bishop of ST. Louis, native OF Ireland. He is
brother of the Bishop of Philadelphia. He does
not possess either the talent or learning Of his

the editors of the - United States Catholic Maga-
Zlne,' and author of many able reviews which
appeared in that work. His review of D'Au-
bigne S Histsry of the Reformation" published
tour or live years ago, stamps him man of great
Industry, sound Judgment. powerful argument. and
of varied and extensive requirements. His styIe
is clear and concise. We look upon him as Sc
cond only to Bishop Kenrick in the American
hierarchy. He is always ready and able to de-
