Dedication of the Union Church at
Langley.

Langley.
On Sunday, The 9th inst, the above
church was dedicated. The company,
much to their credit, have erected a beau
tiful cdilice for the use OF the operatives
of Langley Factory As there a%re.vari-
Gus denominations in the village, none
~sich is able to sustain q separate
chnr11 organization, the company have,
in true Catholic spirit, met the wants OF
all by erecting this building. The day
was fine, and the vili'ge looked as if
decorated in it's Sunday attire. Large
numbers from all tho neighborhood as
packed to its utmost capacity, benches
and chairs being placed III every availa-
BILE space.
The dedicatory services were conduct
ed by Rev DR.. Irvine. Of Augusta. as
sisted by L :. JOHN Il Dow and Rev.
Mr. Jones, Methodist), Dr.. Irvine read
the prayer OF Solomon at the dedication
OF the temple, and the I'd chapter OF
kphesiarlS from the 18th to the 22d verse.
no chose for his text Psalm 81. l, GLOW
amiab!e are Thy ~tabernaclcs, o, Lord -
The theme was that the House of God is
attractive to the Christian, for which the
preacher assigned five reasons, set forth
in Dir. lrvine's most masterly manner,
and with such zeal and heartfelt earnest
ness that the love OF those that waxed
faint YVES rekind!ed, and that most sol
emn and imperative command Of the
Most High, reverence Me in My SAM
tuary," proclaimed itself as a fundamen-
tai precept Of our religion. The dis
course was listened to by the large audi
ence with the most marked interest. DR..
Irvine offered the dedicatory prayer aE-
ter the sermon, and the congregation was
dismissed by singing "Rock of Ages"
and the Apostolic benediction.-.iUguS
