Th? New German- Ch ?re h. many respects ls not unlike the stately Cathe? dral in Broad street which was laid In roll? by the great Are. The main ieatnre of the front ls the massive tower occupying the centre of the Iront-elevation, and containing the principal entrance and vestibule. This tower is twenty-seven feet wide at the base, and one hundred and thirty-five feet high. The corners of the tower are surmounted by foliated iron pin? nacles ten feet high, aa are also the front gables and the side and rear buttresses. In the centre of this tower, reached by brown stone steps from the marble tasselated pave? ment, ls the main entrance, a large Gothic doorway, with massive black-walnut doors. Above this, in the fa?ade of the tower, is a noble stained-glass window, thirty-eight feet high. Immediately above this ls a square face, on three sides of the tower, bearing in the centre a richly ornamented rosette, in? tended for the reception of a clock. This face ia surmounted-by an embattled parapet, and above this rises the belfry, containing on each ol the face-sideB a mullioned stained-glass window. The belfry ls finished with a pedi? ment, and has a cruciform roof, covered with copper. From this roof springs A oniCBFCTL OCTAGONAL SPIRE terminating at its lofty apex In an elaborate finial, which is surmounted In turn by an Iron rod bearing a gilded arrow. This steeple is by many feet thc highest ever erected in Charleston, and is believed to be the tallest spire sooth ot the Potomac. Ita height to the base ol the finial 1st wo hundred and forty-nine feet, and to this must be added the height of the finial, thirty-one feet, which makes the total height of the structure from the ground two hundred and eighty feet ? The design ol the remainder of the front is In harmony with the tower just described, and contains two smaller entrances, one on each side of the tower and two Gothic stained glass windows. The whole front ls sixty-six feet wide. The sides of the church are one hun? dred and forty-five feiet long, and each con tain two tien of stained glass windows and one Bide entrance about midway of tho nave. The Bides are supported by light and graceful . buttresses, terminating In foliated pinnacles, and connected by a battlemented parapet. From this parapet rises the steep-pitch rool, covered with Buckingham slate, and finished with a moulded ornamented ridge tile. The rear wall of the church ls extended to Include ? vestry room at the northwest corner, twelve by fifteen feet in interior dimensions, and the pentagonal chancel, twenty-four by fourteen feet. The material of the church ls brick, stuccoed, and blocked off In Imitation of Jer? sey stone, In alternate shades of brown and groy- I THE XACt ENTRANCE i ls through the doorway in the tower above described. Here the visitor ls ushered Into a.spacious vestibule fifteen feet square. The floor ls laid In terra cotta tiling, the walls are blocked off to simulate stone, and the ceilings Which la eighteen feet high in the centre, ls grained and marbleized. To the right , and lefc or this vestibule are stairways, leading to the galleries and organ loft. Immediately In front lathe entrance to the auditorium. The smaller entrances lo the right and left of the tower have .also lesser vestibules. These are upon a level with the pavement, the three broad steps that lead up io the church floor being inside of the vestibule, Instead of In front ol it aa In the case of the main entrance. These little vestibules are also laid with terra odtta iniagi and finished with mar^'zed celling. The interior of the church is no less a triumph of artaud skill than are Ita archi? tectural proportions as seen from the outside. The auditorium ls a parallelogram, only inter? rupted- by the recess of the chance), ninety two feet long and fifty-four feet wide, sur? rounded on three aides with galleries support? ed by graceful iron pillars, and surmounted by a lotty Gothic celling seventy-two leet high. . A partl-col?red light streams through the stain? ed glass windows, bathing in cold but har? monious colora the gray stone walls, the wal? nut orgau-case and balustrades, and diffusing a mellow glow over the handsome Brussels carpet, the upholstered pews, and especially the spacious chanceLwlth Us snow-white altar and nicely carved pulpit. THE PEWS are disposed in four rows, a double row ex? tending down on either side of the main aisle, and a single row along the walls. They are j built of wood, painted in imitation of black walnut, and furnished with silver-plated shields displaying their respective numbers. On each Bide ot the church the space from the I aide door to the western wall Is occupied with family pews, faced toward the centre of the church ano! paving seats along