THE QUEEN.

No former day, since her hlarzsre's return to England, has
been more strongly marked by a manifestation* of popular feel.
iug in her behalf, than yesterday was, except, perhaps, the day
of her arrival.
It had.been announced for some days, that it was the day ap-
pointed for the presentation of an Address from " the Lighter-
men and Watermen of the River Thames;" and the circum-

stance seemed to create an extraordinary interest. .
In town; an the streets leading to either of the bridges, were
thronged with men, women, and children, pressing forward to
obtain some erion from which they might get a glimpse of the
expected aquatic procession • and before ten o'clock in the
morning, every bridge, from London to Battersea, was crowded
to excess. The quays, wharfs, and indeed all the open spaces
on either bank of the river, were literally covered with people;
and the road to Brandeuburgh House by land., presented, for
hours, one unbroken stream of pedestrians, and vehicles of
every kind, all making' the best of their way to the scene of
attraction.
The boats, barges, &c. composing the Lightermen and Water-
men's procession, mustered on the river between Southwark
and Blackfriars bridges; and between nine and ten o'clock,
mazy hundreds had assembled. The deputation from the
parish of St. Saviour's, Southwark, joined the procession at the
same place in two large steam yachts; and at a few minutes
after ten, the whole set forward up the-river, amidst the shouts
of the assembled spectators, and the firing of guns. As it pro-
ceeded it received a conticual accession of number's, so that by
the time it passed Area:lull-badge, the river, to a great extent,
warcumpletely covered with it.
At half-past eleven o'clock the procession approached
Biandeuburgh House, and the spectacle, as seen from the
lawn was very beautiful. rt seemed to come on in one com-
plete body, decorated with hundreds of gayly-coloured stream-
cea. Bads, and ensigns, and covering the entire surface of the
water to the distance of nearly half a mile ; whilst beyond this
as far as the eye could reach, the face of the river was thickly
studded with pleasure boats, filled with well-dressed company ;
and almost every boat bearing either a white tag or the national
one. As they approached the shore the bands of music in elle
different barges struck pp " Hearts of Oak," and other popular
airs; and the Committee landed under a salute from a number
of guts stationed on either shore.
We have already stated that an immense number of people
had been voiding down through Hammersmith; and the crowd
thus raserubled wore kept tolerably quiet, on the landward side
of the mansions till the guns and shouts announcing the arrival
of the aquatic procession were beard from the river. It was
then found irepos.ible to restrain them any longer ; they pressed
forward upon the garden entrance, the door, door frame, police
officers, royal servants and all, gave way before them, and. the.
living torrent nehed in. covering the whole face of lle lawn
almost in a moment- Every wall, fence, out-house, tree, and
even bush, capable of beating the weight of a human being,
was instantly and (oily occupied; the roof, windows, viraudas,
&c. of the theatre were also as instantly filled ; and conse-
quently, the Addressers bad the greatest difficulty in landing;
and though, at length, this was in a great measure effected; yet
they coukt out preserve their identity, but were under the ne-
cessity of mixing themselves up with the crowd without order
or distinction.
Align souse time, however, the Committee were able to make
their way through the almost impenetrable crowd, and entered
the DM-MY area in arm, to the number of about fifty persons,
preceded by two watermsn in scarlet, bearing the royal stand-
ard, and .the anion jack, :tud a full band of music, playing
" Hai? ! Star 1 Brunswick:* Two other watermen, in starlet,
with ensign.% closed the procession ; and in this order they took
up thelr station irmutsliateiy under the windows of the princi-
pal drawing-room.
in a few moments the windows were thrown open, and her
IbLerserr, .surrounded by a number of Gentlemen, among
whom we observed Alderman Woos', Lady A. HAMILTON, Mr.
C 11:16117, M. T. Lieutenants llowaam and Furs, appeared at
the mare one, and bowed courteously to the people, who saluted
her with the BMX hearty cheering we ever remember to have
beard. The scene at this moment was peculiarly novel and in-
teresting; the whole space, not only the lawn, but the surface
of the en,: aho, presenting one solid mass of human beings
simultaneausly shouting and waving their hats, all decorated
whit the white cockade, amidst the waving of innumerable
Sags, and the continued discharge of guns.
Ike AU/Ewe now withdrew into the room, and the Con.;
mittee were ushered into her presence. When they were' all
arranged, her• Ilstaanrri attended only by Mr. Alderman Woos, I
again advanced to the wit Mow, placing hetself so as to be seen
by almost the whole multitude, on that side of the mansion at
Last. Tat Chairman of the Committee then advanced, and
read the Address,
_which having done, Mr. Alderman Woos
read hat 51..urary's Answer, fruat the balcony, amidst reiterated
Shoats of applause; and then the Committee, advancing one by
one, as her Idaassiv stood on the balcony loaking into the
room. had the honour of kissing her hand. Another general
in.ehlrge of the pattereroes, and three times three cheers, con-
chided this ceremony, and the Addressers began slowly to retire
to thole boats; the Committee, with their band and ensigns,
mooching off the terrace to the tune of Ithle Britannia.
La the meantime the Deputation front St. Saviour's, Soinh-
watt, had made their way up from their steam-yachts by a cir-
cuitous route through the shrubberies. They were headed by
a person Waring an enormous white streamer inscribed " Ads',
dress of St. Sairiour's Southwark ;" and as the-others marched
off they presented themselves on the terrace • but they were,
soon a; a way could be made for them through the crowd, eon.
