The Marlboro Hotel is indeed a Temper

equal in this country, or probably in Eu-

and an obiging landlord, would no: be sal:

ing the times have been so unpropitious-
and numerous applicants for board and
lodging are every day refused for want Of

The Marlboro Chapel, which adjoins
the Hotel, is now nearly finished, and its
interior will present noble and imposing
appearance. 1t is spacious, convenient,
tastefulIy arranged and decorated 1t is
estimated that it will accommodate with
seals, tuO thousand people--probably
more than any other church or lecture
room in the city. and being situated in a
central part of the city, and able to hold
so many individuals, it will be in great de-
nand as place for lectures and meetings.
Beneath the Chapel is a large Vestry
Room, capable of accommodating nearly
a thousand persons, and other rooms for
various purposes.-N. Y. Mer. Jour.

eyes were turned on him, and all feared,
while they hoped. Hardly breath was
heard, save an occasional involuntary ex-
clamation, she is s!nkingl' poor fellow
they cannot save him! He sunk for a
moment then rose; all could distinct see
his hands struggling above the surface
but he again disappeared, and mems
hearts sank within them as they turned
away in despair. Anon, another cry
was heard" Heaven be praised, they
have got him, they are pulling him into
the boatw Even So Just as he was
disappearing for the third time the res
cue came, and in a few seconds the unfor-
tunate was again on deck, TO the great
delight of an intensely excited company
A gentleman somewhat familiar with the
"perils of the sea-" describes the scene a;
one,of the most thrilling he ever witness
ed, and awards great praise to Captain
Sherman, and his excellent crew. The
unfortunate passenger was a Canadian

A large amount of English broadcoths,
about $4,000, has been seized in New
York, for violation of revenue, and part
of the same lot has been taken into pos
