Apropos Of noted men, the bishop Of

which is characteristic Of the later
worthy. The bishop is one Of the most
distinguished gentlemen in Mexico, and
a man of great laarning, WHOSE life hss
been a model Of holiness. While a cab
net minister he went by appointment one
afternoon to see President Santa Ana on
some important business concerning Of
fairs of state. Hardly had this confer
ence begun when Santa Ana abruptly
arose and left the room. The minister
waited, but the president did not return.
Time passed on. and still the minister
momentarily anticipated the return Of
his chief, until at length he inquired of
an aid-de-camp in waiting il he could in
form him how soon his excellency might
be expected. -Really. l cannot tell YOU"
replied the officer, -for his excellency has
gone 10 visit 'Colea de Plata Silver
Tally And pray. who is Colea de
Platag" said the Bishop. "A ~favorite cock

which he won this morning. and TO whose
care the president is now personally at
tending wa the answer. He did not
return that afternoon: and it is needless
to add that the minister o afterward

large tray, on which are laid the objects,

you have brought with a view Of the
pope blessing it. that you may bring it
to your Catholic friends, who look at it
from that m as a relic. You hold
in our hand whatever Offering you
have yourself to lay at the feet OF the
holy father. Mind you, you are on the
threshold; now comes the ceremonial
On the doorstep you have to kneel down,
you then get up and make three steps
and kneel down again, another three
steps and you kneel at the feet of the
padre santo and get hold of the hem of
his robe. which either he lets you kiss in
all humanity or he takes you by the
hand, lifts you up, and after blessing
you, stretches out his hand toward the
tray which the cameriere holds and pro
