CARDINAL MERCIER.

The name of Cardinal Mercier has been added to the long list of church princes contributing to the glory of history. He denounced the German outrages in fearless terms and gained, through his bold utterances, the love of his people and the respect of the world. A Belgian gentlewoman voiced the feeling of her nation when she said: "We have three great men in our land-the King, the Cardinal and the Minister." The last is none other than our own Brand Whitlock. It is given Harvard University to see the first two of this great little nation's great men on two successive days: yesterday the King, today the Cardinal. Surely we must give these partners in suffering and heroism equally warm receptions. In the hearts of the American people they have an equal share.
