His Majesty then breakfasted, and afterwards proceeded to his chamber, near the South entrance into West minster Hall.—At twenty minutes past 5 o'clock a crowd of ladies were admitted by Peers' orders, and Peeresses, who were then struggling for ad mittance. assembled about the same time 3 and vested them selves in their rockets, in the House of Lords, and the chambers adjacent. The Judges, and others of the long robe, together with the Gen tlemen of the Privy Ctiamber, Esquires of the 'body, Sergeants at Law, Masters in Chancery, Aldermen of London, Chaplains having dignities, and six Clerks in Chancery, being all in their proper habits, assembled at the, places of which notice had been given, where the Officers of Arm arranged- theM according to their respec tive classes, four i n a ran k, placing the youngest on the left, and then conducted them into the the ceremony, ranged themselves from the top to the bottom of the Hall, the great Officers of State nearest the Throne. On the left or the King • the Dukes of York and Sussex and the Prince Leopold took their seats, and on the right the Dukes 'of Clarence and Cambridge, with their train bearers. The festivities of the day commenced at one o'clock yesterday morning with the ringing of bells and firing of cannon. The streets shortly afterwards exhibited an animated scene. Con tinuous lines of carriages were seen advancing in perfect order along the prescribed routes, each side of which were thronged by an immense multitude in hpiiday attire, eagerly hastening to take possession of the places engaged, or to se cure positions which might command a glimpse of the splendid pageant.

The temporary boarding pfaced up each side of the Platform, some weeks ago, to prevent da mage, by indiscriminate visitors travelling over it day and night, was completely removed in the early part of the morning. ~Qn the removal of such boarding, the Platform presented a lively and finisho'd appearance. The railing on each side of it was covered with purple cloth, and the flooring was covered to the extent of 16 feet, leaving about a yard on each side uncovered, with the same sort of blue cloth. The awnings were drawn, but at short dis tances red lines were placed, by the . pulling of which command was had of them, to close or spread them as circumstances might require. To each line and pulley was allotted one man, with a particular dress, so that the most rapid change of the awnings could be effected., should the weather require any change in their position, while the addition of a staff enabled such man likewise to act as a constable. There were also placed, on each side of the Platform, along the whole range of it, men provided with pincers, hammers, &c. to repair any damage that might happen to the Platform, or whatever was calcu lated to imlide the progress of the Procession, and its attendant ceremonies. These men were also supplied with a like livery, with staves of office ; and they were sworn as constables. The flooring of the Platform is raised several feet (in some instances as much as four and five feet) from the roads ; and the side Platform is nearly two feet below the surface of the main Platform. Thus the view of what excited the greatest curiosity, was not intercepted by the means so judiciously arranged to preserve that regularity and order which so essentially contri bute to the effect of all ceremonies. CORONATION GALLERIES. The immense range of 'galleries in the fronts of houses in New Palace-yard, along the Ex chequer Offices and Chambers, over the Cham pion's Stables, in Parliament-street and square, in George-street, in St. Margaret's Church-yard, in the large spaces, on gardens and squares, be tween the Parliament House ' ' and Sessions House, it would be impossible to particularise. The magnitude of these accommodations, their uni formity and convenience, have excited the won der of the inhabitants of this great metropolis, and of thousands from all parts of the country, who have repaired to town solely with the view of witnessing the • preparations. All these gal leries underwent the strictest investigation, by surveyors appointed for the purpose ; so that all possible precautions to prevent accidents were adopted. WESTMINSTER HALL. The preparations within the Hall have on for mer occasions been fully described, and a toler ably correct notion may be formed by many of the main outlines of the arrangements there, to give effect to the ceremonies preceding, and the banquet following, his Majesty's Coronation. The coup d'wil was of the most pleasing and im posing character ; the galleries along each side of the Hall, the tower and turrets over the grand entrance, and the Royal platform and table were finished in the highest order. The new windows in the roof, and the recently-completed lantern upwards of 40 feet high on the centre of the ridge of the roof, with glazed windows all round, greatly improved the effect. From each of the angles formed by the ends of the hammer-beams in the roof, is suspended by a gilt chain a large splendid cut-glass lustre, with broad ornamented gilt rims and frames, containing three circles of wax candles, being between 40 and 50 in each lustre. The first and second galleries had the mattings and scarlet coverings completed only on Wed nesday. The royal box on the right, and the foroigners' box on the left side of the royal ta ble, are entirely lined with scarlet cloth, fes tooned in front, and ornamented with gold