sacred ceremony took place at five o'clock
and about four hundred and forty person
received this holy sacrament. More thai
half of this number were young girls, vary

very pleasing incident occurred shortly
before the ceremony about fifteen of the

them the episcopal blessing.
DIOCESE OF NEW YoRK.-The Freeman'a
Journal contains the following items:
The Church of the Mater Dolorosa, stu
| ated on Pitt street, was to have been dedi-
| Gated on Sunday, September the 9th. The
Very Rev. W.. STAIRS, v. G., blessed a
chime of four bells, made by the Meneeleys
of Troy for this church. The Mater Dolo-
the Capuchin Fathers, and is a fine structure
in the Byzantine style of architecture it
is sixty-nine feet wide by one hundred
deep, with sufficient ground in the rear to
allow of charging when it may become
necessary.
Only a short time since, we noticed the
reception of n number of Dominican Nuns
at st. Peters Church, Memphis On the 10th
of August, the Very Rev. G. A. Kelly, o. p,
received, in the same church, the profession
of Miss Kate Rapp, under the religious
name of Sister Gertrude. This, is the sixth
nun received at the st. Agnes Convent,
Memphis, within few months.
DIOCESE OF NATcHEz.-The Natchez
Democrat says: Sister Martha died at ST.
Mary's Asylum, in this city, last Monday
evening, of typhoid fever. Her remains
were conveyed to the Cathedral Tuesday
afternoon, preparatory to sepulture. Here
the solemn services of the Church. were
held, and an eloquent funeral sermon was
preached by Rev. Father Murphy. The
funeral procession was then formed, as
follows the coffin, guarded by eight pail
bearers, the orphans of st. Mary's Asylum,
and many ladies Oh foot, carriage contain
ing clergy, then carriages and other vehi-
Giles containing the Sisters and citizens
generally. Arrived in the old cemetery,
the coffin was buried in the lot of the
Sisters of Charity. 1t was truly touching
thing to see how quickly the tears came
gushing to the eyes of all the orphans-even
the ittlest of them-when they heard the
dull, dead sound Of the clay clods, as the
earth was being shoveled into the little
tenement where all that was mortal of this
good Sister now rests. The ittlest of these
poor orphans felt that they had sustained a
who had been to each of them q dear
mother. The nntimely death of Sister
Martha, cut short what would have been a
life of good works steadily pursued in
poverty, humility and chastity.

FOREIGN CATHOLIC INTELLIGENCE.

ROME, August 5-The correspondent of
the London Register, writing from Rome
under the above date, gives the following
news from Rome:
The Holy Father remains in Rome, and
as the Consistory, which, it is stated, will
give England another Cardinal, is to be
held in September, it is not probable his
Holiness will do more than pay passing
visit to Rocco di Papa, where our gallant
Zouaves are now encamped, such, at Least,
as have joined companies, as there are
many hundreds still in the depots, and
numbers are daily arriving.
The King of the Two Sicilies is resi-
ding at Rome for the autumn months, and
takes the greatest interest in the manGu-
vres Of the Zouaves, attending the parades
daily. -
I Father Gurdon is now in joint charge,
with Monsignor Stoner, of the English
speaking Zouaves, and both are constant
visitors in the camp. The health of the
men is excellent, and there is a very small
proportion in hospital, as the season -
unusually free from fever. The artillery
in the Aventine, and the Papa Giulio
barracks, are constantly exercised within
Rome itself, and on the Notifications, and
the ceaseless interest taken by General
Dumont in the works, is the best proof that
France has no intention of abandoning her
position.
The Pope's health is excellent, and on
the I'd he went, attended by his household,
to the Monastery of Capuchin Nuns of the
Holy Crucifx, and there having heard
Mass, gained the indulgence of the Por-
tiuncola. The franciscan churches of the
Piazza Barberini, Ara C9li, Stimniate, San
Francesca in Rissa, &C., were also crowded
| with the devout faithful from first Vespers
on the previous day, till the evening of
the I'd.
The Feast of st. Ignatius was solemnly
observed in the Jesu on the 10th, when
| first Vespers were sung, Monsignor Catani,
| Archbishop of Ancyra and Nuncio at Brus-
sells, celebrating Mass the following morn
| ing. An immense number of persons re-
ceived Holy Communion at an early hour
from the hands of the Father General of
the Jesuits, and Monsignor Suter, Bishop
of Tunis, officiated at the second Vespers.
The tonlbs of st. Ignatius were visited by
the usual devout persons, and the great
relics of the saint were uncovered in the
chapel dedicated to him.
Seven young Portuguese gentlemen have
arrived to enrol themselves as privates in
the Zouaves. Among them are Don Anna
Tells da Silva, of the house of Alegrete,
and two others are nephews of Don Rita de
Albuquerque do Amiral Cardoso.
In my last 1 mentioned the fact that a
number of Trappists had passed through
PerigueuX on their way to some unhealthy
marshes in the province. The same Order
has been at work for the last three years,
draining and fertilizing the pestiferous
marshes of the Dombes at Plantay in the
lDepartmeift. of Pain. The Fathers are

