FIRST VISIT OF THE LORD MAYOR TO
THE METROPOLITAN CHURCH, MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
—Yesterday being the first Sunday after the election of
Mr. O'Connell to the office of Lord Mayor, of Dublin,
his Lordship attended at the Metropolitan Church at 11
o'clock, where a. pontifical high mass was solemnised on
the occasion by his . Grace the Most Rev Dr. Murray,
ArchbishOp Of Dublin. , The Lord Mayor came in his
state carriage, _Which was used for the first time, and
was drawn by two greys. The servants wore green and
gold, of Irish manufacture, supplied by the Messrs. Dil-
lon, of Parliament-street. As his Lordship passed
through the streets he was followed by an im-
mense and accumulating multitude of persons, who
cheered him, as we venture to say no Lord Mayor of Dub-
lin was ever cheered before. The crowd in Marlbo-
rough-street and its vicinity was so great, it was with
diffi.:ulty a large body of foot police, aided by some of
the force on horseback, could preserie a passage. The
interior of the splendid edifice was densely crowded from
a very early hour in the morning. His Lordship arrived
at eleven o'clock, and, on ascending the steps of the
church, he divested himself of his robes of office and
cocked hat, both of which were taken by his servant
into the chapel house, where they remained until
his Lordship's "return from the service. lie was
received at the door of the church by the Ve-
nerable and Reverend J. Hamilton, the Rev. Messrs.
Doyle and Milley, and conducted to the seat prepared
for him in front of the altar. A portion of the sanctuary
(at either side of the Lord Mayor), was appropriated
specially to the aldermen and town councillors; of whom
the following were present:—Aldermen Sir John Power,
Bart., Patrick Gardiner, Peter Purcell, Egan, Luke
Butler ; and Town Councillors Michael Staunton, Kir-
