SUNDAY RAILWAY TRAINS RUN: We have already gpoken of the v which thirty mi leay y" every Sunday for distances not le than the metropolis; we shail now deal with those that do not exceed a circuit of much more than twenty miles therefrom, and truly their name is legion. As these mostly run 'to places within a convenient @istance for an afternoon's visit, but very few trains are despatched before noon; the nimber leaving the London bd before eleven o'clock, at which time we stated the were closed, being but as one to five compared with those that leave after one o'clock, when the truttic is resumed. The figures which we are about tozive, itymust ‘be understood, refer to August of the preaent year. | Commencing north of the Thames and at the sastern er of London, we will, in a cfrewit round the metropo!! the various railway depots that are found in each of these stations severa) tines of railwa thereof converge. First in the order is F Station. Here we find that uo less than forty-six trains | travel every Sunday to Blackwall and eightorn to North Woolwich, from which piuce ferry boats cross the river to the town of Woolwich. Eleven trains run t Til Fort, a distance of tweaty three miles. This is situate on the Thames, directly Opposite the watering Gravesend, already alladed to, and to which late ferry boats ply in connection with the railway. Of eleven trains four are continued on to Southelid, a po; resort for sea bathing at the mouth of the river. Epping Forest and its wooded walks, a distance o miles, with the pleasant villages of Snaresbrovk, Woo alae ford and Loughton, there are four trains. To the series’ of villages skirting the north of the metropolis, from Camden Town to Hacine no less than forty-five trains are con from this station by the engines of the North lL Railway Company; whilst, after taking a circle of half round London, the denizen of the neighborhood of # church street can be seven times every Sunday near the gardens at Kew or the park at Richmoa Shoreditch or Bishopsgate station, by it is called, is situated some distas of the last named depot, bat stli at the London. Here we find unother outlet fe wich and Tifbury, the station for Grave Parting twelve times to the former and Fix latter place. The: also five trains to and the villages in its vicméty. To B-entw. miles to the eastward, there are six despatches, uu Broxbourne, nineteen miles northward, and ocer pl on the river Lea and the New river, the “croton” o London, the disciples of old Izaak Walton can pass nino times during the day to the scenes of their patient labors. ‘There are also every Sunday five transfers of trains froin | this depot to Edmondton, the scene of John Gilpin's disas- aster, and Enfield, where the royal armorers mauufac- ture the ritte of that name. King’s Cross station, to the north of London, is | en of North Wool md, trains do Principally required for the despatch of trains therefrom to horthern parts of the kingdom, Dut the local Sunday traffic is accommodated by the departure of five trains to the woods and pleasant walks at Hornsey, to the county lunatic asylam at Col Hatch, and to the rural twas of Barvet, with its img heath, and Hatield with ite neightoriag ducal mansion. ‘Baton Square station, like that last named, from which it is not far apart, holds out few inducements to the local excursionist. It favors most the passenger wives purse is lon, th to carry them to Liverpool or Manchester, Dut sul it will, voy ew ok the day, find the of conveyance twelve miles aiong its rout to Mar.

There are also two trains vac: 4 to St. Albans, whose picturesque abbey is 2 sou traction to the lover of archité@turai grandeur. Paddington station is situated at the west end of London and, like the two last mentioned, is more celubrated fo its “ long” than its “short” traffic. Its Sanday contaba tion to the pleasures of the local excursionist cousist in th supply of eight trains to Windsor and intermodiat® places the latter, however, having but litle to attract thereto Windsor Gustle, which, it 1s almost unnecessary to men- | tion, is the principal state residence of the Britich sove- reign, 18 twenty-one miles from London.

Bridge station, situated in almost the very heart of the metropolis, posseeses a very plethora of trains for Sunday travellers, as more than One hundred pasa out from within its walis. Most of these travel to pine’ we have already named, but they leave London ut » dif: ferent pont, aud proceed w their destinations by difvreut routes, that those ws have thus far spoken of. We have eleven to tho Crystal Palace and fourteen to Croydon, doth Stopping on their way at pleasant aubuirban villages; six of the latter branch off in one direction to Epsom, while five take another course to Wimbledon. We have also from the dopot six trains to Eust Croydon and flve to Beckenbam, travelling by different lines of rails but to equally pleasant villages. Blackheath and Woolwich de- mand twenty-three’ trains for their accommodation, of which number they allow cloven to pass forward tw Gravesend and on to the city of Rochester and the dock- yards at . Greenwich not ouly roquires as many as forty-two trains to be put down ia the bill, but also 48 a saving clause tue insertion of the announcement that ‘ adaitional trains will run on Sunday atternoons and ‘evenings, as required.” Let us recapitulate in tabular form the number of trains employes in this immense Sunday local passenger traffic: — From Fenchuich street From King’s Cross to Biackwadl +46 — Harteld North, Wo F ‘Mibary for Gra (of which 4 proceed to South Ena) 11 From Paddington to Epping Forest 4 Windsor Nertuern suburbs... 145 Kew and Richmon From Bu Nort Woolwich. .

