THE COADJUTOR BISHOP OF SYDNEY.

A cable message dated Rome, January 5, states that the Bight Rev. Mgr. Kelly, Rector of the Irish College in the Eternal City, hat been appointed Coadjutor to his Eminenoe Cardinal Moran. The appointment is considered very probable, bat we believe the newt is somewhat premature. The voting for coadjutor took place on November 14. The three names selected, before being sent to Rome, had to be submitted to the hierarchy of the Sydney Province and the Australian Archbishops. After that, due time for inquiry and consideration is taken by the Holy See previous to making M important an appointment. In all probability the Borne correspondent mistook for an appointment the mere announcement that the names of the three prelates selected on November 14 had reached the Holy See.
