The Ehiscohak Conpenfion recently hcid
in the city of New York, is said to have been
the largest assembly of the kind that has
ever convened in this country 1T was visit
ed BY the Right Rev. Bishop Croes, OF
New Jersey, and the Right Rev. Bishop
Brownel, of Connecticut The number OF
clergy who were present as members or VS.
itors, was between so and 80. and the lay
delegates about the same number. Among
the most interesting aud affecting incidents
of the convention, was the meeting between
Bishop Hobart and his clergy, and the lay
representatives of his diocese. Under such
circumstances of deep interest and feeling,
the Bishop delivered an address to the con,
vention, which was heard with great and
lively attention. A committee, consisting
of the Rev. DR.. Reed, the Rev. DR.. II. U.
Onderdonk, the Rev. Dr. Wainwright,
Richard Harrison. Esq. James Einmot, hsqr.
and the Hon. VIM. A. Ducr, was appoint
ed to draft and report resolutions respon-
sive to these Of the Bishop; aud the rcsou-
tons, as reported, were adopted by the CON
vcntion without dissenting voice. The adj
dress and resolutions express an ardent and
pure religious love and patriotism Oh the
one hand, and a just and sensible apprrcla-
tion of them aud Of the virtues with which
they are accompanied, on the other.
