Archbishop Bruchesi Says That the Roman Catholic Church Must Direct Everything That Concerns Validity of Marriage. Montreal, Feb. 25. Archbishop Bruchesi, who pronounced the ex- clesoastical decree later given civil ef: {tect by Justice Laurendeau annulling the Hebert marriage, and bringing to 'a head the ne temere agitation, prgached to-day 'on the subject of marriage as viewed by the Roman Ca- tholie church, Great interest was-tak- en in the event owing to the recent decigion of Justice Charbonneau, de claring the Hebert marriage valid in the eyes of the civil law. His grace said in part : "The agita- tion carried on from one end of our country to the other, the more oc less violent articles appearing in several Protestant newspapers against the wise and beneficent yet evidently ill understood legislation of the Catholic church, and the deductions gathered from a recent judgment of the civil courts impose upon me the duty to raise my voice, pot for the purpose of trying to interpret the text of human laws, but in order to solemnly affirm the ever-immudable principles of our touching the august sacrament di- {of marriage, as well as the sacred leg- rector, who spared po pains to make islation of the church, which neither | jurists' theses nor the findings of civil f tribunals can ever abrogate or modify. "Have we ever seen a Catholic priest calebrate the marriage of two persons belonging to other than the Roman {Catholic faith ? No, indeed. If Pro- {testant ministers had acted in this {manner, and if they had declined to [celebrate the marriage of imprudent jond guilty Catholics upon the simple presentation of a civil permit, with lot making inquiries as to age and other eonditions, wa would never have thad to deplore thege scandals which so greatly {rouble gur society. "If governments make laws for the valid and legitimate celebration of marriage, and if these laws contradict those of the church, the latter can in no way be affected, for the reason {that the faithful and all those to iwhom the laws of the church apply, unless they want His grace then quoted the Ne Te mere decree, and proceeded : "So here lis this Ne Temere decree with which a John Peat, collector of enstoms, at scare has been created throughout the land, and which they represent as an missal, to-day. attempt to destroy the peace of fami- lies and the liberty of conscience. Marriage celebrated outside these- es- sential conditions, the conditions men- tioned in the decree, is consequently null by the fact both as regards con- science and religion, It is a very easy thing, however, to render such a union. valid, as they have only to present themselves before a competent minister, Should they, however, re- fuse, the case is submitted to the or- dinary of the diocese. The latter has but one sentence to render, and that is to declare the marriage iavalid ac- cording to the canon law. "Marriage, . like all other saera ments, belongs to the church, and eon sequently it pelongs to the church to direct everything that concerns the validity of marriage. Such was the doetrine of the Catholic church before the Protestant reformation, and such will it be in all time. If, however, our separated, brethren have rejected it, if they have made marriage a simple contract, submitted like all others to the civil power, which may be dis solved or governed at its will, let them at least allow us to remain faithful to our secular traditions, and in the name of that liberty which they elajm for themselves let them permit us to act according to the convictions of our faith. "Whatever happens, the holy laws of the church ou the marriage ques- tion will always continue to bind the conscience of its children, and those alone in the eves of the church will be warthy of the title of husband and wile who will have coitracted a mar- riage according to her forms and rul ings."
