No person was admitted without a ti}tCet; and every necessary arrange- mint was made and observed to prevent confusion. The interior of the churcli is lightsome, spacious, and commodious ; and is fitted up in a very tasteful style, combining clegance and simplicity. The I tones of the organ are peculiarly fine, and were done ample justice to by the execution of Mr. Adams, wlho opened it. It afforded a suitable accompaniment to the delightful singing of Illr. Goulden .Mr. hawes, and the yeung gentlemen of his Alajesty's Chapel Royal. At about eleven o'clock, the Bishop arrived, attendel by his chaplain, and was receivetd at the church-door by the surrogate, the registrar, the vicar, churchwardens, &c.; and being conducted by them into the vestryvToom, his lordship having there put on his episcopal robes, proceeded from thence to the communiotn table, where the vicar presented to him the petition of the parishioners, praying his lordslip to consecrate the church. The petition having been read by the registrar, the Bishop, in compliance with its prayer, proceet(letivith the consecration; andwalkedin procession, attended as betfre, downi the middle aisle, and returned the same way, repeating alternately with the clergy the 24th Psalm. The surrogate then prcsented the Bishop with the deed of conveyance, after whinch his lordsthip pronounced an address to the congregation, and offered up some prayers ; after which the surrogate read the sentence of consecration ; which the bishop having signed and pro- mrulged, his lordship commaanded it, together with the petition and deeds, to be registered among the muniments of the oflice.
