TAKING THE WHITE VEIL.

Reception mt the Convent of the Good
Shepherd. Ninetieth Street, East
River-Five Young Ladies Receive the
White Veil. @
At that w1tchtng hour OF the morning when the
fashionable world half opens It's eyes, yawns turns
itself upon its downy pillow and woos the soft
influence OF sleep TO soothe the pieasure-wearied
eyelids to fresh repose, the devout nuns have fn-
ished their prisons and turned from their simple
morning meal to the duties OF the day. Yesterday
the monotony OF the conventual life was again
broken BY one OF those imposing scenes that at
each repetition nlls the religious soul with re-
newed ardor and increases the community OF soul
saving laborers In the vineyard OF the Lord. AS
the superlors OF the different houses OF the Good
Shepherd In the United States ana Montreal are
about to embark for a short sojourn In France,
they most appropriately selected this as the most
fitting time in which to bestow the veil OF the
noviate upon those postulants who had passed o
satisfactory postulate in the converts attached TO
the New York Provincial house.
The affairs having been decorated with lovely
array OF both natural and artificial flowers, with
numerous tapers cleaning amid the floral gems
Ike tiny stars, the religious all clothed In their
white mantles and bearing lighted candles en-
tered the chapel and took their places In their
stalls. The Lady Prioress aud her assistant con-
Quoted the five postuants TO the open grating
before the altar where they knelt upon carpet
spread there only for such an occasion. The choir
then sang the lave Maris Stella" ana at Its con-
clusion the celebrant gave each OF the postulants
lighted candle, telling her to receive 1t as
"symbo OF the celestial lightv to which Jesus
Christ calls those whom He withdraws from the
world OF darkness The Ofllciant then intoned the
"veni Creator spiritus, which the choir took up
and sung 10 Its close The oiiicant continued the
ceremony by asking OF each p0stuanE "My daugh-
ter what do you ask % and each one replied that
she solicited the 'habit OF this holy house,"
and the favor to be tried In the practice
OF all CHRISTIAN virtues and In the observances Of
the rules and constitution. After o prayer, In
which nc thanked God for thus inspiring them In
their happy choice the o1ciant asked II they per-
severed IN TINS demand, and, being answered that
tney renewed II and hoped for grace to persevere
IN their selection OF this state OF life, they retired
from the chapel to lay aside the white dresses and
the moving gauzy wells OF the world, ana to take
In their stead the white serge habit and white

Speaking OF the new currency bill, the

provisions, and its probable effect upon
Business. We have, therefore, nothing
