let on the part of oar Catholic
friends but all acquiesce ln the deStre
€hat he shall assist in thedelitierations of
the great r-,Veptis body in which the
whole ciyi,
Ig s
:—:- : id will:be more or less
interested, - e action will mark
an era in M istary. It having been
announced that the. Bis hop would depart
so early, on Saturday a few gentlemen of
'St. Paul's Cathedral made up a purse in
order to derray,ttie expenses of the jour
ney to the Holy Seo—quite a handsome
-amount in gold—and yesterday afternohn
a committee waited upon him at the Enis
ooPal residence and formally presented it;
together with efarewell addreas exprthas
ed in neat and beautiful language by
Dr. george B. Keyser. The Bishop fee „•-,
ingly replied, expressing his heartfelt
gratitude on receivis-tt such a substantial
marls of th_t.'..iove, respect and regard di
his congregation.
It having been announced that the,
Bishop would deliver a farewell sermon
inPaul's Cathedral last night at
Vea re
, that spacious edifice was crowd
ed- t; • its utmost capacity, fully three
thousand persons being present to hear
the parting words , and receive the part
ing bertediction,ef a prelate who is al
most v.orshipsd by tie flock, and de
servedly popular, with all who know
him. At o'clock, lusentered the pulpit,
and as he surveyed the vast audience
that had turned out tri bid him fare Well,
he was very visibiy affected, and it was
- some :time before he regained his usual
compOure. The,. occasion - must , have
been pleasingand gratifyiug to him, and
,yet full of sorrow, as he could not help
thinking that perhaps his eyes would,
_never again .rest upon any or many of
those before him, for his absence will be
long, and should he return. he will find
that death has not been idle in the mean
while among his people. We subjoin
from memory, a brief abstract of the
farewell sermon, which was very elo
quent and touching, and.maSie deep-im
pression on all who were present:
The Bishop said that on the eve of his
departure for the "Eternal City" to at
tend the union o(the - Catholic Bishops
of the whole world in General Council,
under the shadow of St.- Peter's, it was
nothing but natural, proper and fitting
that he should - bid: farewell to his flock
and explain the object of the visit. • The
first inqtdry address( d is wt at has taken
place, v, hat grave and potent cause has
led to the necessity of the drawing togeth
er of all the Catholic Bishops of the world
to pit iu council with tee successor of St.
Peter, the Soveign Pontiff of the Church
at its head ? Why must these -prelates
be called upon to leave their flocks, leave
the work in which they are engaged,
leave all things and visit Rome to par
ticipate in the forthcoming gathering?
Is the church in danger? No. it can
not be in danger, for Christ has promis
ed to remain with it "even until the con
summation of the world," and it never
can be placed in jeopardy. In order to
intelligently explain why this extraordi
nary council has been called oy the Sov
ereign' Pontiff, who alcne has tne
power !to convene it, tbe speaker pro
ceeded to argue from the fundamental
principles of the Church. Christ came
co the, world and selected the twelve ;
Apostles, instructed them in eternal'
truths and sent them forth with the Di
vine injunction "teach ye all nations,"
and charged that "whosoever bearethyou
heareth aie" and those who refused to
hear were to be as the "heathen and pub-
Bean." They were instructed together, for
it is worthy of special remark, that Christ,
always addressed his Apostles in the'
plural, never singly, in weaving his in-i
Junctions with them. Then Christ said'
i
to Peter : "Thou art ,a rock and on this
-rock I will build my Church" . and .'the
gates of hell shall not prevail against it."
,Here Peter was created theXibible Head
1 of the Church on earth, the successor of .
Its Divine Founder. What Christ said(
to His apostles applies to their anccesi
sore, the Bishops and - priests of the
Church, and the powers given them., are
remitted by succession down through
eighteen hundred years- of time. Toe
`church in her councils cannot err in mat-,
tera of faith for; Christ, who is all truth
•Himself, has been, is, and will
forever 'be Atilt': her as 'He so prom]
teed
- - the apostles. Virtually, .th;
firat-Fiumenical- ti
Concii- - was held
by the Apostles themselves in the
city of , Jerusalem, 'where; 'tinder Peter
..they aggetiabled to counsel together and
take action. as to what was to be donettd
preveni.theinroads a wicked and uncon
1 verted•Worldwas making on Christian
ityr. So great and imp )rtant an event aa
an Universal er Ecumenical Council o
the Church has occurred rarely . in h'ii--,
'tory., 'Three hundred years and more
hare elapsed sluon-ths !last-council et
this character Nr_as' held (that of Trent,,,
(1545-1163) and' altogether' but -- .eighle.ri
since the establishment of the Church,‘
excluaive of the one about to be held. .2 \
The Church organization, ae you are
aware, continued the speaker, is divided
into bioceses, over each of which a
'Bishop presides. These dioceses are 11
clustered into Provinces—this being the 1
' diocese of Pittsburgh and presided over]
=in province by the Archbishop of Italti-;

In the Real Estate Bualneas:
A member of the Allegheny county
bar, who has prospered in his business
and is pbssessed with a full share of this
world's goods, was, by his desire to in
crease his worldly portion, swindled out
,
of fifteen hundred or two thousand' dol
lars one day last week, by a young
_
sharper the country." The Story
runs thus: The lawyer referred to hap
pened to be in one of the offices of the
Court House' when a well known real
estate agent came in and inquired about
a certain piece of property near Perrys
ville, as to whether there were any
mortgages or judgments againat it
Finding the property unincumbered, or
at least nearly so, the agent returned' to
his office, where he was shortly after
ward visited by the lawyer, who has the
reputalion of being, a sharp financier,
and interrogated concerning the proper
ty. The agent replied that the owner of
the prbpert3r was a young man and•WaS
about to take to , bin:lE4ll'a. companion,
who was very wealthy, •that he did
'not have as mush ready cash as would i
"be necessary to'defroy his wedding ex,- 1
penssa, and was. - desirous orratsing
t 2,000 by mortgaging his property. Sub
sequently the lawyer met a gentleman
prOrpcirting to be the owner of the prop
erty, and geeing sale suppoied an °pox.-
tn nity fore geed'investment; agreed to let
him have the 'money and take a.-.most-`
gage, at what rate' of interest we have
I not been able td ascertain. The deed for
the property Was produced and themort
gke•written and executed, after which
'the money w, paid- over to the
young wan who l tartedinatuediately ilar
s
Canada where h'alleged ..his prospec-,
tive bride" resided. The next day the
operation did not look so bright, to ; the
speculator as at first. It was ascertained
that the titan: Wilo had executed the
mortgage was not the owner of the pro,
Party and had no interest whatever. but
that he bad played an, exceedingly sharp
I dodge by which he ma4e 12,000..::It ap
pearsithat he was an acquaintance of the
(true qwner, had access to his room, and
private papers, and had avaield himself
of the opportunhy to steer the deed for
the property, and coming to the city
strucks bargain andexecutedamOrtgage
in the owner's name adding the crime
of forgery.to that of larceny. There is
talk of a prosecution.
