A large crowd of people assembled on Sunday last to witness the formal openicg for divine ser vice of the handsome new Catholic church in this place. The services consisted of a Urand High Mass, in which Bev. Benno liagely. Prior, of Oarrolltown, officiated as Celebrant. Kev. J. Farren, of Tvrone. as Deacon. Rsv. J. C. Bigharn, " of New Brighton, as Sub-Deacon, and Rev. Giles Cristoph, .f St. Vinicent's, as master of ceremonies. Iteva. Mitchell aud Brown, of Loretto, were also preseut in the sanctuary, and that venerable and revered priest and pioneer of Catholicity. Very Rev. Tiiomaa Hayden, of Bedford, preached the opening sermon, which was iudetrd tme of the most eloquent, yet plain and comprehensive, ora tions we have ever heard delivered by that highly gifted and tru'y eloquent expounder of the Catholic faith. At the conclusion of the sermon, which was preached after the first gospel, the worthy pastor of thecongre gation appointed beveral gentlemen to take up a collection, and their united efforts re sulted in secuiing between $300 and $400 several Protestants present as well as in em bers of the church Contributing quite liberal ly to the good caua . There U no doubt that all were imbued with a commendable pride and satisfaction in. beholding in our own midst one of the most substantial, as it is certainly the handsomest and finest finished church edifice between Pittaburg and Phila delphia an oruament to our town, a credit to those who contributed to its erection, and & standiug monument to the religious zeal and indomitable perseverence of Rev. R. C. Chrinty, the respected pastor in charge. The inside dimensions of this superb struc ture ar 100 by 60 feet, not including the vestry rooms, and the height from the floor to the magnificently groined ceiling is 82 fret. It is lighted by thirteen beautifully stained windows, twelve of which were con tributed by that mauy members of the congregation, and inside the sanctuary are three of the neatest altars that could well be conceived.- On brackets arranged at proper intervals around the church, and up borne by figures of angels, are beautiful modeled life-site statues or. the twelve apos tles, while ether portions of the walls are decorated with the finest ehromo representa tion of the 'Way of the Cross" that we have ever seen. Many other pleasing adorn ments, about the altar particularly, attracts the eye and calls forth the highest niede of praise from all beholders, but we have not space now to enter into full details. Here let us say, however, that nearly all the altar and sanctuary furniture and ornaments, in cluding the splendid carpeting, sacred ves sels, candle sticks, etc., as well as the beau tiful "Stations of tho Cross," were obtained through the unaided and highly commenda ble exertions of one person, and that person a lady, aud that lady Mr. Lynn Boyd. Her generous and unselfish labors arc worthy of commendation, and ber example should be imitated by all, especially in the matter of paying for th fine statuary which now adorns the church the requisite funds for which, it is hoped, will be forthcoming in the same way iu which the money for the stained windowb was Mtained. We also understand that through the exertions of Mrs. Boyd a lite-size figure of the crucifixion has been obtained in Naples, Italy, and is expected to arrive in a short time. When all is complete when the fine pews are placed in position and a heating furnace put under the building in short, when all yet needed isdoue, our Ca'holic frieuds here will have a church which bus not and cannot be surpassed for beauty, comfort and stability anywhere in the country. It u but just to bay, in connection with the opening of the church, that the fine choir t'.id itself great credit in thi rendering of the several parts of the Mass. and mani fested its ability to fill the extensive building with the sweetest sounds of Sicied melody.

It is situated two or three miles west of Ebensburg, Cambria county.

Being in the center of a flourishing settle ment, and in taking the shortest portage be tween the Eastern and Western waters, it is likely to become a deposit for stores, a manu facturing town, and a seat of justice. Besides tte old settlers, upwards of one hundred emi grants have settled in the vicinity of Beula since last October, and many more have en gaged to join them this summer. 6. A land office for supplying actual settlers with farms to a considerable amount and in various situations will be immediately opened in the town. 1 hs proprietors in the circumja cent country ate solicited to send their drafts and terms of sale, or leasing, by Taos.

Dear Freeman YJar correspondent has been, doirig the extreme north of the county, during the Week past, at; the tart end of" a surveyor's chain ; aud although., we cuaoot conscientiously recommend this as a superior plan for the observation ot the country, par ticularly at this season of the year, yet much valuable information taay be gtberdju re gard to the extensive and almost twiuhabited townships lying uorth of us '. '.We were en gaged for the greater part of: the week in hunting up lines on the f'.Waliiss; lands" the original survey of a large cumber ot tracts in that section. These surveys were made about the year 1792, and the owners met the usual fate of those who ar4 so' un fortuuate as to acquire tod much laud with out sufficient capital to back them. A gentleman named M'Connell. a resident of Philadelphia, became burety for the 'Wallisa company, and when they failed be found himself the owner of about 17.000 acres of land in Cambria and Clearfield cuuntlta. which was at that time considered of. but little value. M 'Connell died shortly after securing possession of this imtuenw body of land, having never personally visited it. Ia the year 1824 Mrs. M'Connell, his widow, came to this couuty and settled about Line miles north of this place, adjacent to the lit tle village now known as . Glen Connell. Here a house waa erected for her, the doors and windows of which, were packed hence from Philadelphia, and in the vicinity the persuaded Beveral families to locate among others, Richard Proudfoot, the elderrNo doubt she hoped to eventually see her lands settled and their value increased, but though inducements were offered, few cared to pen etrate the then wilderness, and shortly after the marriage of her daughter to John G. Miles. Eq., now of Huntingdon, she gave up ber hopeless task of peopling those wild acres and removed with her son-in law to Huntingdon, where she died. Her former residence, known as the "Oid Glen Connell House," is located on the farm now owned by Mr. John Swope, but I notice this old landmark is being demolished by the preseut proprietor.
