CHAPLAINCY OP THE CHRISTCHURCH HOSPITAL, GAOL, AND LUNATIC ASYLUM. A COMMITTEE has been formed for the P'.irpose oi raising funds for the maintenance of a Chaplain of the Christchurch Hospital, Gaol, and Lunatic Asylum. It seems hardly necessary to dwell on tho extreme importance of providing regular Spiritual ministrations for the inmates of these institutions ; and these it is impossible to secure, e*_cept by the appointment of one Clergyman responsible fur, and able to give his wholo time to these duties. Those who are blessed with health of mind and body, and are for the most part, by education and circumstances, placed beyond the temptation to the commission of crime, cannot better show their thankfulness for these blessings, than by helping to make provision for the {.pirituul wants of the Patients, Criminals, and Lunatics in our public institutions. It is earnesly hoped that nothing may prevent Chiistians of every communion, and all benevolent persons, from joining in th's charitable work. It is proposed that an Annual Stipend of not less than £300 should he provided ; of which amount the Church Property TrpGtees will contrbnte £50 annually. The appointment of the Chaplain will rest with the Bishop of Christchurch. Subscriptions and donations are earnestly solicited towards this object. * The following is tho list of subscribers up to the present date. Subscription lists are lying at all the Banks, and at the office of Messrs. Miles and Co. By order otthe Committee, HENRY JACOBS, Chairman. Christchurch, May 27, 1869. £ s. d.
