SACERDOTAL CELIBACY. Th# Conflict of the Church and Hu-

man Nature

Mr. Henry Charles Lea, who has been summering at Cape May many years, and who resides at seaside home si No. 8 Grant street. author, strinny other literary productions, of "History of Bacredo lal Celibacy In the Christian Church.' which has been revised In a third edition, and has been publlaUed in two volumes, of 483 and 412 pages, by The Macmillan Co, of New York The forty years which have sped since Mr. Lea am gave the world his study of sscredotal celibacy have served only to establish more firmly the worth of this scholarly Investigation. When the first edition appears toward the dote of the Civil War,the small audience welcoming It was not wholly prepared tor the calm statements of facts which, without tha aid of controversy or partisanship, criticised unsparingly the Roman Church. In those days It was still counted s virtue to deal gingerly with e celestas Ucal history. The third edition goes to a large circle of readers to whom this Insincerity is strange and repellent. For this change In the spirit of historical research the book is Itself In no scant measure responstand U It meets with the approve ‘of those who deem that the life of nations does not consist exclusively of political revolutions snd military achievements," Mr. Lea will only ■me to his own. The topic of these two weighty volumes may still appear to some per sons one which only a scandalmonger a frivolous curiosity hunter would choose. Mr. Lea's apology for his the however, errs on the side of caution when, after noting that "the Latin Church Is the great fact which dominates the history of modern civilization," It continues. ras by no means the least of the factors In the conquering career of the church that It repulred of all to whom it granted the supernatural powers conferred In holy orders that they should currender themselves to It unreservedly and Irrevocably, that should have no aspirations beyond its service, no family affections to distract their loyalty, no family dalles which to waste Its substance, and no ambitions save for the rewards which It alone could bestow. The historian's minute account of Christian celibacy will tempt many to pronounce this Institution the meet Important of all whish have grown op In the church since the days of Paul. Unlike doctrine and ritual, the practice and enforcement of sacerdotal celibacy directly affecte the morals, health, sanity and even the material prosperity of Europeans tor centuries. The extent at this Influence cannot be Imagined; It must be learned from the chronicles whlc Mr. Lea abundantly quotes. These tel sickening story or Licentiousness and corruption whose softest word ill bears repeating save tor the sake of teaching the fearful dangers of bracing a philosophy which Gouts nature. The last touch of tragedy Is added to the dark chapter by Mr. Introductory account of the origins snd motive of the blighting institution . As an expression of early Christian revolt against pagan vice, celibacy deserves praise. The writer shrewdly observes that "dvlHxatlon owes too mnch to the reform which Christianity rendered possible In the relations of the sexes tor ns to condemn too severely even the extrmvInto which It was betrayed." This charitable be construed es referring Ideals actuating celibacy rather than any. actual reforms consummated by the Church's decrees regulating priestly marriages. Mr. Lea has treated his subject exhaustively snd with admirable tact. Beglnlng with the rise of celibacy out of the great enthusiasm for the retie life which was stirred up Buddhistic, Greek and Pauline Influences, he traces its spread end mgaIfold developments from age to age down to tha present time. Thanks tree snd copious litter si ure on this subject written by ecclesiastics and laymen of every age and country, he resorts to oonjectnral Interpre The thoroughness of his researches, reflected In extensive foot-

hls rare personal Interjections add a certain authority to his concluding op]. Inlona shoot tha rale of celibacy modem times. These opinions, added to the second volume after a lifetime’ study of the Roman Church,may welcome to Influence progressive Catho-

lics in our own country.
