Thb Tiikologioal Seminary op Soot* Carolina.—We leamfrijm the Savannah Herald of Monday, that Bishop Davis, ofSouth Carolina, lias made an appeal in behalf of the Dioecsan Theological Seminary of that State, established at Camden. The Bishop states that the Semi nary buildings and a large portion of the library have been destroyed by fire, and that the per manent fund, amounting to nearly fifty thou sand dollars, was all lost during the progress of the late war. He also states that the effects of these misfortunes have been alleviated in some measure by a present to the Bishop and trus tees of a large and well adapted building and grounds, in Orangeburg, for the use of the pro fessors and students. The liberal donor is Mr. Trenholm, of Charleston, the ex-Secretary of the Confederate Treasury. But the trustees have no money with which to resume the exer cises of the. institution and hence the appeal of the Bishop for pecuniary assistance. Four thousand dollars are necessary to carry on the work this year; hut two hundred and fifty thousand dollars will he required to put the in stitution on a secure and permanent basis, if is proposed to establish a preparatory school for boys, which shall be of a high order, and in connection with the church. It is proposed also to carry out the resolution of the Diocese Convention, which authorizes the preparation of colored persons for the snored ministry of the church, and to provide for their education and training at schools or semiuaries, that the freed men in our midst may have their brethren of the same race to teach and to minister to them in holy tilings. The Bishop closes his letter by saying that in this vast country, with its fast increasing popu lation, a seminary of this character is needed at the South, to carry out these purposes. That the church calls for it and the country needs it. Donations can be sent to Bishop Davis, at Cam a den, or to A. Toqmer Porter, Charleston, S. C.

Butler “Cut Dead.” —The Wash ington correspondent of the Flew Orleans Picayune thus notices an incident that took place at the Bancroft oration on the? Lincoln anniversary. He says: “On thefloor of the House were the Judges of the Supreme Court, in their elegant and be coming black silk robes, the President of the United States and the Cabinet, the embassadors from foreign countries, all the distingished' offi cers of the army and navy in their rich uniforms, and the Senators and Repraseutatives. General Butler sat directly behind General Grant. Tbfire were three vacant arm chairs beside him; no body would sit, although every other chair on the floor of the House was occupied. Nobody went near him or spoke to him. All other per sons near himwvere the recipients of courtesies and civilities. Reverdy Johnson, Senator Har ris, of New York, Chief Justice "Chase and many more distinguished men, all grouped in that immediate vicinity, paid their respects ,to each other, to Gen. Grant and to Commodore Shubrick, but took not the slightest notice of him. It was the most complete cut ever saw.” Fiub Smouldering Ten Months.— On Fri day the negro laborers employed in clearing out the ruins of the building occupied during the war by the Confederate Post Office Depart ment', Richmond, discovered that the coal in the coal cellar was still on fire. We were in formed of the fact on good authority, Bays the Richmond Sentinel, but the statement seemed so remarkable that we made a personal exami nation of the spot, and after viewing the smoke and burning our fingers, we came away perfect ly cured of our skepticism. * That fire should smoulder in the ruins of a bullding' hdrned more than ten months ago, unquenched tyJ heavy rains or driving snow storms, seems little short of the marvelous, but unbelievers c*n easily be convinced by the »im- Lple test of experiment.

