Chloroform Accidents. —This is a field quite unexplored—-the lapse of time that may occur in suspended animation. It is curious that, in animals drowned in water, the evil results chiefly from the plunging or struggling of the animals; but cecterisjMtri 4us, an animal wt 11 under chloroform, and thrown into water, is not destroyed for a much longer period. The plunging in the former instance fills the lung-tissues with water, and reanimation is very difficult after six or eight minutes; but under chloroform probably a state of partial hybernation is established, and efforts for reanimation should be continued for four hours at least in all hospital cases. The condition of the diaphragm iu suspended animation, as al ready said, is particularly important. Gal vanism through the prosaic nerve is most essential. A needle should be passed also, as just said, through the diaphragm, as punctures of this muscle will restore animals apparently dead from apoca. The “Silves- ter method ” of raisiug the arms, so as to make the pectoral muscles and their iudigi tations to lilt the ribs, is the best plan yet known of promoting artificial respiration. By this method as much as forty-four to fifty cubic inches of air (sufficient, perhaps, for ordinary breathing,) pass through the chest; hut in the most popular or “ ready ” methods, about ten. I have urged this point for many years, but it has been disregarded. — [Dr. Kidd's Work on Chloroform. An Elegant Work of Art.— We have been favored with the sight of an •elegant specimen of Indian work, in the shape of a smoking cap, which is about to be forwarded to the Bazaar now in progress in Liverpool, England, for the purpose of siding sick and wounded soldiers iu the Confederate service. The beautiful sample of Indian work is comprised principally of uinurnarahle tiny heads, worked into various elegant designs, and the whole is the handy work es a Squaw located near Fredericton, N.

Mrs. Jobn Sinclair, of this city, is the donor of this really elegant and valu able contribution to a truly benevolent effort for the amelioration of the suffering patriots of the Southern Confederacy. Halifax (AT. S.) Heporter, Sept. Ist. THE PACIFICATOR —A. CATHOLIC JOURNAL. SUNDAY REVERY. 11 V JANES It. RANH ALL. Beyond my dingy window pane, This beamy Sunday morn, I watch the red-breast on the vane And the ravens robbing corn ; Hard by, the Alabama boils Its sallow flood along, With drift-wood biers and lorest spoils— A melancholy throng! The rich horizon melts away To an illumined arch, With Summer tresses all astray Upon the brows of March ; The birds, inebriate with glees, Seem happiest when they sing, Thrilling the aromatic trees With symphonies of Spring. The pulse of Nature throbs anew, Impassioned of the San ; The violet, with eyes of blue, Is modest as a nun. The roses reek not of the strife That crashes up the North; — Alas ! the mockery of Life When Death is striding forth. An alien in this lovely land, I sound an alien strain, Until my own fair State shall stand Inviolate again; The long-lost Pleiad of our sky Is glimmering still afar, Ami nations yet shall see on high That bright and blessed star. The church bells toll their solemn chime From out the minster eaves, Knelling some old religious rhyme, Half stifled by the leaves. A thousand miles away, I hear Those grand Cathedral notes. Which made my youth a fairy sphere, With cymbal-clashing throats. Vibrating to each sturdy tone, My soul remembers well The mild Madonna’s statue-stone Within its ivory cell; The ritual read, the chaunting done— The belfry music rolled, And all my faith, like Whittington, Was iu the tales it told! And, oh ! I feel as men must feel Who have not wept for years; Upon my cheek behold the seal Os consecrated tears. A mighty .Sabbath calm is mino That baffles human love; A resurrection of Lang Syne— A guiltless child once more ! And Mother’s school-boy with his mimes This beamy Sunday morn, Forgets the grim, tumultuous timcß That hardened him in scorn Forgets terrific ocean days Beyond the tropic gates, Where the Magellan clouds down-gaze On Patagonian Straits. Ho nothing heeds the long despair Within the savage swamp, The jungle and the thicket where The serpent tribes encamp ; lie little heeds the dream of Fame, Its treason or its trust, The hope of a sonorous name— A requiem from the dust. But, oh, he heeds elysian hours That hint of Long Ago ! Those dreamful days iu College towers Ho never more shall know— The home he never more may see, A Paradise to him— The books he read at Mother’s knee When her dear eyes grew dim ! 