At the Communion Breakfast of the 11.A.C.8. Society in the Cardinal's Hall, Sydney, in Sunday, August 5, there was a recoid gat'henng. When his Eminence the Cardinal entered, accompanied by the Irish envoys antl Monsignor O'Haran, there was aa outburst of cheers such as, perhaps, was never before heard on this scene of many memorable celebrations. Brilliant speeches were delivered by the Cardinal and the envoys. Mr. Devlin was at his best, and when he stood on a chair to deliver his address the whole audience rose and waved their liats, and cheered tor two or three minutes. When he resumed his seat ha was greeted in the same way. Mr. Donovan was likewise honored. The Hibernians presented a cheque for £500 to the envoys for the Iribh Parliamentary Fund, the second instalment of the £1000 promised some little time ago.
