In the fall of 1852 a Home Missionary society for the city was orgapized by representatives from Wesley, Foundry, Union and McKendree stations. Rev. Mr. Coleman, who was employed asthe mis- stonary, Was urged by members of Wesley Chapel toestablish a mission school on Capitol Hill, but for the wantof a permanent place of meeting much of the work of the missionary was lost. In the spring of the following year Mr. Charles H. Lane, of Wesley Chapel, spent several Sundays In endeavoring to find a suitable place for a Sunday schoo¥, and finally Mr. Hanson Brown offered the use of @ two-roomed house on Massachusetts ave- nue, between $4 and 4th streets, The first meet- ing of the school was held here March 13th, 1 at which was present Mr. Lane, a mother an her babe, two boys and three girls. A formal or ganization took place on the following Wednes- lay night, (16th,) when twel\ ns Were pres- ne was el uperintendent. e Mission having dissolved, Wesley Chapel assumed the responsibility of theCapitol Hill work. On July 26th of the same year Rev. Jas. H. Brown organized a class of eleven persons, and on the first Sunday in August appointed as’ leader John R. Zimmerman, who found twelve persons assem- dled, but one of whom was a professor of religion. At the next class meeting five penitents asked “prayers, and after a sermon by Rev. J. H. Brown the same night, revival services resulted in eight conversions. Larger accommodations being neces- sary. Mr. Brown opened his house, and subse- quently the camp meeting belonging to Wesley Chapel was pitched. As winter approached Mr. Brown built a house large enough to accommo- date 100 persons adjoining his residence, and in October, 1853, 1t was occupied, the school increas- ing to over seventy before the close of the year, In December the fourth quarterly conference of Wesley Chapel appointed a committee TO PURCHASE A LoT and buildachurch. Early the following year a Portion of the lot, now occupied by the church, Was purchased at 15 cents per foot, and Rev. R. L. Dashiell having been appointed the junior Preacher at Wesley Chapel, with specific charge of Waugh, the work went on. Wesley Chapel Sunda: school having promised the $300 necessary to cou mence work, the plans of Mr. S. T. G. Mor- sell were adopted, and September 5th, 1854, the corner stone was laid by Bishop Waugh, assisted by Rev. Norval Wuson, the presiding elder. Rev. G. H Day was appointed pastor in March, 1855. and May 13th following the basement was dedicated, Rev. J. McK. Relley officiating. The membership had by this time increased to 43, and tLree additional class leaders were appointed. In January following the number was increased to ten. The Sunday school numbered over 150 pupils, with 5 officers and 16 teachers, and it now humbers about 500. Rev. Dr. R. R. H.

Yesterday Dr. Beall, one of the physicians to the Poor, Feported to Lieut. Johnson, of the second precinct, that a colored woman named Lucy Wil- Mas, living at No. 14 Temperance alley, between Tand U ani 12th and 13th streets, bad given birth to a child the previous day, and that nobody could tell what she had ‘done with It. Private Rhodes, who has been ‘an acting detective lately, Was put on the case, and imme- diately repaired to the house of the alleged mother, She denied that a child had_been born to her, and tried to throw the oflicer off with a rather plaust- bie story. He came to the conclusion that the woman Was lying, and pursued his investigation. ne ncighbors expressed the same opinion as the doctor, ‘and some of them declared that they had noticed 2 smell of burning flesh tssuin; from the rooms of Mrs. Willfains. About O'clock yesterday aftermoon Mr. Rhodes dis- covered “a cloth bag suspended in a closet, ‘The contents of the suck proved to be the body of a well-developed male child, Upon closer scrut'ny it was revealed tuat the back of the infant and its face were horribly burned, and that one of the ears Was partially burned off. She denied any knowledge of the infant or its fate, and said she had not been able to go down stairs, where the infant was found. The Woman 1s about 35 years of age, and ts married and has two children, both girls, aged seven and ten years. Her husband is a Sallor, and is away at sea. ‘The police ambulance was sent for and she was taken to the Freedman’s hospital, and a guard Was stationed over her to see that she did not escape, until she is well enough to be taken in custody by the police. The body of the infant was taken to the second pre- cinct station-house. THE INQUEST TO BE HELD TO-MORROW. Dr. Patterson directed that a jury of inquest be summoned for to-morrow at 11 o'clock. The woman Lucy Williams dentes that she has had a child recently. Two women—one living in the house and the other next door—say that the child was born on Thursday, and on the same day it was placed in the stove and the smell called their attention to the room. One cf them says she heard the rattle of the Mus on the stove, in which j thers tas a coal fre, and rapped for adinittunce, but the door was not opened for some 1c. en he di it i time. Thi they found nothing in the stove and they accused her of destroying the child. ‘The woman denied 4t, and said that they would never find out what ste had done.

HANDSOME HOUSES GOING UP—THE NEW “FLATS” BUILDING—THE RAPID INOREASE IN THIS STYLE OF BUILDING—OTHER IMPROVEMENTS. : ‘The erection of the new apartment building at the corner of 16th and H streets will be begun next month, and it will be the handsomest and most expensive building ever erected by private capital in this city. Every detail about the build- ing will be completed tn the best style of work- manship, and the estimated cost ts $800,000. This 4g independent of the cost of the ground, which Was purchased for $5 per foot, the highest price ever paid for land in this city. A number of New York capitalists are backing the enterprise, and Lieut. Paine, of this city, 1s also interested. The building will be six stories high, of a handsome, modern style of architecture, with towers, balco- nies and terraces, It will be constructed of brick, with brown stone trimmings, and will contain 19 apartments, Each apartment will consist of 10 Tooms of extra size, comprising a drawing-room, a Ubrary, a dining-room, five bed-rooms, a bath- Toom, kitchen, pautries, closets _and_store-rooms, besides a large hall.

Mr. Hornblower is the architect, ‘There is still another apartment building to ‘be erected in the extreme northwest end of the city, but the project 1s not well enough matured as yel to speak of it more definitely. THE IMPROVEMENT OF AN ENTIRE SQUARE. Within the past few years the square of ground between 8, T, 15th ard 16th strects has been greatly improved, and in ashort time it 1s prob- able that fine residences, although they may not be of the largest class, will cover the entire ground. The 16th street front is owned princi- pally by Gen. T. T. Crittenden, and he proposes this season to erect four dwellings on it, at least, which will cost about five thousand dol- lars each. The larger portion of the 1m- Poe have been made by Messrs. James ‘ovbing, Smith Pettit and James Dripps, who Some six years ago bought nearly the entire square, since have erected on the 8 street front fifteen fine houses, and on the 15th stroct front twelve others, all of which have been sold. ‘Then, at their own expense, they opened what 1s now ‘known as Blake street or Pierce Place, ‘They have erected on the south side of this street houses to cover the whole ground and are now en- gaged In erecting other houses on the opposite side of the street. Thus far they have expended in building and improving the square nearly 000, and with the amount which will be put in houses this year the total will be over $100,000. ‘Most of these houses have been built according to the plans of Mr. A. R. Duryee, architect, with special reference to the wants of moderate sized families, and while in them he has taken advan- tage of all the space, particular attention has been ald to the ventilation, the drainage and_plumb- Ing particularly being of the very best arrange- ment.
