His Holiness Pope Leo XIII. appears
to be decidedly enigmatical parsonage,
If we may trust the account given of him
by tho Roman correspondent of the
Cologne Gazette. The most striking fact
about him so far appears to he the slight
extent to which his character is known
either by the faithful at large or by the
inmates of the Vatican. Every one knew
how Plus TX. lived; his hours were
allotted beforehand, and the same duties
always performed at the same moment
There is total want of this regularity in
his successor. He keeps, late hours, and
has sometimes been found by his ser
wants at his desk Ill the early morning
half dazed after writing through the
night. He has all his meals served to
him in the greatest privacy, is much
more sparing of audiences than was Plus,
and even his State Secretary and the
Cardinals can only see him at irregular
intervals. The great innovation. he has
made has been his partial supersession
of the above mentioned official, who un~
der Plus * practically administered
the affairs of tho the Papacy. He has
set on foOta chancellory of his own, con-
sisting of three Private Secretaries, and
conducts his affairs with their aid quite
independently of the State Secretary,
and often over his head. It not unfre-
quently happens hat orders go down to
the Bishoprics l., n the State Secretary,
and are Cancelled III day or two by diff
fcrcnt orders from the Pope, or that the
Secretary brings papers to His Holiness
aud tells him that he has settled O par
ticular matter in such way, merely in
order to be told that the Pope himself
had already settled it in quite different
way. One thing is clear, that Leo XIII.
means to be master in his own house
but the exact aim and tendency of his
policy is by no means equally evident.
But Leo comes from the country of the
Cioccari, and it is believed ii Italy thai
q man from that district is commonly
rather deep-a notion which appears
also to be strongly entertained by thu
correspondent. Pail Mall Gazette.

backed up, and instead of the mangled

A representative Of the New York
World interviewed Gen. II. w. Slocum
on Saturday, he having just returned
from Mexico. He said: 81 am some
what interested financially in the Te-
hauntepec road, and desired to see how
the work was advancing. The first
twelve miles from the eastern terminus
are completed, and forty o are
graded. By July first fully fifty miles
will have been built and in running
order. Mr.. McAlpine Is there and has
selected q harbor for the western ter
minus, and will begin to build from
that end Immediately. A large guam
tity of rails and rolling stock will be
shipped thither within the next two
weeks. The road is being built en-
tirely by New York capitalists, except
that the company has n subsidy from
the Mexican government of $12, 800 a
mile to be paid as the road advances,
and this has been paid regularly so far
sne probably will continue be. While
1 was In the City of Mexico the sum of
$780, 900 was the appropriation bill to
provide for the payment Of the portion
that is expected TO be built during this
year. Grants road begins at a point
on the coast about fifteen miles below
Vera Cruz. the place where General
Scott landed his troops. There is much
opposition to this selection OF the ter
minus among the people of Vera Cruz,
who don't like the idea of n rival sea
port being built up SO near them, and
possibly some other point may be Sc
lected. As proposed, the course from
there is directly west to the Pacific; no
portion of this road has yet been built;
it has no subsidy. I think Grant will
succeed; he is popular, and has som
bright people around him among the
Mexican people of great influence"
