t'Prosbyterian Church of Fraukford, of which/toy.
' Junta Price is Pastor, have, for
• some time, been
engaged in the erection of a .new edifice, which
'le now approanhing completion, and which
promisee to be one of the handsomest ornaments
of thaVard. It is located at the corner of
Orthodox and Franklin streets; and from the
fict that the ground is high, the neighborhood
improving, and the position central', the site is
universally confessed to be among if not the
very choicest, in the place. The style of archi
tecture selected is the early English, which is
very simple, but exceedingly appropriate for the
rural districts of our city. fhe front part of the
buildite4., which is intended for the main audience
room, is one story high, and the rear part,
with walls eight. is
two stories. T he a
firstuniform h
story is divided
Into four rooms, namely : a lecture-room,
which is to have permanent pews, and one
each for prayer-meetings, trustees and pastor.
These rooms can all be throctm Into one by
sliding doors and sash, affording accommodation
for four hundred persona. The ceilings of these
rooms will be about twelve ftet high. The second
story is Intended tor Sabbath school purposes.
This apartment will also be .110:led - into four
rooms—one main fiaubath-school room and three
Bible class-rooms, capable of being thrown into
one Dy eliding sash. Arrangements are also

main Sabbath-school room will be about sixteen
feet high. ,Between the rooms just described and
the audience chamber there Is a vestibule eight
feet wide, containing stairs loading to the second
story.
The audience chamber is 41 feet wide and 68
feet long inside the wall. It is proposed to have
an end gallery, and also two horseeshoe galleries,
ono on each side of the pulpit. The floor is so
arranged that persons sitting in the rear are
higher than in front. A tower some 13 feet
square rises at the southeast corner of the build
ing,la front; from the ground to the pinnacle the
distance is about 72 feet. The entrance to the
:Indictee chamber is through this tower and a
, porch In front. The lecture and Sabbath-school
rooms are approached by doors in the sides.
Much care h bee
as n taken tomake thelventilation
as perfect as possible. There aro brick flues
built in the wall, opening at the
floor in each room, conducting to a ventilator in
the roof, and into each of these flues a gas-burner
can be lighted should it be deemed necessary.
There are 'also registers connected with the out
side of the building for the introduction of fresh
air, and others opening at the ceiling for sum
mer ventilation. The walls are built of Frank
ord stone, and the outside is finished in what is
termed rubble work, pointed, with mortar a shade.
lighter than the stone. Around the front and
tower are buttresses capped with granite; win
dow, door-sills and steps are of the same mate
rial. The heads of all openings aro of ordinary
stone, hammer-dressed.
The dimensions of the building outside are as
follows: length, 123 feet: width, 45 feet; width
front, including tower, 60 leet; heighth of side
walls, 24 feet. The roof is slated. A cellar rens
under the entire church. The walls are feet
thick in the cellar, allowing 6 Inches foribl.joists
to rest on, thus preventing decay in the wood.
Sand of the very beat quality was procured in the
cellar sufficient for the whole building. The ma
terials usedin the construction of the edifice are
of the'very best quality, and every part of the
\ :wink has been done In a most substantial man
ner. The cost of this building, if erected by cen
tred in most parts of the city, would probably
bantam - 00,000 to $40,000, but the building coin
..ukittee are of , the opinion that owing to the way
• they have managed the work, and on account of
other things favorable, they can finish for about
$20,000. The lecture roam will be finished in a
few weeks, and the expenses thus far will be
about $16,00Q, all of which has been paid except
some $2,500, which it is hoped will be raised at
the opening, The congregation, WhlCh numbers
about ono honored weathers, have been working
energetically, and they rejoice_ to say that they
have met with universal sympathy in tee coat
i:inanity. The main ft atures of the present plan
of, the. building are the fruit of the pastor's study
and careful observation for years, wherever he
has traveled; but too much praise cannot be

BANK CLERKS BKNISVICIAL ASSOUIATION.-013
Thursday afternoon there was held at the rooms
•of the Clearing House Association a meeting of
the bank clerks of this city. to take into consi
deration the advisability of lurrning a social and
beneficial association, such as exists at present in
the city of New York. There was quite a nu
merous attendance, most of the banks being re
presented, and it was evident that the clerks
were in earnest in the matter. Mr. Lehman,
paying teller of the Girard National Bank, offi
ciated as President. He briefly stated the iuten•
Lions of the organization, which are entirely
of a benevolent nature, mid then there was read
a number of communications upon the subject
from parties in New York, which illustrated the
formation of the 6uciety in that city. Although
of quite recent Origin, it now numbers 900 mew
hers and has a fund of e 7,000. In two cases—
the deaths of two inenfin..lb—it has already mani
fested its usetulni6s by aiding substantially their
families. The banks and bankers have been
very liberal toward the Society, two gentlemen
contributing a check of •51,1)00 each. It is to be
hoped that the lieu spill, will be manifested in
our midst.

