CARDINAL NEWMAN AND EARL
BEAcoHsFIELD.--On most Saturday
afternoons in the last year of the first
decade of the present century, two
boys, aged respectively nine and
FIVE, might have been seen playing
in the grounds of Bloomsbury Square,
London. The boys, both natives of
the Square, offered the most COM
plete contrast to each other in ap.
pearance. The younger, whose head
was profnse With long, black, glossy
ringlets, was a child of rare Jewish
type Of beauty, and full Of life and
activity. The other was grave in
demeanor, wore his hair close cut,
and walked and talked and moved in
way which, in young people, is
called "old-fashioned." He was OF
pure English race and Puritanical
family. The names of the children
denoted these differences as much as
their appearance. The one was
Benjamin d'Israeli; the other John
Newman. Sixty eight years have
passed kince then, and much has hap
pened ID the meantime, bet nothing
more wonderful than that the hand
some little Jsw boy should become
Christian and Prime Minister of
Protestant England, and the Puritan
lad Catholic and cardinal of the
Holy Roman Church. - Hornet.

aim. DE Rossi was stobbed in the
neck, and his assassins practised the
blow for some nights previously upon
q corpse in the Roman hospital. At
Siena there seems q passion for kill
ing priests. A Sunday evening is gen.
orally chosen for the attack. On q
recen. Sunday in that delightful city
a parish priest was returning home
and two men stopped him to ask aims.
The priest was putting his hand into
his pocket for the accustomed soldo,
when one of the ruffians stabbed him
in the neck, and the priest fell to the
ground. He rapidly recovered and
sprapg to his feet and discharged a
revolver at the retreating assassin,
but wiihou. effect. The wound in
his neck is most serious, and would
have been immediately fatal bnt for
the thickness of his collar. A re-
spectacle lawyer received the other
morning, q letter in these terms :
Uno, doe, tire, domani tocca te."
This was signed by ga Nihilist Of
Siena." Three or four priests were
attacked on successive Sundays in
Sieno. apparently without any reason
except that they were priests.
