N ewinarket D BLOUGE :gnges at His Grace Al‘chhishup O’Connor of Toronto, paid a pastoral visitation to Thornhill and Richmond Hill 01‘) Sun- day last), the 15th inst. The Arch- bishop was accompanied at each place by Rev. J. R. 'J‘eefy, President of St. Michael’s Culloge ; Rev. Dean Egan of Barrie; and the pastor, Rev. Father McMahon‘ At St. Luke’s Church, Thornhill, there was an exceedingly large. con- gregation, many of those present be- ing members and adherents of other churches. Masswas celebrated at 11 a. m. by Rev. Dcan Egan, after which the Archbishop proceeded to examine the children individually on the truths of the Catholic religion, which they were. supposed to know for the recepâ€" tim of the. Sacrament (If Confirma- tion. His Grace found the children, as he. expressed to the people assemblâ€" ed, well instructed, and therefore adâ€" ministered the Sacrament of Confirma- tion to 18 boys and 10 girls. His Grace. then touk advantage. of this fact to congratulate the pastor and the parents of the children confirmed on the able way they answered the quea‘tions put to them~ After the ceremony of Confirmation the following Address of \Velcome was read to the Archbishop by Mr. Thos. Phelan, who was accompanied by Messxs. Jas. \Vhalen, J. J. Mar- shall, M. O’Sullivan, Albert Seager, Wm. Bannon. and Thos. Hughes :â€" To His GRACE ARC-KBISHOP O‘Conson: May it please Your Grace :~â€"VVe, the Catholics of Thornhill, take adâ€" vantage of your presence amongst us to-day to congratulate you on the great distinction conferred by the Holy Father in appointing you to the Archiepiscopal See of Toronto. \Ve were glad to see that the choice of His Holiness had been hailed will) accla- mation throughout this Archdiocese by priests and people and that every opportunity had been availed of to ex- press their unbounded joy and satis- faction at your election. Speaking for ourselves and knowing as we. do your great scholarly attainments, the many positions of trust and dignity you have filled with credit to yourself and credit and honor to the places where you exercised your sacerdotal and episcopal functions, our feelings of gratitude to the venerable head of the church for having appointed a: gentleman of such eminence and disâ€" tinction to rule over us were inexpi-ess- ible. Knowing as we do the Warm interest you at all times manifested in the college at Sandwich during the many years you presided over its in- terests, and in such a manner as to re- dound toyour credit and live in the memory of those Whose privilege it was to sit at your feet and r<ceive from you that sound education that distinguished them in the different walks in life; we feel sure that the youth now committed to your care and guidance will be the objects of that paternal solicitude that has char- acterized your life in the past. In the diocese of London Where you labored for nine years your adminis- tration was worthy of the Bishop of the Church of God. We have, there- fore, every reason to congratulate our- selves on having a. bishop who will in- terest himself in our spiritual and temporal welfare .and in return for this blessing we promise to assist your devoted flock in lessening the burdens of your exalted office. 8w the office of a. bishop as we. are taught is freighted with many and grave responsibilities. We ask Almighty God in His great mercy to spare you length of days to preside over the interests of this im- portant arch-diocese that we may en- Joy the benefits of your kind advice and the blessings of your holy guid- ance. That the more we come to ‘know you the more our love will in~ ‘crease, and our affections strengthen towards you as time rolls on. Asking your Grace’s blessing and trusting you will accept this expres- sion of our feelings of (ice affection and praying again that Go may long spare you to rule over this arch- diocese we have the honor to be your Grace’s devoted and faithful children. At 3.30 p. m. the distinguished rev. entlemen drove to St. Mary’s church ichmond Hill, where a service simi- lar to the former was held. Archbish- op O’Connor preached an instructive and practical sermon to a. large and attentive congregation, the church being packed t') the doors. At this p1ace20boys and 14 girls were. con- firmed, and here as at Thornhill the children were found well skilled in the doctrines of the Catholic church. Af- ter Confirmation Mr. M. Teefy, accom- panied by Messrs, N. Lynett, J. De- vine, D. Lynett, J. Naughton, Dr. Mc- Elroy, E. J. Faliey, Thos. Cosgrove, Thos. Riley and W. J. Heal-n Walked to the altar railing where Mr. Teefy read the following address :â€"- To THE MOST REV. DEngO’CONNLiR, D. D., ARCHBISHOP 0F TORONTO : ngjt please: Ymu_- Grace,â€" If is \Z’ibh (1 mp pleasure that we W91- come Your Grace to our church upon. R. C. Pastoral Visimtion. this your first visit. We offer you our congmtulatiims upon your elevation tn the Ax-uhiepiscopal dignity, and hope that, Your Grace will long be spurvd to rule over the Metropolitan See of Toronto. We tender to Your Grace our loyal- ty and obedience as faithful children of the great Church of God. The last episcopal visit to Richmond Hill was that of the late venerable Archbishop \Vulsh. who came to lay the corner stone of this church on the 17th June, 1891. We were happywhen the following 25th November it was dedicated. We point to it with pride, as its neatness is a. great satisfaction to its linembers. The sacrifice which this cost us was lessened very much by the generosity of a benefactor, the late Mr. Martin Brennan. a former member of the Tlgu'nhill congi'egabion. ' A This ('humhuis Elsa a monument of the zeal of our