REVS. BELLEW AID SPURGEON—As shown to
us by the Photograpaers.—The value of the
carte de visite as an advertising medium is, we perceive
(says the London Review), not overlooked, especially by the
great sensetien preachers. For instance, there is Mr. Bel-
lew, who appears to have exhausted every posture, in order
to oblige an approving public. We remembef his first like-
ness, in which he burst upon the town as an ethereal young
priest in full canonicals, expressed in the most delicate
fliating drapery—evidently a ccpy from a drawing from
some female hand. His later hebdomadal portraits repre-
sent the curled darling a little more substantially. Appa-
rently tired of giving the public a fail view of his sacerdo-
tal legs, a last effort has been concentrated upon his vig-
netted head. And Mr. Spurgeon—why should we be ad-
mitted into the bosom of his family so familiarly ? We have
no doubt that the tenderest relations exist betwein him and
his spouse, but what necessity is there for exhibiting the
pair, in every shop window, on s rustic seat in the midst of
a wood? With respect to his many varied cartes de visite
whilst in the act of preaching, we may perhaps he permitted
to remark that if we saw a little more of " the wood," and
a little less of him, it would be a great advantage, as an open
rostrum does not set off his person well.
LIFEBOATS ON THE CORNISH COAST—BUDE
HAVEN, June 19.—This day the launch of a splendid
new lifeboat took place here with great eclat, and in presence
of a large concourse of people. The boat had arrived the
previous day from London. She is 33 feet long, and rows
ten oars d. üble banked, and possesses the usual qualities—
of self-righting and self-ejecting of water—of the lifeboats
of the National Lifeboat Institution. The entire cost of
the establishment, amounting to £6OO, has been presented to
the institution by the surviving children of the late R. T.
Garden, Esq., of River Lyons, Ireland, as a memorial of
their beloved mother, Mrs. Rizabeth Moore Garden. An
inscription recording this philanthropic gilt is beautifully
carved in stone end placed over the doorway of the lifeboat.
house. The new lifeboat establishment at Bude is now one
of the most efficient on the coast of the United Kingdom.
Probably no heavier surf rolls upon any part of our shores
than in the vicinity of Bude, and fearful indeed have been
the wrecks in the locality. Last winter 26 poor fellows
perished there from the ill-fated ship Bancoolen, of Liver-
pool, The National Lifeboat Institution has now 725
lifeboats under its charge ; some of them are constantly en-
gaged in saving shipwrecked crews in stormy weather;
and during the past 18 months nearly 500 persons have
been snatched from a watery grave.

MURDER BY A SAILOR IN LlVERPOOL.—Yester-
day James O'Brien, the sailor who so fearfully
stabbed a woman named Bellford on Saturday, was charged
before the Liverpool magistrates with murder, his viotim
baying died at the Northern Hospital on Monday morning.
On the application of Mr. Kehoe, superintendent of the de-
tediva department of police, a remand until Friday was
granted,
