place in the Cathedral of the Metroplitan See, the

in 1848. His predecessor—Dr. Howley—occu-1

Soon after 11 o'clock the doors of the .certhedral

cathedral body assembled in the cloisters for
the purpose of forming the precession, which
they did in the following order :--Sehooastms,
King's scholars, grammar-tauter of choristers!,
choristers, lay clerks, minor canons . auditor ,aind
surveyor. At the same time Des; Alford, the
canons, and six preachers met in the audit-room.

thronisation of the archbishop; which was produoed
by Dr. Travers Twins, the vicar -general; and meld
by him in the presence of thlretpdtular body. The
archbishop, who was the guest of the dean, with
the attendant bishope--tbe Bishop of London, the
Bishop of Oxford, the Bishog of Rochester, d the
Bishop of Lincoln—were then -conducted by the
dean and canons to the . cloisters, whets they
joined on to the prooessien. The clergy, many
of them wearing the Oxfortf hood, headed the pro-
cession two and two, entering the ehurch by the
west door. In this manner they advanced up the
nave to the choir doors, where they filed off left
and right, leaving a passagein die middle for the
archbishop. Archdeacon Harrison, the deputy of
ithe archdeacon, Dean Alford, and the Res. Mr.
Stone, vice-dean, conducted the archbishop and the

his seat on the right of the altar, the Bishop of
London on the left.; the Bishop of Oxford and
the Bishop of Rochester being on the same side as.
the archbishop, and the Bishop of Lincoln on dm-
same side as the Bishop of London. ,
The choristers, on reaching the west door, betan
chanting the 121st and 122nd Psalms, " I Was
glad when they said unto me, .we will go into the
house of the Lord," and " I will lift up mine eyes
unto Thee." This chant had`very pleasaug effect,
and was followed by the Hall*jah Chorus.
The clergy having taken theWplacee, Archdeacon
Harrison, the dean, and vice-dean, proceeded to
their stalls, and the servicenf ' the' 'day was begun

After the first lesson Archdeacon Harrison left
his stall and conducted the archbishop, attended by
the dean and vice-dean, to the throne, when the
vicar-general presented the mandate of enthronisa-
tion to the archdeacon's deputy, and requested him
to proceed. The mandate laving been read by the
Rev. Mr. Finch, the auditor, Archdeacon Harrison
proceeded to read the induction as follows :

Master of Arta, Archdeacon of Canterbury, do induct,
install, and enthrone you, the Most Reverend. Father in
God Charles Thomas Loogley, Doctor in Divinity, Lord
Archbishop of Canterbury, into the Archbishopric and
archiepiscopal dignity of the See of Canterbury, into the
real, actual, and corporal possession of the same, with all
and singular the nghta, dignities, honours. pre-emineecea,
and appurtenances thereof, and the Lord preserve your
going out and your coming in, from this time forth for ever-
more. Amen.
The archbishop remained seated in the throne
while the dean, vice-dean, and the archdeacon's
deputy returned to their stalls. and the service pro-
oeedod with the " Benedicite " to the end.
At the conclusion of the service the archdeacon's
deputy again conducted the archbishop, attended
by the dean and vice-dean, to the marble chair of
St. Augustine, where the archbishop being seated
the same form as before was repeated. They then
proceeded in the same order to the dean's stall, in
which the archbishop being seated, the deputy

Charles Thomas Longley, Doctor in Divinity, in this @tall or
seat, in sign and token of your taking and having real 'ad
actual possession of the see of Canterbury, and of all the
rights and privileges thereof.
King's Te Deum in D was then sung. That done,
the dean read the suffrages, the choir chanting the
answers :

O Lord, save Thy servant, our Bishop,
Ans.—Who putteth ins trust in Thee.
Send him help from Thy Holy Place,
ins.—And evermore mightily defend him.
Let the enemy have no advantage against him,
Ass.—Nor the wicked approach to hurt him.
