The environsofPhiladelphia abound in pleasant summer residences, and many of our citizens alternately reside in the country While they hiber nate in briok' and marble blocks into compact city. This emigrating like birds, every change of season, in a olimate so delightful as ours, is not suited to man’s nature, which naturally loves a local 'habitation and a fixed place of abdde/ still even this k to be preferred to the deihoralizing fashion of Summering at some crowded watering place, where home, comfort, and ease are sacrificed in the pursuit of pleasure. There is no locality, how ever, that so fully oombines- theadvantflgea of city and country, as that part of West Philadelphia, long known as Hamilton village. At this season the rich and abundant foliage, ample yards, and beautiful gardens surrounding the stately mansions and humbler cottages, give an. air of beauty and comfort, hhgg'eiltfce of thelSlyslan Fields of the poets. These comforts are within a half hour’s oartride of the busiest part of ike city, so ' that after the daily task is accomplished, the huaband and father soon finds himself with his family en joying thb luxuries of a quiet country viWgfc man who has his residoneaAerejaeeid' not go abroad lit simmer in pnrsuit of rest, nor return to .the eity in winter foe to sake of greater comfort.

The fact that there'are no vacant houses, where building goes on rspidlyv shows that these advantages are beginning to be appreciated. • i ” - V The increased and increasing population require also tot ehuroh accommodations should he in creased.' A colony from a small Baptist church, if not compelled by necessity to swam, have .found occasion to separate from the old .hive, and, have erected an elegant brown-stone church, while the parent ohureh have been stimulated to rebuild. The 0. S, Presbyterians have just completed anew church a little north of Market St. The Episco palians have already two churches, High and Low, though, the low ohureh is externally the highest, as the other had the-misfortune, iateljfto lose its top-most appendage in a gale of wind. Walnut Si Presbyterian ohnroh; Biev. Mr. Butler’s, has for twenty years‘served to wants of our denomi nation. till it became too straight for the farther growth of the congregation, and necessity and duty compelled them to go forward and build such a house as theplaoe and occasion demandofthem, though it should strongly tax their means.and faith. -<v> .• < f'.

The congre gation have, contributed willingly and largely, and yrittfmoder&te aid from the wealthier churches of the oityj they will have a house itself, exclusive of lot, easting 818,000, nearly free from debt/ The importance and necessity of this enterprise, none will doubt, When they consider that the increase of to Presbyterian element in the community du ring the last two years, would itself fill the old 'house- LADIES’ PAIR. The quiet, persevering energy with which all have been engaged in building the church, has been truly encouraging. Lslt week 'a Pair was held in the lecture room, to yaise means ,to trim and ifurnish the audience roqm. The matter was left to the managemeuV.df ladies. These preparations were earned forward with so little ado, that Some fearedthat it would result in a failure; othershad butfaiat hope; and we cdh fess we thought the pastor’s expectations extrava garit, when he estimated the result at $800; hut to the surprise of all, it closed with over $6OO as the gross receipts of the treasury; leaving clear of all expenses, $5OO. Truly.a gqod beginning. The social influence of these gatherings, too, is said to have beqn valuable, in ,bringing the con gregation together, and making them better ac quainted. Though we, the senior editor, habitually wor ship with this congregation, severe siebness has kept us Within doors for several long months, where we Could only see ttfe Wilders at their work, and hear to songs of Zion, on the ‘Sabbath at a diatanoe. We regretted our inability to enjoy per sonally this social festival, but we are gratified to know that we were not forgotten. At an hour in the evening that we were not accustomed to re ceive company, our room was visited by messen gers from the "Fair,” laden with gifts, both comfortable and ornamental. Things not only tasteful and edible, but beautiful and useful. The only explanation was contained in these words “For Dr. H—— From the . Ladies at the Fair.” We know no good reason why we should be thus singled out, Bave the’ sympathy that wa s naturally felt for us in our loneliness and depriva tion. For these' kind tokens of remembrance, we bless the ” ladies fair” one and all, and may God reward them &\l according to Mis riches m glory by. Christ Jetus. ■ aWligenre.

They have given them an alphabet, grammar and dictionary; preserved their language fyoin extinction ;,givenhita literature, and translated •into; it the Bible and works.of .devotion, science, and entertainment, etc:, etc. They, have established schools, reared up native teachers, and so pressed their Work that now the proportion of inhabitants who can read and write is greater than in New England; and whereas they found these islanders a nation of half naked savages, living in the surf and on the sand, eating raw fish, fighting among themselves, tyrannized over by feudal chiefs, and abandoned to serisnaUtigs, they now see them decently clothed, recognizing the .law of marriage, knowing something of accounts, going to.school and .public worship with "more regularity •than the people do at home, and the more elevatedppf them, taking, part in conducting tho affairs of the c^bb- 1 stitntioual monarchy under. which they live, holrfin% seals on the judicial bench and in the legislative chambers; and filling posts in the local magistracies:; - THECARSHArEnEENPBOHIBfrSDRuNIinifO'THRohGH Frankford on Sunday in consequence of complaint having been entered on theVgroupd that they disturb religious'meetings and subject Frankford to rowdy ism on the Sabbath.

All this encroached upon the rest of Sunday, and compelled the drovers and butchers to devote part of that day to preparing for the business of the day following. To abrogate this sort of thing, the cattle drovers at the Avenue Drove Yard will Hereafter sell, on Tuesday instead of Mon day. On July 3d, this arrangement goes into effects The drovers have come out positively for the ob servance of Sunday, and in future will neither yard cattle to sell on that day, or give any encouragement to the business. , Prater for the Newspapers Neglected.— The Reporter of the Philadelphia Press, at the Baltimore Convention, thus notices an omission which is alto gether too common: A lamentable omission occurred this morning, as on every other since, the Convention opened in this city. ¥e have had most eloquent, most touching,’ most patriotic'prayers. Every branch of the.publio service—-the delegates here, and'their .wives .and children at home, as well as the prosperity of their various business during their absence—have drawn from the excellent preachers most excellent implora tions on the guardianship of Providence, —but the press has never won the slightest recognition.

The fine organ in the gallery, valued at $2,500, was nearly ruined by the fire and water, although an attempt was made to save a portion of the pipes. The loss in paintings and stained glass is very heavy. The four stained glass windows in the east ern portion of the building cost originally; about five thonsand dollars. j They were imported from Europe several years ago. The painting on the ceiling, representing the Tri nity, with the fresco work on the side walls, cost over Wo thousand two hundred dollars.- There was no insurance on any portion of the furniture or paint ings. An insurance of ten thousand dollars in the Pennsylvania Fire Insurance Company on the build ng, is all that can be commanded to repair the da mage, and it is estimated that the loss, over and above the’ insurance, will ho about six 'thousand dollars. ... ...
