At some of the Protestant churches discourses were delivered wherem the fickle conduct of the Jews was frequently agsimi- lated to that of sinners who for a moment praise Jesus but atterward turn away their hearts from Bim. In all the Catholic churches palm branches or evergreen boughs were blesscd at tne early masses and distributed to the congregation, Afier ahe Gradual came tne reading of the pas- sion of Jesus Christ as rela by “St. Matthew. ‘The suiterings of Christ from the Last Supper to His crucifixion are recounted, the wie in the meantime bearing palms dn their hands, When the priest reached that part of the Gospel which describes the deatn of Jesus ail fell upon thetr knees in honor of the consummation of man’s redemption.

Mr. Beecher preached to his usual large congre- gation yesterday morning upon che necessity of thurch organizations, and the duty of ail who ae- knowledged Christ inwardly to outwardly ayow their faith by joing some Christian body. The text (which Mr. Beecher found with some difficulty, remarking. as he turned the leaves of the Bible, that ne had made the wrong entry in regard to book, chapter and verse), was Epliec- sians il., 19 10 22 inclusive:—“Now, therefore, ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and of the household 0: God; and are built upon the foundations of the sposties and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being twe chief corner stone; in whom all tue building, Guy framed together, groweth unto a holy temple in the Lord; 1n whom ye are also builded together for ® habitation of God through the spint.’? There isa very interesting pregress of thought in this passage. In 4 civil aspect there could be nothing vo Greek, Jew or Roman more unfortanate than to be born outside of these nations. To be born a Jew wus the same as it is With us tu be BORN AN AMERICAN, The Jew divided the world into two classes, All that Weragot ne anything were Jews and the reat Gen- tiles. ‘The Greek felt in the same way. ‘The fortunate people were Greeks, the rest oarparians, The Komans Tegarded Koian cilizensiilp as Lhe greatest possivle prerogative. When, therefore, the Apostle says, “Ye are no more forelauers,” it carnes with it a thrill of meaning wat we can hardly apprectate. ‘This ig the fyure by which ne represents the eleva- ton of men in Christ Jesus. They forma NEW CITIZENSHIP. : The next thought is that of a household, which is still more precions tuan the State. The tamily is the institution which stands next to God. We come nearer to the spontaneous afiections of the heart m home-iife than anywhere else. The Apostle says. theretore, that they are brought from the barbarian’s estaie to ciuzensnip, ana, vetter than that, to the freedom of the house- hold of which God is the fatuer, All of this refers to the associations tn lie of Christian people. At the earliest period of the Church Cnristians grew together for purposes of support, to KEEP UP EACH OTHER'S COURAGE. Often there was @ necessily of communtty of goods. This was never commanded, however. ‘The Chris- taan religion depends very much upon social con- dition, It never Was Meant that Christians shoud be solitary. By association the poor and the tgnorant get imfuence and education that they can get now! else. soon as the idea of brotherhood was introduced, instantly there took place a precess of evolution and edu tiou that never can be estimated. It 1s the in! ence ef the higher natures upon the lower that 18 constantly changing society. It is this that works the peculiar ization to Which we belong.

Besides this the influence of tie members of al! these churches could be brought to bear there would be another Peniecost. Theology is not reiigion. Reli- gion is the spontaneous iorms of heart emotion, therefore the songs of the Church sustain the Church oiten through dark seasous. I love to think of LOVE AS THE CENTRE of religion and song as its best exponent. We are never brougiit into such union as when we sing to- gether. I think 1 love those I have suug with more than any others. Songs make doctrines seem no longer dark, but crowns them With light. ‘Ihe mil- Jennium Church Will have a service of song sach as ‘we never dreamed of, At present SONG IS IN KONDAGE, sometimes to singing masters, sometimes to classic music; and just now it seems to be in danger of going into a te to taste. 1 love culture, but the Deart is better, I would rather hear an OLD CRACKED VOICE singing from the heart than the sweetest cantatrice the world ever produced.

