American Rejoicings In Paris

The Paris correspondent of the New York Herald wriïes: Being, lilvo uil ihe correspondentes of the Herald, in all parts of the vvorld, a supporter of the "Mated preaehing of the Gospel,'1 accordingto my uanal custorn, I i'ound myself on Sunday lust at the American chuptl in the rue de Ber. ri. Jnst buf'ore the cominencement of the service a young frtaa enterecl, a 1 1 J , proceediug to the lew of the American Minister, tumded a p.'iper to My. Uavlon. The lutter eygerly and hn.süly red it, nnd whisperud to llcv. Henry Ward Beecher, who as titting next to him. Thiit gentleman cppied the dispalch on a piece of paper and 8ent it up to the pulpit, and in a moment the gmfel of oooij news was whixpered round the house that "Vicksburg wns ours ! " and a low buzzing rnurmur and a general smüe of joy upon the faces of the audience snowed how the rewsaöected them. I greatly fear that lit le attention was paid to the sermón that morning; íor cverybody vnis aDX ibus for the service to be over, that they might exchange congratulut0n3 on the glorióus néws. When it was at lcngth íiíiished and' the congregaron Had galhered n the vestibule of the chnpel, aud on the sidewalk in .front of it, there was a general shuking of hands and a general exchange of joyoüh'words. The ladies (God bless them) - and between onrselvea. we can ee a bet ter eolleetion ol handsome wo mén at the American éhapel on Sunday ;han in any othei gathering of this sizé n Paris, althongh I would not for the world have you think that is the reason why ynur correspondent is so regular n nis attendance there - were partíannrly enthusiastic. A strugglefor raas:ery between s'miles and-jnyful tears wás evidently in prcigresáion the fine [ace of Miss Dayton, the daughter of the Amei'it'.aTi Minister, and the countsnanee of the American Cónsul's lady was faiily illuminated. Frorn there ï p'foceédei té' tÜö Grand Hotel, wher'e the necessionists "most do congrégale," arid where there was an entirely different sort of scene.The usual gathering as ttíere; but they loóked subdued and melancholy. Noihing had come but the' sim1 pié statement that Vicksburg had surrendered, but this was enough for them. At first they professed not to believe it, and Mr. Slidell, soon arrmng among them, attempled to pour oil upon tho wounded spirits of the mourners by assuring them that the news could not be true. Later in the day, however, they seemed to have arrived at the conclusión that it was true, and remained gloomy and quiet duringthe whole day. As hasfrequently been the case vvhen any news favorable to our side has reached England, tho full dispatch was kept back for twenty-four hours, and (lid not reach us until yesterday mornThe opposition journals say but iittle about it; but you may depend upon it the news will seriously interfere with tho hopes of the scessionists that the Freneh governnient wrH at present do anything in their behalf.
