"Cie Litany was read as amended on the accession
is present Majesty, no notice being taken of her'
!‘:l:esty's name. In the General Thanksgiving, the
entheticai clause which it is customary tor the
Clef gyman to read at the :-equest of any
it.•ividnal who desires to offer up a particular thanks-
g: ving, was also omitted on this occasion. A dead
was used on their part to accommodate all
tv;.o were pi esent. At first, only the families of the
nbers of the Courts of Aldermen and Common
with a few select friends, were admitted,
ani were disposed in the most convenient seats not
ppropl iated fur the reception of those Members of
''ailiament, City Officers, Magistrates, Ste. in at-
.:lance on her Majesty. Ity half-past eleven o'clock
Choir contained a great number of beautiful
dressed in a manner as tasteful and elegant
as coasistent with a prudent regard for their
1:11 at the iire-ent season of the year. Among
At were Mrs. Alderman Wood and her two daugh-
;: occupying a seat nearly opposite to that set
la far her Majesty. Tke Bishop's throne and the
•r•ft. ,rat were not occupied at all, berth these Re-
Dig:.itaries Lavin:;: written to the Lord Mayor,
them fro:n being used ! The seat ap.
.a.,;-riale.t to her i'vlijesty's use on this occasion was
le one unfornile occupied by Members of the Royal
and called the Bishop's seat: it. is situated
the middle of the Choir, on the south side. Ths

from an early hour one of the right side seats,
the door and her Majesty's seat. The only

preparations made on this occasion were the.
:colon of a few seats in the space between the
:ire% of the Choir and the nave, and the placing of
oral firms along the ai,le of the Choir, between
pulpit and the railing in front of the Altar. The
DT-mince had expressed a wish to lay down a co-
a-u-7 of carpeting from the outer gate of the Ca-
•edral, through the nave and Choir, to the seat set
art for her Majesty; but Dr. Hughes's instructions
'! not permit him to sanction the proposal.
: a qua] ter before twelve o'clock, the Committee
s.x.,y Ladies, who were in attendance to receive
:tlaiesty, entered the Choir, and took their seats
the lOrms placed in front of the Communion-table.

together, was peculiarly striking and pleasing.!
.Itt:t as these Ladies had taken their seats behind
••• pipit, we observed with regret the only act of
~:tc,.atim that was committed during the whole
ay—the only exhibition that was inconsistent with
a: solemnity of the occasion. While every other

apparently much irritated, and striking his trencher-
cap with violence en die front of the desk, reiterated
his complaint that the agreement was violated.
The condnet of the zealous Canon drew from the
persons assembled in the Choir very unequivocal
symptoms of disapprobation ; but the good sense of
the congregation soon restored to this solemnity the
devout attention which is always so becoming in the
House of Pi.ayer. •
At thirty minutes past twelve, her Majesty ap-
proached St. Paul's, and the west centre doors, front-
ing Ludgate-hill, were thrown open. The vast pile
resounded with murmurs of gratulation ; and the
distant shouts of the multitude without continued to
increase in loudness as her Majesty drew nearer to!
the majestic temple.

Notice of the Queen's approach having been given
to Dr. Hughes, he proceeded with the Choir to the
west doer to receive her Majesty. The Committee
advanced and joined the Choir, and in a few seconds
her Majesty entered the Cathedral amidst loud shouts.
The west door was then closed, and her Majesty ad-
vancad thus attended :

Two Marsha!men.
Members of the Committee, two and two.
The Officers of the Corporation.
Mr. Sheriff Waithman and Mr. Sheriff Williams.
her Majesty, resting on the arm of the Lord Mayor.

Alierman Wood, and the Members of her Majesty's suite.

Lady Hamilton, resting on the arm of Mr. FavelL
Members of the Committee.

Her Majesty was also attended by the Hon. Keppel Craven,
Sir Robert Wilson, Mr. Hume, M.P. Mr. Hobhouse, M.P.
and several other persons of distinction.

As litr Majesty approached, Mr. Attwoncl, the
organist, performed a voluntary, and one of Mozart's
fugues.

Her Majesty walked slowly and solemnly tkp to'
the nave and choir to the seat appointed for her,
headed. by the Lord Mayor, and followed by the
Gentlemen already mentioned. Lady Anne Hamilton
was on the Queen's right, and Sir Robert Wilson
and Mr. Hobhouse on the left. On Lady Anne Ha,
miltun's right was Mr. Hume, and Mr. B. Beaumont.
The lion. keppel Craven stood below, in front of
her Majesty.
Having left the Queen seated, the Lord Mayor,
followed by the Aldermen and City officers, pro-
cteded to the opposite side of the choir, and took his
seat, Mr. Alderman Wood being on his left, and
Sheriffs \Vaithman and Williams, and their Under-
Sheriffs, on the left of Alderman Wood. The Mem-
bers of the earporation who were present then ar-
ranged thentselves in their respective places. The
Deputation of Ladies, who preciously sat on the
forms in front of the communion-table, now removed
to the side-seats on each side of the pulpit. Dr.
Hughes took his private seat at the end of the choir.

Her Majesty wore a white silk pelf se, with deep
trimmings of white fur, and a close turban head-
dress, covered with a white veil. As soon as she
was placed in her scat, she turned round, and kneel-
ing slowly down, offered up, in silence, her prayers
and praises to the DIVINITY.

The usual Morning Service wat then read—the
Prayers by the Rev. Mr. Hayes, and the Litany by
the Rev. Mr. Pridden and the Rev. M. Pack.
—Solemn silence pervaded the Choir during the
time of service ; and owing to the excellent. arrange-
ments previously made, and already described, it was
not uncomfortably crowded. The unaffected solem-
nity of her Majesty's deportment, during the per-
formance of the Service, was emkently characteristic
of the devout aitd humble Christian.

Public Worship was concluded at a quarter before
two o'clock, and' the Deputation of Ladies then moved
towards the door of the Choir, and arranged them-
selves on each side of the pa -sage through which her
Majesty was to walk on proceeding to her carriage.
