CHANCE FOR NEW SENSATrON.-A great dis
covery has been made in Scotland. It seems
that an old house is in process of beiug de-
molished in Dundee, and that this house WAS
formerly in the possession of Franciscan nuns.
We take the following account Of the awful
discovery from the Dundee Adrert;ser--
cat the bottom of an old well on the east
side of the ruins, and near what were once
the cloisters whore the sisters used to walk.
there has been found the front part of q human
skull. The bono is not much decayed, but the
teeth are gone, with tho exception of two.
we'll is . collar-bone, on which time has had
more effect than on tho skull. The skull is not
large, and some who have seen it say it is that
e q sa II and Is IF But
and another, that the skull is that of full
grown woman, f. moro likely to be correct.
How these remains were placed who're they
have now been found 10 mystery. There are
those who think that the mere fact of the skull.
having been found in tho well is sufficient to
prove that long ago the nunnery was the scene
OF o murder, and that the body of the nnfor-
tunate victim was consigned to the we'll. It
10 expected that before the ruins have been
fully explored moro that is interesting may be
disentOmbed, A part of what is supposed to
have been secret stair has been uncovered in
one of the rooms close to what was an ordinary
staircase. It seems, however, to have been
o or built and as as yet the
indeed to anything else than a stone wall.
Now there is quite volume in the above
says the Universe. The "consign-
ing the body of the victim to tho we'll" is
not, however, very original. Even Miss Brad
don has not copy wright in that agreeable |
idea; We remember long before Lady |
murderers in London Bishop, Williams, and |
May,) killed an italian boy that way. 1t is eA-
pected that more discoveries" will be found. |
We have no doubt of it, especially if a good
market is found for the bones already eds |
covered" 1t SO happens, however, that since |
the nuns were expelled, the house has been in
habited by several representatives of the nu-
merons Protestant sects, with which Scotland
has been blessed for the last three centu-
ries, and that perhaps after all the bones may
not have been placed in the we'll by "crnel
Papists." While the glorious trio we have
named above have their hands in, they may
also investigate the fact that some bones have
been found this week in Charles Street, Clerk
cnwell. Three policemen have tried and have,
strange to say, failed to unravel this latter
mystery. Now in oden times there were mo-
naste institutions in Clerkenwell. Perhaps
people died then, and perhaps they were buried
We think that both discoveries" ought to
come before Parliament, SO that Scotch and
English bones might receive equal attention
from the select committee on monastic institu-
tions

STATUE OF ST. PETER.-On a recent ocea-
sion very interesting ceremony took place ut
the Church of Notre Dame de France, Leices-
ter Square, London. The event was the inau-
guraton of q life-size statue in bronze of st.
Peter the Apostle-beiDg an exact copy of the
famous statue in st. Peters at Rome. We take
from local paper the following particulars of
the ceremony:
The statue is the gift of that true-hearted
Irishman, the late Charles Moore, Esq, M. p,
and was executed in Rome. On being asked
to enrich the statue with indulgences, bis Hp
illness expressed his desire to encourage devo-
ton 20 st. Peter in London. He took the foot
in his hand, kissed it with greattaffectiOD, bless
ed it, and bestowed on those who kiss IL the
same indulgences as are attached to the famous
statue in the Vatican Basilica. After High
Mass, the Right Rev. DIR. Morris, BishoP OF
Troy, preached an eloquent Sermon exhorting
his audience to renewed devotion to st. Peter,
and the Holy See, they having received 80 spe-
cial mark of the Pontffs affection. A col
lection was made in aid of the Peter's Pence
fund The ceremony closed with the Benedic-
ton of the Most Blessed Sacrament.
