A Bold, BUT BEAUTIFUL FIGuKE.-During
the delivery Of a sermon, last Sunday, in ST.
Patrick's Catholic Church in this city, the eyes
OF the congregation were suddenly riveted upon
the speaker, Rev. Francis X. Boyle, by what,
for the moment seemed digrestion TO the all
absorbing topic of conversation and conjecture
throughout the civilized world-the Atlantic
Telegraph. The eloquent divine spoke in terms
Of glowing pansgyric Of this wonderful triumph
Of human science, and dilated upon the revo-
lutions which the grand achievement will ac-
compish in the commercial, political and social
condition Of the two hemispheres thus success j.
fully united by meanst of the electric sire.--
What is it, after oil, exclaimed the speaker,
when compared with the instantaneous com
munication between the Throne of Divine Grace
and the heart of mar! Offer up your silent pc.
tition for grace. It is transmitted through
realms Of unneasured space more rapidly than
the lghtnings flash, and the answer reaches the
soul ere the prayer has died away upon the sin
ner's lips. Yet this telegraph, performing its
saving functions ever since Christ sdied for us
on Calvary, fills not the world with gladness
and shouts Of exultation-wilh foundations
and bon.res and the booming Of cannon. The
reason il, one is the telegraph of this world,
and may produce wonderful revolutions on
earth: TIE other ID the sweet communion be-
wecn Christ and the Christians soul, and will
secure glorious Immortality in Heaven
