times; first upon the uppermost step of the elevated
platform; next in the middle of the Hall ; and lastly
at the bottom of the Hall—the Officers of Arms be-

kerchiefs and fans.
Dinner being concluded, the Lord Mayor and '
twelve principal citizens of London, as assistants to
the Chief Butler of England, accompanied by the
Cup.bearer and assistant, presented to his
Majesty wine in a gold cup; and the King having

whole comp Any.
The Lord Chancellor, who sat at the corner of one
of the tables,. took occasion to observe that the toast.

sine times nine. This remark did not produce any

renewal of the acclamations.
• " Gob save ihe King" followed, sung in good style,
by the whole choir, the chorus being swelled by the
company, all standing.
The Duke of Norfolk then said, " The King thanks
his Peers for drinking his health : he does them the
honour to drink their health and that of his good
People." His Majesty rose, and bowing three times
to the various parts of the immense concourse,
The abstract of his kiaodo►n,
" In all the beauty, Atate, and v, ortit it holds,"
he drank the health all present. It was succeeded
by long continued shouts from all sides, during which
the King resumed his seat on his throne.

♦arious Peers paid their homage and respects to his
Majesty; after which, the King received from the
Dukes of Devonshire and Beaufort his Orb and

His Majesty then shook hands with the Lord
Chancellor, and afterwards conf:•rred the honour of
Knighthood on two Officers of the Band of Gentle-
men Pensioners. At a quarter before eight he bowed
to the Hall, and retired, followed by the Loyal Dukes
and Great Officers of State.

THE QUEEX.

We have collected from our own observation, and
sources which are quoted below, some additional par-
ticulars of her Majesty's attempt to obtain admission
to the ceremony of the Coronation :
The first object that particularly attracted atten-
tion in the quarter of Palace-yard, as well as in others
mentioned in our Paper of yesterday, was the arrival
and treatment of the Queen. About half-past six
o'clock, her approach was announced by loud accla-
mations without the barrier, and a kind of confused
and anxious agitatiorewithin. The burst of applause
when her carriage appeared, overpowered the
eccted and irresolute efforts of a portion of the spec-
tators, who-e interests or connections prejudiced them
against her person. Her carriage, drawn by six horses,
passed the barrier without interruption, and proceeded
by the King's Arms Tavern to nearly opposite the
door of Westminster Hall. Her Majesty there stop-
ped for a few moments, apparently uncertain what
course to take, as she had hitherto met with no ob-
struction, and yet had received nothing like an invita-
tion to approach. At this moment the feelings of the
spectators were wound up to a pitch of the most in-
tense curiosity and most painful anxiety. The persons
who immediately surro..:lded her carriage knew no
bounds in expressing :Seir enthusiastic attachment,
while many of those in the galleries, apprehensive of
the consequences of the experiment which she was
making, could not restrain their fears and alarms.—
In the meantime great confusion seemed to prevail'
among .the Office,rs and soldiers on and near the
platform.; the former giving orders and retracting
them, and the latter running to their arms, uncertain
whether they should salute her by presenting them
or not. Astonishment, hurry, and doubt seemed to
agitate the whole multitude assembled either to wit-
ness or compose the ensuing pageant. We never re-
member to have observed more unequivocal symp-
toms of pain or honor than were manifested by peo-
ple of the most opposite sentiments, when they saw
their Queen treated like an alien or outcast, by the
servants, and at die festive Hall, of her husband.—
Every heart thrilled with pity or indignation. These
feelings were increased as she alighted from her car-
riage and proceeded on foot, leaning on the arm of
Lord Hood, and accompanied by the faithful com-
panions of afffiction Lady Hood and Lady Anne
Hamilton, to demand admission. The approach of
the Queen towards the Hail door produced a consi-
derable sensation within: there was an immediate
'rush to the door, which was closed amidst much con-
fusion. The Officer on guard was immediately sum-
moned to the spot, and asked her Majesty for her
ticket ? She replied that she had none, and, as Queen
of England, needed none: he professed his sorrow,
but said he must obey orders, and that his orders
were to see that no person whatever should be ad-
mitted without a ticket. Her Majesty then retired.
They went to the door of the Duchy of Lancaster,
behind the Champion's stable, and had the door shut
in their faces. They then turued round, and, leaving
the royal carriage behind, proceeded to demand ad-
mission at another entrance. The same intense sen-
sation of interest, and the same applause, mixed with
partial disapprobation continued to follow her.
When she arrived nearly at the other extremity of
the Platform—that which was opposite to the Cen-
tral Pavilion—her further progress was arrested by a
file of about a dozen soldiers, who were suddenly
ordered to form across the Platform. Her Majesty
then quitted it, and went straight on to the House
of Lords on foot, there to repeat the same request,
and with the same success. •
In about twenty minutes she returned, and having
ordered the top of her carriage to be taken down,

