An Isish Priests Opinion OF the United

[From the Cork Reporter, Feb. IL
| On Thursday last the Rev. Bat. O'Connor, after
long absence, for the first time visited Midtown,
parish priest. No sooner was 1t known that Fa-
ther Bat. arrived from America, than his parshon-
ers locked from every quarter, to greet their wor-
| thy pastor. The more opulent and independent,
Protestant and Catholic, at once determined TO give
public reception, and dinner In honor OF him
was announced for Sunday night.
The reverend gentleInans mission to America,
whittier he had been depuled in the autumn Of
1871, by the Right Rev. DIR. Egan, to collect funds
towards forwarding the completion OF the most
splendid building which man, in this country, has
as yet dedicated TO Catholic worship-the killar.

With zeal and energy which few could equal,
Father OConnor prosecuted his object. Not only
was his appeal made in the temperate cline Of the
New Continent, but the pilgrim traveller also visit

ern, and wherever II was likely 10 realize shll-
Ing he penetrated, appealing to the geserous sym.

! appeal was well from every class and creed re-
sponded 10, but more from the naiuralized lnsh,
from those who sought and found home IN that
hcspiisble country.

bound 10 participate in his sentiments Not only
