HORACE SUSANELL, D, D, The doath of Dr, llonace Busexeny on the 17th inat. at Hartford, Coun,, has removed ono ot the profound thinkors and theologians of Now England; for his reputation for many yoars has boon as distioguished in Great Britain sainourown land. Io was in his 7ith yoar at{tho timo of lis decosse, and had 80 long baen In feoble health that bis doath was not upox- pectod by his frionds, who doubted whother bo could enrvivo the presont wintor. 1t ts about twenty yoars sinco bo wos compolled by failing Lealth to relinquish the work of a paator, aud it waa thon supposed that his torm of life would closs in o fow years, and posslbly in a few monthe, Tho remark has often boen made that be had lved tho last twenty yesra upon his will, of which ho had naturally a largo stook. During thia protracted period of enforced with- drawal from ordinary ministerial labor Dr. DuenyeLt oraployed his pen with great power snd industry, aud in thia mauner oxortod his widest influsnco and gained his greatest ronown. 1o was born st Now Proston, Litchfisld County, Coun,, among the rongh hills which havo nur- tured so many distinguishod obaractors in Church aud State, o was educated at Yalo Collego, after graduating from which iostitu. tion he was employed for a winle as tutor, and was also an nasistont on tho Now York Journal of Commerce, Ho did not pursue s rogular course of study in soy theclogical seminary, but road and thought on the subject of divinity while engaged in othor daily pursuits, till ho couctuded to dovote himeclf oxclu- tively to tho miulstry of the Goapel. Porbaps this fact may aid in explaining the srratio courne of hifs subsoquent speculations—as it soomod to bis donominational brothren. AMen of strong original powers and of an indopondent and smbitions turn of mind, who have nof in youth been carried through s thorough courso of theological tratuing, fu tho’ examination of rival systoms, aud in tho roviowof historio con- troversies, are more apt than otlicra to suppose that they have obtained now light whon nn idon striken them which is at variance with the ac- copted viows of thoir co-rolicloniats, Dr. Busuneru's only sottlemont as & pastor wasin tho North Congregational Church in Hartford, knowa, sinco tho eraction of its new edifico, na the Park Church, o held that posi- tlon about twenty-fivo yoars, and proved him- gelf to bo, in thought and style, the freshest, most original, and moat thought-slirring preacher in tho land. Thoro was nothing par- ticularly atiractive in his mannor. His volea 'was somewhat nasal, aud his delivery had forco rather than grace. But his idess wero strikdug and ofttimes startling, his imagination was that of a poot, and hia reasoning was a0 now and suggestive and sometimea 80 paradoxical v tu arrest attention and meke a profound impross sion. It 18 no mattor of surpriso, thep, that in the courso of yeara ho gathiered ono of tho largest congregations in (Lo eity, and that his auditors ombraced an unusual proportion of educated and professional men ag woll as of businoss mon of standing and {ntolligonce. Ono saw thore tho lawyers, tho physicinns, the editors, tho tenohera, and thoso of markod literary tnstos. Tho carly part of his ministry was moro charace terized by simplo intelloctunlity than were his later labors.

Dot it was notfoad, in his [ater rainistry, that ho grow more spiritusl in tho soloction nud in tha troatment of Dbla thomes, until spirituality bocamo quite ag markod o charactoristio of his proaching as was origluality. o had much of tho tomper and atylo af tho old mystics, and took & deep later« ot in the dwsousatons pertainiog to tho * kigher- Life " experieuce, His caroar of authorship began with the pub- lieation of csunys in the New Englander, aud of eglo occasional sermoue, some of which lator were of great Leauty and suggostiveness, such 88 his discourseon *'‘ThoBes,” and that on * Unconsclous Influence,” which waa -ropub- lishiod abroad, aud at timos has boen plagia- xizod by proachors of moro ambition than hon- onty and induatry, While he was {n Europe, in 1857, ho printed & atriking lotter to tho Popo, which was full of caustic cnticism on facts which had fallon under hls observation in tho Papal Hiates, ucluding tho famous cholr of ounuchs in the Bistino Chapel. liie firas vol- ume was 6 smail trostise (subscquontly greatly enlarged) on * Christlan Nurture.” This awak- enod theological opposition from the Theolagical Bominary st East Windsor, which ropresented “0ld Bchool™ orthodery, and vecesioned tho cowardly dropping of the book from tho list of the Boston socioty which Issued it.