rode off, amid the astonishment and acclamations ofl
the people. .1
We subjoin the following account, which appeared
in the latter part of our impression yesterday:
On Lord ikon's demanding admission for her
MAJESTY, at Poets' Corner, the Door-keepers drew
across the entrance, and requested to see the tickets.
Lord HOOD—" I present to.you your Queen, surely
it is not necessary for her to have a ticket ?"
Door-keeper—" Our orders are to admit no per-
son without a Peers' ticket.'

Lord Hoop—" This is your Queen : she is entitled
to admission without such a form."

The Queen, smiling, but still in some agitation—
" Yes, I am your Queen, will you admit me ?"
Door-keeper.—" My orders are specific, and I feel
myself bound to obey them."
The Queen laughed.
Lord Moon.—" I have a ticket."
Door-keeper.—" Then, my Lord, we will let you
pass upon producing it." •
Lord HOOD now drew from his pocket a Peer s
ticket for one person, the original name in whose fa-
vour it was drawn was erased, and the name of
4 Wellington' substituted.
Door-keeper.—" This will let one person pass, but
no more."
Lord HOOD.—" Will your Majesty go in alone?"
HerIIAJESTY at first assented, but did not persevere.
Lord HooD.—" Am I to understand that you re-
fuse her Majesty admission ?"
Door-keeper.—" We only act in conformity with
our orders.

Her MAsesry again laughed.
Lord Hoon.—,, Then you refuse the Queen ad-
mission?" _

.....
A Door keeper of a superior order then came for-
ward, and Was asked by Lord HOOD whether any
preparations had been made for her MAJESTY ? He
answered respectfully in the negative.
• Lord HOOD-.-" Will your Majesty enter the Abbey
without your Ladies ?"
Her MAJESTY declined.
Lord Hoop then said, that her MAJESTY had bet-
ter retire to her carriage. It was clear no provision
had been made for her accommodation.
Her MAJESTY assented.
Some persons within the porch of the Abbey
laughed, and uttered some expressions of disrespect.
Lord Hoop.—" We expected to have met at least
with the conduct of Gentlemen. Such conduct is
neither manly nor mannerly."
Her NIAJESTY• then retired, leaning on Lord HOOD'S
arm, and followed by Lady Hoop and Lady ANNE
HAMILTON.

She was preceded by constables back to the Plat.
form, over which she returned, entered her carriage,
and was driven off amidst reiterated shouts of ap-
plause and disapprobation.
Another account, said to be from authority, says :
" Her Majesty set out from her house in South Audley-
street, and proceeding through the Parks to West-
minster Abbey, went to Dean s-yard, where her Ma-
jesty got out of her carriage, in expectation of being
allowed to enter, but was refused at two doors of en-
trance ; and her carriage having drawn off, her Ma-
jesty was obliged to wait in the passage till it was
called back, when her Majesty proceeded toward.
Poet's Corner, and again got out of her carriage in
Old Palace.yard, and sought admittance by two tem-
porary doors, which, upon her Majesty's approach,
were shut in her face ; after which, some of the people
pointed out the opening to the platform. Upon
ascending this, her Majesty was again obstructed by
the Police officers, till an Officer, it is believed of tl
Guards, politely allowed her Majesty to cross tl.e
platform; and her Majesty walked from thence to Old
Palace-yard, and entered first the passage to Cotton-
garden ; after which her Majesty proceeded along
the covered way to Poet's-corner, and when arrived at
the door was refused admittance without tickets, upon
which Lord Hood produced one, and was informed it °
I would only admit one person; upon which Lord Hood
observed, he did not suppose the Queen required a
i ticket of admission ; to which one of the persons ap-
pointed for the admission of the company observed,
he did not know the Queen, and positively forbade
her Majesty from entering; and one of the Poor
Knights of Windsor came up, and said there was no
place for her Majesty. Finding every effort to gain
admittance ineffectual, her Majesty returned to her
carriage, and proceeded th:ough Whitehall, Pall-
mall, St. James s-street, and Piccadilly, to her house,
attended by an immense concourse of people, mani-
festing their respect to their Queen, and expressing
their indignation at the unexampled treatment expe-
rienced by her Majesty. Although the different per-
sons at the door of the Abbey were all under orders
to say they did not know her Majesty, it is to be ob-
, served that her Majesty came in the Royal State
carriage, and that the Guards, wherever she passed,
presented arms."
The Queen, after her return yesterday to Cam-
bridge House, was visited by many friends. Her
Majesty never displayed more equanimity, and did
not appear to have suffered from the bustle and fa-
tigue of the morning.
IIYDE PARK.
The preparations made in Hyde Park, for cele-
brating the Coronation, were framed on the most
extensive scale.
About two o'clock the boat race commenced, on
the Serpentine river. There were about one hundred
wherries with awnings of white linen, filled with well-
dressed females, as spectators of a well contested
match between six boats rowed by gay young wa-
termen. Among the novelties was a splendid barge,
apparently drawn by elephants—for the rowers were
concealed under the prows of the vessel. At the
conclusion of the regatta, a band of music struck
up, at the angles of the river; and a few Welsh
lasses tripped it on the light fantastic toe. Erratic
minstrels, with their mouth organs, and other in-
struments, perambulated the high grounds, amid
booths of every description. But what struck the
eye most, were the extensive preparations for fire-
works; they occupied a semi-circle of one hundred,
yards at least.
Nine o'clock in the evening presented a scene of
brilliancy unexampled ! Every tree, in every shrub.
bery, from one end of the Park to the other, was
wreathed by globular lamps ; but when com'pared
with the temples, triumphal arches, columns, &c.
they looked like glow-worms among the undei wood.
The principal object of attraction sva at the head

