During the years that elapsed between 1880 and 1896, 91 new churches and 40 schools have loeen erected. The number of priests has increased from 384 to 620 ; the number of charitable institutions, homes, hospitals, etc., from 28 to 40 ; the number of members, from 600,000 to 800,000. Amongst the enter- prises brought to completion during this period are the building of the Mission of the Immaculate Virgin in Lafayette Place, and its country house at Mount Loretto, Staten Island. In the two are ...more than 2,000 inmates. Amongst the hospitals recently built may be mentioned St. Joseph's, at Yonkers, Seton Hospital for Consumptives, at Spuyten Duyvil^ and St. Joseph's Home for Incurables, at One Hundred and Forty-third Street and Brook Avenue. The Orphan Asylums on Madison Avenue and Fifty-iirst Street have been enlarged at an expense of more than $400,000. In remarking that the graceful towers have been added to St. Patrick's Cathedral, it is pleasant to remember that Eenwick, the architect, now dead, survived to see his beautiful Gothic work thus com- pleted.
