MARRIAGE

ITER MAJESTY.

THE SUN" OF MONDAY EVENING
CONTAINS TWO BEAUTIFUL
MEDALLION PORTRAITS
OF
THE QUEEN

AND
PRINCE ALBERT,
EXECUTED IN THE VERY FIRST
STYLE OF THE ART. THE LIKE-
NESSES ARE PRONOUNCED BY
COMPETENT JUDGES TO BE AD-
MIRABLE.
THE EXPENSE OF PRODUCING
THESE PORTRAITS HAS BEEN
VERY GREAT; BUT THE CHARGE
IS ONLY ONE SHILLING.
THE SUN, CONTAINING THESE
PORTRAITS, MAY BE RECEIVED
BY POST IN ALL PARTS OF THE
KINGDOM. PARTIES IN REMOTE
PLACES CAN REMIT A SHILLING
OR TWO, HALF A SOVEREIGN, OR
A SOVEREIGN,-FOR ONE PENNY
BY THE POST ; AND THEIR OR-
DERS WILL BE PUNCTUALLY AT-
TENDED TO.
THE SUN ALSO CONTAINS A FULL
ACCOUNT OF THE AUGUST CERE-
MONY, WITH ALL PARTICULARS
APPERTAINING TO SO INTERES-
TING AN OCCASION.
ORDERS FOR THE " ROYAL WED-
DING SUN" WILL BE RECEIVED
BY ALL NEWS-AGENTS AND POST-
MASTERS THROUGHOUT THE
KINGDOM, AND AT " THE SUN"
OFFICE, 112, STRAND, LONDON.

The demand for the ROY AL WEDDING
SUN on Monday was beyond all precedent. The
Printing Machine, which is one of the best in
London, was at work from the hour of publica-
tion till the departure of the Mail, throwing
61'7,000 per hour ; and even this vast number
was not equal to the demand. We may say it
without vanity, because it is truth, that in all
the history of the Newspaper Press there never
was such a quantity of Newspapers published
within the saoe time.

NOTICE TO THE i` WEDDING SUN"
SUBSCRIBERS;

We have received numerous letters compkiping of the
non-arrival of the " ROYAL WEDDING SUN.'
We regret the disappointment of Subscribers, and
repeat that the blame does not attach to this Office.
Every order has been attended to, and it is remark-
able, under all circumstances, that so few Papers
have miscarried. Our readers will be surprised to
learn that, though several letters were sent without
the address of the writers, and many thousands of
Papers were despatched in great hurry and confu-
sion, both here and at the General Post-office, not
more than a hundred have failed to reach their
destination. In order, however, to oblige our Sub-
scribers, we 'quest Anse who have not received the
Paper according to order, to advise us to that 4'41,
and it shall be sent again without alty Additional
Charge.

N.B.—On all occasions of great emergency or public
interest, we have received similar complaints of
the non-arrival of THE SUN. Whether this is
to be attributed to Me Port-office, or to some cf the
Parties through whose hands the Papers ought to
pass, we cannot take upon ourselves to say.

LONDON:
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1840.

'Sir ROBERT INGLIS, it is well known, is the
mere creature of the priesthood ; he represents them
in Parliament. All the rest of the persons who
are making the present stir to get more Church
consist either of the priesthood themselves, or their
creatures. Under this head, we may class the great
majority of the Members of both Houses of Par-
liament, who have been educated almost exclu-
sively by the priesthood. On a question, therefore,
which involves their character, and has for its ob-
ject to
inincrease their revenues, they and their crea-
tures,and out of Parliament, are by no means
impartial and disinterested judges. We protest,
tberefore, against the Members of Parliament and
the priesthood being suffered to decide the question
of Church Extension by themselves.
In all bargains he is considered no better than a fool
