! PROTESTANT EPIsCoPAL CATHEDRAL IN
New YoRK CITY.-A writer in the New
York Courier and Enquirer, makes in clo-
quent appeal to the friends of the Episcopal
church in favor Of the erection Of a cathedral
in the city of New York, on a large and mag
nifcient scale, which shall stand as a noble
and sublime monument among future gene
rations and testimony Of the zeal of the
church The church is represented as now
strong and influential, and possessed Of sutii-
cient wealth and numbers to erect temple,
that shall be the glory of coming ages. The
writer goes on to say
New York should have her cathedral with
its lofty spires, to greet the citizens eye on
| his return from travel; an object to which he
could turn with reverence in this land of con
slant change and turmoil, and be sure at
any time to find free admittance within its
sacred walls; to render thanks for his safe ar
rival 1t should be building worthy ofthe
cause and the city, The prominence of the
structure should be such as would give char
acter to the view the city is approached :;
its walls should be so reared that it might
stand as testimony of the faith and zeal of
the present generation, to those which will
succeed; and its towers 50 elevated that shad
ows of the blessed emblem of our faith on
its highest pinnacle might be flung around.
GAS goes the sunlight to the West,
Or rides the moon on High"
The bulldog should also be capacious
that all that would might enter. Its doors
to be open daily for prayers, and weekly for
the full choral service. The magnificent
temple of Solomon was built by Gods espe-
cial command, and as we know that he loycth
a cheerful giver, We certainly ought not to
begrudge to build him tabernacle worthy
of this great metropolis.

days died. Another was hired, and shared
the same fate A third and fourth filed the
vacancy in the household, and followed in sue
cession the sweeping summons of the same
fell destroyer. Following the impulse of a
natural dread, the merchant went to Mobile
10 avoid the destructive visitation of the
