.. •
Nojeety, rests gusolue, exalted majesty, always evokes
grace sod bower with hie own Amid, send the coarse plebeins
tan from a vulgar massy arm, though clothed in gold (for
it does not eves amount to an err), of this usedal, though
magailietatly denominated " • Coronation Medal," sprier
isie fsom the forge of the Meister of the Mist, wean not the
fainted shadow of the distiaguished grace which 'lose can
give any value, oi possibly create • dabs of acceptance, se
an Moose or mark of distinction; sad this negative con-
structios is Rosily stresgthesed sod rendered cosclusive,
because the same medal, of the same pecuniary value, sod
with the same design, and bearing the same impression, is
openly exposed and advertised foe sale, at public markets
to any individual, foreign or dolomitic,- who chooses to mi.
amassed to possess it. This could not possibly be the am it
the presentation was accompanied by the exalted erste sad
favour of his Majesty, although thiknmedal may beer some-
thing
of an impressible like his Majesty's bearvokat counts
ounce, as dolls every new-roitied slsillitag or sixpence which
has been issued since his Majesty's joyful accession to the
threat. It is, therefore, to be derisively Concluded, that,
destitute, as this medal is, of his Majesty's grace sad fa-
vour, the property can neither be issued from his Majesty's
Privy Purse, nor by his Majesty's warrant Soder tire sign
manual, ever, and at all times, indispensably accessary to
avert violation of Ant, and breach of trust, and to saintion
official condact against the charge of treason.
Further, it is a voila of most serious emeideratioa, that
royal favours are never bestowed on unworthy olljoets ; sod
woodsy objects, meaning individuals of high birth, high
Wooer, and exalted notions of tirtue and majesty, can
sever humble themselves to fe-I any favour as royal, which
is woe accompanied end made royal by the personal sod
graceful act of majesty itself. In this ;amour* of the dis-
tribution of a Coronation Medal it is manifest (bat majesty,
royally, grace, and favour, are wholly absent from this vulgar
1088 of this Medal from the Mint forge to the Members of
the House of Commons; or, if nut so shsent, ell these
splendid attributes of nesjcsiy are at open market, and,
aMile in season, to be sordidly sold, like fish, flesh, or fowl,
to any individual, subject or alien, friend or foe.
I•_ Again, the feelings of another class of society are to be
weighed, as not the least or last is merit, honour, and ex-
alted *otiose of virtue and majesty, which ought never
to be separated, nor of less iodination to their own, their
own exemplary dignity and proud integrity, however living
in splendid humility at a respectable distance from the
. Courts of Kings and Princes ; I mean a slam of society,
whose families have been accustomed, in hems of virtue
and merit, to be hungered with the protection, counte-
nance, and personal lineation or royalty, and to receive
favours horn the gracious hind of majesty itself. This
virtuous and dignified claim never received royal favour fur
it's diamond, it's gold or silver value! Impossible! With.
out the grace sad order of majesty and royalty, there
was no valve, there was no attempt at favour, di-
rect or indirect ; no counivance 10 exhibit it, where it was
neither wanted nor d ed. Nothing was left open to false
interpretation ; nothing left to deceitful construction; no
disguised insult was presumed to be utrrrecl. But, what
hare we nut in the confident design befute us, in this
coinage scheme of the Muter of the Mint. My family be-
long to this last class of society. We have received the
royal immonities of several reigns, all delivered by the
graceful bend of Majesty itself. How, then, can I be ex-
pected. without submitting to dishonour myself and con.
oentincto disgrace my family, eves to Monk at the present
liberality of the Master of the Mint's araochalast vulgar
toss, which I hold to be derogatory to the exalted dignity of
