A pad disaster happened in Stockholm,
Sweden. On the 23d ot May last the tower
, of a new Catholic church lell in, crushing the
.building to fragments and burying in lis ruins
lorly workmen. The King personally aided in
saving life and limb, and with his aid-de-camp
"was the means of rescuing the church-plate and
pictures from destruction. Twenty-two men
were killed, and cii,'ht more horribly mutilated,
the rest escaping with comparatively little in
jury. The calamity has deprived six hundred
Catholics of Stockholm, and many more through
out Sweden, of a house wherein to worship.
They have not the means to rebuild it, and tney
appeal to the generosity of their co-rellgiouists
throughout the world for assistance.

The Missionary Bishop of Arkansas makes
the following acknowledgment ot a becoming
act on the part of a clergyman of Western New
York and a number of his friends:
"During the war the church at Van Bureu
was robbed of a valuable communion service.
It was the piit of Iriends in New Orleans, and
w the only silver service in the State. It was sup
posed to be iu Kansas, and I have been engaged
In correspondence, prosecuting inquiries in that
quarter. Unexpectedly, however, I have re
ceived a letter from Rev. Mr. Franklin, of Mount
Morris, N. Y., informing me that he had found
the plate in question in the hands ot a dis
charged soldier. With the assistance of some
kind Iriends he bought it, paving for it its esti
mated value at 'old silver,' $108. To-day I have
received the express receipt lor it, and thus the
communion vessels are returned to the parish
free of all cost and charges. In the name of the
parishioners, and in my own behalf, 1 tender to
Mr. Franklin and hia coadjutors sinorrest

very grateful to the hearts of Southern church
men. And thus may it ever be. May the Church

that which iuan in his selfishness has taken