of the Serpentine River: it represented a magnifi-
cent temple, with the British Imperial Crown, sur-
mounting the Star of Brunswick : the pilasters, py-
ramids, and the globes (the latter representing-the
two hemispheres), attracted every eye. On the
banks of the river were several brick buildings ;
they were converted into fairy palaces, being entirely
covered with architectural ornaments.
Medallions were hung among the trees, with
1, G. R. IV." and other devices, surrounded by ap-
propriate emblems, and branches of laurel in lamps.
One whole vista was closed by a pyiamid of fire.
The walks themselves were also lighted up by fes-
toons of lamps, hung among the trees, and candela-
bras, in Chinese fashion, at various distances, hang-
ing from the crown of each arch formed by smaller
lights. These ornaments produced an effect entirely
new and very beautiful, since the light they shed was
of a quiet, placid kind, forming a grateful contrast to
the overbearing splendour of the rest of the spectacle.

The fire-works were of the most magnificent de-
scription, consisting of rockets, catherine wheels, tur-
billons, parachute rockets, and every other ingenious
device that distinguishes the Pyrotechnic art. The
display of these did not commence until half-past
nine o'clock, when Hyde Park was crowded in every
part. There must have been more than half a mil-
' lion of persons present. The fire-works commenced
with a discharge similar to small arms of infantry
firing a salute. It was answered by a discharge of
the same nature from Kensington-gardens ; this was
followed by a profusion of stars, catherine wheels,
Ste. and concluded by a discharge of rockets the
most brilliant that. could be formed. On the western
extremity of the river a fire-work was exhibited,
which, from its magnitude. and the multitude of
sparks that it emitted gave the spectator no bad idea
of a volcano. The dai k gloom of the trees of Ken-
sington-gardens behind, added greatly to the beauty
of the effect. From the Park could he seen the fre-
quent discharge of rockets from Primrose-hill. The
occasional brilliancy of the fire-balloons drew forth
the admiration of the multitude.

The Serpentine River was traversed in every direc-
tion by a multitude of boats, but it was principally
distinguished by the brilliant representation of a tri-
umphal car, adorned with flags, and drawn by two
elephants, the whole being formed by variegated
lamps. The barge upon which this representation
was exhibited was most splendidly illuminated. On
board of it was a band of music, which continually
played some lively and popular airs; and contributed
very much to the pleasing effect of the scene. The
barge was towed by four boats, which were also
handsomely illuminated by variegated lamps, and
was attended by ten others similarly ornamented ;
the whole presenting an appearance equally novel
and brilliant, and appeared to afford considerable
gratification to all who were assembled to witness it.
—ln the neighbourhood of the place appointed for
the display of fire-works, were several swings and
show-booths; such as are to be seen at the various
fairs in and near the metropolis.
