! Gloria in Excelsis, and receiving the bene-
diction of the bishop, adjourned sine de.
The Montpelier Journal says of the
conservation of Bishop Bissell:
| 1t was by far the most imposing reli-
gious ceremonial ever performed in this
state; there was an utter absence OF
meaningless form or ceremony the whole
was simple, yet deeply affecting and the
large audience could not fail to be pro-
foundly impressed by the Christian ear.
nestness and devotion of the officiating
bishops and clergy.
The sermon from Colossians iv:5 "Walk
in wisdom towards them that are without
redeeming the time"-was most schol'
arly production. Bishop Cox demon
strated at some length the "abyssmar
difference between the Romish and Cath
olic Apostolic Church. He set forth il
rather vivid colors the influence which
the Romish Church was gaining in thi'
country, and warned his hearers of al
sects to be on their guard.
His address to the bishop elect wa
particularly happy, and was delivered
and received with deep emotion.
To which the Burlington Times adds ::
We are gratifed to know that the abb
sermon of the Bishop of Western New
York was requested for publication b
the convention, and that it will appear il
a few weeks.
On Wednesday evening Bishop BisseI
:. made short but earnest address on til
y subject of missions. He stated that b
thought the very first thing to be don
n after his conservation was to hold mi
