crowd in front. Having kicked off the amps and candles as a playful preliminary he individual in question straightened himself up, and, fixing his gaze with an air of drunken gravity on the crowd, exclaimed, 5n a tone of firm conviction, " Upon me sowl I believe ye're aU drunk, every man of ye " Having delivered himself of this remarkable sentiment, he jumped" down off tha table, amid roars of laughter, and a cry of " Hencore," from a number of small boys congregated round about, to whom the spectacle appeared to afford immense rfplicht The amusement was heightened by °a 'respectable-looking man stepping forward, and exclaiming with great earnest ness "That's a sober man, Mr Chairman ;• that's a sober man ;" whereat the crowd laughed prodigiously. The respectable looking man again earnestly endeavoured to impress upon the meeting that the Interrupters were all sober men. At this point the Hibernian gentleman, probably thinking it necessary to give a further proof of his sobriety, again leaped on the table, flourishing his stick about more excitedly than ever, and making profuse bows towards the chairman aud Mr Hutchison. Some one from the crowd below was next observed making darts at the excited gentleman s •legs, with a view of making him descend ; but he was beaten off by the stick,aml made a politic retreat. Next the " slush lamp was thrown at an unfortunate man by some one near the chairman. It struck him on the back, and well nigh smothered him with melted fat. Tin's missile was immediately followed by a chair, which also took effect on the unhappy individual, who still managed, in spite of all these drawbacks to position, to hold his ground. Then some body in the crowd pulled away one of the tressles from under the table, and it came down with a crash. The next instant he was seen hitting out wildly at the crowd with his stick, and the majority fled in all directions, nearly trampling over each other in their haste. A. number, however, stood their ground, and after a few minutes' fighting the belligerent found himself over powered, and had to give in.

FATHER HENNEBEREY'S MISSION.

SUNDAY SERMONS IN THE

MARQUEE.

The Rev. Father Henneberry, Catholic missionary, commenced the real business of his mission in the large marques erected in Mr Dignan's paddock, yesterday mom ing. The building, which had been erected with remarkable energy, was calculated to contain 4,000 persons, and in addition many respectable members of various Protestant denominations were assembled outside. The main entrance to the build ing was thronged by an eager crowd anxious to secure admittance at the earliest moment. Shortly before 11 o'clock the children of St. Mary's Orphanage, neatly attired, and marshalled by Messrs Cunning ham, Darby, and other gentlemen, Avith the teachers, were conducted into the building j and a few minutes later the doors were thrown open. The vast crowd then entered the building by every avenue, speedily occupying almost all the available sittings. The arrange ments were of the most careful charac ter, exhibiting forethought and skill in the management of large audiences. Members of the congregation were stationed at every point to conduct the operation of seating the thousands who poured into the building. High Mass was celebrated —Very Rev. Father Fynes, cele brant, assisted by Rev. Father Henneberry as deacon, and Rev. Father Walter McD onald assistant. The whole service was most solemn and impressive, and the utmost order prevailed throughout. The responses were beautifully performed by the choir ; and it was good to the heart even of a mere uusectarian journalist to hear the grand and solemn music of the old masters swelling and reverberating throughout the building. When the service was concluded the Rev. Father Henneberry opened his discourse by requesting the people, many of whom had pushed up to the front and were standing, to sit down. In the coursegof his remarks the rev. father said : "You will be tired of standing before the sermon is over.o Let those who are in the building now remain until the end of the service." This will explain the rev. gentle man's remonstrance at a later stage, when many persons disturbed the sermon, and distracted the preacher's thoughts by continually walking in and out of the building. The rev. gentleman expressed his great joy at the vast assemblage, and went on to say that God had many and great graces in reserve for the city of Auckland and its yicinity in connection with the mission. He then explained his reasons for providing the marquee, in order to furnish accommodation for the Catholics of Auckland to worship God ; and said the present large assemblage was a proof that the people of Auckland were ripe for his mission. If ever there was a time when missfons were necessary it was now, when men regarded wealth and the gratification of sensual desires as the great aim of their existence. There were proved to be 130,000,000 of souls on the earth, and out of these Satan was reaping a rick harvest. Eighty thousand human beings died every; day,-and how many, of these were run into hell and condemned for all eternity! Nevertheless he knew that a great many good Catholics were present, hough ,he had heard bad accounts of Auckland, and had not come here with favourable impressions of the place. But the congregation to-day showed that the representations made to him were not exactly correct. The present mission was designed to reach sinners who could not be

reached by any ether means. Missions were necessary, because it was absolutely necessary for all men to save their souls.

A BREAKDOWN.