SINGULAR FULFILLMENT OF A PREDIC-
T1oN.-In the year 1888, Eugene Gazette
supped with distinguished party of guests
at the house of the Duchess de Grammont.
He sat silent at one end of the table, staring
at his half-empty glass, and only rousing
from his reverie when the victory Of phi
losophy over (" religious superstition was
too jactantly announced. Suddenly, he
sprang up, leant over the table, and said
IN hollow voice, and with pallid cheeks {:
You have reason to congratulate your
selves, gentlemen, for you will all be wit
ness of the great and sublime revolution
which you SO eagerly desire. AS you
arc aware that / understand something
to me. You, M. Condorcet, will give up
the ghost lying on the floor of subterra-
mean dungeon; you, NJ. N, will die of
poison; and you, NJ N, by the execu-
toner's hand"
On hearing this strange outbreak, all
began protesting that prison, poison, and
executionef had nothing in common with
philosophy and the sovereignty of reason,
on whose speedy approach the soothsayer
had just congratulated them; but Gazette
colby continued:
"And all this, tell you, will happen
in the name of reason, humanity, and phil
osophy. Ali 1 have announced will take
place when reason is the sole ruler, and has
its temples"
"In any CASE" Chamfort retorted, " you
will not be one Of the priests of that
temple"
edly will, for you deserve to be chosen
before all for such functions. For all that,
you will open your veins in two-and twenty
places with a razor, and will not die till
some months after the desperate operation.
AS for you, NJ. Vicq d'Azyr, it is true that
the govt will prevent you opening your
veins, but you will have them opened by
another person six times in the same day,
and die during the following night. You,
NJ. de Nicolai, will die on the scaffold; and
80 will you, NJ. de Malesherbes!"
Thank Heaven!" Richer exclaimed,
+" NJ. Gazette only owes grudge to the
Academic"
But Gazette quickly continued:
10 You, too, NJ. Richer, will die on the
scaffold and those who are preparing such
destiny for yourself and the rest of the
company here present are all philosophers
like you"
"And when will all these fine things hap
pen 2" some one asked.
"Within six years from TO- day"
Every one acquainted with the history of
the French Revolution will perceive how
exactly the prophecy was fulfilled.

TASTE AMONG CATHoLIcs.-Rev.D DIR. Os-
good, Unitarian, says there is something in
the readiness of the laboring men and wo-
men among the Catholics to contribute to
church art, that could teach lesson to
many Christians of boosted hberality, who
have little idea of any beauty beyond dress
and furniture.

SCIENTIFIC AND MECHANICAL.

A WATER YELoCIPEDE.---Ani ingenious
application Of the principle Of the velocipedt
| 70 water lOcOmOtion has been recently
tested ON the Lake of Enghien, near Paris
A pair of hollow watcr-tight pontoons
about twelve feet long, ten inches wide the
each end, are fastened together, about
twenty inches apart, by transverse bars;
near the extremities. In the centre is placed
the seat, being about two feet above the
water, and supported BYRON rods. In
front is the paddle wheel, about three feet
vided with sixteen floats, the axle turning
on stout iron upright, and the rotary mo-
tiOn being obtained by cranks worked by
feet. This little vessel is steered by rud-
ders at each of the sterns, and moved by
lines. The po1toons being made of thin
is very light, and glides along with aston
islling rapidity. This water velocipede,
having been built as first experiment, is
no doubt susceptible of Improvement in
some of it's details, but the principle may
be pronounced complete success. The

INvENTIoNs.-It may sound like a little
thing when we are told that a method has
been invented by which honey can be
separated from the honey comb, so deity
that the cells are left almost unipjured,
and can be re-occupied by the bees; but
when we come to sum up the immense in
dustry directly effected by this saving, the
matter grows vastly in Importance. When
paper collars and cuffs were first invented,
they excited only general merriment, but
emerging from the ordeals of q trial " to see
what they were like" they have become
in which millions of dollars
were invested and realized. Now, still
odder substitute for tidiness is suggested
to be manufactured from the wooden strips
exactly similar to those with which walls
are lined instead of the old fashioned paper.
White candles from bitumen exquisite
colors and even delicious champagne from
petroleum; India-rubber pavements ivory
from chemically treated turnips; absorbent
stucco-work from potatoes aud melon
rinds; artificial spODges from prepared
bread-crumbs are no less curious than use
full things, and they and the long line of
endeavor that they represent indicate a
annoyance of all the little as well as the
heavier operations of life whose conve-
niencc was overlooked in earlier days.
RARE BIRDS IN LONDoN.-A London
paper says: For several years past pair
of zebra parroquets have haunted the gar
the most familiar terms with the sparrows,
and are never seen except in company with
them. During the winter months the par
roquets disappear, but whittier, no one
knows. On the return of spring they come
back and rejOin their old friends. This
year for some time only one was observed,
but now both are visible, with a brood Of
five young ones. If any one be curious to
see them, he has only to walk into the
garden and disturb the flock of sparrows
that will be seen feeding upon the grass,
and on their taking wing the seven green
backs will be at once distinguished. 1t is
to be hoped that these beautiful strangers
will become natura1ized.

