orders were no longer necessary, the Lords in Council do

THE EDUCATION OF Pt Hlllt ROMAN CATHOLIC CHIL-
ORE N. —Yestet day is pastoral from Archbishop Man nine NV AS
read in the various Boman catholic places of worship of the
metropolis, in whic`i the want of a more extensive system
of education for poor catholic children was forcibly dwelt
upon. The constitution and labours of the Poor School
Committee were explained, and the necessity was urged of
greater support being given to them, for it had Ines
recently calculated that from 7,000 to 12,000 children are
without the means of being educated. In order to remedy
this state of things it is proposed to create a diocesan fund,
from which missions requiring it may receive aid, and a
public meeting in furtherance of this object is annorneed
to be held tat St. James's Hall on Thursday next. A col-
lection on behalf of the fund was made yesterday in all
churches and chapels.
Depatchea were received on Saturday at the 0010-
nial-offica from the Governors of the settlements on the
West Coast of Africa. DeTitte.hen were sent to the Go-
v-nors of the Cape of Good Hope, Natal, St. Helena, this
No-tb American Provinces, and Bermuda.

Mes. GORDON, or JAMAICA.—Among the wor-
shippers at the Baptist chapel, Camden-road, Holloway,
yesterday morning, was the widow of the late Mr. George
Gordon, of Jamaica. Appearing for the first time at any
public service in this country, it was only natural that she
should be found amongst those of the same denomination as
her late husband, and who have so warmly defended his
character. The Rev. F. Tnelier, 8.A., minister of the
chapel, in touching and appropriate language, referred to
her bitter bereavement, expressed thankfulness for the
manner in which she had been sustained under no common
sorrow, and besought on herbehalf that kindness and sym-
pathy which English Christians are not slow to accord
to the distressed at all times.—Adtertisev.
