of the procession at the end of Great George-atra,t
the view of the itntromse7riea of heads which rolkst
along behind as far as the eye could roach. and ter-
urinating in Old Palacuyard as in a harbour,
was truly gnuid and impressive. The carriao- -
passed through the first barrier drawn across the
street, the bar being opener! the instant of their
orrrival, but notwithstanding the exertions of ii
numerous poise of peace officin, it was itirpriasible
to close it ugain ; artier the laid carriage had
pasard. the people rueheaLior like a torrent, and im-
mediately filled op the space ierelosed between the
two harrier.. The pressure ut that point was dread-
ful, but we did not barn that nary seniors, accident
occarred, tither there or in ally part of the line ref
the procession, though there could riot be leas than
300,000 'persons collected in that apace. At half-
past ten unlock her Majesty alighted at the door
specially almontted for her, leafing to the 11011441
of Lords.
Torre was no crowd about this doer; very few
hail been enabled to pas. the batriers, and those
who were precut believed in the most decorous
wanner towarels the civil authorities red the mili-
tary force. They loudly loitered her MAJESTY.
When her MAJESTY's carriage drew op, the regi-
ment of Guards, who were the only folders at tins
time 011 the spot, presented arms, by command of
their Officers. The royal salute was played. At
the Qireera's entrance door, ready to recto ie her
MAJESTY, were statioued some of the Lords' mars
shelmen, with their bromic and in their scarlet
uniforms. Beyond their] were some special con-
stables, under the immediate director', of M.
LEE, the High Constable, in ihe dour-wit• ware
oilmen; of the Hogue, and in the centre of them ap-
peared Sir T. TYRWHITT. with the rod and cot.

stood en each side of the coach door, sod opened
it. Lady ANN HAMILTON first descended, am I
she pruceeded through the officers in wait ii g into
the first room, the l'eer.' rubiog-room. lit' this
time all the QUEEN's Counsel had descended. from
the Lords and appeared in the doorsway. 'Ehey

ticulerly mentioned, were allowed to be in the first

paused Yor a short time, lo iked round her with
much complacency, sod then Curtsied and bowed
to those aroond her to an affable mousier. Thu
crowd on the outside had now cansiderobly iiicrras-
ed, as many had forced their way through the bassi
riers and passed the constables. They buttered Ettit
lustily, mad many exclaiued—" Goal send your
Alaje sty • good deliverance !"—The QUEEN haw.
ing looked round her for to slant tune, entered the
outer apartments of the Howse of Lords, cooduei.

WHITT shall Mr. BROUGHAM. They proceestdd
through the Peers' robing-room, along the ttaesayee
leading thence to the staircase up which the Peers
paws ti, the body of the House of Lairds. Hev MA-
JESTY was led up this flight of stairs, and coodacts
ed to the upper side entrance appropriated to their
Lordships rued the officers attached to the LOAD
CHANCELLOR. This is on the left-hand side of
the Throue, which is entirely uucovered foe the oc-
casion.

