Miraculous CURES IN ITIY.-The Toce
CattolicG publishes the following statement,
addressed Ivy the physician of the Hospital of
Bassano to the Superior-general of the Sisters
there, concerning the instantaneous cure of
Sister Olivia de Treviglio, on st. Anthony's day,
the Sister having offered a hodioiau in her
favor to the tammatmrgo di PddorG:: ~.
am bound to announce to You an extra
ordinary and 'consOling event of the instanta-
neous cure of onr- Sister Olivia from her bed of
death (dd mOrte che era.) On Saturday, the
18th, at halfpast eight in the evening, paid
her my last visit / recognized at once from
the symptoms Technically detailed) the serious
and alarming condition of the patient. Now
hear what happened in the night. AT four
after midnight Sister Olivia rose from her bed,
which she had not left for TWO months before,
and, entering the room of the SuperiOress,
woke her with the words . l am eured.o The
Superioress thought she was wandering, mud
desired her to go back to bed. AT hnlt-past
eight next morning Iwas goingmy usual round.
entered the Sisters ward and met Sister
Olivia coming towards me in her nuns habit.
You may imagine my first surprise, After
wards, however. I observed her attentiyely,
and found her countenance calm, and all the
symptoms of her. disorder passed away. These
undeniable facts admit Of no scientific ex-
PLANTATION, such an event is altogether out of
the natural order OF things. Such calling
back to life of person declared incurnble-l
do not say merely by myself, but 10y DR.. Chi M
inelli and the experienced Or. Larber-is an
twice. Sister Oiiva's cure is fully manifested;
yesterday she went to church to receive Holy
Communion. In n word, it is nothing less
than n supernatural cure. For my part the
conviction of the Sisters approaching end had
been so strong, that had already written to
DIR. Piguolo, director of the Hospital of Reuigo,
for information on the funeral dispositions
observed in that hospital towards defunct
sisters.-I remain, etc,

S;ARprHAL. CULLEN on CATHoLrC EDUcA-
r1oN.-At the close of the late session of
the Catholic University ON the 3rd ult.,
his Eminence Cardinal Cullen delivered
o lecture, which IL. reported In full by the
iournals. 1t is profound and exhaustive of
the subject treated on. We take the
following extracts;
Where could the children, whose pa
rents were toiling from morning till night,
having neither time nor capacity to teach
the truths of religion, learn these truths
Protestant teachers, while explaining the
doctrines common to Christianity, might
Sn,part many things contrary to the Roman
Catholic faith. Then the Roman Catholic
child did not SET his master either making
the sign of the CROSS at appointed times,
OF going to mass, and he might say, with
some shadow of reason, "These practices
arSSaifficult to flesh and blood my master,
who is Il good man, does not perform them,
and /, not protesting to be better or wiser,
win not submit 20 practices which he
Fepudiates.n Again, every Roman Catholic
sentiment was banishcd from the class
books, which fact alone might induce the
scholar to think that there was nothing
true nor valuable beyond them. ass,,

Unrcquitcd Love and Murder in Boston.

Despatch to The EUening Telegraph.
Boston, Aug. 4.-Kate, the wife of Dr. Alya
Hobbs, of No. 1876 Washington street, was shot
and killed lastnight in her own parlor by Major
Thomas i. White, about so years of age of
Mississippi, who had been boarding with DR..
Hobbs, and was under medical treatment.
1t does not appear that there were any suspi-
cions of his design on the life of Mrs. Hobbs
until about the time he shot her Two shots
were fired from a revolver, the second one enter
ing the woman's left breast. Her death was
instant. The murderer waslimmedately arrested
Mrs. Hobbs became acquainted with White at
the South, and through her infatuation he en-
deavored to obtain her affections, failing in
which. he shot her. The murdered woman was
the second wife of the doctor, and was thirty
five years of age.
An examination of the room Of the murderer
after his arrest revealed scene of the widest
disorder. Books and papers were scattered
about in every direction, and innumerabe letters
were found in partially consumed condition.

