Exercises Held at the Corner of Thirteenth and Poplar/ -4* Streets., *i, ft -,

ADH)RE§8 BY BISHOP CHATARD. ffi tfi yi hi I. V# $ -o v- fi ^Yesterday afternoon, at three o'clock, was the time fixed for laying the cornerstone of St. Patrick's church, the new Catholic church at the corner of Thirteenth and Poplar streets.

The rain, coming as it did, was the cause of considerable delay, but notwithstanding, a large crowd of people began pouring in, and by half-past three o'clock there wew probably two thousand persons 6n the ground. Ju(

The Catholic societies were all out in procession, headed by carriages containing the Bishop and other clerical gentlemen. Then came the St. Joseph Total Abstinence society, headed by the McKeeti Cadet band, followed by other societies. headed by the Ringgold band. .Bishop Chatard officiated in laying the corner-stone, assisted by Father McEvoy, and several clerical gentlemen from V\n cennes and Indianapolis,

After the exercises. Bishop Chatard addressed the multitude for more than an hour, Giving a history of the connection between the visible corner-stone and the corner-stone of our faith, which is Christ Jesus, saying that many persons from Catlioiic countries arriving on the shores of America, and finding no priest nor Catholic school, naturally strayed away from the true faith, so that, instead of there being only seven millions of Catholics -Jn this country there should be nearly fifteen millions. He showed how the world is being filled with error. That false teachers have arisen on every side, and are only clothing the Pantheism of the Hindoo, the materialism of the Greek, the myths of the Roman, in new garments. He showed that the true Catho for one moment these errors. That the Christian religion has^ been growing steadily for nineteen-

KtindfSj years, and is as bright to-day as it was in the time of St. Peter. He spoke of the convocation of the Episcopal church at Baltimore, in 1871, in which they gave an opinion as to what was the meaning of regeneration, as applied to in fant baptism, saying that the Bishops of that church, then assembled, gave certain things connected with infant baptism, as their opinion. He said if religion was founded on the opinion that every man and woman could have a religion of his own, but tlKsi the religion of the Holy Catholic church was not founded on any opinion, but on the absolute will of Almighty God.

j-vf I..

AN U?TKNOWN MAN RAVI SUBS A TEN-YEAR-OLD GIRL, AND THEN CUTS HER THROAT. BOONVILLB, IND., August 28.—News has just reached Boonville of one of the most horrible outrages ever perpetrated in Warrick county. G. W. Ward, a respectable and well known farmer, living twelve miles north of here, in Lane township, this county, in company with his wife, attended the Soldiers' Reunion in Booneville to-day, leaving the house in charge of their little children until their return in the evening, little thinking of any danger in their absence. Some unknown man this morning at about eleven o'clock, entered the house and terribly raped Mr. Ward's ten-year-old daughter in the presence of her helpless little brothers and sisters. After accomplishing his hellish purpose, the fiend cut the throat of the little girl. The shrieks of the terrified little ones were heard by passing teamsters, who hurried to there assistance, noticing at the time a man running from the house, who subsequently disappeared in tho woods.

The little girl was found lying on tho floor saturated with blood flowing from a horrible gash in her throat and life almost extinct. Messengers were immediately dispatched for her parents at Boonville, whoie agony on hearing the sickening story was heartrending. Medical aid was summoned, but it will doubtless be. of no avail. The community is highly excited over the affair, and should the fiend be discovered Texas justice will be liberally dealt out to him. i. steamer Lo»t.

DETROIT, MICH., August 29.—The following dispatch is just received from Alcona: "The steamer Marine City caught fire in the hold about four o'clock this afternoon, when about two miles from here, and 4s a total loss. The fire, when first discovered, had sueh headway that nothing could be done to stop it.

The boat was headed for the shore, but before going far the engineer wa% compelled to leave his place, and the engine stopped. The tug Vulcan was about two miles off, and went to the rescue, as did the life-saving station boat, with boots from the Shore, and the fishing tug Grayling. Many of the passengers jumped overboard when the fire was first discovered, and some were drowned. A number were taken ashore, both alive and dead, at Sturgeon Point Light. "Great praise is due Captain Comer and crew for their heroism also to Captain HacHett, of the tug Vulcan, who ran his tug td the burning ooat and took off the passengers. fS jfi Afuth*nii»uui.

