ST. JUDE'S CHURCH AVON DALE.

A Ult-K eonoourgo of persons assembled at Avondale on Saturday afternoon to witness the ceremony of laying the stone of the new church, to be dedicated to St. Jude, the Apostle. The afternoon was not specially favourable; the air was cold, with occasionally sunny showers The ceremony was performed by His Lordship the Bishop of Auckland, who was surrounded by the city and suburban clergy, ladies, wardens and vestrymen, and residents ot the immediate localities, The spit which had been selected for the new church is in tho midst of a growing population, and pic turesquely situated on the brow of the hill overlooking the settlement of Avon dale, and when erected tho church will be seen towering above the scenery tor miles round. Wo may state that tho site was presented by Mr Palmer. The archi tect, Mr Edward Bai fcley, prepared the plans, and Mr Amos Bcnthnm is the contractor for tho church Tho stone was dated "A.D., 188-1." The following ladies nnd gentlemen were noticed among the interested assemblage ■■— Yen. Archdeacon Dud'oy (St. Sop-'cbros), Rev. John Haseldon, incumbent, Revs. W . Tebbs, Lloyd, Keating, Walpole, Davis, Bates, and O'Callaghan ; also, Mrs Cowio and other ladies. The proceed ings opened with the hymn, " Glorious Things of Thee are Spoken," by the incumbent of St, Jude's, followed by a portion of chap. 6 of the Book of Chronicles. Mr IJaselden then read the following words of the scroll, which, with I copies of tho " Church Gazette," Evening ' Star, " Now Zealand Herald," and report of the parish for last year, wore placed in a neatly-formed recess by Bishop Oowie : — "In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. To tho honour and glory of Almighty God, und the edification of the holy Catholic Church, the foundation stone of this church was laid hy tho Right Rev. William Garden Cowie, D.D., Bishop of the Diocese, on this, the thirteenth day of September, in tho year of our Lord ono thousand eight hundred and eighty-four; being the forty-eighth yearof the reign of our Most Gracious Sovcrign Lady, Queen Victoria ; Sir W. Drummond Jervois being Governor of tho colony; the Most Rev. Henry John Chitty Harper, D.D., Bishop of Christchurch, being Primate; the Rev. John Haselden being incumbent of this parochial district; Mr John Bollard and Mr Alfred N. Howell being the churchwardens; Messrs Althorpe, Garrett, Leach, Matthews, Peck, and Simpson being the vestrymen; Mr Palmer being the giver of the site ; Mr Allan Kerr Taylor, Mr John Bollard, and Captain Clayton being the trustees of the site; Mr Edward Bartley being the architect; Mr Amos Bentham being tho builder. This church was dedicated under tho name of St. Jude, for the celebration of Divine worship according to the rites and ceremonies of the Church of the Province of New Zealand, commonly called the Church of England,"

His Lordship, with a handsome silver trowel, performed the spreading of tho cement, nnd the scoria stone, smoothly sbaied, was lowered into its position.

His Lordship, turring to tho listening people, deli -e.ed a brief address, in which ho said that the want of a church suitable for conducting Divine worship had long been felt at Avondale, and he must say that tho tetters had laboured order conc'dcrable disadvantages to realiso their chei 'shed wish, and great credit was duo to thoio faithful laymen who had kept the congregation together. As most of the people kne.v, the church was to be called St. Jude, in accordance with a wise custom of associating their churches with tho names of distingrished servants of God, not for tho purpose, as some might imugine, of glorifying a saint, hut to encourage God's servants in the path of righteousness. St. Jude, of whom com paratively little is known, said, " Contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints." His Lordship referred io tho work of tho Church, which was not peculiarly the work of the clergy, but of all who wero willing to take part in diffus ing good for the general elevation of tho whole community. His Lordship con cluded a brief but appropriate address hy expressing a hope that the new church might bo opened f reo of debt. A collection was mado in aid of the building, amounting to £15 lis. A choir was presont Miss Dakin presiding at the harmonium. Tho proceedings terminated with tho Benedic tion, pronounced by the Bishop.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

The special meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, hold lato on Friday afternoon, was called to considor a report from the Committee, which was printed in our last

Auckland and Onehunga Hahboues.— Mr Aickin, in moving the adoption of the clause of the Committee's report commenda tory of tho new Harbour Board Bill, and Manukau Harbour Board Bill, pointed out that the former measure based our Harbour Board upon the same constitution as that of the Clyde Harbour Trust, which had been found to be about the best institu tion of the kind in the world. Mr Aickin went on to indicate the benefits which would accrue both to Onehunga and Auckland by the administration of both harbours being vested in the Auckland Har bour Board.—Mr McMillan, in seconding the motion, suggested as a desirable addi tion to the motion a clause recommending the appointment to the Harbour Board of the President of the Chamber as well as one other member.—Mr Aickin considered that any such effort to increase the Chamber's representation would be futile.—Mr D. H. McKenzie moved as an amendment, and Mr L. D. Nathan seconded," That provision be made in the Harbour Board Bill that all members hitherto nominated by the City Council, tho Parnell Borough Council, and the Onehunga Borough Council.be in future elected by the ratepayers."—Mr H. Brett spoke in support of Mr McMillan'6 sug gested proposition for the increased re presentation of the Chamber. —Mr J. C. Firth recommended Mr MeKenzie to withdraw his amendment, in order to have the most important question deter mined satisfactorily, viz., the vesting of the administration of our two harbours in one body.—After some further discussion, the amendment was lost by 12 to S.—Mr Stevensonthenmoved, "That theCityCoun cil members be reduced from four to three." Mr Firth seconded pro forme, and the amondment and the original motion were carried.

