BurraLo, N. Y., Nov. 7.-Rev. J. J. Brady, late pastor of St. James's Catholic church, Waverly, has been assigned to the parish of East Arcado, Wyoming county, N. Y., and left Wednesday morning to enter, upon his new field of Iabors. That Father Brady has been maligned and calumniated thefe is no doubt, him, Bishop, Ryan did not take into considetation the vile and infamous charges made byithe Cain blackmailers. - 'The fact that Father Brady has been assigned to a larger and more {mportant parish than Wayerly is proof positivelof the bishop's firm belief in his innocence. | The Trrrorax, true to the policy which it éarnostly advocates, has taken a stand in this matter which has met with the bearty approval of all regardless of race or creed. The vindication of Father Brady is due solely to the Tepsorarx; whose energy and zeal in securing the affidavits of respectable Elmira citizens, in which the notorious Cains were shown up in their true colors, has, we aro gratified to know, been highly appreciated. Reports have reached the TrrEomax during the past few weeks of numer- ous other towns in which «the Cains have plied their nefarious avoecntions and it will not be difficult for our readers to arrive at a conclusion as to their true dharacter. The parishiners of St. James's churgh, Waverly, in- cluding those who cannot cigim to be \pio- neers,\ appenr to have noue but the kindliest feelings towards their late pastor, and he leaves them with their best wishes for his fu- ture welfare. Rev. Edward. McShane, the newly sppointed pastor for Waverly, arrived here Thursday, and will officiate to-day for the frst time. Father McShane comes: from East Arcade, and {s one of the mjast learng& and prominent of the dioscesan''clergy. He has been pastor at East Arcade for over nine years, and comes to Waverly in hopes that the change may bo beneficial to his health, whick is not over robust. } \A Rag Baby.\ The something entitled \ A Rag Baby\ was well attended at the opera, house Thursday evening.
