The Rev. Thoa. Spurgeon, like the Rev. Alex. Reed, is not likely to volunteer as a chaplain for the New Zealand Soudan Contingent. In a discourse on Sunday Mr. Spurgeon referred to the Soudan business, and said there were men in the country who would not soil their hands with one day's honest hard work, who were elated at the mere prospect of going to the Soudan and of embruing their hands in the blood of their fellow-creatures. The Matron of the Old Hospital returns thanks to Miss Harrison, of Franklin-road, for the journals for the use of the inmates.
