and anxious attention, which he has incessantly applied to the discharge of his'arduous duties. — Our humble tribute of praise may be of little value, but we cannot deny ourselves the pleasure of bearing testimony to his temperate firmness and uniform urbanity. The difficulty of attending to minute details, in themselves apparently trifling, but in reality of the utmost importance to all concerned, was greatly-enhanced by the shortness of the time in which such extensive ar rangernentswere to be made. Every thing, how ever, was accomplished by dint of vigorous exer tion. Lord Gwydyr had the advantage of a very able assistant in the person of his Secretary, Mr. Fellowes.—We feel much pleasure in adding, that his Majesty has expressed the highest satis faction at the arrangements which were made under the direction of the Lord Great Chamber lain ; and also at the reception which he expe rienced from his loyal and generous people.—At the express command of the King, the Bucking hamshire Yeomanry, and several of their ladies, were admitted yesterday to a sight of the Hail, about six o'clock.—The only change made in the appearance of the Hall is in the removal of the splendid gold plate, on each side of the Throne. — After his Majesty quitted the Hall, at about a quarter before eight on Thursday evening, a ge neral rush was made towards the table „from whence the King had but just departed ; every one was anxious to obtain some remembrance of this ever ►memorable ceremony, and for that pur pose seized every decorative or useful article which had served the Peers' tables at the dinner. The Lord Great Chamberlain and some other Officers of State threw themselves on the King's table, and by grasping every thing within their compass, succeeded with the utmost difficulty in preserving the gold and silver ; it was a complete scramble, many persons bore away in triumph spoons, wine glasses, saltsellers, &c. The flail was nearly cleared by nine o'clock. Several Ladies fainted during the day, among whom was - Princess Esterhazy, who it appears suffered con siderably from the overpowering heat of the dsy. His Majesty afterwards supped with the Speaker and a select party. MISCELLANEOUS. Nis Majesty's dress and appearance on this great occasion would require a separate descrip tion, nor can we pretend to do justice to it within our present narrow limits, either as he proceeded toward the Abbey, wearing his rich purple velvet cap of estate, adorned with jewels, and surmounted by a graceful plumage of white ostrich feathers, or as he returned, his forehead radiant in the sunshine, with the light and ele gant Crown of State, one blaze of diamonds.— On the former occasion, his robe of state was of crimson velvet, spreading out into ample folds, and a long train massive with the golden stars and other ornaments by which it was studded : on the latter, the robe was of purple velvet, fur red with ermine. In going, he wore on his hands a pair of white gloves,magnificently fringed with gold : on the return, he bore in his right hand St. Edward's sceptre with the cross, and in his Left the golden orb. In both instances his Majesty was supported by a Reverend Prelate on each hand : he walked under, or occa-ionally preceded a canopy of cloth of gold, supported by the 16 Barons of the Cinque Ports and Havens ; and his train was supported by eight eldest sons of, Peers, assisted by the Master of the Robes, and followed by the Groom of the Robes ; while on each side marched twenty of the Ppind of Gentlemen Pensioners, headed by their Lieute nant and Standard Bearer. Prince Leopold was dressed in the full habit of the Order of the Garter, carrying in his right hand his Marshal's baton, and in his left l.'s cap and feathers. His train was borne by Gentle men in the following dress—a white silk vest and breechesedged with gymp, white stockings, shoes, and rosettes, blue velvet sword belt and sheath, a plain blue satin cloak lined with white silk, and a black hat with white feathers. The other Princes were in their robes of estate, with train-bearers habited as has been just deicribed. They were followed by the High Constables of Scotland and Ireland, in their robes of estate, bearing their staves; and these by two Serjeants at Arms. The Deputy Earl Marshal, the Duke of Dorset hearing the Sword of State, and the Lord High Constable of England, came next in their robes of estate ; and again two Serjeants at Arms. These were succeeded by three Noble men in their robes of estate, carrying the sceptre with a dove, the crown of St. Edward, and the orb ; and by three Prelates in black and lawn, carrying the patina, bible, and chalice immedi ately before the King.