! SEFTCH or THE BOARD OF BEoSFRs.-Ihe Kew.
Mr.. Cuyer. in letter to The CHRISTIAN InteHgenccr,
| gives the following notice Of visit he paid tothe
/ Brokers Board with fresd:
THE Board If Brokers is worth every PASTOR :
| visiting he would find several Of his congregation
therc, and would be surprised TO find hew differently
| man looks while he is listening TO ',ixthly, and
seveuthy' from wi at he does while roaring out, l.
bid che hundred for the lot seller sixty day. The
minister might get few lessons in c0rNcsataS ot man
ner, too for Of all animated speakers know of none
! who can surpass the Board Of Brokers' when New
York Central is under discussion. There Is still an
other for clerical visit to the penetraa of this
! Stock market That Board-room is the house OF wor-
ship to many man for six days of the week-a wor
ship intense, that he finds it exceedingly difficult to
! withdraw his heart from it, when he enters Cod
house on the Sabbath. In that room is his altar Be-
| fore Mammon's shrine he bows down. And whatever
he may be in Gods temple he is pretty certain to rem
der sincere homage when his heart is paying its de-
votons to the almighty dollar. Not that we believe
that there is any more worldness in Brokers Board,
than there is in Merchants Exchange, or IN Agricu-
/ tura Convention; but il is lamentable fact that
| human hearts worship gold with more undivided az
fectioD, and intense devotion, than they COM
monty worship their God. Idoatry intrlIdes every
where we need not 90 far to find pupits in which the
very minister has his idol in the sacred desk every
| word he utters is, secretly, a self-homage.
But to the Brokers Board. They meet in an out
cfthe-way hall back of Exchange place in place as
difficult to get into or out Of as ALaddns cave; la
the lobby are newsboys and apple women, and busy
! lad who is sending teeOrams through a tube Tor
Transmission to Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore.
The moment sale takes place within the young Mer-
curry hints the fact by lightning to stockholders three
| hundred miles off. As we enter the Board-room, we
saluted by a Babel uproar of voices. We find
about one hundred and twenty gentlemen assembled
with their hats like the English Parliament IN
sort Of legislative hail. Each man has his desk, at
which he sits until some call Of new stock starts nun
| up. and then he out toward the center OF the
room shaking his finger Violently and yociferaing,
I'll take you up, 'seventy,fve for the lot that's
nv bid Seller thirty days

gcther such short CALCULATIONS the above Tous it
Is confusion cOnfounded. But the clerk manages
to catch all the bids and sales and after the tempest
subsidies he quietly calls oil the list. Then the Presl'
dent-a well.salared Ofiicer-announces new stock.
Sometimes he will call dozen stocks with no bids bu:
the moment that he strikes some speculative stock
Ike Pacific Mail or New-York Central Railroad,
there is an explosion Of excitement. Men leap to their
feet fingers shaken and pointed back and forth,
and the roar of voices IL deaenlng. The HTSd mayor
of the Stock Board il celebrated broker whom we
reed not name. His financial fame IL w0rldw
While the bids are made the workings of his coune-
nance remind of Brougham III the House OF Lords.
lie steps out from his desk and snap, his finger toward
another broker calling out, I'll takeyour lot at thirty

operation i thousand dollars changed hands The
thought is >hcs into our mnd-what noble church
that would build In face should not ask more
than the avails Of single moments transaction, to

the man who lives in such a Babel Of conflicting
sounds and draws his daily bread from such a hot
oven Of excitement. 1t requires strong and resoluse
religious principle to hold fast to ones moral moorngs
when such sudden gales of selfish temptation are con
santly striking the canvas. man ought to be firm
Christian before lac becomes n broker.
"The converse is true. broker may be firm and
