o, ad an. No. 3).
From the titles of "Mumford," and "Fletcher," and
"Elevation of the Soul," we learn that he was in
New York in I 808, in Baltimore in I8o), whence
he removed to  Philadelphia in 18I7.  A  little
pamphlet (Charity  School, v. inzfra) was published by B. D. in Baltimore, and bears the date
i807; but probably it refers to the establishment
of the school, not to the date of printing.  Laffan,




ir                         Preface.
the talented New  York correspondent of the Boston
Pilot, wrote once of Bernard Dornin:
V"We believe that Mr. Bernard Dornin was the first disznZLvel/y Catholic publisher of the United States. He is certainly
the first of whom we can find any trace in our notes.  LIe was
in business in  I82o, if not earlier.  Our friend, Mr. Eugene
Cummiskey, of Philadelphia, was the next in order of time.
IHe was the most eminent Catholic publisher in the country for
the twenty years from I820 to I840. Our lamented friend, John
Doyle, formerly of New York, and more recently of San Francisco, was a Catholic publisher and bookseller of distinction,
from I830 to I849 or I85o. Ile had a wonderful partiality-for
the pro-Catholic writings of William Cobbett, most of which he
stereotyped.  His plates are now worked by the Messrs. Sadlier of New.York."
In  conclusion, I send  forth  the little  work  witll
-many  misgivings;  nor would  I publish  it but for
the  urgent request of my friends.*    In  a work  of
* " REV'. AND DEAR SIR:
" Since my return home I have thought over the matter, and am more
and more convinced of the soundness of the advice which I gave you, to

"You have collected a great amount of curious Bibliographical and

and will bring out additional information, which will enable you to perfect it in a second edition.

this kind, written amidst many  interruptions, and
unable as I have been to visit many public and
private libraries, mistakes must have crept in.   Let,
then,  this  Bibliogra/Jiaz  go  forth  as  a  pioneer.
Scholars of keener scent and larger erudition, I
hope, will follow  me, and  try  to  fix  the landmarks
of Catholic  literature,  and  do  justice, although  a
tardy  one,  to  those  great  and  good  men  who,
amidst so many difficulties, have so earnestly, aye,

Catholic. Church has taken root, and is growing up vigorously in this
country, will be an increased interest among our people about everything connected with the planting and spread of our Faith in this part

(New York, 1857), we read at p. 66: "More Franciscans were invited (to Florida) in I 592.... Meanwhile, the Mexican father, Francis Pareja, drew up,
in the language of the Yamassees, his Abridgrmzent
of Christian Doctrine, the first work in any of our
Indian languages that issued from the press."  In
the Meltropolitaz (Balt., 1856, iv. p. 662) we read,
in an article on St. Augustine, Fla., "that the old
Franciscan Convent is now the U. S. Barracks,"
and "here labored Pareja, compiling for the converts those works on Tdmuquana which are the oldest books in any of our Indian languages, and are
now so rare that no price can be deemed extravagant."

Before the Revolution, a few Catholic books were

Catholic families has a copy of Bossuzet's Ex5osilion,

great straits for Catholic books. A Jesuit missionary (Frambach?) copied the whole MAissal, preserved,
I think, in Georgetown College.

Matthew Field was an Irishman by descent, b. in England;
his family, intensely Catholic, left Ireland during the Rebellion:
and resided in Stockport, England, in order to avoid prosecution. A brother or brother-in-law of M. F. was kidnapped for
singing a rebel song, and was never heard from afterwards.
The family came to America in'I5. or thereabout. Matthew
Field died of cholera in Baltimore (1832?). His son, Joseph M.,
was six years old when he came to this country, became a prolific and brilliant writer, a contributor to many magazines, a
writer of fine plays, but died suddenly of asthma, in Mobile,
I856. Ile made no profession of religion, although he was baptized in the Catholic Church; and had also served as a clerk at
the altar. He often wrote for the press under the pseudonym
of "Straws."  His talented daughter, Kate Field, baptized a
Catholic, professes no determined religion, and has written
valuable contributions to magazines and newspapers, often
signing herself "Straws, Jr."  Amongst her ancestors she
reckons Nathaniel Field, a member of the "Shakespeare's
Company," and author of Womlnan as a Wieathercock. Allibone
speaks of a Matthew C. Field, but his items do not square with

Badin preserved his national vivacity to the end, always " on
the go" for some holy purpose. When his portrait, a very fine
one, was taken, a friend remarked, " Lo! the first time I see
him still." It is unpardonable that the lives of men like Fr.
Badin, Nerinckx, Richard, and such other pioneers of the
Catholic Church should not have been written zti extenso. The
generation of Catholic priests connecting those heroes with us
is fast passing away, and thus the sweet o.dor of their great
virtues will vapor away from the memory of mankind. In the
Sketches of the Early Catholic Mzssions in Kentucky, by M. J. Spalding, D.D. (the late venerated Archbishop of Baltimore),
Bardstown, I844, at p. I25, we read the following note: " A volume of considerable size might be made of the various writings
of M. Badin, which are well worth preserving in this form. We
have reason to hope that something of the kind will be hereafter published."  Hereafter!.... Badin's name is not in Allibone, yet he was an American patriot, scholar, and writer.]

Dr. Cheverus, as we mention izfra?  However, considering
that Isaiah Thomas has been very careful to omit the name of
every Catholic printer in his work, even of Mathew Carey

believe he would print a Catholic book unless under the pressure of auri sacra fames.

"J'ai lu attentivement, et conipare avec la Vulgate cette

"BOSTON, 22 Decembre, ISio."
The Text is in paragraphs, without notes, but with an introduction to each book concluding with a pious aspiration.
The version of the New Testament by Le Maistre de Sacy (b.
in Paris, 1613, Director of Port Royal, d. i684) and others
appeared at Mons in i667, but was condemned (by Clement IX.,
April 20, i668, and ed. Bruxellis I675, sive alzis in locis,
Decr. Sep. I9, 1679, Innocent XI.) as made to favor Jansenism.
A corrected edition accordingly appeared the same year [?], and
subsequent editions omitting or correcting the censured portions
were well received. Le Maistre de Sacy, in I672-95, published
a version of the whole Bible (or only the Old Testament (?),
composed during three years' confinement in the Bastille), which
was modified subsequently by [Carrieres?] Calmet and others.
His edition of the New Testament, published at Paris in I759,
with approbation, has been taken as a standard, and was probably
followed in this edition, although we cannot say so positively.
Having been compared by Bishop Cheverus with the Vulgate
and approved by him,'tis to be presumed that it is after the
standard edition.-See further, Dic/ionnaire de Bibiogoraczhie
Catholique, ch. xi. and xii.
[Since writing the above, I found among my papers a letter of
Dr. Cheverus to Mr. Thomas Walley, of Brookline, from which
I copy:
"BOSTON, September 24, x8Io.!Dear Sir: I believe you have our I6th volume of La BiU3'.&

the New Testament which this volume contains is on the point
of going to the press, and we cannot do without this book..
"I received yesterday a letter from the worthy Archbishop
Carroll. I expect to leave this town for Baltimore either the
8th or the 15th of October.... The consecration will take
place-either on the Festival of All Saints or the Sunday within
the Octave.
"With sincere and respectful friendship, yours,
"J. CHEVERUS."
The holy life of the distinguished first Bishop of N. E. has
been described by able hands, but I fear my account of the
divers sources of information will prove insufficient.  The
Bioograpzzie Catholizue (Paris, MDCCCXLIV.) says: "On a public
dernierement une excellente Vie dc M. Cheverus, en 8vo et
12mo, 3me edition,... par M. l'Abbe J. Huen-Dubourg. L'Acad6mie franqaise, en couronnant cet ouvrage, s'est honoree."
Then we have  The Life of Card. C., Abfi. of aBordeaux,
and formerly Bishop of Boston, in Massachusetts, by J. HuenDubourg,... translated from the French by E. Stewart. Boston: James Munroe & Co. I839.                         F.