—His Majesty appeared much younger than he really is. His faCe very little resembles the representation in the print shCps. There is still a strong resemblance be tween his countenance and the portrait of him in the Freemasons"Favern i which was taken air/ years ago.—The form of the features is extremely handsome, and the general ex prenion as pleasing as an uninterrupted gra tification of all well-regulated wishes can bestow. The Order of the Bath afforded a numerous and striking body of attendants on the Proces- 1 sion. First came the Officers attendant On the Knights Commanders. They wore crimson satin vests, ornamented with white, and over these a white silk mantle. They also wore ruffs, chains, and badges. Their stockings were of white silk with crimson roses. Next came the Knights Commanders of the Bath. They wore the pre valent costume of the day, a la Henri Quatre, with ruffs and hats turned up in front. Their vests and slashed pantaloons were of white satin overspread with a :;mall silver lace : their cloaks were short, of crimson satin, embroidered with the star of the Order, and lined with white. Their half-boots were of white with red heels, crimson satin tops and crimson roses; their spurs were of gold, their sword-belts and sheaths white, and their hats were black with white ostrich feathers. Again followed two Officers of the Order with dresses as beforemen tioned. Then came the Knights Grand Crosses, whose dress had all the beauty of that of the Knights Commanders with somewhat more. mag pificenee, it being in all respects the same, ex cept that for *the short cloak was substituted au ample flowing mantle, and for the feathers a larger and loftier plume. A Pursuivant in his embroidered tabard succeeded ; and then came the Barons of the Exchequer, the Justices of both Benches, and the Chiefs of the Exchequer and Common Pleas, all in their red robes; the Vice- Chancellor ands Master of the Rolls, both in black gowns, richly laced with gold ; and the Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench, in red, with his golden collar; all these learned persons wore their full-bottomed wigs. Miss Fellowes, the Head Herb Woman in the Procession of his Majesty's Coronation, carried a most beautiful basket, filled with the choicest flowers, wore a magnificent dress of white satin, with a mantle of the finest scarlet cloth, trimmed with gold, and lined with white satin, also a splendid gold badge and chain ; head dress of gold wheat, intermixed with grapes and laurel ' leaves. Miss Fellowes was attended by the fol lowing six young ladies :—Miss Hill and Miss Bond, Miss Walker and Miss Daniel, Miss Cald well and Miss Georgiana Collier, carrying three baskets, elegantly formed for two to each. All of whom wore white crape dresses over rich white satin, with an appropriate sash of flowers suspended from the shoulder to the bottom of the skirt, and flowers tastefully arranged in the trimming, with Gabriel ruffs ; head-dresses, chaplets of flowers to correspond. The Standard of Ireland was most appro priately attended, being carried by Lord Beres ford, and his attendant Page of Honour to the Standard being the Earl of Tyrone, eldest son to the Marquis of Waterford, premier Marquis of Ireland. The young Earl was attired in the splendid blue and silver dress of the Pages of Honour. The fine fi;;nre of Lord Beresford, and the beauty of the child, attracted much atten tion. We forgot to mention yesterday that his Ma jesty, shortly before his departure, conferred the honour of Knighthood on two individuals—Mr. GEORGE COLMAN, who is the Senior of the Band of Gentlemen Pensioners, was one of them. The Honourable Artillery Company is the only volunteer corps which had the honour of salut ing his Majesty, their Captain General, in the procession on Thursday. They were stationed two deep in Little Bridge-street, close to the platform, where they took post soon after two o'clock in the morning, till eight o'clock at night, when they were relieved by order of the general officer who had the command of the infantry on duty that day. The whole corps had new dresses, colours, &c. for the occasion. His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, the Colonel, particularly noticed them both on going and re turning from the Abbey. BRIGHTON, JULY 19. At day-break cannons were discharged on the Downs. Colours soon after were hoisted in the most conspicuous situations. At five o'clock at least three thousand persons had assembled on the Level. At the latter period the oxen to blazing fires were laid down. A Coronatio❑ sa lute of 36 explosions from four carriage-mounted swivels, at the bottom of Middle-street, rattled in all parts of the town at nine. At mid-day the children of the Sunday and National Schools were marshalled on the Steyne, and cakes were distributed to them ; during which a Royal sa lute was discharged from the 42-pounders on the battery. At one o'clock the shipping in the roadstead, two Revenue cutters, several packets, two collier brigs, and trading ships, commenced firing, which was continued till two with dis charges at quick returning intervals as in answer from the land.