GOOD FRIDAY WITH BROTHER IGRATICIE.

Ow= • allonerotrosere.,
Yr:4oo4y morning Brother Ipatius and the
breeloss of the KegUsk order of Bt. Beeediee made Modal
efforts to celebrate Goad Friday scowling to their podia:
views. The chapel wee hang with Math, sod all daylight

apparent that s prommiee was advancing, at a snail's
pace, through the gloom. and thresdlog its way
carefully through a rather numerous and closely
packed congregatioe, priecipally of the poorer elem.
The rich baritone voles of Brother Ignatius could soon
hi detected In the hymn which the procemion was singing.
Whoa the procession reached the situ a few more
males were lit, sad it was then possible to observe
that Brother (patine wore a cloak of gold vestment on
his bask. while his bead was severed with the oowl of the
order. The Bev. G. J. Onseley closed the proosesion,
wearies a vestment of black, with • large white moss on
the both. The monks, pre and simple, wore only

next proceeded to read orb the gospel of
the day, or, as he termed it, the "pussies of Our
Lord Jesus Christ, accordieg to St. Jobe," Mr. Oaseley
standing near with uplifted and folded bands. The gospel
for Good Friday is a pretty long one, and, u Brother lens-

feature of the service occupied • considerable time. At the
words, " It is finished," and " he bowed his head, and gave
up the ghost," an attempt was made to poetirsy the lightning
and thunder which the Scripture narrative record to have

the monks, and most of the cosgregation prostrated them.
selves for a few seconds. Brother Ignatius then completed
the resding,or rather the singing of the gospel, after which
various collects or prayers followed, each being
preceded by the formals, "Let us pray," "Let us kneel
down," "Let us rise up spin" the effect being that Brother
Images, Mr. Ouselm, the maths, and the faithful, were
continually rising and falling, and falling and rising,
although they were standing when the prayers were read.
The prayers were offered for "John Thomas, the prelate
chorea to rule over us," for "bishops, priests, sad
all the holy people of Clod." for " all order" and
degrees of men," for "our eatechnmens," for the sick, a

for all hentice sad schismatics, and their return

the "perfidious Jews" (here Brother Igraine exclaimed,
l iya= of explanatioo, " We do not kneel in this prayer in
and detestation of the Jews, who knelt in mockery
to our Lord"), ten. A veiled crucifix was then removed by
Mr. Oussley from the top of the alter, the crape which
covered it wa• partially removed, and Mr. Ouseley, holding
it aloft said, " Behold the wood of the mons." Brother
Ignatius eau the congregation responded, "Come let us
adore." The craps was thee farther removed, the crucifix
again held aloft, and the words, " Behold the wood of the
mow" repeated with the same response. Then the crape
was entirely removed, and the figure of the Saviour wu ex-
posed, Mr. Oueeley saying, " Behold the wood of the holy
moss, on which bang the silmtioe of the world." The re.
sparse baying been snug, the crucifix was lowered to the
ground, and Brother Ignatius creeping towards it re.
vereatielly kissed it. Mr. Gormley taking off his
oramombroidered vestment followed iris example.
Brother Ignatius then said that "in the name of
the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost," be desired to
my a few words to the congregation. whom he to
dreamed as " men sod women, eons, sod daug,hters of our
fallen race." He eooordingly weeded a Mod of pulpit, and
lea toes of impassioned entreaty besought all present to show
their love foe Jesus by conies to adore his holy cross. They
kissed, be said, the pictures of relatives and distant friends,
why not kit the emblem of their faith—the cross of their
Lord Hs then prescribed that during the "creeping," a
hymn should be song, that the faithful in drawing near the
altar should make three prastratioes, and finally that they
should kiss the diode and feet of the figure on the crucifix.
The chapel was perfectly destitute, yesterday morning, of
any ornament, and appeared a truly wretched place for
religious worship of any kind. Tbe brethren, aware of this,
are mideavouring to mired feeds for the emotion of a suit-
able church. The ventilation of the present chapel is very
defective, and when it is filled es it was yesterday morning,
the atmosphere is painfully hot sad stifling. However, the
masks almost live is it; and at all hours of the day and
'eht a deep-toned bell calls them to prayers.