372-389 contain an Appendix of Notes explanatory of the
Text and refuting adverse remarks of Protestant papers made
at the appearance of the Life. Mr. E. Stewart was a Protestant, according to the Preface of the French edition of'58.
Then, again: Lzye of the Cardinal de C., Abj5. of Bordeaux. By
the Rev. J. Huen-Doubourg,... translated by Robert M.

contain Notes different from the Stewart edition, and the texts,
although bearing similarity to each other, give evidence of two
different hands. Of this Philadelphia edition, a distinguished
American Catholic historian writes: "The real author is -the
Rev. Mr. Hamon, a Sulpitian."  And Mr. Hamon is styled the
biographer of Cheverus by other writers. (Hamon's Treatise
on Calechism. Cincinnati: Walsh. i86I.) This puzzle is rendered more intricate by the following title:
Vie di Card. de Cheverus, Archzevue de de  ordeaux.  Par M. le
Cure de Saint-Sulpice, Auteur de la Vzie de Saint Frangois de
Sales. Cinquidme edition. Paris: Lecoffre. 1858.        F.
In the Preface, pp. I-5, allusion is made, to Mr. Stewart's
translation. The Text, pp. 7-4Io, is more or less the original
followed both in the Boston and Philadelphia translations.
pp. 410-435, augmented:; pp. 437-46o, iPieces justzcatz'ves, table,

NOTE.-R. M. Walsh published also: Sketches of Conspzczuolus

Philadelphia: Lea & Blanchard. I84r. pp. 332. I2mo.  F.
It contains sketches, among the rest, of Thiers, Chateaubriand, Lamartine, De La Mennais, Broglie, etc. It is a book
both interesting and useful. Allibone mentions another edition
of Cheverus's Life, by Mr. Walsh, of I841. I have failed to
secure it. Were the library of the Bishop of Boston exami~nable, I might glean some items of the earliest French editions
of Cheverus's Life, but, in consequence of a temporary change
of residence, the library may be considered boxed up. We
hope to obtain a great deal of light from the forthcoming
zistory of the Catholic Church in N. E., by Rev. James Fitton.

resided, "the model of pastors," the last fifty-three years of his
life. In Exeter, 1780, he published the History of the Bible, 2
vols. I2mo, which is wrongfully styled from the French, because, although it was at first a free translation of the Abrege de
Royaznmont, he afterwards remoulded the whole work, as can be
well proven by a collation of texts (see De Feller's Dict. Bio'gr.).
Royaumont is a pseudonym assumed by Louis Isaac le Maistre
de Sacy (v. sufira), who is the real author, although by others it
is ascribed to Nicholas Fontaine, who had been De Sacy's companion in prison.  Says the preface to the Exeter edition,
I780: "The translator had not far advanced in his undertaking
before he perceived that the author's intended brevity had
made his performance, in many parts, defective and obscure;
and that, to convey any tolerably clear and connected account
of the sacred history, the rules of translation were to be set
aside, and the text itself more closely attended to.  It likewise
appeared, upon a nearer examination, that the compiler, in
some of his reflections, had not less studiously flattered his
friends of Port-Royal than he had been partially severe, in
others, upon the dignitaries of the Church, and in many of his
passages had given such a turn to the thought and expression
of the fathers, as was more calculated to support an enthusiastic
system of theology than to promote the interests of true piety."]

"Burke's pamphlet on the Society of the Cincinnati produced a sensation at the time of its publication. Judge Burke
accused the Society of aiming at the establishment of an
hereditary order in the State, and denounced it vehemently as
an utterly unrepublican association.  Randall, in his Lzfe of
7efferson, affirms that the appearance of this pamphlet was the
signal for a general onslaught on the society.'The Governor
of South Carolina condemned it in an address. The Legisla-.
tures of at least three States (Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and
Rhode Island) passed resolutions of censure.  Our plenipotentiaries in Europe wrote home, expressing mortified regrets
that all our previous doctrines of government were thus repudiated. The friends of popular freedom in Europe generally,
who had sympathized with the cause in America, joined in
these mortifications and regrets. Four out of five, probably,
of the entire population of the United States took the' same
view of the subject.' (Life of 7efferson, by Hon. Henry S.
Randall, vol. i. pp. 406, 407.) Alexander Johnston, in his eulogistic Account of the Society of the. Cincinnati, admits that the
pamphlet of LEdanus Burke, an eccentric Irishman (was he or
was he not a citizen, and, consequently, an American?) who
held a seat on the Supreme Bench of South Carolina,'was ably
written, and caused no little sensation.'  He mentions the




58      Bibliograp/hia -Ca/tolica A mericanza.
confirmatory action of several States through their legislatures, and adds-that:' The consternation crosses the Atlantic.
The celebrated Mirabeau,... then an exile in London,
edited a French version of Burke's pamphlet, with
copious annotations, in which he Was assisted by his friend and
faithful adherent, Nicholas Chamfort.'  (AMemoirs of the Ilistorical Soczety of Pennsylvaniza, vol. vi. pp. 27, 28.) Judge Burke's
elevation to the Bench of South Carolina dated back to the
year 1778. (Ramsay's South Carolina edition of I858, vol. ii. p.
87.)"-Llaffan (AM. Hennessey), N. Y. correspondenlzt Boston Pilot,
April, I868.
The following notice of an eminent Irish Catholic, a founder
of the Order of Cincinnati, from the same pen, will be read
with interest:
"Colonel Stephen Moylan's Cavalry was the regiment known
as the 4th Light Dragoons in the Continental service. The
regiment was organized early in I777, and all through the war
for Independence it did noble work against the'hereditary
enemy.' At the close of that war, its commander ranked as a
full brigadier-general, and in the subsequent years of his life he
was always called General Moylan. He was one of thze fouztlers
of the Society of the Cizcizznnati. He died in Philadelphia, on the
i Ith of April, i8ii (which was a fast-day in Pennsylvania), and
was interred in the burial-ground of St. Mary's Church, South
Fourth Street....  Gen. Moylan was the first and last
president of the Society of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick,
Philadelphia, of the history of which we have already given a
sketch in our Records.       He was a brother of the Right
Rev. Francis Moylan, Roman Catholic Bishop of Cork, Ireland,
from 1787 to I8I5, and the intimate friend of the Right Rev.
Daniel Delany, Roman Catholic Bishop of Kildare from I787
to I814, of whom Mr. Fitzpatrick (in his deeply interesting




Bibliogorajihia Catholica A mericaza.         59
Lzfe, Times, and Correst5ondence of the Rzight Rev. Dr. Doyle, as
published by Mr. Donahoe, six years ago) makes quaint mention. -' Dr. Moylan idolized Dr. Delany, and the Bishop of
Kildare was often for three months on a visit with his Right
Rev. brother of Cork.' (Life, etc., of Dr. Doyle, vol. i, p. I32.)
Three other brothers of Gen. Stephen Moylan, namely,
Jasper, James, and John Moylan, all took an active part in the
establishment of the independence of the United States. They
were, of course, all Roman Catholics. Jasper was an able,
though not brilliant, member of the Bar of Philadelphia. His
practice was extensive. In 1797, his office was at No. 95 Walnut Street. His only child was the wife of an eminent Catholic
Irish-American, Robert Walsh, Esq., the celebrated editor and
reviewer of the author of the At5 eat of th/e United States from
th e zudgnzents of Great Brz'zain; Dizadctics; etc., who died in
Paris, some years ago." [v. zinfra.]
"In I799, Col. A. Burr fought his first duel. It arose from
scandals connected with the Holland Land Company.  One
John B. Church had spoken with so much freedom respecting
the rumor, as to elicit from the slandered legislator (A. B.) a
challenge to mortal combat. At Hoboken, September 2, the
parties met.  A ridiculous incident..  furnished a byword for many a day. Before leaving home, Col. Burr had
been particular to explain to his second, Judge Burke, of South
Carolina, that the balls were cast too small for his pistols,; and
that the chamois-leather, cut to the proper size, must be
greased and put around them to make them fit. Leather and
grease were placed in the case with the pistols. After the
principals had been placed, Burr noticed Judge Burke vainly
endeavoring to drive in the ramrod with a stone, and at once
suspected that the grease had been forgotten. A moment
after, the pistol was handed to him. With that singular coolness which he was wont to exhibit at critical moments, he

"I know it,' replied the second, wiping the perspiration'ronm his face. -'I forgot. to grease the leather; but, -you see,
your man is ready; don't keep him waiting. Just take a crack
as it is, and I'll grease the next.'
"Shots were exchanged without effect. Mr. Church then
made the requisite apology, and the parties returned to the
city in the highest good-humor." —Parton's Lzye of A. Burr.

Charles Butler is a familiar name with the Catholics who are
well acquainted with the Lives of the Saints written by his
uncle, the Rev. Alban Butler, whose very interesting biography, by Charles, is prefixed to the American editions of the
work. Allibone, in his Dictionary of Autfhors, gives for once a
pretty good account of the literary habits and persevering
labors of this Catholic author. Yet, my readers should know
that Charles Butler had the misfortune of trespassing on
Catholic questions, for which discussions he was not qualified.
For, in the language of the able historian of the Church of
EnSglannd, " Butler's successful pursuits as a great conveyancer
left him but few intervals for the study of history. How much
he is at a loss in this extensive field of study is obvious at a
glance....  His Jfemoirs, useful as they really are, yet
abound with inaccuracy.... To rectify some of his errors,
Dr. Milner wrote, perhaps too warmly, his excellent Supplementary Memoir." Canon Flanagan, History of England, v. ii.

