THE CHURCHES. 

THAT Charlotte is a moral community is demonstrated by her list of churches. All denominations are represented, and all the different religions denominations work and live together in peace and harmony. Our illustrations of the principal churches will serve to show that Charlotte is justly entitled to the pride which she takes in the architectural beauty, of the imposing appearance, and the spacious ness of her temples of worship. Following is a list of the churches in the city: First Presbyterian [2]; Second Presbyterian [3]; Tryon St. Methodist [4]; Church Street Methodist; Graham St. Chapel, Presbyterian; Tryon Street Baptist [5]; St. Peter's Episcopal [6]; St. Mark's Lutheran [7]; St. Peter's Catholic [8]; Associate Reformed; St. Martin's Chapel, Episcopal; Salvation Army.

The list of churches for the colored people is: Zion M. E. Church; Wesley Chapel; Little Rock; First Baptist; St. Michael's; Ebenezer Baptist; Presbyterian.
