DIR. d. J. o'CoSNELL.
DR.. d. J. O'Connells name was moi
sent to Rome by the advisors in connec-
ton with the episcopacy of this diocese.
This eminent divine is the right man IN
the right place as president of the Ameri,
can College in Rome. He is considered
in high quarters as great diplomat, and
the fact OF his being lnguist (the
writer having had the pleasure OF con
versing with him in four different Ian.
guages) renders him an almost indispen'
sable representative of the Catholic
Church Of the United States in Rome.
From the present indications the day
is not very far off when DR.. O'Connell
will be appointed as coadjutor to Cardi-
nal Gibbons, with the right of succession
as Archbishop of Baltimore.
CHURCH OF THE SACRED HEART.
The Church of the Sacred Heart is
rapidly approaching completion, and

attractive and an ornament to that Sec