"BALTIMORE, Dec. 30, 187I.
"' Dear Sir: I greatly regret that I can give you so meagre an
account of the publishing firm of' G. Dobbin & Murphy,' which
existed in Baltimore from about the year I804 or I805 (it may be
a year earlier) till i8ii or I812. The members of the firm wereGeorge Dobbin, born in County Armagh, Ireland, and Thomas
Murphy, born in the City of Cork, Ireland. Mr. Dobbin fled
from Ireland in the troubles of I798, in the exciting transactions,
of which he took an active part as a United Irishman.
"Mr. Murphy came to this country in his boyhood. Both;
gentlemen were Presbyterians,.. in which communion Mr..
Dobbin died. In the latter part of his life, Mr. Murphy belonged

In a short preface is remarked': "A spurious and subreptitious

lately smuggled into the world in a clandestine manner, at
London," etc. Indeed, Fr. O'Leary was rather hasty, and his
services officious. This called forth:

1775, he entered into partnership under the firm of Styner &
Cist, Second Street, corner Coat's Alley. He died in Bethlehem, Pa., December I, i8o5.

famous Catholic Question in 1813 (v. Sampson). Dr. Wharton
improved the opportunity to have another fling at the Church,

CARROLL, CHARLES, OF CARROLLTON.
It is useless to give here a sketch of his-life.  Of his famous
Yournal, published in 1845, by Murphy, of Baltimore, of which
I have a costly copy, with nineteen illustrations and C. Carroll's
autograph, I will speak in the second part of the Bibziograh5z'a.
But Mr. Carroll was an early Catholic writer. As early as
1765 (twenty-one years before his reverend cousin's Address, v.
siiq5ra), when he returned from Europe, " a finished scholar and
an accomplished gentleman," he engaged in public controversy
in vindication of the colonists during the excitement of the
Stamp Act. The Maryland Gazelle was his organ. Ile was
only twenty-seven years old. The Gazette was in so much
demand, that Mr. Galloway, Speaker of the Pennsylvania Assembly, copied it with his own hand, in order to send it to
Benjamin Franklin. Afterwards, Charles Carroll wrote over
the signature of "'The First Citizen."  In i765, the Gazelltte (it
had existed since 1727) was discontinued on account of -the
Stamp Act, but occasionally its printers issued a paper called
The Oy5jiositzon of t/e Maryland Gazelle, " which is not dead, but
sleepeth" (Kenny, p. IIo).  Most probably Charles Carroll
contributed to, if he was not the instigator of, these papers.
He wrote also, says Clarigny, many articles for the Pennsylvania
Gazette.  See N. Dwight's 23Te Lives of Ithe Signers  ff the
Declaration of Indefpendence. New York: A. S. Barnes & Burr,
51 and 52 John Street. i86o.
I have in my possession a bronze medal, rare, and of which
no specimen is to be found in the collection at the Mint.

[The first edition appeared in England, I737. It so provoked
Middleton and his friends that they endeavored to procure
Challoner's arrest under pretence of his being disaffected to
the Government. He therefore withdrew to the Continent.
Become a convert in 1704, was consecrated Coadj. Bp. of Dr.
Petra, Vic. Ap. of London, January 29, 174I. Of him wrote a
Protestant minister: "January I2, I78I. Buried Dr. Challoner,
popish priest, titulary Bp. of Debra, London, and Salisbury (?),
Vic. Ap. for the Roman Church in England, a very good, very
pious, very learned man, one of extraordinary qualities."
During his administration the Church suffered terribly, perhaps no less than under Queen Elizabeth.]

[For this work as well as for Eustace, v. infra, I am inadebted
to the kindness of my old and highly esteemed friend, John
Murphy, of Baltimore.
A note worth being carefully read: "Fr. de Ravignan-his
zeal redoubled at the sight of death approaching his friend
(Chateaubriand)-by his presence and his words gave- comfort
and courage to the veteran politician and writer now standing
on the brink of the grave; beyond the fading poetry of life,
beyond the shades of death, now almost seeming to lose their
darkness, he pointed out thebright, all-important reality, Hope,
the daughter of Faith, and that better immortality which is
not of this world. The great writer, brought face to face with
eternity, with ~faculties yet unimpaired, resolved to cut out of
his works every page which his conscience rejected.  The
happiness he felt in tearing them up was some compensation
for his grief in having written them. On his death-bed, he
dictated the following memorandum to his nephew, who put it
in our hands:
"'I declare, before God, that I retract every passage in my
writings opposed to the Faith, to good morals, or to sound
principles in general.
"'Signed in behalf of my uncle, Francis de Chateaubriand,
who is unable to hold the pen, and agreeably to his request.
"' GEOFFROY-LouIs  DE CHATEAUBRIAND.'
"When this declaration had been put in writing, the dying
man caused it to be read to him, insisted even on reading it with
his own eyes, then, with peace in his soul,...  he passed
without a struggle to that God, etc.
"This last will has hitherto (i86o) remained without effect.
But the literary heritage of the author of the MNemoizrsfrom
Beyond t/e Tomb no longer belongs to his family."-From De

DAPONTE, LORENZO.
[Born in Ceneda,- Venetian States,'March IO, 1749, d. New
York, August I7, 1838. Formerly a Catholic priest, he afterwards
married. Came to New York in I8o5.; introduced the Italian
opera here, as J. G. Shea informs me, and was appointed Professor of Italian Literature in Columbia College at the age of So.
He was reconciled with the Catholic Church on his deathbed.
A' Besides various dramas, he is the author of ~Memoirs of his
own life, of a number of sonnets, and of translations of Byron's
Prophhecy of Daete, and of Dodsley's Economy of zoHuman Lfje, all
printed in New York."-Aphilelozo's Cyclojacdia. I have been
unable to procure any of his works or see their titles.  Hence
I merely insert his name here, hoping to be able to give further
details in the second part of the Bzblior A/i/a.  It is said that
he took the Hon. Mr. Cameron in hand when a boy, and educated him. Aqllibone has not the name.]
DAVID, J. B.
[See the interesting life of this great missionary of the West
in Dr. Spalding's Sketches of Ken/tzuZy. Suffice here to remark
that he was born near Nantes, France, A.D. x76I.  He came to
this country in 1792, was consecrated Bishop Coadjutor to Dr.
Flaget, of Bardstown, Ky., Aug. IS, i819, and d. July 12, 184T,

likeness betrays the soul of a saint. In I809 he published
a prayer-book, the True Piely.  It is a reprint of the Cork edition of 1797. I have before me the copy used by Bishop David,
with the alterations in his handwriting.  It only forms the
groundwork of the much enlarged American edition. Here I

[These two editions differ from the Cork and the David editions, and from each other. In Bishop Spalding's Sketches, at
page 256, we read that "Fr. David's Prayer-Book, like many
other works, has since been improved for the worst; and Fr.
David was wont to call the new editions, with a smile, the false
Trite Pietzies."]

is introduced by a letter to the publisher (was I. Riley'a Catholic in profession, as he was in name?), by the celebrated sceptic,
Dr. Sam. L. Mitchill, who gives it as a source of recommendation to many that the author writes more like a man of business than a man of science.  The introductory remarks are a
hasty translation by the doctor. The text does not seem to
bear evidence of perfect English style, and much less of one
well acquainted with Catholic terms. Of the author I have
been unable to find any. information. My copy bears the autograph of W. Irving.  The original edition is entitled" Voyafge

[Rev.. Mr. Dubois " escaped from one of the fusillades of the

in the East India Company Library until it was translated.

on a translation of the French MS. entrusted by the author to

Peter Stephen Duponceau, b. in France, June 3, I76o, d. in
Philadelphia, April I, I844; made studies preparatory for the
priesthood; landed at Portsmouth, N. H., December i, 1777;
was attached to Baron Steuben's staff. In July, 1781, he became
a citizen, and since 1785 was-one of the most successful members of the American bar. In the Hogan imbroglio he sided
with the schismatics, until he became disgusted with the whole
affair, and, with M. Carey, and others, withdrew his name and
influence. M. Duponceau, whilst practising law, translated
several valuable books on law, and published original essays- on the same subject.  In connection wnvith the American.- Philosophical Society, of which  he  had  been a
member since I.79, he published, in 18rg, a report on Tte:

