Sunday being the day fixed forthe consecration of the new Catholic Church of St.,Peter’s,Staten Island, a large concourse of the principal inhabitants of the island, in addition to the congregation of the church, were in attendance from an early hour, all seeming anxious to witness a ceremony, which | is at all times imposing, and particularly interesting to every member of the Catholic community. The day was fine, and afforded an ample opportunity to the admirers of the “beauties of nature,” to feast the eye on all the rich, varied, and picturesque scenery, for which this beautiful retreat and its vi- cinity are justly celebrated. The New Brighton | boat left the wharf at eight o'clock, fully freighted with groups of persons from New York, Brooklyn, | aad even NewJersey. As the bout skimmed along the current, the company on board were loud in their rounded them, varying at every move of the boat, and quaffed the coo! and invigorating breeze fresh from the Atlantic with a rich gusto. On arriving at | the wharf, New Brighton, a procession was shortly formed by the members of the Temperance Society on the Island, who proceeded to the residence of the Catholic Rector of the Church, the Rev. Iupx- | pnonsus Meprano, to escort Bishop Hughes to the | new church. At 10 o'clock, the procession was formed, and a neat Temperance banner was hoisted, | when the procession moved towards the new edifice, The Bishop, his chaplain, and some of the Catholic the Rev. Ildephonsus Medrano, in a second carriage, | and all moved towards the new church; on arriving | by an immense concourse, and after dressing in his | cration, accompanied by his private chaplain and se- veral of his clergy, dressed in white surplices. They altar to the outer door, and went round the church 0 ing their cere- On entering the church, the same mony in Latin, ints in front of | the ceremony.

Myers, Johnson, and Williams, Mrs. King, Mrs. Carpenter, and Miss King, aided by some others, formed a full choir. The singing and general performance was rich, | full, and effective, aflording a treat to the numerous gentry of the Island, who were present, which they | seldom have had an opportunity of enjoying in that | icinity. The church was crowded with a highly | were of an opposite belief, and seemed to take a lively interest in the proceedings during the cere- of the mass, and also of the consecraticn. The altar was chastefully decorated, and bore seve- ral very costly articles belonging to the Church, with a ‘superb, rich, and costly golden chalice. The building is of chaste construction, of the sim- ple gothic order, its dimensions some 80 feet by 40, but faid out with a neatness that speaks largely for | the good taste of the architect. It is a perfect illus- tration of the simplex munditiis of the poet. The pulpit, at the leit side of the alter, is ascended by a flight of circular steps, surmounted by rich ecarpet- ing. The organ is placed immediately over the front entrance, and though small, possesses admira- ble tone, and power quite sufficient for the size of the edifice. The whole has been built through the untiring energy and zealous exertions of the Catho- | lic rector on the island, who seems to enjoy a good deal the good wishes and opinions of his dissenting brethren. The Rev. Mr. Medrano is « Spaniard,'and ite man s#ui generts. His appearance would at | rat impress the casual observer with the belief of | his being seme eccentric person who has retained the manners and habits of some tw. centuries gone by. His iong hair is combed back on his shoulders and partially gray—floats wildly in the air as he | movesalong. A tew moments conversation, liow- ever, will dispel the idea which a first look will im- press upon the mind, and you will at once find you are in company with a gifted and extraordinary man. The present Pope of Rome was once the pupil of Mr. Madrano, and so were many celebrated men who now figure largely on the European continent. He has been but six or seven years on this Island, | and met with considerable difficulty and opposition | when he first took up his residence there, threats | and violence being often used towards him; but, his bland and amiable manners and disposition have gained him numerous friends during the short pe- nod he has been a resident, and enabled him to consummate the leading wishes and object of his mission in the erection of the Church, the site of which has been a free gift from some of his dissent- ing friends, in testimony of personal regard. The erection of the ureh the first Catholie one ever built upon the Island, owes, also, a good deal to the private munificence of a wealthy resident, @ Spanish gentleman, named Avnandos, one of those rare sort of men in the present day, who do “Good by stealth, And blush to find it fame.” There is aschool attached to the church, and the array of the pupils of either sex, which appeared, shows the xistence of a large community of their own persuasion. 5 : Mass was celebrated, daring which the choit per- formed with admirable taste and execution. In the course of the ceremony Bisrtor Hueues ascended the altar, and read the Gospel of the day, from which he took his text, and preached to the farge assemblage, many of whom surrounded the church outside, unable to procure admission—the windows of the church being thrown op n. The text was taken from Matthew, xxii. chap.; verses 35 to 40. ‘And one of them, a doctor of the law, asked him, tempting him, saying, ' Master which is the great commandment of the law ? Jesus said to him: Thou shait love the Lord thy Ged with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind. ‘This is the greatest and first commandment. And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and the Prophets.” ‘These words, my Christian brethren, are taken from that portion of the gospel read in the Mass for this Sun- day; and | can hardly suppose it would be possible, throughout the book of the New Testament, to find lan- guage more appropriate for the occasion on which we are assembled. The Evangelist represents Christ as approached by one of those who were considered the jon ; a lawyer, or doctor of dmiration by the peop.e; 1 approached the Savior and asked him, " which is the great commandment of the law?” and the Savior an- swerved him and said,‘* Thou shalt love the Lord thy God, with thy whole heart, with thy whole soul, and th whole mind. This is the greatest’ and first comman ment. And the oud is like to thie: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two dependeth the | whole law and the prophets. Beloved brethren, this oc- casion calls upon me to offer my congratulations for the happy accomplishment of a work, in which so many of you, and with so much «a ve For years past, Ihave seen many of the sc: df my flock, moving about upon this island, like shee} without a shepherd, until their present pastor throug! his zeal and earnestness in the oy cause of religion, collected them together ; and now, hopes, which beiore, | could hardly dare tocherish, have been realized beyond Ty moet sanguine expectations.

