Father Dufly then read as follows:
[t is by no r.'nv.ns easy to obtain an audi
ence of Ills Holiness, Pope Leo Xlll, for
p)ie reason that he insists upon giving his
personal attention to every matter of im
portance, and is at work almost night and
day. To him it seems that it is, compara
tively speaking, a waste of time, or at least
a lost of time, to receive visitors who de
sire to look upon him, and to have the
honor of kissing his hand, or the embroid
ered cross upon the
There has been no
Vatican in several months, and about the
only opportunity that highly favored per
son's have of seeing the holy father is by
being permitted, on some especially solemn
occasion, to be present at the mass which
lie celebrates in his private chapel at tile
Vatican.
THE POPE’S PRIVATE MASS.
Applications for permission to lie present
at the mass, and to perform in this way
what is esteemed a “supreme act of relig
ion,'' are made to the perfect of the 'Ponti
fical household, the learned and distin
guished Mon sign ore Macchi, hut the num
ber of the so who can attend the mass will
not exceed twenty to thirty, and, indeed,
I he holy father insists upon the limitation
of the number, so tha't it often happens
that those who are most worthy of the
honor are compelled to leave Home without
seeing the holy father, although they have
waited for the purpose week after week.
Hut when the notification comes thut
permission is given to be present at the
holy f nheipriva e ma--s,it is seen at once
by the style of the notice and the condi
tions attached to it that it is no ordinary
matter. The costume, for example, is
prescribed. Ladies must be dressed in
black, without bonnets or hats, and their
heads should be covered with the graceful
black veil or mantilla. For the men, who
are not in official uniform, the costume is
the ordinary evening dress—black coat,
and waistcoat and trousers, and white
necktie, and no gloves. It is the rule to
give to those who are admitted to the holv
father’s private mass the crowning priii-
It-ge of receiving the holy communion at
his bands. This is stated in the official
notification.
THE ENTRANCE TO THE VATICAN.
The time when tiie visitor shall arrive a;
the Vatican is expressed in the notice, and
it is not likely that he will lie tardy in ar
riving, The usual entrance to the Vatican
is by the grand staircase, one of the grand
est in the world-culled scalu regia, at the
side of St. Peter’s, and 'which is guarded
always by the Swiss Guards, in their pic
turesque mediffival costume of red and yel
low. This, indeed, is the frontier of the
pope’s doininioiis. Only within the vuti-
catican and St. Peter’s has iie any tempo
ral sway, and the police of the Italian gov
ernment walk tneir rounds within bow
shot of the pontifical guard.
Passing up the Scala Regia, and from
conn yard to court yard, and from stair
way to stairway, and througti hall after
hall, the visitor reaches at last the ante
chamber of tiie Holy Father’s private
chapel. It. will seem strange that it should
take so long, some ten minutes, at least, to
reach this spot; but you will understand ii
when I tell you that the Vatican is the
largest palace in tiie world, and contains
about as many rooms and halls as there are
houses of every kind, big and little, in this
city of Charleston. It is a vast pile—a little
world in itself -without reference to the
adjoining Basilica of St. Peter's, of which
there is no time to speak.
THE SERVANTS OF THE POPE'S HOUSEHOLD.
Returning to the vestibule the visitor is
relieved of his outer garments by officials
who are elaborately garble! ill erinioon
silk, with knee breeches, silken stockings
am! buckled shoes. They are gorgeous
people. But they are noi princes nor (Takes
nor marquises in disguise, they are only
tiie servant.? ol'tho household. The visitor,
having surrendered his authorization, is
now usheivu into the room which consti
tutes the part of the private chapel which
is allotted to visitors, and is sepanueu by
folding doors from the .sanctuary. Punc
tually at the time appointed for the mas?
th«‘ folding doors are thrown open, the
corgiLgatiun is told to kiuei and! clu- holy
father appears before the altar, giving hi?
messing to the congregation and sprii.k-
ung them with holy water while he re*
cutes the asiverges. The lady fat imr is then
fuad ixi tiie usual manner, and ;he mass,
winch is a low mass and is served »/ two
( 'f the (ionustic prelates of tin* pontifical
household, two of the “monsignori” in

THE HEALTH OF THU POPE.
; Doubtless you would like to knew .• inu-
j thing concerning the health and appear
ance of tiie holy father, in view of the con-
! dieting reports on the subject widen are
I published from time to time. Tiie .-roly
| father was never particularly robu.fi. and
•when lie was cardinal peeci. and. of course,
long before lie became pope, lie had a.
severe attack of fever and, uf; T tiie usual
| manner of Italian physicians, was hied
j very freely. But the surgeon who oled
| him, and who is presumed to have been
unskillful, cut one of the sinews of the
| arm in bleeding the cardinal, who. in con
sequence of this, has from that time open
' atliicted with trcniulonsness of tin right
hand and arm, which is supposed by those
unfamiiiai with tiie facts to be evidence of
paralysis or of great weakness. This, .it
ail events, is the explanation given of this
particular infirmity in the ante
chamber of the vr.t’ean. The holy
father walks with some little difficulty,
but this is reasonable, as Pope Leo is Pi
vears oi l. You can receive it as an abso
lute fact that his health is. at least, as good
tu-davasit was when he became pope,
and that is saying a good deal, in consider*
tion of the enormous work which he per
forms, for he labors incessantly night and
day, tiling out his secretaries ana every
body else about him. Much ot' the work
which his predecessors were accustomed
to entrust to their ministers he insists upon
supervising himself, aijd it is certain noiv
that whatever conics from the Vatican, in
smell things, has had the personal knowl
edge and approval of the holy father. His
habits, as you may imagine, are of the
simplest possible description.
