INSTALLATION of Mr BISHOP of BARBADOES.

We published on Saturday, from the Jamaica Gar.ethr
an interesting description of the installation of the Bishop
of that diocese. From a lately 'received number of the
Barbadian, we extract the following account of the instal-
lation of the Bishop of Barbadots. It will be read, we are
acre, with great satisfaction by all those who feel any in..
terest in the welfare of our West Indian Colonies :
" On Saturday morning, the 29th of Jan unry, at 11 o'clock, the
Bishop left his Majesty's yacht Herald, under a salute from the
shipping, and landed at the upper stepping stones of the wharf,
where he was received 1w a guard of honour of the 39th Regiment.
Four companies of the Royal Regiment of Militia. under the com-
mand of Major Walcund, were also there by order cf his Excel-
lency the Governor, and formed a line on each side of the street,
from Trafalgar-square lending to the Church, through which the
Bishop, attended by neatly the whole of the clergy of the island,
with the ißev. Archdeacon Parry, the Rev. 31r. Adam, and the
Rev. Mr. Chadelton '(Rector of St. George's, Tortola). walked to
Saint Michael's Church. The procession having arrived at the
church, the Rev. Mr. Garnett. our Rector, conducted the Bishop
to the chair prepared for him on the right aide of the altar, his
Lordship's Secietary, Mr. Coleridge, read aloud the Royal Cont.
mission, and the certificate or the Bishop, having been duly con-
secrated—at the conclusion of which the Rector ushered his Lord-
ship into the stall, tined up some time ego by the provident cart
and ettention of the Vestry for his reception. The merning service
was then read by our Lecturer, the Rev. Mr. Kieg, with which
were joined the Prayers for the 29:11 of Jemmy, berg the nnniver.
airy of our gracious King's accession to the threne of his ancestors.
We are disposed to consider this u a peculiarly happy coincidence
of events ; anu so powerfully were our feelings excited on the in.
teresting occasion, that, independent of our joy at string a hope,
for tnany anxious months ardently cherished, at last realized, of
seeing our own Bishop, we batted the double celebration of the
daeas an auapicious omen for our country. An immense crowd of
persons, who filled not only the pews, but the aisles of the church.
were gratified. and we are sure we use no unfit word when we say.
they were delighted, to hear the Comniunion Service read by the
Lord Bishop. It is voice, and his manner of rending the Command-
ments, and the beautiful Prayers from the Service for the King':
accession were, beyond comparison, line and impres we. Notelet
standing the vast assembleee of persons of every descriptioi ,
the instant that the Ilithop's deep-toned commanding voice wi
heard, the most ptrfect silence prevailed ; and, when lie pronounced
the blessing„ we•ito believe it penetrated the heart o. every the
present—every countenance indicated a tVelif.g. which words would
fail to describe. When we think on the affectionate earnestness,
thepious fervour, with which he gave utterance to the a milt,. we
do, indeed, feel a conviction that it was with all hi: heart at.d soul
that this Minister o!' the Gospel invoked the bless.ng of the Most
High, the Triune God, the adorable Trinity, up ea the people o'
this land. And, opt ! that we could, in the propheie spirit of tits
Patriarch, repent, t• Yes, and they shall be blesset ."
The following are the heads or the letters patent, creat-
ing the Bi;heritic of Jamaica. Those for Cie See of Bar-
badoos are prcelsr-ly similar—mOatis