fringe. The Throne seat and the royal table attracted general admiration. With the exception of the large fluted columns, the royal seat and canopy are in the style of the throne in the House of Lords. The back is crimson velvet, with the royal arms embroidered on it, and the limits are decorated with gold ornaments. The canopy is square, with a raised and variegated gold cornice round. The centre displayed a splendid crown, underneath which are G.11:11 7 . Underneath the cornice is a crimson velvet valiance, separat ed into divisions, the lower portion of each divi sion being rounded with gold, while its centre is decorated with gold, embroidered, and raised ornaments illustrative of the military orders and of the emblems of the United Kingdom, the !lose, the Thistle, the Harp, &c. The chair is equally splendid ; the arms and legs consist of rich carved work gilt, with crimson velvet back also ornamented. The only objection in point of taste that can be made to this is, that the glitter does not. harmonize with the sober grandeur of the Hall. YeSterday morning the Lord Great Chamberlain at 7 o'c:Ock carried to Ids Majesty his shirt and The first thing we observed on having entered the Hall, was the canopy which was to be borne over the King by the Barons of the Cinque Ports. The canopy was yellow ;—of silk and gold embroidery,• with curtains of muslin ; and eight bearers, having fixed the poles by which the canopy was supported, and which were of steel (apparently,) with silver knobs, fixed, bore it up and doWn the Hall, to practise the mode of carrying, it in procession. It was then deposited according to the progratntnt, at the upper end of the side table of the Hal!, to the left of the throne. But even at this early hour, the appearance of the Hall lined by galleries, and studded with groups of, Gentlemen Pensioners, and various other attendants, in their rich and antique cos tumes, with the Officers of the Guards, and others, in military uniform, and above all the elegantly dressed women who began to fill the galleries, was altogether superb. At this time there were several hundreds of spectators in the Hall, and the whole of the avenues were crowded. The sides of the upper end of the Hall, includ ing the boxes for the Foreign Ministers and Royal Family, were hung with scarlet cloth, edged with ,gold. The Throne was decorated with gold and crimson ; the canopy over the throne was of crim son and gold, with the Royal arms in embroi dery. The large square table before the throne, intended for the display of the regalia, was of purple, having a rim of gold, and an interior Equare moulding of the same description, about two feet from the edge. The platform on which . the throne was placed, and the three steps imme diately descending from it, were covered with dark red carpeting; the two other descending flights of steps, and the double chairs, placed by the side of the table for the Peers (with the names of their future occupiers), and the cover ings of the railings in front of the seats, were of morone cloth. From the bottom of the steps, de scending from the throne to the north gate,.the middle of the floor of the Hall was covered with blue cloth, in the same manner as the platform without. The rest of the floor and the seats were matted. The side tables were covered with green cloth ; and as on each side the galleries reached nearly to the top of the windows in the , wall, only the upper arches of those windows and the noble roof of the old fabric appeared, except at each end, the upper one especially, where the grave visages of ancient Kings, newly decorated, made their appearance. At half-past six the galleries at the lower end of the Hall were completely full. Those on the left were chiefly filled by females. At this time a great noise of shouting was heard without, and some' alarm was for a time excited in the Ilall.— The Yeomen of the Guard, who were without the llall, were ordered to 'come in, and the doors of the Hall were closed. It-was understood that at this time her Majesty had made her appear ance, and' that a file of soldiers had been drawn across the door on the outside. Many reports of what had taken place prevailed in the Hall, and Lord Gwydyr was sent for, apd with his wand of office, accompanied by his Secretary, proceed ed to the door. It was soon. after opened ; the soldiers appeared to be drawn up very closely across the door-way, and there seemed to be a complete interruption to the entrance of the per sons having tickets. In a quarter of an hour this interruption was put au end to. The Duchesses of Gloucester and Clarence had now taken their seats in the box for the Royal Family. The at tendants on the Earl Marshal had began to as semble in the Hall, and attracted some notice by their dark dresses, with white sashes, stockings, shoes with large rosettes, Enid Queen Elizabeth ruffs, with gilt staves tipped with black. At seven a party of Gentlemen pensioners en tered the Hall, with a detachment of the Yeo manry of the Guard. The whole were superbly dressed in scarlet and gold—the former wearing white ruffs round their necks. Several Peers were at this time promenading the Hall in their robes, with their coronets in their hands. At a quarter after seven o'clock an attendant, habited in the dress of Henry Quatre, laid on the table, near the canopy, eight maces, to be borne in the course of the Procession. The herb-women entered the Hall from the south end. Miss Fellows, the