The aspect of the various parks on Sunlay is, of course, somewhut ruled by the situation each holds on the map of the metropolis, Whilst Hyde Park, in the west, with ite adjunct, Aensington Gardens, will be radiant with the gay plumage of the birds of fashion, and on a fine after- noon in May hundreds of hanasome equipages will here fll the drives, the hackaey cab being excluded therefrom, we shall find Victoria Park, in the east, filled with a more humble but perbaps us happy a lot of beings. The fus- an jacket is there not taboved, norgis the hackaey cab ex perhaps, some convalescent xcluced, and iu the latte wite is being driven for an airing, imparting by her im. proving looks a halo of pleasure to those that accomoauy her. Of course none of the parks are so well filled on & Sunday as Hyde Fark, for itis always a rule that whore there is the most to be even there will be there the greater Lumber to see. A Sunday afternoon's walk in the park to look upon the gay carriages, the flue horses, the be- Wigged coachmen, the many’ colored footmen, and the fashionably dressed indies, is an event’ that cecors to many a London tradesman, avd mauy «London tradesinan’s wife, and many a London tea man's son, apd many a London tradesman’s Gaughter, exactly once a week. The, fine bands of one or other of the regiments of Life Guards play in the Kensington Gardens twice a week during the summer mouths, these being days upon which those who were engaged ia business could not avail themselves of the musical treat that the bands uever failed to yield. Lord Palmerston, during his previous pre- miership, must, be it said to his honor, instructed these bands to add Sunday to their days of performance, play pg on the latter day pieces In accordance with the chia. racter thereof, Tens of thousands immediately accepted the gift, and thronged to the vicinuge of the platform upon which the band was stationed. Though aot a word could be said ngainst the behavior of these people, the Sabbuta- rians objected, and the order for Sunday music was with drawn. On being at the time questioned thereon in the House of Commons, Lord Palmerstou stated that though his own views were directly in favor of the Sunday music, he had felt it his duty w order the discontinuan the same in deference to the heads of the church. But the people bad tasted the pleasures of music upon the only day that they could listen to it, and many public spirited persons, conceiving that though the government Would not permit a governmental band to play iu the park on Sunday, still that they would not prevent the pertorm- ance of auy band which the people themselves might provide. A subscription was consequently raised, and one band placed in Regent’s Fark, in the north, aud another in Victoria Park, in the east of the metropolis. The sale of programmes of the music at a penny each was adopted as a means of increasing the amount subscribed, aud the spectilation has been attended with such great’ sucess that the bands have not ouly continued their por: very summer, but the penny subscriptions th:geto, given in the purchase of programmes, has been proved uflicient to liquidate every expense. SUNDAY PUBIIC HOUSE EI It has already been stated that the taverns and hotels, which according to law are required to cioge their doora at midvight on Saturday, open the same at one o'clock on Sanday, aud we have depicted the class of customers that areatthat time to be found within theie portals. Tow doors are again closed between the hours of three and five, the period of afternoon service at the various pla. worship, after which latter hour they remain open re until eleven o'clock at night.” Some few years ag rulers ofthe Jand, foliowing in the Wake of » Scottish Sabbatarians, passed a law curtailing the hours upon which the allowed ope was too great an iuterferen $ ubiect for Mr. dohn Buil, and the Sunday riots in Hyde Park were consequent thereon, To this place the labs the purpose of giving vent to th such of the upper classes as drive in the Park, the former being detern noble should not enjoy his y afternoon in his way the workingman was to of any of bi tages on that day, It is unnecessary to state got his own way, and the obuoxious law was sp houses were to be public ‘in town” are closed at the y around London opsa : entire of the duy to visiterato their varius law states that “travellers Lalways «some of the suburban hotels, about the v luded to, the magistrates Wok 80 popular a view of the subject, add g word “traveller” so wide a definition, that in every cage they refased to cou- vic SUNDAY NIGHT. As night draws on the streets of the metropolis are in a great bustle; but the noise heard is not the sound of drunkenness and revelry: it is the hurrying of men and women and ‘children to their homes, as at the various railway stations train after train disgorges itgelf of its living load; itis also caused by the rattling wheels of omnibuses and hackney cabs, as they are conveying along the streets people who are too tired to walk. Perehanes, here and there, on their way home, a man will take his wife to the bar of a public house, and there they will both allay their thirst by draughts of porter, but having drank it, away they will go. Eleven o'clock at last arrives, the ‘public house is closed, and shortly after we find the engineer of the last train 48 poking out his fire, and the last omaibus has just arrived at the termination of its journey, again ig, etill, and the streets of London aré again lef the patrolling polivcwan, the sleeping cab drive maikin’s plaintive cry. ‘London has agaip returned tw the state in which we found it at Suuday’s dawn, but in the story of the week it is only for thi ore.