rived at Seim Jaimersetepuire, from Brandeuburgb
House, where her MeeEsti slept last night. Tire
people ettietnltled in the squire greeted her 'snivel with
the most enthusseatie cheers, the clapping of hiuuls,
and the waving of hats kitil handkerchiefs. Her
MAJESTY graciously repressed her gratitude by
frequent inclinations of her head, and on alighting
from her traveliiiig rarrtage. repeatedly bowed to
the assembled rataltitud.l as she ascended the steps
its front of her house. The herring still conti-
nues', and her MAJESTY appeared at the wiatlow
anktepeated her grateful ackutroledgrneutti.
The new stete carriage, of which a :lignite de-
scription wits gieeer in tatt Paper or'yeitri&e. croon
afterwards drore into the square. The splendour of
its appearance excited entvental admiration. The
people seemed pleated at !teeing the royal arms
magnificently emblazoned upon the carnage, and
the servants clothed in the splendour of the royal
livery.
At ten o'clock precisely her ltfeJeSTlr ascended
her state carriage amidst the Hetet enthusiastic
cheers of the people. It is impossible to describe
the animation of the scene at this moment. Every
hat was si tttt iltaneously waved in the air. every voice
seemed emulously exerted to express the affectionate
vest and sympathy of the iminenee multitude. Se-
veral of the neighbouring windows were filled with
ladies of rank. and the constant waving of white
handkerchiefs testified the sympathy of many a fair
bosom in the afflictions that pres-ed eosin their
Qualm. The cheering that commenced in the
square was communicated like wildfire to the mul-
titude in l'all-mall, by whom it was prolonged
during the entire length of the street. Her
MAJESTY looked in excellent health. The ride
from the country had 'given the glom of ewer.
else to her countenance, and the nstural elasti-
city of her mind enabled her to displky at so inter-
esting. yet so painful a moment, her accustomed
good spirits. But it 'bete a heart in the empire
not utterly devoid of sentlibility, that will not throb
with a more than usual intensity of feeling at the
thought of what must et th it moment hive
been priming, in the mind of her Meat:STY ?
—At that instant her mind might have hurried
in rapid review over the simile vicissitud.s of
her life—over afflictions in private. acid the
sufferings she had heen muds to experience in
public; she might have contrasted in prospect the
brightness of triumph with the possibility of de-
feat. and have suffered a struggle between the
eestacy.ettendent upset the pe, and the disgrace
and Misery that Must accompany the other.
The procession now moved slowly forward. A
plain bevelling carriage tread first. in which was
Mr. Ald. WOOD alone. The state-carriage, drswu
by six beautiful bey horse., next advanerd. In
this sat her MAJESTY, with Lady ANN flastierott.
Another plain carriage followed, in la hich were
Sir WILLIAM! GEL?. and the Hon. BEIZELEY
CRAYaN, her MAJESTY'S Gentlemen in Waiting
when on the Continent. The multitude accurst-
partying her MAJESTY in the procession, end the
crowds that lined the street*, never for an instant
ceased cheering. chapping hand% or waving hats.
They filled the whole body of the street, and
closely envelnped her MAJESTY'S carriage.
The windows were universally filled with
every one of whont waved a handkerchief in honour
of the Queen. Thousands of voices exclaimed
" God bless her !•'—" God grant her a glorious tri-
umph !" As her MAJESTY app reisehest Carbon-
house, the people seemed extremely enkious to as-
certain the manner in which the sentin-le there sta-
tioned would receive her ; and the crowd simulta-
neously stopped, funning a right-lined open s;etre,
extending from the flee sentry-hot towards the di-
rection of the Queen's carriage. The soldier on
duty brought his musket to the charge. as if far the
irurpose of marking he desire that this line should be
preserved, and. the people carefully seconded his
wishes. He then restored his musket to the rest
on his amt ; and when her Majesty's leading horses
mune in froiit the sentinel presented arms. Her
MAJEsTY graciously bowed, and the penile cheered
the soldier. The same was repeated by the second
sentinel, and received by the people with the ssole
demonist:taken of their satisfaction.
Front Clearing-craw the crowd and pressure be-
came tremendous, front the jetectinti of the 'Mai.
tiond persons poured itt from the Strand, and the
immense numbers who had been stationed in the
open space near the equestrian statue of Cu A &LIS I.
Not only were the windows crowded principally with
eh-gently stressed females, waving their white hand-
kerchiefs, but on the outside of the houses, whey
a projecting commending point presented ittelf, it
was eagerly occupied. On the leads of a shop at
Chsring-cro.s we observed Sir Hosea? Wii.sott
and some other Member* of the House of Com-
mon*: the Gallent General stood hare-headed, and
bowed respectfully ea her Mee lISTY 'II carriage

