ARMING AND VENTILATING CHURCHES.
lids are expended in constructing and
; d o ming churches: 'swished upon tower and
, r ire ; organ and bells; upon pulpit and altar;
stained glass; gas fixtures; upholstering
„,1 painting ; nor are the acoustic properties of
audience chamber neglected. No expense is
,pared to make our churches externally attract.
,re or internally beautiful. All these are mat.
of importance and Should be pressed to 'the
, ;: aiost ability of the congregation to pay for
,11. Unfortunately, the matter of warming
~,d ventilation generally receives but a small
of attention,, from either prehitectAr build
in! committee ; consequently the furnace which
ot be placed in the building at the least &name,
which it is believed' will consume the smallest
., count of fuel, is chosen. For ventilation, a few
,I: ,, e•tures are made in the ceiling, freqeently
~:,;ning into a closed loft; besides these, thereare
is windows and deers, all of which are kept
c,rcfully closed in cold weather;—such ere the
, Tly means by which ventilation is' usually' tit
ieilpted. The lecture and school-rooms are fre
aently even more poorly provided for ,thau : the
; : a dience-room. If the building can be made
mfortably warm in winter, it is all that is
aillf.d at, or thought necessary, and no attention is'
1 lid to the source from which the air,l4 taken,

ix to the means of getting rid of vitiated. air.
The f Mowing is a description-of the heating
;inf.l ventilating of several churches, which will .
iOastrate the mode generally adopted.,
church in one of the most flourishing dis
t:-iets of our city, with a minister of marked abil

this arrangement is,;that - trie 'cliereh ie . 'sup

Eu the lecture room, the head and upper part of
the body is in a dry, heated 'atmosphere, while
tile feet and lower extremities are subject to
dr,itttlits of cold damp air. Is it te, be wondered
at, that the minister who is forced to labor in
suet an atmosphere givOs evidence of the effect
lii his personal appearance ? This building has
lately been remodeled and slightly improved.
Another church having its lecture and school
re,ins in the lower part, of .the building, but
above ground, is waruied by a Tortablefurnace.
'111,1,e kritaces are made °output and eneased in
tt , t,t), instead of being placed in brick chambers
{,r(linary furnaces. The small space allowed
tor the air makes it necessary to heat it to a very
temperature, thus producing what is known
burnt or scorched air. The air for warming

th e room to its utmost capacity, yet there is no
of ventilation except the opening of doors
a . 1.1 win lows and exposing the children to
, hilughts of cold air. Whether the physical in
.ttry tistainetl by breathing such an atmosphere
toes not counterbalance the moral instruction im
gaited in the school, is a serious question. The
objec.ionathle air front this school-room is
up to the church, which is .supplied with
eicilators placed in the top of the Gothic roof.
In a beautiful church just completed,by a large
of wealthy congregation, apertures for ventila
r,.n are provided near the ceiling of the lecture
.eltool-ruotn, and in the top of the Gothic
-heti roof ofthe audience chamber which, how
-I:ler.are wanting in capacity and appear to have no
et communication with exteruatair ; but in
tic i4ot-school room,where the tender and most
tibia are crowdd togethir, not even these
means of ventillation are provided, and
t!c.: , l.arttuent is warmed by a close stove, there

-I,:l.:tvatetl with towers and spire, has a bell and
'n, a gallery, an organ, cushioned seats, and
throughout the entire building. Nothing
t " a can minister to the refined' taste is wanting.

'Ai, :o a ladies' parlor and the pastor's study;
))v(). thoi e is a fine s ;hoo•-•uotn, 'occupying the
Sees)lll story, and complete iu all its appur-.
The whole building is warmed by four
I , r4c names, For ventilation, several apertures
lcl't in the ornamental work of the ceilings,
into the loft which has a door coottuuni
"ig with one of the towers. For the lecture
~ a,thtTre are two ventilators on one side of the
only, near the ceiling and controlled by
rives, and placed almost dire tly over the regis
admitting hot air whiCh are in the floor. In
school-roorn are several ventilators controlled
by valves, placed near the ceiling •of-,the room.

half an hour, when there was no ventilation other
than by openings in the ceiling ; investigations
proved that each person vitiated four and seven
tenths cubic feet of air per minute, notwithstand
ing the frequent openiug of doors. Judging
from this, and similar instances, it is necessary
to furni..l four hundred and thirty cubic feet of
air for each person during an ordinary Sabbath
service. This would require for one thousand
persons, a room one hundred: and fifty, by sixty,

