LONDON:
FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 27, 1837.

The worthy citizens of London are all on the qui
vive about the approaching visit of her MAJESTY to
Guildhall. Were the metropolis threatened with in-
vasion they could not possibly be more on the alert,
or more earnest in the way in which they discuss the
great question. Committees sit daily ; the Common
Council is bursting with importance ; the Court of
Aldermen is all nervousness and anxiety. We ar-
dently hope, considering the amazing pains that are
being taken to give eclat to the Royal visit, that all
will go off with becoming dignity ; though we must con-
fess we have our fears, when we find that a picked troop
of Common Councilmen are to meet her Majesty at the
gates of Temple-bar mounted on chargers ! Are
these worthy citizens aware of the frightful risks to
which they are about to expose themselves ? Have
they no dim anticipations of a toss over the horse's
head into the mud, or of their being obliged to cling
with both arms round his neck for protection, to the
endangering of all due dignity and decorum ? Some
of them.—as we learn by the debates—are left-handed ;
who then shall undertake to say that, in the enthusiasm
of the moment, these patriotic equestrians will not
mount with their heads to their charger's tail ? We
throw out these hints in no disrespectful spirit, but
simply because Sir PETER LAURIE has already
publicly declared his conviction that the majority of the
Deputies never crossed the back of a horse in their
lives I But these arc not the only awkward contin-
gencies to be apprehended. By the report of the pro-
ceedings of the Common Council, which took place
yccterday, we perceive that the Committees arc in a
grievous state of perplexity as regards the momentous
question of " bottlemen." Some members are for
having none but practised " waiters" to attend upon
the guests ; others for appointing none but " gentle-
men" to that distinguished office. How the discus-
sion will terminate, we cannot tell ; but we hope there
will be a majority in favour of the waiters ; for other-
wise the " gentlemen-bottlemen will be very apt to
create a glorious confusion in the Hall, and instead of
helping others, to sit down and help themselves.
When Peregrine Pickle, says Smollett, assumed on one
occasion the disguise of a servant, his quality was at
once detected, by his replying to some orders of his sup-
posed master, with " d—n your eyes, I wont." So, we
fear, will it be with the " gentlemen-bottlemen." In
the excitement of the moment, they will drop their
assumed character, and allow their real one peep
out; and then, think, what a consternation would per-
vade the company, if in answer to an Alderman's de-
mand that he should take away his plate, and bring a clean
one, the " gentlemen-bottlemaii" at his elbow, indig-
nant at such a mandate, should reply with the dis-
guised Peregrine, " d—n your eyes, I wont I"
This is a matter worthy the gravest consideration ;
for the occasion is most important, atv!, one on which--
to parody the famous signal of Lord NELSON at
Trafalgar—" London P'...peets that every Common-
Councilman shall 0,0 his duty." With regard to the
proposal made iresterday by one of these worthy citizens,
that they should curtail the land procession, but
" maintain the dignity of the City on the water," we
shall merely express a hope that the Conservator of the
Thathes will take all proper precautions for its safety—
that it is not set on fire ; for when such a prodigious
amount of hazing civic intellect is afloat, there is no
knowinii what may happen !
Under the head ' Ireland," in another column, will
be seen two communications from Mr. O'CoNNELL ;
both of which, from the deeply important matters to
whiekthey relate, demand an attentive perusal. The
iettin. addressed to Lord CLONCURRY is confirmatory
Of Mr. O'CONNELL'S expressed intention of holding
a meeting in Dublin of the Irish Members and Peers
before proceeding to the Imperial Parliament. The
following passage is significant :
" That Session (the approaching Session) may then ter-
minate our present struggle ; but that struggle can only
terminate in our complete success."
The other communication of Mr. O'CoxNELL, to
which we invite attention, is the letter addressed to
the Secretary of the General Association of Ireland, re-
commending the dissolution of that body. Mr.
O'CortrIELL, by thus putting down agitation,
4fr0i,1i,,4.i" think, the most unequivocal proof
of h'rs"riailii49s.,to leave the cause of the Irish people
iu the hands of tf-favourable Government." We trust 1