[Rev. Benedict Joseph Fenwick succeeded Bishop Cheverus
in the Episcopal See of Boston in I825. For a notice of this
eminent prelate see R. H. Clarke's Lzves of Deceased Bis/ovjs,
and the truly eloquent tribute paid to his memory by Dr. O. A.
Brownson (Brozwnsoiz's Qutarltery Review, October, I846). The
following Latin eulogy, written by a young Italian on the occasion of his death, and privately circulated, was never published.
It was intended for a scroll to be placed in the coffin at the
Bishop's burial in the grave-yard attached to the Jesuit College
of Holy Cross, near Worcester, Mass. The Bishop's grave,
although not neglected, was for many years left unadorned by
any monument. The lamented Rev. Mr. Boyce alludes to this
neglect in his nyfamy Lee (p. 319, Balt. ed., i868) in words of much
feeling, indeed, but, perhaps, in not very good taste. However,
a reparation has been made by the Rev. John Brady, in I867,
under the superintendence of Rev. John Powers, of Worcester.
An elegant and costly monument of white marble adorns the
grave of one of the very best of men.

wrote polemics on the limits of temporal authority in matters
concerning church discipline. The V. A. of London put a censure on his work, but G. appealed to Rome, where he personally defended his position. In the library of the Archbishop
of Baltimore I found "A Serties of Letters addressed to the Pro/tcesant CoGmmztzzzy on /lhe Secret Catzses of M/ze Icirease of Catholics;

[" Coyne, on his way to London, paid Dr. Milner a visit at

nMr. Coyne, I amn going to say AMass; you need not come
down to the chapel.' And, opening a door in the wall, he said:' Here is a little tribune opening on the chapel where I say my
prayers.' Coyne found on the Bishop's kneeling-place a Following of Christ, a Tkzizk tk/ill Otz', and a Gardenz of the Soul,
all worn and blackened with the Bishop's thumbs. When Dr.
Doyle heard this, a tear burst into his eyes, and he exclaimed,'That gives me a greater idea of Dr. Milner than his End of

became Judge of the Supreme Court, and with him the clause in
the Constitution of N. C. against Catholics became a deadletter.

Allibone does not mention him, as, in fact, Catholic names
are slightly considered by that compiler. Mr. Gaston was baptized in his infancy in the Catholic Church, his mother being a
Catholic, educated by the Dominican Nuns in France. His
father was an Irish Presbyterian, and formerly a Surgeon in
the British Navy. Judge Gaston's accomplished daughter,
2Mrs. E. G. Graham, lives in Upper AMarlborough, Md.
In O'Conor's War of i8I2, p. 179, 4th ed., we read the following: "Mrs. Gaston, of Newburn, wife of the Member of Congress, being told that the British had landed and would shortly
be in possession of Newburn, fell into convulsive fits, and
expired in a few hours."
"HON. WILLIAM GASTON, N. C.-The Washington correspondent of the Ball/otire Calhohic Mzirror made an excellent
suggestion when he wrote that some memorial of William Gaston should be erected in Georgetown College-he having been
the first student who entered his name on the-roll of that timehonored Alma Mater. Judge Gaston was one of the greatest
men of his time: Representative in the councils of his own
State, United States Senator, Judge of the Supreme Court, and
a lawyer inferior to none, and-the best of all-an excellent
Catholic. We suggest that the next anniversary of his birth
(Sept. 19, I387) should be keilz; or that of his opening the list
of so many brave young men who have honored Georgetown
College. Invite some distinguished man who will do honor to
the name by skilfull arrangement of diligent researches made
of the particulars of his life, to deliver a bioo-rajhtical oration
on that day. It should be some old student, and, if possible, a
member of the Philodemic Society from the same State. We
Catholics (and our Catholic institutions are to be blamed for
it) neglect too much those memories of great and good men
whose deeds should be treasured in the hearts of posterity.
William Gaston has been lying in his grave four-and-twenty




JibZiogrcalphki  Ca/holica Amzericacz.    1 I29
years. Should not Georgetown College show her appreciation
for the honor of having been the Alma Mater of such a distinguished son? We remember the reverence with which the
lamented Dr. Ryder always mentioned the name of Judge
Gaston. It was a household name with him. Let the members
of the Philodemic Society take the matter in hand at once.
We feel confident that none will refuse to contribute his quota
to defray necessary expenses, nay, it will be a source of pleasure with them as it will be with

[William FIogan has gained too great a notoriety in one of
the severest trials of the Catholic Church in this country, and
his rebellious attempts at subverting the fundamental laws of
Church discipline have such bearings on the history of the

[On the testimony of Rev. G. D. Hogan, W. Hogan's cousin,
"This sermon, which he (NW. H.) gave as his own production,
was given by the Rev. Justin McNamara, of Cork, with many
other sermons." It ends by exhorting his hearers "to adhere
to the religion of their forefathers. Be not the dupes of any
enthusiast who calls himself a minister of the Gospel." Rev.
W. H., on his arrival from Limerick to New York, was employed for some time in Albany, which place he left towards
the close of I819 (?) against the Bishop's wish, and received
temporary jurisdiction by the Vicar Administrator of Philadelphia to minister in St. Mary's Church. Bishop Conwell arrived
in the latter part of I82o, and in December I4th he withdrew
Mr. Hogan's faculties, on account of dubious morality (suspicions fully justified by subsequent disclosures). Mr. H. continued to officiate... and on the IIth of February, I82I, he
was excommunicated. These few hints will give the key to the
history of the pamphlets, a list whereof I have endeavored to
put together in chronological order.]

I822.  Nov. 30. The Ca/holic Herald and WeekIy Regis/er
was started by E. F. Crozet; it seems to advocate Hogan and
St. Mary's schism. The three first numbers, and the only ones I
have seen, not only continue upholding the schism, but are of
a blasphemous tone in Catholic matters generally.
[The true Catholzc Herald was started about ten years afterwards, and flourished for many years as a sterling Catholic.
paper.  Mr. Spellissy, I believe, was the last editor, and
buried it.]
Dec.    7.   The  Brief of His  Holiness,
Pope Pius the Seventh, addressed to Ambrose, Abp.
of Baltimore, to his Suffragan Bishops, to the Administrators of the Temporalities of the Churches,
and  to  all the  Faithful in the  United States of
America.
The Brief is given in both Latin and English, pp. 3-I4. Then,
in the copy before me, follow two pages numbered 9 and Io,
stating the decision of the Pope, against W. H., to be final, and
given after a careful perusal of documents on both sides, all endorsed by a Letter from Mgr. Pedicini, Secretary of Propaganda.
Mr. Hogan then gives a Correspondence, pp. II?-34, endeavoring to prove that he had sulbmitted, but that the absence of authenticity in the Brief, and other' causes, induced him to adopt
another course!
-    In Poulson's Americanl Daily Advertiser and the Franklin Gazette are given summary reports of the proceedings in
Court against W. H. for his continuing to celebrate in St. Mary's
after having been excommunicated, May 27, I822. When the




B'ibliograryhlia Calzolicc A mersictua.    16I
decision of the Supreme Court was given against him, he persisted in being in the Sanctuary with the Bp. and the Clergy —
6th, I3th, and 2oth, I823-Mass could not be said. The people
grew tumultuous. Hence the charges against H., who employed
in his behalf Messrs. Du Ponceau, C. J., and J. R. Ingersoll,
whilst the Bp. was supported by Messrs. Hopkinson, Chauncey,
Kittern, and Keating. The Court bound W. H. to appear before the Mayor, and advised the friends of Bp. Conwell not to
worship in St. Mary's until the trial before the Mayor's Court, in
M[arch, shall be determined. The opinion of the Court, in courteous style, is given in full in the Democratic Press.
The Demzocratic Free Press published, with sober re:miarks by B. A. M., what purports to be the genuine copy of the.
Excommunication pronounced against W. H., May 27, i821. If
it is genuine, Dr. Conwell did not follow the formula given in.
the Rom. Pontifical.  In a subsequent number of the D). F.
Press, B. A. M. confirms the genuineness of the copy aforesaid,
on the testimony of the Bishop and the Clergy, and adds: "This
form is not to be found in the Pontif. Rom.... It was prepared in this city, and adapted not only to the case of the Individual, but to the age and the country in which it was read."

