In Tuesdays paper we printed a short ac-
cotint of the projected edifice for this congre
gation, at Twenty-first and Walnut streets, the
corner-stone of which was laid, with appro
priate ceremonies, last Monday. °Ur &scrip
lion was
,hasty, and necessarily imperfect, so
that we are pleased to' e able to oiler to-day
an authoritative description of the building.
A remarkably neat perspective drawing of the
intended structure is exposed; at. No. 1125
Chestnut - street, in the window of Mr. C. F.
Haseltine, one of the Trustees of the Church,
and a member of the Building Committee. -The
elevation represents a very handsome speci
men. of Gothic, with a rusticated snrface in ex
, .
cellent harmony with the simple and severe
style adopted. As an example of solid and
generally chaste construction it Will be a sou
venir of the taste and liberality of the'con
.
gregatiori, and au ornament to the city.
The new building, the site of which is at the
northeast corner of Twenty-first and Walnut
streets, will consist of a, lofty elera-stotied
Piave,_ feet wide and 119 feet long, termina
ting in an 'apse 'Of five. sides. The nave is
separated by arches froth the aisles and tran
septs. The interior width Will be .64 feet 8'
inches across the transepts and 58 feet across
the, nave and aisles.
At the corner of the streets there . will be a
totter and spire•of .stone, of a total altitude of
feet from the level. f the pavement.
'Pie style of architecture is a mixture of the
French and Enlish of the thirteenth century.
The, exterior will be carried out in stone of
the.; following kinda :—Richmond granite for
the base 'Or plinth; Trenton - .atone for the
g,reater part of the wailing aboye the plinth.
line; Cleveland (Ohio) stone for the tracery of
the windows, moulding of the doorways, etc.,
together .• with red sand -shine, from near
WashingtOrt, D. C.; blue sand-stone; from'
Franklin, Venango county, Pa., and Green
Serpentine, from the Kilmarnock quarries,
Delaware county, Pennsylvania, in
special parts,for contrast of color and decora
tive efieet. The interior face of the walls will be
lined with buff-colored bricks, similar to those
nuide at Milwaukee; some of • the mouldings,
cornices, &c., being of terracotta. No plaster
will be used in any part of the building. The
arehes support ng the clere-story,and dividing
the nave froni the aisles and transepts, 'will be
of brick, resting on columns, the shafts being
of polished American marbles of different col
ors, the bases, bands and capitals of Stock
bridge, Mass., white marble. •
The capitals will be carved with leaves of
American troes slightly conventionalized.
Besides these columns, which are seven in
number, there will be twenty-four smaller
ones, arranged in pairs, in different parts of
the interior. These will also have polished
shafts of American marbles of varying colors,
the capitals being of white marble carved
with flowers.
The ceiling of the nave will be in the form
of a flattened arch, and will be composed Of
heavy moulded ,ribs of wood and -narrow
boarding, all oil and varnished. The height
from the floor to the apex of the ceiling will
be GO feet, while the heightfrom the pave
ment to the ridge of the nave roof will be 80
feet..
The principal entrance to the building will
be from Walnut street. This door will be 11
feet wide, divided by a shaft into two, parts. It
will be deeply recessed, its arched head,
richly, Mouhfea, springing from shaftS with
carved capitals. This door. will be surmounted
by a gabled canopy rising above the pavement
36feet to the top of the finial. The tympanum
of the door. will be filled with a solid plate of
stone, appropriately carved in relief, with a
vesica containing a monogram of the Greek
letters Chi-Rho—the two first letters of the
name of Christ, with the text, "/ am the Door."
This monogram is one of the earliest symbols
which was used for our Lord's name.
Surrounding the vesica will be carved the
Vine; another symbol of our Lord.
There will be an entrance door through the
tower, from Twenty-ihst street, which will
also be recessed and have a richly moulded
arched head. Two doors in the rear of the
building afford entrance to the pastor's study,
and to the Sunday schools, which will be in
an adjoining building.
These entrances also lead into the church.
In one of the transepts will be a gallery for
the accommodation of Sunday School children,
and this is the only gallery there will be in the
building. The opposite transept will contain
the organ = which it is intended shall be a very
complete instrument, with open case and illu
minated pipes.
The large window in the principal gable on
Walnut street will be of four lights, and will
be 17 feet wide by 30 feet high, with richly
traceried head. This window it is designed to
till with stained glass, in memory 'of the cele
brated preacher, George I,Vhitefield, under
whose influence this church was founded, one
hundred and twenty-six years ago. The Sub
ieets of the glass will be the preaching of St.
Jan the Baptist and thb preaching . of St.
Paul at Athens. The• head of the windows
will contain suitable emblems and texts, and
Whitefiehps head in motile, in the form of a
medallion. The clere-story will be lighted,by
lancets arranged in triplets and separated by
clustered columns of stone, the same columns
being repeated in the interior, in terracotta.
These windows are to' be tilled with figured
corrugated glass in quarries, with diapered
stained glass borders.
The transepts will each be lighted by a rose
window, 12 feet 6 inches in diameter. The
one over the organ will be filled with glass
appropriate to the position, showing angels
playing on musical instruments. That in the
opposite transit, it is proposed to make, as it
were, a memorial of the different buildings
which, in times past, the congregation has
occupied. These are the old Academy on
Peurth street, with the date 1743 ; the church
at tie- corner of Third and Arch streets, with
the date Irso ; next, the same church, with
the addition which was made in 181111;
the], the church in Seventh street,
below Arch street, with the date 1837.
In the centre of the window a pait view of
the present church, as in the course of erec
tion, with the date 1870. In the apse, behind
the pulpit, there will be Live large windows of
two lights each. These it is designed to fill
with grisaille glass, with scrolls bearing texts
of Scripture, the general tone of the glass
being quiet, with green predominating. In
the aisles there are nine two-light windows, of
good size. Five of these have been engaged
to be filled with appropriate glass for private
memorials. It is expected that the whole
nine of these windows, and some othersinaller
openings, will be thus tilled ? as private me
morials.
There will also be_spaces for :marble_ tablets
against the wall as memorials of another kind.
The pulpit will be placed upon the radial
point of the apse, and is to be a handsome and
elaborate structure of polished marbles. Be
bind-th e-pulpitand - running - around -- the - apsewill be a series of stalls or seats for ministers
and elders. From the top line of these seats
it, the height of the sills of the apse windows,
it is designed to face the walls with bright col
ored matOlica tiles.
The passage, between the pews will be laid
with ornamental tiles. The pawing will be of
oiled black walnut,properly upholstered. The
seats will provide for about IZO persons,allow
ing - 20 - inches in - -width for eaeh.
- - -
The Building Committee is composed of the
following gentlemen : Dr. Hodge, Theodore
Cutler, Esq., Dr. H. Lenox Hodge, Charles F.
ilaseltine, Esq . . and Alexander Lesley, Esq.
The church is being erected from the de
signs and under the superintendence of Mr.
Henry Augustus Sims, Architect, assisted in
the practical oversight bf the work by Mr.
John McClure. Mr. William Armstrong is
the contractor for the mason work, the con
tracts for the other portions of the work not
having been yet made. It is expected that the
congregation will be able to worship in the
church about Jelin:try, 1871.
