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.

Several North Carolina firms have established them- sehna on the road within the last two years, and many of the citizens who own land are now making arrangements to emtaurk in tho business, though the price of naval »tecta at present is discourag ing.

The Nan Francisco Bulletin mys the United State, steamer Tuacarora, which has boon detailed to make the surveys 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 aounding-apporatu* of the United State t: Juuuita V*hi.] »a»dctmle,l 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.

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 York Cathedral, I had heard a collect read fTX) lbofw do«iring to purchase a good and relia A ble Fire Emrine. wffj find it to their interest to examine this one.
