A COMMITTEE has been formed for the purpose ot raising funds for the maintenance of a Chaplain of the Christchnroh Hospital, Gaol, and Lunatic Asylum. It seems hardly necessary to dwell on the extreme importance of providing regular Spiritual ministrations for the inmates of these institutions ; nnd these it is impossible to secure, except by the appointment of one Clergyman responsible for, and able to give his whole 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 thank fulness for these blessings, than by helping to make provision for the Spiritual wants of the Patients, Criminals, and Lunatics in our public institutions. It is earnesly hoped that nothing may prevent Christians of every communion, and all benevolent persons, n>m joining in this charitable work. It is proposed that an Annual Stipend of not less than £300 shoqid be provided ; of which amount the Church Property Trustees will contrbute £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 the 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.
