No. 4,708.] LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 18, 1861. (Stamped, ld. Additional.) [TWOPENCE I r 1 i with tolerable accuracy of what its appear ance will be. We are told that these domes are larger than any now in existence, being 160 feet in diameter and 2bo feet high. St anding in the open area of the building in that part which will hereafter be divided into " courts,' and look ing from that point of vantage as regards space and distance, the east dome does not strike the eye with any of that portentous expansiveness of which we have heard so much. As at present advised, and speaking without any technical pretension, we should say that hereafter the rest of the building will hold its own with the domes. At the same time it is not very apparent why they should be there at all. Repeating the opinion already ex pressed, that the domes will not, so to speak, crush the rest of the edifice, it is at least doubtful whe ther they might not be treated as excrescences and lopped off with advantage. The refreshment halls and arcades, which will abut upon and overlook the gar dens of the Horticultural Society, are still decidedly in embryo. Their site, and their dimeusions from end to end, are marked by a low unfinished wall, and that is all. Passing over that puny obstacle, • very pleasant view of the Horticultural Gardens may be obtained, and as matters now stand, all the workmen in the building must have enjoyed a gra tuitous participation in the fete and flowers therein on Tuat last. It will thus be seen that, whereas a vast amount of work has been got through in the pro cess of construction, there is undoubtedly still not a little to be accomplished in order that the con tracts may be complied with. It is one of the stipulations that all the brick structures are to be roofed in before October--• very judicious, if not necessary requisition. On this point there is some room for doubt ; but the progress which I has already been made, and is being ac tively made, gives some warrant for belief that this article of agreement will be ful -1 filled. Great faith seems to be felt about the place in the capabilities and energies of Messrs. Kelk iand Lucas, the contractors ; and when one remem bers the manner in which they rebuilt Covent-gar den Theatre, confidence in their resources is abun thirdly justified. On the whole it may, we think, be asserted that the Commissioners of the Great Exhibition will be provided with the gigantic store house which they require in due and sufficient time. It remains to gain some insight into the working of that more extensive and curiously-com plicate(' machinery by means of which the edifice is to be crowded with the rarest specimens of all that the wealth, the industry, the ingenuity, the skill, and the taste of the world can produce. It Iwill be our task to endeavour, ere long, to afford some information in that respect to our readers. -• For some time past the representation to the public mind of the advent of the Great Exhibition next year has been confined to an occasional brief paragraph in the journals, telling of the adhesion of some foreign country to the proposed scheme by the appoiutment of the necessary commissions. It is not, however, to be understood that the pro gress of preparation iu all its branches is to be measured by the comparatively meagre statements in question. Perhaps the very quiet way in which the work is being .lone, so far as the outside world is concerned, is a good guarantee for its being effi ciently and actively carried on. Any one privi leged to enter the official bureau in West Strand will immediately be struck with the business like air of the place. There is palpably a great deal going on, but owing to the severe adoption of the principles of division of labour and mechanical accuracy, progress is in a manner insensible ; awl though there is plenty of energy and quick move ment there is no bustle. Much has been dune towards the completion of the requisite arrange ments, embracing as they du transactions with little less than all mankind. Of the results already at tained b 7 the care and labour which is tieing besMwad es all elepartments connected with the Exhibition proper, it is proposed to speak hereafter. At present a brief notice of the progress and condi tion of the vast building which is spread over 21 acres of ground at South Kensington, may probably not be unacceptable to the public, and may aid iu realising to them the idea of the erection of a struc ture, &large portion of which, on the showing of its projectors, is intended to be of a permanent character; but the whole of which, as we believe, is destined to become a great metropolitan and national fact. There is indeed nut much disguise in the language of the charter, or of the agreements with the con tractors as to the wishes and design of the originator or originators, as the case may be, or of the plan for the construction of this eilisu. Every facility is afforded for any enthusiasm which may arise for incorporating, wholly or in part, the building which lain processof erection, with our national repositories of science and art. Nu little ingenuity has been displayed in so adapting the various sections of the building to those articles iu the documentary arraugmenta which point to its partial or entire acceptance by the public, for there is scarely a por tion .of it which may not be removed without absolute detriment to a permanent structure ; while on the other hand a very moderate exercise of the skill of the architect in those parts which are ostensibly temporary, would convert them into such a condi tion that they would deteriorate nothing from the unity of the edifice, either as regards plan or dura bility. It is with referents to the probability of an addition so important, nut to say preteutious, to our public buildings, that the consideration of its appearance and style from an ornamental point of view naturally suggests itself. A good deal of jocular criticism has been expended on the design, and Captain Fewke's taste has not been sparingly impugned. It has been more than hinted that efforts should be made to prevent the perpetuation in this metropolis of another architectural monstrosity, and certainly the artists who have hitherto favoured the public with views of the building have done their beat to make it detestable in the eyes of the world. The idea which at present prevails of the structure is that of low heavy frontages, oppressed and dwarfed, rather than crowned, by two huge domes, resembling globes for gold flab, exaggerated to an absurd and outrageous extent. An examina tion of the drawings of the building which are in the possession of the commissioners, would go far to dissipate the notion thus made prevalent among those who have given no attention to the state ments of elevation amid dimeusion which have been published, and are accessible to every one. Au inspection of the façade of the Picture Gallery in the Cromwell-road, which his now reached nearly to the stage when roofing may ba commenced, would tend still further to dissi pate the opinion that there is any positive want of elevation, or that the height of the walls is incom patible with the length of the frontage. The contrary is manifestly the case, at least to the uninitiated eye ; and after all, it is forth° gratification or appreciation of those who are ungrieved by the agonies of critical knowledge, that the edifice is mainly designed. This gallery is now in a condition at which some judgment may be formed of its capabilities for its special purpose from within • and standing in the interior of the walls, and loo king from one extreme to the other, it does seem, with its length of 1,150 feet, its width of 50 feet, and its height of 50 feet, to promise to deserve something of the name of a national repository of art ; at any rate, whatever else way be said against it (and , of its capabilities in detail no opinion can yet I be formed), at least it will have the merit of being as long as the gallery of the Louvre.