Thon came his book, * God in Chriut,” which occaslonod a etill more marked controversy, which called in question tho au- thor's soundness as to tho Trinity, the Humanity ot Chnet, aud a Vicarious Atonoment, aud led to hia belng put on trial before his Association for herosy, Tuat body, while not accepting his peouliar teachings, scquitted him of suy funda- meutal error, and,sfter s eimilar declsion of tlie Genoral Association of tha State, gradually tho oxcitoment died awsy. flia defcnso of him- solt was givon to the publioina volume on- titled *Christ In Thoology.” His subsequent work, * Natare snd the Buporontural,” won for him » wide reputation, on both sides of tha At- lsntic, aa » most ablo defonder of Christianity sguinat the essaults of modern skopticlsm. It did much to reatore confidence in hia theological soundness, notwithatanding the seemingly un- oribodox philosophy of the Atonement which he Rave in his subsequent volume, ** The Vicarlous Harrifice,” Thig {avorable impreasion was much " deepened by his two volumes of wermons on (ke * Olistlan Lifo * and other practical topica.

CORRUTTION IN TUE NAVY, Soectal Dispatch to Tha Chicaan Iribune, ‘Wasmxoroy, D. C., Fob, 18,~The House Na- val Committoo has oxaminod Varnoy, a Naval Conatructor, naw stationed st New London, who has sorved {n tho yards at Boston, Mare Island, aud Peonsscola. His evidence possesses s curi« ous intorest. o toatified to a groat number of irregulanitics in nearly all the yards, The fol- lowing 18 & brief analysis of his testimony: Whon ho was assigned to Mare Island he found thero, ae Naval Constructor, ono Hartt, whois now at Philadolphia on Contenuinl duty, Hartt was speclally intimato with all the con- structors and local politicians, and es- pocinlly with an iron firm which fur- vishod most of tho supplics, Great favoritism liad becn shown by the reception of material bad in quality and short in quantity. Varney supor- soded Hartt, and removed most of his subor- dinates. Political influence, Yarney sayas, se- cured tho restoration of 1lastt and tho renowal of many of his poouliar contracts, At this usme yard thero was a rolativoof the Chiof the Bureau of Construction of the Navy Déopariment, whom Varnoy removyed, aud who boasted that s would yot mako his pile out of that yard. Varnoy said that, at tho Boston yard, the Government, under tho advico of the Naval Constructor, Hanscourt, » brother of tue Culet of the DBuroau of Construction, bad purchased Eoma umbur—bendinfi wmachinery for $100,000, which was worth nothing except for old iron, as any oxport should have known. Varuoy sug- gosted that the purchasa must have beon a cor- Tupt one, At the Yonsacola yard, large quanti- tion of rejected timber had beon mccopted. Youchors for frandulent clsims which Varney had rojocted st that yard were subsoquontly poid. The Govornment timber resorvations, lo- cated mostly In Florida, have beon misnsed by tiio Governmont ofiicery. Hanscourt, Cldef of the Burcau of Construction, was also examined, o testifiod that the navy has beon entirely ro- modelod withiu n fow years.

He ndmitted that what wero practically new yes- sols hiad been construoted under appropriations tor ropalrs, and acknowlodged that thie was not lawful, Thoe vossels that had beeu a0 built wers nimost entiroly new, excopt that tho modol was old and that a very littlo of the msterial bad boon used boforo.

Tho Committes's examivation of Clapp's books dircloses no irregularition.
