A ROMAN CATHOLIC BI`IHOP ON SABBATH OP-
-.ERVANCE.—The Bishop of Liverpool laid the founda-
tion stone of a new Roman catholic church at Ihirrow-in-
Furness on Sunday, and delivered a long address upon the
occasion. In the came of it he alluded to the day which
had been selected for the ceremony. " There will be
many,” said his lordship, " who will disapprove of such a
ceremony as that you have witnessed being performed on
this day ; but I have endeavoured to show you that we are
not bound by Jewish laws end prescriptions, and that when
the day was changed front Saturday to Sunday su also was
the manner changed, and, therefore, I am an advocate—
ay, even on the Sabbath day—on this day which is holy
unto the Lord—for the people enjoying themselves
with rational amusement after they have adored and ful-
filled their service unto God—to Him as our creator, ruler,
and preserver, in whose hands are our lives, and who
watches over us day and night. All homage is due unto
God, but after that service then I hold it lawful that mar
should enjoy himself by honest recreation ; and instead of
being driven stealthily to carouse in a public-house, instead
of being compelled to sit at home, brooding, perhaps, over
some rice, 1 would rather see our manly young people
gathering together and going forth to practice with
their rifles even on this day ; and I would
like to see our cricket clubs at work, and our athletic
youths strengthening themselves and recruiting them-
selves from the fatigue of the week by playing at
football and other athletic sports. These things do not
break the law of God any more than the smoke which,
going into a man, defiles him. We have, therefore, no
sympathy in any way or manner with the Jewish observ-
ance of the Sabbath ; and consequently we have selected
this day is order to perform this holy rite." The site of
the church is given by the Earl of Devcashire. The build-
ing, which is to seat 700 persons, is to cost 4,000 f.