On Wednesday feet the celebration of the open ing of the new Baptist Chapel, Stokescroft-road. Bristol, took place. In the afternoon a sermon was delivered by the Rev. Mr. Spurgeon (who came expressly from London for the occasion), 30 which be advocated the claims of the chapel, and at the close of his discourse a collection was made. A tea meeting was afterwards held, at which 1,700 persons were present, in the Circus, situate in the Back-fields, adjacent to the new chapel. Very shortly after the hour announced for the commencement of the evening service, the Rev. Mr. STur geon came into the building, accompanied by the Rev. E. Probed. There wax an attempt made to cheer him, but it was suppressed by the majority of thane present. The rev. gentleman was dressed in the orthodox black, with white neckcloth, but wore, or rather carried in his hand, a white bowler hat. On ascending the platform several perilous pressed forward to shake him by the band. and the rev. gentleman fnelysocorded the privilege sought. He then gave out, with cossidemble emphards, the bynin oommencing—" Come, let us join our cheerful soup." After the singing of the hymn the rev. gentleman said : Permit me to say one word before we tegument.. I ant excessively nervous—l might say unwell—for the fear of • great crowd. If any noise or alarm should arise, let no one be alarmed, but remain self-powered, and there can be no fear of any danger. The meeting was much annoyed by continued knocking at tke doors by the many hundreds who were locked out, and Mr. Spurgeon inquired if there were ao polka oo the out side. If uot, he said, let them be sent for, and if those parties would not cease t h at metes Ist them be removed altogether. The Rev. E. PIIOIIIEnT then offered up a prayer. The noise and disturbance on the outside continued throughout the time the rev. gentleman was engaged in payer, several brickbats and Moues being thrown at the building at the rear of the gallery, much to the discomfi ture and danger of persons who were sitting near au open ing which had been made for the admission of air. - Mr. SPURGEON suggested that some minister should go and preach to the crowd on the outside of the building. After much mansion and disturbance, Mr. Spurgeon en deavoured to proceed, but was compelled more gamest. to desist. Order having been somewhat restored, Mr. SPURGEON said—Well, I must preach as best I can. I will summon all the courage I can, while you pray for me. I wish I had the strength I once possessed, but I have preached ten times a week so long that I have got thoroughly knocked up, and I find that 1 am ptting old before am young. The rev. gentleman then gave out his text, and went on for a short time with his sermon. At this point a great rush was made at the gallery door, with loud and frequent cries of " Police." Mr. Spurgeon turned round in the direction from whence the uoise proceeded, and said, "There are no polies here ; some of you strong men will have to go out, I'm thinking." A large number of the audience rose from their seats at this disturbance, but Mr. Probert urged them to keep quiet and resume their seats. Mr. Spurgeon meanwhile bent his forehead upon his hand, and leaned upon the rail fronting the platform, as though very unwell. A person got up in some portion of the building and said, " Are you not satisfied that Mr. Spur geon is ill?" Mr. Sroacgogr said be feared he was too unwell to preach that evening, and inquired if their friends would have any means of recognition of those present if be came to Bridol another time—any tickets by which they might know them. He would willingly come to Bristol again to preach to them. A Voicx--Prescb out of doors to-morrow. PORTSMOUTH, Barr. 11. The Plover, 5, screw vessel, Commander A. L.