W were
ARS= o w TOM 'TOBACXXI a
shown, a clays pr two ago; an intereiting,rello of
the past, stump is to be placed in the new. rooms
of the Tobacco Trade; 129 North Front street. •
It is the banner carried by the "Tobactio Trade
of Philadelphia" in the great procession on the
centennial annitersary of Washington in ASV )
and which has been preserved with jealous care
for thirty-seven years, by the venerable Francis
Cooper, the 'oldest tobacconist now living in
Philadelphia.
The banner measures five feet wide,and is of the
same length, and is made of heavy silk, doubled,
the front being white, and the back trimmed
with heavy silk, fringed, cords and blue tassels.
A tine oil painting, executed by Williams (a cel
ebrated banner painter of the day), graces each
aide of the banner. On the face appears two full
length figures—one of the "Father of his Coun
try," the other of an Indian Chief. The latter is
in the act of offering the smoking calumet of
peace to Washington, who holds in his hands a
tobacco leaf. Over their heads appears the
legend, "Flourish the plant l" The reverse bears
a fine full length figure of an Indian,surroundd by
tobacco plants, pipes, cigars, boxes, snuff kegs
bladders and jars, and a row of pig-tail.
Mr. Cooper, the owner of the above, has been
onaaged in the tobacco business in this city for
seventy-three years, dating from the time when
he, a boy of nine years, entered the establish
ment of William hamilton ' on Second street,
below Market, in the year 1796. lie is still ac
tively engaged in business with Mr. Geo. Walker
at the corner of Eleventh and Melon streets, and
looks to be good for a score of years yet. On
the memorable occasion that called forth the
banner we have described, Mr. C. was the grand
marshal for the day, and he describes, with all the
freshness of the events of yesterday, the inci
dents of that celebration. He relates how the
one hundred apprentices paraded in their clean
white aprons—how old Wm. Long spun tobacco
on a truck and dispensed "pig-tail" to the crowds
upon the sidewalks, &e.
At the recent opening of tho rooms of the To
bacco Trade, old Mr. Cooper was debarred from
attending by reason of a domestic affliction. If
be had been present a most intensely interesting
address would have been given by him. Ii le
hoped that while he retains his freshness of
memory he will commit to paper his early recol
lections, which will be not only Interesting and
valuable to the Tobacco Trade, but to the whole
community.

ALL CREATION is putting on its new spring
clothes. The caroling robin in the apple tree
makes merry music as he warbles forth the story
of his new coat of feathers. With monotonous
note of vague melancholy the frog breaks forth
in the praises of his mud-spattered spring over
coat. The fields put on their green vestments of
emerald grass, and wave their melodies in the
coolibg breeze—
And—and—and—several things more might be
remarked in this line, but we continue in the
clothes line, by remarking that the customers of
Rockhill & Wilson, of the Great Brown Stone
Ball, as they adorn themselves in the elegant
garments of unsurpassed style, made at low
prices, of the most elegant fabrics, completely
take the shine oil of all the feathered creation,
as well as the other inhabitants of field, air, or
water.
The unexampled facilities for the production of
the finest class of masculine raiment, by Rockhill
& Wilson, have put them far beyond competition;
and their long experience, ample capital, admira
ble arrangements for carrying out the details of
their vast business, are enough to assure the pub
lic of what they have long been persuaded,
namely: that,
603 AND 605 CpIESTNIIT STRZIRT
is the place where all gentlemen can best buy
their spring supplies of tine clothes for 1869.
Ali ATTRACTIVE EXHIBITION.—On Monday
next Lent's famous New York Circus will pitch
its tent upon the lot, Eighth street, above Race,
and begin a brief season. The proprietor, with
apparently good reason, claims for this circus the
first rank among similar exhibitions in the
country. He has a very large company, which
embraces some of the most accomplished per
formers in the world, and his stock of trained
animals is not only extensive, but excellent.
This circus has had extraordinary popularity in
New York, and we doubt not it will have great
success here.
