The building is well lighted both through
numerooji windows and , h 7 ftylights in
the roof, none of which are stained or
otherwise ornamented. Below, the seats
appear to be cushioned only as a matter
of private convenience, which causee di
versity of color and occasional barren
spots painful in their suggestive hard-
fleea.
There seems to bo much cordial inti
macy among the membeni of the congre
gation, who are in general a plain, decent
folk, nppare ntly wt ll to do, and quietly
dreitftea. I noticed in a great many in-
Ktanoos tliat on taking their M*ats they
would, after a moment's devotion, turn
around and shako hands with every one
in tho pew immediately back of them.
This occurred in so many pews that it
RCcmed to bo the fashion. An old lady
just behind leaned forward and hoped we
would be ablo to hear Mr. Spurgeon to
day, but he had been “very hill on Fri-
•lay last" Finally, Spurgeon himself
emerged from pome hiding placo aloft and
pettled himself deliberately into a plain
red-plush chair by the side of tho pulpit
desk. At the other side, and a little bock,
nat a modost little man of thatinofTexisivc-
looking, black-whiskered typo which, os
tho French say, “neverinvented gunpow
der.”
Spurgeon himself disappointed me. He
in quite short—not over fivo feet four I
should say—with a round face, a little
longer than it is brood; in fact, much the
egg-ghapo of tho “Tabernacle.” Ho has
a moderate amount of side whisker and
coatee, his hair Wing block, but not very
block. His chin seemed weak, but was
more or loss concealed by beard. Ho has
ia dark eye, rather full, and capable of a
great deal of expression. Ho cannot use
his facial muscles as Beecher can, nor
modulate his tones so perfectly. But he
rhythmic movement and that great full
voice is the trumpter.
Such is my notion of Spurgeon. I hear
that it takes him but a quarter of an hour
to prepare his sermons. Also, that he
was elicid up by the Saturday Review the
other day for vulgarity, whereupon he
publicly prayed for that profane print. It
stopped. C.

and soundings prcpnr.itmy to laying the
telegraph cable from this port to Japan
and the Asiatic continent, started on an
experimental trip for the purpose of test
ing different apparatus for taking ocean-
sound ingm. The result was tho adoption
of ths machinery invented by Lieutenant
Brooks, with a recent improvement by
Captain Belknap, as tho most perfect and
practical. The first reel consisted of a
reel of fine steel wire, containing fourteen
miles, weighing fourteen pounds to the
mile, and bearing a strain of two hundred
and seventy-eight pounds. The weight
used was a diet of about t'uirQr pound,,
with detaching apparatus. The stcar

for similar work on the Atlantic
but subsequently rent in search of tho
Polari,—was brought out hero nt consid
erable expense to the Government. It
failed to be of any practical service, how
ever. in this expedition, as throe hundred
fathoms of line was lost at one throw, nnd
five hundred fathoms at another pitch.
Eleven attempts at sounding were made
in all. two only being failures. The great
est depth reached was fathoms, in
latitude 37 degree. . 21 minutes, and 50
seconds north, longitude 133 degrees. 33
minutes, and H."> seconds west. Die Tue-
earora is now lying at her anchorage off
Third street, awaiting orders to proceed
in rounding the line of tho cable to the
coast of Japan.
Gunikal Buckxbb.—A Fobtcxb Bk-
claixbd.—Something of a romance, says
the World, is connected with the recent
return to Mr*. Buckner, the wife of Gen.
S. B. Buckner, the ox-Confcderato gen
eral of Kentucky, of a certain large prop
erty which, when tho war broke out, she
had conveyed to her brother. When Gen.
Buckner entered the Confederate service,
and before Mr*. B. joined him there, the
conveyed the property to her brother
under a deed of trust. The young man
afterwards married, became a father, and
entered the Union service. Tho question
now was. what would be dono with the .
property. If he should die or ho killed
without making a will rv-conveying to
his sister the property die had deeded to
him. his child would inherit the fortune, i
On the ore of the battle of Shaipsburg.
however, he made a wiil of this eharac- .
ter, and at the battle named, was killed. “* me B
General Born aide, who commanded the
corps in which tho young man served,
knew that this will had been made. He
kept the secret, and after the war. in-
formed Gen. Bncknerof it.and the latt r, |
Vy his aid wax enabled to recover tin
. __ rhetorical artifices
or change of tone one was nindu tc feci that
there was in the man’s mind n vivid pic
ture of tho dose hawthorn hedges which
form to impervious a barrier against all
tresspassers, and aro so common on Eng
lish highways, nnd that by mure effort of
will he could start tho same quick train of
thought in the mind of every hearer,
had iit’wr Lcfor* t'o , !,’arly niilizttl that
there is something which can be trans
mitted from the speaker to his auditors
call it magnetism, sympathy, or wlmt you
will.
Tho prayer ended ho {rare out a hymn,
reading it over himself with the injun-
tion to •’.■'ing it ul through withone heart
and a united voice, as I urn too week this
morning to giro it to you terse by '
T.’.v,-; Boston.” #
Thereupon up ro.te the blsck-waukerod
embodiment of meekness on the other
sido of the table hnd proceeded to pitch
the tune, the whole of tho mighty con
gregation joining. This preceptor mark
ed the time merely by a movement of his
h.u.d upon the pulpit rail, and tho whole
hymn—-eight verso?—was executed with
a regularity wliich one seeks in vain in
our congregational singing.
After the hymn the preacher read the
fortieth chapter of Ts.uah. Of this he
made a tabs# lesson, but liis own com
mentaries followed tho sentences from
the text in the same phraseology, and
writhont any change of tone, his stylo so
extremely bibical in its inverriora and
simple words that the whole reading
amounted to what a musician might term
'oxegetical variations on Isaiah.” Ho
would supplement a passage with anoth-
er explanatory of it, give another read-.
ing, draw a lessen from it, and pass on to
tbe next sentence all so ingeniously that
I could not toll for the life of me where 1
Isaiah left off and Spurgeon begin
Spurgeonijvd the prophet completely.
Next we had another long hymn.
Tho second prayer was a long one. In
the course of it he prayed that the Lord
Jesus would look down upon the children
m.w worshipping in the room below us
1 (tho basement), and “would clasp this
whole odiflofr as a p'.viious casket to his
bosom—* oaftket in which m^j ve aO ba
jewels, precious in the sight of the
father.” This, again, w.is said very ef
fectively. and straightway started a train
of associatksis and images which helped
to vivify the thought. Next a third hymn,
which he n od Vi ree by vtr>o, the congre
gation singing it- after him.
Then the sermon, to get at which he
fumbled in successive pocket*, finally ex
tracting a small card. Looking for a mo
ment over the w>. hooM fax that >•*::-
contained, measured way that Beecher
understands so well, he tlightly bowed
and explained with much fervor: •‘May
God help ns in what we ore about to say
to-day.” With this simple
prayer he hade them look, in the 10th
Psalm, and then in the — v.*rsc, “the lat
ter port of the verse, my brethren, you
will nnd my text.” Only last Sunday, at
