10y 4 similar arrangement to the one re-
ferred to, having been adopted by an official
body connected with the Methodist Episco-
pal Church of this place--and as some little
opposition may be expected in introducing a

SITTING IN CHURcH.--An American writes from
London that in the churches there, whoever comes
6rst, whether gentleman or lady, takes the further
end in the slip, and those that follow, fill up the
remaining seats and thus prevent the awkward
disturbance which occurs in our churches here, in
the process Of filing in and out by men in order to
isolate women at the further end Of the pew. In
churches where the pews are free. the swkwardness
and Inconvenience occasioned TO ladies by the first
Corners taking the aisle end of the pew, is even
greater, as many Of those who obtain that seat
persist i'll sitting still and making those who wish
TO get into the pew, climb over them. very easy
or modest undertaking, especially if the erinoline
Of the lady be at all fashionable. 1t is not the
one who does the climbing however, but the one
who persists in sitting STILL that is to be censured
for this breach of courtesy. 1t is said that the
habit Of gentlemen taking the aisle end of the Pew
originated with the early settlers, who sat near
the doors Of the pews. that in case of an attack
BY the Indians. they might be ready for action
This will account for the prevailing fashion OF
gentlemen occupying the door end of tho pew, but
We have no authority for the custom Of ladies oc-
cupying that position. As there is no longer any
danger of attacks from Indians, We think tins cus
tom offling ont and in like parcel of soldiers, on
the part Of gentlemen. might well be changed, and
We hope that the English custom may be adopted