SUPPORTED BY “PETER'S PENCE.”
Besides this, he has no revenue whatso
ever ot'any sort or kind except the volun
tary contribution for his support made by
the Roman Catholics, his faithful dock
throughout the world. It is from the
“Peter’s pence” alone that the Vatican,
with its vast machinery and enormous ex
penses, is supported, audit will not be un-
uleasaut to you to know that it is from the
United States that the bulk of the money
ci mes. It should be added here that
large reductions have been made in the
pontifical establishment and that every
possible expense lias been reduced. The
personal expenses of the Holy Father do
.at amount to fifty cents u day. Whatever
else is spent is spent for the necessary work
in connection with the administration of
tiie church.
You must not think that the usual pho
tographs give any just idea of Pope Leo
XIII. They make him seem to be a man
of crafty face, with anything but an at
tractive expression; but the truth is that
he has a highly intellectual and equally
amiable countenance, and that there is a
gentle kindliness in his face and manner
which cannot fail to impress every one
who is brought in contact with him, and
is, at least, but. a faint expression of his
own purity and truth.
Arthur’s Illness.
New York, May 18.—There is still more
or less talk about ex-President Arthur's
illness and a certain sympathy is expressed
for the patient, who is so quietly battling
with a disease which, it is felt, must con
quer all opposition. Said one physician
here to-da; : “You cannot learn the truth
except from Gen. Arthur’s own physician,
Dr. Peters. That gentlemen, for reasons
| of );is own, keeps tiie secret to himself.
lie cannot prevent the more ;.run.,n nt
I physicians from expressing an opinion.
! These concur in the opinion that I iiave
| expressed. Gen. Grant had tilt tain vra
' long while before his physicians
hail courage enough to stick their fingers
! down iiis throat and toil him his disc use'. In
the same way wit’’. General Hancock, his
I physician was actually afraid U> ask for
j permission to examine him. Dr. Peters..
I with otiu rs. was a little mortified that he
i was not laded in to see General Grunt:
I lis sil.-nee now means that he wisho-- to
get even. I know Dr. Peters, ami be i*

SAMUEL DUNLAP.
Genial, hearty, honest, whole-souled
;tui! Dunlap! Why, every man, woman
and child from the •‘Ureal Smoky” to the
Gulf, and from t he Tombigbee to the At
lantic, ill smile 1) ick a rt cognition to tllQ
pleasant coiuileiianee we picture.
Born in (Onmctieut, while yet a young
man, in 1S5I, he came south nnd loeated in
tliis state, l!rat at Fort Valley, and remov
ing from there shortly afterward to Amer
icas, where he first developed his c.ipacity
for a e unt’.HTeial life. After some years
r<•■iidciiee here he associated himself in
business with 1*. il. Oliver, at Albany,
building a large slore. At Albany he was
unfortunate enough to lose his wife hy a
s’rokc of lightning, and shortly after re
turned to his first love, Amerieus, where
th<; outbreak of the civil war found him.
He ( n'isted s' rving first in t.hecompan\ ' of
his relative, ( '• pt. I. It. Branham, of Com
pany 15 of the
M A CON VO L f NT EE US,
and afterward in the cavalry under Major
B. G. Lockett. The close of the war found.
Mr. Dunlap stranded in Macon, but his in
domitable energy soon recuperated Ids for
tunes, nnd the firm of Dunlap & Usher,
fancy goods dealers, was well and widely
known until they burned out. After this,
for a short time, he was in business at
Rome, from when* he entered into that for
which lie was intended by nature—a sales
man. In this capacity he has been con
nected constantly with some of the best
and
MOST WIDELY KNOWN
of the eastern manufacturing hornes. lu
187*1 he removed with his family to Atlanta,
and has been n resident of this city since.
Meeting him on the street during the
week, the reporter was greeted with a
hearty handshake and earnest:
“How arc you, my lad?”
“Pretty well, Sam; how are you?”
“Sound as a dollar, my hoy; although if
I had met you ten days ago I could not
iia vc said as much.”
‘ Why, how was that—been sick?”
“Well, you must know that for tnc past
ten years I have been suffering with kidney
disease, which every now and again would
grow Imd and tfi\e me serious trouble.
About two months ni{o I began to have one
of my had spells, and for the past eight
weeks 1 have been suffering some or most
of tiie
‘TOltTUItES OK DANTE’S INFEKNO.'
“I have tried all the physicians and inedi*
cities that I could hear or read of,aiid their
name, as you know, is legion, hut until a
week since the disease lias held undisputed
sway. Il is not a pleasant thing, m.v boy,
to know Hint a disease which some of the
most not' d physicians of Ihe country have
pronounced as the most fatal to humanity,
lias a mortgage upon your vitals, \ D ll you,
it .sort o’ takes the good humor out of a
felioW.”
4 And what miraculous dispensation has
operated in your behalf, Sam?” queried
t lie n;" >r!er.
