THE QUEEN.

It was intimated at ten o'clock yesterday, that
her MAJESTY was too unwell to take her usual
excursion from Brandenburgh House to St.
James's-square, and accordingly the crowd, which
had began to congregate so early as nine,' was
much diminished by twelve. However, by two
o'clock, her Majesty reached the House of Lords
unexpectedly, and 'was cheered by the populace.
Her state landau was closed up, and she looked
extremely pale. •

Precisely at twenty-five minutes past three
her Majesty left the House of Lords, whence
she reached St. James's-square at four, where
she showed herself as customary at the window.
The multitude, of course, cheered her. After
this, the Queen retired to partake of some re-
freshment.

At five o'clock the Deputation from the Ward
of Cripplegate, in 28 open carriages, with four
horses each, brought up the Address voted at a
vestry meeting last week—they were most gra-
ciously received.
About this time the western end of the square
was crowded to excess, owing to the numbers who
had accompanied the Deputation from the City.
Cries of" The Queen, the Queen !" induced her
Majesty again to appear at the window, whence
she made her obeisance to the mob. Between
six and seven o'clock her Majesty left St. James's-
square in her travelling chariot, for Brandenburgh
House, at Hammersmith. She was dressed in
black, and wore a white hat, which was orna-
mented with white plumes.
It was observed, with regret, that the Duke of
Wellington was insulted most grossly in pass-
ing from Parliament-street towards the Horse
Guards, and found it necessary at last to retrace
his course, and to go through Story's-gate. It is
feared that several persons were severely hurt in
consequence of the violence of the mob.

Her Majesty, it is said, gave orders yesterday
for a letter to be sent to Colonel Stevenson, re-
questing a peremptory answer relative to the
Duke of Cambridge's house, and stating her
anxiety to get possession of it. The price fixed
by the Duke of Cambridge before he left Eng-
land is many thousands less than the house of
Lord Caruarvon, in Grosvenor-square, which was
the other in contemplation.

Three boxing matches took place yesterday on
Wimbledo❑ Common ; the principal one between
Little Curtis (brother of the man killed in a
battle with Turner,) and Ned Brawn, for 9.5
guineas aside, was won by the former in 55 mi-
nutes; the second, between William Abbot and
a coachman, for a purse, lasted 35 minutes, and
Was won by Abbot; the third, between Hawkins
and Randall's Irish boy, was won by the latter
in 38 minutes.

ARCTIC EXPEDITION.—Accounts have been
received in Edinburgh from a Gentleman attach-
ed to the Arctic Land Expedition, dated in Ja-
'wary last, at which period t:•e prrty were in
comfortable winter quarters at Cumberland-house.

The cold was very severe,.the thermometer stand-
ing at 20 dcg. below Zero, hitt owing to the dry-
ness of the atmosphere it was not so unpleasant
f 4 the cold wet weather in England. The rivers
and lakes abownded with fish of various kinds,
particularly trout of a very large' size, and the
hunter brought moose deer and buffaloe from the
woods, so that there was no scarcity of provisions
at the station they occupied. ft was intended
to proceed to the northward as soon as the season
would permit, and having the whole summer be-
fore them, they expected to make great progress
ill their journey, but owing to the great distance
to the supposed northern shores, it is probable
that it would take them the greatest part of next
summer to make any very extensive survey of
the coast: anti that they would have to retire to

the southward during the ensuing winter, hut it
was Uncertain where they would take up their
quarters, as they could gain no intelligence of the
country b
I. e'vond the limits of the fur traders. The
otlie
the Iludson's Bay and North-WeA
cr
Company had paid every attention to the party.

In the course of yesterday morning sOme of the
silver plate was discovered by firemen em•
ployed in digging up the ruins of the house of
Doctor Wakely, and an opinion seems from this
circumstance to be strongly' entertained, that
the, atrocious deed was the result of malice,
and not committed with a view to robbery. Dr.

MR. EDITOR—I trust tWt" you will favour a
Constant Reader of your much esteemed Paper,
by the insertion of the following queries, ad-
dressed to all impartial, moral, and religious
people :

. First7—What would you think of a Lady in private
,separated from her husband, and, consequently, expected to
be very cireat,spect in her conduct, it she made her. Foo-
tman put off his livery and dress himself elegantly like a. moors
of rank, and then permit him to' -dine alone her instead
of waiting as he used to do behind the chairs of her com-
