Reapecjing the new ministry, all that is known up to This time, simply because it is all that has been definitely Bettled, is that Lord Aberdeen is now the head of the Government with the entire concurrence of Lord Lans- Gowne and of Lord John Russell, and that Lord John Rus- pell is said to prefer to hold a seat in the cabinet with- ut the emoluments aiid labors of a department. Accounts state that it is expected that Lord John Buseell wilf consent to take the Foreign Office, and Lord Palmerston the Home, but this seems unlikely, The proceedings in Parliament have referred solely to Ye transition of the ministry. Both Houses met on the 0th, when Earl Derby officially announced the resigna. ion of the ministry, and entered into a lengthened state Jnent of the causes which led to the result. Disraeli, in the Commons, made a similar announce ment.

Mr. Hunter's friends are somewhat confident now that he will give up the Senate for the State Department.

The Protestant Episcopal Church of the Transfigu- ration, located in East Twenty-ninth street, between Fifth and Madison avenues, was consecrated yester- day morning, by the Right Reverend Dr. Wain- wright, the Provisional Bishop of the diocess. The church is about three years built, and was not consecrated till now in consequence of the vacancy in the bishopric of the diocess, The interior of the church was neatly decorated, and presented a very handsome appearance. The baptismal font was or- namented by a large basin of the choicest flowers of the season, which were presented by a lady belong- ing to the congregation. Seated around the Bishop were a number of invited clergymen, to whom were allotted different portions of the ceremonies, At half-past ten precisely the Bishop was met at the door by the churchwardens and yestrymen, who conducted him to the communion table. repeating the twenty-fourth Psalm, alternately, the Bishop one verse and the clergy the next. The Kishop then proceeded within the rails, with such of the clergy as could be accommodated, and took bis place, where the instrument of donation was presented to him by Rev. Mr. Barton. After the instrument was read, the Bishop delivered the fol- lowing exhortation :— Dearly Beloved in the Lord—Forasmuch as devout and en, as well as under the law as under the Gospel. either by the express command of God or by the seeret inspiration of the blessed spirit, and acting ayreen- ble to their own reason and sense of the natural decency of things, have created houses for the public worship of God, and separated them from all unhallowed, worldly and common uses, in order to fill men’s minds with greater reverence for His glorious majesty, and affect their hearts with more devotion and humility vice, which pious works have been approved of and gra ciously accepted by our heavenly father, let us not Aoubt but that he will also favorably approve our godly purpose of setting apart this place, in solemn manner, for the performance of the several offices of religions wor ship. And let us faithfully and devoutly beg his blessing on this our undertaking. After this, the Bishop knelt with the congregation and prayed as follows :— ©, Eternal God, mighty in power, and of majosty in- comprehensible, whom’ the heavens of heavens cannot contain, and much leas the walls of temples made with hands, and who yet has been graciously pleased to pro: mise thy especial presence wherever two or three of thy faithful servants shall assemble, in thy name, to offer uj their praises and supplications unto thee! youchsafe. LaPd | to be resent with ns, who are here gathered to- gether, with all humility and readiness of heart, to con secrate this place to the honor of thy great namo, sepa. rating it henceforth from all unhallowed, ordinary, and common uses, and dedicating it to thy service for reading thy holy word, for celebrating thy holy sacraments, for offering to thy glorious majesty the sacrifices of prayer and thanksgiving, f blessing thy people in thy name, and for the performances ofall other holy offices. | Accept, O Lord, this service at our hands, and bless it. with «uch success as may tend most to thy glory, and the further ance of our happiness, both temporal and spiritual, through Jesus Christ, our Blessed Lord and Saviour. Amen. The Bisnor then rose, and said-— Regard, O Lord, the supplication of thy servants, and ‘ant that whosoever shall be dedionted to thee in this house by baptism, may be sanctified by the Holy (host, aclvered trom thy wrata wad efornal death, aud received CO! ana eg mae of Christ's Church, and may ever re- main in the number of thy faithful children. ye Grant, O Lord, that they who at t) shall in their own persons renew the promises and vows which they made, or which were made for them by their sureties at their baptism, and thereupon shall be confirmed by the