THE NEW WESLEYAN CHAPEL.
LATINO or Sill 111X011.1,11, ITOPIEL
The cereinouy of laying the memorial stones of the now
Wesleyan COspel. which ia being erected la High-street,
wee performed on Thursday al ternoon. when the weather
wss all that could be desired. A large and beindecdnis
"'eh 'Pinned the "rest oePasito Chapel-lane, and the
scoff doing of the new structure was tastefully festooned.
Toe balding la Icing erected from plans prepared by
Kr. C. 11.11, architect. of Loudon, &ea the contractor is
Mr. & Clarke, balder, of Parket...nes The chapel is
designed in the early decorated Gothic style and will seat
950 persons, and it is faced with Swamis. and Both stone.
The front to the High-street conalite of • lofty main'
gable, in which are two large three-:lslit traceried windows,
with stoles conies forming a canopy above them. and
In the apex of the gable it a circular rose window,
the whole surmounted by • carved stone finial. At
the angle is an octagonal turrrot, carrying a spire Wont
90 feet high, placed to einphasise one of the main entrances
to the shawl and galleries, the other beiog similar on the
other side. The side elevation to Chl-lane will be
taken up the transepts which have three gables, in which
are large tracened %ludas.. The chapel is in plan a kind
of Maltese cross, the square shape of it necessitating •
nave and wide transepts, the arcades of which will have
two arches supported by polished shaft granite columns
with carvel capitala and War of stone. The nave is 42
feet wide and roofed by a hammer beamed roof with
boarded ceiling. All the rata will be of pitch pine. awl
made to decline towards the pulpit, which the shape
of the place readily penults of with advantage
In every respect There will be a shallow chancel
for the communion, before which will be the pulpit
No placed as not to hide it. The arch over will
be richly moulded and with polished granite shafts, The
gallery will form almost an octagon, and Li reached by two
wide anl roomy staircases, entered by the same vestibule
givihg access to the body of the chap-1. It will boot a
vas, effective !riga, an! will rather add to than detract
from the appearance of the chassil. Arrangements are
made to allow of access to tho chapel from the present
old one, which may be used as a school. There is a
Wasters' vestry in the rear will' heating chamber below-
Tbe entire cost of the chapel is estimated at .16,000. The
service on the site commenced at half-put two o'clock,
Autry before wiith time the lion. Evelyn Ashley and
Lady Edith Ashley arrived. A large number of persona
were porta and considerable cUsappointment was
felt at the absence of three out of the four ladies
who had promised to lay Ike memorial stones
Lay Corn. Ira Guest telegraphed from Paris that she was
unable to attend, and hoe place was tak in by Mrs. F.
Styring. of Poole House, Lady Cokohoun was also
airs: on the Continout hut she sent a request that Miss
Wesley, daughter of the Rev. Samuel Wesley, superio-
tendeut of the circuit, should act as her proxy. Mra
Balaton, the Mayoral, was likewise prevented from
attending, and her place was taken by Ml. Balaton. The
service commenced by the &incites of the hymn, " Theis
stones to nee in faith we lay; to Thee this temple, Lord,
we build." Psalm cxxil. was then read by the Rev, J.
Fairlsoures, after which the Roo Levi Waterhouse offered
prayer. The Rev. Samuel Warr, the resident minister,
then made a short speech. He said they were assembled
that afternoon to witness the laying of the memorial
stones of a new Wesleyan Chapel. Daring the last
quarter of • century they had needed a much more com-
modious place of worship and a much larger schoolroom.
and for avant of this the ruse in Poole had been nearly
stationary during the lens period he had named. That
want was now about to be supplied. The old chapel in
which they had for so many years worshipped had ren-
dered good genii* and many memories clustered around
It, but it wee now to be superseded by another and fat
superior place of worship. —The Rev. Levi Waterhouse,
chairman of the Portsmouth District. in presenting •
silver trowel to the lion. Mrs. Evelyn Ashley, said it was
exceedingly gratifying to him to have the honour and
pleasure a Mrs. Ashley's company on the pension, and
not less so became she was accompanied to that ancient
town by her honourable husband.— The first stone was
then laid by the lion. Mrs. Ashley, after which the lion.
Evelyn Ashley was asked to address the assembly. lie
sold he did not expect to be called upon to speak. but, as
he had been asked to say • few words, he would say that
It was an exceeding great pleasure to a man who was
mixed up a great deal in party strife to be able to assist
on an oration of this sort, where there wee no party lxkt
the pail of the gospel, and where then wee no faction, 1
but • rivalry te erect a temple worthy of the God they
all worshipped. lie congratulated them on the site which
they had obtained, and hoped in future years to be able
to congratulate them on the congregation that would
swarm within the walla of their chapel, and on • faithful
ministry.—The Rev. J. Ingram, of Bournemouth, than
handed a silver trowel to Mir Ralston, who laid the
seemed stone, after which the Rev. J. Wesley expressed
the remora he felt at seeing the Mayor present.—Mr.
Balaton said he did not need a word of thanks upon that
rear n ; he claimed the name of Christian, and he knew
of no Christian who could stand outside when the name
of Wesley ICU mentionod.—The third stone was laid by
Mr. Wring, who was presented with a silver trowel
by the Rev. Samuel Wealey.—Alderman F. Styring
then briefly addreued the assembly, and, speaking in the
name of the trusties, said that in constructing the build-
ing, the memorial stones of which were laid that af tar'
nose, they sought to erect cc moinically • building that
would be comfortable, and that would be an ornament to
the town; he hoped they would receive hearty support
from the inhabitants generally, so that the project might
he carried out sucousfully.—The Roy. F. Soper, of
Taunton, presented • silver trowel to Miss Wesley, who
laid the fourth stone on behalf of Lady Colquhoutt—Tbse
Rev. J. Jackson Wray then delivered • long address, in

reliable figure' that at the present time there are no lees
than 16,009,00) of Methodists in the world and looking at
the many milli ins who had been connected with them, he
made bold to say—and be had not a grain of bigotry in
his constitution—that among no other community would
they find More uprightness, patriotism, and all of that
which went to uphold • nation and the maws around
shoal. Be said, therefore, that they had earned their
right to be eansidered an important factor of the gospel
elements which had worked for the uplifting of the
snares of this country, and he said, moreover, that Eng-
land could not do without them. Their operations ex-
tended from their centre, in the City-rood, London, to the
furthest corner of the world, and there was no religious
system at the present day that was exerting a wider in-
tim:nee. In conclusion he said their esteemed member
for the borough had said they were on a platform where
there were no politics; this was true, and be might
remark that • grander al Conservative than the Ex-
President of the Conforeoce could not be found in a day's
march. The President, however, was a strong Liberal,
but the two were brethren beloved, and they worked
well together, and they might depend upon it both alike
were highly esteemed. There was room in their churches
for all political parties, and the result of their meeting
together was to rob off angles and bring them into fellow-
ship with one another. Mr. Wray then expressed his
hope that the enterprise then undertaken would be
successful, and concluded his address by saying that every-
body's speech ought to have an application and •
Hisapplic ,tion was that the collection thoul !woo be made,