BY STOCKTON <fe CO BY .NIGHT’S MAIL v{J[ sJuw York, March 10.—-The World's Wash ingtnn special says : The House Judiciary Com mittee yesterday authorized their chairman to report an important bill, to restore possession of the lands confiscated by the authority of the States lately in rebellion. It provides that in ail cases when any loyal citizen of the United States lias disposed of auy lands or tenements belonging to him or her, within any of said States, by any order proceeding from or de cree of these States, on the ground of his or her adherence to the Union, or his or her ab sence or failure to give support to said States, it shall be the duty of the President, or the commanding officer of the military forces sta tioned within the particular State or district, to ipane an order setting forth all the facts in the case, and to restore to the person or persons so agrieved, the possession and right which they have been unjustly deprived of, and to protect them in such right. The Times’ Washington special says : Hon. R. Thomas, of Maryland, is preparing to make a claim before Congress in behalf of this State, for damages on account of burning two bridges on the route from Washington to Frederick City, destroyed by order of General Lew. Wal lace, at the battle of Monoeacy, in 1864. Gen eral Wallace, in response to enquiries from Mr. Thomas, says he ordered the burning of the bridges to retard Early’s march on Washing ton, by depriving him of facilities for crossing ■ the streams, and that Early was thus detained thirty-six hours. A second object was to tiring into action the force detailed to guard the bridges. The overpowering number of Early’s troops was making it impracticable to concen trate all the Federal forces to hold the rebels in cheek. . , Generals Custar and Fremont arrived in Washington yesterday. General Custar gives a rather glomy account of political affairs in Texas. There is little, if .any loyalty, outside our lines, and if our troops were withdrawn, there would be one anywhere. Greenbacks are but seldom acknowledged to have any value, and gold and .-.ilver are the cir culating medium in many places. Greenbacks will not buy anything. The idea that they will be redeemed is but seldom entertained. Matters are daily growing worse. Further consideration of the bankruptcy bill will te resumed in the House Wednesday or Thursday next. The friends of the bill have confidence in its passage. Several of the mem bers who) heretofore opposed thw bill having signified their intention oi supporting it. The Herald’s Washington special says: In the Supreme Court Mr. Stansberry, of Ohio, and Attorney General Speed closed their argu ments in lielialf of the Indian conspiracy ease. David Dudley Field, of New York, will sum up on Monday for petitioners. The 13th Connecticut Regiment, retained bj service at Savannah, claim that their term of service has been more-than fulfilled, and great irritation among the officers and men exists.— The 38th Illinois is in the same predicament. In the returns of Senator Howard another in stalment of testimony will be ready for publi cation, among which is that of several Generals. General Lee says that he always purposely avoided testifying. The Treasury Department yesterday received a telegram from Chicago announcing the death of Luther Havens, Collector of that port. His successor has not yet been appointed. Forty clerks were discharged from the Trea sury Department yesterday. New York, March 10.—William H. Cannon and James Mitchell, ag>al respectively 18 years, were arraigned yesterday on a charge of forgery. Cannon procured blnift checks from the print er of a firm in whose, employ he had been, and forged the name ol the firm to three cheeks for S3OO, $3,000, and $4,d00, on the Central Na tional Bank, and obtained the. two first named sums, but the third check was the cause of their discovery and arrest. John Casey, a saloon keeper, aud, Alex. Gray, were arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the scheme. The case is still iiudrr investi gation. Boston, March 10.—A grand Fenian demon stratum was held in the Music Tlull last eve ning. The capacious edifice was crowded to its utmost capacity, and thousands were turned away unable to gain admittance. Addresses were made by O’Malmny, Cant. MeCaftbrly. Military Envoy from Ireland, Air. Haggerty, of New York, T\ A. Sennot, hi,.). E. Fitzgerald. Central Organizer, and others. A series of res olutions were presented by J. MeDermot, of New York, which -were unanimously adopted. Great enthusiasm was manifested throughout the evening, and at its close a large amount of Fenian bonds were disposed of. Buffalo, N. Y., March 10.—Dispatches from Ctindß show great excitement there. Bishop Lynch has denounced the Fenian movement. — All passengers and their baggage coming into Canada are searched, and arms taken when 1 found. Express goods and freight trains will lie closely watched. The militia and volunteers are collecting in large numbers. Washington, March 10.— House. —The House is in Committee of flic Whole, nothing being in order but a general debate on the , President’s message. Mr. Orth, of Indiana, addressed the House j an hour, in defense of the course of Congress as against the policy of the President. Washington, March 10.—President Johnson has assured Geo. T. Downing, chairman of the colored delegation at present here, sent by the colored people of the States North and South, that no sudden change will take place affecting 1 the occupancy of the lands to which General Sherman gave the freedmen a possessory title. 1 The President suggested that the freedmen should continue to cultivate said lands. Mr. Downing has received letters from South Caro lina, from the parties interested, telling him of their fears, that they might be suddenly remov ed from the lands they were cultivating—fears which arose on the receipt of news of the veto of the Freedinen’s Bureau bill. When the fact was presented to the President lie gave the above assurances. Albany, N. Y., March 10.—A lire broke out at Bingliamptou at. oneo’cloek Friday, a. in., in the plow factory of J. E.

