teries and various ceremonies celebrated

the "Holy Week." the week OF SOr-
rows" and sometimes the Painful
Week." are some OF the names by which
Il was known IN ancient times. All these
names, however, have gone into disuse,
except that OF the "liOiy Week" y: and
this Is now the only name by which il H.
commonly known. The chief object Of
tho Church IN this week is TO celebrate the
memory, and passion, and death OF the
Redeemer.
The services in the Catholic Church are
more solemn and more multiplied in this
week than in any other during the whole
wear, and are most especially adapted TO
excite i'm the hearts Of the faithful those
varied sentiments OF love and gratitude, oi
compassion for the suferings OF the si-
yiour, and OF sorrow and detestation OF
sin, &C., which every Christian ought 10
cherish in this holy season.
The principal services will take place AZ
st. Peters Cathedral, commencing to-mor-
row-HOly Thursday-at 3 \. NJ, when
Pontical High Mass will be celebrated by
Right Rev. Bishop Keane. The blessing
OF holy oils and chrism is performed during
this Mass, which ceremony is participated
i'm by all the priests of the diocese who are
present. Two hosts are consecrated-one
for the sacrifice Of this day and the other
TO be carried in procession TO the reposito-
nv prepared expressly for the purpose.

Centenary Chimes.

II will lie remembered that some time
AGO a chime OF bells was given to the Cen
tcnary Methodist church, and that these
chimes were known rs the A" Talbot
chimes" and that, having been placed in
position, they failed to answer the pur-
noses for which they were intended. Ac-
cordngly they were sent back. and the
manufacturing company agreed TO make
others. These last have arrived, and are
now being placed in position.
Tncy arr said TO DO tho fincst chino IN
the United Statcs-the largest weighing
1900 pounds and the smallest 200 pounds.
The reason alleged for the failure OF the
chime first sent here is said to be the chip
ping away Of part of the bells when they
were found not to accord; and IT Is said
that this cannot be done successfully, so
perfect is the mechanism and intent in the
construction of the bells.
The largest bell-the 4,0OO-pound one
is worked on the rotary-y0ke principle,
and the fricton-rolers are 30 admirably az
ranged that small boy can easily operate
the bell.
The bells will all be in position by
Easter SUNDAY, when their joyful note'
will call worshippers 70 Centenary church
for the first time. The changing and dis
cordant sound Of the chime to those who
reside i'm the immediate vicinity will be OBJ
waited by the Use OF patent muller which
has been introduced recently.
