THE KING.

[FRUM TAE DUBLIN CO/tRESPONDICNT, AUGUST TO.]

THE CATHEDRAL.--Yesterday his MAJ
attended Divine Service at Christ Church. The
King set out from the Phoenix Park soon after
eleven o'clock. The Royal party occupied four
carriages,' which, with a praisewdi-thy attention
to the public convenience in these mdisients of joy
and exultation, and to prevent, as Much as poS-
sible, accidents in a crowd, were Only,drawu by
two horses each, by the express order of our most
gracioui Sovereign. In the first carriage were 4
Gentlemen of his Majesty's Household ; in the
second were the Marquess Graham (eldest son'of
the Duke of Montrose) and Sir C. 11. Turner ;
in the third the Marquess of Londonderry and
Lord Siihnouth; and, in the fourth,'llis Majesty,
dressed in the Windsor uniform, with a star, and
accompanied by his Excellency the Lord Lieute-
nant, bearing the Sword of State, . and Sir 13.
Bloomfield. The Royal Party were escorted by
two troops of the 7th Hussars ; and it is now
superfluous to add, that his Majesty received, on
the whole line of his route, the enthusiastic ac-
clatriations of .the assembled multitude,, who
loudly cheered his Majesty as. he passed. The
King made a short -Stay at the Castle before he
went to Christ Church.- At the' latter place his.
Majesty arrived precisely at It o'clock, and was
Welcomed by the.sriost affectionate greetingS. A.
0 nard of Honour was in attendance in. front of
the great western entrance. A platform was',
erected, and crimson..cloth laid. down..o.m..the.'.
steps, and across the pavement,, to the Royal
carriage. The crown here was immense, and
consisted, in great past", of Ladies of thes first
respectability, who, though provided with
tickets, were. unable to obtain. admission—
the aisle tied body of the Church . being.
crowded nearly to suffocation. Many of
these Ladies deemed . it fortunate to have
the opportunity (which the Military Offi-
cers granted in the most gentlemanly and con-
siderati: Manner) of 'formitrg immediately behind
the line of Infantry stationed 'along the aisle to
the inner door of the Church, and thereby having
an excellent view of his Majesty as he passed
into the Church. His Majesty was received
by the 'Lord 'Bishop of Kildare, the Dean of
Christ Church, the Prebends. and. Gentlemen
of the ,Choir, and conducted to the Royal
Closet,
.whieli-,was newly decorated on this
auspicious occasion: The •King was attended
in the Closet by his Excellency the Lord Lieu-
tenant, Sir Benjamin Bloomfield, and the princi-
pal Equerries and Personages of his liouseheld.
In the seat upon his Majesty's right, and beyond
the Archiepiscopal Throne, sat the Marquis of
Londonderry and Lord Sidmouth. The Lord
Mayor, Sheriffs, and Common Council, in their
gowns, were also present.—The Service corn-;
menced at a few minutes past twelve o'clock,. ac-
cording to the selection made by his Majesty
and the Clergy. The opening was sublime; it
was Ilandel'S matchless Ossei-ture to. Sampson.
Sir Sohn Stevenson's Te Deum and Jubilate were
performed in a style of powerful execution ; and
the celebrated Antheni, by. Dr. Green, of" 0
Lord, the King sha)l rejoice in 'l'hv Strength,"
was afterwards suns-, in most effective style, by
Buggini, Smith, aneWeyman. The Communion
Service was read by the Right. Rev. the Bishop
[of Kildare, Dean of the Cathedral, assisted
by the Very Reverend Dean GreaveS and Arch-
deacon Torrens. At a quarter before two o'clock
the Archbishop of Dublin ascended the pulpit,
and preached On eloquent and impressive serrnon
—the Text taken from the 11th chapter of
Proverbs, 34th verse—" Righteousness exalted,
!a nation ; but sin is. a reptoach to any people."
—We are not la the. habit of interfering with
the regular • publication of Sermons ; but we
trust that, on an occasion like the present, his
Grace the Archbishop will excuse our attempt-
ing a brief outline of his eloquent and appropriate
Discourse, rather with a view to invite public
attention to it, than to gratify it by anticipated
publication--a publication which we sincerely
hope to see. His Grace commenced by stating,
in persiiicuous terms, his main proposition,
which he embodied from the Text—namely,
that, without 'righteousness, there was no Sals
vation for a people. lie enforced the sublime
truth, so tersely but emphatically conveyediuthe
Proverb, and took a concise and interestingsre-
vieW of the fate of the nations of antiquity,
which had fallen, because they had net righteous-
ness. Why did Babylon now exist
name ? . 'W by were its magnificent temples, and
oVerhanging gardens, and matchleig splendor,
utterly lostand traceless.? What had 'betoiskef
whose merchants. ranked as Prineeiv?2.---
loW tad Carthage fallen,. whose glory- wars°.
resplendent What had become of
,Egy.ptohe
nurse of Letters and the Arts? Where was the
magnificence of Persia ? All fallen and passed'
away as a fleeting dream, because of their not
pOsseesing righteousness. He Olen,' in a strain,,
of powerfutreasoning, skewed that the same-in-
stability which had attended the want Of. righteouss.
ness in the times of antiquity, and which had sunk
their Governthents, notwithstanding their pre-emi-
nence in philosophy, science, and art, had,. with,
equal fatality, attended those modern States,
which had attempted to subvert religion and civil
duty, and vainly establish in their place irreli-
gion and self-will. The sad historical picture
of the anarchy that so long reigned in France,
was a pregnant illustration of the abaadonment
of the moral duties prescribed by the wisdom.
of Solomon ; and the inestimable blessings which
attended an obedience to the wise .maxim, was
strikingly pourtrayed in the success and glory
which had folloSved the track of England's steady
progress. lie then happily alluded to the.
valuable 'benefits-which the people hid derived
from the reigning family, who felt, in their
several successions, that, as they had. been call-
ed to the government of 'the nation to protect
and uphold its liberties, so they were required,
by their example, and the prudence and wisdom
of their councils, to cherish and protect those
institutions which they had saved in the hour of
dismay. He then, in conclusion, touched upon,
'but with peculiar grace and unobtrusively,' and
more with the•fidelity of historic truth than in a
strain of personal allusion, the blessings which

