The preparations which are making for the Co ronation of the Emperor already call - the attention of the public to that great solemnity, which an nounces to the French a splendid and interesting spectacle. and will form a memorable epoch in their history. This consideration induces us to think that the following details will be found inte resting. OF THE CORONATION OF THE EMPEROR OF GERMANY. _ _ Though the Emperor's Coronation confers upon him no new right, yet it is a ceremony which ren ders his eled i“ai solemn and public. It is perform ed in the fol owing manners According to the Golden Bull, the coronation should take place at Aix hr Chapelle, but that is not always the case. When the time and place of the ceremony are fixed, the Eleaor of Mentz informs the magistrates of Aix and Nuremberg, who send, by their deputies, the Imperial regalia confided to their care; name ly, those of Nuremberg the golden crown of Char lemagne, the ring, the sceptre, the globe, the shoes and sword which an angel is said to have prese:ted to that monarch ; a long staff, a stole, or priest's habit, a hood and a girdle. Those of Aix la Cha pelle send a shrine covered with diamonds, in which are kept some of the blood of St. Stephen, the sword commonly used by Char!emagne ( which is now at Vienna), with its belt, and the New Testa ment in gold letters, made use of by that Emperor. On the day appointed for the . coronation, the spiritual eleaors, with the bishops and other eccle siastical officers, repair in the morning to the church, where the deputies of Aix and Nurem berg deliver the Imperial regalia into their hands, while the secular eleaors, or theit ambassadors, in habits of ceremony, accompany the Emperog from the town-house to the church. The Eleaor of Bavaria carries the globe, having, on his right, the Elector of Brandenbaugh, bearing the sceptre, and, on his left, the Eleaor Palatine, with the crown. Be hind them, and immediately preceding the Empe ror, walks the Eleaor of Saxony, carrying the imperial sword. IVhen the latter is present in per son at the ceremony, he carries the sword naked, and his hereditary marshal carries the sheath before him ; but when in his , absence, his marshal carries the sword sheathed. A moment before the Emperor arrives at the church, the ecclesiastical electors leave the sacristy, and go before him in procession, with the bishops, and other ecclesiastics, to the d9or of the church. The pavement of the streets through which the Emperor walks is covered with green cloth. He has scarcely passed, wen the people cut it to pieces and divide it among them almost tinder His Majes ty's feet. The Eleaor who is to perform the coro nation is dressed in his pontifical habits, with the mitre on his head, and the crozier in his hand ; the two other ecclesiastical eleaors wearing only their electoral dress. As soon as the r.mperor comes in sight, the officiating eleaor begins to sing Adj.do. rise, rtrwrainz ie leomine Dons;al; and after repeating the prayer Onruiposems sempiterwe Dent, he returns :u -warls the altar, and the two other Eleaors, placing themselves on each side of the Emperor, cantina him to lvs pew, where, having kne.el?cl down, the Elkicn s likewise take their places, still leaving the ' 1 imperial ornaments in the custody of the hereditary Acers '1 he Officiating Prelate he7ins the ceremony with th:: prayer, Domme taikLmf.T let gem, with the other usual pt ar.r. ; after which, Mass is CulebrAted. He than tAk..s off from the Emperor the Royal Mantle, and the two oth.l. Spiritual Ele!tors et-Indult him to the altar, where, lt...celing down on the highest step, the Chaplains sing the Litanies of the Saints, to toe verle. Ut nor &vita se thrawt. The Officiating Eleaor then contimics his prayers for the Emperor, which are answered by the choir. After this, the Emperor rises, and the Officiating EleCtor, with the mitre on his head, and the crozier in hti hand, puts six que , tions to him, in Latin, to which the Empe ror replies, ‘• Yes, I will." He then kneels down again, the Archbishop begins this prayer, " Lord, who at all times governest all kingdoms," &c and lilewise the following, " Lorl, cause the pen& to remain faithful to him." After thee: prayers, the