The Lecture Last Night by the Hon. BL P. O'Connor. Hibernian Hall was filled last evening to overflowiog with an appreciative audience, including a large number 01 ladles, who had assembled at the invitation ol the Catholic In? stitute to hear the lecture on Bishop Eogland by the Hon. M. P. O'Connor. Every seat in the spacious hall was occupied before the ap? pointed time, and late comers were compelled' to content themselves with standing room In the rear. At the appointed hour, the mem? bers of the Catholic Institute ascended the stage with their honorary guest?, and the splendid band from the Citadel, which had kindly volunteered for the occasion, regaled the assemblage with some delightful music. The Bight Rev. Bishop Lynch then rose and briefly introduced the lecturer. Mr. O'Connor, with a few philosophic reflec ftions on greatness, and allusions to some of the great names of the past, Introduced his theme by asking, "Shall we be deemed pre? sumptuous for includiog in this category, and j placing upon the roll ot greatness, him who has been pronounced by the impartial verdict of aju8t posterity the 'Apostle of the Western World ?' " Nearly a third of a century has elapsed since the venerated and beloved John England, the first bishop of Charleston, died. I His mortal remains repose In yonder church, lu the land and in the midst of the people he loved so well, and beneath the very spot where once blazed in the fud meridian of his power and his glory. The altar from which he spoke is there no more. A rude and simple slab, without inscription, marks bis resting place, and the solemn mouldering ruins of the once stately Cathedral stand as a silent mourner over his consecrated tomb. That characteris? tic love and attachment which animated his followers in life, and the marked veneration and profound homage paid to his exalted char? acter and resplendent abilities, are now en? twined, as green and as fast as the ivy to the oak, around his hallowed memory. John England, the speaker wem on to Fay, ! was born in Cork, Ireland, on the 23d ol Sep I tem ber, 1786. His grandfather suffered for years in a British dungeon the penalty of fideli? ty to the obligations of bis' conscience. His father was treated as au outlaw, for teaching geometry, and for years was a refugee among the hills of his native country. Having concluded the story of the Bishop's nativity, the speaker describes bim as he ap? peared before us in Charleston in the full en? joyment of all his powers. "His head a dome of thought, a temple of wisdom and of knowl? edge, and a storehouse of learning; with heavy overhanging eyebrows, which Jutted out like the ledge of a rock from his cliff-like bead, with a Ciceronian brow, and a counte? nance lit up by the lustre of bis full, clear blue eye, whose glance penetrated while riveting the gaze which it attracted." Ina few burning and eloquent sentences the lecturer now vindicated the action of the Irish priesthood during the early part of the Bish? op's lite In Ireland, and particularly the part taken by the Bishop, and reverting to the endowments which so well qualified him for the exalted position he' sustained. "Bishop Eogland was endowed by nature with facili? ties that fitted him either to instruct or to govern mankind. Combining the mont varied resources of a powerful and commanding in? tellect, with the most wonderful Intuition, with a determined will and a well disciplined temper, and. above all, a genius that aspired to great deeds; that, If fortune had so deter? mined, be might have signalized by his triumphs the camp and the field, and illus? trated by bis talents the cabinet on the forum. But he was destined for a holler station. His parents abounding in that Catholic piety which peopled Ireland with re? ligious martyrs, and made her renowned for her sanctity, bore him In his Infancy upon their arms to the altar, and dedicated his ser? vices to the sanctuary." The attainments of the Bishop as an orator next claimed the attention of the speaker, who reviewed shortly the interesting rise of the Divine, from the completion of his ecclesi? astical education at the Theological College of Carlow, to his filling the president's chair in the Theological Seminary of Cork, where be cultivated with so much succeFS those talents for polemical controversy which so distin? guished him in after life. "Whether," contin? ued the speaker, "standing in the tribune be? fore the down-trodden masses, riding the whirlwind of popular passion, and launching his fierce anathema against England, or In the pulpit, grasping the thunderbolt, declaiming against the Infidel tendencies of the age, the roar ol bis oratorio artillery resounded through? out the kingdom. His mind, when In a blaze, was as If the fires of Cy cl' ps were burning and Titan forges working therein. Who that has ever heard bim lu one ot his tremendous outbursts of power that bas not felt his nos? trils quiver and his blood creep as peal alter peal thundered upon his startled ear. Hlselo Suence at times resembling the long, heavy, ls tan t roll of an Ai lantic billow, as with heroic impressiveness he described lue Church on the rock of Peter, in mid-ocean, lashed by the winds and the waves of persecution; now re? echoing from the shores of the Liffey the hill? side thunderings of the Hon agitator and plead? ing for unborn millions