bishop, may reobive such » measure of thy holy Spirit, that they may be enabled faithfully to fulfil the sane, and grow in unto their lives’ end, Amen. Grant, 9 rd, that whosoever shall roceive in this place the blewed sacrament. of the body and blood of int, may come to that holy ordinance with faith, charity, and true repentance ; and being filled with thy grace antl heavenly benediction, may, to their great aut endless comfort, obtain remission ‘of their sins, and all other benefits of his passion. Amen, Grant, O Lord, that by thy holy word which shall be read and preached in this , and by thy Holy Spirit grafting it inwardly in the heart, the hearers thereof inay both perceive and know what things they ought to do, and inay haye power and strength to fulfil the same, Amen. Grant, O Lord, that whosoever shall be joined together iv this place in tho holy estate of matrimony may faith fully perform and keep the vow and covenant between them made, and may remain in perfect love together unto their lives’ end. "Amen. Grant, we beseech thee, blessed Lord, that whosoever shall draw near to thee in this place, to give thee thanks for the benefits which they have received at thy hands, to set forth thy most worthy praise, to confess their sins unto thee, and toask such things as are requisite and necessary as well for the body as for the soul, may do it with such steadiness of faith, and with such seriousness, affection, and devotion of mind, that thou mayest accept their bounden duty and service, and vouchsafe to give whatever in thy infinite wisdom thou shalt see to be most expedient for them : all which we beg for Jesus Christ's sake our most blessed Lord and Saviour. Amen, The Bishop then sat down in his chair and the consecration paper was read to him by the Rey. Dr, Spencer, and deposited on the comuuinion table, af ter which the Bishop said :— Blessed be thy name, O Tord, that it hath pleased thee to put it into the hearts of thy servants, to appropriate and devote this house ta thy honor and worship ; and grant that all who shall enjoy the benefit of this work, nay show forth their thanktutness by making a tight use of it tothe glory of thy blessedd name, through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. The services of the day ferent clergymen present. At the conclusion of the morning prayer, the sixth, seventh, and eighth verses of the twenty-sixth Psalm were sung with the “ Gloria Patria.” The communion service for the occasion then conemgenced the Bishop reading the following Col- ject :— O, most glorious Lord, we acknowledge that we are not worthy to offer unto thee anything belonging unto us; yet we beseech thee in thy great goodness, graciously to ac- cept the dedication of this place to thy service, and to prosper this our undertaking; receive the prayers and in- tercesssions of all thore thy servants who shall call upon thee in this house; and give them grace to prepare their hearts to serve thee with reverence and godly fear; affect them with an awful Apprehension of thy divine majesty, and a deep sense of their own unworthiness; that so ap- proaching the sanctuary with lowliness and devotion, and coming before thee with clean thoughts and pure hearts, with bodies undefiled, and minds sanctified, they may al- ways perform a service acceptuble to thee, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen, The Epistle was then read by one of the clergy- men invited on the occasion :— ‘ Eye not unequally yoked together wiih unbelievers; for what fellowship hath ryghteousness with unrighteous- ness? And what communion bath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? Or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agree ment hath the temple of God with idols? For ve are the temple of the living God : as God hath said, I will dwellin them and walk in them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. The Holy Gospel was then read by the Bishop, aa follows :— And the Jews’ Passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem, and found in the temple those that sold oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the Suaveert of money sitting : and when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen, and poured out the changers’ money, and over- threw the tables, an®said unto them that sold doves, take these things hene®, make not my Father's house a louse of mnerchandise. And his disciples remembered that if was written, the zeal of thine house hath eaten me 4 The Bishop then pronounced the benediction, as follows :— The peace of God, which passeth all understanding, keep your hearts and minds in the knowledge and love of God, and of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, and the blessing of God Almighty, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, be amongst you, and rewain with you