Suffragans of the Officiating .Archbishop uncover the Emperor, to anoint him, and the Archbishop t.tkes the holy oil, saying, Psi icrwe—to which fol. lows the resporse, Et ern, sfririki 1.10. As he anoints the Emperor, the two outer Eleaors dry up the oil with cotton. The two Eaton then lead the Emperor to a cha pel, by the side of the choir, where are the ancient lmper.al garments brought from Nnremberg, and clothe him in the stole, sandals, &c. They then concha:A him back to his pew, somewhat nearer the a! tar. Upon this, the two Eleftots lay upon the al tar the sword of Chariemapas, brought from Aix ; and, at the same moment that they put it, drawn, into the Emperor's hands, the 9fficiating Pro Lite gives him his beneliai‘.n, saying, " Take that sward, by virtue, of this henediAion ; employ it for the defence of the Church of God, for which pur pose his goodness has destined it." Meanwhile the sword is put into the sheath, and the Temporal :,le fors, baying approach d, gird it to the Empe ror:s side. 'I he Archbishop then takes the ring, airier is laid upon the altar, and puts it on his fin ger, with the usual ishes. Then taking frran the altar the sceptre and globe, he likewise puts thi..n into his hands, the sceptre in the right, and the glnb•• in the left, pronouncing the helediaion, and ti e usual wishes. At the conclusion of this payer, the Emperor returns the sceptre and globe -to the Elec tor, whose office it is to carry them, and the Depu ties of Nuremberg throw over his shoulders the great Imperial Mande, made likes cowl ; upon which the three Spiritual Eleaors take the crown from the altar. and, all together, put it on the Emperor's head, the OlEsiating Prelate accompanying the ac tion with prayers and wishes; to which the choir replies, Amen. The Spiritual Eleaors then condui the Emperor to the altar, where he nails the usual oath in the Getman language ; after which be is cos.Juied back to his place, by the same Eleaors, Mass is continaed, and, at the offertory, the hmpervr, whit the sceptre ant globe in has hands, makes an offer ing of I . piece of gold. As owes as the Emperor goes to the altar, the crown is oaten of, and replaced when he comes from it.

After the mays, he is candua e j by the three spiritual ele.flors, followed by all tile bishops, and paeceJed by the secular elcB(4.s to raised seat. There he is placed in a chair, ere stirred -for that purpose, in,:ead of Charleniagae's, which is as Aix. the offiviAting prelate yortmutincmg these words: "Take and keep pnssession of the place,". &c. As soon as the prayer is fit.isbed, they to cha unt a solemn7r Delon, accompanied with J: urns, trumpets, and kettle-drums, and followed by a !i• charge of artillery and musketry. Ilia Imperial Majesty, still- remaining seated, then receives the congratulations presented him by the Eledor of Mentz, in the name of all the rest; upon which the Electors retire, and the officiating Archbishop re sumes hi.; eleBoral habits. Meanwhile, the Empurnr, attended by ths so':u ar eletors, knights, some co pits, or nohies the empire, whom he touches with the sworLi l le, then returns• the sword to the Arch marshal, dcsceods from his seat, aad returns to his pew. A canon of the collegiate church of Aix-la Chapelle, there preseuts himself before the Empe ror, and having represented that every Emperor is received a canon of that church, hir humbly re quests His Majesty to take the oath, which the Ern-. peror pronounces in Latin. Instead of the gift for merly made to the church of Aix; of part of the, furniture and ornaments employed for the corona tion, he makes it a present of five or six golden Ratios ; two pipes of the best wine for the church o f o ur Lady, and one pipe fur the Abbey of St. A delbert. The Emperor and the clelors give a written do cument, purporting, that if the coronation take place in any other town, that circumstance cannot be in any respe9 injurious to the rights of Aix-La-Cha. peile. The ceremony being concluded, the com pany return to the town-house, where the electors, before dinner, perform the following ceremony : The Elecctor of Saxony, descending from the town house, mounts a horse, and rides full speed to a large heap of oats on the ground. lie