THE t, TRUE SUN" IS NOW

INCORPORATED.

LONDON:
THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 29, 1838.

Our Journal of this day commemorates the Coro-
nation of her MAJEITY, by appearing in a golden
dress. We claim little more merit for this splendid
specimen of the united arts of engraving and printing,
than having most diligently exerted ourselves to lay
it before cur readers. To the great ingenuity of
the firm of De La Rue and Co., to the perseve-
rance and exertions of Messrs. CLOWES and Son, to
the great skill of Mr. EDWARD Wyoe the modeller,
and to the talents of one of the first engravers of the
age—to all these gentlemen combined we arc in-
debted for the great beauty which our journal this
day exhibits. The zeal of all the gentlemen we
have mentioned, and iu particular, M. De La
Ws, in rendering us assistance, is above cur
praise, and seemed dictated by a conviction that
their own honour was concerned in our success.
Our readers may form woe idea of the exertions
and expense necessary to attain our object, when
we state tiot it has required the united labour
of three large establishments, comprising he-
weeu two and three hundred persons. Our publication
is a proof that our. exettionshave not beer. in vain. and
the very handsome manner in which three of our
Morning Contemporaries have done us the honour
to speak of the specimen we laid before them, is
an earnest of that praise we hope to deserve from
the public at large.
We have unfortunately to regret that an accident,
wholly unexpected, and which might have linppeted
at any time to almost any printing completed by
machinery, will prevent us from pre; aring to-
night the large numbers for which we have a
demand. All our Subscribers we shall serve to-
night; but the Public at large must have pa-
tience with us. By Saturday, we hope to
continue our publication, and from that time for-
ward we shall be ready to answer all the immense
demand, already tar exceeding our expectation, and
amounting to nearly a quarter of a million, which
may be made,
For ourselves, we shall briefly say that we
have no other object in view than to please that
public which we have ever found an indulgent
and encouraging employer I and, to do honour
to that day on which the Nation's QUERN has vowed at
the Altar and before her assembled people to p: e-
serve the Nation's liberties, and, with God-like
attributes, to do justice, tempered with mercy.

Among the distinctions conferred in honour "at
auspicious event which theZritislvlrtOan is this day
celebrating, with a joy as eep as it is universal,
there is none that the public will consider better
deserved, or more appropriately bestowed, titan that
which advances Lord DuNots to the Earldom of
Zetland. The Noble Earl possesses extensive pro-
perty in the county of Orkney, of which Zetland forms
the larger and more populous portion ; as well as the
patronage of almost all the churches in both the dis-
tricts ; and he has used the power derived from these
111Ourcsa in such a manner as to endear himself to the
inhabitants in general. But strong as these claims
m 47 be, the 7 are in our view far inferior to that
which the Noble Earl derives from having, during
the course of a long life, adhered inflexibly, through
good report and bad report, to those liberal poli-
tical principles with which he set out in his
youth, and to which her Gracious MeJes-ry is
well-known to be eerdially and firmly attached.
This Earldom, though a new creation in the British
Peerage, is notwithstanding of very ancient date;
And it is a circumstance not peel ap; generally
known, that the blood of the first Earl of Crkney
and Zetlarel, ROGNVALD, or noNeen, of Neer',
in Norway, flows in the sinus of Queen Viceonte.
