ALL-SAINTS' CHURCH, GREAT NELSON-STREET
NoEtTEL—On Sunday last, two eloquent sermons were
preached in the above church, in aid of the church-
wardens' expenses: that in the morning. by the Rev.
David James, M.A., of St. Mary's, Kirkdale, from
2nd Samuel vi. 1. 2. " Again, David gathered

ne aanitional sum of £l6 13s. 4d. was collected,
making a total of £29 9s. 7d. There was a full attend-
ance on the morning service ; and in the evening, the
church was crowded to excess, every avenue and aisle
where standing-room could be obtained being closely
packed with attentive hearers, while hundreds, unable to
get near the entrances, were obliged to return disap-
pointed. A greater testimony than this can scarcely be
conceived of the high estimation in which the labours of
this faithful and eloquent preacher, continued with un-
abated zeal through a series of years in this town, are
still held by those who were privileged to hear the Gospel
from his lips. Though such an exciting scene has never
before been witnessed in this church since its erection in
1848, it will be gratifying to those who contributed to
raise the funds, and who are still aiding in the completion
of the work so charitably begun, by the building of schools
in immediate connection, that their efforts have not been
in vain ; as the influence of the church is now beginning
to be felt in all parts of the district, and the poor crowd
to it every Lord's day to take possession of the excellent
accommodation provided for them.

SELECT VESTRY.—On Tuesday, at the fortnightly
meeting of this board, the Rev. Rector Campbell presided.
A conversation took place in reference to the appointment
of a legri adviser to the parish. It was stated that, for
want of one, a large arrear of removal cases had accumu-
lated.—Mr. Brown, the Government inspector of schools,
visiting the parochial schools on the 30th instant.
vere reported to be 2,109 inmates in the Workhouse
13th instant; 609 being sick cases-90 of fever, and
tch.—The total admissions to the vagrant sheds,
during the week, had been 789.—Mr. and Mrs. Lodge
were elected superintendent' and matron of the vagrant
sheds.—lt appeared that a motion had been made in the
schools committee, but lost, for the appointment of a sub-
committee to inquire into the original religious faith of
certain of the boys of the Industrial School. Mr. Fair-
hurst stated that the motion was his ; and that it had been
opposed by Mr. Mellor, who ought rather to have courted

it, if he could have substantiated the statements he made at
the last meeting. He bad a list of 14 children born Roman
Catholics who were being brought up in the schools as
Roman Catholics. Mr. Mellor said the children in two of
the cases he had mentioned last week were baptised at St.
Thomas's Church ; they were christened in the name of
Morrison, but that had been changed into Murphy, to
make them look like Roman Catholics. (Roars of laugh-
ter.)—The Ven. Archdeacon Brooks thought further in-
quiry would produce religious discord in the establishment;
but, on the motion of Mr. Fairhurst, the matter was re-
ferred back to the schools committee.—A letter from the
Poor-law Board to the medical officers was read, assuring

them that the Vestry, without their sanction, had the
power of determining their engagements. The special
committee appointed by the Select Vestry on the 7th of
September last, to consider and report on the system
under which the valuation of property for the purposes of
the poor-rate is now carried on, submitted their report,
recommending the appointment of a permanent surveyor
at a salary of £4OO per annum.—Discussion on the report
was deferred till the neat meeting.—A letter was read
from the Poor-law Board, in reference to pauper emigra.

o Australia, recommending the Vestry to make ap-
ion to the Colonial Land and Emigration Commis-
rho board said they observed (in the list of eli-
-ho had been submitted to them) that there
