Dedicat0ry Services-SermOn by the kcv.
DIR. McGiynn.
The new church OF the Dominican Fathers, corner
OF Sixty-sixth street and Lexington avenue was
dedicated yesterday with appropriate ceremonies
Previous to the celebration Of the high mass the
Very Rev. Father STAIRS, Vicar General and several
other priests, along with number OF choir boys
attired in white robes, formed in procession inside
the church, and proceeded chanting the hymns
usually sung on such occasions IN solemn march
around the building. The dedication OF the altar
which was very impressive, occurred before the pro-
cession started. The dedication ceremonies over
the mass was begun, the Rev. Father Wilson, the
venerable Superior OF the order being the celeDrant.
The musical part Of the ceremonies was exceedingly
line, The mass being sung IN the most ,daaas mas,
IN manner that could not be sur
passed. and brass band added to the attractive
ness OF the occasion by Joining the organ and the
choir in the more impressive portions OF the ceremo-
MES. The church was crowded TO its utmost capa-
city, Notwithstanding the miserable state OF Tie
streets in the immediate neghborhood consequent
upon the "tnaw,n and q large gathering OF inter-
ested spectators assembled about the doors OF the
sacred edice during the services IN order to enjoy
the delightful music.
The sermon was delivered by the Rev. DR.. Nc
Gynn, who took for his text the sixth chapter Of ST.
Jonn. He dilated at great length on the institution
OF the holy eucharist and argued to show that when
the first consecrated bread and Wine were used in
the service or the mass the bread was changed 10
the actual body OF Christ and the wine to his actual
blood. The reverend speaker spoke for over an hour
and closed by referring To the Church as the house
OF God, In which He dispensed His choicest blessings
TO those who obeyed HIS commandments Every
new church that rose iii the city was new defence
against the vengeance OF heaven which the sons OF
men were calling down upon Jhe world, ana every
church could be kened to a lightning rod erected
TO avert the curses or wrathful God and drew GOWN
upon The world God's most favored blessings

The developements to which the pre-
eediug aiiutles have startled the press of
the country, which call loudly for immediate
measures. Among these, we commend the
following from the Boston Gasette, az per-
tinent:
aThe crime has at length grown to such
monstrous proportions, that no human
language can begin to describe it. Why
ali the other sins and horrors OF our land
nut together, and even slavery, our late
civil war, and all the drunkenness, and even
the enormous course OF frauds, robberies,
burglaries, incendiarisms, and murders,
which we are now going tlaxcng ,asl these
rolled into one Hump, do not equal the
mass Of shocking aud inhnasan deprayity
which-fhe American people are guilty OF IN
this one particnlar. Our whole social and
domestic life and Being !. are su1sa,ng ,,a ana
of it. Nearly all our walks Of fashion,
wealth. aFistOcrncy, responsibility and even
of piety, or what passes for SUCH are full
of it.. Our Protestant churches are -cursed,
/ we sometimes fear, beyond the hope and
the possibility of redemption, by the hor-
rible impiety of it,"
This is, as every intelligent observer
must acknowledge, a fair statement of the
| case, the more to be noticed from the I'M
BIASED Judgment of the author. But he
continues in still more pointed language:
| "In this matter, and indeed in all points
rala.;.,s. e, marriage. motherhood, md thf
