First, on the part of the proprietor, in causing a machine conâ€" taining several ’fnllonn of a highly inflamâ€" mable gaseous fluid to be i)hood on the first floor of an h?tel ?ntire y o‘oppaod of _ Resoived, "That this meeting, convened i under the muspices of the citizens of | Ottawa, irrespective of creed or country, | has heard with sentiments of the deepest | sorrow the tidings of the disastrous calamâ€" ‘ ity by which the Rev. James J. Murphy | lost his life, in a manner so premature and I so melancholy." â€" _ _ Moved by F. MoDovear, seconded by J. Hexzy, "That the Secretary ‘of the Catholic Young Men‘s Society be in structed to request the tollowing papers to publish the foregoing resolutions:â€"Otâ€" tawa Citizen, Timzs, and Free Press , Monâ€" treal Herald, Gazetie and Sun ; Toronto Mail, Globe and Irisk Canadian." The proceedings then concluded. _ Mr. Ausx. Rosuatso®, in uooudm? the resolution, said that the lateness of the hour and the exhaustive remarks of preâ€" ceding speakers rendered it unnecessary for him to do more than ox{)reu heartfelt sorrow at the sudden loss of a member of the Canadian press, so recently added to ite ranks, who fiad brought to it so much intellect and such distinguished literary ability. He had folrifroud of the acces sion of the Rev, Mr. Murpby to the numâ€" â€"ber of Canadian journalists, and was sure the meeting would join with the mover and himself, in heartily endorsing the resolution. ; Mr. J G Moyrax moved, seconded by Mr. Jos, Rowax Resotved, " 'i‘h:t thi: meeting most cordially condale with Dr. Murphy, of Washington, Mr. Murphy, of Boston, the sorrowing |brothers, and with the other aiflio&o: members of the family of the distinguished and lamented deceased, to whom its mi;, earnest syimpathies are hereby tendered ; and, further, that copies of these resolutions be prepared by the Necretary, and placed in proper hands, to be transmitted to the relatives of the late Father Murphy, whose names and addresses can be ascertained." The _ fo ld?_p“d_:f Moved by Mr. Martix Bartus,secondod by Mr. Joseru Kaxnaxaes, "That this meeting a‘s> sincerely laments the shockâ€" ing death of the young and promising priest, the friend and oomfmion of Father Murphy, Rev. Father émh' by the sad catastrophe‘ . at t au Reccolet," in movinf the resolution, Mr. Moytax gave a brief history of the life of the late Father Murphy. W Resolsed, " That as a pulpit orator who held the highest rank ; as a contraversaâ€" list, whose courtesy towards those who differed from him in belief was surpassed only by his -'.rength of argument, his grasp of mind, and his mastery over the subject with which he treated ; as a lecturer who possessed the highest atâ€" tainments, and the bappy faculty of capâ€" tivating his audience by the literary charmms which he knew so well how to scatter around themy in rich profusion, and by the inimitable grace, and witchery of his mauner, that religion, literature and science in Canada have lost one of their abâ€" lest champions and advocates by the death which we have assembled to deplore ;" said, he felt it both a privilege and a duty. He felt it a privilege in being allowed, :n a few and feeble words, to show the chaâ€" racter of him who had been taken away from their midst,â€"and a duty, because they were under an obligation to him for having devoted his admirable gifts to their greatest interests, and, he might say, their pleasures. The late Rev. Father Murphy was a man whose like could not wasily be found in Canada No matter in what sphere he moved he excited the udmiration of those amongst whom he dwelt, in the pulpit as well as in the editorial chair, which he had but lately assumed. The rey. speaker concluded a most eloyuent and impressive address, thanking the YÂ¥. M. C. A. for »ffording the citizens of Ottawa an opportunity of expressing their regrets at the loss of the late liev. Father Murphy. _ ___ _ _ He moved that, " In the death of the Rev. Mr. Murphy the press of Canada has lost one of its ablest, most logical, and trenchant writers." Mr. Mclxtosn, in the course of an able aud interesting speech, referred to the liberal sentiments anl views of Father Rev.
