THE DEDICATION OF !" THE CEN
TRIAL PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH."
VIZ ACJJNHT0N

TRIAL PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH,
WASHINGTON.
The dedication of this chaste and beau
tiful building took place on last Sabbath
morning, in the presence of large and
deeply interested audience, among whom
were the President Of the United States, the
Mayor of this city, the Hon Mr.. Dunlap,
Of Maine, the Hon. Mr.. Collamer, of Yer
mont, the Hon. Mr.. Yost, Of Pennsylva-
MIA, and other distinguished citizens and
strangers. The edifce stands on 9Th street,
Immediately in rear of the Patent Office, on
the site generously given about year since
by the late General Van Ness. Its dimen-
sions are fifty by seventy feet, and its neat
and unpretending architecture reflects the
highest credit on the taste and judgment of
it's enterprising and generous protector, Mr..
C. L. Coltman, and on the skill and liber-
atty of the artisans who were employed in
its erection. So many of our worthy me-
chanics and other citizens have aided to a
greater or less extent towards the erection
of this edifce that it would be impractical
BILE in notice of this kind to mention all
who have generously contributed of their
labor and means. Their names, however,
are registered upon the memory of the
heart" J" and will be long and gratefully cher
ished by the pastor and members of this
infant congregation. We cannot, however,
withhold the need Of deserved praise from
our worthy feIlow-citizen, Mr.. Jas. Philips,
plasterer, to whose skill and liberality the
edifce is largely indebted for the chaste
and elegant workmanship with which its
interior is enriched and beautifed. 1t is
due to him to say that this portion of the
building is the subject of universal admira-
ton The venitian blinds, made by Mr..
Noel, of this city, both by their neatness
and excellent quality, are in good keeping
with the internal finish Of the church, and
reflect credit upon the mechanical skill Of
that worthy citizen. Nor should we omit
10 mention the name Of Mr.. Reese, the up
bolstorer, who, without any charge, has ad-
ded much to the beauty of the pulpit and
to the comfort of the minister who occupies
i. We trust he will be rewarded by at
least share Of the patronage Of the con.
pregation. The pulpit, planned by Mr.. J.
G. Harkness, and executed by Messrs
Donovan s. Gerhess, is chaste and appro-
pirate
The dedication sermon was preached by
the Rev. Thomas B. Balch, of Virginia
from Genesis, 28th chapter and 18th verse
g How dreadful is this place this is non.
other but the house of God, and this is III,
oate of Heapen." The discourse was rich
eloquent, and appropriate, and was listened
to with marked attention. We are gratifie.
TO learn that the Session Of the church hav,
requested copy for publication. In th'
, afternoon the communion was administers
. to large number of professors Of religion
from the different evangelical churches il
