PROVINCIAL JOURNALS.

The opinions of tile Provincial- Editors, as we
have had many occasions of ol3serving,being formed
more on leisure and reflection than the currente ca-
lame effusions of the London Journals, are-pecu-
liarly entitled to attention. The Paper'whence we
take the subjoined articles has always been mark-
ed by- candour; good sense, and loyalty. We
have particularly distinguished the last paragraph,
because, if well founded, it cantains an extraor-
dinary and striking fact which cannot but make
a forcible impression on the people at large. We
hope, however, that the loyal and liberal-minded
Editor has received false information,, and we
cannot doubt but that some of her Majesty's advi-
sers will deem it necessary to come forward with
a formal and satisfactory denial of so injurious
an impeachment of her good sense and discre-

ion :

[From THE BIRMINGHAM COMMtnc:AL Mert.ALp of
July 14.1
" The Privy Council have decided against the Queen's claim
to participate in the ensuing Coronation; and we understand
that the decision was unaniinons. Thus defeated before the
Council, her Majesty applied through Mr. Hume to the:House
of Commons. On Tuesday night the Hon. Gentleman made a
speech'of some length in giving notice of a motion for an. Ad-
dress to the Throne upon the subject, concluding with a pro-
mise, that whether crowned or not, the Queen would interpose
in the ceremony of the Coronation. Mr. Butterworth express-
ed a hope that, for the sake of the little credit the Queen had
left, she would abstain frOm such a Course. This called up
Mr. Alderman Wood, who vouched that the Queen's popularity
was not merely unimpaired, but greatly enhanced since • the
' month of Novetnber. Her reception at Drury-lane, on Tues-
day,
as well as at the Minor Theatres on previous evenings,'
gives no evidence of tic fact; -for we may safely assert that sel—•
Om has a Queen met with so little attention from the respecta-
ble part of the audience as she has knee she identified herself
with the leathercoek mob.
" It. is . worthy of remark, that neither Mr. Brougham nor
Mr. Denman interfered in the House of Commons._ Her Ma-
jesty's monstrous purpose was urged by Mr. Wood and Mr.
Hume alone.

• " In answer to the communication of the decision of the
Privy Council, her 'Majesty declared her resolution to attend
the Coronation. Orders have in consequence, we understand,
been given, that the utmost respect shall be shown to her per-
sonally, but no attendant whatever Will be allowed to intrude
with her. We have heard various rumours of the course
which the Queen means to adopt upon the occasion. The
most extravagant is not the most incredible, but we, must be
excused for not hinting at it.

". We are, however, by the length to which the Q has
already committed herself; relieved from the necessity of longer
withholding a fact, of which we have been for some time aware,
namely, that the sole motive of her Majesty's continuing in
this country has been this meditated stroke-at the Coronation ;
and that she has frequently declared that upon the conduct of
the people on that day will depend her future residence in Eng-
land. We may therefore safely predict that she will speedily
proceed to occupy her new mansion in the Pays de Vaud.".