LONDON, August 80.—A dispatch from Chaman on Sunday says: "General Roberts marched from Rhilat-I-Ghilzai for Candahar the 25th inst. He took with him all the British Garrison, and handed over the fort to the Ameer's officials. He expects to reach Candahar Mondav and attack Ayoob Khan Tuesday. He has sent a plan for combined action with General Phayer if the latter can reach Takht-I-Pu! on Monday. This, however, is impossible, in consequence of the scarcity of food and forage, and the wholesale desertion of drivers. Takht-I-Pul is three hundred miles south of Candahar."

A dispatch from Calcutta says: "The more common impression is that Ayoob Kahn will retreat toward Herat, and it is universally hoped the Government will allow General Roberts to follow him to Herat if necessary. The cholera at Pesliawaur is dying out."

Waukesha Letter,

Special to the Xsws^

WAUKESHA, Wis,, August 27,

It ii* with pleasure I date my next, or this letter, to you from this Famous City of the Springs, (I will call it.) Waukesha. After abiding for the last ten days in the crowded and busy city of Chicago, one feels that sense of freedom that the caged bird experiences when allowed to plume itself for flight to its forest home. My home while here is at the commodious Fountain Spring House, whose capacity will entertain 600 guests. Everything pertaining to the house is arranged with reference to the comfort of the guests, more than a desire for display. Mr. Lailin the proprietor of the house, has 160 acres of ground on which his house is situated, and is now making preparations for add ingfrom 80 to 100 more rooms. The house is closed during winter. It is opened from the 15th to the 20th of Juue and closes the middle of September. It is situated in the south-west part of the town on a gently rising slope, overlooking the busy part of the place as well as the dwellings which nestle in the shade of the trees, peeping out here and there like chickens from neath the mother's wing. A range of low hills, mostly covered with forest trees, but dotted hero and there with a house and its appurturances, stretching from tho west around to the north-east, forms a splendid back-ground to this lovely scene in nature. Every few moments there are busses leaving the house which make a tour of tho springs, stopping first at the Betliesda, which takes its name from the pool of Jerusalem, where an angel caincdown at a certain season and troubled the waters whoever went in immediately after was healed of their infirmities. Thus says Iloly Writ. This is the first Spring visited. It is curbed in with blocks of marble making a pool about 8 feet in diamotor. Five or six steps lead down to this water where a young lad is continually busied with filling the glasses of the guests. There is quite a pretty covering erected over the spring, resembling somewhat a pagoda. There are seats arranged for the comfort of guests and pleasant grounds, laid out with walks and flowers. A drive of a mile past two smaller springs, Glen and Hygiea, brings you to the Silurian Spring which is the favorite one for our Terre Haute people I am told, and recommend edby our townsman Dr. Long. An analysis of these Waters, made by the Chemical Laboratory of Rush Medical College, Chicago, if as follows:

Each gallon of 281 inches contains:

Chloride of Sodium 0.1920 grains Sulphate of Sodium 0.21M7 Bl-curbouttte of Sodium..,..... ... 0.0301 Carbonate of Calcium 9.9277 Carbonate of Magnesium 0.8&M Carbonate of iron 0.1H5 Phosphate of Iaon Traces.

Total solids.......... Carbonic acid gttii.

18.f$861 grains.

44.7 cubic in pur gal.

Walter S. Haines, M. D., Rush Medical College, says it is the purest water ho has ever examined.

As to the climate I have never found any place where you could cscape the hot days which we have had and, I Judge, ever will come with the months of July and August. I have been from the White Mountains of N. H., to the snow clad peaks of Nevada and the glaciers of Yosemite and found them everywhere. I now find them here as well, but there is a more invigorating breeze than we usually have at home this Reason of the year. One misses the comforts and freedom of a good home where ever he or she travels but then the change of sightseeing will ever have its own peculiar attractions despite all home comforts.

This place has become quite a favorite resbrt for Southern people, hence I can judge of its political propensities. I have not ventured any remarks upon such subjects to but one person, whose good natured appearance I thought might stand the questiofis. He hails from Southern Illinois, is a banker and "votes for Hancock always." Ifalmost asked him how many votes he intended fo give for Hancock, as I did not knot but "always" meant mery time with Democrats, He asked me if I knew "Mr. McNeally, of the Express." I replied I dfdv Then he told me something and made me promise not to tell*, ain't you sorry I don't?

Well! I will tell you I am going to improve an invitation to take a ride with a Louisianian. I don't know whether I will tell you what he says or not. that depends but, if we go to the State Reform School and some other places. I will tell you what I saw.