principal herb woman, was led in by Mr. Fellows ; and the six young Ladies, her assistants, followed two and two. They were afterwards seated at the north entrance of the Hall. They were elegantly dressed in white, tastefully decorated with flow ers. Miss Fellows wore, in addition to the same dress, a scarlet mantle. At eight o'clock three large baskets were brought into the Hall, filled with flowers, for them to bear. The canopy was now removed from the side table where it had been placed, and yeas brought into the middle of the Hall. The Barons of the Cinque Ports were then marshalled two to each poles, they then bore the canopy down the• Hall by way of practice, according to a word of com mand. Their dresses were extremely splendid, large cloaks of garter blue satin, with slashed arms of scarlet, and stockings of dead red. Many Peers had been occasionally in the Hall at a - very early hour in the morning, and before eight o'clock they had all arrived at the build. ings'near the ,house. of Lords and took their Co and robes. The Archbishops and I 3 shops The Kings Serjeants were in red gowns. The Masters in Chancery (nine of whom attended) were in the dress in which they attend the House of Lords. LONDON AND OXFORD. The persons representing these two Cities ap proached the temporary landing-place in the Speaker's garden, in the City's bare;es, early in the morning. Besides the Lord Mayor, She riffs, and Aldermen of London, there were 12 citizens, selected from the Masters , of the twelve leading Companies, with one alteration on ac count of a death since the first approval of the Court of Claims. The twelve Citizens of Lou don were : Stephen D. Totton, Esq. - Thomas Day Frampton, Esq. John Butts, Esq. Richard Ryland, Esq. (vice W. Sharp, deceased.) John Griffin, Esq. Thomas Moore, Esq. Robert Henry Sparkes, Esq.' . W. Seward Hall, Esq. Jamcs Randall, Esq. Sir Charles Price, Bart. John Farley, Esq.-:.-D. Whalley, Esq. They were attended by the City Officers, the Recorder, the Town Clerk, &c. The Mayor and Burgesses of Oxford who claimed, under Charter, to assist the Citizens of London in the Butlership, were Herbert Parsons, Esq. Mayor. William Elias Taunton, Esq. Recorder. Richard Cox, Esq. Alderman. Thomas Fox Bricknell, Esq. Alderman. William Folker, Esq. Assistant. James Adams, Esq. Assistant. Robert Juggins, Esq. Bailiff. Charles Forster, Esq. Bailiff. Sir William Elias Taunton, Knight, Town Clerk. They were permitted, as matter of favour—not of right, to proceed to the Hall in the City's barges. • The Barons of the Cinque Ports now took another turn in the Hall. About this time also, the four swords were brought in, and deposited on the end of the left-hand table, with the spurs, and a cushion for the crown. The Knights of the Bath now began, to assemble s and with the others who were to take part in the procession, ranged themselves at the end of the Hall. The dresses of the Knights of the Bath were extremely splendid. The Knights had all close dresses of white satin, puckered in a variety of ways. The Grand Crosses wore flowing robes of pinkish red satin, lined 'with white ;. the Commanders close mantles. The Judges and the Privy Coun cillors, not being Peers, next entered, the latter in splendid dresses of blue velvet and gold.— Among them we observed—the Earl of Yar mouth, Lord Binning, M . r.Canning„ Mr. Bathurst, Mr. Huskisson, Sir G. Hill, Mr. Robinson, Mr. Beckett,-LOrd G. Beresford, and Mr. Wallace. The Barons then entered, Lords Stowell and Maryborough (late Sir W. Scott and W. W. Pole) being among the first. Next carne the Bishops; then the Viscounts; next the Earls ; the Mar quesses and Dukes ; and lastly, the Great Officers of State. Archbishops and Members of the Royal Family entered. The Matquis of Londonderry soon after entered in the full robes of the Order of the Garter, as he is painted by Sir T. Law rence. Prince Leopold of Saxe Cobourg was also in the same costume. The Princes of the Blood and some of the Dukes placed themselves on the right of the platform about the throne. The Marquesses and some of- the: Earls on the left side, formed a line with those who had de scended to the floor of the Hall. The show of ermine and velvet on the descent of the platform was of the most magnificent description. The null was now crowded. A Herald then went through the line of Peers, marshalling each according to the order of their creation—the junior first. They were a secoßll time called over, and ranged in a double file on each side of the middle space of the Hall by Mr. Mash. Before the King came the Peers were all ranged on each side of the Hall, none being left on the platform but the Great Officers of State and the Royal Family. At 20 minutes past nine the names of tt►e Peers were called over, and those of the different personages who assisted in the grand ceremony. At half-past nine o'clock the whole of the per sons forming the procession were assembled in the Hall. To attempt to give an idea of the imposing spectacle at this moment is far beyond ourahility, for we think it is impossible that even imagina tion can embody any thing at all approximating towards such a scene of magnificence. In con templating the grandeur of the illustrious assem blage, in which were represented all the riches, virtue, arid talent of the country, our surprise could only equal our admiration at the reality of the august pageant. At a little after ten o'clock the Officers of State, the