POPE LEO TO THE CLERGY.

The following is a translation of a
letter OF Pope Leo to Cardinal Gibbons
with reference to the coming Catholic
centennial to be held in Baltimore next
month, and is expressive Of the senti-
ments entertained by the Holy Father
towards the clergy and laitY in this
country: THE great love for country
which you and your brethren, the bish-
ops of the United States, have 80 often
and so nobly manifested, is again strik-
ingly illustrated in the letter which
you have addressed to us. From it we
learn that pastors and people are about
to assemble in Baltimore to celebrate
the Tooth anniversary of the establish
ment of the sacred hierarchy of the
United States. On the same occasion
you propose to dedicate the Catholic
university, which, with the generous
help of the faithful, you have founded
in Washington is happy presage OF
future greatness for the new era upon
which you are about to enter. 1t is
truly worthy of your faith and piety
thus gratefully to recall the blessings
bestowed upon your country by divine
providence, and at the same time raise
up in the memory of them monument
which shall be an honor to yourselves
and a lasting benefit to your fellow
citizens and to the country at large.
And therefore we gladly unite with
you in returning thanks to God, the
author Of all gifts. At the same time
we cordially congratulate you on the
zeal with which you emulate the ex :
ample of your glorious predecessors,
faithfully treading in their footsteps
whilst ever widening the field opened
up by their apostolic labors. Most joy.
fully have we welcomed the expression
which you and other bishops convey to
us of your loyalty and devotion to the
Apostolic See. We desire in return to
assure you that, like cur predecessors
of blessed memory, we, too, bear an es-
pecial love towards you, our brethren,
and the faithful committed to your care,
and That we pray fervently for your
prosperity and welfare, gathering COM
fort meanwhile, no less from the readi-
ness of your people to cooperate in all
manner of good works than from the
examples of sacredotal virtue which are
daily set before them. In regard to
your wish that some representatives
from this city should IN cur name be
present at your celebration, we readily
assent to it. the more willing because
their presence will be an especia! mark
both of our esteem and benevo-
lence, and of that bond of faith and
charity which unites pastors and peo-
pie to the supreme head of the church.
In conclusion we earnestly pray to God,
protector and guardian Of the Catholic
cause, that under the prosperous and
favored public institutions by which
you are enabled to exercise with free
dom your sacred ministry, your labors
may rebound to the benefit of church
and country. And as a pledge of our
special affection we lovingly impart
apostolic benediction to you, to our
venerable brethren, the bishops of the
United States, and to all the clergy and
faithful committed to your charge.
