(From .our own correspondent.) - . UWW*,WJ* July 7. . Sunday last was observed as. a day of special devotion at St. Mary’s Church, in thanksgiving' for the signing of the Peace-Terms. At the conclusion of the Mass of Thanksgiving,!, there was Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, many attending in Adoration during the afternoon. Pray- : ers of -intercession for , lasting j . peace > were offered ;at the
evening demotions, and, from the text "Peace be unto^you," a ...-discourse appropriate of the occasion was delivered by Father Dunphy. In his concluding remarks the preacher said that by a somewhat remarkable coincidence 'the |fqllowing day was the Feast of SS. Cyril and Methodius, patrons of the Ju go-Slavs, and he exhorted his hearers to have recourse to saints, that, through'their intercession, the blessings of peace would also be given to these unfortunate people who were now. fighting. among, themselves.