" During a subsequent part of the discourse one of the seats suddenly broke down, but the rpy. preacher reassured the assemblage. He said :—"Do not move if a seat breaks down. All is right here. The ground will not sink. We have given missions when great crowds had nothing else to sit on but mother earth. Do not look in that direction when a seat breaks down. We will mend it again." He then went on to trace the duties of men to God, and the purposes of existence, and he appealed solemnly to those who were livino in sin not to "go into the hell of the damned for ever and ever." Men were made to serve God and to save their souls, andif they served the world their end was terrible. There were many men who knew all about the politics of the day, and knew aIJ about the affairs of the world, but were negligent of the salvation of their souls. The preacher strongly denounced the habit uf blaspheming, and said " the yawning pit of hell was open to engulf sinners, and the devil was trying to drag them into the hell of the damned," and keep them for ever and ever." 'GRAPHIC PICTURE. He drew a graphic picture of a mortal sinner standing at the last day before the Judgment-seat of God,with the devils drag ging his soul to the place of torment, and his guardian angels, and possibly his Bit hop and teachers, on the other side—blameless of his condemnation, but sorrowing for his neglect of their teachings! The sinner, he said, could uot blame them but would be angry with himself for his neglect of their teachings, and would cry to God for another opportunity of redemption, when "the night would come,when no man can work." The rev gentleman went on to say : " When he goes into the hell of the damned,when he is enveloped in the flame* of hell, when he finds the gates of hell are closed upoa him, Great God ! what will he do ?" He referred to the parable of the Foolish Virgins, and illustrated it by knocking on the pulpit. A DISTURBANCE. At a subsequent stage of the sermon, some of the congregation at the back com menced to leave the building, at which the priest remonstrated. He said: "Why did you come here if you did not mean to stay? (Someone had fainted.) Of course, j if any one is sick, they Avill be cared for, j but 1 will not tolevpte persons standing up j and going out in the midst of the sermon. When you come here, keep order, and do J not disturb the others. This is the last I time I will refer to it. If I have to refer to i it again, I will make it hot for those who i disturb the congregation." The rev. gentle- | man then adduced further proofs of the ! necessity of missions, in order to awake those who are living in mortal sin. He said he saw by the countenances of many in the congregation that they were sad, but before two weeks were over he would see their faces radiant with joy— that joy which the j blessing of God would bring. He then referred to the extraordinary graces which : accompany revival movement. He related j an anecdote of 20 years ago, in his j experience in Hamilton, Ohio, of a : man who had not been to the confessional between. 1537 and 1841. In California he (the rev. father) had spent ten | years of his mission, and had preached the Gospel of Christ in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, 6,000 ft. above the level of the sea. He related how a Catholic was confessed there who said he had not been at the confessional since the year before the missionary was born (laughter), and that man was two and sixty years old. On the West Coast of the i Middle Island he had met a Catholic who ' said he had travelled all the world over, j and joined every religion everywhere except the Turkish." He said :" I could never swallow that. He (Father Henneberry) asked : " What were you in Ireland ?" He j replied : " Oh, I was a Catholic, and an | Irishman at that; and though I denied my j religion, the reason was I wanted to enjoy { the gratification of my sensual habits. I j said in one place I was a Jew, and in another that IJwas a Gentile ; but now I | want to go to Heaven, and I want you to hear me." That man's confession was heard by the Bishop of Wellington, and the sinner was kept a long time. I The rev. preacher then compared the mis- | sion to the Jewish Jubilee, but guarded I his hearers against the literal interpretation of the Scripture as applied to the present age. He referred to the duties of Fast Days, and went on to say that if he had to find room for all the sinners ia Auckland ten acres would not be sufficient. He created much amusement by giving a prac tical illustration of the love of wealth. He said if it Avere announced that £100 would be given morning and evening to every person who attended the marquee what a rush there would be! And yet the for giveness of their sins would be far beyond any forgiveness of debt in the world. THE EVERLASTING FIRE. He then addressed himself to atheists. He said: "Do not deceive yourselves. When God speaks he is infallible. Well, God says there is a Hell, and that the wicked shall 20 into everlasting lire. It is true. So sure as God exists the man who commits mortal sin goes into Hell for all eternity if he dies in that state." The preacher, drew a graphic sketch of the great kindness of God to forgive the most enormous sins, and said the present mission would bring unprecedented happiness to Auckland. He related ancedotes which we may find space for in a future issue of Catholics who had refused to attend his mission, and had been suddenly struck dead. He delivered an eloquent and stirring exhortation to parents, and related

THE STOKY OF THE LITTLE GIRL, who was seen by the priest in tears in the midst of the congregation. The priest went down into the congregation and said " What is the matter my child, tell me the cause of yonr sorrow ?" The child's heart was too full, and she gave no answer. But the priest insisted on an answer, and she said " I have a bad father, he spends Iris time in drunkenness, in swearing, in blasphemy, and all kinds of wickedness, and when the whole congrega tion is "attending this mission, he will not come. He spends his time in cursing. I fear when I am in Heaven I shall look down and see my poor father in Hell! That is what breaks my heart. I fear he will be damned." The preacher went on to des cribe how the maa was awakened, and was seen attending the mission, and appealed to the members of his congregation to bring each a sinner with them, especially the " old topers." The peroration was characterised by great force. He quoted the New Testament story of the raising of Lazarus, and appealed to sinnei's "who had been dead and buried, and rotten in the grave of sin," to "Come out." The Rev. Father Henneberry concluded with an eloquent benediction. THE .EVENING SERVICE.

At the seven o'clock vespers there were about 4,000 persons present, as carefully estimated. We have not space to notice the Rev. Father Henneberry's lecture, which, as in the morning, was remarkable for stirring appeals, humour contrasted with pathos, and original anecdote. He strongly denounced sinners, but promised plenary indulgences to all those who attended as many sermons as possible, and confessed and partook of Com munion. The service concluded with the benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. This evening at 7. SO Father Henneberry will deliver a discourse on confession. . :

THE TELEGRAPHISTS AT MOTUIHI.

Yesterday morningl, a boat containing Messrs Salmon; JNorrie; McLean, Bruce, Ellis, and •Brrington, px-oceeded toMotuihi, in search of the missing telegraphists. On arrival there, they found the objects of their search safe under the protection of Mr Barnsley. One of them was raking for pippies on the beach; two were out shooting ; one smoking dock leaves in a pipe; and another, in imitation of King Alfred, was turning cakes, and attending to the cooking of several attractive and savoury dishes prepared by Mra Barnsley. They were all in high spirit^

and refused to leave, stating as their reason, that bound "amateur tars." On the way up it took the police boat and its companion in tow. The Bar IWaSl WaS VGry hos Pitfiblr entertained by __?■
