No Sove- reign ever possessed in a higher degree the vette ! ration and affection of his subjects, and their grief for his loss is only abated by the unhappy in,slady ehich has precluded his Majesty front directing the measures of his during ihe nine latter years of hi• glorious reign.

The extraordinary serenity of the weather seemed an auspicious omen to the com mencement of the reign of our illustrious Mo narch, and had collected together an immense' concourse of people round the Palace and streets adjacent : the wi:ldows of the houses were filled with elegantly-dressed company to see the pro cession, and hear the proclamation of his ALIJes- TY, King of the United Kingdom of Great Bri tain, &c. There were also assembled, Sir Natha niel Cotiant, the Chief Magistrate of the Police, with .a numerous assemblage of Police-officers, the gentlemen porters, the livery -servants in their state liveries, and the porters at the gates, with their grand sashes and staffs.

Nicoll, Mr. Wellesley Pole, Mr. Beckett, the Lord Chancellor, who appeared in his full robes, holding the Seals of Great Britain in the State Purse, and the Vice-Chancellor, &c. &c. Precisely at 12 o'clock, a Royal salute was fired in St. James's Park, announcing the accession of George IV. to the Throne of England. At the same time, the above distinguished personages having assembled under the portico of the grand entrance to the Palace, and being all uncovered, Sir Isaac .Heard, the Garter-King-at•Arurs, ap peared in the full dress of his office, on the right of his Royal Highness the Duke of York, holding his official staff and the Proclamation agreed upon by his 111aiesty in Council ou Sunday, which he read aloud, and ihe concluding sentence of " God save the Kirig" was heartily repeated by the Royal and distinguished personages surrounding him.— Sir Isaac Heard is now 90 years of age, and it is a remarkable circumstance, that this venerable Gentleman acted in his official capaci►y at the funeral of George IL, and also at the Proclama tion and Coronation of George 111. Immediately aster the reading of t he Proclan►ation , the trumpets And trombones, to the number of '2O, played the " Jubilee M rch."

Many of the Nobility and Gentry begl to take'their stations round t h e ste p s o f the gr. 01,. entrance of Carlton-house. Th e v i ew a t t!l" time was gristod and impo'sing in the extreme, peciatly when the eye was directed over the eU r vated spate before Carlton-house. The vatic.' gated colours, the fineness of the day, the sof shining at this period with peculiar brilliagqi the arrival of the Royal Dukes and the Nobili t y in their carriages ; all contributed greatly increase the general effect. The crowd in 1 )311 . mall by half past I I became immense, but all prq.;' ceeded with the utmost tranquillity.

Sir Isaac Heard, the venerable Garter King at Arms, then stepped forward and SW. dotted himself in the eew re of the interesting group collected around the grand entrance.- -- 7 Those about him being uncovered, Sir Isaac Heat proceeded to read the Proclamation.
