How A Catholic Bishop is Chosen.

The method w hich will be employed in choosing a new bishop, to succeed the Bishop Dwenger, is thus described by an exchange: Some time within the next two or three months the six consumers of the diocese will meet with the immovable rectors, the archbishop presiding, and three names will be selected. Their names may be from any part of the country. After the selection of these three names the archbishop will meet with the bishops of the province and will pass upon the three names originally selected. They may approve or may throw out the names and make an entirely* new selection if they choose. The names which the archbishops and. bishops finally fix upon will be sent to Rome and from this number the pope will select the successor of the late Bishop Dwenger.
