WE have this morning been favoured wish the perusal of the . ,Parir Papers to the gth inst. They are of course filled with accounts of the Coronation of BorwARTE I which took place on the z 3. We have extraaed from all the Papers every thing re. bang to this most extraordinary event. PARIS Dec. I.—Never was there seen in Paris such a number of carriages : the streets, quays, and bridges are covered with them. Yesterday and today a great number of the De. potations, who have come to Paris to attend the Coronation, passed in Review on the Plain of the Invalids. The Squadrons of Cavalry which. were expeaed in Paris arrived this morning :—they made a most brilliant appearance. The exertions of the Police is astonishing, and yet its operations are imperceptible. Citizens come freely to Paris, and .go about where they please, without any body appearing to take notice of them. Nevertheles rutty One it known., Numerous patroles maintain order by their presence alone, amidst this immense concourse of strangers arrived from every part of Europe. The horses which are to draw the twenty-four carriages which will form the linveriJl Procession, were exercised 'this day on the Place Carourth they went through the evolutions which they are to perform to-morrow. Every body admired the grace and beauty of these superb coursers, which seemed to feel proud of the employment for which they are destined. The cannon announces, in all the environs of the Capital, the eve of a great day, It "was too often the signal of alarm and death ; at present it only awakens delightful sensations and prospects of hap. piness in the breasts of Frenchmen.---(Bulletin.) The Senate, at seven o'clock this day, proceeded in a body to the Thuilleries, where they were pre sented to his Imfierial Majeity by his Imperial Highness Prince Joseptt, Grand Elenor. ilis Ex. tellrncy the President, NEU FC tt. rc. u, adiressed his Mojitly in a long complimentary speech (which we have not room fur insertion to.day); to which his Majesty replied in the folloiving terms : " I ascend the Throne, to wl•ieh the unanimous wishes of the Senate, the People, , and the Army, have called me, with a heart penetrated with the great destinies of that People whom, from the midst of Camps, I first saluted with the name of Great. " From my youth my thoughts have been solely axed upon them; and I mast. add here, that my plea. Ores and my pains are derived entirely from the hap. pines% or misery of my People. f‘ My . Descendants shall long preserve this Throne. " In the Camps they will he the first Soldiers of the Army, sacrificing their lives for the defence of their Country. gi As nigistrates they will never forget, that contempt of the laws, and the confusion of social order, are only the result of the imbecility and un. ccrt4inty of Princes, si Ymi, Snators, whose counsels sod support have. never, fliletl me. in the most difficult Oruro. stances, your spirit will be banded down to your successors. Be ever the props and first counsellors of that Throne, so necessary to the welfare of this vast Empire." On the same day the Tribunate complimented 1 . 114 Majesty ; and the Senate and Tribunate, and Council of State, delivered congratulatory, speeches Aeolic Porte.--(Mintheur.) • PARIS, Dec. ze—The solemnity of the Cc 101)3. tion and Consecration of their Imperial Majesties was celebrated this day, in conformity with the Regulations in the different Ceremonials which have bean published. It wOuld be difficult fur us, to. day, to enter into full details, or even to coiled particular circurnstances. The weather was peculiarly favourable to the pomp and external magnificence of the Procession. A fine winter's day, the sky lightly clouded, a slight frost, facilitated the full display of all the great pre. parations which had been made ; and was equally favourable to those wha made part of the Procession a to s h e ve tt o u r ! , Tk carriage of ;:is: holiness . , „i, as usual, preceded by An Ecclesiastic upon a r alie cir* • • ng the Papal Cross, The Holy Father o lyi the way save the Apostolical benediaion, and in IClUggif Mci CU into V{ 5ia , i1.0 , 6. Fit,/ a -- Their Imperial Majesties heard continually, during this whole of the procession, both before and after the Coronation, the most animated expressions of the public will; which gave a sort of sanction to this solemn aa. The crowd was every where im. ramie, and the greatest order prevailed. The Senate were yesterday admitted in a body to pay their homage to his Holiness, as was his Eminence the Cardinal Archbishop of Paris. The day before yesterday Deputations from the Legislative Body and the Tribunate were presented to his Holiness. The Presidents having addressed him, the Holy Father replied : he began his an. saver iu French, and having apologized, on account of the difficulty ke felt in expressing himself in our language, he concluded in Italian. The evening before, a Deputation of the Senate was presented to his Holiness. The Sceptre which his Majesty the Emperor car. tied at the Coronation was of silver, with a golden serpent twined around it, surmounted with a globe bearing a figure representing CHARLIMAGN2.