Prrrsuono, August 8.-To-day was a red-letter day in the-history of the Randall Club of Pittsburg and the Democracy of dllegheny county. The fete champetre at 911yer Lake Grove was without doubt the tlneet effair of the kind ever given by any' political organization in this county and was completely successful in every particu lar. Fully 0,000 people participated. At i o'clock the distinguished guests of the Dccasion, Samuel J. Randall, Ex-Lieutenant. Uovcrnor Chauncoy F. Black, State Chair man Dallas Banders and Chief Pension Clerk Murphy, arrived in carriages draw ii by four white plumed horses and escorted by the Randall Club and the Cathedral Baud. They were escorted, shaking hands as they went, to the platform of the grand pavilion. The crowd followed and called for an address, but in this they were lisap pointed, as the committee had decided that it was to be a strictly social altair, and no spech-maki:.g would be indulged in. The guests, however, held a sort of inforfnal levee on the platform, receiving and shaking hands with the crowd, which pressed about them eagyr for that honor. At five o'elock the entire party was grouped on the plit form and photographed, after which they sat down to a magniticent repast. In the evening the time was spent in dRucing. Mr. Randall, with Mrs. Annie Foley, of this city, led the grand march, in which there were 163 couples. L-iter he danced a quadrille, hi wing the same lady for a partner. lie stated that he had not danced for twentty-ive years, lint he had no trouble in getting through the fig ures of the dance. The balnce of the evening was devoted to social intercourse entirely, and after a fine display of fire works the party returned to the city. Letters of regret were read from Presi dent Cleveland, Ex-Governor I'attison, Governor Hill and over one hundred other prominent )cmocrats. Mr. Riandall will leave for a trip up the Monongahela to morrow, as the guest of Captain O'Ncil. The boat will go up to the headwaters ani vili return on Friday. The "Curse or Exeonmuniention." We notice that the excoumuinication of I)r. McGlynn has induced some of out- en terprising contemporaries to republislh the form of excommunication which is to be found in Ste. ne's veracious history of "'T'ris tan Shandy." 'l'his document has appent ed on more than one occasion, and its publica tion as the genuine form used by the Church has always been promptly refuted. Never theless, some secular papers have repeated it at this time, .wg,.eting, either through ignorance or malice, t t atihufe it to its true source. It was wideiy punblislhd about the time of Victor Emmnanui. 's excomtuni cation, and his Eminence Cardinal (ihbons refers to it in his book, "'The Faith of ( )ur Fathers," in these terms: TIe 'curse'' is at tributed to the holy Father, and is fuli-i nated against Victor Emmanuel. In tlis anathema ''cursing'' and "damling" ai a heaped up in wild confusion. W\'hen this base forgery appeared, an article exposing the falsehood of the production was pub lished. We fear, however, that ninny read the slarIerous charge who diid not read its refutation. As to this "ctu se" against Vic tor Emmanuel, so calumnniously attributcd to the Pope, I state here distinct ly and pos itively that its authc r is not Pius l X, nor any loman Pontilt, nor any Catholie p:i et or layman. It is to Rev. Laurence Sterne, minister of the Established Church of Eg land, andl to his romance of ' '''ristam Shan dy" that the English spe. -ng world is in debted for this infanmo'us compilation.
