: ORDER OF PAssIoNIsTs.-During the ca
nonization of Saints, in Rome, on the Sec
ond day of the grand convocation of Cath
olic dignitaries in the Eternal City, we
learn that st. Leonard, of Porto Maurizio,
Santa Germana Cousin, Sta. Maria Fran
cerca, of Naples, and st. Paul of the Cross,
complete the list and command more
Catholic respect, their titles to the honor
now bestowed upon them being derived
from lives of piety, self-sacrifice and char
ity, rather than from their militant merits.
The last named, st. Paul of the Gross, in
particular, seems to have been person of
the original apostolic type, and is known
as the founder of the congregation of the
Passionists who now occupy at Rome that
beautiful old convent OF the palm tree, on
the Celian hill, which all travellers of an
artistic turn of mind must remember with
such particular interest and pleasure."-
Some years since, the then Catholic Bishop
of the Pittsburgh diocese, (M. O'Connor),
conveyed from Rome to that city, a limited
number of the Passionist Order, from
which has grown a rich and influential re-
ligious and scholastic institution, owning
valuable lands and commodious buildings
on the summit of the hill overlooking Bir-
mingham. Whatever may be thought of
the doctrines they teach or the peculiar
mode and manner of their lives, no one
can deny to them large share of learning,
zeal and genuine piety.
| ATTEMPTED RoBBERY.-On Thursday
night, between II and II o'clock, as George
Quinn, an employe of this office, was going
home on East Broad street, and near the
Lunatic Asyh0m, he was stopped by man
who asked the hour and demanded fifty
cents. AAGeorge is not in the habit of is
suing stamps on such demands, he informed
the fellow that he was out of money. The
demand was repeated three or four times,
and an attempt made to intimidate by
shaking a pair of brass knuckles under
Georges nose. He didn't scare worth a
cent. He clinched his adversary, and q
right smart brush they had of it, until they
i fell, the ruff1an undermost. In this situa-
ton he searched Georges pockets and stole
his account book. AS the rascal reached
for the book Quinn broke loose, and, after
giving his PROSTATE foe kick or two on
the head, concluded that he wasn't wanted
in that neighborhood any longer, and he
made lively time hOmeWard not knowing
