A contemporary asserts that the reason is an impression that unless this is done the new pontiff will not live the custom has prevailed since it was inaugurated in 956 by Octavian Coniti who assumed the name and title of John Xii. Julius Medici would have made a breach had he been permitted but his friends prevailed upon him to take the name of Ole Mont he being the seventh Pope to Bear that name. Thirty two years later Marcellus Servius was elected and insisted upon retaining his own name. As Marcellus ii., therefore he ascended the throne on the oth of april. He was a Young Man and in robust health and yet he lived but Twenty one Days after his Elevation. Since that time no Pope has ventured to of fend against the tradition.

To at Pope bearing the name of Pius look the position in 142, and the name did not re Apcar after his death till 1458. From the contents of some of our recent despatches it would appear that there was Fin important difference Between a diploma tic conference and a Congress though according to Chambers is scarcely any. It was a conference which assembled in London in 182g for determining the Fate of Greece. A Congress May be defined As the Assembly either of Sovereign princes or the delegated representatives of Sovereign states for the purpose of consid ering matters of International interest. Previous to signing a treaty of peace a mooting of plenipotentiaries usually takes place to which the name of a Congress is sometimes applied though it seems More properly to be reserved for those More important meetings at which extensive schemes of future policy Are determined on and the balance of Power amongst the various european states readjusted. To this class belonged the famous Congress of Vienna at the termination of the great War in 1315 the Congress of Carlsbad in 1819, for regulating the affairs of Germany that of Lay Bach in 1820, for deliberating on the condition of Spain Portugal and Naples and Many others. As the envoys to a con Presb Are not sent to one Sovereign in Par , a modification of the ceremonial recognised by the Law of nations for the recognition of ambassadors takes place. There is no presentation of credentials but in Pluto of it an Exchange of the full Powers or warrants of the respective members. Destitution in new York. Tho Secretary of the association for improving the condition of the poor says that the destitution in new York was never so great As now and want is reaching i Bess to whom it has hitherto been Astran although the weather in december of Hist year was so much More severe than Tho past month has been the number of applications for Relief has been nearly double that of last year at a corresponding time.

She now occupies a basement room of a tenement House with her Little children and in dependent upon the association until he obtain some pupils to she can let sons. A merchant who Ashor time was Worth Many thousands now lives in a Chi rot utterly without Means until he can ii red employment. Such cases simply Illus Trio the Vicissitudes of life.
