A curious little complication
has arisen over The proper date
upon which The Columbus celebra.

The civil authorities, with a ze |
for astronomical accuracy which \
perhaps somewhat indiscreei, have
fixed thedut fur October 2i f.; The
American hierarchy have put il
down for the l2lh. Now II seems
that according to the universal
method at that day OF computing

Columbus discovered America on
October II, 1892. The same meth.
od-known as the Julian calender,
because it was established by
julius Cesar forty.five years Le-
fore the commencement Of The
Chistian era--continued, without
any change whatever, ill A. D.
1882 when Gregory XIII reformed
The calender by snppressing the
days between Oct. 4 and Oct. Is.
But while his holiness, having a
care for the worlds interest, and
