Shit he really wanted power to express hi. feeling
neon this occasion. He was even happy dist his
swam of expression arose from the warmth of his
firebugs, which rendered him incompetent to utter
what he ahoeld wish to say upon such an occasion.
Ile could, however, my that he did not deserve this
ilarb, 4 their attention; and if, as an amities eerie.

their arrangements—for in no other capacity, (Iry-
pug neither duty nor right, could he interfere—
he had either attracted or deserved their notice, he
bad may to my, that he had hod an easy task, for he
!tad to eommunicate with megistretes who were
willing sad easy to command, and who had to deal
%with a people who were most ready to obey.—(Laud

st.glwat share in these happy arrangements, would
always be to him a matter of the deepest pride.—

SUNDAY moaripo.
THE KIRKING.
A. the King's renseinsiog at Dalkeith during the
preceding Sunday heel. as we remarked, given of-
fence to his Presbyterian Deans and Chaplains; and
as this had, it may he, been heightened by the
strong spice of the old Jacobite tenets and feeling.
which were infused into the Episcopalian Address
which had been presented on Monday. it had been
arranged that Ins Majesty should this day listen to
the simple and primitive service of the Scottish
Kirk. As there is a permanent thermic in the
High Kiik for the accommodation of the King's
Itepreseniative during the sittings of the General
Assembly, no new erection was requisite in that
Kirk. The throng of people wishing for admis-
sion was. however. so great, that admission had
to be granted by tickets. for which pretty high
prices were offered. The Kin; came from Holy-
rood in a carriage and six. entered the church at
bell after eleven, and seated himself on the
throne, surrounded by his courtier,, nobles. and
officers of state. When he entered the people stood
sip, and continued so during the reading of the
introductory psalm. The sermon was one of consi-
derable power and eloquence, and the Very Dr.
Lamina. Moderator of the General Assembly of the
Kirk, did not make a single allusion to his royal
hearer. The discourse wee a fine specimen of Pres-
byterian sermonizing, and it was only in his con-
eluding prayer that the preacher alluded to the ho.
riour of the royal visit. The service was not long,
and immediately after it was over the King set out
for Dalkeith. The conduct of the people both out-
side rod inside the church. was to the full as cliame.
tensile as that upon any of the preceding occasions.
The assembled people in the street lifted their hats
and bowed respectfully as the King paused along;
tout neither from those there. nor from those within
the church, was there any shout, or even the smal-
lest noise. The solemn and dignified stillness
which pervaded the whole brought back to one's
view the Sabbaths that have long gone by; and if
the King had reason to say, that on account of their
week-day conduct they were all ladies and gentle-.
men, he must have felt, from their conduct on this
Sabbath, that they ate a nation of Christians. If
in their other conduct they have put an end to the
calumny of sedition, in this they have put an end
to that of infidelity and profaneness.
SUNDAY, FITZ O'CLOCK.
The King departs I« Hopetoun House ow Thurs.!
day morning, whence he will pass on board the
Neel; and sail immediately.
