Church Re-OOenPd.

Yesterday the New Castle NJ. f.
church, which has been improved and
beautifed under the direction of its. tai
ented and energetic pastor, Rev. Geo,
R. Brstor. was rr-opened for divine
service. The audience room, now one
of the most beautiful on the Peninsula,
was filled with large and intelligent
congregation, to whom Rev. J. h. Mann,
former pastor, preached the gospel, af-
ter which Rev. J. i. Bristor made a
plain and lucid statement of the tinan-
cial necessities Of the occasion. Mr..
Mann. who has some little notorieity,
as beggar, managed the finance. In
connection with the pastor asking for
the sum of s 100 to meet all 0utStand-
ING claims against both the Trustees
and the Stewards. $3.50 of this was
promptly pledged, aud in the evening,
as Rev. ]. i. Merritt was to preach and
Mr.. B. take up the collection, doubt
less the whole sum was raised.
In the afternoon the Sunday school
had most delightful session. 1t was
addressed by Mr.. Mann and gave one
of the largest collections ever made by
it towards the improvements of the
church.
OF the services at night we cannot
speak definitely, as we were not on
hand, but as Mr.. Bristor showed him
self almost superior to Mr.. NJ. as beg
gar, the final report is sure to he en-
tirely satisfactory. Upon the whole,
Yesterday was field day at New Castle.