The moment you begin to sing for concert effect, we moment you think you have only to put your hand in pocket to get good music, that mo- your ment music is going into Bubyion. Sacred music ought to rule, though we want taste and under- standing, we Want HEART FInst. The Church is yet very 1mperiect, but it helps men in a thousand ways to be moral and religions, The reasons of the Church are inherent in numan na- lure; the Church is not founded upon arbitrary com- mands, Because 1 will not say that the outside forms of the Church are of divine origin Ido not say that tho Church itself is of human invention. ‘That which calls us to meet together is, in the true sense, natural, We are so made by God that we cannet live 80 well in any way as by banding our- selves together in spirita'l things.

SGUTH NINTH STREET CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH, The Christian Expediency of Keeping Seber— Sermon by the Rev. Alfred Taylor. AD announcement that the Rev, Alfred Taylor would review the sermon recenily preached by the Rev. Dr. Duryea on the subject of temperanee, drew together a fair congregation yesterday afternoon at the South Ninth sireet Congregational church, Wil- liamsburg. ‘The Rev. Mr, Tayior took for his text the seventh verse of the twenty-eighth chapter of Isalah:—“But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of te way; the priest and the swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way Uhrough strong drink; they err im vision, they Btuinble in judgment.” In commenting on the text Mr. Taylor said that the whole Hebrew nation had been : DRINKING INEXPEDIENTLY, and by thus doing lost their nation. But the sub- ject of my discourse this afternvon is:—“The Christian Expediency of Keeying Sober.’? What Is chrisdan expediency? St. John explained it when he advised us to keep our bodies healthy and pure. Tie word expedient means to be free of foot, free im action. ‘he word, however, 1s often used as an excuse for wronst- doing. In times gene by anti-slavery nen were ied fanatics, because it Was not thought exper ent to abolish slavery, At the present time tempe- ‘ rance men are called fanatics because it 18 not deemed expedient to forbid the use of strong drinks. And those who believe it expedient to todulge im strong drinks find in the Scriptures what they be- lieve to be an excuse for arankenness. But they torget that the Bibie looks upon drunkenness with disgust, and that the Jewish priests were forbidden by it to drink wine while they were on duiy, because by s0 doing they would deflie their bodies, Now, if wine would defile the bodies of these priests while they were on duty, would it not have the same effect upon them whea | off duty? St, Paul evidently thought so when he said in denouncing drunkenness that @ man bad | better be HLed with the spirit of the Lord. THR EXPEDIEN excuses himself when he armks 1 private, that he does not set a bad example to the public thereby; but is he to be more respected on that ac- count for thus defiling his body? Others excuse theinselves for drinking wiue because St. Paul recommended Timothy to take it for lus stomach’s sake. But if Paul had advised Rmothy to take coe. of squills for his stomach’s sake think you that these men would (ake that alau and take itas frequently as they take the exhilarating wine?

The Rev. Dr. Newman preached to a crowded con- gregation in the Metropolitan church this morning. He selected for nis text John xii,, 16—“Behold your King cometh.” Today is the anniversary of the formal assumption of HIS ROYAL CHARACTER and kingly rule by our Lord Jesus Christ. It is known as Paim Sunday from the fact that when the Master entered Jerusalem His disciples and the mul- titude waved brauches of the paim tree before him. Prior to this day the people had desired to make Christ King, and it is more than intimated that the proposition came from the rulers of the nation, but the bour had not come and he refused it. But now he asserts this rignt wm the text. THR PROPHECY of Zachariah, 587 years before Christ, is in keeping with vhese words, 1 address you to-day to trace the fulfilment of prophecy, and to constaer two points—tne King and the kingdom, such 1s the confidence of man in the possibility of prophecy that all nations have had means or attempted means of ascertaining the fature. ‘Thus the Scottish highianders had their second sight, the Capadians their sor- cerers, the Africans their obi, polished nations of the past their oracles, and those of the present thetr astrologers. Compared with these how retiavle are the prophecies of the old Hebrews in reference to Christ? They are the impregnable delence of the believer. THEY DESCRIBE CHRIST'S PERSON, foretell His deeds and the very words that He shoula utter, so that in the lapse of time the language of the prophet became the record of the historian. The first definite prediction of the Messianic charac- ter of Jesus is in Genesis, and was uttered by the grandson of Abraham while blessing his twelve sons, when he sad, “The sceptre shall not depart from Judah. nor a Jawgiver from between his feet till Siloh come and with him sharo in the gathering of the people.” Shiloh signified apostle and apostle means sent. Christ was sent from the Father, and no man was ever awended by greater multitudes, He found r LITTLE FAVOR WITH THE GREAT, but the common people heard Him gladly, and happy is he who has the hearts of the masses of mankind. The day after Christ was born the sceptre departed from Judah; for ry . dy & decree of Augustus Cesar, Judea was made @ Koman province. Isaiah, seven hundred years before the birth ol Christ, prophesied of Him, bat the most exact prophecy of the nature and extent of His kingdom was made by Daniel. Then we come down to Zach- arias, who, six hundred years before it transpired, described the event we celebrate to-day—Christ’s entry into Jerusajem as king. With what humility He beard the shouts and hosannas, WAS HE HLATED BY THEM? Itrow not. A great soul cannot eear the shouts of the multitude. After His coronation did Be cele- brate the event by Biyey © No; but by cleansing the temple, Such isthe king. What t# tho King: dom? It i# founded upon consent.