0 Mother— Mother ! Years must fleet Along the battle traca, Ere yet thy lonely heart can greet Its weary wanderer back— A deathless love these tears bespeak, For thy devo-tion shed, v With thy pure kisses on my cheek, Thy blessing on my head ! CATHOLIC INTELLIGENCE. DOMESTIC. The Memphis Evening Times says that the interesting ceremony of laying the cor ner stone of the German Catholic Church, came off on the 27th ult. The proceedings commenced with grand High Vespers at St. Peter’s and Paul’s Church; the Revs. P. V. Adelan, T. L. Powers and B. V. Carey officiating, with the assistance of the choir, in connection with several well known singers who volunteered their services for the occasion. Every pew in this spacious building was occupied, and a large number present were unable to procure seats, so at tractive were the solemn and imposing pro ceedings. After these services, a procession was formed on Adams street, opposite the church, consisting of those of the denomi nation present, and the following companies of the Bth lowa regiment, furnished by Col. Geddis, as an escort of honor : Company C, Lieut. 11. B. Cooper; Company li, Capt. Ryan, and Company 11, Lieut. S. Smith — the whole in command of Capt. Wells of the same regiment. After forming, the pro cession proceeded up Third street in the following order: A lad in surplice, hearing an emblem of the crucifixion ; two associates, of the same ago and similarly robed, bearing acolytes; the pupils of the Christian Brothers and Sisters of Charity Schools; the choir of tho German Catholic Church; the band of the German Philharmonic Club; the Society of the B. V. M.; Fathers Adelan, Powers, Carey and Thomas; tho Military in pla toons ; the members of the churches, citi zens and spectators. The site of the new Church is the south west corner of Third and Market streets, and arriving here the choir and hand in concert coining need the solemn chant of the Benediction, “ Firin' Creator," having taken position on a staging erected for the pur pose within the under-structure of the church, and being surrounded with an audience of several thousand persons. At the conclusion of this initiatory chant, Father Carey, ascending a pulpit constructed suitably for the occasion, ad dressed those around him in an eloquent, learned and appropriate manner, taking his text from Matthew XVI, “Thou art Peter, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against thee;” after which Father Adelan continued the ceremony of the Benediction, with the “ Qui deleeta” at the west end of (lie under-masonry, concluding which lie proceeded to the northeast corner of (he structure and set the stone in position, scratching with a blade a cross on three of its corners. Thu “ Kgrie Eleison ” was next chanted by Father Thomas and the choir, during which the stone was fixed in its proper place with cement, and after which tho “Kisi. DomiituS” was chanted, the clergy in the meantime walking over the foundation wall and sprinkling it witli holy water, after which was chanted the ■“ Miserere met Dens.” The ceremony of the Benediction was now concluded by the chanting of the “ Enndamcnta Ejus,” at the north-east corner of the wall, after which the hand played “ Oassen (rott,” and, Father Thomas ascending the pulpit, delivered an address in the German language. The procession now reformed and pro ceeded back to the St. Peter’s and St. Paul’s Church, at which place the occasion termi nated and the throng separated. A salute, was fired, both at the beginning and conclu sion of the ceremony by a section of two guns from the 7th Wisconsin battery, for which, with other manifestations of respect on the part of tho military, much credit and kind feeling is due from the church. FOREIGN. The following is.the address which tho Roman Catholic Congress at Malines has voted to the Pope: To his Holiness, Pope Pins IX. Most Holy Father!