THE BRITISH .ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADFAXCZMZNT 01P SCIERCE. (non nun own 'unman.) MANCHESTER, San. 12. The proceedings connected with the meeting of the British Association at Manchester were brought to • conclusion this day. We have stated before that the day was to be devoted to excursions, and perhaps • more leugthened notice of them than we were able to give at the time may not be uninteresting. One of the 'reunions was to the copper mines at Alderiey. A greet pat of this mine has been worked as an open quarry, but is sow worked as an immense tunnel or cavern, We entrains to which is by a very gentle incline. The cavern is perfectly dry and clean, and it was announced that during the visit it would be well lighted. The lode or deposit of copper ore in the sandstone is about 40 to 60 feet wide, and comes up to the 'mime in several places. There are also large deposits of lead tires running parallel with the copper. All the chemical operations for extracting the copper from the sandstone are in the open air, and are on an immense male, unlike any other works in the world. The copper ores lioniselves are very singular, the ore is chiefly 'menials of copper, and is extracted by hydrochloric acid ' and reprecipitsted by wrap iron. Another excursion was to the Great Marston Salt Mine. This is the largest and most remarkable of the Rock Salt Mines of the Cheshire Basin. The deposit occupies a limited space in the Triassic series, exists in more than ono bed, alternating with coloured marls and gypsum ; the structure of the salt mimes is largely prismatic, the prism being vertical. The salt is unequally mixed with marl, some part being quite clean. At Northwicb the rock salt bed that is worked is of considerable thickness, and is overlaid by • bed of salt of n lees pure n►ture. Several beds of salt are known to exist below the thick bed, but are too this to work. In addition to the rock salt, • very large quantity is procured from the evaporation of the brine which is pumped up from the beds. The salt manufactured in Cheshire amounts to 1,500,000 tons per annum. Another excursion was to Dukiofield, to the Dunkirk Coal Company's " A•dley Deep Pita." The nutilioery and plant on tine surface of these pits am of the first clans, and is depth the pita are understood to have no equal is Europe. There is uoderground machinery for working the coal, at an angle of 33 deg., or near 2 feet per yard —the part where safety lamps are used only, and also where open lights can he employed with safety. In the cutting from the Black Mine Coal towards the Nene! Mine • salt spring was set with at a depth of 700 yards in the carboniferous series. The brine contained— Grains per amt.

I cannot compose myself, and I doubt whether I can preach to you tonight. Mr. Spurgeon was evidently suffering from indisposition being verb tremulous, and being obliged to re-seat himself, resting his forehead upon his hand. A person in the gallery here got up, and said be rose to propose that they should sit still for half an hour, and the mob outside would have dispersed in that time. The noise on the exterior of the building appeared to 'Berne.. and, as if to drown it, the Rev. J. Davis gave out the titith hymn, which the meeting sang. Mr. Spurgeon meanwhile made frequent use of a bottle of =nailing salts, and bathed his forehead with water. th Widen.