Both are essential to civilization. It is the province of the State to protect society; to protect man m bis natural and aired rights, to pun- ish crime and protect the innocent; to make such laws as shall advance the happiness and glory of the people. It is. the duty of the State to rovide education for her children, for no State can vive without inielligence of the common mind, Again, it 1s its duty to protect the Church in its worship and mission of love. But beyond this the province of the Fiate is not to join its relation to the Church, and the present efforts to promote an alliance between the two is ruinous, Its tendency is vo end in RELIGIOUS WAR, and we cannot but look with apprehension on those citizens who would seek an amendment of the con- stitution of the United States by a clause recoa- nizing Christianity. If it could be accomplished it would bea bootless effort. lt would create excite- menis that would be evil through the land, It would resule in no good. God wants His name written on the hearts of his peo- pie and not on parchment, The name of od was written all over the Jewisn nation and yet God gave it up to the devil, The imme of Cbrist 18 written ail over ee, and if France is not given over to the devil, certainly the devil has come to France, The name of God isin the Declaration of Independence, and upon that is based tne constitu- tion, and that to-day Inco:porates the great princi- les ot truth and justico ‘and recognizes the great rotherhoed of men. Surety, then, it cannot be the province of the State to extend PATRONAGE TO SECTARIAN INSTITUTIONS, for the denommmation most in favor with the admin- istration Would be supported atthe expense of tie whole, Dr. Newman then considered the relation of the Chureh to the State the grand principles of jus- tice. The holy senuument of righteousness embraced in civil iegisiation, as found in the Bible govern- ment, rests on the moral senuiments of the people which comes from the Church, Close that book, burn our churenes, exile our clergy, abolish the Sabbath, and what would become of your government or any other government? ‘The churet is the religious teacher of the stute. The object of the two 1s identical. ‘The state as well as the church 1s of divine origin, In proportion as we recognize this fact shali we gather strength to sub- due the world to Jhrist.

