The PapaI Hierarchy.


The Catholic ReoieaO sums up the
grand titles and pretensions of the Papal
Hierarchy. Reckoning Leo XIII. the
two hundred and sixty-third of his line,
it proceeds:
The Pope is Bishop of Rome, Vicar of
Jesus Christ, successor of the Prince of
the Apostles, Sovereign Pontiff of the
universal Church. Patriarch of the West,
Primate of Italy, Archbishop and Metro
politan of the Roman Province, and
Sovereign of the temporal domain of the
Roman Church. His collaterals and CO.
adjutors are the cardinals Of these six
are of the order of bishops, occupying the
suburban sees; forty-six now hold pres
byterial titles and eleven DIAGONAL titles,
making the actual number of cardinals
sixty-three, of whom one was created by
Gregory XVI, forty eight by Plus TX.
and fourteen by Leo XIII. Three cardi-
nails have been created at the last consis-
tory, but being reserved IN petto, are still
unnamed and unknown. There are in
addition four hats vacant. Four of the
cardinals are older than eighty years,
twenty-nine are more than seventy. ff-
teen than sixty, twelve than fifty. There
are only three cardinals younger than
fifty. Fifteen cardinals have died since
the pontifcate of Leo opened. Next to
the cardinalate is the patriarchate. There
are six patriarchs of the Latin and six of
the Oriental rite There are 1876 hier-
archical titles, of which 1,O31 are dis
tributed as follows:
