A Lecture Delivered in St. Patrice's Cathedral, Thursda* KrENiwi;, Feb 13, Br Bishop Huohei. " We hive an altar, whereof they have no right to eat who serve the Tabernacle.?Hebrew, 10:hchap. 13.h verse In these works, Christian brethren, the Apostle is directing the attention of the converts from the Jewish religion to the contrast and difference be tween their ancient sacrifices, and that with which thev had been made acquaintad in their Christian profession. They were attached naturally to these ancient usages, and nbove all, to the sacrifice which it was foretold in the prophecies should cease, and we know by the writings of the Apos tie that even their minor ceremonies were cherish ed with a kind of attachment, giving occasion to persons to blend, as far as it was not prohibited, these usages which were calculated to conciliate the prejudices of that slowly believing and incre dulous rteople. The Apostle is here speaking of the difference between the Christian and Jewish altars; and, as in the Jewish religion, they who offered sacrifice, as well as those for whom the sacrifice was offered, partook of the victim immo lated. The Apostle says, "We have an altar where of thes have no right to eat who serve the Taber nacle." This has always been understood in every age of Christianity to refer to the sacrifice of the Cross It is found in other writings of the same Apostle, when addressing those who were not Jews, but Pagans, before their conversion. In this case, he prescribes the rules to be observed with regard to the meat offered in the market, but which had been before offered unto idols; and he tells them in the same correspondence, that in all rites or sacrifices, the priest officiating, and the person for whom the victim was sacrificed,partook of it, and so he tells them that they could not be partakers with devils, by partaking of that offered to idols. Unquestionably, beloved brethren, sa crifice is essential to the worship of the true (rod. There can be no doubt that its divine origin dates from the tall of man?that it was established by the express command of the Almighty himself But even, according to our reason, sacrifice is es sential to express the nature of our worship, as well as the attributes of the Being to whom it is presented; and the church, therefore, has al ways held that her divine founder did not leave her without this means of adoring God inspirit and in truth. And it is in this particularly, that the excellence of her sacrifice surpasses all which preceded it. In what we have already said of the ??ucharist, the object of our remarks has been to establish the simple dogma always held by the . church,but denied in modern times and discarded by J those separated from her communion We have not dwelt upon the special dogma al transubstantia tion, because, it is a consequence of what we have presented and proved. And, it seems to me, that if the unanimous and unbroken testimony of all professing Christianity in primitive times, and 'he sacred writings can prove anything that the doctrine of the real presence has been proved.? What is the meaning of it? It is this?that simply under the appearances of bread and wine, by the efficacy of the power of God, through the instru mentality of the words of consecration, pronounc ed by the priest at the altar, there is affected a change into the real presence of the body and blood of Christ. Now, therefore, it is unnecessa ry for our sep: 'sited brethren to take offence at what they call transubstantiation, because they deny the presence altogether; that is, they preserve 'he form "f consecration, but regard the elements 3 bread and winebelore consecration, and as bread | iinJ wine after it; and if limy have any idea of the real presence at all, it is unconnected with ?hat solemn ceremony?but is merely a species of intellectual or sentimental presence^ and this the only notion they have of it. If they idmit the real presence at all, then I will enter upon an inquiry as to the manner in which it exists ; but as they deny it altogether, it is not necessary to discuss the manner in which it exists What is transubstantiation 1 It is this ; that when Christ took bread and wine, and blessed and brake it, with the declaration, " take, eat, this is iny body," we believe it was so; and as an inevitable consequence of that benediction, it may be said to be changed from bread and wine, transubstantiated ; so as to be what it was natu rally, and something else spiritually?and in by words of Almighty power,is his body and hie blood. The thing iR exceedingly simple. II it has been changed, it is into his body and his blood, and then occurred what we call transubstantiation. At (he marriage of Cans, in Galilee, water was changed into wine ; this again is what ismennt by transubstantiation. But there is no use in discus sing that weird, since they do not admit the real presence at all?that is to say?as being identified with the elements in the sacrament, either before or after consecration. You know the Friends do not believe in baptism : so that it would be very absurd in them to find fault with the administration of baptism in one and not in another form This is all that