Dr. Sunderland on the Truc Christian—The Attributes and equirements of True Chris- tanity. WASHINGTON, April 2, 1871, Rev. Dr. Sunderland, of the First Presbyterian church, preached yesterday morning on WHAT MAKE3 A CHRISTIAN, taking his vext irom Acts x1., 26:—**And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.” The text raised the quesuon, what makes a Chnistian? Some answer this, in a general way, that a Christian is a disciple of Christ, and that which makes a general disciple of Christ is the same that makes a Christian. Disciple is derived from the Latin discere, and is the same term that was applied to the learners or lollowers of the Pagan philosophers. But in about the year 44, to distinguish the. followers of Christ from those of ail other public teachers, they were called Christians, taking thelr designation from christ, their master, We find, then, that there are really two things which may pro- perly be said to moke @ Christian. There are two things which make a aisciple of Christ, that 1s, following Him and learing of Him. This, however, implies certain other things, namely—that we recognize His divine authority, that we choose Him freely and voluntarily out of all others as our souls’ Supreme Master, that we accept His instructions and submit to His dis- cipline, that we dauy strive for new onedience and closer resemblance to Him as every faithful disciple should do by His Master; that we believe in Him as our substitute under the Jaw and before the government of God; that we apprehend Him in His various ofMices and relations, and give onrseives up wholly to His guidance and control; that we trust Him for every- thing, and especially everything that can condace to ony highest welfare; that we shall tros! lim now and forever. In short, that we rely upon Him alone alike for the SOLACE OF THE PRESENT LIFE and for the triumph of the time to come. This is what makes a Christian. There are severai false notions respecting what makes a Christian, some going to one extreme and some to another. Many suppose that to be a Chistian is to be born in a Chris tian country, having Christian parents and a Chris- tian education and « hristian opportunities and privi- leges, or visibie membership in a Christian Charch; but one may be disti@cuished for all those tuings and yet not be a true. genuine disciple of Christ. On the other hand, there are those who suppose that to be a Christian one must live without sin, and they quote the passage in John—"He that is born of God cannot sin.” But if this be literally so wnat shall we do with the pub- lican who prayed, “God be merciful to me, a sin- ner,’? and went down to his house justified rather than the Pharisee who boasted that he bad not sinned like that pubtican’ What shall we do with Peter, Paul, Moses and with David’ The passage quoted simply heres the antagonism between the spiritual and the carnal, the warlare against sin which the Christian must wage. It is supposed sometimes that what makes a Christian ts isolation from the world, a separation from secular pursuits; but the duty of Christians, as well as of other men, is to be not slothful in business, and, beyond ail men, they are to be fervent in spir.t. serviag the Lands any one will not work he shall not eat. Paul, THE GREATEST OF THE APOSTLES, was a tent maker, Peter was a fisherman, Matthew was a publican. Again, it is supposed that one must abstain from innocent amusements, and de- prive himself of all personal comfort, and impose upon himseif every sort of sacrifice, While it may be and should he conceived that there 1s an obliga- tion on every man to do all he can for the good of others, it Is not to be imagined for a singie instant that in order to be a Christian @ man must put away from him every means of his own enjoyment, every power and facility for his own proper recreation and refreshment, Nor can it be maintainea that in or- der to be a true Christian one must be connected with some hierarchical or exclusive denomination, Dr. Sunderland then quoted the testimony of ‘Henry Rogers concerning his fnend, Jonn Fuller, as an evidence of what a Christian should be, and referred to the descriptions of Christian and unchristian character that Buayan had given. Diversity of Christian character does not imply vital defect, We should not expect or desire the good to be all alike, any more than we wonld have all the members of a family alike or all the flowers alike. There are two functions of the Christian in this world. He 18 to act as soldier, and he is to be the light of the world, A city that 1s set on a hill can- not be hid. We see first that in making men Uniis- tian we strike at the root of all human evil, Tt 18 idleto say that the experience of human want and misery is in our surroundings in our physical condition, 1t1s MERE SENTIMENTALISM to say that individuals are not responsible, but that it is society in general. All reformation ‘hat pro- ceeds upon this principle will pe fallacious anil utterly fail, Dr. Sunderland closet with an earnest application of the text to his hearers, GRACE CHURCH, JERSEY CITY.

Grace church, which 1s located at the intersection of Erie and South Seventh streets, is one of the handsomest edifices devoted to religious purpozes in Jersev City, and has a congregation of worship- pers as fashionable as devout and possessing the additional recommendation of being numerous. At the morning service yesterday the pastor, the Rev. 8 M. Rice, delivered an eloquent and impressive discourse upon charity, in the course of which he expatiated upon the duty develving upon all true Christians to extend aid to the poor in pro- portion to their means. More particularly was this duty imperative in the present penitential season. all who had faithfully, in compliance with the wishes of the Churen, fastea and abstained during the season of Lent, had, Independent of the SPIRITUAL ADVANTAGES, glowing from the mortification of their carnal appe- Utes, Saved aceriain amount of money. That sum, be it great or small, they were bound to devote to the poor, providentially placed in a@ position of de- ndence upon their bounty.

