FILNCT BAZLAIL—it will be in the recollection of our
readers that during the five years the Rev. H.
Rawlingo°, M.A. has been the Rector of Synionde•
bury, he has undertaken and completed two important
worke of church extensfue, namaly, the huildhs, of two
new churches at distant poiuts of his large parish. St.
Peter's, Eype, is a beautiful example of Early Erglish
architecture, and its interior arrangements exhibit a
plowing Matsu* of the via media in decoration: for
while there is not coldness and deformity, there is an
equal absence of tinsel and ornate display. The little
church at Broadoak is a commodious structure, meeting
a want long felt in that hamlet. The expense of erect-
ing these churches was necessarily considerable, but by
the rtrennous and self-denying exertions of the Rector
an I his family a very large sum was raised. so that the
deficit was not more than two or three hundred pounds.
This, however, was felt to be an unsatisfactory state
of things, even for a short time, sod preparations were
made for holding a bazaar, with a view to the liquida-
tion of the debt. Assistance in the good work was
liberally rendered by lathes and gentlemen of the
neighbourhood, and the result was that on Wednes-
day last, when the bazaar was opened, there was • rich
and attnuitive display of all the usual articles seen at
such gatherings, and, in addition, products of nature or
art from the sister isle, from almost every country in
Europe, from the Holy Land, from America. and also
from China, Japan, and our Indian empire. The bazaar
was held on the Rectory lawn, a delightful spot for
I such". purpose, fraught with the memory of previous
efforts for charitable purposes. There were six taste-
fully arranged stalls, and the ladies who gracefully
officiated as amateur shopkeepers for the occasion were,
Mrs. Gundry and Mrs. Still, Mrs. Rawlinson and bliss
Meddle, Miss Florence Oundry and Miss Chowne, Mrs.
Loggin and Miss Stone, the Mimes Rawlinson
and the Hisses Legg, Miss Rawlinson and Miss
Housman. There was a fair attendance on the
first day, including—Mr. T. A. Mitchell, M.P., Mr. J.
Gundry, Mr. B. P. laundry, Mr. E C. Gundrg, Mrs. J.

substantial stuu has been raised towards clearing off
the debt.
