PANIC IN CATHOLIC CHURCH
The Quebec Ne,rs prints the follow
ing:
On Sunday evening, during divine
service, frightful panic took place
in st. Patrick's Church, which, but
for the GOODNESS and presence of mind
Of the respected pastor, might have
been attended with the most serious
consequences. Ayoung man who for
some time past has been laboring
under mental arrangement, and who
was, we believe, lately an inmate in
the BEAUFORT Asylum, found his way
into the Gospel aisle. at the eleva-
tlon, he was seized with fit, roared
ont loudly, and commenced the most
violent gesticulations, brandishine O
wooden crucifix in his hands. The
whole congregation at once started to
their feet, some thinking the church
was on fire, others, with the fears of
the late Fenian excitement in their
minds, thinking that it was but the
beginning of an outbreak, and all
more or less terrified TO add to the
disorder, some incautious persons. in
endeavoring to remove the poor ma
MAC, used him roughly, when his
screams We're again heard resoundinc
through the church. The choir
ceased, the priest at the altar became
silent, and m indiscriminate rush of
women, children and men was made
towards the side-doors and through
the sanctuary into The sacristy behind.
For moment the consequences
seemed frightful, and the Rev. Mr..
McGanran, from the sanctuary, in a
loud tone, heard above the noise and
tumult, explained the cause of the
confusion, and begged the congrega-
ton to be calm and keep their seats.
The conclusion of mass was then
proceeded with; but about e-half
the congregation had left.

ELECTRICITY IN a CoTToN Mill
The Lowell Massachusetts, Comie,.
Of March 23d says:
1t IS general truth that friction
develops electricity, and most know
that machine belt, at high speed,
by its friction with the air, is highly
electrified. 1t has for years been q
common experiment for O. workman
to light gas burners by holding one
hand to fast-going belt and the
other to the open burner. This mat
ter'was curiously demonstrated in the
Appleton Mills, of this city, on
Wednesday. A strong smell of fire
being noticed, the premises were
carefully examined, and a small qunn-
tlty OF cotton lint, inside belt casing,
was found on fire. The lint lay upon
beam which was within four inches
of belt fifteen inches wide, and
moving some 22O Orevolutionsa q minute.
In the beam was an iron bolt, the
head of which was toward the belt.
From the belt to the bolt was passing
stream of electric sparks, which had
set the cotton lint on fire After at
tending to this case, Mr.. Motley, the
agent, opened the casing of a similar
belt in another mill. The beam, in
this case, was fourteen inches from
the belt, but the stream of electric
fire was at once seen jumping across
the beam, although it had not set fire
to anything. Perhaps some of the
cases of fire from supposed spontane-
GUS combustion are due to the cleo
tricity from machinery. The subject
Is an interesting one for investigation.
and probably a profitable one.

tee. ~
WASHINGTON, April l6.-Among the tes-
tee: en- Reconstruction, was that Of Hon.
Alexander II. Stephens. Dir. Stephens
said he had conversed fully and freely with
the prominent men in the State OF Georgia,
and had met with a great many prominent
and influential men at MUedgeyiHe not
connected with the Legislature, and he
gave it as his decided opinion, resulting
from conversations and correspondence,
that an overwhelming majority Of the peo-
pie OF Georgia are anxious for the restora-
ticn Of civil government, and for the State
to take her former position in the Union,
and to have her Senators and Representa-
tives admitted to seats in Congress, in
order that she might enjoy the rights and
discharges the obligations of State under
the Constitution of the United States as
amended. He believes that the sentiment
Of the people of Georgia is against the
exercise OF the right of secession, and
g. that it was resorted to from desire to
render their liberties and institutions more
secure, and under the belief on their part
that it was absolutely necessary for that
object.
that the surest if not only hope for the
preservation Of their liberties, is the re-
storation Of the Constitution Of tho United
States and of Government under it. He
believes the people are so sufficiently salts
fed with the experiment, that they will
never resort to that mode OF redress again,
that is force.
Whatever their abstract views are on the
subject, they have come to the conclu-
sion that it is better to appeal to forensic
reason and justice, and to the halls of le-
gislation and courts, for the preservation
Of the principles Of constitutional liberty,
than to the aroma Of arms. The idea of
secession is totally abandoned.
