WANTED TO KILL THE POPE.

The attempt Of . man, who Is IN
douLtedly insane, TO kill I!g:. Orzi. one
or the canons Of ST. Peters in Rome AT
the close Of y mass yesterday, caused
great alarm for q time, particularly AS
it became known that he had designs
against The pope hilrse::.
After he had been seized by the police
one OF whom he wounded, the man,
subsequently identified as Pietro~ Pc
santi, declared that he Eated the pope
and the priests, vino hadsbee- his ruin.
Pesant told a rambling story during
his examination. in Eh:ch De said he
had ich uncle ant a;:nS, whose heir
he would have been if the priests had
not induced them g leave their prop
erty to religious institutions.
This exasperated him, he continued
axctedly, and he killed ther, both. For
years he was in prison, and Gnally, be-
ing released, came to Eome to obtain
his last reveuge--that is, XII. the pope:
Since August of iast year, Pesanti
said, he had been trying to enter the
vatican, but had net been aole to do
so. Therefore yesterday lie had de-
cided to kill sorIe Of the eccleaas,lcs
holding office under the pope.
He added that he is neither social
ist nor an anarchist. bit an ant!-clerical
who hated all religions.

LAYS BLAME on AMERICAN.

OF all the great combinations o
American capital which have ex
plotted Mexico, not one has placec
in that county an Institution for tht
uplift or education OF its illiterate mil
lions, writes the Right Rev. Henry d.
AYES, Episcopal bishop OF Mexico. &c
the Churchman under the caption,
"Thc church and social unrest in Mex
ico," and in the conditions resulting,
the peon and the Indian have arisen
in revolt against their rich, proud
brother OF the north and his spoliation
OF their empire, says the bishop, fight
ing blindly in the main. against their
thralldom rather than human
enemy.
The 1000, 900 of Mexico's $4,000,
600 souls who are thus fettered have
witnessed the granting BY their govern
ment OF vast concessions to Americans,
he writes. They have seen Americans
grow wealthy at Mcxico's cost and
they see nov themselves at the bot
tom OF the social scheme, working for
a pittauce and living in ignorance and
discomfort, he declares. From the
bitterness ensuing. he asserts has been
launched the revolutionary slogan, Mex
leo for The Mexicans: down with the
Gringoe.
Aside from few mission chapels,
schools and hospitalS two or three
branches Of the y. NJ G. A. and a
Crittendon Homc,'' Bishop Aves
writes, that there is little to remind the
Mexican that his robust and prosper
Gus brother beyond the Rio Grande

fare.
Not one great American mining
company. delving ior Mexico gold
and silver, has placed there All instI-
tuition of aoy kind for the intellectual.
moral, social or spiritual bctterment of
the people. The Spandiards did better
than that. Not loug ago an 3mer',

single institution, school. home, hospi-

The name Of great and sood IRON
master" he concludes, is stamped on
the thousands Of miles OF steel rails

no monument to the beneficence OF
that good name among all the destitute

clan said he believed he was a leper
Health officer Woodward diagnosed the