is necessary to be said on transubstanti ation. Then having established it, after looking abroad upon the great tide of Catholic authority having walked along its banks until we trace it up to its pure fountain in the time of our Saviour himself?we may begin to ask for what purpose has it pleased our divine Sa viour to es'ablish this great institution. Accord ing to the explanation of the Catholic Church, and the authority of the ancient fathers, it is that he should give us that last and most perfect pledge of his love; that he should accomplish in reference 'o us, as individuals, through that sacrifice, what he accomplished for our whole race, in the aggre gate upon the cross; and, as by his death, it was designed to unite us more to the divinity, so, by this sacrifice, we, as individuals, within the sanc tuary of his holy temple, are brought into a more intimate union and participation of that divine na ture. But before enlarging on that doctrine, I have to speak of another subject. You are aware that n the progress of error, those who began what is styled the reformation of the Church did not foresee how one link should be attached to another in the chain of their work. They did not per ceive in breaking away from her communion that it wns necessary to institute anew order of minis try, for which they had no authority. All history, all antiquity, the universal conception of man's re demption, became changed and modified, and adapted to a few principles on which they conceiv ed themselves justified to found their superstruction And thus Luther could not, for a long time, get rid of the sacrifice of the mass ; but when at length he did, he tells us in his writings that it was is con sequence of a discussion he had in the night time with some mysterious spirit which argu ed with him against that doctrine. But you perceive how soon the altar St. Paul speaks of was levelled to the earth?how the sacrifice dis appeared from amongst them?how their temples remain without a victim?so that one thing after another disappeared, until that altar was divested of the whole body and blood of Christ, and all participation in the victim was narrowed down to the insignificance of a ceremony in which a few persons meet simply round a table and partake of bread and wine?exercising for the time their memories in reference to an historical event which happened 1800 years ago. Haviug once denied the real presence of Christ?it was a natural consequence to reject sacrifice. But at the same time, in doing this they rejected all that there was of soul and life in Christian worship; so that amoDg their descendants of the present day, the whole meaning and force and strength of the expression of our Saviour is obliterated ; the whole has disappeared from these words?so th' t they have no r.onception of sacrifice more than what we vulgarly attach to the word?that is, some good actions, works of charity, or sacrifice of any consideration ol value for God's sake. If, beloved breth ren, you look back to the origin of our race, you will per ceive that immediately af'er the tail oi man, God ordained sacrifice; and subsequently, when the nations loll away the error * "" * ' "I trom the truth into tho errora sf idolatry, they still rescr ved the primitive idea of sscriflce, and exhibited some races of the divine Institution by preen ving that mode ol rendering homage to the God which they worshipped ? And why is this? Because sacrifice is an act of Supitme worship, and without it we have nothing in it expressive of the supremacy of God?yon have nothing with which '0 approach Him as an offering, by his appointment, be fore the coming of Christ?nothing in all your canticles or psalmody, nor in vourprayers, your pious and religions exercises, that can be expressive of that dependence of and relation hetween you ami the Great Eternal who brought you out of nothing and preserved you. It is alon# in this Institution that this is all expressed. What is the purpose ot sacrifice? The recognition of the sovereignty of God by the offering of something sensible as a token offered to him to signify that from him comes every goo.) and perfect gift; that he created all things, that he super intends and sustains them as well as us now; that he is the breath of our life?for in Him we live and novo and have our being. On him we nre dependent for ail the truth and blessings we enjoy, and these we pre e nt to him, recognizing his dominion?and these being offered, they are accepted as in the esse of the living victim under the Jewish law Not because (J?l bus any need of our offering, but accepts of it ftom t* who nee I his benediction. But, brethren, there is ano ther consideration connected with this subject, and thai is man's original guilt and alienation by sin, which, al though admitted by our separated brethren, they hope that God will accept some other victim and establish everlasting peace between the offender and himself? ence the immolation of a vietim Is an acknowledgment h at God has a right to destroy us aa sinners in his sight he sacrifices of theJews were all symbolical of the future tacrifice of the coming Messiah; take away ,then,this idea of sacrifice from the worship and service of God, and yon have nothing lelt by which you can render to God the ho mage due to the Supreme Being. If you prav, you pray to Gad, and that mikes your prayer (acred, but there ?? nothing in itself ess"ntially excellent; for you pray to mm, too, in ordinary life, in which case, what is tnere in prayer to sanctify it7 If you compose sacred music, you do that which is very proper, aud consecrate it to its high est end But the same sounds might be dedicated to the praise of conquerors or eaitkly benefactors; so there is nothing, theri-iore, in music to make it a fit ottering to God alone. And if you examine the powers of your mind and heart, you will find nothing of that pe culiar and divine language in worship worthy to be ad dressed to the Supreme and Sovereign Lord of all things. Sacrifice is lor God alone. Prayer may be made to man, to saints, to angels?hut sacrifice to God alone. And it was by this rite that God preserved among his people the idea of true religion, whilst surrounding idolatry had corrupted them. It is on this ground we hold tho doctrine of the Incarnation. When Christ become man, he did so in order to be a sacrifice for us. All the ancient sacri fices of the Jews were offerings on the part el the people through their priests, to influence God, rot of themselves, or by the blood of oxen and goats immolated, but because it had reference to the sacrifice of the Son of Gad. And, according to the Catholic faith, it is not mere ly in the act of dying that he offered that sacrifice; not when in that passive condition in which he is spoken of by tho Prophet, ns the innocent and silent lamb, who was led to slaughter by his nnemicn; because he, himself, had power to lay down his life, and to tike it up again. But it is chiefly in the s icrifice ot the holy eucharist the Church has ever behold the accomplishment of this sacri fice in a manner acceptable to the Eternal Father. This U that in which he officiates as high priest, and partici pated in the offering, made by his will, and the exercise of his almighty power, aud exercised his priesthood, of fering himself to the Eternal Father for the sins of all the world If, beloved brethren, you enquire further into this subject, particularly aided by the light of the holy teaching of the Church, you 'ou will see how the Apostles, and the Tethers of Church, men whose writings became identified with all that was learned, as well as holy, in the primitive faith?you will perceive that they speak of ChriBt as the high priest, after the order of Melchizidec. And, on the night on which he was betrayed, he, in reference to that priesthood, spoke of himself as to he offered as a propitiation for the sins of mankind. This you will find expressed by all the early writers who make reference to the subject; in the wri tings of the Apostles, in the Acts, hut particularly in the lossage under consideration, where the Apostle says? "We have an altar whereof thev have no right to eat, who serve the tabernncle." Our separated brethren, sfitce the period in which this error commenced, are phased to imagine that Christ, by his death,perfected our salvation, and superceded all sacrifice; and one of the tea sons on which they pretend to ground this is, that if we admit any sacrifice, subsequent to his, we thereby represent the sacrifice of Christ as incomplete, and ours ts being supplementary. But this is not the idea of the Church at all. It ia that on her altarshe haa offered that same victim in a mysterious manner, who once, in an outward a'd sensible manner, expired on the cross. It is not, then, her meaning to offer a pew sacrifice?but she rs.isws that made by the Saviour, according to his in junction, when taking bread and wine, he said, "this is my body ?do this in remembrance of me." If then, brethren, the sacrifice spoken of is morely a moral sacri fice?of prayer, mercy,or good works?if these are the hings which serve t ? show forth our Lord, why did our Saviour say that the priests of the Jews could not partici ple oi it?Were thcynot obliged to participate in all actions of mercy I How, then, could they be forbidden, since nil men aro pledged to love and serve Gad, and do those works of mercy acceptable in his sight? But neither is it in this, for, in the ancient declaration of the prophet Ma achi, who, in announcing the fulfilment of prophecy, and the substitution of the substance for shadow, soys, that the time was coming when God should reject their sacrifices; that they were not pleasing in his sight?" I have no pleasure in you, saith the Lord of Hosts, neither will I accept an ottering at ?0ur hands. From the rising of the sun oven unto the going down of the same, my name shall be great among the Gentiles ; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure ottering; for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the Lord oi Horts " This was the language of the ancient prophet, and could not refer to moral sacrifice, which our separated brethren pretend to be substituted for those of the old dispensation. And why 7 Because this would indicate no change?because Gad always ac cepts them according to his own injunction. Nor can it refer