London, September 1. Last Friday afternoon the ceremony of
the dedication of the new built synagogue was performed, the
chief and other rabbis belonging to the Portuguese Jewish
nation, assisting; when the prayer for their Majesties was
pronounced by the chief rabbi in English, and followed by
Handel's Coronation Anthem, performed by a numerous band of
the most eminent musicians. The processions and other
ceremonies on that occasion in the synagogue, were
accompanied with several anthems and choruses by the same
performers.
