BISHOP MAGILr IN PoRTsMoUTH.-The
Norfolk papers of yesterday contain inte-
resting accounts Of the dedication of st.
Paul's, new and splendid house Of wor.
ship built by the Catholic congregation Of
Portsmouth Of which Rev. Father Plunkett
is pastor. Right Rev. Bishop Magill, Of
this city, performed the ceremony of dedi-
cation. Solemn High Mass quorum episcopo
was celebrated by Father Northrop, Father
Plunkett, deacon, and Father Vanderplace
sub-deacon. The Right Rev. Father Null
vey; Of Petersburg, vicar-general, and
Father O'Keefe, Of Norfolk, were also pre-
sent.
At the appointed hour procession OF
surpliced priests formed outside the church,
| at the head Of which slowly walked Bishop
Magill with mitre and crozier. He ap-
preached the main door of the edifce and
knocked with his crozier for admission
The attendant priests, in reply, chanted
"These are the gates of the Lord; and
when this was concluded the doors were
thrown open, the procession entered, ad-
vanced to the area surrounding the altar,
knelt, and chanted the Litany of the Saints.
This concluded, the Bishop, accompanied
by the attendant priests, sprinkled the
walls inside and outside with holy water,
returned to the altar, and when certain
prayers appropriate to the occasion were
offered up, the ceremony of dedication ter
minated.
Bishop Magill's sermon is spoken of as q
highly-interesting and impressive dis
course. In it he gave spirited sketch Of
the Church of Christ, claiming that the
Catholic Church was that founded by the
Saviour, which should endure for all time
"The gates of hell should not prevail
against it." The day may come, he said
| when the children of the Church may dis
regard her teachings and neglect to stand
faithful, and may prefer the riches and
honors to the way of the cross, but still, in
despite of Antichrist, it will survive; fo1
it is the ship of St. Peter, that canno,
| founder amidst the storms of this world
He exhorted his hearers to keep their lives
| in conformity to the doctrines Of the Church
! He highly complimented the pastor and his
| people for their energy and liberality in
erecting such a beautiful ediice. He in
stanced the immense treasures expended on
the temple in Jerusalem, which were most
acceptable to God, who honored it with his
presence. Yet that temple was not honored
as Christian churches are, with the corporal
presence of Christ.
In the morning the Bishop administered
the rite of confirmation to sixty applicants
The membership of st. Paul's now includes
over three thousand persons.

Wall street yesterday. A gentlemanly-
looking man entered the Office of Philip
Dater s. Co., and asked to see directory
While he was examining the directory Mr..
Dater placed $4,000 in bonds in the drawer

entered into conversation with Mr.. Dater,
and passed out of the office with him. He
soon returned, however, and asked again
to see the directory, which he received at
the identical desk where the bonds We're
placed. He again withdrew with nonchd,

from the highest authority the cheering in
formation that the whole road from Millers-
vile to Washington, and from the junction
at Collington to this place, is now under
contract to good and responsible contract
ors, who will push the work forward with
the least possible delay. The Richmond,

cially signifed its desire to cooperate with
our road, and its anxiety for a speedy con-
nection. The troubles about the right OF
way in Anne Arundel and the upper part

adjusted, and the workmen are now busy
upon the disputed ground without fear Of
further interruption. Our readers will

FROM THE SANDWICH IsLANDs-THE
LAST ERuFTIoN-A New ONE THREAT
ENED.-Mr. Goan has explored the 60
called "mud eruption" Of April I'd, and
finds that some previous accounts of it have
been erroneous. The vast mass of mud and
rocks, three miles long and half mile
broad, which was discharged into the val
ley of Kapapala with such fatal results
was not an eruption from @ central source.
1t was simply gigantic landslide. 1t was
the summit of a mountain dislodged by
the tremendous throes Of the earthquake
and hurled into the valley below. 1t was
the case, and Mr.. Coan says, of " a noun
tain that actually had its head shaken off"
The consideration in which Mr.. Coan's
volcanic knowledge is held takes sometimes
an amusing form. The people here call
him the Bishop of the Volcano" and ask
him when he will "order up" another
eruption or shut off the one in present
| action As the most "yeteran observer
| of eruptions in either hemisphere, his
opinions are thought to be as reliable in
matters of volcanic prognosis as those of
the physician who has @ specially in erup-
tions upon a smaller scale. Rev. Titus
Coan is the very Nestor of volcanoes.
Reports reach us from Kau of renewed
earthquakes, and of that which is even
more terrible than the earthquake-the
roaring and surging sound, audible by lis
tening with ones ear to the ground, which
was at the same place the precursor Of the
frightful outbursting of the lava from its
central reservoirs. We look daily for in
telligence that new eruption has taken
place.--Hilo Letter in Neoc York Times.
