OPENING OF THE NEW PRO-CATHEDRAL AT KENSINGTON. Yesterday the new pro-Cathedral Church, situ- ated at Newland-terrace, Kensington, was solemnly opened with great splendour. The new church is built off the high road to Hammersmith, nearly op posite Holland Park gates, in a hollow square of homes, on the site of Capper House School and its playground. The plan consists of nave and aisles, spacious apsidal choir, side chapels, sacristies, and a chapter room. Owing to the limited width of the site the width of the church is only 60 feet, with a total length of 155 feet. The style is 13th century Gothic, treated with a certain and legitimate free dom in its adaptation to the material—brick—of which the fabric is mainly constructed. Exteriorly great simplicity has been observed, excepting in the principal entrance, lost at present behind some houses not belonging to the property. A lofty wooden spirelet, with angels standing about. its base, forms a striking feature, and marks the extent of the choir ou the long and otherwise unbroken ridge of the chief roof ; it rises to a height of 135 feet from the ground level. In the interior, ornament has been applied with a less niggard hand, though with a very judicious sobriety and taste. The nave columns are magnificent shafts of polished red Aberdeen granite, surmounted by beautifully sculptured capitals, whilst au upper arcade embraces the lofty Celestory lights, and bears the arched roof. The church presents a strik ing effect with its vaulted roof, its nine great tra ceried windows, its arcade, and its sumptuous Altar of varied foreign marbles. As yet all other fittings and the softening effects of stained glass are want ing. The total cost of the completed church will be £lO,OOO. The architect of the beautiful fabric is Mr. Goldie of Kensington-square, whose church at York is well known to travellers in the north. The announcement that High Mass would be sung by Dr. Morris, Bishop of Troy, and that his Grace the Archbishop of Westminster would preach the sermon, drew a very large attendance of the clergy, and amongst the laity present were the Duke of Norfolk, the Duchess of Buccleuch, the Earl of Denbigh, the Earl of Gainsborough, the Austrian Ambassador, Count d'Apponyi, the Bavarian Minister, Count Ferdinand de Hompesch, and the Baron do Cetto, Lord and Lady Clifford, Lord Southwell, Lord lorries, Lady Dormer, Sir George Bowyer, Sir Robert Gerard, &c. At eleven o'clock the organ pealed forth, and his Grace the Archbishop, in his full robes, attended by the Vicar- General, the Rev. Dr. Gilbert, and a long train of ecclesiastic; amongst whom were the Bishops of Beverley, Northampton, and Clifton, Monsignors Clifford, Capel, Banomi, Patterson, Searle, Dr. Oakley, and the other Canons of the diocese, having taken their seats on the right of the altar, the Bishop of Troy sang the Mass. The K 3 ri Gloria and Credo was from Beethoven's mass in C, and the Sanctus and Agnus Dei from Haydn's first. The scene during the celebration of the mass was of the most i ',posing grandeur ; the high altar was decorated with six magnificent silver candlesticks of the most exquisite workmanship, in addition to the large gilded candelabra containing the lighted candles. The sanctuary was covered with a splendid carpet, and the steps leading thereto, on either side, filled with choice exotics. The chapel of the Virgin on the left was also profusely decorated, and altogether the scene presented was one of the greatest splendour. The effect of the whole was greatly heightened when his Grace the Archbishop in his cope, a full and flowing robe of silk, thickly embroidered in gold, wearing his jewelled mitre, and supporting himself Stith his silver crozier, came into the miost of the congre gation, and, standing on a small elevated platform, preached the sermon, the text of which he took from the 2d chapter of the Second Epistle of Saint Paul to the Corinthians. His Grace, having alluded to the immutable truths taught by the Catholic Church, made reference to the removal of the seat in which his noble and revered predecessor had so long sat at St. Mary* Moortields, to the new church they were then assembled in, and said that it had become necessary to do so in consequence of the new missions that had been opened of late years. There was no reason why it was done, indeed, beyond the circumstance that, as the Church vas not stationary, that as it was so largely extending itself to the westward, it had been thought advisable that the pro-cathedral should migrate thereto from the eastward. Forty years ago, in the district they wore then assembled in, there were nothing but the dwellings of the gr, at, churches were not now i)lan theted there, but a change had come over them, and westward was fully covered over with the organisation of the Catholic Church, and all was fully occupied. That circumstance alone would be sufficient, his Grace observed, to render it necessary that the cartre of the diocese should N bo changed from the east to the west. They must not think that the seat of the diocese would for over remain iu the church where they were then assembled. It was merely being used as a provisional cathedral until the projected memorial to his great and much-beloved predecessor was erected ; the present church would then become a simple parish church. A site for the proposed cathedral had been obtained, but how soon or how long it would be before it was erected ho could ntit say, but as soon as the means were at his command not a moment would be lost. The means might arrive before expected, but until they came as a Godsend—and he used the term in its sacred sense—nothing could be done. On Sunday next, his Grace continued, he should ordain the first priest in the new pro-cathedral, and from that time it would become the seat of the archbishopric and the centre of the dio cese, until God translated that centre elsewhere. He was rejoiced to observe a change was now coming over tho country, old errors were passing away, the fictions of the past were fading out, eternal truth was ascending, and England was beginning to act justly to the Church of God. Many were now doubting about that which they had never doubted before, and that was which was—the true reli gion! The Catholic was the first, and he felt certain it would be the last. All things tended to prove such would be the case. The Catholic Church was not now treated with contumely by Englishmen ; on the contrary, it was now received by them, and they, the Catholics,were treated as equals, and they received equal laws and equal freedom. There was a great desire for unity ; he might truly say unity was hungered after by tens of thousands, and