DR. BROWNRIGG’S COUNSEL.
In the course of a letter from the Most Rev. Dr. Brownrigg, Bishop of Ossory, read in all the churches of ' Kilkenny on a recent Sunday, his Lordship said that many provocations will doubtless be. given under the galling yoke of martial law. He counselled -the people to exercise self-control, patience, and forbearance. We trust (comments the Irish Catholic) that the wise words of the Bishop of Ossory will be hearkened to outside- as well as within his diocese. Let our people remember that if they do not, they will, besides breaking the laws of God, but play the 1 game the enemy wants them to' play—the game in which he knows he has the brute force, but that alone, to- beat mem. Let them remember that one live ; Irishman can give Ireland’s enemies more trouble than a: dozen dead ones.
