Charlies Smyt Quite a large congregation, considerin son, listened to the Rev, Uhari wenth sireet, yesterday, when he pregehed with his usual eloquence on the theme of the “Franco-Prus- man war.” The text was:—‘We have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ,’ ‘Romans, v., 1.) “Let us Have Peace. This noble sentiment may be found to-day swelling the generous bosom not only of our illustrious President, but of every humane person who reads with horror the daily Fecord of the sanguinary scenes which are enacte Beyond the Atlantic. Gould the stifled cries of gagged and prostrate France be heard, as she lies and ready to expire at the feet of the two monarchs who ure fighting for “an idea” over ber tranipicd body, she would be found to uiter the same ery. the sea | communion with God.

Oxcnr Hugo. The Rev. Oscar Hugo, an Hungarian exile, who is sald to have been a flerce figating colonel during the war, yesterday preached the sermon at the iscopal church in Thirtieth street, be- Eighth and Ninth avenues. His subject was:— ‘olestant rights, religious and educational, in Roman Catholic countries.” The gentieman, after referring to the promise of Christ that bis word should | abide forever, the sufferings of the aposties jor whe faith, &c., he came to the subject matter proper of his discourse by carrying hearers (meiaphori- cay be it Known) to the “Estates of the Chureh,’? where, he said, the “veloved pastor of the charch” in Thirtieta street could not go to preach the Gospel without ronning the risk of tiaprisonment and pro- bably death. It was AN UNCOMFORTABLE PLACE FoR ProresTanrs, — { was Rome—at least for those Protestants who took | it into their heads while there, to pray or attend di- vine service as performed by Protestant clergymen, years ago that a party of Protes- | < forciply carried out of a private house aud | inear ed because they had assembled to worship God according to Weir belief, aud the minister who 4 had dared to DEVY THE POWERS THAT BE was made to leave the Papal States forev { everybody knew that Protestaats in Spain had sul | fered terribly from tiolic vlgotry, Men jad | in tat country, up to lately treaied dogs.

Wiluam Lord, of the Main street Me~ thodist church, whose able though somewhat sen« sational sermons have been noticed in the HERALD» is ut present the subject of a piece of scandal. Mr. Lord went to Paterson a year or 80 ago, take charge of the church in place of a dominie cooper, Who was frightened out of Paterson by the appearance of @ warrant for his arrest for tne al< leged committing of an outrage upon the niece of Dr. Baker, of Brooklyn, Mr. Lord proved himself a wide-awake, energetic, go-ahead man, and just suck “@ One as a new church struggling for existence needed at its head, and was accordingly much liked, He married a Miss Sykes, of Paterson, who, recently became heiress to a respectable sum, and in the aqjustmen? of which the domunie 1s alleged to have fallen into trouble with the other legatees, which culminated m= his committing am assault upon one of them. A. warrant was issued for hts arrest, but the mat~ ter would) wndoubtedly have been smoothed over, being only a ‘family didiculty,” had not, on the top of It, carfe the report that be had a wife Siv- jug in England. Then ‘THE DOMINIR DISAPPEARED, while the report was started by his friends that he had resigned. Yesterday, however, those who be- lieve the minister guilty most emphatically de- clared that he had not resigned, and that he would not be allowed to do so, an ignorminious expulsion being his fate. So yesterday the trustees were ubliged to hunt up some one else to fill his ulpit. Rev.
