TILE REV. C. H. SPURGEOr es NEW TABERNACLE.
—On Monday evening last the friends of Mr. Spurgeon
held a meeting at New Park -strimt Chapel with the view
of presenting their pastor with et New Year's offering to-
wards the completion of the now '.['abernacle. A report was
read by Mr. Cook, the honorary r secretary, of the receipts
and expenditure since the . court t:encernent of the under-
taking, from which it appeared 1r hat the amount already
collected was only sufficient to a rawer about one-half the
requirements for the completio u of the building. The
sum of £9,000 was already abs orbed in the purchase of
the ground and for other purposes . More than 100 men were
constantly employed, and the w rills were rapidly rising.
There was still at the banker's £B,OOO, which is a large
sum, but when it was taken into c xmsideration that at least
£30,000 would be needed by th a time the building was
finished it would be at once sewn t Eat there must be no lack
of energy on Mr. Spurgeon's fri:imds' part till the money
that was wanted was obtained. .3 'he gentleman who gave
£3,000 on the laying of the first s';4me had forwarded to the
secretary an intimation that ho 'would give £2,000 more.
Several gentlemen addressed the r c eeting. very warmly ad-
vocating the work, and remarkoi I that it was truly sur-
prising that so large a sum should :have been collected in so
short a time by the followers of thi s popular preacher. It
is confidently hoped that by the ere d of this year the Taber-
nacle will be finished and opened i rr public service entirely
free from debt.

The Rev. J. w. Hallwara was yesterday ap-
pointed to the chaplaincy of the 'Wandsworth House of
Correction, vacant by the resig g ation of the Rev. Mr.
Hatch,
