COMMON COUNCIL.
THE QUEEN'S QUEEN'S VISIT TO ST. PAUL'S.
'I to Lord Mayor stated, that he had a conuttunication
to make to the Court—her Majesty's intimation of her
intended visit to St. Paul's Cathedral.—(Cheers.)—
Three letters from the Hon. K. Craven to the Lord
Mayor w-re then read. The first, dated Nov. 17. an-
nounced her Majesty's intention of going to St. Paul's
on Sunday week. '.'he second dated Nov. 18, acknow-
ledged the teczipt of a letter from the Lord Mayor. And
the third, dated Nov. 19, stated, that her Majesty
having learned—a fact of which she was not previously
aware—that divine service was performed in St. Paul's
Cathedral three times a week, • Wiest, had re. 14411.•

and te.tiquillity of the Sabbath- lay.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. Fare!l moved, that the letters be entered on the
min• les of the co-ort.—(Hear, hear!)
Mr. T. N. ' '. illia• us conjured the Coon to beware how

the Lord Mayor he instrixted to attend her Alajesty in a

Mr 'l'. N. V..illiams ak,ain declarer, that the proceed-
ing was pregnant with t• ischief.—(Loud latgh.cr.)—
The mere cut tinily to s:e her Alajesty would create coo-
fu.ion. Lut what WAS the Object of her Majesty in
I going to St. Paul's? (Order, rir..er !) He did not wish to
attribute improper motives; but many lives might be
lost in consequence of the curiosity it ...t would be ex
cited. (Laughter.) And the orrinaation attending in
note would promote confusion; perhaps many lives
might be lost. Was that nothing? It would also plata

even private individuals had a right to do; besides, what
would be said if her Majesty did not openly profess the
established religion of the country. (Cheers). Ha
thought it was a very proper step, and that they were
bound to attend her Majesty with all becoining
dignity.
Mr. Jupp spoke in praise of the day having been
altered from Sunday to Wednesday. Her Majesty de-
served thanks for such change.
Mr Dixon was as glad as any one that this business
had te tttt t tated. • lie had doubts when the evidence for
the crown was adduced; but he hail none after the
Queen's witnesses had bet:nee:twitted. As to the Qoeeri's
conduct now, he thotatht her Majesty was in the hands
of bad advisers. He thought the question could not be
kept alive much longer, and the sooner the present heats
were allayed, the better would it be for her Majesty. She
would then have the resoect and support tat those in
whose estimation it svoult. he worth while to stand well.
If the processio took place, lie hoped the Magistrates
would do their duty.
Mr. Alderman Birch could not countenance any such
proceeding as the one that was now proposed.
Mr. Ewell was surprised at Alderman Birch's oppo-
sition ; it otight be ingenious, but it was not supported
by facts, aoalogy, or rea..oning.
The amembient was then put; it was negatived by an
immense show of hands being held up against it. The
original motion was afterwards put and carried by a large
show of hands, but Alcleresan Heygate and Smith called
for a division. The ttttt fibers were—
ayes, Aldermen, 2.—Comeioners, 115.—Tellers, 2.

Flower and ,Magnay, werc the six Aldermen.. .
Aldermen Wood ancl,Waithinan supported the mo-
tion.
The question respecting the appointment of a Coin-
mittee to arrange the suitable manner of receiving her
Majesty was then put, one being selected from each
Ward, besides Alit nnen.
PROWESS CLIARLOTTR'S PORTRAIT.
The Lind Mayor colnounicated alettar which he had
received Gotta Alderman Weed. announcing that it was
goo wish to present to the city of London, a
4edas.et her late amiable daughter, the Princess Char-
lone.—(Cheers.)
Mr. Sheriff Williams observed, that they had daily
more reason to deplore the loss of that excellent Princess.
(Hear.) He moved that the Lord Mayor be directed to
answer the gracioas consul tttt icatioa of her Majesty. ex-
pressing the readiness of the Court .0 n..:"much Paint-
ng.—M.ition carried.
ADD:IESB TO THE QtYEEN.
The Lord Mayor then directed the requisition to be
read.
Mr. T. N. Williams put it to the Court, whether at
sop ate an hour in the day, there could be any hope of
doing justice to the important subject which was wow
proposed to be brought forward.—(l'es, yes, proceed,
proceed.)
Tine Lnrd Mayor said, he was ready to obey the
wish,? of tile Cotot.—(t 'beers.) If the business could
not be fully discussed u.-day, it might then he adjourned.