—The venerable Phoebe Hassel, a pensioner of the Kin;, at the age of 107, arrived at the dinner hour in time to say grace ; she had been brought thither by Mr. 1-I. Lewis, in a post-chaise. Poor Phcebe had been con fined to her room for some weeks by ill ness, and her medical attendant had prohi bited her attendance, but that she disregarded ; it was the voice of the King, she said, which seemed to call her forth, and she would at tend to it in despite of all the Doctors in the kingdom, and their physic to boot. The band struck up " God save the King," soon after her approach, and the delighted old Lady joined heartily in the chorus.—A. description of the sports, with the varieties introduced, from four to six o'clock, wonld be difficult, but as exhilir ating as diversified was their progress. Foot ball, jingling matches, pig hunts with greased tails, jumping in sacks, climbing tall poles, smoothed and greased, for joints of meat, at the sky extremity, foot races for prize favours, &c. were in. diverting succession till the latter hour, when these were abandoned for the merry dance, and scores of couples, in almost as many sets, footed it in concert, keeping the best time that buoyant spirits and warm hearts could allow them. A tout ensemble more enlivening never ' presented itself in this, nor in any other part of the world ; and not an accident that we have heard of occurred, to check the happiness pre deominant. At this time, 10 r. ai. a bonfire on a slope to the north, including fuel to the amount of 500 fagots, surmounted by a tar-barrel, is sending up a vivid flame to the clouds ; fire-works are letting off in front of it; and immensely nu merous still is the congregation in that quarter. In defiance of the prohibition from the Managing Committee, many houses in the town are now illuminated. WINDSOR. This delightful town was very prominent in the rejoicings on the day of the Coronation, and the most active preparations were, on foot for some time prior to the day, and the town from one end to the other was completely illuminated with lamps, &c., and formed a most brilliant appearance when lighted up at night. The day was ushered in by the ringing of bells and firing of guns, and laurels were observed in various places, and every de monstration of loyal attachment was paid to the day. The poor inhabitants were munificently treated on the occasion. Two large bullocks were roasted for them in the market-place, with four large fat sheep, of which they most sump tuously partook. Crowds assembled to witness the cooking : prior to which being finished, tables were laid in a spacious field, and the whole of the party for whom the repast was Ititended surrouuded them and they seemed to groan under their weight. RICHMOND. This loyal town, in honour of the Coronation of our gracious King, regaled 1000 poor people on the Green with an excellent dinner, consist ing of hot roast beef, veal, and boiled legs of mutton, an abundance of plum puddings, and se veral butts of strong beer. A 'band of musk at tended. The amusements after dinner consisted of dancing, donkey racing, jingling matches, jump ing in sacks, pig racing, &c. &c. In the evening there was a brilliant display- of fireworks, the town was illuminated, and the theatre under the direction of Mr. Klanert, in addition to the orna ment of flags, lamps, &c. presented a beautiful allegorical transparency (truly appropriate) of his Majesty, in Grecian costume, trampling on de feated anarchy, while a protecting genius above places on his head a crown of laurel. CHELTENHAM, .JuLY 19. At Malvern Wells, Sir Robert and Lady Wigram gave a dinner to one hundred poor chil dren, and a sovereign to all the poor above 70, in celebration of the King's Coronation. In the even ing there was a display of fire-works from the summit of the hills which had a brilliant effect on the surrounding country. OXFORD, JULY 28. The day of hit Majesty's Coronation was celebrated in this City by appropriate demonstrations of loyalty and attachment to the throne. The morning was ushered in by the ringing of bells, which was continued at intervals throughout the day. The poor children belonging to the city charity schools were entertained with an excellent dinner of meat and plum pud ding in the Town Hall, where some of the principal trad2smen attended to assist in carving for them ; and several bar rels of strong beer Were distributed to the populace in different parts of the town. The prisoners in the county and city gaols were regaled with a pound of meat and a quart of beer each man. In the