Dr. Gillette read the 2d Psalm, and after siging the praise of God by the congregation. Rev George W. Samson, President of Colum. bian Coilege, offered up a fervent prayer. ‘The pastor of the church (Rev Dr. Gillette) introduced the speaker, stating that he came to (bis country from Burmah when 14 years old, with Birs. Ingles, a missionary in that coun- try. His name was Shaw Loo. He was called Mung Shaw Loo, because Mung meant, fn bis language, Mr. Rev. Dr. Hill made a tew preliminary re- snarks, in which he said that Shaw Loo was a mn of the interpreter of the celebrated mission- ary, Dr. Judson, the acts of whose life he re- viewed at some length. Mung Shaw Loo arose, saying that it atford- ed him ‘the greatest pleasure 10 speak te so tsrge and intelligent an audience upon the manners and customs of Burmah. The peo- ple of his country held toa religion which termed the grosses: idolatry, as false as man wwas able to invent, and full of superstition. Their Bible was composed of three books, written on palm leaves, and the inhabitants worshipped four (ods, represented by im- ages. He gave a short history of the first God, who, tradition has it, was thirty feet high, and with Bim died five hundred prie=ts| Another zod was looked for, ne said, by his deluded ountrymen, whose height they believed would be more than one hundred feet: his mouth seven and a half feet wide; nis hair seven and a half feet, and his teaching would be the be- stowal of good and kind acts by men one to. ward another. The only hope of his corner men in a future state was in obedienca to jaws and customs. The priests of the country while preachivg sit upon an rated seat, aolding a fan before them that they may not see their auditors, but they frequently look over it to get glances at the fair ones. The average height ot the men was five feet. that {the females something less. They did not hesitate to eat the flesh of animals which oad died of disease. They were quite ingenious in catching fish. A large dam was built, ana the stream between that and anoth- er dam was dried up, leaving the bed of the water course. They used no kmives nor forks tmeating, but their hands instead. Cooking ‘was done upon a low box about a yard square, and filled with earth. The whole weaith of the pation was invested in large and elegant structures built and dedicated to their Gods. The climate was mild, and there was no win. ter. The coldest weather was not colder than the weather in Washington at present. Both sexes of the inhabitants wore rings in their ears, and their hatr very leng. Instead of the x‘ssing process customary in this country the inhabitants place their mouths to the faces of one another and draw along breath through the nostrils as thoughsmellip, ‘ant flow- er, and instead of asking for akiss they would say “Give mea smell.” Few got married be- fore the age of 21 years. The marriage cere mony consisied of the male and female eating outof the same bowl. Polygamy is allowed and practiced. The corpses of deceased per- sons are burntand sometimes biown into the air by powder put into the coffim. Those who died under the age of 15 years or, {rom epi- demics were buried. The last fifty years ‘ad wrought material changes in the po- ‘tical and civil government of his country, thongh they knew as yet nothing of & government save an absolute monarchy, and knew but little of the gospel of Christ. Dr. Judson, when he tirst went to the coun- try, was thrown into prison, and threatened With death, because of his religion. Since the British conquest in the Island, the harbors, once vacant, are thronged with ships trom every country. At the present rate of ad- vancement, he said another balf century would place Burmah among the most enlight- ened nations of the earth. It would become changed from a nation of idolaters to one of ‘Ubristians, He bad resolved to devote ail the energies of his life towards the advancement of the doctrines ef Caristianity among 2 coun! the propagation of knowl- €@dge among the ignorant. Though he had come to America & poor boy, and bad worked his way up, and gained an education mostly by bis own efforte, he was willing to endure many more hardships for the good of his coun- trymen, to whom he hoped to introduce Christ and hie doctrines, Yet of himself he could do nothing—all bis strength was in the Lord. Though Be bad been in this country for some time, and bad formed great attachments to it, he rejoiced that he was going back to his own country, where be would meet with joy the iriends from whom he long since parted. Dr. Gillett stated that Shaw Loo was to be turnisbed by the President with a letter to the Emperor of Burman: who looked rulers of other countrirs as monarchs, or rather despots like himself, and therefore called them brothers; and that this letter from the President would introduce Shaw Loo to the Emperor as welles to hi3 court; Shaw Loo ‘was also to be furuished with ceeds from the Patent Office, which he would take to Burm: and obtain in excharge other seeds which ‘Would be sent to this country.

