before your Holiness, with all becoming sub

It is true that it costs some men a much to
greater effort to be polite than others. It d
was said with bitter spleen of an English It
statesman, "Canning can never be a gen. Ii
tleman for more than three hours at a time." w
It is true, too, that there are times in every tl
man's life when to be even coldly courteous at
makes an exhausting draught on one's pa. in
tience; but silently to devour the many be
ohagrins of life, and to maintain a respect- or
ful bearing toward others, even under cir- fa
cumstances of vexation and trial, is not be
only a Christian duty, but worldly policy. 81

'ood It was the close of November in the year
as a 1871, and all the world knows what the
not end of November is in the Bavarian High
ris: lands. But the intense cold, the frost, and
ool, the remote situation of the parish offered
end no obstacles to the venerable Archbishop.
ar- He was aware that the parish priest intend
ed to perpetrate a fresh scandal on the en
nd- suing Sunday, and therefore he left Mcnich
r a on the Saturday and journeyed towards the
al- far-off locality. The railway trains, which
iris are reduced in number during the winter,
oks and are frequently interrupted, obliged
ieir him to remain several hours of the coldest
- aft-of-the night in the miserable station of
Rin Rosenheim. At one o'clock in the morning
en, he was able to continue his journey, and at
in last arrived at a village not far distant from
at . Kiefersfelden, where the good priest re
'le ceived him into his humble dwelling with
lst. the utmost affection, providing for him
rho during the remainder of the night to the
hr's best of his ability. But the Archbishop
the was unable to find repose, and rising before
s. the break of day he betook himself to pray- t
ith er. Whilst kindling a camp fire hle chac
to ed to burn his hand, but in spite of the u
is pain it caused him, the morning had hardly
as dawned before he got into a carriage -to
or drive to Kiefersfelden. On his way thither t'
-. the horses got restive and one of them be- P
as came nearly unmnuageab!e. However, the
w venerable prelate commended himself to I
ad God, and to her who never abandons those t
if who are in trouble. The horses were quiet- h
ly ed, and at last the Archbishop arrived ri
safely at Kieferselden. The wretched y
is priest had been made aware the day. be
e- fore of his coming, and had had recourse to
at the most extreme measures; in order that Ic
the Archbishop might not make use of the tt
church he had had all the chairs and benches il
covered with a coating of oil paint. The se
Archbishop arrived, and was received with Ye
el the liveliest demonstrations of respect and 5Z
affection on the part of the good Ca.th- at
n olies, and with scorn and insults on the PC
part of the sectarians. lie descended from ee
his carriage and approached the church.
One of the faithful warned him of what had
been done the day before by the parish of
- priest, but the Archbishop, without being lie
ii deterred from his purpose, sent his secre- Hi
ary to the priest to give him notice of the
r decree whereby he was suspended and ex
r communicated. No sooner was ther docu- W
ment handed to him than lie threw it down -
on the ground and protested againt it. In the
meantime the Archbishop went to a chapel _
dedicated to S. Otho. which was the only u
one that it was possible to use. The faith
ful crowded around him and filled the cu
chapel, whilst those who could not enter
stood in throngs before the door. The
Archbishop celebrated Mass there, and af
ter the gospel of the day had been read, tOn
turning to the people, he announced to
them, amidst tears, the distressing step
which the obstinacy and temerity of their
priest had obliged him to take. "It was
necessary," he said, "that he should sns- tin
pend him from his office, and seplarate him A
from the Church until such time as he
should return to a right mind and recog
nize his sin. lie had decided upon this
course only after suffering great pain, and
after all his prayers and entreaties lihad been de
offered in vain. They must not, therefore,
look upon him any longer as their priest, T
but they must not on that account indulge
in any act contrary to charity; on the contra
ry they must recommend him most fervent
ly to the Lord, as lie himself would do in the
Sacrifice liet was engaged in celebrating." A Inst
burst of tears from himself and from all who
heard him interrupted his words. Then TEI
le resumed his address, presenting to them
the new priest to whom he confided them,
and whom he placed at their head. "They Capi
must listen to him, they must follow him; Subs
he would protect them from all error and
from all evil, but, before all, above all,
they would be protected by that great Mo
ther to whoseo patronage lie specially com
menuded them on that day." Overcome by
profound emotion ho was unable to pro- 'Thri
ceed. The august ceremony continued, J M
and immense numbers of the faithful ap- s L
proached to receive Holy Communion ti L
which, not without dillculty, lie distributoe i i
with his wounded hands. Jose
What was the priest Bernard doing
meanwhile? Agitated, but not converted, N''
he also entered the chapel where the Arch
bishop was celebrating, and assisted at his
gao to prea ch, upon thle p uzz u, ugauin t ptime
Couucil, against every one. 1u the mean- 1
time the Archbishop, having hinished his

hlie received an answer which was at once -JP
very much to the purpose and thioroughlly

by the faithful, entered his carriage, wear- Met

and more deeply into the abyes of nobclief .:, c

But the hour of' thie Lord struck for tihe

Dr. Chalmers beauntifully said, "The little
that I have seen in the world and known of
the history of mankind teaches me to look
upon their errors in sorrow, not in anger.
When I take the history of one poor heart
that has sinned and suffered, and represenit
to myself the struggles and temptations it
passed through-the brief pulsations ofjoy;
Sthe tears of regret; the charity; the deso
latioh of the souls's sanctuary, and the
threatening voices within; health gone;
happiness gone, I would fain leave the er- i
ring soul of my fellow-man with Him from R
whose hands it came."