always—Amen, The second and third verses of the twenty-first Se- lection of Psaima were then sung Tl wach my hands in innoeedes, And round thine altar go ; Pour the glad hymn of triumph thenes, And thence thy wonders show My thanks U'll publish there, and tell How thy renown excels ; ‘That eeat affords me most delight, In whieh thine honor dweils. The Bishop then ascended to the pulptt; and preach- ed a short but eloquent sermon. He took for his text the nineteenth chupter of St. Luke, forty-fifth and forty-sixth verses :— And hé went into the temple, and began to cast them out that sold therein and them that bought, saying unto them—It is written, My house is the house of prayer; dnt ye ty it w den of thieves. He commenced by saying that the text contained an account of one of Jesus’ greatest miracles, and it is remarkable that the miracle is mentioned by the four Apostles. {t was wrought, as he had reason to believe, at the commencement of Jesus’ history; and it should increase their wonder when they saw that the Lord used such forcible means for effecting his object, and at such an early period of his public life. This text, he thought, was the most fitting one he could preach from on that occasion. The sacred his- torians informed them that on the occasion Jesus went into the temple and turned out those that sold therein. The place where they sold their merchan- dise was not exactly in the temple, it was on balco- nies outside the temple and seperated by a low wall from that portion of the house where God was wor- shipped. At the time when Jesus entered the temple the feast of the Passover was celebrating, and, conse- quently, the place was thronged with people. He found, upon his arrival, that strife and confusion per- vaded the Lord’s house, and he proceeded to drive out the traffickers, and, as St. John informs us, made a thong of cords for the purpose. It is generally be- lieved that the thong was used only for the purpose of driving sheep. He then went on to say that then the time had arrived when there would be no distinction between the J tiles, and on that oc- casion he broke down the wall that, separated the Jews from the Gentiles. The Gentiles were at liber- ty to worship God, and were admitted by him, into his kingdom. On that occasion be showed no par- tiality whatever to the Jews; and to make known to them that the house of the Lord was built for the Gentiles as well as the Jews, drove out all the money changers and overthrew their tables. He then went on explaining how it was that Jesus used such forci- ble means to perform the miracle. It was very cus- tomary in Jesus’ time for men to express themselves by some out 1 and visible sign, and therefore he trusted that if there were any who had come to the conclusion that Christ had acted rather forcibly, they were then read by the dif: should remember that it was the custom of the time in which Jesus came upon the earth, and that he acted only as be ought to have done. He then alluded, in very elegant terms, to the way in which the money changers acted when they were expelled by Jesus. Not one at that time dared to arrest him in his work. He was 4 great prophet, and from some natural motive he seemed in their eyes to possess the language and actions of a great prophet. They readily pere that he, who was the son of the Father inh had a right to act as he deemed best. He then said that the congregation might ask, what all that he had spoken taught? He would answer them, and would tell them, that although the present day the honses of God were not occupied by traffickers and money changers, still they were sometines occu- pied by those who ranked next to them, he meant those who entered the sanctuary for worldly pur- poses, and thoce whose minds were not with God on they prayed. When any edifice is erected for spiritual "purposes, it is then publicly consecrated, and from that time forth it becomes Béparated trom all worldly uses. Was this, then, not a great satistac- tion to them, when they consider that they were worshipping God in his own house? They saw him not ; but is not the sou! sensible of his presence? Is it not good, then, to be in his ah house when they shonld remember that God would judge them, know- ing the thoughts of their hearts? The house in which he was preaching was none other than the house of God hey should remember that his house was built for pure and spiritual worship, and those who were prone to think of worldly objects should re- member, that when they entered the Lord's house, God, who is a spirit, is to be Mt in spirit and in truth. The temple of the Lor¢ should, t! en, be free from worldly thoughts and desires—in that slace all pleasure ‘should be banished. If they Frought with them the thoughts of amusements, wus it not degrading the temple as much as to convert it into a place