CATHOLIC CHURCH.
Tiie Right Reverend Dr Croke, Catholic Bishop of Auckland, preached a most impressive sermon at vespers Yesterday, from the Bth verse of the 16th chapter of St. Luke - “ For the children of this generation arc wiser than the children of light.” His Lordship forcibly pointed out with what untiring energy the children of this world pursued wealtli or ambition, and, on the contrary, how little was done for God by the majority of mankind, and earnestly exhorted bis congregation to seek the treasures laid up in Heaven before all earthly gain. There was a very large congregation, and his Lordship was listened to throughout with the most profound attention.
