INTERCOLONIAL.

A meeting is on foot at Cairn?, Queensland, to erect a monument to the memory of the late Father Corcoran. A committee has been formed to carry out the project. At the first meeting over £30 waß collected. _ Of the band of priests who were doing missionary work in the Maitland diocese on the arrival of Bishop Murray in ]yG(! — the Rev. Fathers Phelan, Leonard, Lynch. Kenny, and Healy — only one survives in the person of the Very Rev. Dean Healy, of Balmain East, who served for two yea*s at Maitlaud. then a portion of the Archdiocese of Sydney. The Bishop of Maitlaud i.s the doyen of the Australasian Hierarchy in length of Australi m service. In episcopal years he is beaten by the venerable Archbishop Murphy, who before his translation to Hobart in IhtiO had terv^d 20 yrara as Ri-hop of Hyderabad in India. Dr. Murphy, who went as far as Sydney to attend Dr. Murray's Jubilee celebration, was consecrated Bishop of Philadelphia, in partibus, and Vicar-Apostilic of Hyderabad, on October 11, 1846 — the appointment being made by Gregory XVI. The first detachment of the Second Federal Contingent, before sailing for Fremantle presented Father dune, CSS R . with a handsome travelling and dressing case bound in Morocco and mounted in silver. It bore the following inscription : 'To Rev. Father Clune, from R. C's. of the 2nd VV A. Contingent' The presentation was made to the missioner by Colonel Campbell. Father Clune had gone on board the troopship Maplemore to say good-bye to his friends quite oblivious of the ceremony that was awaiting him. He was held in great esteem by the troops whom he had been attending at the camp at Karrakatta. c The long-expected appointment of a fourth judge of th Supreme Court of Weßt Australia (says the ll'. A. Iltnnul) ha' H been made. The judge appointed is Mr F. W. Moorhead, Q.C . a gentleman well qualified to fill the position. Mr Moorhead, who is an Irishman by birth and education, is a member of a highly respectable family. In his earlier years he was a student at the Jesuit college of St. Stanislaus, at Tullamore, King's County, his native place, and thence he entered Trinity College, Dublin, taking, after a distinguished university course, the degrees of B.A. and LL.B He was subsequently admitted to the Irish Bar, and, for some years, he practised there with success. In 188 ( J he emigrated to this State, where his career as a lawyer has been brilliant. So far, therefore, as the new judge is personally concerned, the appointment is, in all respects, highly to be commended.
