NNW MINBILEA FOR THE kiii-LIE—H CHHICH UNION.

Bank, proposed by Mr. C. W. Wyndham, one of the
Church Governors, and seconded by the Hon. and
Rev. A. G. Duglas ; Mr. James P. T. Holmes-Orr,
High-street, proposed by Mr. H. Uott, seconded by
Mr. C. W. Wyndham. We believe the latter candi-
date and his pc-poser are connected with Queen
Klizabeth's grammar school.
CHURCH HOORATIONM.—The grand old Minster was
most elaborately decorated on Christmas Day, and
was greatly admired by all who saw it. The edifice is
one, the peculiar structure of which renders effective
decoration difficult, but all difficulties were overcome,
and the festive garb in which pillars, gas standards,
choir stalls, chancel arches, font, lectern, and altar
appeared on Saturday last reflected great credit on the
ladies by tryiom the work wadi carried out.