his present Majesty had conferred upon rho
people whose destinies had been committed to
his -charge, by taking his poSition On the last
isthmus on which the standard of R?ligion
and sw.:ial
_order was planted,_ and deter-
mining to perish there, rather than . bend. to
Military despotism; and lawless but formidable
power. That • great example. had not or ly •
saved England,' but by rallying other States, •
had re=established: the liberties of the world. His
G race concluded his eloquent-. AddreSs, by in
culcating the necessity of_ religion in all relation 3
of life, civil as welias political. His'Majesty au-
dibly joined the Choir in several of the respOnseS.
The King returned to the Park amid the same
demonstrations'of loyalty and joy as-he received
in' the morning. lie continues to enjoy exceileat
health and Spirit.S.
I N LEYEE.—A feiv minutes before one
o'clocl4 his. Majesty arrived in his private car.
riage at the Castle, from the Park, accompanied
by the Marquis of Bead ford, the Lord in Wait.

-
The claim set up by Ministers to exclude the
Coroners' Juries from the. barracks, while the
soldiers are drawn up for the purpose of being
'seen by the witnesses, is utterly irreconcilable
with the ends of justice. No 'means which can
assist the Jury' in forming a correct opinion of
the nature of the evidence ought to.be denied
them. Much, in a case like the present, must
depend on the hesitating or confident manner of
the witness. We cannot say that we are asto-
nished such a claim has been set up and acted
; but we can safely say, that no man, anxious
that justice should have its fair course, would
persist in contending for it. But the whole pro-
ceedings at, the barracks—the blows and other
personal violence offered to Jurors—the harsh
treatment and confinement of the Witnesses—
...the delaying the examination _till a late hour—
the manner in which the examination was at last
'allowed to, take placeare circumstances which
Proclaim the object in view, in a manner not to
be mistaken. It would be insulting our
I.laders to suppose that they do not at
once see distinctly what that object is. But what
a state are we in, if Ministers shall be allowed
to throw all manner of impediments in the way
'of putting the laws in execution against the Mi-
fitary ? What security is there for our lives and
liberties, if the Military, after firing on, the
'people,
May shut themselves up within their bar-
racks, and throw every-impediment in the way
of identifying the guilty ? The identifying indi-
vidual soldiers must, at all times, be difficult,
from the uniformity of their dresses, and various
other circumstances. It requires no great Inge-
,,nuity, therefore, to render it nearly impossible
-ever to identify any soldier. Those who wish to
obstruct justice, have only to choose their own
time and manner of conducting the process of
investigation, and they may set the laws utterly
at defiance. They have only to adopt the pre-
cedent of Tuesday—to distract the 'witnesses, by
mixing up the individuals implicated with a great
number of others—to postpone the investigation
till a late hour, that some of the witnesses may with-
draw before it commences—and to hurry it in such
a manner, that if the lateness of the hour would
elow those who remain to identify any one, they
may not have time to do so,--The arms of the
Military make it impossible to detain them at
the time of their committing any outrage, so that
if our Tribunals are to be excluded from all ad-
mission into their fortresses for the purpose of
obtaining information, except on their own terms,
they may be considered as protected by the most
couplete impunity.