Dr. Lynch, Ro.’uan, Catholic Bishop ot Charleston, is now in this '.-tty lor the pur post* ol soliciting aid from the Catholics of New York, wherewith to rebuild some of the Cath olic institutions destroyed during the late w;ir. The Bishop spoke at St. Peter’s Cliureb, in Bar clay street, Sunday morning, and was met by a generous response from the congregation. In the evening he preached an eloquent dis course at, St. Andrews Church, in Duane street, the Rev. Father Curran, pastor. We give a synopsis of the Bishop's discourse at the latter place: My Brethren: The coming of Christ our Lord upon earth marks an era. in the history of man. It marks a battle which had been in pro gress for nearly two thousand years. Up to that time evil had prevaileclamong men, but the children of Adam forgot their father’s punish ment, and it required the deluge to purify the earth. The children of man bore within them the signs of fallen nature, but they soon forgot them and plunged into all manner of iniquity. Few men then worshipped the true God. These men, such as Job and Mcleliiscdeck, were among this class; but the whole mass of men were adoring falso gods and tijilowing evil ways. Up to the time of our Lord men had failed to battle against evil, or t o do much good. The twelve poor fishermen stood in the polish ed cities of Athens, Greece, and Rome, and their ascents conquered philosophers and others, who followed the pursuit of *cience. A new philosophy arose which, if schooled properly, enabled men to enter the Church. Although they were opposed at the time, these poor fish ermen were successful for a time. They induced men to give up the ordinary callings of life in order to obey the word of God. Said an ancient writer: We Christians are but of yesterday, and yet we fill your armies and ships. Soon the Christian Church was spread everywhere, and men were brought up iu accordance with the light of truth. Ignor ance and evil have been receding before God's holy truth. This has been wrought by (the hand of God, but by what means ? By means of His church which he established for the Christian world. Under the old law there was no church, but each father of the family was high priest of that family, and there was no bond of union; but Christ established a fold into which all might come, aud lie prayed that all his followers might be one; one faith, one Lord, one baptism. He established in it an or ganization as iu the body of man, every portion having its own obligations and its owu sphere of action. Hence it was that victory was ob tained. By the teaching of the church nations have received light and strength and wisdom. Eighteen centuries have seen her in the world. For three centuries the Church was persecuted almost until death. Who can tell how much the Christian suffered in those days —how many driven into dungeons, liow many were put to death by every torture that man’s ingenuity could devise? Some were tiediu sacks while others were tied to horses; others were smothered with pitch and put to death in flames. But there she stauds yet, giving praise to Gent for the vile leprosy that lias been taken from Christianity. But there came a time when the Church bat tled, through her doctors aud through her councils, at Nice, winning victory after victory; and she still continues now to strengthen our weakness, aud disclosing to us a bright glimpse of that glory, to which God destines us, if we be true to his laws ; she stands in the world a' miracle of history; stands, because she is and established by Christ our Lord. She will ever continue, even to the consummation of the world. Tfes, she! stands, though the Roman empire has passed*- away; she stauds ever the same, because she iff not of this world; but of the kingdom of God. He need not refer to the recent events that have Just closed to show that men may differ, nations may crumble, but the Catholic Church never. Her rites are the same in China as they are here; and although th* ministry there may not speak the same tongue, they will oelebrate the holy mysteries as they are celebrated else Whore. Tho Church has a kingdom of Heaven. She was born of God.— Thefirst practical work of the Christians was to aid oAe another; to aid the widows and orphans of th« land. The dearest letters which we have KflXk,; t \\ IIIv.i * “Pi™ Wnl iTI aCKIlvn rcll” - ment of these charities. The reverend bishop then referred to the j ■ education) of thc. uooplc of his own diocese, and Said he had come *tt> plead their eause to their brethren of New York. They had already heard of the condition of tilings ip the South, but they should see them to appreciate thttiii.