BAPTIST Church AT MOBLE.-A very large
congregation attended yesterday, Sunday morning,
81 nst TO participate in the Dedication services of
the new Baptist Church, on st. Francis street.
The Dedication Sermon was preached by the Rev.
c. NJ. Breaker, Of Marion, the editor of the 9 Ala
bama Baptist" This elegant edifce is one of the
most beautiful and commodious churches in our
city. Its front, with fine Ionic porticO, is
mounted by a lofty steeple and spre, pointing
like the finger of faith to Heaven" The interior
is finished with classic neatness and simplicity
presenting one large saloon, unbrOkeR by any gal
lery, except at the end opposite to the pulpit The
psws are spacious and convenient; three aises
affording ready access to any part of the church
The pulpit is plain, but tasteful, and we perceive
that the construction of the church is such as TO
enable the preacher to be heard in any part with
ease and dstinctness. This edifce has been
erected during the present year at cost of Sll OC0
1t was originally begun in lS47 but just the
building being completed, it was set fire to by
some fiendish incendiary, and consumed. The
loss thus occasioned was about $1,000. Upon the
ashes the present beautiful structure has sprung
up like the phoenix, its beauty but increased by the
calamity which sought TO destroy it. The entire
expenses have thus been Sl5,000-all of which
have been paid except 5000 still due, and $1,000
which will be needed to complete the basement
story. generous Christian community, it is con-
fdently believed, will speedily supply these requi-
site sums. The credit of erecting this church is
principally due TO the exertions of its amable and
talented pastor, the Rev. Mr.. Lindsey. He has
been of inestimabe benefit to the Baptist denom-
nation in this city, Mobile Register.
Mr.. Lindsey has resigned the charge of the con-
gregation with the view ofdevotng his time to the
colored church. His place has been supplied by
the Rev. Thomas G. Kean, minister Of known
abilities.

TEMFERANCE-St. Louis.-A grand procession
of the Sons, Daughters and Cadets Of Temperance,
took place at St Louis ON the 29lh ult,, the
Grand Division of Missouri, the Grand Division of
Templars, ten subordinate Divisions, Division
from Alton and the Cadets, numbering in all about
four hundred and fifty. These were Immediately
followed by the carriages occupied by the Daugh-
tiers of Temperance. The day could not have been
more delightful for the season, Says the Organ,)
while the pleasing strains from the different bands
so far apart as not to produce discord the Haunting
Of the appropriate banners, the gay regalia of the
members, and the happy, healthy and intelligent
faces Of the members rendered it very pleasing
spectacle, and we have no doubt caused many indi-
viduals to wish themselves of the number.

the following:
TEXAN EMIGRANTs.-T Galveston News of

Capt Furgensen, with ninety emigrants, arrived on
Saturday also, the American bark John Holland,
with one hundred and fourteen emgrants, arrived

come their own account, and will settle in the
interior Of the State. Judging from their appear
ance they viii constitute very desirable accession
to our population A part Of them left for Houston
by The steamboat S. M Williams; others will leave
by the Yacht, for Port Lavaca or Indian Point
The CATHEDRAL.-Th dedication Of the Catho-
lie Cathedral of Galveston, took place on Sunday
the 10Th inst. A very general interest had been
awakened among our citizens to witness the pro-
ceedings, and some 1900 or 2000 were probably
present. The two distinguished preates-the
Bishops Of NewOheaus and Buffalo had arrived

Port Layaca few weeks since, are encamped
near Bexar, aud their commander, Mai. Van Horn,