the cause of Catholic emancipation, or ia plaintive notes lamenting his country's fate, and depicting ber Borrows and gloom with a voice that thrilled as it moaned through old Conciliation Hall." The lecturer next reviewed the eventB at? tending the coming of the Bishop to this country, and his taking po* ,ession of his see in Charleston? He rose rapidly in.the love and esteem of the people he hal come amongst, and bis increasing renown draws forthxha following eulogy from the speaker: "He rose steadily and rapidly in distinction and renown, and towered high in the empy? rean of fame. The lustre or his genius was like unto the brilliancy ot a new Jewel, more precious than gold or sapphire, set io the cask? et ot Carolina's glory. Attracted by his re? fined wit and genial humor, as well as his rare erudition, he was the glittering centre of a charmed circle, adorned by the first of Caro? lina's scholars and Jurists, and some of the best and wisest ol .her statesmen. The gems of wit of purest ray serene that dropped from him, and the spicy anecdotes with which he enlivened the hosp.iable b jard, are to this day fresh in the remembrance of those who were tammar with him. Exhibiting in his acts and words a charity as enlarged and as compre? hensive as bis understanding, he was the Idol and beloved shepherd of his own fold. Com? manding the admiration of all classes, he be came the recipient of the most distinguished favors from every quarter of the A m erl CB n Republic. By his consummate prudence, en? lightened zeal and piety, he soon acquired the lead In the councils of the A merk an church, and by general consent was accorJed the first place among her JblBhops. He was the prince of the American hierarchy. The various and extensive writings of the Bishop were next treated by the F.peaker, who, after reviewing the great works of the deceased, concluded wita the following striking passage: "Exhibiting the wonders the panacy has wrought In Us conflicts with feudalism-draw? ing his comparisons irom the days of chivalry and romance, and by the pale light of the mid? dle ages; illustrating the glories and the tri? umphs of that cross which once glistened upon the shield of Godfrey of Bouillon, and surmounted the lion and dragon ot St. George upon the standard of Richard the Hun-hear tea. '' The seed that he planted has ripened, and Us fruits are visible In that enlarged Chris? tian liberality, Just toleration and respect for the religious principles of each other-the true test of a genuine Christian heart." The Bishop's love of American Institutions, his encouragement of education, and his school In this city, were all la turn painted In glowing colors before th* audience. Mr. O'Connor, in floe, alluded to the infidel ten? dencies of the age, and their source in the In? ternational Society and Its doctrines BB ex? pounded by Prudbam and declared In their Congress. After showing that these had bound all Christianity in one common cause, the speaker gracefully concluded his lecture in the following words: "While this mad spirit is raging on the waves of popular clamor and threatening the shipwreck of society; while the ship which bears our treasures ls strug? gling In the gale, with her masts bending, and cordage tightly drawn, and plumage torn, and the breakers from a leeshore are thundering above and around her and breaking over her decks, who is there that remembers the Bishop that would not feel safer if the Great Master were on board ? We may at least draw les? sons of spiritual encouragement and hope from . the recollections of his life and his teachings, strengthen our faith and enkindle our Chris? tian courage at the shrine of the great and la? mented England." ? -? I. 0. 0. F.-The public installation of the officers of Howard Lodge, No. 3, elected some time since, took place last evening at che Odd Fellows' Hall. The ceremonies were quite in? teresting, and were witnessed by a numberof invited guests. THE RETURN OF THE COTTON TAX. The following is the memorial to Congress, for the return of the tax paid on cotton, adopt? ed by the Board ot Trade on Wednesday evening, and ordered to be forwarded under the seal of the Board: To the Honorable the Senate and House of Representatives of the United Slates: The Board of Trade of the City of Charles? ton, South Carolina, respectfully represent to your honorable bodies That the termination of the late unfortunate contest left the State of South Carolina in a most deplorable state ol poverty and destitu? tion, from which she has not yet recovered. A portion of her citizens still held their lands, but without the immediate means of culti? vating them. Some held cotton, a portion of which was seized under military orders, and the balance, together with the fruits of her subsequent industry, were subjected to the tax under the laws of Congress of 30th June, 1864,13th July, 1866, and 2d of March, 1867. This tax on cotton your memorialists be lfeve to be unconstitutional, lt being declared In Article first, section ninth of the Constitu? tion ot the United States, that ' No tax or duty shall be laid on articles exported from any State." The great market which controls the price of our cotton ls Liverpool. England. Our cot? ton there meets In competition with that raised In India, South America, and all portions ol the globe, where the article