rHE QUEEN.

etiswtft LiTrza.

4 Mr Lotlit-4 have been hestedred by her Majesty's com-
mands to acknowledge the rendpe erns Lordship's letter of
yesterday. and to state that her Majesty cannot for a =theist
misunderstand its real purport
" The Queen perceives that the king's Ministers have re-
solved to prevent Parliament from assembling for the dispatch
of business at the time to which both Houses had adjourned.
The justice and wisdom of the Legislature Would at that period,
beyond all doubt, have filtrated her to the full enjoyment of
those rights whith the Constitution has vested in the Queen
Consort. The Ministers plainly chew that such is their belief,
and they are determined, fur some purposes of their OWn, to
delay the redress to which she is entitled:
" In a measure thus alike contemptuous towards Parliament
and the Nation, the Queen perceives still deeper design. It is
impossible to doubt that the authors of the late Bill have formed
the project of trying, in some other shape, their baffled scheme of
degrading her Majesty, and ruining the best interests of the
august family to which she belongs. Defeated in their first at-
tempt—disgraced in the eyes of the Peeple—consigned to the
contempt of all Europe deserted by the most rational and re-
spected of their own adherents—they meditate a new attack on
the honour of the Queen. Their speculations must be founded
on the hope that the public sentiment, so loudly and universally
expressed, Will at length be wearied and exhausted, and that the
Queen herself will no longer have patience to resist such cruel
and endless persecutions.

" But her Majesty owes It to the British Nation to dedlare,
that she has the firmest reliance upon their support as long as
she is the Victim of oppression; and to herself she deems it due
to add, that no harassing treatment on the part of the King's
Ministers will ever shake the duty she owes to this generous
people. She has also the strongest conviction that the King's
highest interests are at the present moment as much betrayed as
those of the State. by the evU counsellors who are now once
more plotting her destruction.

" To the offer of money with which Lord Livetpool has
thought proper to accompany his notice of the intended Proro-
gation of Parliament, her Majesty has no answer to give but a
direct refusal. Nearly ten months have elapsed since his late
Majesty's death, and no Parliamentary provision has been yet
proposed for her.
As long as the Bill was pending, the Queen saw the pro-
priety of accepting the advances made for her accommodation ;
but she will not accept as a favour from the Ministers what a
due regard for the honour of the Crown would induce Parlia-
ment to grant as a right ; and she is still more averse to impose
upon the People the unnecessary burden of finding a Palace for
her, when the national munilicenCe has already provided royal
residences for all the Princesses who fill her exalted station.

" The Queen expressly commands me to add, that her Majesty,
as well as the King and the Country, have reason deeply to re-
gret, that the persons who have involved all those parties in
their present unhappy difficulties, should still have influence to
prevent that adjustment of differences, which the Queen regards
as essential to their common interests. Her Majesty has never
entertained a doubt that the King, if left to the guidance of his
own sound--
judgment and honourable feelings, would at once
listen to the Queen's claims upon his justice, and to the united
prayers of his loyal People.
" I have the honour to be, my Lord, your Lordship's obedient
and bumble servant, " R. KEPPEL CRAVEN.
Brandenburgh House, Nov. 18, 1820."

The LORD MAYOR, with several Aldermen, and
other Members of the Corporation, had an interview
with the Home Secretary on Saturday, on the subject
of the QuEEN's visit to St. Paul's, on Wednesday next. I
The Minister insists that the gates shall be thrown
open, and the people admitted indiscriminately into
the church-yard, which the LORD MAYOR is anxious
to prevent, on account of the responsibility he has
incurred, and the additional difficulty that may thence
arise of preserving order among the spectators, and
of preventing any injury to the Cathedral itself.
Her MAJESTY and suite, attended by the LORD
Mayoe, Sheriffs, &c. will arrive at the Cathedral pre-
cisely at eleven o'clock, and will enter at the great West
door, where they will be met by the Clergy and other
Members of the Church, who will attend them to the
Choir. Her MAJESTY will take her seat on the De-
cani side upon the Throne, appropriated to the use of
the Royal Family, exactly opposite the LORD MAYOR.
The choirs and lower stalls (the seats of the Clergy
and Choristers excepted) will be set apart for her
MAJESTY'S suite, the Corporation of the City of
London, &c. The upper rows of closets, right and
left, will contain the LADY MAYORESS and other dis-
tinguished females. The lower closets, together with
all the galleries, are for the use of casual visitors.—
There will, therefore, be no difficulty in procuring
seats upon *application to the Vergers. Proper pre-
cautions have been taken on the exterior to prevent
any inconvenience arising from the pressure of the
crowd, and the necessary internal preparations com-
menced this day, under the superintendence of Mr.
Lock, Carpenter to the Cathedral, and Mr. LINGA RD,
Deputy Clerk of the Works.
There are to be strong barriers in the front of the
West entrance the whole extent of the steps, leaving
only an entrance capable of admitting three persons
a-breast. Upwards of 200 extra constables have
been sworn in this morning at the Mansion-House,
and .500 are ordered to be sworn in to-morrow, in
aid of the regular Police.
Sir ROBERT WILSON has been waited upon by a
Deputation from the Committee for arranging the
cavalcade to escort her MAJESTY to St. Paul's, and
has consented to take the command, and will join
the Procession at Hyde Park•corner, at half-past nine
o'clock. It is suggested that a person should be
chosen in each Parish to register the names of those
who intend joining the cavalcade from his Parish,
and to send the list to Freemasons' Tavern, as each
person must have a number to know his situation in
the Procession.
Dr. HUGHES has written to Mr. KEPPIIL CRAVER
to inform him, that it is the orders of the Dean of
St. Paul's, not to allow any Sermon to be preached
on the day her MAJESTY goes to that Church.
The Rev. Mt. Bine!t will be the reading Mini-ter.
The following Notice has been issued by Mr. 'Wo-
rst. CRAVEN, dated Brandenburgh House, Nov. 27s
" The Inhabitants of the Wards within the City, and the
Parishes round London, hiving manifested an anxious desire to
present their Addresses of Congratulation to her Masits-re in
large bodies, instead of by small Deputations, her MAMTV,
desirous of gratifying their wishes, and disregarding all personal
fatigue, will receive their Addresses in any way most convenient
to them. In order to facilitate any arrangement for receiving
such numerous bodies, as the days are now so short, her Ma-
mirk will not receive so many Addresses In one day. Her
Maaisvr will receive Addresses on Monday next, and on every
succeeding Monday till tertbe*poties."