Aro we not obliged according to the gospel to “love our enemies, to do good to them that hate us.” But then it is asked is not that unrea- sonable ?

Fiom N, Orleans Picayune, Aug. 30. | In order to allay all anxiety which may be felt on the state of affairs at Corpus Christi, we hasten to give our readers the following By the Alabama, Capt Windle, from Aransas Bay we have intelligence from Corpus Christi up to Wednesday ‘The most important intelligence, perhaps, ix the non- confirmation of the many late exciting reports relative to the movements of the Mexican army, and the proba- | bility of an engagement betweon the forces under Gen Taylor and the Mexic: So far, there is no prospect ofa fight. Gen. Taylor, himself, does not anticipate such an event Gen, Arista is at Matamoras with about 2000 men en- trenching himself, and knows of Gen. ‘Taylor's position. Itis believed that’ if Avista had marched at once upon Gen. Taylor when the latter first landed, he might casi- ly have ‘overcome him, and so on with other detach- | ments as they continued to arrive ; bu now too late Our army at Corpus Christi at this time numbers some 2000 strong, and is in condition to resist four or five times that number of Mexicans. The country, too, between the Rio Grande and Corpus Christi cannot now support an army in an attack—one of the principal impediments being a scarcity of water, of which there is little or none at all. On Sunday, the 24th inst., the Alabama anchored otf’ St. Joseph’s Island, in 63 hours from the Balize, with the troops and volunteers from this On the passage there was a little rough weather, with considerable thunder and Lightning: but no aceident occurred, and all ) arrived in good condition. The next morning all the troops landed and went i camp on St. Joseph's. On Tuesday, the volunteers, Maj. | Gally’s and Capt. Forno’s companies of artillery em- barked for Corpus Christi, 35 miles distant, on board the steamboat Dayton, and joined Gen. Taylor’s encampment the same evening. When the Alabama left Aransas Bay, the troops on the Island were preparing to start for Corpus Christi; and probably by this time they have all been removed, ex- cept afew to protect the stores, &c. ‘The Monmouth and vere busy in transporting the stores, and soon every thing will be removed. ‘The brig William [vy, which was chartered in this city | some time since, to take two companies of the 4» Lalan- try to Aransas Bay, arrived on the 24th inst, Just before the Alabama. On the passage sho encountered a squall } evening last Pre vious to the storm, one of the soldiers on board of her, in a fit of mania-a potu, jumped overbourd. A boat was low- ered and went after him, and though ho resisted, he was picked up, taken on board and tied. When the squall | struck the brig he was released, in order that he might | not drown if thrown into the water—when he again jumped into the sea and was lost. The briz sailed on the 26th inst. for Matagorda. ! ‘The schr. Edward §. Lawbden, with Quarter Master’s Stores, from New Orleans, arrived at St. Joseph's on qhe morning of the 26th. On the morning of the 26th instant the U. 8. brig Law- rence, Commander Jarvis, arrived from the Balize, and came to anchor off the Island of St. Joseph's. All well When the Alabama left, the Lawrence expected to sail | on the 20th, yesterday, for Pensacola. The schooner Mary Wilkes, from this city, arrived at Aransas last Wednesday, having on board Col. Whistler and Major Stanniford, of the army, together with horses, stores, &c. | Mr. Ringgold, who passed through this city some time | since with despatches to Texas, arrived af Aransar.on the 24th, from Galveston, in the Texan revenue cutter Santa Anna, with despatches for Gon. Taylor, and pro- ceeded at once to Corpus Christi. He also came passen- ger in the Alabam: | ‘On Monday the 25th, we had news of the arrival of the | 2d Regiment of Dragoons, under Col. Twiggs, within | four miles of Gen Taylor's encampment, which they were to have joined last Thursday. They were very | fortunate in their long mareh with their horses—not hay | ing lost any. There were, however, two or three de- sertions. They heard and saw nothing of Mexicans on their route Near San Antonio there was a large body of Caman- ches, about 300 in all, some of whom visited Colonel | Twiggs. They seemed friendly, aud much delighted at | the idea of the United States making war against Mexico. | They informed Col. Twiggs that they were going to- wards the Mexican bordeis and intended Eostiluies | inst the Mexicans. The daring of these Indians 1s weil known, A conversation not a little amusing occur- | | | red while they were in the dragoon encampment. They secmed to admire the horses very niuch, and asked Col if they would be allowed to steal any of them told ng \ e\ in his usually eccentric mann y took any of his horses he would chem aiwanches did not much relish this style of ‘plain English,” bat asked if they might not steal the Mexicans’ horses.

