New Chapel , Stamford Street . —The Trustees of the late Chapel in Princes Street , which * was sold under the Act of Parliament for the improvement of Westminster , have nearly completed an elegant chapel on the south side of Stamford Street , Blackfriars * Road . Having
failed to obtain a suitable piece of ground for the re erection of the Chapel in Westminster , they were induced to build on the present spot , in consequence of an application from the congregation late of St . Thomas ' s , whose lease the Governors of St . Thomas ' s Hospital had refused to renew , and who will now unite
themselves to the Princes Street congregation . The New Chapel , it is expected , will be opened for divine worship on Sunday , the 17 th of this month ( August ) .
