Over this is placed the ermines of silver tisane, completely covered with gold embroidery, edged with massy gold fringe. At the end is a handsome fringe about six inches deep, and over this is put the Dalmatiati robe, which is made ergots', with the rose, thistle, and eagles, woven in their proper colours. The feet ensemble is most niagnificeut. This is the dress in which his Majesty is anointed, and it will therefore remain in the Abbey atter the ceremony. After the ceremony of crowning, his Majesty will put on the imperial purple surcoat and robe, made and ens broiderbd in every respect like the crimson robe,alla then the procession will return to the Hall in the same order in which it went to the Abbey.

The account of the eurociattuu of James 11. is the must minute iiarqitive on that subject that exists.—The crooning of illacassitar .was performed on so extended and maguiliceni a scale, st a writer ou this subject, i, 1761, observes, it raw q u . iallit W. dcsigued fur Ili- model ui all future euromitiomi, a accordingly, by tine King's ex press command, was rec Lin the anima pompous umnger, which has been followed it very little satiation in the vvrial coronations since., ' • 411 m course of ihori , • valuable researches, buisever, iM . • iteceotty I.iiitil place, as the contents 'if the ciste p• haunt and an iutetesting ma miscript ace tof UN aallua urjallieS I. an. dl•CO 'reed a few dap. since. 1 gives, a hat %AS ranch wanted, some det ,ifs u.s the subject u ciatume. It was immediately laid befiirc Lord Sidaiuuth, a lao forwarded the curious ma insicript to the coionatiou cuciscuissiimees. A satirical poem has just appeared under the title of " My Note Book, or Skekhes from the Gallery of' St. Stcpken's"—Otir readett, doubtlz'ss remember, a work of extraordinary genius and ability, entitled " The Rejected Addresses" in which the style of the living writers was admirably imitated, and we ' think " My Note Book" abounds with equal point. It is from the pen of a gentleman, who is attached' to one of the daily papers as a parliamentary re porter, and-none but a gentleman accustomed as he is to the manners of the different members, could have so faithfully * pourtrayed them. We may be allowed a momentary digression from the immediate subject of our observation to allude to the qualifi cations necessary to form a good parliamentary re porter.—ln the first place, nature must have been lavish to him mentally and corporeally—his percep tion must be correct—his ear and eye quick—and his constitution of such power as to enable him to endure the privation of sleep,by night, frequently for weeks together—his education Amid have been l a liberal, and his clasical acquitemen xtensive—as to a perfect knowledge and practice . tenography; though necessary, it is of to minori portancc as to scarcely deserve mention. We ve thus di gressed for the sake of enabling our readers properly to estimate the character, and acitirements of a class of laborious members of society to whom the lovers of a newspaper are incalculably indebted— but to return to My Note Book—of which the least praise, is not, that its author appears to have exer cised a degree of political impartiality that is really astonishing-4n his preface he says " I have seen enough of Tories, Whigs, and Radicals, to make me reject the opinions on which they advance their respective claims to constitutional purity"—and he has followed up this declaration, by an equality of ridicule levelled at all parties—it is with much plea sure we perceive from the " FINIS pro tern," that we arc likely to be again delighted by his pen— and we now proceed to give a few extracts, prentis ing—that if we did not thiuk it unfair to the Au thor, we believe we should please all classes of our readers by continuing them, till we had copied the whole book. The following debate is supposed to take place on the presentation of a petition, (com plaining of the Milan Commission) from Coventry, by the wot thy member for that city. A DEBATE. HESE shall I now by prejudice unsway'd, The slave of none in politics who trade, Describe the doughty senatorian fight, Which called forth all the formidable might Of fierce opponents, never known to lag When urg'd by P.:-r, or provok'd by B-ggc. The theme inspires ; lot l'-t-r in his place Displays the volume of his ample face, And shows an index„-what shall be my rhyme ?- A country clock that " takes no note of time," E'en such a face displays to public view, To prove the works inside are never true. With parchment roll soon on the floor he's seen, The ditunthas champion of his injur'd Queen : His wig awry, his fists inflicting blows To shake the table under Dyson's° nose. Yet warmer still he waxes while he reads • labotir'd list of C-st-r-gh's misdeeds, bent up from Coventry his seal to prove, lie talks of motions, W-ls-nt cries out " moon !" lie swells, he tiaims, impatic:it for debate, Fly whining KAN protrudes his powder'd pate; M bile irons the bench, where W.,.4b-f-rce and Co. Their saintly pates in meek seclusion skew, A sidelong glance he casts, but to descry A stupid scowl from P-t-r's stupid eye. l'-t-r proceeds resistless in his course: P.st-r is checed-he raves, till he gets hoarse ; In vain to order does 1/c-k M-t-a rise, So D-c-k sits down, and Pat-r still defies All interruption, v:11 d e the Sp -r bland In accents mild gives him to understand No breach of order yet had taken place ; -" I'm sure, (says l'-t.r, standing near the mace, And looking most complacently at 1)-c-k,) I'd be the last against the house to kick :.-( a laugh.) But language now, sir, cannot be too bold, The hone,t truth is now what must be told; I'll let it out the nuttier I'll not mince, I'll make a lase administration wince.
