(From our own correspondent.) November 10. Mr. Denis Mulvey, of the Post Office staff, is making satisfactory progress after a serious operation for appendicitis. Nine beautiful stained glass windows, ordered from the famous makers, Messrs. Hardman and Co., Birmingham, have been erected in the new church. Eight of them are erected, in a semi-circle in the apse behind the high altar, and the ninth is in the baptistry. The figures represented in the eight, looking from left to right, -.are as follow—St. Aloysius, St. Bridget, > St. Patrick, the Immaculate Conception, the Sacred Heart,
St. Joseph, St. Ann, and St. John the Evangelist. These windows have been mostly presented by private donors, • and Very Rev. Dean Tubman will probably make an announcement on the subject later. The baptistry window is a beautiful representation of St. John the Baptist, at the Jordan, and it will serve as a memorial to the late William Byrne, who lost his life in the South African war. The windows will be solemnly blessed, and the memorial window unveiled on Sunday week.
