II Is said that this church property will be the
innest belonging to the Methodist Episcopal church
an America. the estimated cost of which is
100000. The Sabbath school room is commo-
dious, well heated and ventilated, and is now being
furnished with black walnut seats. The walls are
beautifully frescoed, and appropriate Scripture
moltoes, wrought in blue and gold, adorn the
walls. founta Is placed in the centre Of the
room, which may or may not be o suitable orna-
ment, according TO the respective tastes Of ndi-
vltudals. whatever may be the differences of
opinion IN THIS respect, 1t cannot be denied that
Sucn piece OF unique 0rnamentaton is suggestive
OF many Scripture truths. The Rev. G. w. PAYNE

congregation (Which is now worshippng in South
Fifth street) in April that being the ma xmum
