LONDON CHURCHES.--It is alleged that extensive,
changes are in contemplation as regards the parishes of
the City of London, the churches being found to exceed
the wants of the inhabitants :—" Out of forty-nine
churches, having an aggregate income of £29,000, twenty
nine are to be removed and twenty retained. In every
parish, the population of which exceeds 1,000, a stipend
of £l5O is to be assigned, and £125 for every 100 addi-
tional parishioners. This would give for the twenty
churches to be retained an income of about £11,350'
leaving for the t wenty-nine churches to be removed 0
sum of about £9,650, or £230 per church per annum:
and to make up this to from £5OO to £7OO, means are to
be raised in the new locality to which the church is to be
removed. The patronage to follow the churches which„
are left standing, and the patrons of the removed churches
to appoint to the new churches."
