1E Society expends no Capital for an uncertain return;
it accumulates property yet incurs no ; it has no
speculative character, but employs the combined powers and
united interests of many Capitalists in the purchase of sound
securities, a hich, however advantageous, would be too great in
amount or too distant in time for any single purchaser prudently
to attempt to make his own.
Prospectus, describing the mode of obtaining Shares, and
detailing the objects and advantages of the Company, may he
obtained from any of the Agents, or by Letter (post-paid) to the
Secretary in London.
The Directors are already fully prepared to complete the
purchase of any approved Properties of the nature described in
their Prospectus, and will immediately attend to the Proposals
addressed to them. By order,

ITHE Trustees of the above intet Episcopal Church
respectfully solicit the attention o c Christian Public to
the following brief statement:—
Harold's Cross, a village adjoining the liberties of Dublin,
is surrounded by a thickly-inhabited district withont any Pro-
testant Place of Worship, although there is a numerous popula-
tion nominally Protestant. " Through the blessing of God,
whose is the silver and the gold," the suns of £l,BOO has been
already subscribed, and it is pleasing to observe that a large
proportion of this has been contributed by the poorer brethren
in weekly subscriptions of one penny and upwards, collected
among themselves. £2,500 will be required for the erection of
the Church and School Booms, besides £1,001) for the Endow-
ment, agreeable to the provisions of the Act of 11 and 12 Geo.
The Building is considerably advanced, and will, it is
hoped, be ready for public worship on next Christmas Day.
The Church will be capable of seating 1,000 persons, and the
School-rooms in the basement story will afford accommodation
for 400 Children, including an Infant School, besides Apart-
ments for Teachers. The moral degradation of this populous
district, and the utter exclusion of a large Protestant population
from the pure light of the Gospel, call loudly on the Friends of
Truth to assist in this blessed work. The appointment of the
Chaplain is vested in the Trustees, and the permanent continu-
ance of the Gospel for this Church is fully secured.
In submitting these facts, the Trustees beg to state that the
only means of raising the required Sum is through the Christian
liberality of such as know and value the privileges of the Gospel,
as the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for Ireland cannot render
any assistance, not being authorized by the provisions of the
Church Temporalities Act to aid the building of additional church-
es until they shall be in possession of a surplus income; but, so
far Rota having a surplus, they are in debt to a large unionist
in order to keep in repair the Churches already raised. In the
language of Divid to Solomon would the Trustees earnestly
address their Friends, " Now set your heart and your soul to
seek the Lord your God; arise, therefore, and build you the
Sanctuary of the Lord God."
The Rev. J. D. Hastings and the Rev. T. Kingston, two of
the Trustees, have come to lay these facts before their Brethren
in this country, and to solicit their kind support iu behalf of this
Work of tho Lord.
