KILBOURN .ENSCOPA -..CIIAPEL.

The first stone of .an P;piscopal Chapel, to be
erected at Kilbourn, was laid on Wednesday. The necessary
previous arrangements had been made with -great care. A large
tent overhung the place where the stone was- to be laid, and a
platform was erected for the accommodation tif the spectators,
and covered-with carpet. ...
The Rev. Air. DILLON, Curate of the Parish in which the
Chapel is to be built, who had been requested to attend on the
occasion, catae upon the ground about a quarter before four;
accompaniethhy the.parties immediately concerned -in the in-
teresting ceremony, all of whem were at once conducted to Thar
seats by . -Mr. Fowler, the architect. When everything was
announced to be in' readiness, Mr. Dillon rose, and-addres-
sed the large company around him. It was scarcely necessary,.
he said, to say for what purpose they were come together,
as there were probably few persons present .who did not know
that it was to lay the first. stone of an Episcopal Chapel-e-a
chapel, in which divine service-would he solemnized according
to the-doctrines .and discipline of the Church of England. l t
was a singular circumstance, that although Kilbourn might
be said to receive some little portion of historical consideration,
so early as the reign of Henry 1., and had long contained a
collected population of at ldast a thousand persons—a popula-..
tion, too, every year observably increasing—yet that no place
had ever beep erected. for exclusive appropriation to thr wor-
ship of Almighty God ; so that, hitherto, almost every one
in Kilbourn, .• Who. wished to observe the duties of religion,
was compelled- to meae•his home his only sanctuary. The
wealthier, indeed, of its inhabitants had means of going to
what place soever of public worship their views of truth might
lead. them.. But then, what was to become of the poor hard-
worked labourer-on-the day of sacred rest ?—or the industrious
mechanic—or the poor mother, unintermittingly confined to the
immediate neighbourhood of home by the cares of a young
faMily ? Their week-day life one unbroken scene of burden
and exertion, With .almost every thing to depress them to the
earth, and but little to lift their thoughts to Heaven—fet-
tered during a whole life to one place—with no facilities, like
their richer neighbours, for movirg to and fro, to hear what
might contribute to the saving of their souls. Where were
these persons to .betake themselves for spiritual instruction
And refreshment, after the weariness of a whole week's toil
and trial? To say that they could get to churches, sonic two,
some three miles distant, was to say what- never could be
done. - Now, however,. a temple of religion was begun to be
erected, for .the exclusive purpose of drawing the people of
this neighbourhood, their wives, and families, within hearing
of that gospel, which, under the influence of God's Holy Spirit,
might sanctify and-save them. It is proposed (said the Rev.
Gentleman) to call this chapel the Chapel df St., Paul, chiefly
that the excellencies of that eminent and unequalied Minister
of the everlasting gospel, may be constantly brought to the
recollection of all 'who. shall ever minister in sacred things
within these walls. -He then concluded with some further ob-
servations, in which he trusted it was not too much to hope,
that if the ministrations Of this chapel shall be invariably con-
ducted with fidelity and afrectioa—if lie who served this. altar
should expound with faithfulness and energy these truths
which accompany salvation—this little village, hitherto cut off
almost froth all connexion with religious worship, might in
due time, under the Almighty blessing, becoMe the abode of
Christian and well-ordered families. The 84th Psalm was
then read :from the Book of Common Prayer, and also the
prayers for tile King's Majesty, anti for' the clergy and people.
•After this, Mrs. Nalder, the lady.of.one of the gentlemen con-
cerned in the building, who, had kindly yielded to the request
that she would lay the stone, then descended to the spot at
one of the eastern angles of the building, where the stone was
drawn. upby a yiadlase, accompanied by the architect and
clergyman. -TV architect - then presented her with a small
White glass bottle, in which, with other coins, were put a so-
vereign, a half sovereign. a crown, a half-crown-piece, a shil-
ling, a sixpence, and some copper 'coins, all of his present
Maj esty's coinage ' • which bottle she placed in an aperture in
the stone prepared for the purpose. A plate was also let into
the stone, with an inscription, describing for what purpose, and.
by whom, the building was erected—by what name it was to
be called—when and. by whom the first stone was laid. This
plate, and the bottle containing . the .colns, were immediately
cemented in with rosin. After this, a beautiful silver trowel;
Tootle expressly for the occasion, was handed to Mrs. Nalder,
who proceeded to spread the mortar under the stone, which
was let down gradually into its place. This being done, Mrs.
Nalder applied a plumb-line and square to the stone, to see
that it was exact and. perpendicular: after which, she struck
the stone- three times with a newly made stone-mason's mallet,
and thus fulfilled her part of the interesting ceremony with
extreme ease and propriety of manner. The Rev.' Mr. Dillon
then read a prayer appropriate to the occasion of laying the first
stone of a temple of religion, and, concluded with the benedic-
don. The company,' which was extremely respectabl:), afer
examining the plan and elevation of houses intended to be
ceeeted on either side. of the chapel, and ofs crescent to be at
the western extremity overlooking a most delightful country,
then separated, apparently much gratified with the important
ceremony they had just witnessed. All the workmen employed
in the building were provided with a supper in the evening by
the liberality of Mr. Naldcr ; and every arrangement of the
day seemed to give general satisfaction.

