THE pope has given consent that America may have a "saint," namely the late bishop of Philadelphia, John N. Newmann, by earthly nomenclature. All this at the instigation of the "Order of the Holy Redeemer," of which the bishop was a member. Evidences of his great sanctity have been gathered, and will be examined as to their orthodoxy. Three miracles are necessary, counting posturings of course. Among those stated are that decomposition of the body did not set in till eleven days after burial (not a difficult miracle in these days of skillful undertakers); that three different persons were given speech, hearing, and sight by his power, and that he foretold the recovery of a child and his own death. And this much America has gained during the last four hundred years! Beneficent "Mother Church!" "Glorified Country!" But the beneficence and glory are of the same character as was seen in the world's darkest midnight, the triumph of the Papacy.