of business’ They could not at all times control the thoughts of their minds—it wasan infirmity of our nature—there- fore they should look to God for help in the needful hour. It should be their constant desire that God's houre should be worshipped in only by those who are at. Remember what the Lord saith, “ My Bo se is the house of Mi hl ‘Thgy should imitate Jesus, in regard to expelling ail those who came to the holy temple for worldly pu: oa. It is anid that the services of the Protestant opal Church are not caloulated to Kee'p the minds of thone who read PRICE TWO CENTS. ioe Pray Se Comma Laie God, ani that the formalities of that Church produced worldly desires. That subject has been often discussed, and | present he did not mean to enter into any argument, for such a subject as that should not be touched upon. What could be more beautiful or more full of God's praise The pra; have been handed them. from generation to generation, and they offer.to them such means for making sacrifices to God that they are indeed holy. Hereafter, let that temple be the resort of, spiritual worshippers. Let also £] come who have sinned, and want to confess, that they my be forgiven. He concluded by sayi Cae wn all, belove: worshippers of God, may we rise through the merits and mediatiow of our Lord Jesus Christ— Amen. The communion was then administered to upwards 4 of one hundred people, after which the Bishop offered 1 ayer. ere! en ¢ i Hee teat prayer: The ceremony then closed with Catholte DISCOURSE’ BY ARCHBISHOP MVGHEs. Last evening the most Reverend Archbishop Hughes preached an able and eloquent discourse in the church of St. Francis Xavier, in Sixteenth street. The tickets of admission were charged at filty cents, and the proceeds thus derived will go towards the completion of the new parish school house annexed to the above church. The edifice was densely crowded. The Archbishop took his text from the fifth chapter of St. Paul's first epistle to Timothy, and the eighth verse. “ Butif any man have not care of his own, and especially of those in his house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.” It is very seldom, said he, that even in the Holy Scriptures we flad consequences apparently so harsh as resulting from the neglect of an ordinary duty. The Apostle makes use of language which at first would seem to be unintelligible. If there be any- thing in which men are liable to be indifferent, it is in taking care of their own—first of themselves, and next of those who are precisely in the situation that is here alluded to; and yet the Apostle does not hesi- tate to suppose that that duty could not be neglected, nor does he hesitate to denounce the consequences of its neglect in language more severe than it is easy to find throughout the pages of the Holy Scriptures. Many persons believe that it is an exaggerated form of expression, but I cannot apply any rule of criti- cism to the words of the Apostle. ~ St. Paul does not write about the things of this world to provide for the settlement of children. St. Paul is not. inte- rested in men who haye households, that they should be well furnished, for that would be unworthy of his inspiration; but he writes to a convert trom Pa- ganism, or Judaism, to the faith and yeligion of Jesus Christ. The Rey. Archbishop, at great length, proceeded to explain the duties incumbent upon parents in attending, with scrupulous care, to the religious education of their children at an early age, and went on to say—We are living in a country and placed among denominations entirely disagreeing with ours, both as regards the theory of religion and the mode in which God would hayo it preserved; nor yet are they agreed among themselves; so that while the State has paid attention to the education of our future citizens, the State has hitherto, by necessity or choice, but unwilling or unable, to admit the most essential element of Christian knowledge into the teachings of our schools. She professes to teach no religion, and aM she is offended if we say this ia a retrograde step towards the barbarism of Pagan ages. She is rampant if we say this. But she will have no sectarianism, and it so happens at inthe relation of creeds in this land, there is no Christianity left if yon exclude all sectarianism; and, therefore, to exclude all sectarianism is to ex- clude everything that pertains to be Christian in the whole length and breadth of this land. The State has imagined that this would satisfy our fellow Pro- testant citizens, and certainly ight; but, if the Apostle is to be relied upon, this will not satisfy ns. Th 'y have thrown overboard the idea of a perpetual and true religion in the world—they have rejected the idea of a church asa divine corporation, insti- tuted hy Christ to preserve those truths which were sent from Heaven for the benefit