[FURTHER PARTICULARS I

The doubts of the arrival of the ga ees: in town particu-
lady prevailed in South A udley-street, fur it was observed,
that the house of Alderman Wood did not appear to have
undergone a suitable change for such an event. Even the
chairs in the principal drawing-room appeared still in their
dimity covers, and nothing in fact gate note that any prepa-
ration had been made for the reception of so distinguished a
visitor. The crowd continued every moment to increase; and
towards 5 o'clock to manifest considerable impativoce. About
this time a cry of " Hats off" was raised as every carriage or
horseman passed ; and whoever refused to obey the mandate was
instantlypelted with mud. The Earl of Clomuell was one of the
refractory. His Lordship was mounted on a spirited horse, and
the animal being startled at the shouts of the crowd, became
so restive that hiti Lordship had no opportunity of taking
off his hat if he had been inclined so to do; but never-
theless, he was saluted with a volley of mud; one large
handful of it struck him on
.the temple, and completely
closed up his right eye. Lord Barrinton, also, in his tilburv,
attempted to pass without uncovering, and be was still
more roughly handled. At length two men in a taxed cart,
wearing handkerchiefs in their hats, by way of colours, we
presume, drove up to the house at full speed, and announced
the immediate approach of the great object of interest, and
all was tolerably quiet again. Her Majesty and suite ap-
proached the Metropolis at a rapid pace, in an open landau
and two close carriages, and preceded by fifty or sixty horse-
men, shouting, "The Queen is coming ! the Queen ! the
Queen !" This announcement was answered by the
cheers of the multitude, the waving of handkerchiefs
from the windows, &c. Her Majesty rode in the first
carriage, an open latish's, with four post-horses, the
postillions wearing scarlet jackets. On the dickey was
seated a black man of small stature, wearing a tunic and
trowsers of black cloth, and 'a turban wreathed with black
and white alternately, intermixed with beads. This mats
secured considerably alarmed at the tumultuous scene around
him. On the left hand of her Majesty sat Mr. Alderman
Wood, without his hat, and on the opposite seat was Lady
• Anne'Hamilton and another Lady. Her Majesty wore a pe-
lisse of black silk with a high fashionable collar, and large
ruff of point lace, with a very handsome black silk Spanish hat
and plume of black ostrich feathers ; sire appeared in excellent
health and spirits. In the second carriage, a chaise and
four, was a man of colour, with a quantity of luggage; and
in the third, also a chaise and four, were her Majesty's
dere, Mr. W. Austin, and Mr. Wood, jun. The cavalcade
passed through the Marsh-gate, over Westminster-bridge,
along Parliament-street, Whitehall, Charing-cross, Cock-
spur-street, Pall Mall, St. James's street, Piccadilly, and
Curzon-street, May-fair, to South Audley-street. Every
where her Majesty was greeted with the most enthu-
siastic cheers from the assembled multitude; and the waving
of handkerchiefs and other demonstrations of respect from
the windows and balconies of the houses, was very general
throughout the whole line. The viranda at Brooks's, in
St. James's-street, was completely filled - with Gentlemen,
Who remained uncovered whilst her Majesty passed
through the street. Whets the cavalcade reached South
Atrdley-street, the crowd assembled there was so great, -
that it was with the utmost difficulty the carriage
could drive up to Mr. Alderman Wood's house; and when,
at last, it had reached the door, it was some seconds before
the foot-path and the steps of the house could be cleared,
so as to allow her Majesty to alight. When, at last, this
• was accomplished, a carpet was laid down across the
footway, and her Majesty alighted. She was handed
from the carriage by Mr. illderman Wood; Mr. Phillip
Wood, and several other Gentlemen, being on the steps to
receive her. Whilst this was doing the acclamations were
most astounding, and the waving of handkerchiefs, from 01
windows of all the houses in sight, incessant and universe.
Even the mansion of the Duke of Cambridge, the present
residence of the Princess Sophia, and tire house of the Misses
Fitzclarence (both nearly opposite to that of the worthy Al-
derman), made as much show of respect and attachment its
this way as any of the rest. \When her Majesty bad entered
the house, there seemed to be a general expectation that she
would show herself from the balcony, and shouts' of " The
Queen ! the Queen !" resounded on all sides. Several of her
Majesty's female attendants came out, and Mr. Alderman
Wood also presented himself, and intimated to the people
that her Majesty would gratify them by her presence. Ac-
cordingly, in about a quarter of an hour, the Queen appear-
ed upon the balcony, attended by Mr. Alderman Wood.
Shouts of " Long live the Queen !" &c. were renewed
with tenfold eagerness; and her Majesty, walking nearly
from one end of the balcony to the other, bowed re-
peatedly. She then retired amidst a peal of huzzas, min-
gled with reiterated cries of—" God save the Queen !"
" Long live the Queen !" " Queen Caroline for ever l" &e.
Shortly afterwards Mr. Denman, her Majesty's Solicitor-
General, arrived at the house, as did Mr. Hume, the Mem-
ber fur Aberdeen, Sir It. Wilson, Mr. Harmer, and several
other Gentlemen. Mr. Denman, it is said, bad an audience
of her Majesty, bat• neither he, nor any of the other Gentle-
men, remained in the house more than half-an-hour. The
crowd still continued to increase up to nine o'clock, and the
cheering was loud and almost incessant.

There was nothing like an illumination in South Audley-
street ; and all the windows of Alderman Wood's house
were darkened up. There were, however, some slight illu-
minations in several houses in Clarges-street, Albermarle-
street, Old Bond-street; and Piccadilly. Those,we understood,
took place in consequence of threats uttered by the mob. Over
the entrance of the Burlington Arcade, in Piccadiily, there
was, however, a very handsome illumination of lamps ; it con-
sisted of the letter C. R., surmounted by a Crown. All aknig
the front wall of Du; lington House there were placed seve-
ral bilge flambeaux, which had a very brilliant 'effect.

nanimity of Parliament, and demanding an Open

Trial, that ber Defence may be as universally

known as the Calumnies against Her.

LONDON JOURNALS.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAT.

[Morning Post.]

It is lamentable to find that a certain portion of
the Public Press is evidently endeavouring to ren-
der the arrival of her Majesty an occasion for
agitating the country again, after a very recent
attainment of tranquillity: the first effect of which
was witnessed at a late hoar last night, in the
disturbance of the peaceful inhabitants of all the
principal streets in the west end of the town, by
a mob, who ran about with flambeaux, violently
knocking at all private doors, and to. the great
annoyance, if not terror, of the respectable classes
of society, insisting upon lights being placed in
their windows, though many of the families had
already retired to res,. By this means a parrha
illumination was effected in many of the streets ;
but it surely behoves the Police to bare recourse
to the necessary precautions to guard against
similar annoyance for the future to the peaceable
inhabitants of the metropolis.