I822-23.  At the latter part of'22 and during'23 the battle
waxed very hot, and it received new impulse from the publica.
tion of the Pope's Rescript. The following papers were engaged:
The Democratic Press, The Aurora, The Natio;hal Gazelle, The
Gazelle and Daizy Advertiser, The Frankli'n Gazette, The Erint
(with an angel's name and a devil's tongue), The Amrerican Sentinel and M/f ercantile Advertiser (in which " Catholicus " wrote six
letters in behalf of the schism —M. Carey's?), The American
Daily Advertiser, all of Philadelphia; The Shamrock, of New
York, against the Hoganites and with telling'force (Th. O'Con-'or's); The Columbian Observer, Phila.; The Advocate and Irishm1nan's _oournal; The Baltimore Federal Gazettle-reporting a
meeting of the Catholics at the Cathedral in Balt. condemning;the schism, and conveying their resolutions through Charles Carroll of Carrollton, which resolutions were replied to with insult
by the Hoganites.  The Columbian Observer gives Peter S. Duponceau's opinion, based on a wrong interpretation of the jus
Jpatronatus.  At this time the case was laid before the Grand Jury:of Philadelphia, and from thence was carried to the Senate,
where an amendment was passed in opposition to the laws of the'Catholic Church, vetoed by Gov. Hiester (Mch. 27, I823), re-,considered in the Senate, and losa.

Several communications, dated fronm Charleston, S. C., during

Episcopal authority, law of celibacy, etc., written by WV. Hogan.
June 26. The Trustees of St. Mary's Church publish
a card protesting against Rev. WT. Hogan's purpose of preaching
to that congregation; to which WV. H. replies with a letter, June

by letters in the public papers, replete with criminations and recriminations between W. H. and the Trustees.

that time she wandered in the streets... an especial favorite with children.       Her ostensible business was that of

[Padre Molina was a very learned Jesuit of the Province of
Chili, South America, whence he was ostracised with all
his brethren, in 1765, by the Bourbon Charles III. After
much suffering and many trials, he at last found rest in Bologna,
Italy, where with several other members of the Company he
devoted himself to study and scientific pursuits. He died very
poor, Sept. I3, I829, and was buried in a pauper's grave, at the
Certosa. Some years after the Municipality of Bologna caused
his bust to be placed in the Pantheon, among the illustrious
men of Bologna. But no inscription records his merits. The
book whereof the title is given above seems to be a translation
of an original work published in I782, a second edition of the
first part of which Molina printed in large quarto, Bologna:
AMasi e comp. i8io (F.) pp. v. and 307, with a new map, and
dedicated to " Eugenio Napoleone figlio di Napoleone Augusto."

It has also a beautiful portrait of the author by the celebrated
engraver J. Rosaspina, taken in I8o5.  In 1776 Molina had already published a Conmzendio della Slorza Geog~rafica Natzrale e

S. Tonzzaso d'Azqizo. Pp. viii. and 246, with a map and ten
illustrations (F.) A 2d ed. of this work, pub. in I787, is mentioned at p. 272 of the 4to map ed. Molina's history was translated into French by Gravel, in I792, also into German and Spanish. It is quoted by Gmelin in his enlarged ed. of Systlema

I hope I shall not be charged with iinpropriety because I
transcribe in full the following:
"NEW YORK, Feb. 25th, I867.
"DEAR SIR:
"My father emigrated in i8oi, and died in this city in
i855, at the age of 85. I think he never aspired to the character of an author. He first resorted to his pen as a means of
earning a scanty subsistence for his family. This must have
been about the year I8ir. He was connected with the press at
intervals thenceforward until he had reached a very advanced
age.
"War was declared against Great Britain June I8th, I8I2.
Samuel Woodworth, a printer, but subsequently well known as
a poet, novelist, and Swedenborgian preacher, at once commenced a [quarto] weekly newspaper called The WVar.  AlMy
father was its editor for two or three months. His connection
with that paper then ceased; and, in conjunction with Stephen
Wall, a countryman of his, he edited for a couple of years, beginning about Sept., I812, a weekly paper called The Mlzf/a-y
_Monizor. Subsequently he edited for two or three years, commencing in I8I5, a weekly called The Shamrock. In January,
I8I9, he commenced the publication of a monthly magazine
called The Globe. Its proprietors avowed no particular views;
but its contents indicate that it was The Shzamrock in a new
form. Ireland and Catholicity were its leadingtopics. It lasted
about a year. In I8I5 he wrote for one John Low, a publisher,
a single volume entitled a' History of the War.' It had a good'
circulation.

"The book of which you particularly enquire must have been
issued in numbers to subscribers. Its title-page is' The Inquisition Examined by an Impartial Reviewer.  Religzionis non esi
Rezzgzonzem cogere. New York: Printed by J. Desnoues, 23 Provost-Street. I825.' I have a single bound copy. In May, 1824,
I was admitted to the bar; and from that time my father had no
business connection with the press, nor any resort to literature
except to gratify some emotion of his heart. I presume he wrote
the'Inquisition Examined' gratuitously, at the request of Mr.
Desnoues, who was an old friend.
"He was brought up by his grandfather,'the Irish antiquarian.'
He was a devoted Catholic, an enthusiastically patriotic
Irishman, and, as a necessary consequence, was averse to the
government of Britain, and deeply attached to the republican
institutions of his adopted country. These characteristics exhibit themselves in all his literary efforts. Whether employed
in procuring bread for his family or in the freely chosen pursuits of easy leisure, his pen was always under the influence of
these sentiments. It was ever directed in vindicating the fame of
Ireland, the honor of our United American States, or the truth
and purity of his cherished Mother the Apostolic Church...
" I am, dear sir, yours truly,
"CH. O'CONOR."
To my esteemed friend, Michael Hennessy, Esq., of New
York, I am indebted for the following additional items: " I had,
at one time, in my possession, copies of both The War and The

Wall, who'had been induced by him..  to associate his
talents and military knowledge with him,' Yhe Mililary Monitor
was started by him. The new paper had a sub-title more like a
table of contents than anything else. It was first printed and
published for the proprietor by Joseph Desnoues, No. 6, Church

3 cols. to a page. For a few Nos. of the Ist vol. Hardcastle &
Van Pelt, No. 63, Pine-Street, printed the paper, but by No. 9,
it was back again in the hands of Joseph Desnoues, as printer,
then temporarily at No. 6I Church-Street, near Murray. ByFebr'y 8, I813, Desnoues returned permanently to No. 6 Church.l
St., where he had bought a printing office. By No. 33, April I2,
i813, O'Conor's name disappeared from its columns. Wall had
retired soon after the paper was started or before the date of
181 2.
"'O'Conor published in the JAonzlor, under date of May, I813,.

War' of I812-I5,... within the last ten years I have seenat least four copies of it. One of them is in my own collection..
It is a I2mo, of some 336 pp.,'fourth edition, revised and improved.' It is introduced by a wretched copper-plate'likeness' of Maj.-Gen. Andrew Jackson, and an unusually elaborates
title, beginning with' An Impartial and Correct History of theWar between the United States and Great Britain.' My copy
has this imprint:'New York: Printed and Published by John

is authentic.1 The Irish-American element is not treated with indifference. Many interesting documents are supplied.

and well known in the literary world by his publications concerning Ireland)." —'eraizger.
Next day, August 3, having first worked at their Sketches,
they set out on horseback with Mr. O'Conor and his son Denis.
At the time of Beranger's visit, the Belinagar family had not
adopted the title of Don, which was then used by the Clonalis
branch at the male head of the line.
Owen O'Conor, the eldest grandson of Charles, was the first
of the Belinagar branch who assumed the title of Don, or Dzzn,
on the death without issue of Alexander O'Conor, the last male
of the Castlerea branch. Owen was a most courteous, refined
gentleman, and immediately after the passing of the Relief Bill
was elected M. P. for Roscornmon-an honor which has since
descended to his son Denis J. O'Conor Don, and is now worn
by Charles, his grandson, the present esteemed O'Conor Don,
of Clonalis. The first named, Denis, had two other sons. Matthew, the second son, with whom  I had the honor of an intimate acquaintance, and who resided at Mont-Druid, was a distinguished lawyer, a man of great erudition, of refined tastes,
and an accomplished writer. The third son, Charles, was the
well-known author of the Reruzm Hibernicarum Scrz/tores.
Having been born in the locality, I am perhaps the last
writer who retains a personal recollection of three of the following lineal descendants of Cathal Crove-Dearig, one of the
last Kings of Connaught.
Daniel, one of the direct descendants of Sir Hugh of Ballin

