Rev. l.. H. Chaplin, ID. d., preached remarkably good

The weather yesterday was 90 fine that nearly
every metropolitan preacher had largo cOngroga-
ton under his eyes, and as will be seen from the
reports which follow. the pulpit drew inspiration
from the crowded pews for the sermons OF
the day were varied iq theme. and
vigorous in thought and expression. Parallel
lines of thought were followed in few instances;
the Rev. Dr. John Hall and the Rev. DIR. Rylance
preached on The Christian Ministry" the Rev. Dr.
Dix and the Rev. j. w. Chadwick considered The
Aspects of Mourning;" and the Rev. DIR. Cuyler and
the Rev. Mr.. Griunell of Boston outlined the funda-
mental doctrine of Faith; but generally the range
Of discussion was wide. At Grace Church William

 Judge Gould carried to the Bar the same classical finish which appears in his writings. It would have been impos- | slble for him to speak an ungrammatica] sentence, use an inelegant expression, ol make an awkward gesture. His argu- ments were expressed in the most brief forms In which a speaker can convey his thoughts tO> this hearers. He seldom spoke longer than half an hour, and in the most complex and important cases never exceeded an hour. He could shoot quiver full of shafts within the circle of the target with such certainty and force that they could all be found and counted when the contest was over.
 As Judge, his opinions are unsurpass- ed by any which appear in our reports for clearness and that happy moulding of thought so peculiar to him at the Bar and in social conversation.
 The position of this eminent iurist and of his venerable master and associate. was truly enyiable To them focked from every State in the Union the youth who were to shape the jurisprudence of the western world They looked upon these renowned teachers with as much reverence as the young men of Athens regarded the philosophers who prepared their minds for the strifes of the Agora, the debates of the Council or the shades of contem- plative retirement