Kane, living on the same floor. Subsequently Mrs. Bowe went down stairs to see Mr. Connolly, a friend of her husband, and asked that he should intercede with Bowe for her return. This he did with success, and shortly after- wards Bowe compelled her to ascend to the roof of the house during the peiting rain storm, and threat- ened to keep her there all night. He relented, how- ever, and permitted her to come down, after which the quarrel was renewed and continued wll a late hour. Shortly before midnight Mrs. Ford, occupy- ing apartments adjoining those of Bowe, heard a loud noise in the room of the latter, as if some one had fallen heavily on the floor or against the parti- tion, directly after which Mrs. Bowe groaned heavily and continued to do so for a long gline. The fall was 80 heavy that it aimost shook the lamp from the table in Mrs. Ford's room, and came near apsetting the table itself, ‘The inevitavle conciusion was that Bowe had KNOCKED HIS WIFE DOWN, but as that was of such frequent occurrence neither Ford nor his wife thought it worth while to Inferfere, although they heard the unfortunate woman ex- clam “O my God!’ After that ail was quiet be- tween Bowe and his wife, ana esterday morning BL Lucy, who had his suspicions aroused from what he had heara the previous mgnt, went up stairs and looking through a crevice tn the board partition saw Mrs. Bowe lying on the floor apparently insensible, A | and immediately informed some of the persons in | the house that he feared Mrs. Bowe was DEAD OR DYING. _ This announcement created an intense excite- ment, in which Bowe himself evidently snared; for avout that time for the first, perhaps, realizing tae probable consequences of his brutal violence, be was seen to run from the house and call A DOCTOR AND A PRIEST; whereupon Mr. Connolly and others rushed np to the room, and. bursting in the oor, wajch the 1ugi- tive had locked after him, found Mrs. Bowe quite in- sensible and evidently in a dying condition, The physician and the Kev. Father O’Farreil, who had been summoned, Were soon in attendance, but Mrs, Bowe sank rapidly and died son after their arrival. As the alleged wife murderer failed to return Cap- tain Speight, of the Twenty-seventh precinct, was commanicated with. He sent policemen in search of Bowe, who was subsequentiy arrested vy oMicer Burke in the groggery corner of Dey aud Washing- ie act of swallowing a draught of liquid poison, After reaching the station house Bowe admitted that bis wife was drunk and abusive the might previous, and said he kicked and struck her. On the floor of their room biood spots were dis- covered, and an old cloth, partially saturated with bleod, was found in ihe room, which mdicated that Bowe had been destroying evidences of bis guilt as lar as possible, Coroner Schirmer wiil to-day hold an inquest on the body of Mrs. Bowe, and @ post-mortem exami- nation, to be made by Dr. Joseyh Cashman, will reveal the true cause of death.

It is doubttal if any set of professional base ball players were ever more badly frightened in their lives than were the White Stockings about the seventh inning of thelr game with the Lone Stars of New Orleans last Sunday at the Crescent City. Last year they went down there with a lively ball, and before they quit tne place had most thoroughiy de- moraiized every club in that vicinity, so outrage- ously did they beat them, Indeed, the Southerners had just no show at all with the “eignteen hundred dollar nine,” and it is not at all to be wondered at what they became heariily disgusted with themaeives at regards ball tossing. On the princt- ple that ‘what has been done can be done again,” especially with thelr newly organized team, the Chicago lads set out for New Orleans about the maddie of last month with high spirits and pletho- ric pocketbooks aud bent on completely ‘‘smash- ing’’ everything in the form of base ball players that should have the temerity to oppose them upon the turfed fleld, besideq collecting in any and all moneys the Crescent City “sporta’’ might feel like Investing upon the games at any odds whatever. Arrived there and having “done” the town, they patiently waltea for the Sabbath—the favorite day fer all outdoor sports in this model (?) Southern city—when they should amuse tuemselves for an hour or two with the Lone Stars, the champions of the Soutn, The day and hour at last arrived, and an immense throng of brave men and fair women congregated upon the field to witness the contest, if, Indeed, it migat be aiguuted by euch a name. After the selection of an umpire considerable controversy arose as to the rules that should govern them—those adopted by Players, owing