tubber, was The O'Conor Dun.       He lived in great state
at Clonalis, near Castlerea, and died in I769.  He had three
sons, Dominick, Alexander, and Thomas, and two daughters,
Jane and Elizabeth.  The former married Mr. William Eccles,
a solicitor and a Protestant, and was never afterwards seen by'her father; my aunt, who died several years ago at a very advanced age, remembered having seen her coming in to "cry"
hler brother Dominick, when he was " laid out " in the barn at
Clonalis..    In the old house I remember seeing a
beautiful Spanish picture of the Madonna; a large gold snuffbox, representing on the lid the an.zitzig of CoLimzbuis ini America,
said to have been given by the King of Spain to one of the
O'Conor family; and the silver and jewelled hilted sword of
Count O'Reilly.
The second brother, Alexander O'Conor, had been many
years in Spain, but at the time of his brother Thomas's death
was living at a place called Creglahan, near Castlerea.  AIthough past seventy, he was usually called "Master Sandy,"
but was always recognized by the people as the true "King of
Connaught."  I knew him well, as he afterwards resided with a
relative of mine. He died at a great age, and is buried beside
my ancestors, the O'Flyns, in the old churchyard of Kilkeeven,
on the banks of the Suck, near Castlerea.
The Rev. Dr. Charles O'Conor (Columbanus), the celebrated
antiquary, was parish priest of Kilkeeven, where I was born,
and while there, it is said, collected all the Irish MSS. that
could be procured in the neighborhood, as well as those belonging to his relatives whom I have already mentioned, and which
he subsequently carried off to Stowe, when he became librarian
to the Duke of Buckingham.
Besides Denis, Charles-the friend of Beranger in I777-had
another son, Charles, of Mount Alien, grandfather of the present Charles O'Conor, of New York.

I, of course, submitted the foregoing to the Hon. Charles
O'Conor, who most courteously replied as follows:
"New York, April ioth, 1872.
"REVEREND DEAR SIR-I am very much rejoiced to learn
that your work is in course of publication.... I feel assured that the general interests of religion will be greatly promoted by it. It is not in vain that God endows the worker in
such a field with learning, talents, untiring industry, and ardent
zeal,
"A minor consideration, but I hope not an unbecoming one,
increases my pleasure at the event. You have spoken, kindly
I am sure, of my beloved, venerated, and sainted father.
" I return the memoranda concerning certain members of my
family in Ireland. It is entirely correct, I believe. I have
made very slight additions: they are not corrections of any
error, but simply elucidations. The propriety of publishing
any such private matters must be judged of by others. Charles,
of Mount Allen, with whom that narrative ends, emigrated with
his whole family.
"With great esteem, I remain,
"Rev. Dear Sir,
"Yours faithfully,
"CH. O'CONOR.

POTERIE, CLAUDE FLORENT BOUCHARD DE LA,
was the first Catholic priest who ministered in Boston.  A
Frenchman, and crafty, he imposed on Dr. Carroll, Superior of
the missions in the U. S., so far as to have himself appointed
Missionary to Boston, where he repaired toward the close of
1788. He was not fit for the position, for he had already been
suspended by the Archbishop of Paris. Shortly after his appointment to Boston he issued
A Pastoral Letter from the Afiostolz'c Vice-Prefect, Curate of the
Holy Cross at Bostonz:
Claudius Florent Bouchard de la Polerie, Doctor of Divinity,
Prothonotary of the Holy Church of the Holy See of Rome, Alostolic
Vice-Prefect and Missionary, Curate of the Catholic Church at Boston in North America, to all faithful Christians entrusted to ouer
care, and of our spiritual jurisdiction, salvation and blessizg inz
7esus Christ, the Shepherd of our Souls.
But letters from Paris tore the sheep's skin from the wolf's
back, and Poterie's ministrations came to a sorry and quick
end, on the 29th of May, I789, when he was suspended by Rev.
AV. O'Brien, of New York, sent by Dr. Carroll to examine into
the charges preferred against him. John Gilmary Shea supplies me with the following title of a work apparently by the
same La Poterie: (v. pp. v-vi.)

ROLLIN, CHARLES.
[In a deeply interesting paper in The New HainAshzire Gazette,
the oldest newspaper in America, communicated by Frank W.
Miller, E`sq., of Portsmouth, N. H., to the N. E. Hlislorical and
Genealogical Register, etc., Boston, I872, vol. xxvi., No. 2, we
are told that " the history of printing in Portsmouth is mainly
the record of newspapers and editors; although considerable
book-work was done at one time, about the close of the last centavry, including a heavy edition of Rollin's'Ancient History,'
etc." The Press made its appearance in Portsmouth, A.D. I756.
Charles Rollin was a Catholic, and a man of unimpeachable
character, but unfortunately a partisan of Paris, and it is feared
did not recant at his death, although it is generally admitted
that his error was only of the mind and never violated the laws
of charity or reverence to ecclesiastical authority, even in defence of Jansenistical principles. v. Chateaubriand, Genie cd

[W. S., Esq., one of the counsel in the case, was a Protestant.
The App'x on Confession is from the pen of Rev. A. Kohlman,
S.J.  Mr. Wharton, v. szuqra Carroll & Wharton, replied to it,
and yet he heard the confession of a dying woman, apostate and
married priest as he was. Reference to this work is made in
B. Q. R., A. II., July, I846.-James Vaniere, S.J., born in Causses, diocese of Bezieres, A.D. 1664, d. in Tolose in I739. He was
a very elegant Latin poet. The Georgical Poem, PraedizUn   Rusiczum, in I6 cantos, from which the above is taken, has secured
to Fr. V. an undying admiration in the world of belles-lettres.
Two interesting allusions to Fr. Vaniere will be found in Vol. iii.,
No. I and 2 (June and July, I870) of The Ninzeteenth Century,
Charleston, S. C. For a notice of the distinguished Irish Catholic lawyer and poet, A. Murphy (I730-I805) see Allibone, ad
no0nZen.
After the trial it was made a law in New York that a priest
cannot be required to give as evidence in court what he has heard
in the Confessional. Yet like attempts have been made elsewhere, as, eg., in the case of the Rev. Mr. Hickey of Baltimore; v. Bost. Ca/h. Observer, Nov. 30, I847; in that of Rev. Mr.
Teeling of Richmond; v. Melroholitan, iii., p. 709, and The

[In the pref. to the Monitor Mr. T. promises a N. Y. edition
of the Douay Bible, but it was not published, as far as I know.
Mr. Taylor afterwards removed to Boston in the spring of I82I.
He was a very eloquent man and a good controversialist, as I
judge from his correspondence with the Hon. H. B. C. Green,
M.D. (whom he baptized Nov., 1824), a copy of which I possess
through the kindness of Mrs. Dr. Leprohon (Dr. Green's daughter), of Portland, Me. Bp. Cheverus is said to have entertained
the project of nominating Mr. T. for his coadjutor. From an
autograph letter of Dr. Cheverus before me, dated Mo;lZauCbanz,
APril IO, i826, I clip the following: "You know that our




240   Bibliograpzhia Ca/zolica Americana.
friend Mr. Taylor did not bring your esteemed favor of December 9th, but he forwarded it..  I wish myself that our
dear Mr. Taylor would have remained some time with him (Bp.
Fenwick).... By Mr. Taylor's letters I expect him soon.
I shall do my best to make him comfortable and happy, but
here his preaching will lose much of its charms. I have explained to him what he may expect, so that he may be enabled
to determine what is best for him. As for me I shall be happy
to welcome him, and his constant attentions to yourself
and family since my departure have endeared him  more
and more to me....  To Mr. Walley, Brooklzie."'-When
Bishop Cheverus left Boston, September, I825, Mr. Taylor remained Administrator of the Diocese until the Sunday after
December 3, I825, when Bishop Fenwick arrived and took
possession, on which occasion Mr. T. delivered a very interesting sermon, giving an account of the state of the diocese, but
at its conclusion he announced that he would sail for Europe.
The following Sunday Rev. Mr. Taylor left Boston for New
York, where he sojourned for a while, but finally sailed
for France, and, fixing himself at Bordeaux, was made honorary canon by his friend Archbp. Cheverus. When the Archbishop, who had been raised to the peerage, went to Paris, Rev.
Mr. Taylor accompanied him. He was there taken sick and
died in the Irish College, in August, I828. Mr. Taylor's name
appears among the -subscribers to M. Carey's Essays, I822.Cfr. History of the Catl. Chkurch in the U. S. Courcy & Shea. p.

