Public NoticespE W CHUR CH, T, E AE O. HE existing Anglican churches of St. Paul " "t. Peter being now insufficient for the inng population of "Wellington, attached to the Church of England, a series of meetings of the vestries and members of those churches, iparately and collectively, have been held ,vith 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 congregation while the church is building, j. he services of one already experienced in the Colony, and lately returned from England, e been secured. 'he Provincial Government have granted an acre of land adjoining Sussex Square, and in the neighborhood of the new College, at a leratfe price, and this site for a church and ■onage has been purchased by the Standing mittee without involving cost to the proposed 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 Eoad; it will be available for such of the pupils of the College as may board there, or in its neighborhood; and 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. Finally, at a,meeting of all persons interested, called by public advertisement, and held at Messrs. Bethune and Hunter's offices, on the 11th inst., the following gentlemen agreed to act as a General Committee to promote the work : • His Excellency the Governor. His Lordship the Bishop.