of the child. They imagine that religion has become an individual affair, and hence one of their great principles is that all men should search the Scriptures, And by the very word search do they not intimate that they have it not? if they were possessed of this religion, would it be necessary to search for it? For, if it be religion, it must be something revealed, and not discovered by long and deep mystic study. We regard it as a pub ished outward fact, but’ they as an individual con- cern, Another principte of their religion is that God, from all eternity, has predestined certain specific individuals to come into the world, and, haying been predestined, that they shall be effectnal- called, and this being the stern — but as they suppose—and 1 will not question their right. ‘The just aud merciful ordination of God of course man cannot resist, no matter whether religiously cdu- cated or not. It is his privilege, they say, to choose his religion, or to choose any religi nd whether : be educated or not, if he happe: ‘oO be of the number of those whom God has ordained from all eternity, he cannot disappoint himself of the result of that cternal decree. Hence, therefore, with them it is an easy matter to send their children to schools— even Pagan schools, for upon this hypothe: not interfere with the end of their creation. , therefore, complain that they will not condescend in their public administration’ of this important tru: ation in which we are supposed to contribute our share of the expense, to look at the subject from the same point at which every Catholic must regard it. Jf they cannot accomplish that object which the Catholic parents find it incumbent upon themselves to insist upon, let them relinquish it, and say, “this system suits us, and to a certain extent is in harmony with our religious convict ; but we will not im- pose upon you the means that would be necessary to edusate your children, and deny the commonright to have them educated according to your own conyic- tions. We will not tax you at all, and if we do in the aggregate, in which the parents all agree in the same faith, theu we shall give you ion, simply reserving to ourselves the right to y you shall not waste the public money in the mere inculeation of your specific doctrine of froth.” This would be reasonable, but it is certain that no State can ever release parents altogether from_the ob- ligation of educating thetr children in a Christian manner; and it is certain that in our State it is, if anything, less possible than elsewhere. I can imagine that iu a State where there is only one religion, you can well organize a system of public education, and either leave out religion, or introduce it, which no one will object to; but ina conmannity made up of such various schools of doctrine as ours, it would be utterly impossible, perhaps, to introduce religi schools in which sections are represented, without introducing at the same time sources of strife that would render the management of the schools utterly impracticable. I do not now enter into the question how far under these circumstances the State has the right lo tax citizens, and against their will enter so deeply upon that sxered groupd, which is well se- cured by the constitution, viz:—Religious rights and freedom of conscience, and which treedom of con- sele ought to leave a clear way for Christian Cath fathera to have their sons and daugh- ters educated as their consciences dictate, provided they do it at their own expense. [ enter not npon that question, but I say that education, even of the vecular order accomplishes its end better when administered wherever it is possible under the sanction of religion. Why is this? Be- cause the church regards man not being of time but it takes the whole man—his whole destiny, bod, oud soul, time and eternity—and so when she e Iiishes a school, how does she regard the pupil? Why, ber first and great pri pe is to prepare him not only for this state, but for the high v's whigh is to be an everlasting citizen of the immortal realms of his God. The church, therefore, in her teaching , loys the groundwork of good citizenship. She has some lever upon which to act, if she teaches the child not to lie, and at the same time teaches him that God abominates liarw, and has denounced threats them. So with regard to every virtue, espe- cially those that have a soc ondency, there is a groundwork of faith and religion laid down, which the State can never provide, for the State and all the States of the universe cannot make a man honest, nor an honest man. ‘The church can do both. Him whose education she has presided by, she can train up in honesty; and if at any time he should fall away, she has the power, by invisible means, to bring him back to the path he has deserted. The State can do neither. It can punish a rogue, but