[To a public invitation, rather a challenge to debate, given
by Mr. Thayer, on his return from Europe (Nov. 24, 1790), where
he had become a Catholic, the following acceptance was returned: "As the gauntlet is thrown down by Mr. Thayer, it is
taken up by George Leslie."  The controversy between Mr. Th.
and Mr. L. began in a public paper, Oct. 5, I793; in this copy it
ends at p. 74. Then follow some desultory pieces, rather small
Tracts by Mr. Thayer, with Rejoinders by others, i.e., A Szincere
and UnbiassedReader of thae Holy Bible-A4 Searcher after Truth —
Sz;ilzfexr-AnIzswer-Barebotnes-etc., etc., etc., whom  Father
Thayer keeps all at bay like a noble stag attacked by hounds.
One John Gardner, a celebrated lawyer and a great speaker in
the House of Representatives, enters the lists repeatedly, but
at p. Ii5 we find the following: "Mr. Gardner disbelieves all
miracles. But is there not something miraculous in his being
struck with the palsy, in his right hand, at the very time he
was writing all his blasphemies against God and his saints?
(This is a positive fact.) If he will believe, perhaps he may be
made whole."  The remaining pieces, partly Catholic and
partly Protestant, are most interesting.  A4r. Thayer d. in

Whilst tarrying in Paris, before his way back to the U. S., Mr.

Times!) to secure prayers for the conversion of America. The
hon. Fr. Spencer took the hint from him, many years after, and
both learned the practice from Holy Writ. The prayer for the
Knowledge of the True Faith ascribed in the GoldenZ Manual, p.

WHITE, CALVIN.
[I am indebted to the courtesy of Richard Grant White, the
distinguishled writer, for the following only too brief notice:
"DEAR SIR:..  Calvin White was my grandfather. He
became a Roman Catholic; but although he was an accomplished scholar, and a writer of clearness and force, he published no
books that I heard of: nothing more than sermons, if that, and
certainly nothing after he left the Prot. Episcopal Church,
which, if I remember rightly what I have been told, was about
I8I8. I saw in my college days a manuscript of his, in which he
set forth the steps by which he went from the Church of England to that of Rome; and it seems to me that, granting his
premises, his conclusions could not be denied. This book is
unfortunately lost.  You will find something about him in
Sabine's "Loyalists of the Revolution"; for, although a
mere boy then, he was a stout Tory. His was a perfectly pure,
honest, and kindly heart. He had both dignity and humor, and
was the courtliest gentleman I ever saw, although he was only
the parson of a country parish, and had but a small farm besides
his little salary..
"I am, Rev'd Sir, yours very respectfully,'' RICH'D GRANT WHITE."
I have given this letter to settle the question as to Rev. Mr.
White's claim to be reckoned among Catholic writers previous
to I82o, as some of my respected correspondents have insisted

"Born in New Orleans, Oct. 31, 1736, d. in the College of
Juilly, in France, Dec. I6, 182I. He resided many years in Attapacas. He translated Fenelon's Telemaczs in Latin verse, and
in 3i8i6 he published the M1iscelZanea Latino-Gallica, also a

FAGAN.- Since part of the work was in the printer's
hand, I have become indebted to Mr. G. R. Fagan, of J. Fagan
& Son, Stereotype Founders, Philadelphia, for the following
items: " My father's grandfather, a Catholic, Was Capt. John
Walsh, of Dublin, who came to Philadelphia about I75o, and
settled here.  He commanded one of the ships of the Hon.
Thomas Fitzsimmons, a Catholic of this city, who afterwards became a member of the U. S. House of Representatives. During
the revolution Capt. Walsh commanded a Letter of Marque sailing from this port, called'The Black Prince," and made a number of captures of British merchantmen. His only daughter married John Fagan (my father's father). He was the builder of the
old church of St. Augustine, in this city, destroyed by a mob in
I844."
To this valuable information, I anm happy to add some interesting items more closely connected with the name of Augustine
Fagan, furnished me by Mr. John Fagan, senior partner of the
firm above alluded to  ".... Nearly 6o years ago I went
as a store-boy to attend in the book-store of Augustine Fagan,




AA5eszdsix.                    267
i33 South Front Street, in this city.  I was no relative.
I was with him four years, partly in his store, and some time setting up type in his composing-room above. I remember well the
Catholic books you have specified, also Tile Key to Ptzuadise, and
Afilners End to Con-oversy... After continuing in Front
Street, up to I8I7, Mr. Fagan gave up the printing business and
turned grocer.  I left him...   I think he died in I823
or'24. He was a Catholic, and a'prominent Trustee in St. Mary's
Church at the time of the Harold [Hogan] controversy.
Fagan and his co-trustees sided with the rebelling clergyman, and
he it was who wrote their circular and pamphlets [not all], for he
was a man of literary ability. I suppose he came young from
Ireland, perhaps in 1803 or'4, for I think he learned the business
here.
" I merely remember that two or three of those books were
issued by Mr. Dougherty.            I cannot recall whether
he had a store or not, and suppose he did nothing further in that
way...    When I finished my printing education, it may
interest you to know that I became compositor, proof-reader,
and, finally, proprietor of the Stereotype Foundry, established
here by J. Howe in I823...
The above is a pretty interesting record by a gentleman writing
in 187I, Sept. 26, and was an apprentice boy sixty years ago, one
who says, "I retired from business eight years ago, relinquishing
it to my son Geo. R. Fagan." Oh! for the old gentlemen of the
olden style!

WHITE, ANDREW, of the Society of Jesus, came to America with Leonard Calvert, second son of Lord George

My copy bears corrections at the hand of Mr. Brantz Meyer.
I had made arrangements to have a facsimile of the original
taken in Rome: but the fear of the troubles which have since
taken place forced the owners of the MS. to bury it with their
archives,  Part of Fr. White's Relation has been embodied in
Burnap's Lzfe of Calvert.  A good Memoir of Fr. White, by
Richard H. Clarke, will be found, with a note of several references, in the Baltimore fMetropolitan, iv. p. 73. v. also Balf. Cath.
Almanac, I840,'4I.
It was my intention to give in an appendix a List of Titles,
like the above, of old writers, chiefly missionaries, whose works
have either been published lately, or republished; but my list
lacks yet half a score titles: Yet I thought to give Fr. White's,
as a sample of a feature of the second part of the Bibliography.

MATHEW CAREY
is a household name in the United States as a printer, a bookseller, a poet, a writer, a publicist, an editor, a plhilanthropist,




Apyenzd'ix,                      269
and a patriot.  I do not purpose to give an extensive biography
of him.  I limit myself to a catalogue of his works as far as I
have been able to ascertain their titles.
But it is high time that a society were established of such Catholics as take an interest in our Catholic history, and lhave an inclination for such pursuits, and a regular biographical series of
American Catholic writers and men of note, clergy and laity, in
a uniform style, was undertaken. The extensive Catholic library
of the writer would be at their disposal, and with such men as
J. G. Shea, E. B. O'Callaghan, R. IfH. Clarke, and others, whom
I know to be eminently qualified for the purpose, although
leading secluded lives in colleges and convents, a work of intense
interest could be produced.  And it will not only preserve the
monuments of Catholic history in the United States, but it would
shed much light even on the secular history.  For it is a fact
that no justice lias yet been done to the Catholic literary, political, and religious elements in the history of our beloved country.
And in connection with this, I would suggest that an " American
Catholic Historical Society " should be established in some city,
with a library and proper officers.  Non-Catholic denominations
have such institutions, and they are earnestly encouraged.
As for Mathew Carey's history, he was born in Dublin, Ireland, January 28, I760o, died in Philadelphia September i6, I839.
His last moments were attended by his intimate friend, the Very
IRev. Dr. Moriarty, O.S.A., and the Rt. Rev. Dr. Gartland. His
father, a wealthy baker, was opposed to Mathew becoming a
printer (the great mistake of parents interfering with their sons'
honorable inclinations), yet he yielded, and Mathew entered a
printing office at the age of fifteen. For A Letter to /e Cat/iolics
in Ireland he was persecuted, and fled to Paris, where he was
befriended by Dr. Franklin.  He returned after one year,: and




270    Bibliograchia Catholict     A mericana.
conducted the Fyemelzan's Yozrnza. In October, 1783, with his
father's aid, he started the VoluZceers yz0urnna with great success,
but by his bold writings he drew upon himself the persecution of
the government, and, after enduring imprisonment and many
vexations, he at last fled, in female disguise, and landed at Philadelphia November I, 1784. In I785, January 25, he started
the Pennsylvania Herald with much success, but it involved him
in a difficulty with Colonel Oswald (not Osborn, as Ay5pletol's
Cyclcjdia has it). They fought a duel January I, I786, and
became good friends. The occasion of this duel is interesting.
Oswald may be considered the first Kiozw-Not/ziig in America.
Being shot through the thigh bone, Carey was laid up for about
fourteen months.
In I79I, M. C. married Miss B. Flahavan. He was on the
Committee of Health during the prevalence of the yellow fever in
1793. In the same year he founded the Hibernian Society in
behalf of Irish emigrants; he took part in forming the SundaySchool Society in the United States in aid of Bishop White; he
came in collision with the famous hybrid, William Cobbett, but
conquered him; he promoted the Printers' Association under the
presidency of the veteran Hugh Gaine, the meeting for its foundation took place in New York, the association lasted but a few
years, and the trade sales afterwards took its place.
In i8o6, a member of the Select Council of Philadelpliia, he
published a pamphlet in favor of subjecting personal property to
taxation as well as real estate. From I819 to 1833 he published
no less than fifiy-nine separate pamphlets on the subject of the
protective tariff alone, and some passed through many editions.
It is well-nigh animpossibility to give a list of all Carey has published.
Sam. Drake, Esq., has told me that a gentleman wrote to /M.




