On a recent Sunday his Lordship Bishop Doyle visit(l New Italy for the purpose of conferring the Sacrament of Confirmation. Long before his Lordship arrived, the people were in readiness to give him a most ordial Avelcome. JNew Italy is a purely Italian settlement, they number in all 300 souls, and naturally they observe all the customs of their native country, Italy. They come principally from Venice and from the adjacent towns, Padua, Mankia, and Treviso ; ; and many of the older settlers have a very distinct recollection of his present Holiness Pius X. As a priest, he administered to their spiritual wants, and they were overjoyed on hearing of his promotion to the most exalted position in this world, the ruler of the Universal Church. They remember especially his Holiness's great spirit of religion and charity, his love for the poor, and his unselfish and sacrificing efforts in making the people attend to their religious duties and Catholic education.