the sides and eastern ends. This utilizes the cornera of the church and furnishes desirable seals, where, without some such arrangement, the pews would be uncomfortable, because of the diffi? culty of seeing the preacher or hearing the discourse. The pews are one hundred and thirty-eight in number, and, with the gal? leries, will afford room for twelve or fifteen hundred people. The aisles are spacious; the centre aisle being Blx leet wide ?md those on either Bide four feet. Between the pews and . tho chancel ls left a space for the pulpit, which rans on a railroad track from Its station in front of lue central aisle to its place In the corner of the church when not In use. The pulpit ls an octagonal structure of black wal? nut, four feet wide and about eight feet high, divided Into panels, and ornamented with Gothic brackets, columns, pedestals and crockets. The chancel ls furnished with a pure white marble altar and appropriate pulpit chairs. The galleries, which extend around the north, east and south sides of the auditorium, are supported by sixteen triple clustered cast Iron columns. Rising from the eastern galle? ry ls the organ lon in the tower, containing the old organ brought up by the society from ! their late place oi worship, corner of Anson and Hasel streets. THE MOST EFFECTIVE DECORATIONS of the church are the ornamental windows, which are of stained glass, richly colored, In representation ol various Scriptural scenes and religious symbols. In tbe centre of the chancel, directly In rear of the altar, the great window is occupied with a floe painting of the Crucifixion, with the Tree of Life extend? ing upward from behind the scene of mortal' agony, and extending its branches above. To the right and left of this scene are four other windows, in which are de? picted lull length figures ol' Hie four Evange? lists, St. Matthew, St. Maik, St. Luke and St. John, in the order named. * The windows iu the south side of the chucb, above the gal? lery, are decorated with symbol?, the whole forming an allegory of humau life. In the flret window is au "Hour gladi," typifying the flight of time which leads to the "Batismal font" depicted in the second wiudow. Next the "Grace of God" is represended by ihree fishes and the "Wine of nouilihment,"symbol lzed by a wine cup. in the next window ls the "All-seeing Eye" which watches over the pilgrim of life until he achieves the "Cro wn of glory," next depicted, aad arrives at the "Heavenly rest," depicted by a star. ANOTHER GROUP OF SYMBOLS. On tbe opposite side of the church the win? dows are also occupied with symbolical de? signs. The first is the Holy Bible, next is the. Cross o? Christ; then come, In the- order named, the Lamb o? God, the triangle and trefoil, typifying the Trial ty; the pelican feed? ing its young, the Anchor of Hope, and the crown of thorns a jd three nails, representing the Crucifixion. In two of the windows under the galleries-thc two nearest the chancel on either side of the church-are displayed life size medallions of Helanctbon and Luther re? spectively. The remainder ol the space in these and the upper windows is filled in with various ecclesiastical patterns, of which the crown, the trefoil, the cross, and the mono? gram L H. S., are the most frequently re? peated. * A History and an Invocation. The following verses, written by an anony? mous Cbarlestonlan and published sometime ago In the Lutheran Visitor, are. reproduced as appropriate to this occasion and possess an added interest in view of the successful completion of the work to which they refer: TH S OLD AND TUB HEW GERMAS LUTHERAN CHITOCH IN CHAKLK-JTON, 8. 0.

The New Tork Herald prints letters from a correspondent, who says that be bas spent some days with the Lowery outlaws of Robe? son County, North Carolina. One of these letters gives the following account of the death of Henry Berry Lowery, the leader of the gang: Between February 13 and 1G, in company with Boss Strong, Heury B Try Lowery was ranging ihe country In tbe neighborhood of Moss Neck, in searcn of some persons whom be bad been Informed were hunting him.

It was not then oc? cupied, and Henry Berry, believing lt had been recently made by one of his pursuers, who would shortly return n it. ensconced himself in lt, while Boss made a blind ipr him? self a short distance off, covering the road. But a lew minutes after they bad placed them? selves in their respective positions the report of a gun was heard from Henry's biding place, and when BOB?, who waited to (tear a word :rom hie chief or an answering shot from an enemy, cautiously approached the spot, Henry Berry Lowery lay on his back, wltn one bar? rel of bis shot-gun discharged, and his nose, forehead and the whole front of his head blown off.
