As Apostolic Delegate Of tho Church of
Rnme to This Country.


RoME, Feb, 3.-The holy congregation
OF tho propaganda has addressed the
following declaration to the Roman
Catholic archbishops in the United
States:
"Nost IQGstriOus AID Most Rererend SirS
"The supreme pontitf has many rea'
sons ofsadness on account of tito dts
tresses which the impudent endeayors
OF wicked men are trying to bring upon
Christianity, and especially in Europe,
On the other hand, it is great consola,
tion to him to sec the increase OF
catholicism, with Code aid, elsewhere
in the world. This is especially true OF
the great republic, for which scarcely q
century ago there was hardly q Vestlge
OF catholicily, wo see now the church
tlourishing in the great number oil Its
faithful in its institutions OF governs
ments, its orders and hierarchy and its
large senate OF bishops, Encouraged,
therefore, the pontiF not only follows
with great interest the things pertain
ing to the good OF religion in these
parts, but has tried to show plainly his
great solicitude.
When the university Mt Washington
was opened it pleased the pontiH to
send q prelate to congratulate the
bishops on the event, and to encourage
them to still greater works. Now in
the fourth century after tho shores OF
America, separated by the ocean from
the old world were first discovered, and
while the memory OF the auspicIous
event is being celebrated in festivals
the pontitf, who is q great admlrer OF
the republic, delegates the same pre-
late, Il man OF the highest dignity to
testify to the pope's regard for this
post. The care OF the most thoughtful
pontia has not rested here. Since
growth has brought the church in
America to the stage OF maturity in
which it ought to be favored with those
institutions with which the church has
tlourished elsewhere, the pontitf does
not desire that there should be any
obstacle in supplying those aids OF
Christianity, whereby there may be
closer union with the centre, and where.
by Christian unity may the more
greatly increase.
Ills uollHeaaI tutrelOFei uEueIs tuO
holy congregation Of tho propaganda to
signify to the bishops OF the United
States that he has determined to ap-
point the vene rable Francis, titular
archbishop Of L0panto, apostolic dele
gale to the United Statea This, more
over, according to the custom OF the
church, seems appropriate to the state
OF dignity which tho Catholic religion
has attained in America, and especially
on account Of other peculiar clrcum.
stances.
Therefore, doubtless, you, illustrious
prelates, will receive joyfully what the
pontiff has thought it well to do for the
honor and good OF the church. While
informing you OF the most wise deter
mination OF his holiness We express a
firm hope that you will diligently assist
the distinguished man whom the pastor
OF the whole church has made delegate
among you in everything pertaining to
your affairs.

cation Of the propaganda January, 1893,

WASHINGTON, D, g., Feb. S,-There are
many inquiries to tho reasons which
led President Harrison to appoint a
Democrat to succeed the late Justice
Lamar on the supreme bench, The
statement comes very direct that he was
led to do this because Of Republican op-
position TO his making any nomination
and the responsibility for the failure to
nominate Republican is said to lie
upon ton or twelve Republicans in the
senate who were determined to oppose
any nomination proposed by the Prosi'
dent. 1t was at first his intention to
nominate either Judge Emory speer or
Judge Pardoe. On making inquiries
among the Republican senators rs to
which would be most apt to secure n
ready nomination, it was discovered
that there were about twelve Republi-
can Senators who would oppose any
confirmation, partly on account OF
their personal antagonism to the Pr eSi-
dent, and partly OF their desire to bring
other matters to the front in the Senate.
AT first on discovering this Mr.. Har-
rison decided that he would not send in
any nomination, He held to this pur-
pose until the afternoon OF yesterday
when he became convinced that Dem.
ocrat might be confirmed with tho aid
OF Dem mocratie senators. Hethen decid-
ed to send In the nomination of Judge
Jackson, whom he believed could be
confirmed and whose confirmation
would leave q very important circuit
court judgeship to- be filed. The Re-
publican senators who opposed his
making tho appointment will probably
try to prevent confirmation, and there
appears to be q strong probability that
they may succeed. Unless advantage be.
ing taken OF the custom cf senatorial
courtesy" which discountenance delay
in action on the nomination oil an ex-
senator, the matter will be forced to the
front with great promptness. II con-
tirmation is secured promptly it is eX-
pected that the President will nominate
Judge W. o. Bradley, Of Kentucky, who
is one OF the prominent leaders OF the
southern Republicans, and was very
prominently spoken OF at Minneapolis
for the nomination for the vice presi-
dency, to succeed Judge Jackson on the
circuit bench.
