Public Notices. E W CHUECH, T E AEO. 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. Paid’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 a congregation while the church is building. The services of one already experienced in the Colony, and lately returned from England, have been secured. , The Provincial Government have granted an acre of land adjoining Sussex Square, and in the neighborhood of the new College, at a moderate price, and this site for a church and parsonage has been purchased by the Standing Committee without involving cost to the proposed new parish. This site will be easily accessible to a large portion of the present parish of St. I 3 eter, and will serve the district which it may be anticipated will be rapidly built upon along and adjacent to the Adelaide Hoad; 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, ns it might do were it to be placed nearer to it. Pinally, at a meeting of all persons interested, called by public advertisement, and held at Messrs. Bethune and Hunter’s offices, outlie 11th iust., the following gentlemen agreed to act as a General Committee to. promote the work : His Excellency the Governor. His Eordship the Bishop.
