ST.. PETERS CATHEDRAL.-Right Rev.
Bishop Gross, Of Savannah, Ga, who has
lately returned from. an extended trip
through Europe, delivered two highly in
teresting discourses at the Cathedral on
Sunday-a sermon in the morning at high
mass and lecture at night for the benefit
of the poor Of his diocese.
His sermon was eloqent and instructive.
He said it was remarkable fact that all
over the world philosophers and great men
were in every direction trying to grasp the
latent powers Of the earth, and that. not
withstanding the great inventions OF the
day, there was and would ever be great
wonders to unravel After showing the
greatness, and still the insignifcance, Of
these researches as compared with the work
OF the Almighty, he glided gracefully into
his subject by stating that there was pow
or greater than all these, and that power
was equally the possession OF the little
child and the sage whose powerful
intellect could study the most distant hea-
venly bodies; that power was the power Of
prayer. He developed his subject beauti-
fully, reciIing nulnberless examples Of the
miraculous intervention Of Providence
which had been elected by the power Of
prayer; and concluded with the assurance
that il his hearers would only knock the
door would be opened unto them, and that
by heartfelt and never-ceasing prayer they
would receive innumerable iavors AWKWARD
OF disasters. XVI ........
!. The choir rendered very effectively that
masterpiece of Haydn's, his Second Mass.
At night the Bishop delivered his lecture,
which was an interesting recital OF his
travels in Europe, to large audience.

THE THEATRE-MR. FIGHTER AS CLAUDE
MELSoTTE.- Though the day had been bad
and people were forced to walk on ice last
night the house was full, and for the first
time for many a night we saw an actor cali
ed before the curtains IN the entre-dcte.
Our Richmond audience is schooled to a
conventional Claude, which time-honored
individual this great artist has little respect
for, and with his accustomed grand audacity
threw aside entirely in his rendition. The
conyentionalities Of the stage find little
chance with him, and his grace is that OF
nature, not of the boards. His accent loses
what there is of disagreeable in ii when we
begin to feel the powerful influence OF q
resonant and sympathetic voice, perfectly
trained. He seems to be particularly fond
of the high Infections, and makes those
tones wonderfully effective.
At the end Of the third act he
was enthusiastically applauded and called
before the curtain; the same at the end Of
the fourth, and at the tableauX which closed
the fifth the applause was rapturous, the
audience being convinced that they had
seen the only real Claude Melnotte, and
done by, a grand actor.
Miss Price acted beautifully. She has a
splendid personal appearance, and always
shows the delicate taste Of lady.
Ruy Bias, which will be given tonight, is
one Of Fechter's great parts, and we heart
lily commend it to all theatre-goers as per-
Torrance which should not be missed.
