ST. MARY's CHURCH.-The service
at ST. Mary's Church were again we'll
attended last night when Father Par.
dow, of Washington, delivered his third
sermon of the series for the benefit Ct
the sodalities, into which members will
be received tonight. At last nights
service Father Pardow referred to the
growing Indifference of men to mat
tiers of religion. He stated that he him
self had seen seven Catholic
Churches in New York city torn
down, &C 10 longer useful, TO
make way for more lucrative sky
scrapers. lNThe Catholics, he said, never
sell their churches, but where they
build they remain. qHe attributed the.
Indifference of many men TO the want
ofde6ni;e religious doctrine. Business
men have not time to study the Bible
and pick out their rel 'gion for them
selves. If Christ wished busy people
to believe he must have established
somewhere an institution to teach with
authority. The subject for this even.
ing is "Do Catholics adore the Blessed
Virgin2" Father Pardow invited the
people to bring their Protestant friends.
There will be reception after the ser
mon into the Sodality OF the Blessed
Virgin. Father Pardow is a most inter.
esling speaker aud al who have at
tended these services have enjoyed an
intellectual trea'.

One of Major Tylcr's Jokes.

10 the Editor Of the Alexandria Gazette,
/ am democrat and supporter of
Major Tyler and the rest of the Roam
oke ticket, but this does not prevent
the disgust excited by one of his
"jokes" in the address delivered in
Alexandria Saturday night. If there
is one serious subject more than an
other that should be exempt from ludi-
crous association, it is the resurrection
of the material body, in, which all
Christian people-and probably many
besides-believe, and our candidate for
governor shocked and displeased not
few by his wretched pleasantly in con-
nectioO with it. Some f!ieLd ought to
advise hin rot to use it again 10 the
campaign, unless he wishes to give Of
fence to ull Levers Of

A DOUBLE CRIME.-A dispatch from
Norfolk says: Prince Johnnsakin, color
ed, is being tried at Winion for dou-
BILE crime, in which John Freeman and
Land Daugherty are implicated. He
is charged with criminal assault, and
also with murder. Feeling runs so
high against the negro and Freeman,
the OILY one of the white men who
has been arrested, that they are being
guarded during the trial 10 prevent
lynchiuS The impression is that John
maxim will suffer the extreme penalty
of the law, and Freeman may be found
parliceps crimipi7, for he and Daugh-
erty, it is alleged, instigated the crime.
The men had had some difficulty with
Simpson Pierce, who resides at Tunie,
and had sent the negro to demand q
settlement with him. Mrs. Simpson
ordered the man away from her prem
Uses, but the defenseless woman, it is
charged, was assaulted by the negro n
her own house, and as her husband az
preached; 10 answer to her cries for
help, the negro, it Is alleged, seized the
mans own gun and shot him dead ss
10 entered the door. When Daugherty
heard of the crime he made good his
escape.