SUICIDE.—At Lyons, on July 21, n Serjeant
Major, was intoxicated, and in that situation, threatened his
officer, was arrested and carried to the guard-house. After
sleeping for Some hours he recovered his senses, and naturally
inquired wSy he was a prisoner. On learning the cause, and
that he would most certainly be tried by a Court,martial, he
'obtained permission to withdraw into another apartment Here
1 he loaded his musket and blew out his brains.—(French Paper.)

TURAF,Y AND GRECE..

(Prom the Nuremberg Correspondent, July 21•)

FRONTIERS OF ITALY, JULY 10.

'Livadia has been again the theatre of war, and there have
been, sons obstinate combats in that'province. Three Turkish
corps, which penetrated into the country from different sides,
had gained firm footing for a time, namely, the Thessalian
corps, which came from Zeitouni through the Thermopyla ; the
corps front Negropont, ,which had penetrated by way of Bubna
to Thebes, after the Greeks had been obliged, on account of,
the superiority of the enemy, and that they might not be sur-
rounded, to abandon all Beotia and the districts between Beotia
and Thessaly ; lastly, the corps detached by Redschid Pacha
from Etolia, by way of Amruvani and Kosima, toward Le-
panto. All these numerous corps were on tAeir march to, the
Gulf of Lepanto and the Isthmus of Corinth, to penetrate into
the Morea. Omer Paella of Negropont, who should have ad-
vanced from Thebes to Salons, there to join the Thessa-
lian corps and the Albanian corpi, detached By Iledschid
Pacha, unexpectedly took another direction, which led him
away from the corps in conjunction with which he was to act.
To the astonishment of every body he took the road to Attica,
and is said really to have occupied Athens. Nobody could
account for this march, which took him away from all further
operations till poSitive information was obtained from Hydra,
through Turkish officers who were taken prisoners 'in the action
off Capo D'Oro, that the Captain Pacha had orders, instead of
landing on the east of the Morea, to effect a landing with all
his troops on board his ships of war and transports at Cape
Colonna, on.the south point of Attica, and that Omer Pacha
of Negropont had received orders, direct from Constantinople,
to march to Athens, to support the Captain Pacha in his
expedition to join the troops landed with his own, and, taking
the chief command of the whole, maid] with his army, by way
.of Megara, to the Is.liatus to occupy Corinth, to blockade the
fortress by a detached corps, and to join in the Morea. the
two other corps which by that time would have arrived there.

This plan was defeated by Sachtury's victory at Capo d'Oro,
and Owner. Pasha-remained in Attica waiting for farther orders."
Goura, who had received the chief command in Eastern
Greece, was in fact in no little embarrassment, because he
had at the beginning but few troops at his disposal,
and because the troops of Eastern Greece which were
in the Morea, and on the news of Redschid Pacha's ope-
rations were. ordered to defend their own country, had not
yet returned. His chief object therefore was to prevent the
,junction of the Theisalian corps with that detached by Red.
~chid. In this .he succeeded by occupying the passes in the
ntountains near Belizza, where the Turks were surrounded,
the greater part killed or taken, the remainder put to flight and
driven back towards the frontiers of Thessaly. As soon as this
Was effected he returned to Desphina, where his main force was
encamped,' and where the troops of Eastern Greece had in the
mean time arrived from the Morea. Hence he marched to
Eastri, where Redschid's corps sustained a complete defeat, and
Balona was recovered. No change has taken place in the state
of things in Etolia. The fortresses There are still blockaded.—
Redschid has received fresh reinforcements from Albania. In
1 the Morea discord prevails.—the Government is broken up;
Conduriotti is in Hydra ; Colocotroni had caused Prince Mau-
rocordato to be arrested, with the intention of having him
brought to trial. Ibrahim -Paella took advantage of 'these dis-
sensions, and, was advancing.
