(From our own correspondent.)

August 27. A Pastoral Letter from his Lordship Bishop Grimes, dealing with sacred music, was read at the Masses this morning.

Some Sisters of Nazareth are expected here during the coining week on a collecting tour for their Christchurch house.

At a meeting held in Pleas-ant Point this morning after Mass, it was decided to erect a school for the numerous children of the district. Two Sisters, it was considered, would be sufficient, and these will in all probability come from the Sisters of St. Joseph, Kerrytown Convent. Rev. Father Kerley presided, and expressed his pleasure at the forward step taken. During the past fortnight two more games in th© primary schools' football competition have been played and won by the Marist Brothers' boys. They beat the Main School by 3to nil, their fine drilling being spoiled >hy over-eagerness, resulting in the small score. Against the South School they played a back game, and put up the gigantic score of 41 to nil. Tries were scored by K'ane (2), Fuly (2), Sullivan (2), Mfcilcahy (2), CuniniiniofiTam (2), Hartoiett (1) ; Lynch converted two tries, Sullivan and Fuly one.
