tbs BISHOP OF LONDON PREACHING IN AN OMNI-
BUS YARD "A remarkable gathering of the men
bled on Sunday evening, Sd of April, in carriage
shed at the depot in Upper street, 1slington. The
largest building in the yard, specially prepared
for the purpose, WAS crowded to excess by a most
attentive auditory. During the past four years q
religious service has been conducted on every
Sunday morning, for the benefit of these men, by
a clergyman resident in the parish. At eight
O'Clock on Sunday night the service commenced
with hymn, which was very heartily suug, then
followed the ltany, read by the honorary chaplain.
Another hymn having been sung, the bishop read,
in clear and emphatic manner, the 9th chapter
of st. Johns Gospel, aud then preached tor half
an hour from the l4th verse. The sermon was
admirably adapted to the occasion, and was lis
tened TO throughout with breathless attention.