Mr. Spurgeon again requested the gentleman who had proffered his ser vices to go to the police station and seek a reinforcement of police, to which he replied, "You must give me an order if von please." Mr. IPROBLRT —You had better stay where you are ; you cannot get out. If you attempt to go out they will all rush in. The person referred to, in reply to this, maid that he would go out through the window. An individual here got up and said it was ell secure around the building then, and that Mr. Inspector Bell had been there for half an hour, and had made arrangements outside, hut that officer considered it would not be prudent for Mr. Spurgeon to keep the service on too long. After a short time Mr. Spurgeon was enabled to resume his discourse, which he concluded without much further interruption, the sermon being much briefer than usual, stating that he would be very glad to come down sonic other time and preach quietly to the people. Some person having spoken to the rev. gentleman, he said—My friends wish me to preach to those outside, but I cannot do so. (Loud cries of "No, no.") We had better sing a verve or two, and then quietly disperse. The Rev. E. Pnoserrr said they hail, uo doubt, been en tertained by listening to his dear brother, whilst others outside had been very anxious to bear him. They could not blame them—they would very likely have felt the same if placed in the same position. Mr. Spurgeon, who had resumed his seat, appeared quite overcome. A lady who was upon the platform bathed his forehead with water, whilst he himself applied a bottle of smelling salts to his nostrils. He then went towards the door in the company of Mr. Probed, for the purpuse of quit ting the building, but, owing to the great pressure of the crowd, he was obliged to return end nminio a short time longer, after which he was enabled to pin epee'. .l us OffLIBRATID " INDISIWTSABLI AM; I. as Isrmase Imlay el patlones sad listens Is Malkin& et ti 1111 Ma, particularly nwaserwiwil I.

Yesterday the Earl of Leiosster,Lord-Lieutenant of Norfolk, reviewed the volunteers of that county in his beautiful and extensive park at llolkham.

The crowd of spectators was immense, special trains pour. Mg in shoals of visitors all day. The Earl and Countess of Leicester entertained a large party of the county elite at the bell REVIEW OF KENTISH VOLUNTEERS AT MAIDSTONE. Yesterday, the town of Maidstone promoted a scene of unusual animation, in consequence of the influx of many thousands of visitors to witness a review of the whole of the artillery and rifle corps in that county, amounting to at least 3,600 men. The day appeared to be observed as a holiday by a large number of the inhabitants. The number of spectators present amounted to about 15,630. At half-peat 3 o'clock Viscount Sydney (Lord Lieutenant) proceeded to deliver the prizes to the sucoeadul competi tors at the annual county prize meeting, held on the previous two days. The County Cup was awarded to private Andrews, of the 26th Woolwich Arsenal Rifles, together ' with the Bronze Medal of the National Association. His lordship, in addressing the several recipients, complimented them upon the proficiency they had attained, mod hoped that the honours they had earned would stimulate the volunteers throughout the county to renewed exertions. The review commenced about 4 o'clock. The whole of the batteries of artillery and ride companies were drawn up in order, and Viscount Sydney. with Colonel Luard, government inspector of volunteers, and a full staff of officers, rode pest the ranks front and rear; the whole force then marched past at slow and quick time in excel lent style,amidet the hearty cheers of the spectator,. The accuracy and precision of the tile firing from more than one battnlion could scarcely be excelled. The review terminated at 6 o'clock. When the commanding officers of the several corps assembled, they were briefly addressed by Lord Syrl 7 ney. His lordship said he could scarcely expect to Ind such efficiency in battalion movements, and the military officers present had expressed similar opinious. He be lieved that in no county of England could a finer body of artillery and rifle volunteers be produced than in Kent; and he urged them to persevere in order to maintain their discipline. The force then presented arms, and left the re view ground to companies, with about 20 bands. The street. were thronged with thousands of persons, who kept up a continual round of cheering during the march of the volunteers to the railway station. WEATHER REPORT.

Duriug the entire four days and nights the weather was of the most favourable description.

