Against expenditure in honor OF the
dead, Heaven has uttered no prohibition,
and earth is not injured, but benefited by
them. All those beautiful embiems which
adorn the many tomhs around which we
love to llnger, assure uS we are in a world
of warm and loving hearts. The adjoining
of the sepulchrcs OF the .loved ones' allie
vintcs our grief and soothes the wounded
heart. II also cheers the bcreaved to know
that an additional embellishments OF the
grave presents stronger attractions to ar
rest the attention of the stranger. and
causes him to pause and learn the name OF
one who has shared so largely In the love
of others.
We have not discharged the Office ot
friendship and affection which we owe to
tho departed, when we have consigned
their remains to the tomb, amid the So
IDENTITIES which the OCCASION demands.
There are other duties which we owe them,
which, If neglected, will seriously reflect
upon our piety as Christians.
TO give them \ Christian burial Is simply
duty-to cherish their memory is mark
Of esteem. There is desire Implanted in
MI humanity to be remembered by the liv-
ing, when they shall sleep in the dust.
There can he no expenditure of labor or OF
means t,iat will more richly compensate
mankind than that which Is bestowed up-
on the sepulchres OF our departed.
Attractive and beautiful cemeteries Will
assist our piety and promote the refinement
and elevation OF society. II Is abundantly
manifest from the many testimonials that
kind feelingsarc fostercd and that the most
tender recollcctiOns of them linger In the
minds of the living. This Is illustrated by
those cities of our many dead, Greenwood,
Cave Hill, Mount Olivet, Mount Auburn,
Laurel Hill, and many other attractive
places, where the efforts of the living are
to perpetuate the memory of those that
they have loved.
The erection of Marble Is the last work OF
respect which we pay to the memory of de-
parted friends. IL is n custom which has
been followed from the reinotest ages OF
antiquity. We can Judge OF the advance
ment of civilization by the promotion OF
art, and there is no higher type of art than
that which is displayed in our American
cemeteries.

CONGREGATION ALsAUE.LORRAINE.

A number OF natives Of Alsace and Lorraine met
together last evening at Mehl's Assembly Rooms,
in Seventh avenue and Twenty-sixth street. to form
a congregation Of orthodox Israelites under the
above title. Mr.. Joseph Strauss presided, and Mr..
Henri Calm was secretary for the occasion. This
was the second meeting Of the Alsatians,
and at their previous meeting subsorip-
tons amounting to $500 were announced.
Last night 500 additional, or $1,000
altogether, were reported toward the completion of
the organization. After a free discussion of mat
ters the nucleus OF congregation was formed, and
MI. A. Wetdenschag was elected president, Mr..
Joseph Strauss, secretary, and committee, consist
ing OF Messrs. Henri Calm, S. Weidenschag, b.
Samucls and the President and Secretary, was ap-
pointed to draft q constitution and bylaws for
the new congregation, and to report the same
TO the society nj its next meeting four weeks hence.
They are commissioned also to secure IL they can,
the services OF an orthodox rabbi and to bring him
along to the next meeting. 1t is understood
that they have their eye on one already in
The city. Short and pertinent remarks were
made by the officers elect pedglng them
selves to maintain to the best or their
ability orthodox Judaism, and declaring at the
start that they have faith in and no desire for
reform in the religion of their fathers. The meet
ing adjourned confident of its success and deter
mined to carry out their purpose to the letter.
Their next meeting will probably find them in pos
session OF u hall OF worship and OF a rabbi.

A POOR MARKSMAN.

Joseph Conner, residing at % Lamartine place,
yesterday morning appeared before Justice Cox at
Jefferson Market, and preferred q complaint Of
felOnious assault against Jerry Johnson, OF $50
Ninth avenue Conner states that about halfpast
three O'Clock yesterday morning he was seated at
the corner OF Twenty-seventh street and Sixth
nue., In conversation with James and Patrick
McCree, OF 300 Tenth avenue, when the prisoner
passed with an intoxicated woman. He had
scarcely passed the corner when he drew
revolver from his pocket and, point
ing 1t at Conner, fred the ball whiz-
zing past his head, fattening out against the
brick wall behind him. He cooked his pistol the
second time and snapped It, but the weapon,
through some unaccountable means, refused to be
discharged. After making the second attempt on
COnn0r's life he started on run toward Seventh
avenue but was pursued by the trio and finally
captured by Ofcer Curtis OF the Twenty ninth pre-
cinct. He stated In his own defence that while
passing the corner some one OF the party insulted
his companion, which was resented by firing his re-
vOlver at them. Justice Cox did not deem this
SUFFICIENT justification to warrant Johnson in at
tempting to take COnnor's life, and committed him
In default OF s. 900 to appear for trial.

Sermon by Father McQuadc-An Imita-
ton of Christ Necessary to Salvation.

Sermon by Father McQuadc-An Imita-
ton Of Christ Necessary to Salvation.
In ST. Peters church. Jersey City, sermon was
preached at halfpast ten O'Clock mass by Father
McQuade A. j., from the gospel OF the day, setting
forth the miracle performed by Christ on the deaf
and dumb man. From this miracle we
learn the efficacy Of the prayers OF
others addressed to the throne of God. When the
poor man mentioned In the Gospel was brought to
Christ, He listened to the supplications of those
who had compassion on the sufferer. Every one Of
us should be able to say, as did the people men.
toned in the Gospel, ''He hath done all things
wel.r We are all obliged to initiate our Saviour,
for this imitation Is
NECESSARY TO SALVATION.
There is no hope of salvation to any one who
does not bear resemblance to the Saviour. Christ
himself expressly tells us, 81 am the Way the
Truth and the Life No. man n, can cSorSS to the
upon all her children to walk In the
footsteps of their Lord and Master. She sets
the mysteries OF His life constantly before them
Why was IL that our Lord was born so Obscurcly
and that he suffered so much for us This was not
necessary for our salvation. 1t was to teach us
that we must be meek and humble OF heart. His
life was perfect
DISPLACEMENT FROM EVERYTHING EARTHLY.
He calls upon all his children to detach them.
selves from the things OF this world. Saint Paul
tells us that Christ became poor In order that we
might be made rich. Should we, who are dust and
ashes, seek to be honored to enjoy the comforts
of lile and pursue sensual enjoyments when we see
our Saviour Inundated, prosecuted despised and
reproached Christ IL our only hope, for there Is
NO OTHER NAME UNDER HEAVEN
by which we can be saved. He tells us that those
who suffer with Him shall ALSO be glorihed with
Him. The imitation Of the life Of Christ Is as neces
sary to salvation as the observance or His com
mandmens. We should therefore study In all our
actions to keep before the life of Christ, that
may obtain the prize Of eternal happiness which He
has promised to all who follow Him In this life.

by Hanging-Taken Into Custody and
Plays the Insane Trick.

BINGHAMTON, n. T. August 8, 1877
The town of vesta, in Broome county, has been
thrown into intense excitement by a somewhat un.
usual sensation. About two weeks ago man
named Luther Quney induced young girl named
osborn the daughter of Henry Osborn, OF vcstal,
to marry him. The girl was working away from
home, and her marriage was not known to her
parents They heard of 1t q day or so afterwsrd
and were content to lot matters alone, until they
found out that Quinley had another wife,
Then Mr.. Osborne prevailed upon his daughter to
leave Quinley and she was sent to her grand.
fathers. A day or two since Qulnley followed her
there and claimed her as his wife, and begged her
TO return 10 him. She refused to 90 without her