— He had come, therefore, to pbapl the cause o£ Jesus Christ fiffio had taught charity, and who had made it incumbent oil us to'add onn anoth er. Shall I rehearse tlie sad story of all we have suffered? I shall pot, for I might detain' you too long. Tlte first bishop of Charleston had obtained an enviable’'reputation, afid thyy were all familiar - w ith Hie. history of Bishop England, who had done so much for the Catho lic Church- There were tup two priests at the time in ' the diocese, and two strangers who were abiding there for a short time.' They la bored assiduously for some time and most of them heard pf the success with which their la bors were attended. Bishop England had earned a name ampng the Catholics of the wbrid, and he deserved it, lor he was a no ble man. There lived no son of Erin truer than he, and whose heart would not throb with sensation when he heard the name of -Bishop England mentioned. But he is gone, he bus at last been laid in the tomtt He laid a/founelation broad and deep, of vast proportions, predicting the course which tlie Catbojic Cliureh should take in tills land. But there came another who labored, with great success, for eleven years, and who ended his life, worn out.by iris intense application to his duties. It then pleased Almighty God to select him (the reverend speaker) un worthily though he considered him self. He had been taught by the side of the first, and now he had little more to do than to follow out the plans they had undertaken. IlOw pro mising things at the South looked even six years ago, when the Bishop of New York, the lamented Bishop Hughes, came to Charleston for the purpose of regaining Ills health. Bishop Jlhghes had given him counsel and advice, and it wasTiot tlie first time he had done so, for in had been a father to him in the Church. Tin reverend speaker would tell him iiis diffi culties, and when sadder days came lp- knew lh.it Bishop Hughes would not cease that interest. And at his last visit how fair things looked. Then the speaker was engaged in building churches and other religious insti tutions which were destined for the service of God and to bring souls to Heaven. But how do tilings st>md now ? The Cathedral, once so magnificent, is now in ruins. Tlie seminary, too, is in ashes ; the hoys’ asylum also. Tin free school for poor children still remains. Tin- Convent of the Sisters of Mercy is shattered. The girls’ school is also gone.- Three ol tin churches were in such a condition that the peo ple could not enter them save at the risk of life. Others are stripped of everything. Others, again, have no altars and no scats. But there are still some churches in Charleston of which the reverend gentleman could trust himself to speak. But why go over this list of asylums and schools ? for what was it that was not lost? Every day men are appealing to him lor aid— old men, who pray that they may be given a church in which to worship God. But, said the speaker, feelingly, what can I do, stripped of everything ? I try to help them, hut ruin and di-sol.itiou lia.. swept away everything. Wheat 1 think of what hud been built up by forty years’ labor, and look around me and see what is lost, what a work there is before me I feel sad, almost de-pair. But what can I do? But, please God; a bishop cannot despair ; and I will again commence the work, in the name of God. He would appeal to the Christian heart or his brethren, who are oue with him in that fold.— Therefore, said the speaker, I have come to you,' my brethren, and I come with confidence, for I know that you Jove Christ here, iu this His holy Church, and remember that when J plead her cause I also plead yours, and I come, too, with the greater confidence in your kindness, because or the (iiVors which your archbiship lias giyn tom". I know that his promise will be made good, I know that it is made good. I came ligri- also pn the kind invitation ol the clergy , and especially on thafof your honored pastor. Tlie speaker here alluded to the cir (-umstanc-i s of seven poor Sisters of Alegcy, who had been four long years in t he hospital, among the sick and the wounded, and who had been here and received thegenerpus contributions of the faithful. Tie hoped I list tlie day would yet come w hen he would be able to repay die gen erous acts of charity and kindness which those Christian ladies had received. The reverend bishop then closed his remarks by giving his hearers his blessing. Tlie church was crowded in every part, and tlie sermon, ol which the above is a mere sketch, was listened to with attention. A Faithful Wifi:.—The fidelity ofawifeis illustrated in the following: At the February term of the Holmes county (Ohio) court, iii 1885, Samuel K. -McCoy was convicted of bur glary ami sentenced to live yer« imprisonment in the penitentiary. Ills wife declared from the Gust lii.-v innocence, and made every effort to have tjiis made evident. Since February last she has visited the prison twenty times, never once lost faith in her husband, or wearied of efforts iu bis behalf. On Tuesday a pardon was granted, upon additional and newly discovered evidence confirmatory of an alibi, in which it was proved that, he was thirty miles from where the burglary was committed at the lime speci fied. A terrible catastrophe occurred recently in Cronstadt, and occasioned the loss of fifty-four lives. At half-past two In the morning, a wood en buildiug, constructed op Battery No. 10, serving as a habitation for 250 workmen, took fire, and was in a tew moments involved in flames. There were three doors to the build ing, but only one was unlocked, and this opened inward. The unfortunate men, pressing for ward in crowds, kept it closed, and it had at length to be broken down, but rtliv-fonr men had already perished. The rest were rescued with great difficulty.
