INSTALLATIONM OF THE
TER FIRST BISHOP OF
AN C .
Dr. Lee, the new Bishop of Manchester, ar-
rived in the city by express train, on Thursday night, about
eleven o'clock, from London, accompanied by his secretary,
and proceeded to the Palatine Hotel, near the cathedral.
Although the ceremony was fixed for eleven o'clock, yester-
day, the company began to assemble before nine to the
morning, and iucluded a great number of ladies.
The throne was a handsome temporwy erection on the
clothuth-side of the choir, affixed to a scree of crimson
at the head of the stalls, and wasn surmounted
by • canopy of carved oak tnricbed by pinnacles, as
nearly as possible in keeping with the older carved work of
the rolls, so much admired for teir richness. The back of
the choir or thtone was emblazoh ned with the arms of the

diocese.
The chair formerly occupied by the Bishop of Chester
Tiiiti to this city, then part of his diocese, was lilacs d on •
dais in front of the communion for the use of the bishop in
the fins instance.
The clergy of the diocese present, and • few ladies only, in
addition to the chaplains and choristers, were admitted
ithin the chair, which could bold no more than from 100 to
150 persons.
The powerful organ in the nave of the church com-
menced • voluntary, about twenty minutes before eleven
o'clock, and the Bishop of Manchester, the Dean and
Canons, entered the cathedral in procession by the south-
west door, advanced up the south aisle through the nave,
and entered the chapter-house. The scene in the church
at this moment was most exciting, potties scrambling in all
directions for • first view of the new dignitary, and the la-
dies occupying the upper north steps of the altar having
risen en their feet, so as to exclude all behind them from
• sighs. All eyes were directed towards the chapter-house,
when the doors re-opened about eleven o'clock, and front
thence were turned towards the western door of the
choir, so the procession again left the chapter-house sad ad-
vanced to that part of the edifice. Hislordship took his seat
on the chair before mentioned as having been placed is front
of the altar. The dean and chapter occupied seats on the
right of his lordship. The service used for the occasion was
what is termed full cathedral service, and this commenced
immediately. At the end of the morning service, and before
the litany, the Bishop came forward and petitioned in his own
name to be inducted into all the rights, privileges, authori-
ties and station of the office of a bishop of the new See of
Manchester. The Very Rev. the Dean put the interroga-
tions, asking if he " will to the utmost of his power defend
ell the rights, privileges, and immunities of tae see ;" and,
having received satisfactory answers, he then administered
the oath to that effect, the bishop repeating it word by
word after the dean. The dean and canons then ad-
vanced, and the dean taking the bishop by the right
hand, conducted him to the throne, where he received
the congratulations of the chapter. The dean and canons
next advanced follow communion in their white surplices,
and an anthemed, clearing ',hints the Bishop stood in
front of the throne, and was foe the first time seen by the
majority of the congregation lathe choir and its aisles. The
Dean read the serener of the litany usually recited by the
Ordinary. He also read the prayer for the High Court of
Parliament and the general thankegiving.
The Dean concluded with this prayer : "We return
thanks 0 God, for the reverend pastor who is at thin time
installed bishop of this church, and supplicate the Divine
Msieety that be may long continue bishop of this church
and diocese, providing by • happy government for its pro-
sperity, sod may so proceed that both be and the people
committed to his charge may In the end attain eternal life."
The Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Manchester intents
diately zoo and pronounced, in a loud and clear voice, from
the throne, the benediction.
Thus ended the ceremony of installation, which lasted
only an hour and a half.
His lordship afterwards proceeded to Whalley Range to
lay the first stone of a new church, to be dedicated to
