OKATO.
(Our own Correspondent.) Sunday last was a red-letter day for Okafco, it being the occasion of the opening of the new Catholic Church erected* here. His Grace Archbishop Redwood officiated on the occasion, assisted by the Revs Father McKenna and Father Cognet. The church was crowded at both morning and evening services. At 11 o'clock Mass the Archbishop gave instructions to the candidates for Confirmation and confirmed about twenty. After Mass a collection was taken up and £9O was subscribed.