that it would be accomplished in good time there could not boa doubt. The English people, his Grace observed, had never rejected the Catholic Church ; but then it might be asked —Who made the change ? Why, it had been brought about by a handful of bad men in power, who did not scruple to enact penal laws to carry their actions into force. Eng land therefore could not be guilty of that which it never did. England seemed once more desirous of returning to the unity and charity of the Catholic faith, and amidst the groat changes and upheavings that were taking place around them, he hoped and prayed they might be ani mated by feelings of brotherly love and forbearance, without which the great. work would be retarded and delayed. His Grace having concluded a very eloquent sermon, the proceedings in the church terminated. The company then proceeded to the school-room in Holland-street, formerly the parish church, and there partook of an elegant dejeuner, over which his Grace pre sided. After having partaken of a very choine repast, His GRACE rose and said—As he had the happiness and privilege of presiding over them, he had the power of making law; that power he should exercise, and his law would be as fixed and unalterable as that of the Modes and Persians. (Laughter.) His law was that there would be but one speech—(laughter) - and he (the Archbishop) would make it. (Laughter and cheers.) There would also be but one toast, and to save time he should propose i_t• (Che ers .) He had communicated the fact to Father -u :cleY, and at the same time told him that it would be (Lau rr 00 h g e h a t l e t r h . of ) He was sorryePope--and Father Foley believed him. to say the h ea lth h e h a d t o he pose to them was not the Pope, but that which would propose was " The Health of Father Foley and his flock." (Cheers) Of F a th er F o l ey he Could truly say few had succeeded to a greater degreede in securing the good wishes of his friends and of etallz.waslt standing but two years ago, when he (the then assembled, in the place in which they were 'worship, but had now which formerly was their place of build the w church their school-room, that the proposal to e a n r d e e d r, so there we The prosp ect was c Was then made known to him. and. the felt asthnaott,halilltghotaugngnibrleatihneirt speaking, thoughtd Foley is bhayeon(cithohisChvoairreru);, humanly thing had been but the of magnitude that one—(cheers) - and done on a scale he had The vast magnificence of the never any idea of. day had, he was sure, called they church they had opened that and to bring about such fotth the admiration of all, faith, zeal, determin • a work a man must have had ate); patience hear) - ~ and self-denial —(hear, and Father Foley had m the highest degree.

(Hear, hear.) The new church bad been built with prudence—it had been well done; and hero he was called upon to pay a tribute of admira tion to the architect, who, in the present instance, had out done himself, notwithstanding his splendid works in other parts of the country, and with which many of them were acquainted. The building was noble, simple, vigorous, bold, and beautiful ; it was well adapted to the purposes for which it was intended, and no money had been frittered away in needless ornamentation ; and he again urged them to do all that was in their power to assist in the liquida tion of the responsibility which still remained. Twoyears ago it was not known where the means were to come from to build the church ; but they had come, and the means of building others would come. He (the Chairman) felt quite sure that those who could give would give, and those who could 'tot would gather. (Hear, hear.) lie would, therefore, give them the health of him to whose energy and untiring ardour they owed the new church at Kensington. (Loud cheers.) The Rev. Mr. FOLEY returned thanks for the praises and compliments lavished upon him. He had encoun tered difficulties and trials, but happily strength had been given him to surmount the obstacles, and the great desire of his heart had been accomplished. (Cheers.) The company then sep•trated. MONEY MARKET AND C MER CIA L INTELLIGENCE. - CI TY, Two O'CLOCK. Consols are quiet to-day at 921 8 for money ; ditto, for Ae.;ount, 92-1 ; Three per Cent.

The colonial produce markets this week have been freely supplied, but there has not been much activity in the demand. Rather larger quantities of coffee have been offered at auction, and although for good and fine qualities steady rates have been obtained, the transactions in other kinds have generally been at terms in favour of buyers. There is still but little inquiry for native Ceylon, and some parcels brought forward to-day were bought in. Sugar has been quiet, without altera tion. A fair amount of West India has been sold, and several floating cargoes of foreign for the United Kingdom. Rice continues dull, and soft grain qualities have been parted with at lower rates. The quarterly sales of indigo are advertised for the 12th inst., to contain 7,600 chests. Saltpetre at pub lic sale to-day was bought in above the value. A large business has been effected in cotton, at ad vanced quotations. The common descriptions of cocoa have been disposed of at a slight decline. Tea has been very quiet, but to-day there was a little more disposition to buy. Sales of China are de clared for next week. A meeting was hdd yesterday of the Hudson's Bay Company, when the directors' report was adopted, an.' a dividend declared for the half year of Bs. per share, making a total distribution for tiro twelve months of 145., or Si per cent. At the meeting yesterday of the Atlantic Tele graphiCompany, the report of the directors, which has already been published, was adopted, and they were authorised to pay a dividend at the rate of 8 per cent. per annuin on the first and second Pre ference Stocks, as well as to apply the debentures in the hands of the company to paying charges on capital account. At the meeting yesterday of the Oriental Hotels Company (Limited) the directors' report was adopted. The business of the Galle Hotel hLs con tinued to improve, the net profits for the year 1868 being £4,204, or £777 more than in 1867 ; but at the Cairo Hotel the net profits have been only £1,229. Since the date of the last meeting the Board have received the report of the completion of the Cairo Hotel ; and it was mentioned that the extra charges for the building and for commission to architects and surveyors have all exceeded the estimate. The directors have consequently been unable to meet the instalments due to the contractor at their due dates, but he shows continued forbear ance and support. BRITISH FIINDS—CLOSING PRICES.
