THE Bulwark gives the following extract from the Swiss Katholik, an organ of the Old Catholic Church, which disowns the supremacy of Rome:—“Leo XIII. knows better than any Pope before him how to make suitable presents to everybody and to accommodate himself to all. To the Abyssinians he sends relics; to his faithful in Europe rosaries, scapulars, medals; the Orientals he courts by conceding priests’ marriage and the retention of their own rituals. To England he extols the Bible and holds out hope of owning Anglican orders; in France he is a friend of Republicanism; in Turkey he goes hand in hand with the Sultan; to rulers he commends himself as the foe to disloyalty; to the working classes he poses as their champion against capitalism. He helps the Italians to conquer Abyssinia, while he offers his presidency in a new Areopagus to the Peace Society; he praises the temperance advocacy of Bishop Egger in St. Gall, and blesses the liqueur of the French Benedictines. Such a many-sided Pope the world has never seen! According to the Scripture, it is not easy to serve two masters. Leo XIII. is ready to serve a hundred together, but while he serves so many he serves the interests of only one, and that is himself!”
