The great RnglIsh minister, Rev.
Spurgeon, had . grand jubilss in cele-
bration OF his fiTtieth birthday at his
tabernacle in London. Many celebrated
divines and noblemen of his own coun-
try, and some Americans took part IN
the ceremonies and Mr.. Spurgeon was
presented with a sum reaching about
$4,000. The Earl Of ShAiteabury pre-
sided. and delivered a eulogy on Spur
geon. He referred to his powerful adj
mInistTative mind. The various socie-
ties and associations under Mr.. Spur
geon's charge, be said, required suslci-

OF ffiy men. Mr. SpurKeon
has had 9 wonderful degree ofsncccss in
mis- ministerial career, and though not
an old man, has been prominent for
some thirty years. Perhaps no man of
the age has done more good for humani-
ty, and the honor done him On the OccA-
sion Of his birthday was but slight
tribute to his greatness and usefulness.

President with Thanks.
WASHINGTON, June 24.-ChaiFman
Henderson and the members of the COM
mittee charged by the national Reruli-
can convention with the duty Of formally
notifying the candidates for president
and vice.president of their nomination,
met at noon and proceeded to the resi-
dence of General Logan ana were usher
ed into the large parior. The General
stood in the middle of the room with
Mrs. Logan at his right hand and was
introduced to the members of the COM
mittee by the chairman.
When this ceremony was performed
the company arranged themselves in a cir
Gle around the room TO hear the address.
Chairman Henderson then read the tOrm-
al notification of nomination OF SEN
ator Logan as vice president, to which
the general replied:
Mr. Chairman, gentlemen of the CON-
mittse: receive you with pleasure and
accept with gratitude the sentiment you
have SO generously expressed in the dis.
charge of the duty with which you have
been instructed by the national conven-
ton. Intending to address you In
formal communication shortly, it would
be out of place to detain you as this
time with remarks which properly be-
long TO official uttcrances in my letter
of acceptance may be permitted to
say, however, that though l did not seek
the nomination OF Ylce-prestdent,
I accept 1t as trust re-
posed an me- by the Republican
party 10 the .adYancement Of whose
broad policy upon all questions connect
ed With the progress of our government
and our people, l have dedicated my
best energies, and with this acceptance
may properly signify my approval of
the platform of principles adopted by
the convention. I am deeply sensible
of the honor conferred upon me by my
friends in so unanimously rendering me
this nomina ion, and sincerity sthank
them for this tribute. / am not I'M
mindful of the great responsibility at
tached TO the Office, and if elected shall
enter upon the performance of its duties
with the conviction that he who
has such unanimous support
from his party friends as the circum-
stances connected with the nomination
and your own words, MIR. Chairman, in
dieate, and consequently such wealth OF
counsel to draw upon cannot fail IN the
proper discharge of the duties committed
to him.
= tender you my thanks, Mr.. Chair
man, for the kind expressions you have
made, and offer you and your fellow
committeeman my most cordial greeting.
When General Logan had concluded,
the chairman stepped forward and shook
him by the hand, as did the other mem
bers of the committee, aud mutual con-
CALCULATIONS were exchanged. Mr.. Lo-
gan warmly thanked General Henderson
for the sentiments, conveyed in his adj
dress. The members of the committee
then took their leave, with the excep--
ton of a few who were engaged IN con-
versation with General Logan and wife.

JUVENILE ROWDIES.
They Besiege House Under the
Guise of Serenade.


An act of disgraceful rowdyism, in
which the chief actors were mere boys,
urged on by dissolute young woman,
took place on Main near Church street ON
the night of the fourth instant.
\ newly married couple were visiting
at the home of the brides mother in that
neishborhood, and about half-past nine or
ten O'Clock, while many of the citizens
were sitting at doors and windows enjoy
ing the cool air after the rain fall of that
evening, a company or mob of about
twelve or fifteen boys, ranging from ten
to fourteen Years Of age, headed by IA
young girl of perhaps seventeen, marched
down the street and took their station in
the yard and upon the pavement in front
of the residence. They were armed
with old tin pans, boxes, and other
implement from which they could
hammer up Il noise, and at once set up
head splitting racket, accompanying it
with an Indian war dance led by tie
young female. Eliciting no response
from the occupants of the house by this
III cans, they next began beating upon the
front of the building and fence with their
clubs and yelling at the top of their
voices like the true little savages they
were. This was kept up Tor half an hour
without intermission, until not only the
inmates Of that house but the neighbors
all around were incensed and called upon
them to desist. This had no effect what
ever unless it was to incite them to re-
doubled efforts to increase the racket
Stronger measures were then resorted to
and the rascals were drenched with wat
er thrown by hand and pumped upon
