He wae a prominent Fenian—a circumetance which ex- cluded bis remains from being received im the Catholic church of the village. Arrangements bad been made for the funeral services in the church, when a telegraphic dispatch was re- ceived from the bishop, the tenor of which is not known; but as the reverend father in charge, who was a warm friend of the deceased, declined to open the building for the ceremony, itis supposed the bishop refused his sanction to the occupation of the charch for the purpose stated. From this it would erem that the heads of the Romish Church are determined in their opporition to Fenianism in this country. Ropsery or A Bank PorTee.—An mge- nious and successful robbery of a bank parler was committed in New York on Friday jast. The circumstances run as follows: Officer Herman Steliges, of the Twenty. eighth Precinct, was on patrol duty in Carmine street, when he was accosted by & maa attired in a full suit of the regulation Metro; an Police unifotm, who informed him that had been detailed to effect the arrest of a noted counterfeiter, and that probably the troi- man’s aefistance would be required. Belewing the statement, Steliges agreed to lead any Sesistance required. While they were con- versing the unknown man directed the officer attention to a man who carried a tin box on hi arm, passing down the street on the opposite ride, ielling him that was the suspected man, but that it would not do to arrest bim then, as be was merely going to a houge to obtain a fresh supply of counterfeit mon®y, and that be would return with it in a few minutes. Halt an bour had scarcely elapsed before the man returped, still carrying the tin box. When he came up tothe officer, he was at once ar- rested on the charge of having counterfeit money in his possession, which was, however, stoutly denied by bim. On hie making some slight resistance, the strange officer slipped a pairof handcuffs over his wrists, telling the sam to tnke the prisoner to the station- and bave bim locked up, at the same ime saying he would tae the box and its con- tonte over to the headquarters and make a re- port. The patrolman, who is a German, and Lut arecent addition to the police force, very olisbly complied with the instructions of die pown man. Asa matter of course, when the offcer reached the station-house he could not substantiate the charge, and the prisoner wns, for the first time, allowed to make an ex- lanation : He stated that bis name was Thomas Quina, and that he bad been, for over five years, in the cmploy of the Greenwich Savings Bank, situ- ated on the corner of Wayerly-place and 6th avenue. That he bad been in the dailyhabit of proceeding to the Green wich Bank of this city, situated on the corner of Clarkson and Hudson streets, for the ey of making te of checks and cash, and receiving for his bank large sums of money in small denominations for paying over the counter. Healso stated that there was in the cash box, at the time of his arrest, £3,000 in United States Treasury and Netional Bank notes, in ones, twos and fives. So far no success has attended the efforts of the police to discover the successful perrona- torof a Metropolitan policeman, he baving covered his tracks so well that the scent bas been lost for atime. The detectives, however, express &n unwavering belief that their inves. tigations will reeult in the discovery and arreet of the thief, if not in recovering the stolen bonds.

The manufacture of the cable will be undertaken by the Telegraph Uabie Conetruction Company.