to the vacillating conduct of Mr. Haynie, its secretary, not having been printed yet; but a com- promise was tinally inaue, and the game began with the White Stockings at the bat, They took things ex- ceedingly easy and careless, and, in fact, appeared 80 sluggish and sieepy that several of the tender- hearted ladies who were loeking on were wont to make such remarks as ‘Poor, dear fellows, how the climate does seem to affect them,’ But tne Southern boys soon Woke them up, for they were retired for a round 0, In the next inning the white boys suc- ceeded, after a deal of hard work, in making one ran and disposing of the Stars with a whitewash. It was in the third inning, however, that the would-be champions found themselves in precisely the same tx Mr. Bui Nye got himself into wheu he essayed a quiet Ltule game ol euchre with that heaihen Chinee who was playing @ game he did net understand; for dt Was at this stage of the proceedings on ine part of the Loue Stars that The points that they made Were quite frightiul to see, they hitting the Charmer right and left until they had mare the handsome score of six runs, allow. lug the Carcagoes but two. ‘The score now stood KIX to three i favor of the New Orieans boys, and the crowd of spectators cheered accordingly. Sharp play was now the order of the day, for the Whites readily saw t.ey had no “slouches” to veal with. In tne fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh innings both sides retired with blanks, and when the Chicagoes went to vatin the eighth inning @ bluer set of fellows were never seen. Wuat would they say at kome! Why, the people of the Pole Cat City would hoot them through the streets if they were beaten by this ht- tle—as they considered-—“one-horse” club, Every point of the game taken advantage of, and by dint of hard play on the:r part and one o¢ two errors on the part of the Stars, they succeeded in making six | Tung, thus giving them the lead by three peimits— the score now being Chicagoes nine, Lone Stars six. In order to redeem themselves somewhat the Chicagoes played on Thursday aftermoon the Excel- siors of the Cresent City, a junior club, composed al- most wholly of smali boys, ana beat them by a score of twenty-five to nothing. We presume the iGhicago perme Wil consider this an off¥et to the Matual-White Stocking game of last summer, when the valiant Western lads were disposed of to the tune of nine to nothing, and that, tuo, on tneir own grounds.

Why does not Mr. Haynie, the Secretary of the Na- tional Association of fase ball pla‘ ers, not allow Mr. Glenn, the chairman of the Printing Committee, to have the rules, so that he may have them printed at once? The season is now well advanced and still the clubs have no published rules to govern the game.

Most of their old nine are “vo hand” and ready for the old style of play. THE SMALLPOX IN BROOKLYN. Resistance to the Health Bonrd. Yesterday afternoon officer O'Keefe, by direction of the Board of Health, called at the house of Adam Schneider, Remsen street, near Bushwick avenue, Wuliamsburg, to remove three children, aflicted with smalipox, to the County Hospital. The officer was resistet by Schneider and two of his friends, nained Joseph Burkhardt and Edward McGinniss, and he gave up the attempt to remove the chil- dren and reported the facts to Dr. Fisk, sanitary mapector for the Fastern District, Dr. Fisk thereupon applied for assistauce to Captain Mallen, of the sixth precinct, and officers were de- tailed to peer the peace. Dr, Fisk and his men then forcibly entered Schneider's house and carr.ed off the children, and their defenders were arrested by the police and locked up in the Stagg street tion house. The people of the infected district have very natural horror of thetr offspring, while in amMiction, being taken forcibiy away from them and committed to the care of strangers. But the Health Board is resolved to stamp out the smailpex in Dutchtown. LONS ISLAND ELECTIONS. Town meetings will be held in the towns of Queens and Suffolk counties on Tuesday. A Super- visor, Town Clerk, Justice of the Peace, Asscssor, ‘Town Trustees, Constables, Overseers of the Poor, Commissioners of Highways and Inspectors of Elec- tions are to be elected in ail the towns and a Col- lector in most of them. In the towns of Suffolk county both parties make nominations and the vote Med Is generally very nearly @ strict party vote. in Queens county it Is diferent, In some of the towns, hing and Newtown especiatly, neither party make nominations ag 2 party. On account of the division the Newtown election, which has here- tofore been of a by’! excitable nature, will be com- maratively quiet.