evening a brilliant illumination took place, in which several very elegant transparencies and appro priate devices were exhibited. The one before the house of H. Parsons, Esq. the Mayor, was particularly admired. The fronts of Magdalen, Brasenose, Wadham, St. John's, Pembroke, and Trinity Colleges, Dr. Burton's lodgings at Christ Church, the Town Hall, and the Butter Bench, were also tastefully decorat ed, and the evening being very calm, the candles were for the most part placed in the open air, which added considerably to the brilliancy of the scene. Some fine sky-rockets and a vast assortment of squibs were let off during the evening, which, (except in the instance of a few windows being broken by the mob) passed off quietly. On Thursday, being the Coronation of our King, the Rector of Somerton, after the labours of the day, assembled his labourers in a harbour pro vided for the purpose. Here they all devoutly joined him in that excellent prayer of our Liturgy, " 0 Lord, our Heavenly Father, &c. ;" and after a suitable grace sat down to a substan tial meal, and the village band attending, the evening was spent in pleasure, with much harmony, and religious thankful ness. • HINCLEY. On Thursday morning the Vicar and principal Inhabitants assembled at the Town Hall, and proceeded from thence, at tended by a band of music, Br,c," ; -. to Church, where .a Sermon was preached on the occasion, and the Coronation Anthem, the National Anthem; and-appropriate Psalms, were sung by the Choir. Immediately after Divine service an ox, 23 sheep, 18441b5. of bread, 28 strikes of potatoes, and 547 gallons of ale, were placed before the pock (amounting to more than 4,000) on 23 dinner tables in different parts of the towns. In the afternoon a numerous and respectable party of the inhabitants, attended by the neighbouring Magistrates, sat down to an ex cellent dinner at the Town Hall, THOMAS SANsomE, Esq. in the Chair. Many appropriate toasts were drank, and the company continued to enjoy themselves till " dusky night ap proached," when they retired much pleased with the festivities of the day. We understand that (with the exception of the circumstance which we are about to mention) the greatest harmony, unanimity, and order, prevailed among all classes, from the highest to the lowest ; but it is with much regret we are obliged to record the prostitution of the sacerdotal tribune to the delivery of some of the most improper and dangerous observations.—lt was well observed by a worthy Magistrate who was present, that " though it, is the boast and privilege of " every Englishman to hold any opinions he pleases, there are " times when, and places in which, it is not only IMPROPER, " but INDECENT, to give utterance to those opinions." We must deprecate the taking advantage of such an opportunity to make the pulpit the vehicle of sentiments, which ought not to be tolerated in popular or democratic oratory. NORWICH, JULY 20. The Coronation was celebrated in this city by every species o f rejoicing that can serve to fix such an event on the minds of the inhabitants. The annunciation of the intended festivities, to gether with the necessary preparations, had already excited the universal curiosity of the citizens, when the clear bright sun shine of the morning gave promise of enjoying the several parts of the spectacle with the full delight that a brilliant atmos phere affords. The flags floated from the steeples of the churches, the bells rung out their merry peals, the population thronged into the streets, the firing of guns, and the strains of music resounded at intervals throughout the city.— In the market art Arch was erected which occupied the approach to the Hall between the South entrance, but something below the Hall itself, and the range of houses on the west or upper side. In the centre of the spacious area, on the descent fronting Davey-place, a lofty pile of wood for a bonfire was raised, and just beyond, a bullock, weighing upwards of 60 stone, was seen roasting entire between two fires within walls which inclosed them. A platform was built in such a position as to receive the bullock when cooked, trona whence it might be distributed to the populace.—At half-past four about 300 gentlemen sat down to a plain but substantial dinner, served at three tables, in St. Andrew's Hall. The Mayor presided at the centre, and John 1 1 Morse and John Patteson, Esqrs. at the right and left tables.— A Baron of beef, weighing 179 pounds, was served, but was first paraded round the Hall, borne by four brave fellows who fought at Nirateiloo, and preceded by two drummers and fifers who had been in the same glorious action, playing " 0 the Roast Beef of Old England," and by the two carvers. —The cloth being drawn, the toasts were given by the Mayor through his official toast-master, the, Beaman.