Unexpected Praise
The London ' Guardian ' [( Anglican) is not a paper to which Catholics would usually dream of turning for praise of anything relating to the Catholic Church. Yet in a recent issue it reads aright at least one lesson of the late Conclave. It says : •It is curious to notice— and it may surely be set down to the honor of the Sacred College—that, in spite of all that is currently said of intrigue arid political wire-pulling, and even of darker things, in regard to the election, the choice should have fallen upon a man of peasant extraction, of whom the one thing certainly known is that he is religious.'
