CONSECRATION OF JEWISH SYNAGOGUE.

The ceremonial consecration of the new and handsomo Jewish Synagogue lately erected in Princesetreot took place yester day afternoon, the Rev. Samuel A. Gold, stein being the officiating Rabbi. Adtnis i-iui waa by ticket only, and as the invita tions had been freely issued, the building was thronged both on the ground floor nnd in tho gallery, quite as many Geniiles as Jowr being present. Books containing the order of seii-ice, printed both in Hebrew and English, were circulated, and the sequenco of the pages from right to left proved as novel to the Gentile portion of tho congregation as the injunction to the males to koop on their hats. The servico opened with a voluntary played upon the harmonium by Mr Alfred Bartloy, who was stationed with the choir in the gallery. After this, the inner doors of the Synagogue wero thrown opon, and four young men woro diaclosod to view standing at the threshold, each bearing a pole supporting a canopy of crimson volvot heavily fringod with gold. Tho Rabbi and the officers of tho Hebrew congregation, with silken shawls around their shoulders and carrying in their arms tho scrolls of the law wrapped in gold-embossed white satin and ornamented with gold bells and silver pointore,inoved into position from tho outer corridor under the canopy, where upon the Rabbi, having first exclaimed in Hebrew, " Open unto mo the gates of righteousness; I will enter them, and praise the Lord," paused under the canopy, and with the choir chanted the following portion of one of the Psalms : —"How goodly are thy tents, 0 Jacob ! thy taber nacles, 0 Israel! 0 Lord ! I have ever loved the habitation of thy house, and the dwelling-placo of thy glory. We will came into thy tabornacle3, and worship at thy footstool." The procession of Rabbi and officers slowly passed up tho Synagogue, still under tho canopy which waa borne along with them. While the procession was moving along, tho Rabbi, assisted by an efficient choir, sang a metrical transla tion of anothor Psalm. Arrived before the ark, tho procession stopped, and the Rabbi proclaimed, "Hear, 0 Israol, the Eternal is our God ; tho Etornal is One. Our God is a Unity. Great is our Lord whoso namo is the Most Holy." Still bearing tho scrolls, but no longer ac companied by the canopy, the Rabbi and the oiiicers tlion passod seven times slowly round tho raised rostrum in tho centre of tho Synagoguo in tho following order:—l. Tho Rabbi; 2. Mr Arthur N. Nathan (President).; 3. Mr Moss M. Levy (Treasurer); 4. Mr P. A. Philips; 5. Mr Ralph Keosing. During each circuit tho Rabbi recited a psalm in Hebrew, those selected being the 30th, 43rd, 100th, 127th, 117th, 130th, and 24th. The latter Paalm was effectively sung by the yioir. Aftor this tho Rabbi and officors repaired with tho scrolls to the front of the ark, where tho Rabbi offered up in English tho prayor for the Queen and Royal Family, and also another prayor,soveral verses from tho Psalms wore rocitod, and tho scrolls woro then placed within tho ark. This concluded tho ceremonial proper. Imme diately aftorwards a solo and trio from the Psalms woro tastefully sung by Mrs Gold stein and Mrs Moss Davis, and Mrs Alexander, Mrs Goldstein taking the solo. Tho Rabbi then mounted his ros trum and proceeded to address his con grogation, Ho said that for months past their thoughts and onorgios had been consocrated upon tho orocting of a fitting tetrnlo to tho Most High. Their follow citizens had helped them most liberally, and they now behold tho fruition of their labours. Their first duty was there foro to return thanks to tho Givor of all Good for having spared them to witnesß anothor epoch-making event in their annals as a Jowish community. But they should not bo too elato. Tho advantages of public worship woro manifest, but under tho high proasuro of this 19th century life we woro apt to forgot that wo nero of a dual nature — spiritual and matorial—and that tho former was not to bo rondored subaorvient to the latter. In that temple rich and poor, sound and de cropid, strong and weak, met upon a com mon platform to offor thanksgiving to their God, to hear the truths of thoir religion ex pounded and oxpatiated upon, to improve thoir lives, to cultivate the intellect, to practise virtuo, to learn that benevolonce ia tho most sacred of duties, that charity is tho highest form of divine worship, that religion is not ascoticism, that piety is not austerity, and that creeds must not erect any barriers between mn and man. The preacher wont on to make a comparison botwecu the fugitivo condition of tho Jews in former and harsher times with their pros porous stato in these daye of enlightenment. Ho impressed upon his boarers that great advantages entailed great responsibilities. What would onablo thorn to maintain thoir faith pure and undimmed in the face of multiplying temptation ? Tho answer was moral courago, which might bo interpreted as a renunciation of all their most chorished plans when they woro pre judicial to the interists of Judaism. Judaicm was opposed to self-righteousness. It taught that ho who fulfils conscientiously the will of God stands on a level with the high priest. Its whole aim was the estab lishment of tho kingdom of justice and peace. Ono of their writers had well said that if a man would bo free from sin, his heart must bo opened to enlightenment and his passions must bo subduod. Aftor holding up the example of Sir Moses Monteiioro, tho typical Israelite, as that nliich should bo followed, aud enforcing tho duty of regular attendance at public wor ship, tho Rabbi concluded by saying that gratifying as had beon their dedication coromony that day, perhaps tho best dedica tion of all wove the forvent prayers breathed, tho good resolutions formed, and the tears thoyhadshed. Immediately aftor the address Mrs Goldstein sang with nico expression the solo, "Hear Ye, O Israel," from tho "Elijah." Then a benediction by the Rabbi, and following it the well-known con tralto solo from the "Elijah," "Rest in the Lord," which Mrs M. Davis sang with good effect. The Rabbi pronounced the concluding prayer in Hebrew, Mrs Alex ander sang " Father in Hoaven" from " Judas Maccabwus,"and the choir brought the proceedings to a close with the 15th Psalm.

