Hely memories of natoinel history gathered around the sacred edifice. tine temple was the centre -of religious life, the place where God manifested himself to inan end where man dedi- cated himself to God. Jesus attached to the ganctuary a holiness greater than was conferred mon it by all the asseciations of its use and its history. A breach of trust had been committed. _Both the claime of God and the religt Jetts needs Of man were utterly ne- glected. Divine worship was ex- cbanged for hunaart Interests, The Mitering to God was forgotten. Only the making of good bargains was re- membered. The building was abused and profaned in being diverted from sacred to scouter uses. Where there should heye been enly sacrifices there ware sales' of beasts and birds.

New York Report.—The warning seat out by wireleas to the vessels el the entente Alike by the British au- thoritice that the captured British merchantman St. Theodore had been converted into a German commeree raider, was pointed to to -day by local shipping men aa tending to prove that at least two German raiders are at large in the Atlantic ocean. It was re- called, that a steamship had been sunk south ot the equator within eight days after the Samiand had sighted a raids, Dec, 4th, about 600 mile st west o Fastnet. For any vessel to have cov- ered the distance in that time, it was said, would have been an irapeosibil- ity. In the discussion of what vowels possibly could be supplying the Ger- .man raiders, the peculiar actions off Cape Hatteras last month at the Por- tuguese steamer ram a former Ger- 'men -vessel, was recalied. he Faro formerly was the Galata,. • Tee vessel, it appears, was interned in Portugal when the war startee was seized by the Portuguese Government when the latter declared war against Germaey, and under the name of Faro was put into the merchant trade of Portugal. Lloyd's classes her as re- quisitioned by the Portuguese Govern- ment. The American tank steamer Suc- rose, which arrived here Christmas Day, reported that aft Cape Hatteras she eighted the Faro, which steamed across the tanker's bow, then eIrcled and recrossed astern, and disapewired, According to the Sucroses officers, Um Faro appeared next day and repeated the performance, neither time display- ing any signal to explain her myster- ious; actions. The Faro put into Now - pert News for coal, and sailed from there Dec. 28th, since whea ehe has not been reported. • So far no change has been made in the arrangements for the eafety of AliIod yeesels leaving this port for England or France. When the ves- sels finish loading in elew York, the captains, it is said, go to their respec- tive consols and received a code mes- sage, which they send out by tviroless on reaching a certain position, soave 300 or 400 miles 'fee= their port of destination, and waits until the escort meets them.
