Celebrate the Censuryss Close.
The Roman correspondent of the New
York Freeman's Journal has cabled the
following letter from Cardinal Jacobini.
Ii proposes a plan to all the Catholic
Bishops throughout the world for extra
ordinary religious services in COM
memoration of the close of the nine
teenth and the beginning of the twentieth
centuries e
Most Illustrous and Most Reverend Sir
You have doubtless become aware of
the project advanced by a number of men
OF great piety to get -theYfaithful through
out tie Universe at the close of the pres
ent century TO affirm in a solemn mani
f~estation by a series of religious exercises
their love and, gratitude. to the aI-power-
fu HI, Keds ssas, % Of f thes human mar i race fnis mira
tive was to respond to the desire Of our
Holy Father, Pope Leo XIII, who wished
to sconsecrate this epoch Of transition
ordinary invocation of the divine assist
ance of Jesus. Christ as a happy presage
of peace and concord.
Now, the project of these personages
having received the full appreciation of
his Holiness, and Catholic delegates from
all nations assembled in congres at Rome
TO promote its realization, 1t has pleased
the Sovereign Pontiff to select me, without
any merit on my: part; as honorary Presi-
dent of the committee.
Here, aSEuredly, Is a NOBLE TASK, ana j
own that 4 am proud and happy to I'M
dertake it. For what could be moro
agreeable to nay feelings. than the .oc-
casion SO favorably presented to me at
the end of my to employ all the
strength that is still left me in promoting
the glory of our Saviour, all the more,
too, In these last days of a departing cen
fury? And What century has been this
Of ours in which proud men, relying on a
science unworthy of the name and dis
playing an activity which might be called
feyerish. have carried their audacious
temerity to the extent OF calling IN cues
zion the origin Of Christianity, or even
presenting rs a fiction, as q lying legend,
faith in the divine person of the Savior!
Wherefore we shall f~ervently strive, to
make reparation for the great injuries
done to our Master, to appease Gods
anger by our prayers, to exalt IN paens
who is The splendor of the glory and the
perfect image of the substance of God:
Such will be the TAI in which we shall
put forth all our zeal at the dawn OF the
new century.
Uniting, therefore, as closely as posi-
BILE under one head the efforts OF all, by
striking acts of piety and repatriation, by
the publication of desirable works, by the
great voice of the best daily papers and,
finally, by public demonstrations or al,
lection for the Roman Pontiff, we shall
easily succeed in celebrating these grand
solemnfties in the joy of our hearts, and
In an imposing concert, as II We're of
the voices of all nations. In this way
we shall clearly show forth our close al
lance of will, the wonderful unity OF
the Church, and the perfect union OF
the faithful with its head. Moreover The
