_Treasurer_, J. ROBISON WRIGHT, Esq., 16, Summer Place, Onslow Square,

_Secretary_, Mr. M. WALBROOK.

_Office_, 5B, SLOANE STREET, S.W.

ORIGIN OF THE INSTITUTE. Was formed in 1857 by a few friends who were interested in the maintenance of Evangelical principles, and who were anxious at the same time to combat the aggressive movements of the Romish Priests connected with the Brompton Oratory.

OBJECT. To maintain and defend that blessed Gospel which our Reformers in the 16th Century brought to light, after it had been obscured by the darkness of Mediæval superstition. In a word, to warn the incautious, to win back the lapsed, inform the ignorant, and enlighten those whose minds are darkened by superstition.

MEANS EMPLOYED. The combined agency of the Press, the Platform, and the Pulpit, with Classes for Controversial Divinity. A careful vigilance over the efforts of Romish emisssaries. The issuing of papers bearing directly on the truths of the Gospel, as opposed to the innovations of the Church of Rome.

_Subscriptions and Donations will be thankfully received at the Office_, 5B, SLOANE STREET, S.W., _by the Treasurer_, J. ROBISON WRIGHT, Esq.; _or the Secretary_, Mr. M. WALBROOK. _Money Orders to be drawn on the Post Office_, 179, Sloane Street. _Bankers_, THE CONSOLIDATED BANK, Charing Cross, S.W.

THE SUBURBAN PRESS, AND LONDON WEST DISTRICT RECORDER.

ESTABLISHED IN MAY, 1868,

to supply a connective view of Local matters and doings relating to all the principal suburban Parishes and Districts, with intelligent and useful articles. A great need existed for such an organ in consequence of the rapid progress of population, west, north, and south-west of the Metropolis. All that is done by a Journal specially representing the interest of the CITY, is done by this as the press representative of the SUBURBS, having at the same time a city and a general connexion. This Journal contains much Church matter and news.

In Politics it is Conservative; in Religion it is thoroughly Protestant and catholic. By its design, scope, and editorial management, it obtains ready acceptance with all classes.

As an Advertising medium it is therefore most eligible, and the following scale of charges places its advantages within the reach of all:—

_s._ _d._ Situations, Apartments, Houses, Businesses Required 0 9 or to Let, 20 words or under Every additional line 0 3 Marriages, Births, and Deaths 1 6 Tradesmen’s Ordinary Announcements, per inch 1 6 Double Column, per inch 2 6 Paragraphs, Company, Legal, Election, and Parochial 0 6 Advertisements, per line Auctioneers’ Announcements, per line 0 4

*** SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS CAN BE MADE FOR CONTINUOUS ADVERTISEMENTS.

_Printed and Published every Saturday morning at the Office_, _Shepherd’s
Bush_, _W._, _and to be obtained of all Newsagents_.

Shepherd’s Bush, London, W.

FOOTNOTES.

{0} This advertisement and those following come at the front of the published book, but have been moved to the end to make the eBook more readable.—DP.

{21} Mr. Wesley’s Journal reveals, as follows, his presence in Kensington twice; but says nothing about the _preaching_, except his discourse to the smith and his servant. But the fact of his being subsequently there and lingering in the Gardens would seem to argue that he went there on preaching missions:—

“Monday, August 22, 1743.—Passing through Kensington found my mare
had lost a shoe. This gave me an opportunity of talking closely for
near half an hour both to the smith and his servant.”

“Saturday, July 6, 1754.—I spent two hours in the Gardens at
Kensington. They are just fit for a king, far more grand than
pleasant; and yet nothing so grand as many parts of the Peak in
Derbyshire.”

{81} Since writing the above the new Church has been consecrated. The works having been pushed forward, it was in a sufficient state of preparation by the 14th of May, on which day the Lord Bishop of London consecrated the edifice, just three years after the old Church had been closed. A large and influential assembly gathered within the walls of the new building, comprising many people of various denominations. To these the Right Rev. Prelate discoursed on Christian unity, in a truly Catholic spirit and manner; and after the sermon the offertory taken by collection from pew to pew amounted to £358 7_s._ 2_d._ Of this amount £196 10_s._ 4_d._ was in paper; £61 in sovereigns; £38 10_s._ in half-sovereigns; £62 6_s._ 3_d._ in silver, and sevenpence in copper.