-- (PithEChte.) DEC. 3. —We cannot yet give our Readers the expeeted details of the august ceremony of the Inauguration and Coronation. The grandeur of the solemnity, the order, eclat, and pomp with which they were celebrated, have impressed upon all hearts a deep emotion, which does not leave the mind the requisite freedom to describe, in so short a time, so magnificent a speCtacle. Yet we must point out the God of Day escaping, beyond all hope, from the empire of a foggy and cloudy season, to enlighten so fine a day ; and those thousands and thousands of lamps, giving a noon.day brilliancy to a peaceful and joyous night, furnish a just idea - of the most noble and imposing procession, of that religious ceremony, of that civil aB, which have at once united all that human and divine affairs could present most sublime ; of that concou rse o f people from all parts of the Empire, and from the most distant parts of Europe, to admire, in the bosom of one city, the most venerable apostolic virtues, and the most astonishing genius crowned by the most brilliant destiny. We must, in short,' communicate to the French who were not happy enough to be present, that pious and civic tnthu. siaEnt, that love, that gratitude of a whole people, whose transports resounded in the same day throughout the temples and every part of the Capi. tal.—(Mon;teur.) To describe at this moment so memorable a day as yesterday—to depil 'the public joy—to enume rate the numerous proofs of love and gratitude Which the Emperor received every where, would be to undertake what the delirium of a moment will not permit, and what the few minutes we can spare to this day's _Paper will still less permit,—We must confine ourselves to a few words. • The weather which, in so many circumstances, has proved favourable to the Pie in the event of which BotgArArre was the Nero, was more than . ever in unison with the wishes of the French.—A mild, but slightly clouded day, crowned with com.. plete success the immense preparations with which all Paris was occupied. The sun shone for a short time—his fresh beams appeared when the Emperor left the Thai*ries, and from time to time irradiated his path to the too• =at of his arrival at Notre Dame. From five in the morning the streets were full of people and carriages —from all parts the pecTle . rushed to the places through whiclt the rtocesaion was to pass. The public expellation was entirely fulfilled nothing could equal the taste, richness, and elegance of every thing belonging to the Procession. No thing, above all, could equal the brilliant appear. ante of those gallant men that formed His Majesty's escort, and whose eclat spoke marc to the imagin. ration, because it brought to mind the victories with which this band of heroes covered themselves. The Procession arrived at Notre Dame amidst the acclamations of the people, who blessed the day and the Hero to whom the benefit was to be attri buted. These acclamations were redoubled in the Church, filled with Citizens, so much the more sin. cerely attached to His Majesty, from being the co. operators of the good which his gepius prepares and direels, The imposing ceremonies of the inauguration took place in the manner we had previously an. nounced. We shall dwell here only upon the Em. peror's Oath. His Majesty pronounced it with that firm tone of a man whose heart corfirms what his mouth expresses ; but when he came to these words, which terminate that august oath.../ fQ, go . tiers solely 'with a view . to the interest, the hap_; finest, and glory of the French. • Pelle—his v changing from a deep and affeding sentiment, reach eci more Ce i laii:ltihe beat t 4 U every ons n t;;he • 4 heard His Majesty and die Proceston Came Qui 4 f the .54.3 •ILit ....114$ II kV LLZ 13.111. leries till night had closed in, leaving no other re. gret to be experienced by the Citizens than that the tall of day had hindered • them from enjoying this" charming and inspiring spalacle. Every where in his Majesty's passage the Citi. Zen. were eager to . decorate their houses with tapes. tries of different kinds. In the afternoon the troops assembled in the Bou. levards, waiting for the,Procession, danced to !the sound of the tambourine, and to cries of ;live L'Em. pereur. Every where the people partook of their joy, and assembled to dance at several places. The Procession was equally numerous as brilliant ; a just idea of it may, in some measure, be formed by observing, that an hour and a half scarcely sof. faced to see it pass. The illuminations were every where very bril. liant. The Boulevards seemed to leave nothing to be desired in point of sight ; but the chagrin disap. peared when one was transported to the Thuilleries. The most lively imaginations cannot conceive the taste and the magnificence of this brilliant and happy evening. If any thing were wanting to complete our asto. nishment, it was the order and tranquillity which prevailed in Paris. The general happiness was not interrupted by any accident. ( Bulletin de l'Eurote.) PARIS, Dec. 4. —The second day of the Corona. tion Fetes had not the charafier of that memorable day which had preceded it; but they had that which were proper—that of a public rejoicing. The movements of a people running from plea. sure to pleasure, had succeeded solemn pomp ; a common dress, to that of costume ; popular sports, to