—More faith ful even to the unanimous suggestion of their hearts than to the voice of duty, the Catholics assembled at Malines inaugurate their labours by prostrating themselves humbly at the feet of the Vicar of Jesus Christ. Attached to the Holy Roman See, mother and mistress of all the churches, by tho bonds of a slrict obedience, and by tho most filial love, we come, most Holy Father, to offer to you, divinely predestined to the earo of the sheep and of the lambs, to the government of the pastors and of tho faith ful, the respectful expression of these senti ments. We recognise solemnly in all their plentitude the rights of your supreme au thority. You are the priest par excellence; the incorruptible guardian and the infallible interpreter of the Divine verities ; the pilot of that mystic vessel which leads humanity regenerated by the blood of Jesus Christ to the shore of its eternal destinies. At tho same time as your spiritual power we recog nize, also, most Holy Father, tho temporal power which is its providential bulwark. The more the pontifical royalty is attacked and misunderstood tho more ardently we apply ourselves to its defence—the more we condemn the sacriligeous usurpations of which it is tho object, the more closely we rally ourselves around tho Holy See—the fruitful and inexhaustible source of truth and of justice, against which the league of the unbelieving and the impious has for ages used its efforts. Assembled at Malines to cement the union of the, Catholics, to develop Catholic works, to co-operate, in the degree which becomes laymen, for the defence of our mother church, we proceed to open our second session by this solemn profession of our faith, of our submission, of our lore. May it be received with kind ness by your Holiness, and ootain lor us one of those paternal benedictions which give to hearts with good intentions confi dence, strength, and peace, aud havispread themselves from the time of St. Fetter to that of l J ius IX' as a beneficent dew urbi ct orbi, over the city ami over the world. The submissive aud respectfully devoted Sons of your Holiness. The Bishop of Orleans, in his address to the Congress, stated that his visit was oc casioned by the deplorable defeat of the clerical party in the elections in Belgium. ‘’The hour of adversity,” he said, “is the hour for salutary counsels, generous reso lutions, and faithful friendships.” liis ad dress was devoted to the suhject.of popular education. The sole idea which he entorced uj/on the audience was, that secular educa tion was not only indissolubly connected with religious, but that it must, always bo communicated by the priesthood. Conse quently, he urged them to open their purses and their hearts towards increasing the number of convents by which the education of the people should he conducted. One of the speakers at tho Congress, M. dc Kerk kove, who was received with very great enthusiasm, urged that a great nationality ol'faith ought to ho organized in the world, of which Romo should be the centre, the heart, and the head. Differences of race, or the rights of kings; were of no importance ; the sole sovereign should be the Rope.

President Davis readied Richmond Thursday, •• iu good health and spirits.” The City Council of Columbus, Ga., has appropriated ten thousand dollars to assist tho poor of that city iu paying rent. Tiie printers of Richmond, Va., are mostly in the trenches around that city, hence the papers seem to have a hard time of it. It is reported that the position of Treasu rer of the Confederate States has been ten dered to John B. Heudreu, Esq., of Staun ton, Va. Gen. Magritdeu has been relieved of the command of the district, of Texas. He is succeeded by Gen. Walker, a native of Missouri. The Confederates captured Farmington, Missouri, on the 20th ult. The Abolition troops made a stubborn resistance, hut were finally forced to yield. Federal prisoners taken by Early admit that Sheridan was reinforced by 10,000 men from Atlanta, who helped to' achieve the victory at Winchester. Much sickness is reported among the enemy at New Orleans and at Baton Rouge. The j-ellow fever is also prevailing at Key West and the Tortugas. Gen. Pegram is in command of Early’s old division. Gen. llauiseur, who has been commanding Early’s division, has been as signed to the command of ltode’s division. The next or second session of the second Congress of the Confederate States will commence in Richmond on Monday, the 7t.k of November—three weeks from next Monday. The Appeal's Grenada correspondent says the President sent General Forrest fifteen hundred fine English carbines last week, for his men, as an appreciation of their service during tltu past few months. Gov. Allen, of Louisiana, recognizing the powerful and beneficial influences of the press, has imported paper