it cannot make su honest man, nor an upright citizen; and even that punishment it gannot always accomplish, and etill less will # be able to do so, when a future acneration shall bave taken the Peed of that which now exists. Men of highly cultivated nrints, and knowing; all arts and artifices, now escape from ex: posure, and the State has not even the power to punish a rogue, tnt only the rogue who has nat the cunning to evade her jurisdiction, Can this State ecepect that future generations will be as upright as, heir predecessors? I tell you that the great men. of this country and their associates, althon, ch they dif- fered widely from anything that is Catholic, never- theles, they believed'and acted upon the tine! Ne, that where There ta n0 religion, ag faith, ao belief, ag brethren, be eternal | the basis of morality, civic integrity, anf hiph-aind- ed and disinterested patriotism, are not be looked for as @ general rule, cient evidence can We atdeced that the State is not rendering a service to in establishing schools, and permitting rel. ion te come to the door; and there and not e Wer. TE would commend to your attention the oblig ane which are imposed y ou by your of transmitting your faith your dnildren, ana then to see whether the State afd you or not, bh host you can discharge these obligations. The chur, 8 has invariably kept this in view, When there was bu © one religion, although human science had notso large * a acope for the exercise of its power, and although even the knowledge of religion might be limited, yot it was as much @ matter of course as food provided for your children, that they should kaow all the mysteries of the Christian faith, and tint ot should practice them, so far as depended upon the! parents. This was Teeny well understood, ut the same time when, from distress or other cumstances, the parents were unable themselves | t - fuifil the requirements of education, then it happem °4 in the beautiful economy of our common faith, tha men and women of the highest education were pres- pared to devote themselves to the task—not for tin * salaries that this world could give them, but for tha | love of God, and for the love of those young soula who had been brought into , and who might otherwise be left ignorant of the ine inheritance: of faith. ‘They devoted their whole lives to the tedi-« ous and slow wasting occupation of teaching, and teaching that which 1s true, to promote the glory of God and the welfare of their fellow beings. Tiger things have existed, and although it impossible ° we can haye them to any great extent, yet I am happy and proud to witness the evidence of your sympathy es the subject, and the time is coming, and not, 1 believe, far distant, when everp Catholic parent, rich and poor, will have ther opportunity of having his sons and daughters educated schools in which the State may not. say to religion—that is the Catholic religion—as waa said tothe ovean—‘‘Thus far shalt thou come and uo further.” The infusion of rele into education. will assist science, for religion will purify and elevate the ideas of the student, and will make a cultivated intellect a blessing to the age, and not acurse as it now is. Religion will sanctify all which would other- wise be wasted, for I confess that all science, apart from religion, however useful it may be, is the smallest: possible account. The State, in proposing. education, takes man by sections, and bee) hare down to the race of. ein useful domestic as the breed of which is to be improved by premiums trom the State authorities, It looks at man, and values him for what? For his immortal soul. Not in the least, for it has nothing to do with his immor- tal soul. It values him for his usefulness—he is to Le a useful, rational, intellectual animal, and, in the space between the period of his acquire deducation and his death, by his knowledge, an 5 enterprise, and devotion to his own interests, he is to accom- plish, successfully and powerfully, any enterprise he tay undertake, and thus, become, through the modi- um of selfishness, an example of activity, the result of which must be beneficiat to the whole community at large. I dole any man te say that the State has raised its soul, if it bas a soul to a higher consideration of education thaw that; and [ask, even, if the dignity of man is not of- fended by such an estimate? Therefore itis erie, that although we may have tolerated the practice seeing Catholic children go to these schools, because necessity has required it; that Catholic tas whoule ard, and exert themselves by every means to supply what has been denied them sa the schools; for experience has taught and proved that the teaching even of the pastor once a week is coun- teracted by the unteaching and the negativeness the children acquire during the other six days. This ia beyond a