'g, an'h, 0cemony which ok 0 at Rome last aerO notble ernto M the religious history of thf ooutty The new oardinal, an adopted son'of the South, possesses, to the lghest ' degree, the rspeot and esteem of all seots, and the brief do soription'now given of the proceedings of the Consistory at which tie red hat was bestowed upon him will prove inter esting. The ceremonial was held in the main hall of the Vatican in front of the Papal Throne. '[n semi-circular form around this was arranged the chairs for the Cardinals, presenting a scene picturesque in the extreme. The auditory was thronged with a favored assembly, ad nitted by cards, and made up of the most noted people in the Holy City. The Pope, clad in white, with a face beaming with benevolence, gave much strength to the Church's claim of the Vicarship in its-spiritual head. Before the Consistory opened, tho oath was ad ministered to seven Cardinals, conspicu ous among whom was Cardinal Gibbons. Then the doors of the private chamber were opened and the procession entered the main hall, passing the throne with bowed heads and uttering a prayer suit able to the occasion. The papal chair used upon all such occasions is modeled after the chair of the anciont Roman Senator, commemor ative of the chair presented to St. Peter by the Senator Pedous upon his con version to Christianity. In front, be hind and on either side of the Pope were thc Noble Guard. The ilabebelli, or tall ostrich plumes, were carried beside the canopy. The Pope, looking pale and feeble, after being seated on the throne, raised his right arm tremblingly and gave his blessing. Following are the names of the now cardinals: Cardinal Gonzales came first, followed by Cardinals Bernadou, Maz zolla and Giordani, in the order named. Cardinal Gibbons's sponsors were Car dinals Meichers and Mazzella. As pre sented each cardinal made his three oboisances, then knelt and kissed the cross on the Pope's slipper and next his hand, in token of humiliation and obe dience. The seven new ecclesiastical princes now approached the throne in the order that had been assigned them. The man telletta or short red cape of each was drawn up over the shoulders and gath ered about the head, and as ho knelt at the foot of the Pope a master of cere monies held above his head the broad, red tasseled hat. Then the Pope, lean ing forward, held his hands outspread above the kneeling figure while he utter ed a prayer in Latin. After the prayer each newly made Cardinal was embraced by the Popo and when he had embraced all his colleagues he proceeded to the chair which had been assigned him and took his seat, wearing his berettsa, all the other Cardi nals remaining standing and uncovered, the idea thus illustrated being that the now prince of the church, having re ceived his hat fi-om the hands of the Pope, had become the equal of all the others. When the last of the seven had made the tour of the semicircle the Pope rose and gave his pontilical blessing to priests and people, after which he was escorted from the hall and into the hal] of the paramenti by all the Cardinals. Cardinal Gibbons received many con gratulatory telegrams and heaps ol A Newspjapet.r Fable,i. A $ Mark anad a * were one day lefi close together oni the Imposing Stone, and the $ Mark coughed in a Pompoui way and observed: "I am constantly used to designat< the Wealth of tile World." "And I," rep)lied the *, as he Bristled up in the Promptest Manner, "aln sym. belic of Liberty." -''By means of me," continued the 6 Mark, "the Printer can changeo 1,000,000 Grains of Sand into 1 ,000,000." "Yes, but H-eaven's vaults are studded with Stars, and I amn frequently used in Print to rep)resent Unknown Quar tities.'

M. 13rawner, who represents a big distilling company of Baltimore on th< road aind travels extensively West and South, was en rouate home from a six weeks' tour the other (day and gave glow in g accounts of the business outlook. "Sales are better and collections mort promipt," he said, ''than they have been f or years, and buyers seem to have con fidence ini a continuation of the good times they are enjoying. If this state oi things keeps up all the politicians in thac count.ry can't prevent the re-aclection oi Cleveland in .1888.

It was warmly received by the mixed audience of Northern and Southeru people. The Rev. Dr. Arthur T.

Peru has virtually sold itself to tlay its bonded indebtedness. One hund'ed and sixty million dollars in bonds were held bv English capitalists, and the debt-ri dii and war exhausted country filing itself able to pay in no other way, has cancelled the debt by transferring to the bondhobilers the railway systems of the country, together with the right to work the guanto mines, and the returns from the custom house of its most prominent port. This system of farmin" out the pbthlic property will leave the little country with but few resources by which it will be enabled to rebuild its sht tered fortunes.