LAYING oF « CORNER Azone == ¥esiandag, afternoon, at four o’cloek, the corner-stone o! St. Ann’s Gacbolio Oburch, at Tennallytown, was laid, in tae presence of 8 very large nu! ber of —_ ‘he procession was formed short distance from church, headed by Rey. Father President of George- jown College; Rey. Father Jamison, of Trin- ity Cbarch, ; Rev. Father O’Cal- Inghan; of this city, and the choir of Georgetowa College. Upon arriving at the spot where the church is to be erected, Father Meguire offered up a prayer, after which he Diessed the stone, and after prayer it was put in its place. Father Maguire then delivered a very eloquent discourse, saying they were as- sembled for the performance of an important. religious duty, the laying of @ corner-stone for ‘the foundation of a Christian chureh, the most important event that could oceur, and it was gratifying to all, as Obristians, to see a corner- stone laid toa temple to be dedicated to God. Without religion there is no happiness on earth, ho matter bow many houses you may | own, or how much land you may amass, with- Out religion lite will be miserable. The speaker said his hearers may not understand Latin, in which language the ceremonies bad been con. cucted, he wished they did. Latin was not used to keep them in ignorance, but that the solemn service of the Catholic Ohurch may not undergo any change He wished eli could understand Latin, and explained the ceremonies of laying the stone in English. ‘The -ross, he said. is ‘he emblem under which the church saiis—it is the hope of the world, for Christ died. upon it to save all. The Obristian Churchloves thatemblem, and as it will save the world, it should be venerated. The stone is blessed, because it is the symbol of Christ, as He is the foundation of the church. God does not need any temple, for the world is His temple, and we can wor- ship Him in the fleld_under the broad canopy of Heaven, because He is there and every- ‘where; but in special places He has designed to have certain temples erected, and hence He shows His special tove to man. Solomon, he said, built a temple to God at His express will, and the very dimensions of that temple were marked out by God, and the vestments named, The object of the present church is to spread Teligion, and even Protestants Dave liberally given money to aid in its construction, and the reverend gentleman thanked them heartily, and sald the money thus given was deposited in the bank of God. He then referred to the nistory of the Cath- ehe Church, and hoped the children of the land would be trained up and religion taught them in order that their souls might be saved. If the church saved one soul, it was more im- portant than saving the whole world, for what does it profit a man it he gain the world and lose his own soul! He next referred to those who bad been bronght up to hate the Uatholic Church, and said they were mistaken when they asserted that it had been established for the Irich; for Americans and others were fast becoming converts. The speaker alluded to the Sisters of Charity, who went forward to the war, undergoing every privation and risk- ing their lives to save the deienders of the country, and their heroic deeds 1n those trying umes was one of the causes why the people of the United States now bad faith'in the Chureb and were coming within its folds. ‘The church fronts on the Rockville turn- Pike and the old military road, and will have | a front of 30 feet, rumming back 33 fect. The | height will be 26 feet, with 16 feet trom floor to ceiling.

Its followed by the holidays, which are seru- pulously observed by the Israelites in all parts of the world. The services in the synagogues on this day are of most solemn and impressive character, and are usnally of great length The prayers offered to the great Jehovah are | those of gratitude for the innumerable blessings bestowed upon His people during the past year, and supplicating their continuance during the coming year. It is also customary in this country for the Rabbi to deliver an address at the conclusion of the regular ser- vices in reference to the position of the Jewish People in the United States. This festival is considered among the Ierael- ites the most important of the festivals in their calendar. A peculiar feature of the service to- day will be the blowing of the shophar, whicb is followed by confessions and prayers appro- priate to the day. Om Rosh Hashana, (New ‘ear,) according to Jewish tradition, the Ure- stor decides who ts to live and who to die dur- ing the year, and the orthodox synagogues had & direct reference to this belief. In some Jew- ish places of worship the men wear shronds, but this custom has been abandoned by severai congregations, where innovation and religious reform are making rapid progress. In all of the large cities where there are synagogues the Tites are faithfully carried out On next Wednesday a week the Fam Kippur, the Day of Atonement, is the day on which every adult, male and female. totally abetains trom nourishment of every kind, trom sunset of one evening until sunset of the following day, remaining in their places of worship, the strictest ot the sect, until the end of the festi- val. while others return to their homes at night, and go to the synagogue eurly the next morning. Constant prayers and confessions of sins are made during this season. Ali youths thet are 13 years of age are required to abstain from food on the day of atonement, as well as those of more advanced years. Children under this age, only abstain for half a day. ——_e—_—__ ELECTION o¥ OrvIceRs.—At the stated meet ing of Western Mission Division No. 12, Sous of Temperance, held st the Hail on the corner of Pennsylvania avenue and 19th street, on Saturday, the tollowing were elected as offi- cers for the quarter commenging October ist, 167: ‘Thomas L.

The list of entries are the Greyhound, Augusta, Minnie Olarx, Brunette, Kate, George Harri- son, Robert E. Lee, and Perseverance, with the probability ofseveral others, whose owners are expected to reach here in time. A good selection of judges haye been made in the per- sonsof Dr. Hill, Dr. North, Capt. Stackpole snd Major Whyte, who will impartially ob- serve tlie progress of the regatta, and award the prizes to the most deserving compotitors. For the accommodation of the public, the Al- exandria steamers will remove their place of departure to Sixth street wharf, besides which either the steamer Wiunisimmet or Wawasett been chartered to carry persons the whole th of the regatta route, from this city to Fort Washington. On this oceasion the usual conditions gov- erning regattas will be observed, and will be read to the captains of boats previous to start- ing, atthe headquarters of the club, Sixth- street wharf, where boats must be entered at Jeast one hour previous to starting. Modifica- tons Dave been made in the rules previously observed so as to allow all boats an equal chance, regardlees of length or size. no allow- ance of time being made on account of length The oats will start from the stake-hoat off Six:h-stret wharf, rounding the staxe-boat off Fort Washington; returning, the first boat rounding the stake off Sixth-sireet whart wins the prize. This rule has been adopted for the Teasou that the smali boats have more than an equal chance where the dilference of time for Jength is allowed, a3 they can tuke advantage of the numerous flats and currents in our river, while the larger boats are obliged to Make a course in or near the channel. Much enthusia-m and interest is taken In the resnli of the race, and eyery effort of tne National Yacht Giuab will be used to ensure satisfac. tion THE KiveR Front, Se 30.-—The surface of 'ne Potomac was considerably raf. fled by a brisk northwest wind, thereby af- tording a favorable opportanity for vessels outward bound.