doubt, for it is matter of boast with ay of those men who are advocates of this public seh system, that it is wasting away the growth of Catholie Church, and that it is impossible for the Catholic Church to succeed in this country, be- cause what they call their republican American eda- cation destroys the influence of Divine faith, whether derived from the public teacl of the Church, or from the piety and parental affection of the domestic circle. They boast of it; and have we a right to deny that it isso? There can be no doubt of it. But we tell those eee also, in retarn, that the same ruin is overtaking their own children. £ could prove by indisputable facts that there is a fall- ing ofi—1 will not say from Catholicism—but from Christianity, that is quite perceptible in tracing progress of these schools. I quote one single in- stance from reliable authority. Nearly the whole class by which the Protestant ministry was fomedy supplied has disappeared altogether; and alt n they have places and pensions in theological semi- partes, they cannot find candidates to accept them— although they have education and position offered to them, the race of pious young men, as they used to he called twenty years ago, has died out, and this ! fact is acknowledged. They know not what isto be the consequence if Providence should not raise up candidates to continue their ministry. What ia the effect of these schools hut to create an absolute indif- ference as to all divine relevation’ A negativeness. it may not strike the observer so immediately, be- rouse there is still a certain tone in the country, vague respect and a vague reverence for the Bibl hut, then, thi erence, you will find, even among those who pores to teach i meaning. smounts to nothing but whatever you please. Fac! is the judge—each one is to search—there is no I tenching out of the church; and the fact is, ve departed from whatever was possibly af firmative in their creed, to such an extent. that now there is scarcely a single doctrine which they would think it worth while to defend; and if they did, they efend it, becaus authority is lost, ex- cept the authority ot and the authority ox the Bible is precisely an authority for or against, as every man thinks proper to attach a mean- ing to the words he read. The race of pious young men is disappearing; and is it to their grati- fication if their children are thus fulling away into indifference and _scepticism—is it a compensation to them that Catholic children are involved in the same ruin? If they understood the sues as we do, 1 am satisfied they would unite with us by every means hy which we could prepare for the duties of civil, s0- cul, and domestic life, those children who, in providence of God, are consigned to be brought up under the faith and under the training of oan, rents. Then you uld retain good citizens to State, and true Christians to the church, and the race of mockers at religion would soon be diminished. Then your house would become respectable. Then your age will become reverenced ; whereas, if this system goes on for half a century longer, with the impulses so natural to ‘the spirit of this country, children, before they are fifteen years of ‘age, coming from these — schools, will forget the endearing mame of father and mother, and look upon their parents as only their fellow citi, zens—nothing better than themselves. i reverence for all authority disappears with the con- temptuous regard that the puqlic by its great influen- tiul opinion has expressed upon edacation; and, for s reason, I say to you that | thank God that you have manifested so numerously and so zealously your sympathy with the undertaking of a Christian Catho- lic echool for your children in ee neighborhood- T hope the time is coming when they will be multi plied, and be at least as near the church to which ou bring your offspring to consecrate them to God in Holy Baptism. You must have @ care of your own, and especially those of Nes honsehold, under the penalty which f pray God in His infinite goodness to avert from yor Police gence. A Bald Thief and a Courageous Woman.—On day afternoon, a rogue calling himself Edwart juttom, entered the dwelling house No. 42 Pike street, occnpied by Mrs. Hepburn, and in one of the upper rooms selected from a bureau wearing apparel valued at $160, and was on his way to escape with the stolen property, when Mrs. Hepburn, on ing footsteps in the hall, hurried to see who was there, and saw the thief, with the property in his possession, near the street door, She immediately seized hold. ot the fellow by the collar, and gave an ge absolutely detained him until the police arrived. Policeman Hiler, of the Seventh ward, took the ac- crised into custody, and conveyed him before Justice Wood, who, on the positive evidence adduced, com mitted him to prison fo; .
