Br. Pitzer on the Meral and Spiritual Condition of the Sunday evening at the Central Presbyterian church, Dr. Pitzer made the following statements: “There 1s in our city, of churches and missions of all denominations, according to the last directory, 180. Twenty-five of these churches will seat on ‘an average 1,000 persons, this affords sittings for 25,000 people. One hundred and fitty-five churches will average 250 each, giving sittings for 38,750, which added to the 25,000 gives a total sitting ca- pacity at the same hour, of 63,750, But all of ‘these churches have as many as three, and some five services each Sabbath, and the congregations are different at these different hours, so thata fair estimate of church accommodations will at least double these sittings, when thedifferent congre- tions at different hours are considered; 80 we ve provision made by Boda But Ree 000 of our iniirm, cutldrens nurses and 50,000 15 deductéd from the Whole population 200,000, 1t leaves. 150,000 to be vided with church accommodations, and we Wve as shown above 127,500.
