ST. BARNABAS' CHURCH SCHOOLS

AT the QUARTERLY MEETING of the LIVER-
POOL CHURCH OF ENGLAND SCHOOL

COMMITTEE, held in the Blue Coat School, on MON-
DAY, Juue 26th. 1843,
The Rev. Rector CAMPBELL in the Chair,
A Statement to the following effect was read by the Rev.
THOMAS NOLAN, Minister of St. Barnabas' Church and
District :
" With a view to bring the condition of St. Barnabas'
district under the favorable consideration of the Liverpool
Church of England School Committee, I caused a census
to be made of the district legally assigned to the Church,
with reference to the number of children contained in it,
specifying also, the number that receive no sort of educa-
tion.

" It may be well to remark, that St. Barnabas' district
is included within Parliament-street, Bridgewater-street,
St. James'-street, and the river : and that the census was
taken during the last two months. The result, according
to the details now before me, gives a total in round num-
bers of 2,915, out of which there are 1.821 receiving no
education, leaving a remnant of but 1,094 under any in-
struction. No person acquainted with the locality, and
aware of the difficulties in the way of an unauthorised en-
quirer, will consider this statement exaggerated. Yet
this is not the entire of the evil that we hope to mitigate
by the establishment of schools in connexion with our
church. St. Barnabas' Church, standing, as it does, on
the very southern boundary of the district, is frequented
by ninny of the humbler population from the adjoining
district of Toxteth-park. The same doubtless would be
the case with their children, had we schools open to re-
ceive them : and though I did not feel justified in making
inquiry then. it is certain the population is as dense, and
the opportunities of instruction as limited, as we have as-
certained them to be, in the district particularly belonging
to us.

" Such is our case, thus briefly and plainly stated. On
this, we make our appeal to the Liverpool Church of
England School Committee, and after that, through them,
to the public generally of this great town. I say to the
public generally, for our case is one, in respect of what I
am about to mention, that presents a difficulty peculiarly
its own. While the population of the district itself is of
the poorest and lowest class, and the congregation wor-
shipping in our church is by no means of a wealthy cha-
racter, the value of land in the neighbourhood, from its
proximity to the docks, is on the very highest scale of
land

hp
er i
church,e to r of toh large

the side timber-
nboif e-
the
river, has kindly made us the offer of a portion of ground
at a price which, though considerable in itself, we know
to be £1 per yard less than the selling price of the sur-
rounding land. For many reasons, we (meaning the church-
wardens and other members of the congregation who have
kindly co-operated with us thus far) have determined on
this lot of ground as the most desirable site for St.
Barnabas' Daily and Sunday Schools.' Ist. Its imme-
diate proximity to the church, by reason of which a
smaller quantity of land will suffice (some of our own
land becoming thus available) than must needs be required
elsewhere. 2d. By the erection of a school on the pro-
posed site, the church will be completly bounded on all
sides, and secured against the conting,.ncy of any possible
future annoyance.
" Before making our appeal to this Committee and the
public of Liverpool, we have made a considerable effort
ourselves. The Revds. the Senior Rector of Liverpool
and Mr. M`Neile kindly advocated this cause from the
pulpit of St. Barnabas', last February : the result was
£5O and upwards from both collections. This beginning
has been followed up, until at present our subscription-
list amounts to (say) £330, and is still going forward :
but it is only right to add, that, at present, much more
cannot he expected from our congregation ; so that our
eventual success in the accomplishment of this most de-
sirable object is dependent on our being taken up by this
Committee, and, on their recommendation, by the public
of the town generally ; as well as by the National Society
and her Majesty's Committee of the Privy Council. We
only ask to have our Schools built : we are ready to un-
dertake, with Divine blessing, the support of them our-
selves.
" We appeal especially to those benevolent individuals,