— In the evening splendid fireworks were exhibited. No situation could be more favourable to such a display, and it did great credit to the artist, who is a female (Mrs. Jones), and who in person played them off. The bonfire, which formed the cli max, was lighted during the explosion of the fireworks, and a little too early : its sudden flames threw red and lurid gleams upon all the surrounding objects, which rose at once to sight from the partial obscuration of the night. For the moon had scarcely risen, when her face was veiled in misty clouds, and darkness ministered to the effects of the fire. The spacious avenue of Davey-place, which opened a direct vista to the flaming pile, and the steps lending to the ditches, were crowded with spectators ; the Castle Hill-too was covered, where, viewed from the Market, they seemed to rise in suc cession (some What broken indeed by the intervening trees), series above series, as in a vast amphitheatre. This perhaps was the finest moment ofthe spectacle, and served to close with becoming grandeur this scene of popular excitation. At one o'clock the bonfire was extinguished, the sounds of rejoicing gradually died away, and, the city sunk into its common and nightly conditicin of ztoiaeleas tranquillity and repose. FOR THE SUN.

SOLEM QUIS DIC.`:I2E FALRUM AIUDE.ItT, LONDON, SATURDAY, JULY 21, 1821. We received, at a late hour this day, the Paris Journals of Wednesday, which contain further accounts of advantages gained by the Greek s over the Turks. Letters from Odessa, of the 22d ultimo, state, that the fleet fitted out by the Porte at such enormous expence, and which passed through the Dardanelles on the 15th or 16th of last month, in order to cruize in the Ar chipelago, was met by the Greek fleet, near the island of Mitylene. An obstinate action ensued, which terminated in favour of the Greeks, who succeeded in capturing two frigates, and several other vessels of a smaller class. The remainder of the Ottoman fleet escaped. A line of battle ship, which formed part of this squadron, re turned to Constantinople, much damaged, with the disastrous intelligence. Since the receipt of this news, Constantinople resembles a town taken by assault ; several of the streets are filled with dead bodies, victims to the fury of the Turks, and numbers of Greeks have been carried out into the Bosphorus and drowned ; fifty-one Priests were massacred during the celebration of Divine Service, and the most horrid indignities were practised on their mangled corpses. The Turkish fleet at anchor in the Port of Patras, in the Morea, has been captured, by boarding by another Greek squadron ; and sub sequent accounts report that the Fort of Patras, and several other fortified places in the Morea, have fallen into the hands of the Greeks. Little hopes are entertained of the adjustment of the differences between Russia and the Porte. The general opinion is, that war will be imme diately declared by those two Powers ; and what gives greater credibility to this apprehension is, that both Austria and Prussia are making large military preparations.—lt is conjectured that both of them will adopt the same line of policy in the approaching contest : but what that line of policy may be still remains doubtful. FR ENCII FUNDS. July 17, Five per Cents. Bank Stock 1615 f. c. [Late from the West Indies.] By the arrival of the brig Leopard we learn, from Martinique and St. Bark, that piratical de predations still continue of these islands, and ou the South America coast, to an alarming extent. The French are vigilant, but the privateers elude them. A few (lays before the Leopard sailed a brig was taken by one of Commodore Daniel's vessels, said to be from Vera Cruz, with 140,000 dollars on board, and a rich► cargo of dry goods, to the amount of 100.000 dollars more. [From the National Intelligence; June 10.] In our Paper of the 6th inst. we stated the grounds upon which we were induced to believe that- the possession of the Floridas would have been transfrrred to the United States without delay. Since that date, however, circumstances have transpired well calculated to excite suspi cions that the policy of the Spanish Government, which so unseasonably prohibited the ratification of the Treaty to the United States, has been adopted by the Vocal Officers of Spain, to whom its execution in that,respect has been confided. The schooner 8 . -tutus, arrived at Baltimore, in seven days from Havannah, with dispatches for our Government, relative, it is presumed, to the cession of the Floridas. It was very sickly at Havannah . It is not without very-kreat reluctance That we touch upon the subject of QUE E N, and we earnestly hope that this,, k b, *time Nae3hall , • have any occasion tc\zefer to it.. The 'Public in general will