Judges, Bishops, Barons, Viscounts,. Earls, Marquesses; Dukes, &c., with the• per sonages who bad to perform certain duties during The necessary arrangements having been made f.r ghing through the ceremony performed before the King, prior to his leaving the Hall to go to the Abbey, the Lord Great Chamberlain and. other Officers who had assisted in attiring his Majesty, entered. The most breathless anxiety was evinced by the audience, and they rose from their seats on the King entering the Hall th roug h the door behind the 'T hrone. Ile was ushered to his scat on the Throne by Lord Gwydyr, whose grace and elegance were admired by every one. His Majesty took his seat with the di g nity be coming his high station, and waved his h and most gracefully right and left as soon as he was seated. The dress of his Majesty was of the richest de scription. He wore a black velvet hat, with .a large plume- of white feathers flowing over the top, out of the centre of which appeared a heron's feather. His under dress was white and silver, with white silk stockings, and white shoes and tassels. He wore a large mantle of crimson; vel vet, which was covered with gold stars ; the train was supported by six pages. While the Regalia was being presented his Majesty bowed to the persons who assisted in the ceremony, and during the time the procession was forming to proceed to the Abbey, his Majesty conversed with the Pages and others who surrounded him in the most affable manner. When the Officers had presented the regalia to the King, they retired backwards down the steps from the Royal platform, bowing as they retired. When the Marquess of Anglesey re ceived back the Crown, his Majesty addressed a few words to, him. It was understood that he permitted him to walk down the steps with his back towards his Majesty, in consequence of the Noble Marquess being lame from the loss of . a leg at Waterloo. - At a quarter past eleven o'clock the greater part of the procession had passed out of the Hall; and the canopy being raised by the Barons of the Cinque Ports,. and the Officers of State, &c. being ranged before the canopy in due, forth, the King rose from his seat, and assisted by one of his Ministers, his train being supported, he walked down the steps into the lower floor of the Hall, and walked under the canopy for a short time : after which his Majesty walked be fore it, and proceeded during the firing of can non and the enthusiastic shouts of the populace to the Abbey. In the Hall no expression of feel. ing was she n during the whole ceremony. In fact, the audience did not know whether it would be considered decorous to express their feelings by boisterous shouting, therefore avoided it. When the Duke of York made his obeisance to his Majesty, his graceful manner was greatly admired. His dutiful attentions to the King were marked by all present. - At half-past eight, the Dean and Prebendaries of Westminster having assembled in their church and being vested in surplices and rich copes, set forth with the insignia of Royalty, which were anciently kept in the Abbey, and brought them to the Hall in the following procession, which had been regulated by the following programme: —(See the SUN of yesterdajj.) The ceremonies between the entrance of he King and the, leaving of the procession was not more than half an hour.. THE ABBEY. In the upper part of the chancel, between the Choir and the lligh Altar, and under the tower, is a large platform . called the Theatre ; in the midst of this is placed the Royal Throne. On the south and north sides of the theatre are. benches for the Peers, and against the four great pillars which support the. tower are seats for the officers of arms. On the eastern side of the theatre, in front of the throne, is a chair for the King, in which he sits on his first coming into the church. Between these and the altar is placed the old chair of King Edward ; on the south side is the chairs and faldstool used by his Majesty during .the sermon and litany, behind which is a long beirch for the great Officers of State. Opposite, on the north side, are the Bishops, and at the side of the altar the chair of the Archbishop of Gatiterbury. —The pulpit is against the north east pillar. As the procession entered the. choir, the Law Officers and Judges ascended the Theatre, and. divided to the right and left, went to seats ap pointed for them in galleries on either side, standing before them till the King was seated. The choir of Westminster, with the . Prebenda ries and Dean, waited on the left hand'sifle of the middle aisle, in the nave, till his MajeAy entered the church, the Gentlemen of the Cira , 7 pel repairing to their galleries, and the varion4 , officers to their respective stations. The Peers were then conducted to the seats on the north and south sides. By this time the King having entered the church, was received by the Dean and Prebendaries, with the choir, who, proceed- . ing a little before his Majesty, sung a full an them, from Psalm cxxii. 1. "I was glad when they said unto me," &c. Then the Prebendaries entering the Choir, ascended the theatre, and passed over to their station on the south side of the altar, beyond the King's chair. After which . the Dean of Westminster, the .great Officers; and two Archbishops, ascended the theatre, and stood near, south east pillar. The King preceded by the Officers of Stated and his Regalia, having left the Barons of the.. Cinque Ports who bore his canopy ; the Crentle
