member his many personal sacrifices. You
will remember his bright and exem plary vir-

You will remember him in your homes, in the
bosom of your families. You will remember
him at the altar, where all around you are the
evidences Of his unfagging zeal, his beautiful
taste, and his sincere love Of the house of God.
He will take his place among the saint and
martyrs and apostles. You will no more look
upon his paternal and beauteous countenance,
in your memories. He died within the octave
of the festival of All Saints, and his mind was
then there. Let us devoutly hope and trust
that the spirit of the departed Bishop. is now
with All Saints, and may we all so live that
our last end shall be like unto his.
At the conclusion Of the Archbishop's dis
course, the bishops were vested in stole and
cope, after which they proceeded to the cata-
falque upon which the remains reposed, where
the solemn ceremony off absolution was per-
formed. The body was then conveyed to the
vault beneath the chancel, and as it was borne
down the broad aisle the grief of the assembled
multitude was too violent to be depressed. s.The
eyes that ache, the hearts that mourn" it
were impossible to number in that bereayed
congregation. t-=l
The procession moved as follows:

Remains Of deceased Prelate.
The mou-nful procession passed down the
centre aisle, and the organ gave forth its most
sympathetic tones, and the great Cathedral
bell tolled its melancholy requiem, the priests
meanwhile chanting the Benedictus. The pa
geant passed into the street and through the
chapel entrance, the Sisters filing into the
chapel, the priests dividing to each side, and
allowing the remains of the distinguished and
lamented deceased to pass through to the vault,
where Bishop Laughliu performed the final
services, after which the clergy departed, and
Father Bradley remained to see the casket
properly placed and the vault sealed. Thus
were concluded the memorable obsequies Of the
highly respected and honored Bishop, whom
to know was to love, to name was to praise

The past twelve months at tie Waltham Watch
Factory have been the busiest in the Companys his
tory. Several wholly new stem winding watches
have been produced and great improvements have
been effected in the manufacture of all variety OF
their standard watches, until they include every
size in both key and stem winding, that can be de-
sired, of every quality and OF every price. Al 'ne
same time new inventions in machiDe~' anu o'A'-
large economics, have cheapp- 'he cos'' so 'h'' '
present it is not too .c tie claim that the Waltham
Watches 40 the best and cheapest watches in the
World. These claims are in fact, almost everywhere
admitted. In this country 1t is matter of fact that
hardly any fine American Watches are gold but those
of the Waltham make, while orders are now regu-
larry received from England, Australia and the Brit
ish Possessions generally and foreign countries are
abandoning the hand made productions of Switzer-
land aud England, and eagerly adopting American
machine made Waltham watches in their place.
Buyers of silver watches should be careful to OBJ
serve the stamp of the Company the case, well

conscious OF Gne TAX ne was I'LL posing
upon himself, but felt irresistibly i'm
PEELED to the service. He was Frustrated, and
his condition grew more critical. Temporal ry
rallying spells and relapses superyened, and
were frequent up to the time of his departure
for home. When arrived in Brest 1 was in
expressibly shocked at the change that had
taken place in the Bishops condition. He did
not look like the same man, and l had grave
apprehensions thai he would not be able to
stand the trial of the ocean voyage. The ply
sicians however, advised me to take him out of
the hospital and run the risk of the voyage.
| Said the Bishop: 81 must go; to stay behind
| would break my heart" On the voyage, day
after day we feared would be his last, and as l
sat by his side I could see scarcely any grounds
for hope that he would behold the morning
| sun. But with the most careful nursing he
| was permitted to reach the shore with some
little remnant Of life, where he was placed
under the tender care OF the kind Sisters of
| st. Vincent's in New York, where on the fol
lowing day he calmly breathed his last.
Although not permitted to reach his home to
die, We should be dsvoutly thankful that
dissolution did not take place at sea, with the
| painful necessity of committing his body to
the deep, and that his precious remains could
be brought home and laid to rest amid the
| prayers and tears of his dearly beloved. :.
| On taking my departure from Brest FOL
| Rome, the Bishop confded to my keeping the
| generous offering OF his people to the Holy
Father, saying that it was the heartfelt offer
| ing OF his diocese, ana asking acceptanCe ant
the apostolic benediction thereupOn. The of
fering was duly presented, and was commits
stoned to be the bearer of a message from the
Holy Father to you, expressive of his heartfelt
| thanks and apostolic benediction.
1 will not detain you to enter into detail ir
regard to the life.work of the deceased. He
informed me that he was born in the city Of
New York, over sixty years ago. He was edu
Gated in that City and in the College of Mon
treal, finishing his studies in Baltimore. Afte
his conservation in New York he was placed
over the church at Utica, and subsequently, a
Ogdensburg. where his position was very re
sponsible and laborious, and where he did ex
cellent service. He was translated from Og
densburg to Brooklyn, where his strenuous eft
forts were successful in finishing the beautiful
church OF Mary, Star of the Sea. In the. yea
1855 he became the first Bishop of the dioces
of Portland, where he has ever shown an in
domitable zeal and energy of mind and bod,
that nothing could ntimidate. He shranl
from no hardship He allowed himself no res!
He was always busy, affording himself few
hours for sleep, and no indulgences, not evel
those that are considered harmless. His fru
galty, self-denial and self-sacrifce were won