enough to keep them all going for a year, and exempted all the printers from State suffice. It is stated that there are now more than one hundred officers iu the Confederate army in active service with hut one leg apiece. The gallant Gen. Hood has not only one leg, hut only one arm. The New York World’s Matamoras cor respondent says: Cortiuas captured at Brownsville one million dollars worth of goods, and also captured at Lodoval, in Texas, between 2,900 aud 3,000 hales of cotton. Trains now run regularly over the Mobile and Ohio Railroad to Corinth. The Memphis and Charleston road is used for a, distance of nearly fifty miles in the direction of Chattanooga. That whole country is free from the enemy. The Alabama Senate has passed a hill putting all able-bodied residents of the State, between seventeen and tiny years of age, without exception, into the second class militia, and especially declares that members of the Legislature shall not be exempted by any act. Gen. John Iv. Jackson is at present in Savannah. He has been relieved from his command iu Florida, and ordered to report to Lieutenant General Hardee for duty, lie is succeeded by General William Miller, of Florida, who lias been recently promoted to the ofiiee of Brigadier General. We learn that Gen. Beauregard and stall' passed through Opelika recently, on his way to tho Tennessee army to assume the command, and we are highly gratified to be able to state, on good authority, that he will personally direct the movements aud opera tions of the army until tho fail campaign shall have been fully closed, we trust, with the most perfect and brilliant success. The Richmond Whig states that the de partment to which Gen. Beauregard has just been assigneil, commences at Augusta, iu North-cast Georgia, and extends in all irregular line a South-easterly direction, including a part of Florida, the whole of Alabama, Mississippi and East Louisiana. It embraces, of course, North Georgia and the armies commanded by Gens. Hood and Taylor. From information which we have' received, says the Christian Hun of the 7th, we think j there is little or no doubt that a fleet is now j forming between Norfolk and the Old Point i to attack Wilmington. Among the number j of vessels seen by our informant there are ' two very formidable monitors. That au \ attack at an eaily day upon Wilmington is j contemplated we feel almost certain, aud • hope the authorities may be fully prepared 1 for it. We are informed that sixteen hundred and sixty-five exiles, aud their baggage, weighing six hundred and twenty-five thou sand one hundred pounds, were shipped from Lovejoy, Ga., during tho ten days, truce, to points iu the rear, not furtherthau Millen, Ga., on the one hand, and Opelika on the other. The Confederate States Gov ernment furnished free transportation to all the families aud individuals sent out of Atlanta, aud from points near and beyond there. Ten days were occupied in their transportation. A list of the heads of all the families sent out, and where they went to, has been kept. Any one wishing to know the whereabouts of their friends can ascertain by writing to Major John S. Britus ford, Transportation Quartermaster, Army of Tennessee. — Appeal. FOREIGN.

Vast oil wells have been discovered at Guadeloupe, Mexico, second only to those in Pennsylvania. The Spanish Government has banished Gen. Prim to Oviedy, which will hereafter be his place of residence. Reversed prisoners express the opinion that Mr. Lincoln will certainly bo re-elected. Such is the prevailing opinion in Richmond The Chamber of Deputies of Wurtemhurg has fixed the aunuai income of their King at 778,800 florins’, or about $389,400, besides a vast amount of wheat, rye, barley. Oats and wood. A letter received from a prominent General in Sherman's army, says : “What I have heard to-day settles tho question of Mr. Lincoln’s election beyond a doubt. Tho army is a unit for Lincoln.” The elections iu Pennsylvania have re sulted in favor of the Democrat’s; those in Ohio and Indiana for the Republicans. Maryland lias given 3,000 majority against, the new Constitution, but it is thought that the soldiers’ vote will adopt it. A Wisconsin paper says that times are very hard in Canada. No business, and wages insufficient to pay hoard. The coun try is overruu with skedaddlers from the United States and the Confederacy, whilq thousands of Canadians are leaving for the States to procure work.