to sacrifice r,f the heart ; for, alter all, who ia the man worthy to make this high declaration? But our se parated nrethren say Christ died ouoe for all, and con sumciutrd the sacrifice to all eternity. This is true. There is an infinite plenitude in the merits of Christ. But do they mean to say that he died in that complete and perfect manner that nothing remains on cur parts ? " What then would be the use cf even moral sacrifices, if our souls be made per fect hy Christ-180? years ago .' They do not sav, hut pro 'intfwiMnt in"'tic" conversion of the soul lo grace. Tn^y req ire the performance of moral duties, showing that there are means appointed by God, by which they are made partakers of his sacrifice, by which his atonement is made available and communicated to the soul, called eternal life. In this sense, then, it is that we hold our sacrifice is no derogation to the fullness of Christ's death. If brethren, you were to examjne without prejudice, the grounds of the Catholic Church for this doctrine; if, believing in Christ's divinity, yon receive his declaration in simplicity ; il you put away the supremacy of the senses ; if you put aside the false and distorted teachings of prejudiced edu cation : if vou examine the sacred mvstpries of theCnthn. lie doctrine, you will perceive in it something more ex alted than it is possible for human tongue to express. You will perceive the glory conferred upon his Church, snd upon that humanity he assumed for our sakes. Is it net an infinite glory for his Ch'.rch, that her minister, day t>y day, at the rising of the morning's sun, in obedience to the Injunction of Christ, " do this in remembrance of me," takes that bread and wine, ind, consecrating it, as he did, offering it to Ood, not in the name of the human race- but of his congrega tion and sometimes of an individual. Here is something we can approach Ood with ; and if we were left without such, how could we approach him in public worship Our separated brethren think they do Ood honor when they abolish the priesthood, destroy the altar, and leave the house of worship merely an empty edifice, where the people meet lor a short time and depart. Brethren, this doctrine at the holy eucharist is one upon which I might dwell many hours ; but I have necessarily passed over a great amount of testimony?that of the Holy Scriptures themselves. When you find our Divine Saviour speak ing of it as his body, and the Apostle afterwards referring to it in the same language; when you behold all tho great and distinguished fathers of the church speaking of the euchurist in terms strong beyond the apparent measure of delicacy ; when you find from the testimony of history that all sects and separatists frnm the bosom of the church?the Nestorians ?the Ku'.ichans- the Greek Seceders?all so embued with this doctrine that it was found in all their liturgies the same as we have it?from all this you will perceive that it is no recent doctrine of Christianity, but one which can be traced up to the days of Christ and his Apostles ; and so clearly is it established, that we have reason to believe,that if those who first assailed it were now in pos session of all the testimony since collected upon the sub ject, they would not have attempted lo deny this, the choicest and best legacy ot Christ to his people. [The concluding portion of tne discourse we are compelled to omit at present ] Atrocious Murder ? Our neighborhood has been put into a state of much excitement by the commission of a murder, which took place on the 24'h instant, in or near the house of John Tucker, on lot 19, ?Jd concession of this township, and which is about two miles from town. The horrid deed wan committed on the body of Elizabeth Tucker, wife to Tucker, and upon the Coroner's Inquest, the Coroner and 'my, after mature examination and deliberation, came to a verdict that the deceased came to her death by blows inflicted by her hus bind. He was in consequence immediately committ-dto jail on a Coroner's warrant. Tucker is a native of Ire land, a man of anout S3 years of age, and although a somewhat dissipated character, generally preserved re spectable appearance and good repute with his neighbors; his wi e was from the same country, was about 40 years ot age, and said to have been a fine looking woman. He came to this country about four years ago, and about two years since went home to Ireland and brought out his wife ; he has by ber two children, one of whom is only 14 months old, and was an the breast at the time of her de cease The body was found by the Inquest lying on a tied, but partly dressed: drops ot blood were found on the floor and at the door?the bouse otherwise clean and tidy; upon looking round, the handle of a broken rake was dis covered, which wasbloodv, with hair sticking to it; also three pieces of ash wood lor kindliog Are, on which was blood, and a pair of kitchen tongs newly broken ? Upon the examination of the body it was found shocking ly mutilated The following marks were discovered?a large cut on the right temple, near tke right eye, an inch long; a large cut on the forehead above tho nose, and an other behind the left ear; another on the back of the