West Coast Railway Route.—Mr Firth moved:—"That in the opinion of this Chamber, the North Island main trunk railway should bo carried on with all pos sible expedition, and that Government bo requested to take steps for tho approval by Parliament of the line this session, in order that the one million loan authorised by the Act of 18S2 may* be at onco raised for tho purpose specified. That this Chamber is definitely of opinion that the route via Stratford (western line) is the best in the interests of the colony, and claim with the utmost con fidence : (1) That this route will develop a greater area of fertile agricultural and pastoral country than any other proposed line, thereby rendering vast tracts of rich land easy of access that would be otherwise unavailable for settlement. (2) Facility would be given for the development of coal and other minerals known to exist along the western line. (3) That the cost of construc tion would bo about £400,000 less than tho central line, and that tho working expenses and net revenue must bo largely in favour of tho Stratford route. . (4) That in the important matter of distance the Stratford line is actually shorter. (5) That the pro posed Marton route can mean nothing less than shutting off the West Coast settle ments from commercial relations with Auck land, thus diverting the whole of tho trade elsewhere, whilst the Stratford line would give Wellington her fair share of the West Coast trade."—Mr Firth spoke forcibly in support of these resolutions. Ho said Wellington would soon be con nected with ono coast of the North Island, and she had therefore no reason to question Auckland's right to be connected with the other coast.—Mr S. Vaile seconded tho resolution, which was unanimously car ried.—On the motion of Mr R. H. Steven son, seconded by Mr Vaile, it was resolved to have the resolution printed, and a copy forwarded to the Minister of Public Works and all the Auckland members, accom panied with a request to the latter that they should net with unanimity upon the matter.

Accommodation for Government De partments—Mr J. Lamb moved, "That the Auckland Chamber of Commerce is of opinion that enlarged accommodation is required for the carrying on of tho business of the Government departments in Auck land, and that steps should be taken with out delay to construct a building for the Custom House on the site reserved for that purpose."—The Chairman, in seconding the motion, pointed out that the present offices for Government departments were inconveniently overcrowded, and that the erection of new buildings would relieve this strain, and also provide accommodation in town for the Official Assignee.—The Mayor

The 'Frisco Mail Sebvioe.—Mr L. D. Nathan moved :—(1) "Should the Govern ment of New South Wales carry out their intention to retire from the San Francisco mall contract, this Chamber is of opinion that the service ought to be maintained at the sole cost of this colony ;" (2) " That this Chamber approves of the proposal to establish a monthly mail service by direct steamers to and from England in substi tution for tho present mail system via Suez, such steamers to bo run on dates which will give a fortnightly mail in conjunction with the San Francisco service." He thought it was possible with tho present 'Frisco boats to shorten tho communication with London to 3° da\v, and with faster boats to SOdays. —JVIr Firth seconded the resolution, and it was adopted. r , ...

HELENSVILLE SUNDAY SCHOOL.

In religious circles business in Helensville is extraordinarily active. All the prevailing denominations aro represented, and hold services fortnightly, save the Wosleyans, who seem to swallow comfortably three services a week. But wo must not exclude the "Infidel," a comparatively active body also,, who, however, seem to be fast losing ground. Their meetings aro few and far between, but regularly conducted by their best men procurable. Now, it scemsto be everyone's opinion that Helensville is one of the worst places in the province indeed, we gather tbo same idea from tho moat in significant sources—in the towns and in tho country, from society at large and from Wviduals. To some the name alone is sjfficient to condemn the place, and to some minds Helensville constitutes tho Kaipara "Gomorrah." But there is no further need for this idea being circulated abroad. There exists now an evidence of a better state of things. Whatever has in tho past been wrong is about to be righted. Now the remedy is simply this, that of getting hold of the young and training them up in the common Sunday-school. Tho Helensville Sunday-school, which commenced with this aforesaid end in view about four j-ears ago, has now gained a substantial footing. The first soiree came off in the Foresters' Hall on Monday evening last, and, it is com j pitted, half the township, about3oopersons, were present. Mr Ballons, the president, who has worked laboriously since the com mercomer fc.has well earned the sympathy of parents and frierds around. _ The chief feature of the evening's entertainment was, of course, tho tea, and Mr Hunter, of the Bridge-street Bakery, exhibited a capital sample of his baking powers in supplying a perfect collection of cakes, buns, pies, tarts, &c, mado from the (lour from the local mil. The children thoroughly en joyed themselves. The bazaar, another feature of the evening's entertainment, was presided over by Mrs Pennall, and worked well, realising about £13. The bran tubs, presided over by Mr and Mrs Ingham, caused much amusement, oven amongst the adults, and realised about _4. Several hymns from the Sankey collec tion were sung by tho school choir during tho evening, which seefned to run in harmony throughout. Threo hours of innocent amusement thus stole away, and the proceedings were brought to a close by the President intimating the fact that as there seemed a probability of some of those present finishing up with a dance, he wished it to be thoroughly understood that such dancing had no connection whatever with the Sunday-school. The receipts go in aid of the library of the school.