do us the justice to admit that, from the time of Il ER MAJESTY'S return to this coun try till the present moment, whatever may have been our private opinions respecting her conduct, we have forborne to animadvert upon it with the warmth, we may perhaps be allowed to say, the asperity, which has marked the observations of those Journals that have adopted the same course of general politics which we have pursued with un deviating consistency from ti;e very origin of our Paper. Wehave,upon the same principle, content ed ourselves,as our public duty demanded, with inserting a mere historical account of the ex ternal proceedings of Thursday last, among the reports of all that took place within the Hall and the Abbey respecting the solemn ceremonies which, according to the forms of our Political Constitution, formally united the Sovereign and the People. We cannot, however, avoid ex- pressing our sincere regret, not to adopt any stronger language, at the course which her Majesty pursued on that day. She had re peatedly made every application necessary for supporting what she conceived to be her just right to participate in the awful National ceremonies, and so far she had discharged her duty to herself and her successors,; but, having been fully inform' ed that by the decision of the highest, most learned, and dignified authorities of the realm, with the sanction of the Sovereign himself, that her requisition could not be complied with, she ought then to have stopped, and to have remained at home in that quilt acquiescence which became her station end her sex. She had done all that was de manded by the one, and she would have held forth a noble example to the other, both fo r future personages in her exalted situation, if any similar circumstances should hereafter unfortunately arise, and for the regulation of domestic life through all the subordinate ranks of society. To renew her application, therefore, in person at the very place of the na tional solemnity, was certainly very injudicious, to use the mildest epithet, and was highly dan gerous, inasmuch as it could have no other ten dency than to excite tumult, confusion,and P° s sibly the most lamentable excesses. Here w e shall close our remarks, and indulge the h°P e that the reception which she generally received, and her reflection on it, will induce her IV ' 4.. JESTY to pause, and hereafter to resign hers elf to the enjoyment of that splendid establishme►?t which the liberality of the country affords h er, and cautiously avoid every thing which tend to disturb its tranquillity. THE CONSTITUTIONAL ASSOCIATION.--A true bill was yesterday found, by the London Gr and Jury, against Sir JOHN SEWELL, CHARLES Sa ri RAY, J. B. SHARPE, and LONGUEVILLE CLlt gs° Members and Agents of the Constitutional Society. charging them with a conspiracy, in fooli n g an , belonging to an unlawful Society, an d Witti c „ committing several alleged acts of opp ressit' and extortion. We are of course onaccl"'": lntea with the precise terms in which the bill has b 9 b , prepared ; but the above, we understand, i s .the correct substance of the charge.—Upon a lea 9 question, of so much importance to the libertiler of the subject, and to the peace and good °ru be of the State, as that which is involved in t h e legality or illegality, not only of the proceedisf„ or some of the proceedings, but of the omit er lion, or organization, of this Society, it is P r°P ri that the subject should he examined in ev, e ig , point of view, taid should be temperately uis cussed. Thus the principle on which a societf oc . founded, and the objects ivilictrit proposes too complish, may be laudable and undonb t e e t its legal ; and yet the means employed to e ffe de purposes may be inconsistent with the pr i x ( i ts of its own formation, and the co./ " lac' P pres- agents may be not only, vexatious ano A ~ whiC sive, but in violation of those very la" s li d P r the society was established to stwort, ep tef which the great body of its member s tale a profound veneration. We are farh'at ° the far, from either saying or insinuating t se' el.' P agency of the Constitutional Society has itself to this charge. That question is cecv. per!) , about to be decided in a Court of a ji i r a , our .1 The finding of a bill by a Grand ar m &W e ; Readers are aware, is entirely on es, 13 no t at a ll meat ; and therefore the questionijot , ve have prejudiced by their proceeding• t he constilli pointed out the distinction betwe e ;f its ager ic i 2 lion of a society, and the conduc t and separat e because they form two distinct a jury, n oon f questions for the consideration both of which the Jury may or it map decide that the constitution of the society 13 lad decide of i ts agency, ful, and that its agency, or a par the on' has been unlawful.