head, with numerous other bruises; wonnd on the right bieast, -uppesed to hsva taken place when clothes on, but thai they had been taken off after the event. His account of the matter on examination, was given with such ngit tion and confusion; he said she wsa whitewashing the house that morning, so he went and got hall a gallon of whis key; he drank a little of it himself; was thrashing in the barn that day, foddered his cattle, came up to the house, and found his wile outside of the dour in a pool of water, not then dead?she attempted to speak but could not?car ried her into the home, undressed her, and put ber to bed?could not tell what time she died, neither watch nor clock in the house; on being asked how he supposed she hadcomebyherdeath.be said his wife was diunk, that she had been winding sticks about her head ; denies hav ing used any violence to her ; they had quarrelled before; a quart of the whiskey was left. The above are some of the particulars of this horrid catastrophe, and we think sufficient to warrant his com mittal. The house stands a considerable distance from any other; at four o'clook in the morning he went and gave warniug to a Mr. Wesby, who, in company with Mr Ta maron went to the house.

Albany* [Correspondence ot the New York Herald.] Albany, Feb. 12, 1845. Movements relative to Texas?The Chief Justice ship?Office Seekers?Appointments for New York, tpc. Dear Sir :? This day in Assembly, Mr. Niven, of Orange county, presented what may be considered a di gested project upon the subject of Texas, in so far as the Legislature of our State may be therein con cerned. The preamble and resolutions are pub lished in the papers of this evening, and if con sidered by you of sufficient importance, reasonable remark and consideration will doubtless be given to them at the proper time. Mr. Niven is regarded as the leader of the regency or hunker division in the Assembly, and a man ot much shrewdness,skill and judgment in political operations. The fact that these resolutions on the subject of annexation have been introduced by an acknowledged leader of the section known to be in favor of the speedy accomplishment of the measure, will tend to se cure for them tar more of consideration than they might otherwise receive. That the course of " some of our friends in Albany," on this subject, is not at all relished, or likely to be relished in distinguished quarters in Washington there is no room for doubt. From a letter received by the writer, and which comes from one ol the most dis tinguished and influential officials at the Federal Capital, who holds not office at the will and heck of one man, we discover that very much to the astonishment and disappointment of a majority of the democratic party, some distinguished demo- I crats are found on this Texas question, side by side with Senator Berrien & Co. You may infer the extent to which such supposed action will operate in their favor in time to come. There can hardly be a reasonable doubt that Mr. Polk will make the annexation of Texas in some way and in some form, the leading, cardinal, characteristic feature of the years of his administration, until this project decided by the people, shall have been accomplished in accordance with the popular voice. Should Samuel Nelson be placed on the bench of the Supreme Court ot the United States, Greene C. Bronson will be our Chief Justice, in which event a vacant honor will be made for the Gover nor to fill, as best he may. Nicholas Hill, Esq , the present able and learned Reporter of the Su preme Court, has been mentioned as a gentleman in every way qualified and calculated to fill the lace of Associate Justice. Mr. Hill is acknow ledged to stand among the leaders of the profession in our State, and has for some years been engaged in a business equally extensive and lucrative with any lawyer practising at the Bar. The office of Reporter, although highly honorable and resoonsi sible, is yet exceedingly irksome and confining, and it is said that for some length of time Mr. Hill has had it in serious contemplation to retire from the station If so, Governor Wright could hardly do a more judicious or judicial act than to nomi nate Mr. Hill to Justice Beardsley's vacancy. This we say under the impression that Judge Beardsley is to receive a promotion which he deserves ann will Drobablv obtain. To day hordes on hordesof "outside" northern and western barbarians broke upon the usual quiet of this town?and why7 There were five hundred arrivals by the western and other conveyances; and all forsooth because " the Canal Board" had caused official and public notice to be given, that 1 on the 13th this honorable and highly responsible body would proceed incontinently to appoint the various officers on the csnals. such as the collec tors of tolls, superintendents, and other official subordinates of that class. In consequence of this incursion, Albany has an unusuallv brxitove and offiee?l9hiueu aWce-, ,But when thevarious offices shall be filled, and the town becomes once more cleared of applicants and assistants, it would perhaps, not be worth while for any impulsive or enterprising man to remain here for usefulness or imusement.
