Some Thoughts on St. Paul's.
MY DEAR T4fnnsf—Might 1 crave a
small portion of your space wherein I
may ventilate some thoughts of mine
touching St. Paul's and its surround-
ings?
urround.ings? To begin, it is by farthe most
commanding church site in town, for
we find the other churches either hid
away in hon ows, or built upon the de.
clining slope of the rising grounds.
But there are two eyesores- ot mine,
which have -vexed my soul •for eume
years. Vitst there is the gravel pit.
The vestrymen are public spirited, I
4rav tr no manner of doubt. Why not
acquire the. property, level the escarp-
ment to the' angle of repose, as geolo-
giats phrase it, sod it over, plant
maples, firs; and a sprinkling of ever
green shrubs? Then as to the cavity.
It might be utilized tats a site for a lec-
ture hall, acid an easy tariff for the
use of the same would soon recoup the
outlay. AS to the eyesore .No. 2, 1
refer to tTie bell tower. Why, your
salt well's wooden ,jerkin does not
offend the eye half so much. Take a
lesson from the bees, that glue over
with a.eoating of wax what they can
not remove. Let Lombardy poplars
be planted, and in a few years the
abortion would be hidden, and the
beauty of the ohurch site would be
enhanced ant;. heightened. I observed
that portions of the brick work were
showing signs of decay, Let the
lishop'b presence hi our midst be the
ity for repairs, aud let the Sunday
school scholars have the honor ot buy
ing their own cherries (vide., organ).
I submit the following tohelrle for
their consideratior,;
10 Scholars at $1.00 $10
20 " .75 15
$0 .60 15
40 " 25... 10
Total , . . ,$50
A month would eufllce for carrying
out -the scheme, and the young folks
would like, the music of an instrument