fills a large silver measure; he gives it to the Count of PapFen heim, and returns amidst the sound of drums, and kettle-drums ; the remainder of the oats being left at the disposal of the populace. The Elector of Bavaria then comes on horseback, and proceeds to the place, where an ox is roasted whale. He takes a piece, prepared for the Empe ror, carries it into the great hall, amidst the sound of drums and kettle-drums, and presents it to his Majesty. The ox is disposed of in the same man ner as the oats. The Elector of Brandenburgh then rides round the square, holding a silver ewer, and preens his Majesty with water to wash his hands. The Eleant Palatine, after proceeding about ten or twelve paces on horseback, throws pieces of gold and silver coin among the people. The Emperor and the Eleants then seat them selves at table. in the following manner: In the middle, near the window, is the Emperor's table, elevated three steps; on the right are the four tables of the Eleftorof Mess. the king of Bohemia, the Eleaer of Bavaria, and the EleCtor of Brxnden burgh ; and on the left are those of the Bleaor Cologno, the Eleaor of Saxony, and the Eleaor Palatine. Another is placed in the ccotre of the hail, ejnicsite the k:naperor, for the kle.aor cf Fr.ves. FORTIFIC4TIONS UPON THE COAST OF KENT. Under the South For:land, at St. Margarite's Bay, there is a battery, with a party of troops stationed. For three miles westward, the cliffs are inaccessible ; then comes I)over Castle, with a very formidable array of artillery, commanding the shore, the Ca tle itself having been very strongly fortified on the land side. In the cliffs of the Castle and on the Beach are batteries ; there is a battery at the North Pier, and a battery at the South Pier, together with a strong battery and fort westward of the town. For upwards of twenty years it has been recommen ed to fortify the western heights above Dover. and that plan is now carrying into execution. There is a long extended line, it is true, but that, though very strong, is merely an oat-work. The main de fence, the strong hold, the Citadel, if we may so call it, is at the summit of this line on the highest ground near Dover; and if it be commanded,which we doubt, by an opposite range, at least. it must be allowed to be the best situation that could be found, as it is the highest ground in the neiglinurhood. It has long been the opinion of military r is en, that as this height commands Dover Castle, and much of the surrounding country, unless it were well fortified, Dover could not be secure. This important work is now carrying into effed with the utmost rapidity.— From Dover westward to Folkstone, the cliffs are again inaccessible. At Folkstone there is another battery : two miles farther is Sandgate Castle, whore there are some artillery ; and half a mile bather is a strong battery under Shorneliffe, the guns of which are nearly levet with the sea, and mint i mmediately across the high road, so that it is impossible to pass without seeing, without almost tinning foul of them. Two miles further, at Hythe, there are batteries u and also at Dungeness. In the fifteen miles limit Ssoith Foreland to tiphe, we find about ni le batteries, exclusively of I)over Castle, and the fottifieJ heights to the westward of Dover. Along the coast of Kent and Susses, there is not a hollow for a landing place, but there is a battery; Nacre is not a height, but there is a signal-post. Perhaps it would be desirable to have more art ll:ry and artillerymen; and we make no doubt the defence of our coasts by batteries might be greedy im proved ; but no on: important point se r teas to have been wholly overlooked. The batteries on the French coasts are certainly far superior to our own; but the service is very different. They wish to reach far to sea, to prows% their cruisers; we do not wish to fight, from land, ships at a distance on the sea; we wish to protect the beach against landing. In a few hours, twenty thousand men. must of them regulars, the rest militia. can be brought to any part of the coasts of Kent; and in twenty-four hours that number can be doubled, ex clusively of volunteers. rcz. - • r il•11.110901:011-STIMIT. . - • CUU,NtEIIi, IT it14,04:f. %RM.