Abpecn diz.                    2 7 I
C., asking for a list of the titles of his pamphlets, at the same
time sending him the list he had already made. Carey answered,
with a list of additional titles, remarking at the same time that
in his correspondent's list there were titles of pamphlets which he
had entirely forgotten! And yet he always wrote in a cogent,
clear style; his mind was encyclopadic; he was endowed with a
wonderful power of grasping subjects, and an extraordinary logical mind.
Mr. Joseph Reed, son of President Reed, said of him: "Mr.
Carey, a, man to whom we are all a great deal more indebted
than we are aware of, and who is entitled to respect and regard
for the generosity of his nature, the extent and variety of his
knowledge, and his devoted and disinterested exertions in the
public service. He has given more time, money, and labor to
the public than any man I am acquainted with, and, in truth, he
founded in Philadelphia a school of public spirit. This is bare
justice to an excellent citizen."
He was upright, sincere, and charitable. This much for his
private character: " For a long series of years he had a charity
list," writes Mr. Hunt, "on which were enrolled the names of
hundreds to whom he regularly gave, once each fortnight, a donation of groceries and other necessaries of life."
He was indefatigable, for with him time was not money, but
nlerit.
At the College. of Holy Cross, near Worcester, Mass., is preserved an autograph letter of George Washington to Mathew
Carey. It was found in Paris by the lamented Rev. George
Goodwin, and by him presented to the College. The copy which
I here transcribe was kindly furnished nme by the Rev. Alexius.

"MOUNT VERNON, X5th Mar., I785.
"SIR: I purposed so soon as I understood you intended to
become the publisher of a News Paper in Philadelphia to request
that a copy of your weekly production might be sent to me.-I
was the more pleased with this determination when by a letter
by my friend the Marquis de la Fayette. I found he has interested
himself in your behalf.
" It has so happened, that my Gazettes from  Philadelphia,
whether from inattention at the Printing or Post offices, or other
causes, come very irregularly to my hands.  Let me pray you
therefore to address those you send me, in the appearance of a
letter.-The common paper, usually applied, will do equally well
for the cover. —It has sometimes occurred to me, that there are
persons who, wishing to read News Papers without being at the
expense of paying for them, make free with those which are sent
to others; under the garb of a letter it is not presumreable this
liberty would be taken.

The interesting history of this splendid satire can be summed
up by a few paragraphs from the preface: "Our disputes originated from  some illiberal remarks written in his paper [the
Gazetteer, No. 2 I8] against new-comers. As a new-comer, I thought
myself called upon to answer them, which I did in Nov. 9, I785,
under the signature of A CITIZEN OF THE WORLD." The preface
plainly hints also at the probability of a personal encounter

Says an industrious biographer: "In i817, the agitation of
Catholic emancipation in Ireland urged Carey to the prosecution
of a design which he had long had in contemplation.  He was
still further excited by the publication of William Godwin's novel
ofJlazndeville ( MAzndeville.. a Tale of tlhe i7th Centzity. Edinburgh. I8I7. 3 vols. I2mo), presenting in powerful [exaggerated] colors a view which Carey considered unjust of the Irish
insurrection of i641. In consequence of this he set to work to
prepare an account of his native country which should expose the
errors and misstatements of English historians.  He made a large
collection of materials, and planned his work with great deliberation, but sent his manuscript, as fast as each day's work was completed, to the printer, so that it was in type almost as soon as
written. It appeared under the title of Vindicie Hiberniicr in I8 18
(I8I9?), with such success that four editions were called for."

of the subject, the desire of doing good, or the hope of making
profit, feel disposed to republish it, he has not only permission,
but is invited to carry his views into operation. The writer requests, however, to be consulted, and have two weeks frornt this

have read this pamphlet througl1, and whatever theory mayibe
adopted, it seems to me that the well-known principles of human
nature will be its soundest basis.  Facts here quoted are far from
sufficient to prove the great superiority of modern improvement
in prison discipline.  It seems to me that the fear of punishment is the strongest restraint on the depraved; and this barrier

will be entirely broken down if prisons be changed from places
of punishment to houses of correction, where the wolf and the
tiger, after having preyed upon humanity, are to be wheedled
out of their ferocity and soothed into kindness by the influence
of an ill-timed, sickly affectation of humanity. The difference
of punishment between murder and robbery has saved many a
life, when otherwise the life and purse would be taken together."

CAREY, James, " was a brother of Mathew (one t, if you please
— so his descendants demand), and should have been, if he were
not, a Catholic. In my notes for Mathew Carey's biography I
have a mass of unpublished matter about him and his family.
Another brother of M. C. was
JOHN, who edited in London the official Letters of Washington, 2 vols. 8vo, I795-the Ist ed. ever published. He edited
also many classical works for London publishers, including
Ainsworth's Quarto Latin Dictionary."  Laffan: M. H.
Peter Pennyless, a Fragment, by J. C., was published in tile

Henry C. Carey, Esq., so well known for his works on social
science, of American economists fncile prizceps, in a very courteous letter (Feb. 25, i867) writes: "My uncle John was great
as an editor, but not at all known as an author, and in his day
the tendency here to classical republications was very small indeed [his illustrious brother did create a tende'ncy].... He

woman, although known only as the author of a condensation of

volumes..            Of many of my father's works I have
no copy...    My uncle John was never in this country.
My uncle William was here for about a year.]
CAREY, WV. Paulett, " I768-IS39, brother of John and Mathew
C., took part in the struggle of I798, and, subsequently removing
to England, distinguished himself as an eloquent advocate of art,
artists, and political reform, and as the author of many critical
contributions to the periodicals of the day. Among those in.Vwhlose behalf his pen was early enlisted may be mentioned Chartrey, Hogan, Gibson, and James Montgomery."  Allibone.  At

ADDENDA ET FRAGMENTA.
nWHILST the work was in press, and chance there was not to
alter the forms, I came across items, whereof some were titles in,
full, some only fragmentary hints, and again some complements
of titles already given in corpore.  I give them here, and I know
that this little gathering of f~emos will be acceptable to the Bibliophilos.
ARISPE, D. MIGUEL RAMOS DEIn IS84 (Philadelphia?), I am told, was published a translation
of the following Spanish work on Mexico:

hence I give the title of the original Spanish, of which I lately
came in possession.

Holly was in the Diocese of Philadelphia."  v. f:oud.et, p. I74..




And now I lay down my pen. The rackl on which my mind
has been since I issued the circular (July 3I, I87I!) can be imagined only by inspecting the heap of letters received-some encouraging, others discouraging-some even charging me with
treading on the corns of the writers who "had intended," and
actually " planned," vaye, —had'" collected materials," etc., etc.




I PARVE LIBER.
PLEASE, kind readers, brothers, bookworms, and all of
that ilk, send me corrections, and castigations, that I may
publish them all (with proper acknowledgments) in the Second
Part, so continuously paged in Arabic numbers as to make them
of easy binding with this volume.
The Lord help us! but by-and-by we shall yet get a (sublunary) perfect Bibliography that will stand a monument to the
fact that no other converted nation can. exhibit such a noble
record of earnest endeavors to publish works calculated to create
a healthy Christian spirit. The Catholic literature in the United
States previous to I820, scanty as it may appear, must be allowed
to have been in advance of the money-making, sickly, riding-onboth-sides-of-the-fence efforts of more recent dates.  Mathew
Carey was wrong in publishing all kinds of works-albeit, there
are allowances to be made in his favor; and it would be unjust
to look upon him as the prototype of wishy-washy modern Catholic publishers or book-sellers.  Bernzard Dornin was the prototype of the true and honest Catholic publisher.  Had,Dornin
lived hisce emnkoribuzs, he'd die of starvation-he was too honest.
The reader is at perfect liberty to agree or not to agree with
these remarks. Yet
"To be or not to be; that's the question,"
AND,
FIVNIS COR ON4  OPUS /
