Aral. SAMS'S MAZGAZIT-21TILKIT. —lt is stated
that the clergy of All Saints% Mareseret-street, have mom
to be dimatisfied with the arrangements in that church, and
have declared that some alteration must take place if the
full choral services are to be cootinued, the present over-
crowding of the beautiful edifice keeping away all its
original supporters. This is an evil that, in speaking
of the meeting at Sheffield, we warned the ad-
vocates of free and entirely unappropriated sittings
they would have to meet. We hardly • anticipated
so speedy an illustration of our warning. In a sermon
ea Sunday week, the Rev. W. Upton Richards said,
"After five years ex 'once of • free church, I am ooe-
steeeg ggegogi a this church, it is not eels a failures
bat • very great evil I do not know mamma* thirty of
this congregatioa ; all are entire strangers to me. The
old roogropation, whom liberality to AU Sainte'
Red to the poor of this district was overeowieg,
have been driven away, en they are unable to contend with
the crowd who sow gather around the gates, and wham rush
into church reminds me (I say it with shame) of the rash
into the pit of a theatre. It is impossible that this stake of
things can cautious much longer. I moss, with the advice
of the bishop, ohmage in a great resseere either the alialaseer
of the church or the eerviose. I mesa, either the chairs
mint be appropriated to obviate the umesealy rush, or I
must sot make the services so attractive—i. e., forego the
choral service, part with the choristers and the clergy, sad
single-handed with the help of friends give such services se
my health will seeable me. As regards myself, I ewe not
mach whether the service is choral or not— whether the hod
vessels be of gold and jewelled, or of the commonest
My only wish is that we should give God our bogs and then
we may hope for the commendation, 'They have dose what
they could.' "—Guardian.