Beard has just exnibited as the Studio Building tn Tenth street a series of acsigns for an art museum which several ef the best connoisseurs agree in pronouncing as impressive and as feasible as they are original. When the project of a Metro- politan Art Museum —a pr which now happily promises to be realizet—firat began to be talked about, Mr, Beard conceived the commendable and Patriotic idea that the building itself and its ap proaches might weil be something original, and neither mere copies nor wretched distortions of the designs for buildings devoted in Europe to similar purposes. The result of mouths of thougnt and labor ig that ne has produced four designs, which, while serving as allegorical represeutauions of art history and showing how far the artut has been successful tn attatning originality without joss of beauty, can at the same time be practically, ana without costing too much, carried into execution. A circwar which was distributed among the guests whom Mr. Beard invited to a first private view of these remarkable designs explains that, for the better understandmg of them, we are to asvtiine that the building proper stands on an elevation, such @ one as is presented in many piaces witila our Central Park or in its immediate neighborhood, The first design shows the main entrance, or portal, upon which we are presumed to come somewhat unexpectediy, amid the dense foliage round about it. This entrance 1s, asthe mouth of a cavern, overhung with trailing Piants, On either side of the entrance, guarding it, are seen gigantic figures, representing Ignorance and Superstition, tie lves of progress, Passing between them we move onward to the nt, which we see «dimly In tne distance. Here we are menaced on either hand by the forms of wild beasis, typical of the dimculties Wiich beset the path of civilization, The second design gives the literior ef ine gallery, reached through the cavernous passage. Here are seen ex- ampies of the sculplor’s work, representing the gradual growth of the urc idea, Stairways ascend irom the interior to gulleries above, in which are Placed exampies of Classical sculpture and s.atues Ol our statesmen, soldiers, oraturs-and poets—types of modern civilization, Thence we pass upwards Inve the Museum, The third design 1s that of an- other portal, resembitng in general form the one al- ready described, save Unit the threshotd is guarded by gigautic veusts, not vipeds but quadupeds. Tne Jourch and vast design is intended tu give a general view oi the building and its approaches, Mr. Beard, says, In the circular Irom whict we condense this de- scriphion, that he ls not an architect and does not presume to offer the elevation here given as either the most appropriate or most veautiful; but ue deemed It hecessary, in order to make the other de- signs more clear, to give @ general notion of his scheme, combining @ structure somewhat charac- verisuc., The buliding represented is quadrangular in torm, and surmounted by a dome, Iu this design we have again a view of the entrance, and the per- tect fewsibility Of the plan 1s made clear to us, There 480 ure Sven the other modes of approach to tue Museum—vy winding stairways of sione ascending to the terrace on wnich the building stands. We have been informed that a committee of prominent citizens Will be charged with deliberating upoa the merits of the designs, and upon the most advisable methods of entisting the public interest in them to such adegree a3 shall ensure Licir successful exe- cutiou. Whatever nay be their ultimate ate, toese designs will saiiciently atteat the boldness and power of the author's genius, Jerusalem, by Chuich. We do not know why Mr. Charcu should have first extivited lis great picture of Jerusalem at Goupil’s instead ef reserving It a8 & main attraction to the approaching exhibition at the National Academy of Design. Bui whatever may have been his motive the piccure would command public attention, wherever exhibited, 48 one of the moat important Tecent contributions to American art. It abounds both in tie striking merits and the striking faults which at once unmistakably indicate its authority. No artist but Cuurch could have combined such ex- cessive minuteness — of detail with such daz- uling general = effecta, Jerusalem aud its suburbs are almost literally mapped out before tie spectator with even faithfully conscientious Claborateness, aud yet within the wally of the eld as well a3 Noly city, a2 Impossible green refreshes the eye, While a glory of sunshine is poured forth upon it utterly regardless of the laws of light In tUculars the picture. is Hike more than one of ‘s# Works, according