THE LECTURE.-Father Bouchard,
in his lecture IN Thursday evening,
proved himself all that his strongest
admirers have reported him to be.
He took a, the basis of his discourse
the words OF our Saviour to Peter:
"On this rock will 1 build my church,"
etc. For exceeding beauty of IAN
@uage. and poetic imagery, the equal
Of his discourse has perhaps never
been delivered in Carson. The lee
tUrer evinced not only deepknOwledge
in eccte>iastic lore, but also a thorough
acquaintance with ancient history, re-

His delivery a somewhat
HOMOGENEOUS. The same discourse de-
lIvereI by Father BoUchard when i'll

If the Territorial Council and Assem-
bly, have laid and made the plans for
State Government; and around the
pid place have stood some OF the
brightest intellects of WashOe i'll the {

would find the walk a hard road to
