to provide ail for the receptioo of their Royal
111;sirese. The boners in Cottoo-gardeo occupied

by Sir THOMAS Toeviotor, Mr. LEY, and other
officers of the House of Lords, are the places ap-

The late occupsurs were obliged to turn out
yesterday, and their quitting upon such short
notice produced no little hassle and confirsion.—
Cotton-garden is situate at the rear of the western
angle of the House of Lords, to which it is ap-
proached by a narrow plumage from the eastern end
of Abingdon-street. A situation more completely
from public approach, and more ctinve-
isient fur ingress and egress to the interior of the
House of Lord', cannot be conceiver+. It has been
therefore most judiciously chosen by Ministers for
the seat of the Italian witnesses, and at the same
time furnishes a complete answer to that part of the
argumeitt against the QUEEN'S request for a list of
the witnesses to be produced against her 114sJesex,
founded upon the danger of exposing them, if
tu. tempt-6,4g and intimidation. Cotton-
garden is also the site of the newly-constructed
kitchens, ',cutleries, and other edifices necessary
for furnishing the grand dinner in Westminster
Hall on the ensuing coronation. These winks
were completed yesterday, and all further ac-
cess to the scene is now entirely cut off. The
long flagged-passage from the western mod of
the House of Lords, by which the Westminster
scholar, have the privilege of access to their
bouts on the river, was also blocked up yesterday
by order of Csooernenent. As soon as the new
tenants begin to arrive, a strong guard will be
placed at the entrance.
The meeting of the Freeholders of Middlesex,
held yesterday at Hackney, for the purpose of con-
sidering of the propriety of presenting an Address
of Condolence and Congratulation to the Qualm,
was unusually numerous and highly respectable.
It etas such a meeting as must silence for ever the
illiberal and absurd assertions of those who, in the
lice of the strongest testimony, say that noise have
addressed her MAJESTY since her return to Eng-
land but persons of no weight or consideration in
their respective neighbourhoods. The meeting will
not held in the open air, a circumstance upon
which we are- Induced to lay the greater emphasis,
front the repeated assertions made by Ministers
in Pailiament, that an enclosed space, secured
from the immediate.actioss of the elements, was
the only place calculated for collecting the deli.