(ISY lELEGBAPH—OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

Donedix, this day. At tho meeting of tho Anglican Synod, Mr Smith moved to give the Standing Com mittee a potential voico in future nomina tions of tho clorgy. It was strongly opposed by tho Bishop and clorgy, tho only one of the latter supporting it being Mr Powell, newly arrived from England. The debate took a better tono towards tho cloee. Mr Smith, in replying, regretted tho clorgy giving a block vote against it. » Its rejection would lead to such antngonism on tho part of the laity as must lead to its ultimate passing, but only aftor tho display of a great deal of bitternoss and rancour very detrimental to the best interests of the Church. Tho voting was :—For ; Clergy, 4 ; Laity, 14, Against: Clergy, 14 ; Laity, 9, Tho opening of the Roman Catholic Cathedral next February will be attended by great display. Dr. Moran, before leav ing for Sydney, announced that Cardinal Moran would preach tho opening sermon.

Mr Stout, acknowledging tho restoration from Oamaru re speedy legisla tion for the bettor protection of females, says: "The movement has my sympathy, but I doubt if Parliament would agree to extend the period of protection to 21 years as suggested. However, I shall be very glad to assist in any way desirable the object the meeting had in view."

CORRESPONDENCE.

Karangakano Ward.

(To the Editor),

Sir,—Tho approaching vacancy in the City Council upon tho retirement of Cr. Morrison should stir up overtaxed ratepayers in this ward to a senso of their interests, and not let this one go by dofault as in the case of the other two membors ; for depend upon it, the glaring inactivity of our interests, now complained of, must bo attributed to the ratepayers themselves in not indicating their disapproval. As yet, how much real bonefit have wo received, as compared with other wards ? None. New works, none— if I except tho gully drainage, which was inovitable,itß source being in the Cemetery, henco a public question, a few yards of a main sewer in front of a retiring Councillor's property, the filling up of a street at anothe Councillors door, and tho raising of Newton Road to absorb surplus earth from tramway lino in Karangahapo Road. The streets, I assert, with all the array of workmen and tools, arc no bettor kept than in the days of the good old Highway Board and their oue faithful workman. Presently the side paths, wherever you go, are overgrown with grass, which in many cases have to be attendod to privately by owners to preserve thoir fonco3 from decay. Even admitting some slight attention is given to the interest of any portion of tho ward, it does not show itsolf in tho section between the gully and Sjmonds-etreet, a quantity of earth not re quired by Grafton Ward, which was tumbled into a gully for convenience, without any rogard to the comfort of tho residents what ever. Lot somo gentleman with energies akin to Mr Holdship's be solicited to repre sent us, even if ho has to combat single handed. In time rt will awaken tho public to the incompetence of the other members, and, I am confident, to the Council generally, a groat number of members of which leave no vocation for the position, beyond revelling in longwinded, factious, and personal recriminations to no useful or business purpose.—l am, etc., Alpion.

To the Editor: Sir, —I noticed by an ex tract from a letter sent to you by Petten^ goll that he professes to be still anxious to fight me. Ho knows I cannot bring myself down to list. 121bs. go entrenches himself behind that proviso as a safety guard. It is well-known that I issued a final challenge, stating that I stayed over a mail boat on purpose to give all who wished a chance to fight mo for the championship ; and my forfeit of £10 yet remains in the handa of the Sporting editor of the "Spectator." I also offered oxponses, shouldPettengell wish to meet me. I intend going to America at an oarly date, and if Pettengell thinks he is man enough to fight me to a finish, at catch weights, for the championship of New Zealand and a stake of £50 a-side, let him come here and cover my deposit; ii not, I hope he will retire to the ranks of second-rate men, and not strive any longer to achieve and sustain a "newspaper reputation." I knocked Pottengell out in a round and a-half at Dpnedin on March 16th last, and am willing to repeat the dose in terms of my last challenge, which is open to all comers, and I fear no weights. Apologising for this intrusion on your space, but hoping that in fairness you Will insert this, —I am, &o.| Richard Matthews, Champion Boxer of New Zealand,