VISITING ON TH£ SABBATH. ‘The American Tract Society bas published and circu- lated @ tract, No, S11, discussing the terrible sin of pay: ing friendly and neighborly yisits on the Sabbath day. Hear what is said on that subject;— Iu no form, perhaps, is the day of the Lord with go little consciousness of eriminality visits and calls among neighbors und friends. fessurs of im KeeM LOL sufficiently aware of the evil of the practice; and it is Well, if in some places tt valence of the custom does not blind the eyes of miuis ters of the gospel, and deter them from giving the in- struction aud reproot’ which so injurious a practice de- mands. 48 & dissuasive from such a violation of the Divine command to “remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy,” let me urge that visits exert an injurious influence on yourself and your own family. Tuey keep you from reading the Bible and the other duties of the Closet. These duties, which are indispons- able to the maintenance of religion in the soul, and should. receive special attention on the Sabbath, can nowhere be so well pertormed as at home, where every one has, or ought to have, a place for retirement. Evel on a visil to your nearest friends you will be expected to mingle with the family in which you are, and will hardly be disposed toseek a place of seclusion, adapted to the serious per. formance of private religious’ duties. ‘Ihe habit of visiting keeps you from the house of God aud the Sabbath school. No Sabbath visiter will bo found uniformly in bis pew at church, or at the head of a class, or scrupulous in the performance of the other appropriate duues of the day. If you are the head of a family, that portion of it which remains at home are {vit without your guidance. Tho duty to sanctify the Subbath extends not only to yourself, but to your children and household. Whatever directions to observe the Sabbath you may give on your leaving home, thoy will be apt to disregard ; especially since they see you tranggressing the very command you require them io obey. Besides, by your absence you leave your houso- hold exposed to the temptation of going themselves from. home, visiting, ram ling, playing, if not practising grosser forms of violating Gow’s holy day. You leave them, moreover, exposed to the visits, evil example, and per- nicious iniluence of intruders from other families. In short, you will have every reason to fear thatin your abseuce the Sabbath will be shamefully violated by those of your own household, and by “the stranger Within thy gates.” Your visits occasion yourself, your beasts, or domes- tics, unnecessary andunlawful labor on the Sabbath day. You are not only to abstain from lavor yourself, but you are required to see thad your household ‘and your beasis do the same. “Thou shalt notdo any work, thou, no thy son, northy daaghter, thy man servant, nor thy maid servant, nor Wy etatle.””” No matter whether the amount of labor is more or less, it is clearly forbidden by ihe law of God. COLLECTING PEW RENTS ON SUNDAY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. No. 804 Fourta avesux, Nov. 8, 1359. T would ask your attention to the enclosed, a¢ a new aud modet mode of collecting pew rents, and worthy of hav- ing public attention directed to it.

You will sce that it s here systernatized so that no time whatever is lost—one Sunday the bill is presented, the next it is collected, and the third receipted for—all done, you will observe, during the hours of service. But, sir, could not this idea be further carried ont—could not the trustees of our fashionable churches form a large fund for converting the wicked newsboys, those who stay at home to read the newspapers, and those who go to the country for a morsel of heaith and recreation, by collecting the bills of some of our fashionable stores, milliners and tailors, for a small per centage? Our fashionable ladies and gentlemen are very difficult to be found at home when a biilis to be collected. Our polite Browns would sub- mit to a large decrease in their salaries for this privilege. By ineerting it in their gilt edged prayer book, it would be sure to them, and, while the minister was pray- ing tor the wicked world outside, they could criticise the items or devise the iaeans of paying it. 36, dishonored by. ing Evea pro TEE SABBATH AMONG THE DUTCH. 10 THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD, A writer in the New York Evening Post, over the signa ture of “Fair Play’'—it should have been “Foul Play’’— denies the truth of the representation which I made at the ant) Sunday law meeting (and which was sustained by a loug quotation from @ recent letter of Mr. Murphy, our Minister at the Hague, published in your report of that mveting,) to the effect that the Dutch Reformed church in Holland dots not, like the Dutch Reformed, Presbyterian, and other Calvinistic churches of this country, consider it sinful t ote 4 part of Sunday to recreation and amuse: Tent. f Which, i quoted, w which he was quot thus Suppressed were these :—* It ia easy to be ail this is the shadowing intluence of continental iu Franco, and many parts of Germany, there is a portect a!andon on that day to amusement.

This was all ( wished to prove. The sentences omitted—and which, by the way, I gaye to your reporter, who caused them to be printed with the rest—are of value to show that there may be amusement on Suuday without frivolity, and recreation with r sipation.
