The existing Anglican churches of St. Paul and St. Peter being now insufficient for the increasing population of Wellington, attached to the Church of England, a series of meetings of the vestries and members of those churches, separately and collectively, have been held with a view to provide an additional church in the Te Aro district. The congregations of St. Paul's and St. Peter's have each of them guaranteed a moiety of a stipend of £3OO, for the present year, to a clergyman who will labor to draw together The Provincial Government have granted an ere of land adjoining Sus " ' n :_ lie neighborhood of the. moderate price, and this site for a church and parsonage has been purchased by the Standing Cnuunittee without involving cost to the proed new parish. This site will be easily accessible to a large portion of the present parish of St. Peter, and will serve the district which it may be anticipated will be rapidly built upon along and adjacent to the Adelaide* Road; it will be available for such of the pupils of the College 3 may board there, or in its neighborhood; rid while it will greatly relieve the church of St. Peter, it will stand in a district of its own, instead of competing with the latter, as it might do were it to be placed nearer to it.