Yesterday being appointed by the House of
Lords for the commencement of the proceedings
against the Queen, and it being generally known
that her MAJESTY was resolved to appear in person,
riming the trial, et the bar of their Lordships'
House, an immense crowd of people assembled
at an early hour in front of her -MAJESTY'S
house in St. James's-square, to testify their
sympathy on her MAJESTY'S suffering., or to gra-
tify their curiosity in witnessing the procession.
The people gradually increased from seven until 10
o'clock, when they not only filled the space directly
in front of the house, hut completely occupied every
part of the square, with the exception of the enclosed
cultivated space in the centre, which was guarded
by constables. Repeated cheer. spoke the anxious
feeling in favour of her MAJESTY, which pervaded
this enormous mass of people, while prayers for her
success, and execrations I, deep and loud" against
those individuals who are considered to be her ene-
mies, evineed the sentiments too generally entertain-
ed respecting. the conduct pursued by the Ministers
towards her MAJESTY. A crowd, not less numer-
ous, lined the streets on both aides, along Pall-
mall, Cockspur-street, Charing-cross, • Whitehall,
and Parliament-street. A large concourse was
formed around the statue of Charles I. at Charing-
cross; every dour way was crowded, rows of car-
riages were drawn up at each aide of the streets, all
of which were occupied within and without, and
grouper of females, some elegantly dressed, graced
the windows of every house along the whale line-of
her MAJESTY'. intended route. The streets were
kept by a strong party of mounted constables, armed
with swords and pistols, and large posses of con-
stables on foot occupied various stations, or pa-
troled the streets to prevent confusion or accident.
A strong party of the Horse Guards were drawn up
in line, about nine o'clock, in the open apace at
Old Palace-yard, ready, if occasion required, to
assist the Civil Power, awl a regiment of Foot
Guards, at about half-past nine, marched down
Parliament-street towards the House of Lords fur
the same purpose, and in pursuance of the Address
voted by the House to his NIAJEsTY. The
strop;; wooden barriers formed across the upper
extremity of Abiingdon-street, on the one side of the
House of Lords, and across Palace-yard front St.
Margaret's Church to the King's Bench Record
Office on the other. effectually excluded the popu-
lace from the interior space, aud facilitated the ap.
proach of Peers' carriages. The ut:nost regularity
every where prevailed, and not the slightest dim's).
Intim was in any Iran niiti&sted by the people to
disturb the tranquillity and peace of the city.
Piccadilly Ist an earl hour displayed a scene of
as mach bustle and animation as even Pall-mall
and Charing-cross, from the expectation of her
MAJESTY'S passing through that street on her way
from Braindenburgh House to Sr. James's-srprire.
Her Majesty% carriage was quickly recognised as
it entered Piccadilly, and the cheers of the people
accompanied her through Piccadilly, until the car-
riage stopped in St. James's-square.
At seven o'clock Mr. LEE the High Constable of
Westminster, with a body of constables, came
upon the ground. The force under the immediate
control of Mr. LEE amounts to about eighty con-
stables; but this number was extended by those
provided from several parishes, the police offices,
&c. There were near 1.000 constables on duty.
The firemen of the different offices were also on
duty, and spread about in different parties.
The LORD CHANCELLOR arrived at the Home
of Lords at a quarter pest eight o'clock. The
Peers then began to arrive in tolerably quick suc-
cession. Some of them were loudly cheered as they
passed. Among those thus noticed by the crowd
was Lord HOLLAND. At half-past nine o'clock the
Duke of Wet.i.mitori arrived on horseback. His
reception was not so flattering—be was received
with loud groans, hisses, and hooting; hut there if
no truth in the report that any personal violence
was offered to his Grace. The Duke of YORK
appeared oil horseback shortly after, and was
greeted with kind cheers. which his Royal High-
ness acknowledged by taking off his hat several
times. It is generally understood that his
Royal Highness took every possible pains and exert-
eel all his influence to prevent the present proeras.
Out his arrival, the Ist regiment of Foot Guards
presented arms, the drums performing the royal
sal ate. The Royal Duke then alighted, and walk.
ed to the dour of the House of Lord.. The Duke
of Leftism also arrived on horirbeek, and was
linidly cheered. The Earl of Donotionowas ar.
rived also on horieback, but being suable to mike