is grown, and no tax paid by us in the United States adds one fraction to the value of cotton in market, thus plaslng the tax entirely upon the producer. Again, the constitution-declares "All duties, imposts, and excises, shall be unltorm througliout the United States." We beg leave to call the attention of Con greBS to the fact, that cotton ls produced in only eleven States of this Union. Your memorialists believe firmly that no Republican Government can permanently ex 1st unless founded upon Justice, purity and honor, and we believe that the unlortunate departure of Congress from the constitution, In imposing the cotton tax, has had a most demoralizing effect upon some of our State Governments, who, contrary to all law, "are harassing our people and eating out our sub? stance." Your memorialists earnestly ask Congress to refund the cotton tax, which, In the end, will redound to the interest ol the United States. It will stimulate the production of cotton, by throwlog capital into the Southern States where it is so much needed, and where the interest on money rules at so high a rate as to be almost ruinous to the planter. It will once more givens the control ef the cotton market of the world. Large crops will bring low prices, but the planter will live within himself, and raise food which he now pur? chases. Our railroads will flourish, employing large numbers ot our people, and as carriers of our own produce across the ocean, anim' mense American mercantile marine must spring np, which will again be the pride and glory of our country, WILLIAM S. HASTIE, J. B. E. SLOAN, WILLIAM GORNET. THE GERMAN LUTHERAN CHURCH.-At the annual meeting of the German Evangelical Lutheran Church, held on Tuesday, the report of the Reverened pastor, L. Muller, for the past year was read. It showed that during the year ninety-six children had been bap? tized, thirty-two persons confirmed and seven? teen couples had been married. One hundred and forty-one Germans had died, and the number of communicants In the church amounted to five hundred. Yesterday the workmen were busily engaged at the top of j the steeple of the new church fitting on the handsome cap for the spire, recently manu? factured by Mr. C. Werner. The large golden pointed vane, In the shape of an arrow, was put In position, and the rest ol the work will soon be completed. THE HIDDEN HAND.-The reproduction of] this sensational drama by the Watkins Troupe at the Academy of Music last evening was greeted by a ialr house. Mrs. Watkins ap? peared to much advantage In her favorite character, and her Capitola wa6 played with a life and spirit which elicited much applause. As Wool, Mr. Watkins was as amusing os ever, and the plantai ion scene in the third act was carried out by Ike Lewie and hie fat partner, in their peculiar style, amid repeated outbursts ol laughter and applause from the audience. But two evenings remain before the drawing of the grand prize scheme takes place, and those who desire to visit the Academy before they win lt, cannot select a better time ihan this evening, when Mrs. Watkins, takes her benefit, with a great bill. THE WHEEL OF PORTONS.-Yesterday the big wheel, made for the drawing of the Academy of Music prize scheme, arrived in the steamship Sea Gull from Baltimore. The portentous machine was erected on a large box in the vestibule of the Academy, and at? tracted the longing gaze ot many a passer by. It consists of a large yellow-painted barrel about the size of a tierce, and is supported in a horizontal position by an axis resting upon two support') Bhaped like an Inverted V. A large wheel, furnished with spokes at one end j of the barrel furnishes the means cf l m pari lng to it a rapid rotary motion. The hand of Fate will be inserted to draw the numbers through a square hole, cut on the side of the barrel, and closed by a neat door with a plated knob and catch. The barrel can contain with ease the one hundred and fifty thousand numbers; and Its business-like aspect forcibly reminded the public that the opportunity of making a fortune for five dollars- would soon be past. The sight of the wheel created a brisk demand for tickets. GUILLE MIN's GAF-FITTINO ESTABLISHMENT. The handsome building with the Mansird roof j lu Cumberland street, one door from Meeting, Just completed by Mr. John H. Devereux, ls occupied by Mr. P. L. Gulllemin, who for a number of years had carried on his business In Church street, opposite to the gas works. The upper or Mansard Btory of the building makes a fine hall, large enough for dancing purposes or for a billiard room. On the second story are five fine room?, with bath room, kitchen and other conveniences. On the first Moor are the workshops, and a commodious circular-fronted store and show room. The workshops are fitted np with a forge and all the tools needed for gas-fitting and plumbing. In the show room ls as handsome a display of | gas fixtures as can be found In any Southern city. They are new In style, and range from the Bix-llght chandelier to the modest bracket. Many of the patterns are very attractive, and the stock ls large enough to enable all tastes and all pockets to be suited. Mr. Gulllemin ls a thoroughly trustworthy man, and we hope that he will be visited in his new establishment by all his old customers and by a host ol new ones. Hotel Arrivals-January 4. MILLS HOUSE.
