The con- vention will be composed of many of the most distinguished statesmen and brightest intellects of the nation. The wigwam, in which the sessions of the convention are to be held, was nearly com- pleted on Saturday evening. It has a front of 146 feet upon Girard avenue. The front istwo stories high, and will have twelve large win. dows and five doors. The doors to the galleries are at the east and west ends of the front. The main entrance leads intoa vestibule twelve feet wide and forty feet long, terminating at the lobby and opening into the ampitheatre. This space will seat about three thousand persons. It is semi-circular in the front, and terminates by square angles at the south end.

His father miss- ing him, instituted a search, assisted by some of the neighbors, but a day passed and no clew to him bad been found. The people of the vil- lage became greatly excited on the subject, and the second day a hundred men volunteered to explore the woods. Still they did not find him, The next day two hundred, and the next day after that three hundred men on foot and on horseback continued the search, and at Jength one squad of them came suddenly upon him in the heart of the wood, six miles from the vil- lage. He bad subsisted on berries four days and fonr nights. A procession of the neighbors who had assisted in the search was formed, und the boy was escorted in trinmph into the village. ®?7 Asa passenger was leaning ont ofa car window at Norwalk depot, a seedy individual nthe outside, just as the train started, ex- coanged hats with him. obtaining anew cas- tor in place of a dilapidated glazed cap, which he ceolly placed upon his victim’s head, and walked off.

Our unhappy civil war, al- though it separated State from State, and family from family, and brother from brother, did t weaken the unity of the Uatholic Church, destroy that Christian charity which has ever been one of the most distinguishing marks im ecclesiastical matters of tbe “Honeehold of Faith.” “But, althongh it be not necessary for the Prelates of the Catholic Church in the United States to ascembie together to rennite the links of broken unity, yet there area jarge number of important practical questions affecting the discipiine of the church and its greater effi- some of them growing out of the present condition of things, which need to be ciency, determined and enforced. “The Council about to be held will undoubt- edly be a very important one in its influence on the future progress and stability of the holy religion of the country. “You will therefore call the attention of the people under your pastoral care, in a particn- lar manner, to this most important event. “The Friday immediately preceding the opening of the Council (Friday, 5th of October) Will be observed as a day of fasting. “On the festival of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and on all the Sundays following, until the end of the Council yeu Will recate with your people at the end of the Parochial Muss the Litany of the Saints and you wili exhort them to approach the Sacra- ments during this time, andin pee and Almighty He will senda gTaces upon the Fa- thers assembled in council, that so all they do to the glory ot God, the extension of His holy faith, and the private devotions earnestly to beg o' God, “the Father of lights,” that down His most abundant and determine upon may be ealvation of souls. “Given at Newark, this 6th day of August, the Festival of the Transfiguration of our Lord, A.
