presence . By this , time , a crowd of idlers had made their-way into the room - —and I saw at once that , if I yielded to the brute , my influence would be gone for ever . I sat down , and by dint of a little patience , and a few kind words , subdued his wrath . I did not open my lips on the subject of religion , and our interview ended in my obtaining leave to visit him again . Now , this man was the type of an enormous class of persons in the district . I It was very obvious that , as a clergyman , I could not approach them . In their minds religion was identified with priestcraft , tyranny , and covetousness . It had no relation with the wants and sufferings of humanity . A priest was useful in his way , he " could make all it right" on a death-bed , ! but he could solve no problem of social life . I soon discovered , however , that when I addressed such persons on purely human grounds , when I came to speak to them—as one suffering in some respects like themselves ^— at all events , most willing to heal their wounds—my words found ready acceptance . Where then , in truth , is my congregation ? Is it among the f w hundreds only who appear in Sunday costumes in the Church , or among the outlaws of society , who make up the heathendom of Christian England , that I am to deliver my message ? My sympathies are with the poor and outcast far more than with that other class who seem io tell me , by every look , that they can take care of themselves . H .

Diorama Of The War. J To Some Extent The...
DIORAMA OF THE WAR . j To some extent the efforts that have been made , at the Gallery of Illus- ' tbation , to keep up with the moving scenes of the war , have altered the character of the exhibition . We no longer have that gliding succession of : scenic effects endeared tousby well-approved custom ; the views are now given I abruptly ; the curtain descends upon each separate picture , and then there is ' often a long , but seldom a lucid interval , during which the literary gentle- - man talks balder M'Culloch than a literary gentleman should . The latest additions are views in the Baltic , showing Napier's fleet in Wingo Sound , ' the French fleet in Kiel Bay , the cutting out affair at Eckness , and other interesting objects and incidents . These views are shown and explained at the commencement . Then come the views of St . Petersburg and Vienna , ¦ the first of-which is one of the most beautiful pictures to be seen in London . ; 11 shows the city by moonlight , across the Neva , which is frozen and covered [ with skaters . The lights on the quay , and in tlie many windows of the
palaces , contribute greatl y to the effect of the picture , being so managed as to suit the various gradations of distance . In other scenes less care was apparent . A . moon , for instance , was a mere circular hole , through which amazed spectators could discern the tops of masts and another moon , belonging to the scene at the back . r lhe views on the Danube and in the Black Sea are of unequal merit . Among the test were those taken from tho sketches of the now famous Lieutenant Montague O'Reilly , of the Retribution . Q .
The Emperor Nicholas.—" Here Stands Forw...
The Emperor Nicholas . — " Here stands forward an autocrat booted , and spurred and starred , with crosses and eagles and saints at every button-hole , who tells people that he is sent expressly by the Almighty to protect certain holy places a thousand miles from his dominions ; and to whip certain holy women , because their holiness was not cut out and stitched and flounced and embroidered according to his pattern ; and to tear little children from the knee and from the spelling-book of their fathers ; and to drag , between the bars of liamnvs on wheels , the -wife who implored permission to follow her chained husband to the mines pf far Siberia . Prussian prosers would teach us that most of what is heroic in ancient history is mere fable . Be it so : tut here are authentic facts , not of the ancient or the mediseval ; facts which thousands have witnessed and have borne ; heroic facts , if the word heroic be . not dcroga- tory from tlnrdtg ^ nity of God ' s peculiarly appointed His deeds aro legitimate , and somewhat more : a word against them , even here in England , tends to revolution and verges on iinpiety !"Letters of an American .

MONEY MARKET AND CITY INTELLIGEN CE IMdny Evonlng , July 2 H , 13154 .
languor has been very great . Consols have altered " very little during the week ; they arc firm , and that is all that can be said—shares rather weaker . Mines , as far as purchasing and selling shares , are a dead letter . Peninsula and San Fernando , Linares . ' and all mines connected with Spain , have greatly fallen , considering the unsettled stato of that country . But the absence of all business is very manifest in the Stock Exchange ; and great fluctuations will ; hardly occur just yet , unless a forward movement takes place on the banks of the Danube or Crimea . Markets arc rather firmer this afternoon . Consols close at 92 A—92 I for account .
Theatres. This Is Not The Weather For Th...
THEATRES . This is not the weather for theatres ; that is obvious . Yet the theatres fill ; and we cannot accept the explanation of the closing ofDRURY Lane—that it is too hot . While the Spanish dancers retain sufficient elasticity and energy to gratify the crowded and enlightened Haymakket ( strongly condemning the lower orders at the Crystal Palace for their want of appreciation of art ) with their agreeable contortions , surely singers can go on singino-. Singers do : at Covent Gakden the season is still in full glory ; and even at Ducky Lane , on Tuesday ( when the heat was the greatest of the week ) , Sims Reeves contrived to obtain a success , which was an . event , in Massaniello . At the H-viMAKK-ET , Mx . Buckstoneis even bringing out new pieces ; and Stirling Coyne ' s well-coneealed French adaptation — " The Old Chateau ; or" something to the same effect—constitutes a pretty drama , so far successful as , with the Madrid troupe , to bring a run of fortune to the house . Mr . Coyne brings ^ out business-like , playable plays ; and this is one of his best . Two women in love with one man—that is always a good basis for a plot ; andMr . Bucistone is thrown in as the funny Frenchman—characteristically comic , and patriotically unlike . At the Lyce-cm , Mr . C . Mathews has taken his benefit ; to the •'** resources " of the occasion his brother managers contributing effective aid , indicating kindness in them , and suggesting to the public something honourable to him . If he will but burn his ships behind liini—we except the ship which went down so well two seasons ago in the Dames de la Halle—there is , now , a great ^ theatrical career before him . Grisi takes her benefit on the 7 th of August . A theatre large enough to hold the whole " musical public" ought to be built for the occasion . Indeed , if any of us could realise that the " farewell" is final , there would be something like a national " movement" to bid . her a " grand good-by . She is rich enough , and wants no " testimonial ; " a national bouquet would be inconvenient—what then oould be done ? . W . !