The Irish Legion, which was raised for Corcoran, and succeeded the Irish Brigade, commanded by Meagher, now scarcely num bers one-third of a full regiment. Nearly all of tho 155th were taken prisoners in one of the battles around Petersburg, aud at present there are hut twenty-seven men iu the 107th regiment! The Palrie publishes the following tele gram from Hamburg: “The Russian He reditary Grand Duke Nicholas Alexandro vitek has left to-day for Copenhagen, where his betrothal with the Princess Maria Dag mar, second daughter of King Christian, is to be celebrated.” The Prince is twenty-one years of age, aTid the Princess seventeen. The Irish Royal Agricultural Society’s annual show took place in Sligo August 31st. Notwithstanding that the weather was rather unfavorable, rain falling almost without intermission, the yard in which the show was held contained a large number of visitors, and the trains which reached the town during the day brought fresh acces sions. The bauquet came off in the Court house the same evening, the Right Hon. John Wynne in the chair. The principal speakers were Colonel Knox Gore, the Earl of Erne, and Mr. G. W. Monsell. The London Morning News gives an ac count of a woman named Sarah Boyce, arrested in Drogheda, Ireland, for stripping the clothes from children in the street, to pawn the various articles of dress. The woman threatened to throw one of tho children into the river Boyne because the little creature cried. The easo was investi gated before a magistrate, and the woman was committed for trial. Two of the little girls stripped were the children of a widow woman named Carroll, aud another a daugh ter of a tradesman by the name of Carroll. It was with difficulty that the police pre vented summary vengeance being wreaked upon the prisoner. Census of Italy. — The Italian gov ernment has just published the result of a census taken since the annexations. It, contains some curious facts. The kingdom of Italy contains a population of 21,777,334 souls- 11, is, consequently, the fifth Power in Europe as regards its inhabitants ; supe rior to Spain, of which the territory is twice as extensive, aud to Prussia, of which the area is likewise greater. Were the unity of Italy accomplished, its population would amount to 27,0000,000. The average population of a'commune iu Italy is 2,821 inhabitants, while the average in France is only 978 inhabitants* There are nine com munes in three hundred square kilometres. In France, on the contrary, there are eigh teen in a similar space. The population is most crowded iu the south of the Island of Sardinia; it is least numerous in the Marches and in the .'Emilia. Italy contains on an average eighty-four inhabitants to the square kilometre—a figure higher than that of France or Prussia, hut lower thau that of England, Holland or Belgium. Lombardy and Sicily are tho provinces in which the population has increased most rapidly of late years. Sardinia and the Neapolitan provinces come next. The in crease of population has been much slower iu Piedmont. The wars of 1840 and 1859 have tended to this result, Dying Like a Gentleman. —A gen tleman who has been around the world in the old navy mentioned to us lately a queer custom prevalent, or said to bo prevalent among the high mandarins iu China. They occasionally commit suicide. It is a part of the etiquette of the country. .For in stance, if Mean-Fun is charged with the defence of the city of Long-Tung, and fails in said defence, he is bound, as a gentle man, not only to kill himself, hut to kill his grand mother and his wife's grandmother, and his wife and his children, and his brother-in-law, and his brothers, and his father, anil his mother, and his wife’s father andemother, and his uncles, and his aunts, and his nephews, and his neices, and hi# cousins, and a host of other people, to save them being killed by the common execu tioner. But the queer thing is the way the high mandarin takes to go off himself. He | swallows gold leaf; and, so the report say si, i he soon gets as dead as any Chinese gentle man c.ould desire. We don’t know how :t works, and we don’t think it will become popular in the Confederacy. Dying iu such a gorgeous style is altogether beyond our means at the existing premium. Wo cannot recommend it on the score of econo my.—Wilmington Journal. , 11
