COMMITTEE. A Good Sign. The Baptist church is one of the oldest of our religious organi. zations, and its house of worship is the oldest church edifice now in use in the city.

It has never been a very strong body either in numbers or in wealth, but in epite of many obstacles, it has main tained a creditable and quiet existence since its first establishment. In one respect it is a pattern for ether churches: it has no debt and incurs none it being standing order of the church that no liability be incurred until the money to meet it has been raised. The church was slowly but steadily gaining strength under the leadership of the late Rev. Mr. Bright, whose sudden death at the time of his greatest apparent usefulness, cast a gloom over cur comma nity about a year ago, when they were once more left without a leader.

Without being discouraged they kept on the even tenor of their way, maintaining regular service until July 15th, when the church was closed for repairs, that it might present a more inviting appearance when their new pastor should be installed, which service will take place to-morrow evening. These repairs have cost about $1,000 which sum has been raised and nearly collected. The house has been painted a light drab and brown on the outside, and white in the inside. The walls have been calcimined In light-tint the sides being papered in walnut paper-all the pews are cushioned in crimson rep, and the aisles newly carpeted. The space back of the pulpit has been fres-coed, and the pulpit lurnished with three new-style chairs and a new desk.

We hope that these signs of external prosper ity may indicate a period of enlarged usefulness, for this devoted band of Christians. New Yor StocK JSaarKet New Tork, Sept. 5. Money at 23 per cent-Sterling Exchange, 4.82!44 85tf. Gold at 1.03.