to his French critics, photographically or even as one of his Am Au critics has suggested, topographically true; but we doubt its general truth to any view which Mark Twain or his tellow Innocents Abroad ever enjoyed of Jerusatem from Mount Olives. Nevertheles@, itis @ superb picture and ungoestion- ably harmouizes with the ideal picture which, giori- hed by associations sacred alike to Jew and Gentile, exists tu all our minds, Retarn of the Mayflower, by Boughton. Longfellow must be fully satisfied with so truthfal an interpreter on canvas of both poetry and history as Boughton, in this noble picture, has shewn mium- selfto be. It is now on exhivition at Goupil’s Galiery, where, among other fine paiutings Intely received, we specify a “Madonna and Child,” by Professor Ittenvach, of Dasseidorf; “An Oriental Princess,’ remarkable for elegance of drapery, by Mile, Laure de Chitilon, and a epieadid “Fiower Piece,” by Jean Robie. Gustavus Frankenstein is, if we are not mistaken, the youngest of the brothers Frankenstein, whose name is identified with American art in the West.. He has passed severai months in the Vale of Chamount One of the finest and most extraordinary effects which that Valley presents is the sun rising between two great mountain peaks of the Mont Bianc chain—the Char- donnet aud the Argenti¢re—ind it can be seen only once du the summer month This phenome- non he has recorded on canvas, Ere the first ray of light touches the summit of Mont Blane the whole chain, for many miles, from the deep bottom of the valley thousands of feet upwards to me countless pinnacles in relief against the eastern sky, offers in the calm morning the tender pur- ple and gray of mountain shadow in which the snow and glaciers are dimly visible; while, beyond, that blaze of light which precedes the immediate appearance of the sun itself flashes up between two broad, coutcal peaks, filling the triaugular space of unobstructed sky with spien- dor, and by the peculiar condition of the atmos- phere the siluminating rays are carried In myriads of diverging lines far upward and laterally across the sky from every peak and pinnacle of the great mountain, Mr. Frankenstein Bas also @ choice seieciion of scenes in Wales, where the heath grows #0 luxuriantly as to cover whole mountains with its brilliant bieom, and flaming crimson spreads over the earth's surface as ras, as the autumual colors Which ciothe the furests of America. Amon, the mountains of Wales flows the Conway river, and the artist has portrayed one of its choicest scenes. A bend in the river makes It appear to start m a broad sheet from the base of the monuniain, which, in deep shade, is reflectea on the quiet water, converting it into a sheet of purple, wherein the Nowers that grow along the banks are pictured with all their richness of color. After hig return to America Mr. frankenstein de- voted the whole of last summer to studying the varied sunrise displays in Salem harbor and to its strange effects of fog and sunshine. Among these the appearances of the harbor are unuseally inter- eating at low tide, when a large part of the bed of the harbor is left bare, ana there comes into view s vast surface of rich, golden colored seaweed, which the just risen suv throws into deep, dark forms, the liveliest iridiscent hues being seen upon the povis and sheets of momture while the sunlight sparkies from the reflecting water. he paintings and sketches of this arust are now at 78 East Ninth street, In the studio of Mr. G. L. Frankenstein, author of ‘Frankenstein's Battlefelds.” We under- stand that the brothers intend soon to make @ public exhibition of their works. Reception at the Association Building. The disagreeable weather and the lack of an eleva. tor unhappily diminished the number of visitors at the artists’ reception in the Assocation Building on ‘Thursday afternoon, A masterpiece, by William Hart, “Tue Golden Horn?’ Mr. Wood’s “In the Woods,’ Mr. Swaine Giiford’s “Coast of California,” Mr. Robbins’ “Montevideo, Connecticut,” Mr. Words- worth Thompson’s unfinished “French Broad River,’ Mr. Wiles’ “Autumnal Trophies,” Mr. Tait’s “pear Hunting in the Adirondacks,” Mrs. Waters’ “Chapel Pond,” Mr. Nelson’s “St. i Lake,” Mr, Chaplin's “First Blush of Morning” and ‘Repose,’ Mr, Bispham's “Hunted Down,” with its wearted elk and niugry wolves on the icy brink of a n- western luke; Mr. Satterice’s ‘June’ and ber,” and “Oh, for the i of Mr. Marshall's “Forest Scet and «Mountain Stream,” Mr, Williams’ “Evening on the Farm ‘and “Sunset in the Mountains” and Mr. Eaten’s nu- merous portraits were among the most noticeable works on exhibition.
