(From our own correspondent.) July 25. At the weekly meeting of the Catholic Club on Tuesday, 19th inst., the Rev. Father Kavanagh read a most instructive and interesting article on the fall of Catholicity in England. The various causes that led to the so-called Reformation were fully dealt with, and the subsequent and continuing progress of the Church in England was referred to. The Very Rev. Dean Burke, at the request of members, explained the arguments of Evolutionists with regard to the ‘missing link,’ and also gave very lucidly ‘the other side of the story.’ - V
