quate to accommodate the thousands who
had assembled. The reception was one of
unusual splendor.
Nearly all the other clergymen of this
city and vicinity, number of Bishops and
many prominent laymen were present. An
arch was built outside the main entrance,
covered with evergreens and adorned with
flags. The altar was resplendent with lights
and flowers The entire affair being prOba-
bly, the most imposing of the kind either
civil or ecclesiastical, that has ever taken
place in this city.

the house of Dr. Mason, on Forty-fourth
street. Mrs. McCroskry is with him. The
Bishop declined to see any one last evening