CRUELTY TO STowAwAYs.-TheL London
Tclegropk tells sad story of the inhumani-
ty Of the captain of a British steamer. 1t
appears that last April seven young ''stow-
Always" were discovered on board the
steamer when she was too far out to sea to
send them back. They were put at work,
but became seasick, and were beaten cru
ely and nearly starved. When Newfound-
land came in sight, the captain, supposing
that the ice extended in solid foe to the
shore, put six of the boys off, with a biscuit
apiece. He soon found out, however, that
there was broad, open sheet of water be-
tween the foe and the mainland. The cap
tain of another ship rescued four of the six,
two of them having died-one from exhaus-
ton and the other from drowning. When
the steamer returned to Scotland the story
had got out, and the captain was only saved
from summary punishment by his arrest
and confinement.

ABDUCToRs OF CATHOLIC YoUTH.-lt is
known that there are individuals in the
Northern States who, under the pretext of
finding homes for friendless children, alb
duct and dispose of them to farmers and
others for a. stipulated consideration. A
case of abandonment is given as follows:
A Chicago paper relates story of two
New York newsboys who were taken to
the New York Newsboys' Home, being left
with an hotel bill unpaid. They footed it
to st. Louis and thence to Chicago, where
they were living on charity. The boys are
named Andy Shields and William Jordan,
but the name of the agent is not given.

AGRICULTURAL.

PRODUCTIVE CoUNrRY.-The Norfolk
Journal says that gentleman in Southamp-
ton county, Virginia, sold ten thousand dol
lars worth of strawberries off of ten acres
who jointly conducted a small truck farm
five miles from Norfolk, cleared twenty five
thousand dollars by the sale of berries and
vegetables.
LONDON WHITE PorATo.-This is new
variety recently introduced from Canada.
According to the Country Gentleman, it is
very white both in skin and flesh, and deli
cate in appearance. The vines are small,
and it can be planted to advantage only
two and q half feet apart either way. 1t is
believed to be the earliest variety in use;
ripening before either the Early Rose or the
Early Goodrich.
PICS FOR FATTENING.-The american
Agricultural says: If the pens are furnished
with shelter and water, we should say be-
gin to fatten the pigs in August. pound
of pork is made much more economically in
warm weather than in cold. Little food is
wasted in keeping up the animal heat, and
many green articles are available which
are out of season late in the fall. Swine
enjoy fresh clover fed every day with their
cooked corn or prOvender. Sweet corn
ought to be raised for the purpose of feeding
in the green state to swine. It greatly pro-
notes their thrift, and we have thought
makes flesh as economically as any food
that can be given.
THOROUGH CULrURE.-Let us briefly
state some of the advantages of thorough
cultivation. 1t involves: L. The mechanical
pulverization of the soil, giving better
seed bed, and making the particles more
accessible to the action of the roots. 2.
Better drainage; the soil being moist and
mellow where it otherwise would be baked
and hard. 3. The cooperation of the at
mosphere in further decomposing the COM
minuted particles of the soil, and setting
free the mineral elements of the growing
plant. A. The absorption from the atmos-
phere of greater portion of ammonia and
carbonate acid for the direct nourishment
of vegetable life. 5. The increased effect of
manures, from their more complete inter-
mixture and, consequently, more perfect ac-
ton. 6. The cleansing of the lands from
weeds, which not only abstract the nourish-
ment due to the growing crop, but also gen.
crate Successors, continually multiplying
themselves from year to year. The better
condition of the field for machine work it
dulls the knives of a reaper or mower, and
leads to frequent breakages, to cut through
the clods on roughly seeded field. 1t
should not be forgotten how efficient an
agent in the pulvcrization of q heavy soil is
the alternate freezing and thawing of winter.

MILES O'REILLY.-How little do daily
readers know of the tolls, mental and
physical, which editors undergo in getting
up their favorite journals! Speaking of the
late Gen. Halpine, the New York Eceninq
Mail says:
A gentleman, whose Office adjoined that
of the Cifi-en when it was in the IGmes'
building, said he once knew Gen. Halpine
to enter the editorial room at five o'clock
in the afternoon, commence writing vigor-
ously, and continue through the night,
being found bard at work when the neigh
Dor came to unlock his own door at nine
next morning. His face was suffused with
blood, every drop of which seemed to have
found it's way to his brain his head was
bound up in wet towels, and the veins on
his brow swollen to a fearful degree When
the next issue of the Citizen came out, with
the exception of few columns on the first
page, the paper was filed with the articles
of Gen. Halpine. Poems, story, essays,
paragraphs, leader, editorials of all kinds,
were his own, the product mainly of those
seventeen hours Of continued labor.