ceremonies ; and instead of brilliaN processions, we . had art immense population spread upon the cloaks, the public places, the promenades, and the Boulevards, where all sorts of diversions were going on. A fine and clear day rendered more brilliant this assemblage r►f people, which extended from the Im. perial Palace to the extremity of the Boulevard St. Antoine. The multitudes were drawn to different points at the same instant, and the immense extent of the Boulevards presented the coup d'ail of a continued promenade. • In the morning the Herald at Arms proceeded through all the principal places of the city, anti dis tributed on their passage an enormous quantity of medals of different sizes, destined to commemorate this epoch of the Coronation—on one side of these medals is the figure of the Emperor, bearing the crown of the Caters, with this legend--Napolreu Empereur ; on the reverse we read-e.Le.Staat et le Peuple. These words explain the meaning of the ailegnrical design on the reverse, where is seen a figure clothed in the attributes of magistracy, and one of a warrior, borne on a buckler, and new clothed with the Imperial attributes. The eager- . ness to obtain these medals was extreme.' On the Place de la Colcarde tiro*: four halls, forming oblongs •of antique arehltedure, destined for walzes. From.this place to the 'extremity of the Boulevards extended long and brilliant cot dons of, illuminated garlands. The gates of Saint Dennis and Saint Martin, behind which brilliant illuminations terminated, the view offered a very beautiful caup emit. The Place de la Concorde, the Hotel de la Marine, and adjoining hi:4l9es, the Palaces of the Legislative 404, an►d the Legion of Honour, displayed a galaxy of light. Daring the whole day, sports of every description along the whole extent of the :Boulevards, singularly amused the speaators ; there were seen a numerous corps of musicians, executing fanfaronades and mili. tary marches ; these groups of singers making the place resound; exercises of every description ; Theatres at short distances ; Pantomimes and Buf. forts, excited every where attention and pleasure. • In the evening the crowd insensibly filed off to. wards the Champs Elysees, the Thuilleries, and all the points where they could see easily, and without confusion, a fine artificial fire.work, let off from the Bridge of Concorde._ No accident happened to cloud this agreeable day, order and the most puled tranquillity reigned every where, and every where was seen that calm and peaceable gaiety, that innocent liberty, which cha raflersises a happy people.—(lllonitear.) Then follows a Programme for the distribution, on the sth, of the colours, and the imperial eagles to the deputation of the Army. They were to be pre. rented by the Emp►ror on his Throne. Admiral CORNWALL IS, with the Channel Fleet, r eturned so Torbay' on Wednesday last, and we hope remained there, as they would thereby escape the dreadful 'gale of last Diet.- The repetition of arguments, founded upon a partial knowledge of the faCts - of the case, which ‘yc observe in most of the Morning Papen, respett. jng the Spanish diScussions, we consider as useless lit lent, if not intnicious, We suppose that it II a Morning Print is emboldened to say, " As tritha :Preparations in 'the Spanish Ports, nobody now ventures to speak of a thing so notoriously torfrunied. This method of getting rid of an argument which you cannot answer, or of a fat that makes against you, is not now new, nor is it fa the first time praCtised by that Morning Paper. We deem it unnecessary to say any thing more upon this part of the subjett, than to re.avert, positively, and fresh undoubted information, that the insufficiently ac. counted for Armaments in the Spanish Ports have been a principal, and unquestionably first cause of our condua towards Spain, and of the War which is perhaps Arcady commenced. The Public wilt soon have the means of judging of the truth of oar assertions. /Ph, our honour is to be " touch more grievatl ly n.uouseled" by the Subsidy paid by Portugal to France, than by that which is submitted to 117 Spain, we are quite at a Loss to understand. *We have before said, that being ignorant of the coarse of the Negotiation under the late Ministers, We knew nut whether the point of honour wers, " °l to be new made part of the.CfretliDna were nor, But surely, as to the real injury, it 0" 1 16nic : little importance to consider, whether th e 131 "1 Power :hew a hostile mind or not ; whether exaftly what she is constrained to do, and I' 4 m ore; and qatether it be, or be not,. within her WO materially to affecl onr Security' and interests ? Until the Opposition Writer can pave his asser tion of there being no hostile Armament on the ua part of Spain, it will be unnecessary to answer the q tion•—" How can it he sh own that a War. with Spain is in self-defence 1" We leave the suhjea he re, con fi dent that 1 0,510 canoe it. is not necessary to create prejuciice:sl or, under the pretence of discu s si on, to state ,the Jolt of a case. a - _ Yesterday m)rning Ms M,,,185TE,. atteadect,P, mach c_Essi s to s t the H s a i t A is faa antii on Ai.tCLIA,of lIIS General Ft rzwy, went to Windsor Great l'ar,ccr to inspect the Oxfordshire Blues.