During ® thunder storma few days ago, a tent was struck by lightning at Corpus Christi, and a valuable servant belonging to Lieutenant Bragg, of the Artillery, instantly killed by the fluid. Others were considerably stunned, but they recovered. Lieut. G. W. Lay, came passenger in the Alabama, having despatches for the Government from Gen. Tay: lor. The schooner Florida was at Aran: sacola last Thursday This is ail the news of the slightest importance which | we were able to gather. So far every thing at Aransas | and Corpus Christi is quiet. are all well and in fine spirits. Gen, ‘Taylor, as we have | already stated, does not anticipate a collision with Arista , or any other Mexican force. He willthrow detachments of the dragoons forward between his quarters and the | Rio Grande from time to time, so thi will be impossi- ble for an army to advance upon him without his being | apprised of the fact, With the men under his command, | and the excellent pieces of artillery—two twelve pound: ers and six sixes—taken down by ‘the volunteers, from this city, his position is, in every respect, perfectly safe | from any attack the Mexicans may think Cf making upon him.

Whatever may be said in favor of Saratoga as a place of popular resort, (and 1 appreciate them with other participants, still the mountain scenery here, compared with the extended plains around that beautiful village, is magnificent | beyond description. The large and beautiful warm flowing spring here sends forth ten or fifteen barrels of water per minute from the base of a semicircle of majestic mountaine, whose proud tops command a perfect panoramic view of one of the finest valleys in the world. i i ; But betore joining in the bustle of packing, taking leave, [ must hasten to give you a bird’s eye view of the artificial scenery of this place—its natural beauty has been a hundred times described by visit- ors who have anticipated me. First then, though last in order of time, and least known probably to your readers, is a “water-cure establishment.” The isciples of Vincent Priessnibz, the German peasant of Graefenbery, have been making some little stir here this season.

'Theee knights of the “wet sheet soon evince a sort of cold water mania—they leave the beautiful flowing baths from the warm spring, before mentioned, and go in pursuit of colder water, building their “douche” baths and swimming baths in every deep iq and on every mountain stream, ‘Their principal leader brought water, by aqueduct, three-quarters of a mile, from @ pure mountain spring, to supply his baths; batthis did not satisfy many of them for coldness, and about half a score of them left the establishment for a cold spring some five miles distant. Here they built a tent, erected a “douche,” and drenched themselves in water down to a temperature of 48°.