excellent, Pastor, the Rev. Father McMahon, for Whom we. wish to express to Your Grace our highest esteem and affection. He has labored must earnestly by ministri- tiun, word and example, for the spirit;- uzd welfare of his flock. In conclusion we ask Your Grace’s blessing upon’ us and our children, your devoted people of Richmond Hill. Richmond Hill, 15th October, 1899. His Grace re lied on both occasions in choice am appropriate words, thzmkiug the congregation for the kind Wm ds contained in the addresses and at the latter place took occasion to congratulate the people and pastor on their new edifice, the good Work they were doing, and the success which crowned their efforts. After the. ser- vice was concluded the rev. gentle- men then drove to the preshytery at Thornhill where they had refresh- ments with Rev. Father McMahon. The flying visit made this week to Chicago by Sir “7ilfrid Laurierand other prominent Canadians cannot but have a far-reaching and beneficial effect upon the relations of the two countries, relations which have al- ready been vastly strengthened and improved by the firm And statesman- like, yet conciliatory attitude of the Canadian Govermnenc. The. spon- taneous and universal enthusiasm with which the Canadian Premier Was greeted at every turn was gratifying and significant; the more significant indeed because it was not alone the expression of good feeling engendered by the ties of kindred blood5 which would naturally be expected from the tens of thousands of Canadians who form so important a part of Chicago’s population, but also from the hard- headed business men with whom sen- timent counts for very little. It was on the Chicago stock exchange, and at the busiest hour of the day, that two thousand stock brokers voluntar- ily sus ended operations and eagerly listene to an impromptu speech from Sir Wilfrid. At each place His Grace. the Arch- bishop, pledgvd the boys confirmed against the use of intoxicating liquor until they are at least 21 years of age. His remarks were short, but to the point. " I believe,” he said, “ that; if we were to establish between Canada and the United States such a current of business as we ought to have, it would be immensely and mutually profitable to both countries, but trade between us is much impeded by your tarifi as it is by out-tariff. Can we not, I want to know, come to such an agreement that trade relations he- tweeu us may_ he greatly‘ impi'oved ? “ One would have thought that every journalist of experience, with- out regard to political leaning, would have been able to appreciate the sub- stantial and mutual value to the countries concerned, of the interchange of international courtesies on occas- ions like this, and yet the local Oppo- sition organ is so little able to under- stand the situation, that it refers to it as ‘ inopportune junketing,’ while the Toronto Telegram (which is as fond of arading its ‘independence’ as is the Iontreal Star), remarks : “ It would suit Sir \Vilfrid Laurier better to stay at home trying to please Canadians with his work, instead of jumping at every chance to go abroad and please outside audiences with his talk." NO ANNEXATION HERE. It is an old, though by this time en- tirely discredited, trick with a certain section of the Opposition to charge Ministers with a weakness for “talking to the gallery,” declaring that they are too ready to say the thing would be pleasing my the. audience they are addressing at the moment, while equally prepared to say the opposite to another audience the following day. How exceedingly far from the truth this is, however, may be gathered from the remarks of Sir \Vilfrid Laurier in the course of the last ad- dress he made before he left Chicago. The Premier has, time and again, been charged with annexation proclivities, and ‘certainly before an audience of Our OtbaWa Letter. FREER TRADE RELATIONS. 1’ _ enthusiastic Chicagoans anneXation‘ ' would haVe been a popular topic, but i there is precmus little of it in such re- ,marks as the following: “Canada ' occupies to-day the absolutely un- preCedented position that, while she is ;a colony, she is at the same timea nation. Canada is independent. The l tie which toâ€"day binds us to England { is simply the tie of love. There is not itoâ€"day on Canadian soil a soldier to imaintain British rule. The reign of = the Queen, the supremacy of the Queen has no other foundation than the gratitude which is in the hearts of lthe people for the privileges which ithey enjoy. I am proud of beinga subject of Her Majesty Queen Victoria. There has never been a sovereign who has understood and discharged her. sovereignty as Queen Victoria has:- \ We Canadians are proud of our alleg- ! iance, and so long as we continue to ' be as we are at the present time, I do not see that we shall have any cause for regret.” There does not appear to.- be much annexation in this. PERMANENT DEVELOPMENT. Ex~Lieutenant-Governor Mackintosh â€"-â€"one time a representative of the Capital in the Federal Houseâ€"has been down here on a flying visit to the scene of his past activities. He is now actively engaged in western min- ing projects, and speaks enthusiastic- ally of the future of mining in British Columbia. Speaking with “extenswe practical knowledge he declares that development must go on for many , years at an increasing ratio and with constantly improving results. The in-. dustry is a permanent one and the in- flux of population into the mining districts is not of atemporary char- acter. All of which goes to show that . the market which has thus been create; ed for the products of the east, has: also all the elements of permanency and steady growth.