During the absence of the family yesterday,

A NIGHT OF TERROR.
A Kansas Town Demolished by a Hurricr

a Kansas Town Demolished by n Hurricane.
The Lawrence (Kan) JOurnal of July 80 gives the
following particulars of the destruction by hurri-
cane OF the town of Kansas in that State:-
The storm that passed over Lawrence Tuesday
evening will long be remembered by our citizens,
not particularly Tor the severity of the wind and fall
of rain, it will be for the unusual and almost
tinuous glare of electricity that filed the atmo-
sphere. The heavens seemed to have been lit up
with one continual blaze of electricity, and the
otherwise dark night was more brilliant than if illu-
minated by the Ground laughing moon" The thun-
more spasmo iic-it seemed well enough satisfied
with staying of at a distance and indulging in one
incessant growl, like an angry lion. No damage was
sustained near Lawrence that we have heard Of
The fury Of the storm had been spent be-
fore it reached our city, but northwest
and west of Lawrence in some places it
was terrific, especially where it reached the head
waters Of the Kansas river. Messrs. Thomas
Thompson and S. N. Beman, who reached this city
on Wednesday evening from the West, informs us
that they stopped on Tuesday night at Detroit, q
small town about six miles east Of Abilene, on the
Kansas Pacific Road, and that about nine O'Clock
the storm burst forth upon that devoted village in
all its fury. The thunder aud lightning terri
tc, and the wind swept past, a perfect hurricane
The station is known on the railroad map as Lambs
Point, but town has just started up whtch was
named Detroit. Some eight or ten houses had
already been built and a number of persons were
camped on the town site, who were living in their
tents until they could put up temporary dwellings.
Every house in the village with one exception, was
entirely destroyed; furniture, bed, and bedding
were scattered over the prairie and lost and de-
stroyed Fortunately no one received any serious
INJURY, aIInOuRn nulnDer were sNBnJly injured
People were compelled to stand out on the prairie,
after the buildings were blown away,
and endure the terrOrs of the hur-
ricane and the pitess pelting OF rain and
hail. Only two families had secured anything like a
shelter from the storm, and one of these did so by
taking refuge in cellar after the building had
been demolished, and by this means secured par
tia shelter from the fury of the elements. Those
in tents Jared better than those in houses Although
the tents blew down, yet they fell upon the occu-
pants, and thus saved them from severe pelting.

in escaping, and the party returned home. When the
facts were known the widest excitement prevailed

the whole country, aud found six men

kept in constant terror by the Hildebrand gang.
In order to obtain Information concerning the haunts

necessary to frighten ami torture persons who were

refused to divulge the secret Several men, said to

Special Despatch 10 The EDentng Telegraph.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-The seizure OF the Spanish
gunboats at New York yesterday was not under
direct authority from this city, though il was not
unknown to the Secretary Of State and other MEM
bers Of the Cabinet Some time ago It was deter
mined that the gunboats building at New York for
Spain should not be allowed to leave American wa
crs, If any preteXt color OF law could be found
for OBTAINING them. The President has all along
been hostile to their being built in our ports and on
one occasion expressed the opinion that he did not
think they would get to sea when finished
IL Will be remembered that the Spanish
Minister complained to Secretary Fish that
the irOn-Clads purchased from our Gov
ernment by Peru were intended to be used
against Spain in Spanish waters, whereupOn
Mr.. Fish answered him by pointing to the contract
entered into by the Peruvian government that the
rOnClads were not to he used against tanygOvernment
at peace with us. The new Peruvian Minister, NJ
Freyre has since his arrival here been busy looking
after the Spanish gunbOats, and for this purpose has
spent most OF his time at New York. He has an idea
that they are TO be used against Peru as well as Cuba
Since Peru has recognized Cuba, the Spanish Gov
ernment has regarded the old quarrel as renewed,
for there has been peace declared; though ac-
count Of having so much trouble on hand, Spain
could not resume active hostltes against Peru. 1t
is understood, therefore, that the Peruvian Minister
States Marshall which led to the seizure of the gun
boats
If the Spanish Minister enters into bonds that the
gunbOats shall not be used against any power with
which the United States is at peace, they will pro-
baby be released,