EXTRACT Of A LITTAR ?RCM RrY. RICHARD B. EDRS, OP BOLTON,
"For years I was a sufferer from Boils, so that my life became
wearisome through their frequent and persistent recurrence; finally
a carbuncle formed in the small of my back. During its progress
largo pieces of decomposed limb were every day or two cut away,
and the prostration' and general disturbance of the syttem were
great. Before I had recovered from this attack, two smaller car
buncles broke out higher up, and I was again threatened with a
recurrence of the sufferings to which I hadheen so long subjected.
It was ut this time that I commenced, taking the PERUVIAN
SYRUP. I'continned taking it until I bad used five bottles; since
then I have had nothing of the kind. Nor years I was one of the
greatest sufferers. Other medicines gave me partial and temporary
relief, but this remarkable remedy, with a kind and intuitive sense,
went directly to the root of the evil, and did its work with a tho
roughness worthy of its established character."

In.addition to these large cargoes of Black and Japan Teas, the
Company are constant] y receiving large invoices of the finest quality
of Urea' Teas from the Moyune distri.t of China, which are unri
valled for fineness and delicacy of flavor.
To give our readers an ideaUf the piottts which have been made
in the Tea trade, before the establisbment of the Great American
Tea Company, we will-start with the American houses, leaving out
of the account entirely the profits of the Chinese factors.
.The American house in China or Japan makes large profits
on their sales or ahipments--mid some of the richest retired mer
chants in the country have made their innitense forturtee through
their houses in China.
M. The Banker makes large profits upon the. foreign exchange
used in - the purchase of Teas. . ,
3d The Impor, er makes", profit of 39 to 50 per sent. in ninny
4th. On its arrival here it is sold by the cargo, and the Purchaser
sell& it to the, Speculator in involcee of 1069't0 2000 packages at'an
averagaprofitof about-10 pero - ont.' • - - '
sth.. The Speculator sells it to the Wholesale Tea,Dealer irpancs
at a profit of 10 to 15 per cent. • • ,
6th. The Wholesale Tea Dealer sells it to the Wholesale Grocer
in lots to suit his trade, at a profit of about :10 per cent. • ." •
7th. ,The Wholesale Grocersells it to the Retail Dealer at a profit
of 15 to 25 Per cent.
' Bth. The Retailer sells it to the Consumer for ALL TAB PROFIT TM
, ... .
, . ,
Whenion have added to these mar profits as many brokerages,
eartages, !forages,' cdopeiltges and waste, and add . the original cost
of , the Tea, it will be Perceived what Abe Consunier bas to pay.
And now we propose to skow why we can sell so Yelp much lower
than other deatera. - ' '
We propose to do away with all these various profits and broker
ages, corteges; storages, cooperages and waste; with tile eitcePtion
m
of a small coniission paid for purchairing to our correspondents in
China and Jatain, one cartage, and a small profit to ourielves;—
,
which on our large sales will amply pay us.
'By our system of supplying. Clubs throughout the country, con
sumers in all party of the United States can- receive their Teas at
the same prices (with the small additional expense dif trtumporta
tion),its though . they bought at our warehouses in the city.
Some parties laquire as how they shall - proceed . to get up a
Club. The answer is- simPly - this : Let each person wishing to join
ins Cluhflayhowtaush Tea or Coffee he ',Mote, and select the kind
and price frota,our, Price List,,as published in the paper or in our
cireulari: frills the names, kinds, end =mints plainly on the
Hit, as Seen in the Club order published' below; and when the Olubis
complete send it tone bytesil, and we will put 'Teach party's goods
in separate paokages, and Mark . the name upon them, with the
colt;- - Ai - there need be 110 minfusion in their distribution—each
party.getting,e:tactly what ho orders, and no more. 'the cost of
transportation the members of the Club can divide equitably among
themselves.
Parties sending Club: or 'other orders for less than thirty dollars
had better send Postilice Drafts or money with their orders, to
save the expense of collections by express, but larger orders we will
for Ward by express ; to collect on delivery.
Hereafter we will send a complimentary package to the party
getting up the Club. Our profits are small, but we will be as liberal
as We mm afford. We' send no complimentary packages for Clubs
of less than *3O. ' '
Parties, getting their Teas of , aa may confidently rely upon
getting thrm pure and fresh, as they come direct from the Custom
house stores to our-ii; arehonsee.
We warrant 4/1 the goods we sell to give entire satisfaction. If
they are not satisfactory they can be returned at our expense within
80 days, and have the money refunded.
The Company have selected the following kinds from their stock,
which they recommend to meet the wants of Clubs. They are sold
ut cargo prices , the came as the Company sell them in New York,
as thelist of prices will show.
