His Royal Highness entered the House of Peers one minute before two o'clock, which was announced by a royal salute from cannon placed on the Lam beth shore. His 'Royal Highness remained in. the House exactly twenty-six minutes. The procession returned to St. James's Parace in the same order. His Royal Highness was cheered by the populace as he went in his private carriage to the Palace, and as he went and returned in the Royal prOcession. At an early hour the bustle in the streets leading to the House of Lords was considerable. At eleven o'clock carriages filled with elegantly-dressed females began to set down at the entrances of the avenues to the different offices belnging to theliouse of Lords, and the greatest exertions were made to obtain ad mission at that early hour. The dresses of the La- ' ,_ „ a • dies who graced the ceremony in the House of Peers, s to tsn 11.1.-ULU —e-- • A were extremely splendid, the head-dresses were beau tiful, and consisted chiefly of plumes of white fea thers springing from pearl ornaments, which were elegantly placed. All the windows in Whitehall and Parliament-street were filled with spectators. St. James's Park, and indeed the whole line of the pro cession, was crowded by persons of every description; the utmost order prevailed—an occasional shout was given at the approach of his Royal Highness, who acknowledged the tribute by repeated obeysanees. Nothing very particular occurred in the crowd ex cept the ordinary pressure usually felt on such occa sions some casual strictures upon 'politics were of course made in the throng, and an Orator in front of the entrance to the House of Lords' descanted to the favoured few who had the felicity of forming a circle around him, very freely upon what he laid down as the cause and effect of the present system of Ministers. He appeared to delight his auditors by ridiculing the idea that the Public had any interest in the duraticn of the adjournment of Parliament. " Six weeks is their time," said he ; " can't they make it six Months ? They may as well, for whit have they, been doing for the six months they have been in there—(point ing to the Houses of Parliament)? They gave us new taxes—they raised the price of beer—and, when they meet again, if we have any bread, they'll lay their fingers on that too, with another Corn Bill." The Orator laid great stress on the sort of Reform which, according to his view, could alone save the country—it was radical enough. " Measures and not men" seemed to be his favourite maxim, for he dealt his strictures pretty equally about the charac ters of public men of every description, sparing none, from Mr. CANNING on the one side, to Sir ( . FRANCIS Butturre on the other. The President Jef.the Board of Controul and the Worthy Baronet were alike indifferent to him. The latter he face tiously described as " a sly dog;" and as there was nothing Parliamentary in the language in which he drew what he conceived to be the character the former, we forbear to touch upon it.— qo Lord CASTLEREAGH he openly avowed hostility, slid then by a strange transition his tongue fell foul 'had the Snit KIR of the House of Commons, whom he had reason to believe would soon succeed the LORD CHANCELLOR in the other House, on account of his political sentiments. The Lawyers came in for a full 'share of his approbrinm—and the Judges weie not ,et all omitted in his allusions to the cause of the min the country—" there they go," said the orator, in the coaches we give them, with their big wigs, after passing sentence on the people" (pointing to Mr. 1 1 STEPHEN and Mr. JEKYLL, the Masters in Chancery, who were driving to the-House to perform the duties if their office). The orator at last became hoarse with his vociferation, and perhaps a little uneasy at. the interference of one or two constables who were attracted to the spot by his noise—he then crossed over towards Poet's-comer,-but appeared not to derive any additional inwiraticm from his vicinity to the shrine of the Muses, and was at length left to his own ' .