A correspondent, writing from Howtb, thus alludes to the recestlamentable boat accident off that place andto the want of mesas for restoring the apparently drowned. " A boat foundered off HOWth last seek, when six men lost their lives, only two having been saved. From what I can learn it is providential that even these two were recovered, in asmuch as the means adopted for their restoration were of the most primitive sod ignorant description. Some of the valuable instructions of the National Lifeboat Institution for the restoration of the apparently drowsed kayo since been Ireceived at Howtb and posted up in conspicuous places , is the event of future similar accidents. It is really lamenta ble to know, considering our proximity to Dublin, that Do lefficient means exist here to saes life from wrecks. It is earnestly hoped that the rocket life saving apparatus will ! be supplied us before the winter estate, and that the lifeboat station of the Dublin Ballast Corporation will be made effi cient. The trafile in this neighbourhood is very greet, sad exertions ought to be wade at once to establish at Howth owe of the single banked lifeboats of the National Lifeboat Institution, like the one it has at Sherries.

LIVERPOOL BOROUGH BANK. --a-- A special meeting of shareholders of this bank was held at Liverpool yesterday, upon the requisition of the share holden. for considering the propriety of changing the members of the liquidation committee, and other busi ness counected with the winding-up of the Oakrs of the bank. The chair was taken by Mr. J. B. Mumma, chairman of the committee of liquidators. Mr. H. BANNEN their accountant, read the following rert •In compliance with the requisition referred to in the notice which has been read, the liquidators anticipate the usual period of the annual meeting of the shareholders, whiz!' would have taken place, and must still he held after the 12th November, and present their statement of accounts and report to the 12th August, embr.icing nine instead of 12 mouths of the present year. At the last general ?fleet ing, 102,8581. Ils. 10d. of the liabilities of the leek re mained to be discharged. These have been paid off, with the exception of 5,0161. 11*. sd. of old claims ant yet called for, but which there are always Node in hand to meet. The general statement of the affairs shows:— Assets as estimated, 200,401. 12s. tel. ; creditors unpaid, 5,010/. lie. sd. ; estimated surplus, 195,663/. ls. Id. Since which further collections have been ludo, enabling the liquidators to make • payment of 10s. per share to the proprietors. As regards the past realisation of the ' meets of the bank, the liquidators do not hesitate to any that they consider it to hays been as satisfactory as the most sanguine amongst them could have expected ; and with the same policy and mode of management they have no reason to doubt the continuance of a satisfactory liquida tion, and a further return to the shareholders before the expiration of the present year. From the first the liqui dators have done their best, in • very troublesome and difficult position, with the single view of obtaining in all cases the :nest money for the shareholders, and they cer tainly think that they have • right to claim, as the result of their exertions, what they look upon as • successful issue of the uopo: . mising aspect once presented of the affairs of this batik. Mr. BRAMLET-MORE proposed that the question of a judi cial investigation into the conduct of the directors should be arranged in a friendly suit between the directors and the shareholders, sod some of the directors agreed to con.ider the Nisi* of such au arrangement with • committee of the shareholders. - Mutwequently the tone of the meeting became more warm and personal. The expuais of Mr. Moore, Mr. Kershaw, uud other gentlemen relative to the conduct of the managers and directors of the bank led to several " scenes" and to much Aeons language, but a motion of Mr. Dennierm'a, ap proving of the conduct of the liquidators, was ultuiiatell carried by a majority of one. On this Mr. Briunley-Moore denumded a poll. THE GENERALSHIP AT BULL RIJN. —The follow og opinion of General M`Dowell's tactics at the battle of Noll Run is given by a Southern newspaper, the Sothnel, published at Augusta, in Georgia :—"WDowell arranged and fought the tattle as well as any of Lincoln's generals, with their troops, could have done, not excepting Generr' Scott. He managed it admirably in every respect. and was very nearly successful The columns of Hunter and Helntselman peened up the Hun, crossed at Suilley's Ford, and attempted to turn our left, which was the great feature of the plan. Hunter did cross, did attack as ordered, and did force our man down the Run, where they had to receive the cross fire of Tyler's column ; and nothing but the protection of Heaven, the poles of Beauregard (who detected Hunter's muvenieut by the clouds of dust), and the un equalled heroic courage and endurance of our men, pre vented our left being turned, and perhaps the seizure by Hunter of the hLusamas Railroad at GaineerWe."
