On Friday a meeting of the parish Milkers was held at the Committee-room of the Latimer Charity, for the porpose of arranging the sonde in which her *deny was to be re ceived, when it was agreed that the commands of her Ma jesty, as expressed by Mr. ifieroaimous, should be attended to with as much strictness as the convenience of her Moksly would permit. The only additional preparations agreed so be guide, were, to provide a state chair, covered with crim son cloth, with a hog-stool, ands table, also coveted with crimson cloth, which were ordered to be placed io Mr. Attwood's pew. The flooring of the pew was ordered to be covered with Torkey carpeting. The pews adj ' g that of Mr. Aftwood's were assigned for the accommodation of her Majesty's suite. These pews are all close to the pulpit, and her lll•jesty entered at the chancel door, which Is near est the road Wadies from limadeubargb-inuse. The seams from the outer gate was roweled wills..carpet ing, and a line was farmed on each side, to prevent inter ruption, by forty gentlemen, inhabitants of the hamlet, bearing white wands.

The following are the names of the ships of war : Admiral laird Coat, we O'Higgins..— SO guns 360 men i cavtain rosv. San Martin 64 ... 400 ... Captain Wilkutsoo.

Of the crews of these ships of war, one-third are En glish seamen, one-third are Chillians, and one-third marines. The military :orce accompany the expedition will amount to 5,600 men under the command of General San Martin, viz., the 4th, 7th, and Bth regi ments of infantry of the troops of Buenos Ayres; the regiments of grauaderos, casadures.. with 28 pieces of artillery, and the company of calietes, also of Buenos Ayres; the Id, 4th, and sth regiments of infantry, and the regiment of casadores, of the troops of Chili. The place of destination is understood to be Arica, a port to the Southward of Lima. This is by far the most twine rous and the best-appointed expedition eves undertaken by any of the Patriot Governments of South America,. and possesses the better prospect of success in the bold attempt that was meditated, from the previous know ledge obtained of the disposition of the population of that rich country to unite their own strenuous effects for the establishmetat of independence. It is known, too, that the Viceroy of Peru had become so circumscribed in his resources, that he had despatched a special and confidential messenger to the Spanish Gore ent, ea. pressing his doubts of being able to retain Peru in its submission unless more ellectual support was rendered by the mother country. The first Uitelligence of the nroceedings of this armament, which, if successful in its views, promises the most brilliant results to the trade of this country, will probably arrive by the way of la- A Gentleman has address] a letter to Alderman Wood, enclosing a draft upon his banker for 50 gui. ners, towt-ds a fund " for buNling a Royal Palace for her Majesty, at mica befitting the dignity of the Queen, the affection of her People, and their sym pathy in her sufferings, frum the first moment of her landing on the English shore L Feeling confi dent that a Fund to any amount required would (if sanctioned and supported by him) be subscribed with anparalleled rapidity." A Lady has also addressed a similar letter to him, with 100 guineas; and we doubt not that any sum adequate to such an object sni3ht speedily k raised : but we do doubt - of the propriety of such a measure. Is it fitting that Mi. nisters should be allowed to eva.lc the discharge of their duty by the subscription of private individuals? Neither Parliament nor the Nation will submit to this degradation. The Palaces and Funds provi. ded for the due maintenance of the Royal Family are ample (or may be made so), and they must not be misapplied to gratify spleen and malice. THE NATIONAL REGISTER BOXING.