[MORNING HERALD.]
Nothing more readily or more justly excites
public indignation in this country than any at-
tempt to' obstruct the legal course of justice—,-
particularly where the subject matter of proceed-
ing is no less than the taking away of life. A
strong sensation was certainly excited yesterday
and the preceding day, by the publication of the
evidence on both inquests, and by the verbal
rumours in circulation, as to what had occurred
at the barrack's during the admission of the wit-
nesses to identify individuals of the Guards to
whom they had alluded in their evidence. The
general impression produced by the witnesses
on their return was, that several had been
refused admission, though duly provided with
tickets, 'and that some were subjected to
various Modes of embarrassment and intimi-
dation. The examinations taken yesterday,
to which we refer the reader, tend strongly
to correct this impression--particularly that-of
Mr. Birnie, the Magistrate, and of the Adjutant
on duty. It appears that some of the witnesses
made gross mis-statements—whether wilfully or
not, we do not presume to say, (they were cer-
tainly so mingled in the transaction that much
allowance is to, be made for personal bias and
passion ;) and as to the refusal of the tickets, it
appears this arose from an irregularity in not fill-
ing up the blank with the name of the applicant
witness. This is a subject of all others to be
treated with forbearance—yet is it canvassed by
but too many of the Daily Papers iu an inflam-
matory and disingenuous tone.

[MORNING POST;] • .
We congratulate Mr. Waithman on' the versa-
tility of his powers. Certain indications, too
characteristic to deceive, have satisfied-.us that in
addition to the heavy'responsibility which rests
upon him in his thrOes=fOld capacity of Alderman,
Sheriff, and Attorney-general for the mob, he has
lately 'undertaken the Herculean task of Assistant
Editor to a Journal recently converted from
Whiggism to Radicalism. It is one of the dis-.
advantages attending superior talent, that it-
can never disguise itself so effectually as . not
to be recognised. '-lience it is that the po-.
litical incubrations- 'of this modern Proteus
at once reveal their author. They display
all that amiability of "teinper; all thatelegance
of language and chastened fire of imagination,
which lender hiss-speeches so delightful to the
ear, 'and so gratifying to the heart. There is be-
sides an identity.of reasoning between them which
is quite convincing; and we cannot help thinking
that we still hear hiuLspeak, 'when we read such
conclusive arguments in the Chronicle as the fol-
lowing:—" Does* 'Mr; • Waithman perform this

was a better .ticititiliri; Inquisitor than thet

it into consideration whether " performs it

mind Sand on every tongue, that he has no
legal right to perform "any sttch duty_ at all,
whether ill or well, at a Coroner's Inquest, being
the Officer, through whose instrumentality the
Jury °Uhl be called; if the -result of the in-
quest should be to send any individual to take
his trial for any alleged offence. He must know,
or if he does not, he must learn, that a Jury so
assembled, might be objected to in a body, on
no other ground than that .Of his previous in-
terference in the matters of the case. If he is
wise, therefore, and really desirous of promoting
the ends of justice, let him abstain from a line
of conduct calculated "to interrupt its course.
.Let him no longer derange the regular proceed-
ings of a solemn Inquest, or rather of au Inquest
which ought to be solemn ; and if his time should
hang heavy on his hands, let him by all means
pursue his new avocation of writing articles for
newspapers.—lt will amuse him, and the public too.
