The members of the | benevolent Lrish Society assembled early at their Hall, Prince Street, At ten o'clock | they formed a grand procession, and to ths l'wuste of the City Cornet Band, marched ito St. Dunstan's Cathedral. A Pontifical | High Masa then celebrated by His | Lordship, Bishop McIntyre, assisted — by i Rev. Stephen Phelan, of Alberton, wih Rev. Francis Gallaut as Deacon, Rev. J hin i M r¢ donal l, as sub Deac ni, aad Rev. A. J Melntyre, as master of Ceremonies. The Rev. Allan MeDonald, of Fort | Augustus, delivered the sermon, which was very elcquent and impressive. His text taken from the first epistle to the Cormthians, &th chap, and 2nd verse. | The name Apostle, said the preacher, is tusually applied to those who have been, ‘under God, instrumental in leading nations ito Christianity—to those who are endowed {in a special mawner with gifts for the con- version of souls, and are successful. Apostles are of the salt of the earth. Their inheritance is the world, by virtue of then commission to go teach all nations; and words fail to express how dear they are to their Master. It is sail “they shail shine ike stars, ‘they shall be called rich in ; Kingdom ef God.’ the Holy Catholic Church has been pleased to apply the titk |of Apostle on all those who have followed lin the footsteps of the first Apostles, and

He established 565 churches, and ordained 3000 priests; and when he went to his reward and received his crown, he left a complete Catholic hierarchy in Ireland. Before he expired, he prayed that the Chureh he had planted im lreland might never die out; and his prayer is answer- ed.

Advices from Newfoundland report that the fires of religious hatred and animosity have broken out in the Legislature.

usual formal address in reply to the (rovernors speech re-echoed the sentiment. The Government is a cvalition of Catholics and Protestants, and was supported by every Catholic in the House. Mr. Penny, an Orange member from Carbonear, moved an amendment to the address, deneuncing “the unjustifiable outrage at Harbor Grace, declaring that the present deplor- able state of feeling was the result of the disgraceful failure of justice at the recent trial of the Riverhead prisoners, and that harmony and good feeling could not be re- stored until justice had been satistied.” This wes opposed by the Catholics in a body and members of the Government Sir Wm. Whiteway moved an amendment to the amendment, very much to the same effect, but more moderate in tone. This! was carried by asmail majority, but was | equally offensive to the Catholics, and as a | result Hon. J. W. Donnelly, Minister of Customs, and R. J. Kent, Speaker cf the House, both Catholics, resigned their positions. The Catholic party is led by Sir Ambrose Shea, who is prevented by the political crisis from proceeding to Washing- ton to negotiate for reciprocity.
This will be the end of Whiteway’s Gov- | ernment, and the new, administration will | be rau on Protestant lines.
