When an addition is made toil • wall only will have
to be pulled down. The situation for the new church
could not have been better chore, facing as it dote the
railway stator, and abutting on two streets, Ring-
stoat and Perk-drool, the centre of a large ludoettial
population.
- The new church will be a subttantial Oothio structure
from the designs of Mr. Ewan I:bristles, of London, Mr.
Thomas Dodson, of Weymouth, being the builder. The
church is berg built of Portland stone in random courses,
with dressings of Doulting stone. The interior, lined with
red bricks, haring courses of grey bands running round
the walls end arras, further relieved by projesting bands
of grey bricks: • tower will be prepared for • peal of
bells—an adornment In which the existing @berthas of
Weymouth are deficient. A foundation of concrete
over the whole area of the church ham been Mid six feet
deep, and the tower strengthened by 3,600 polve, eight
fret in length, driven under the concrete. The main
arsine are supported by Portland stone pillars, with
shafts of Pennant stone. The columns for the choral
arch will be of Devon marble. There is to be nothing
gaudy about the church; but everything neat and
good. At present sitting accommodation will be pro-
vided by rows of chairs. The presentation of the new

appointed for a solemn insugurative reticle. The
weather was all that could be desired, and both the
arrangements and their carrying out were in the
highest degree treesidul. The Earl of Shtftesbury,
as one of the leading members of the Evangelical party,
fitly took • prominent part; Dean Close, in an
admirable sermon insisted on the Divine ordinance of
prima itig as the means for the conversion of the world;
the service at the new church was es unceremonious as
Gould be, everything that savoured of reerdotalisni or
ritualism brag ri,itdly excluded. There was no pro-
ousion of surpliced clergy with banners and musk ;
all the Ministers present save the Rector and his two
orates being there in their lay habilimenta. The lay-
ing of the stone wee the only formality, but it wee
dome as unpretentiously as possible, and was unaocom-
Lby any words of in VOOlOOO. No ritual wits followed, uttly • couple of hymns sung, and no extempore

The Earl of Shaftesbury, berg the Lord-Lleatenant
of the county, was received st the railway station with
befitting dignity. The sth D,R.V, under Lent

alighting from the railway carriage. The train arrived
about • quarter to one, when the noble earl yr met by
the Rev. T. Groom, with the secretaries of the church
sommittse (Mr. W. B. Barrett and Mr. J. Milledge,)
and Mr. W. Talbot. The ride bead played the
National Anthem, his lordship meanwhile standing with
head uncovered, and the corps gave the taints. After
expressing to Lieut. Ardent hie gratifieetion at the
unexpected honour, his lordship went off in the Rector's

o'clock in the shernooe, when there was • large eon-

course the time at which it eras held would prevent
the working classes from being present in any own-

God, that I will send a famine li, the laud, rot • famine

see, and from the north even to the east; they shall
ran t• and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and
shall not lad It." The preacher said he proposed to
examine and illustrate the eaters of this julgment
against God's people, and ia the latter part of his die-
sours@ to enquire whether there were any signs of our

gauntry are plsosd which would Justify ue in ocuodiag
the trumpet of alarm, and urging all men to owlet-ow
whether God might not utter the same judgment on us
and remove from amongst um the Word 011 the Lord.
In the outset be remarked on the nature of the bless-
ing threatened to be removed. It was "the hearing of
the word of the Lord," that word of which Christ him-
self said "Max shall not live by breed alone, but by
every word that proosedeth out of the moeth of the
Lard shall min live." As the bodily life was supported
by bread, so minim' life was fostered by the word of
the Lord. Men quibbled about the nature and extent
of the lospindlon of the Bible, but where elm were
they to find "every word that proosedeth out of the
mouth of ths Lord r The Bible wee that record, from
the first words God make, myth' "Let there be light"
to the last of the New Testament. Teey were wntten
by inspired and Infallible reporters. The preacher pro.
seeded to point out that from the time when Mow and
Aaron were ordained. His ministers, as described In the
lith chapter of Exodus, whenever God bad • message to
imsamunioate to man be prepared • mouth to speak it,
arid put His words Into that mouth. This was the case
with the prophets, and sews, and holy men of old.
They spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
In the gospel dispensaUou they had the institution of
the word, and the New Testament was the record of
what Christ said daring hie three years' ministry, and
His laid wimenand was go Into all the world and preach
the gospel, he that belleveth and is baptised shall be
saved, and he that belleveth not shall be damned. The
words that proceeded out of the mouth of the Lord
were committed by God to His thumb and people, as the
Divine ordinance to the end of time for the oonvereion of
men and for their edification. He then illustrated
the ruinous cansequence of the withdrawal of this
Living word of the Lord from among the nations, for
there loevitably followed darkome and rupentltioo.
For 1,600 years, from Adam to Noah, there were no
public utterances of God's word or tram of religious
ordinances. The world, rioneequently, became abut.
cloned and depraved, and there tame an nolvenal de/uge.
Than for 500 years, from Noah to Abraham, GA never
spoke again, and idolatry was spread over the world,
God, however, appeared to and convened with Abra-
ham, Liam and Jacob. His communiestions with
them three patriarchs having ceased, the world mask in

gradually there came. famine. At the opening of the

Then there followed • thousand years of eupentltion,
