ST. FRANCIS BORGIA.

| Francis Borgis, Dlke of Gambia and
| Captain general of Catalonia, was ono OF
the handsomest, richest and most honored
mobiles in Spain, when in 1889, there was
laid upon him the sad duty of escorting the
remains of his sovereign, Queen Isabella,
to the royal burial-place at Grenada. The
coffin had to be opened for him that he
might verify the body before it was placed
in the tomb, aud 80 foul sight met his
eyes that he vowed never again to serve a
sovereign who could suffer so base a
change. It was some years before he
could follow the call of his Lord at length
when his wife was dead and his children
settled, he gave up all and where he had
ruled as viceroy he went about in an old
tattered habit, preaching Christ crucified
to the poor peasants. He had entered the
Society of Jesus to cnt himself off from any
chance of dignity or preferment. But his
Order chose him to be it's head. Francis
only abased himself the more, and an ever
growing sense of his sins, though his life
had always seemed 80 stainless, made him
feel the lowest of all. The Turks were
threatening Christendom, and st. Plus V.
sent his nephew to gather Christian princes
into q league for its defence. The holy
Pope chose Francis to accompany him,
and, worn out though -he-was,- the Saint
obeyed at once. The fatigues of the en-
bassy exhausted what little life was left.
st. Francis died on his return to Rome,
October l0:h, 1872
A Spanish nohleman said once to the
Saint, How can you bear the fatigues and
hardships of your journeys, made as they
are in such utter poverty Z" "There is
nothing to be surprised at. We do not
travel so unprovided as you imagine.
always send some one on before to see to
lodgings and whatever else we require"
The gentleman was rather puzzled. "Sir,"
st. Francis added, "the knowledge of my
self and the account of my dement's, which
had justly deserved the flames of hell, are
my outriders and foragers."

ST. EDWARD THE COMPRESSOR.

Edward was unexpectedly laisod to the
throne of England at the age of forty years,
twenty seven of which he had passed In
exile. Wien an infant bis mother had
laid him or the altar, and soemnly offered
him to God, and his holy youth showed he
had not withdrawn the Offering. On the
throne the virtues Of his earlier years
simplicity, gentleness, lowliness-shone
with new brightness, but especially angelic
purity and detachment. By q rare inspi,
ration of God, though he married to coA.
tent bis MOBILES and people, he preserved
perfect chastity in the welded state. So
little did be set his heart on riches that
thrice when he saw servant robbipg his
treasury he let him escape, saying the poor
fellow needed the gold more than be. He
loved to stand at his palace gate, speaking
kindly to the poor beggars aud lepers who
crowded about him, and many of whom he
healed of their diseases. He was laborious
the Danish oppression had brought the
kingdom to q sad state. The land was
half untitled, the mobiles turbulent, the
clergy relaxed. Edwards zeal and sanctty
soon wrought great change His reign
of twenty four years wes one of almost
unbroken peace, the country grew prosper;
ous, the ruined churches rose under his
hand, the weak lived secure, and for ages
afterwards men spoke with affection of the
claws of good st. Edward" He died Jan
uary 5.h, IO6S.
The holy king had great devotion to
building and enrichiug churches. West
minister Abbey was his last and nobest
work. 1t occupied his laet sixteen years,
during which he epent on it the tithe of his
revenues. He fell i'll in the midst of the
last preparations for its dedication, and
even on his deathbed would make
ready the sacred vessels aud ornaments,
and write the deeds for it's endowment. He
jast lived to see the completion of his work
of love. God rewarded him by making
the glorious church he had raised the
shrine of his relics aad, amid all the de-
structon of sacred things in England, the
sanity body has remained undisturbed
within it to this day.

ST. WILFRID, BISHOP.

ga quick walker, expert at all good
works, with never a sour face, e,"-such was
the great St. Wilfrid, whose glory it was
to secure the happy links which bound
England to Rome. He was born about
the year GA, and was trained by the Celtic
monks at Lindisfarne in the peculiar rites
and usages of the British Church. Yet
even as boy Wilfrid longed for perfect
conformity in discipline, as in doctrine
with the Holy See, and at the first chance
set off himself for Rome. On his return
he founded at Ripon a strictly Roman
monastery, under the rule of st. Benedict,
and at the Council of Whtby obtained the
adoption of the Roman Easter. In 664 be
was elected Bishop of Lindisfarne, and five
years later was tranferred to the see of
York. He had to combat the passions of
wicked kings, the cowardice of worldly
prelates, the errors of holy men. He was
twice exiled and cnce imprisoned; yet the
battle which he fought was won. He
swept away the abuses of many years and
a too national system, and substituted
instead vigorous Catholic discipline,
modelled and dependent on Rome. Sternly
uncompromising in matters OF principle,
Wilfrid was a most tender father with bis
flock. During his. exile he converted the
Friesland sav8ges by his kindly ways, and
taught the men of Sussex to fish while be
won their souls to God. He died Oct, 18th,
700, and at his death was heard the sweet
melody of the angels conducting his soul
to Christ.
At the Council of Whitby, A. d. 664, the
difference between the sdherents of the
Scottish and Roman usages-particularly
as to the time of the Observance of Easter
came to crisis. Wilfrid concluded an
enthusiastic address on the Roman side by
quoting the words of our Lord to st. Peter
~ Will give thee the keys of the kingdom
of heaven" etc. .'Can you," asked KiHg
Oswy of Colman, the leader of the other
party,-"can you show any such power
given to ColumbaP" He answered, "None,"
and admitted that the promise was made
to Peter alone. "Then is he the door.
keeper" replied the king, "whom will
never gaineay lest, when 1 come to the
gates of heaven, there be none to open to
me, he being my adversary who is proved
to have the keys."

ST. PAULINUs, BISHOP.


Paulinus was one of the twelve Roman
to treinforce St. Augustine in the conver-
sion of England. After some stay among
the Christian converts in Kent, he accom-
panied st. Ethelburga to the court of her
betrothed husband, Edwin, the heather
king of Northumbria. He was already
coneecreted Bishop of York /; the flock was
to be collected by his own exertions. 1t
required the patience, prayer and miracu-
lous energy Of q Saint to overcome the pre-
judices of Edwin, who at last consented to
summon his priests and mobiles to hear the
new doctrines. The burning words of the
missionary pierced the darkness of their
souls, and the king was baptized, with
numbers of his subjects, on the epot where
now stande York Minister. Then Paulinus
travelled through Northumb bria, preaching
to M multitudes, and baptzing thousands in
the beautiful rivers of Yorkshire, whilst
Edwin and Ethelburga labored by his side.
At the end of six years an invasion of the
heather, in which Edwin was killed,
forced Paulinus to retire again, with the
widowed Ethel5urga to Kent. He was
then appointed Bishop of Rochester, where
he labored till his death in GA. BDt his
work in the north outlived the persecution
and aged men would tell with pride how
they had been baptized by the majestic
bishop, who was tall in stature, STOPPING
from toll, bnt unbent in spirit, Paulinus,
the Apostle of Northumbria.
When the question was asked, who
should destroy the pagan temples Golf
a heather priest just converted by Paulin-
US, arose and said, 'Who is filter than
myself to destroy, through the wisdom
which God has given me, these things
which worshipped in my folIyf" And,
going forth, he cast spear into the midst
of the temple, and ordered it to be burned
to the ground. If we endeavored with
equal fortitude to destroy tue idols of our
corrupt nature, the grace of our baptism
would bear more fruit.
