At an early hour 'yesterday mottling, An irniklense
multitude filled the streets In the ♦icinity of the Foun-
tain Inn, and at ten o'clock her Majesty appeared at
the window ; she was immediately saluted by-loud

and long continued cheering. Her Majesty*spressed:
her acknowledgments, and waving her handkerchief,
silence was restored; upon which she said, II My',
good people, as you cheer me, I pray you cheer the
King also," which the people accordingly did, her'
Majesty waving her handkerchief as long as the cheers
for the King continued.

• At half-past ten the horses and carriages were
ordered. • The people, however, would not permit
the horses to be put to the carriage, but insisted on
drawing her Majesty completely through the town.

From the windows on each side of the street, flags
hearing appropriate devices were displayed, and the
'lilies were everywhere seen waving their handker-
chiefs, and joining in the general exclamations of—

4 Long live our gracious Queen r "Long live. Queen-
Caredine," &c.

The scene was extremely imposing, and her Ma,
jesty appeared to be greatly affected. She repeat
Idly put her head out of the window to those who

pressed to gain a view of her

!. She also

waved her handkerchief, and calling on the people
to respect their King, cried—" Long live King George
the Fourth !"

A great many of the young Officers of the Cavalry
regiment now stationed at Canterbury, accompanied
her Majesty on horseback from Canterbury to Sit-
tingbourne.

Through every village on the route towards Lon-
don the same enthusiasm prevailed. All business
was at an end, and every class of society seemed to
feel it a duty to pay homage to her Majesty. The
bells of the churches were set ringing, and all was
joy and exultation.

At Sittingbourne, a number of Clergymen, in their
full gowns and bands, were waiting in the road to
pay their respects to her Majesty, and approached
her for that purpose while the horses were changing.
At the bottom of Chatham-hill the whole popula-
tion of the town of Chatham and its vicinity were
collected to bid her Majesty welcome. An attempt
was made to renew the compliment of drawing her
Majesty through the town; but, as her Majesty was
anxious to get to London before the close of day, at
her request the reople desisted. She was, however,
cheered from every house as she passed, and all were
alike loud in their acclamations of applause. The
scenes described as having taken place in the other
towns were renewed until she had gone completely
through Rochester and Stroud. She was also at-
tended by a very numerous cavalcade of horsemen.
At Gravesend, in defiance of the repeated entreaties
of Alderman Wood, her Majesty was again drawn
by her subjects entirely through the town, amidst
reiterated cheers.

From Dartford, several horsemen came to meet
her illnjesty, and accompanied her carriage from
thence to London. As she advanced towards Shoot-
er's-hill, the attendant cavalcade increased in num-
bers. Hundreds of vehicles of all descriptions were
seen stationary on each side of the road, filled with
well-dressed females, who, as her Majesty passed,
joined in the universal shout, and continued to wave
their handkerchiefs. These vehicles afterwards formed
part of the procession, and continued to swell her
Majesty's train.
As her Majesty's carriage descended the hill to-
wards London, one of her horses fell, and for a time
there was considerable confusion. The animal was
however soon relieved from its dangerous situation,
and its place supplied by another. The cavalcade
then quickly advanced. It was preceded by a cloud
of horsemen, waving their hats, and repeating the
cries of " Long live Queen Caroline!"
The general expectation that hei Majesty would
enter the Capital on the evening of yesterday proved
to be well-founded. Neither the degree of uncer-
tainty which accompanied it, nor the unfavourable
state of the weather, could extinguish the ardour
which prompted hundreds to assemble at an early
hour, in order to hail and congratulate her return.—
From the moment that she decided as to the course
she would adopt, and resolved to throw herself on thy(
people of England, all her proceedings have been so
open, so divested of the mystery usually attending a
Royal journey, that few were in danger of miscalcu-
lating the different stages of her progress. Her Ma-
jesty's arrival seemed to have been greeted not as an
*unlooked-for, but as a natural and almost necessary,
event. On all those outskirts of the tows which point
or lead to the high Dover-road, at the Obelisk, in St.
George's-fields, at tbe.Elephant and Castle, the Brick-
layers Arms, the multitude began rapidly to increase
about three o'clock.
The more loyal publicans hoisted a t'oal ensign
on the staff of their sign-posts, and at Deptford the
Union Jack was suspended, in two or three places,
across the road. Symptoms of an impatient curl•
osity, mingled with those of a deep and powerful
interest, became stronger each succeeding hour...-.
The throng of spectators became more dense the
further an advance was made towards the point
of anticipated meeting ; Deptford and Greenwich
poured out in indiscriminate conccurse, all ranks
and conditions of their inhabitants ; Blackheath re-

is

She descended from her Carriage amidst the loud and
enthusiastic plaudits of the crowd:
The tide of popular feeling wts now at its heigbi.-
The wafting of handkerchiefs from ail the houses in
siglit was incessant and universal. Even the mansion
of the Duke of Cambridge, (the present resitlence• of
-the Princess Sophia), and the house of the idissets
Fitzclarence, both nearly opposite to that of Mr. Al:
derman Wood, made as much shew of itspect and
attachment in this way as any of the rest.
Her Majesty was handed from her carriage by Mn
Alderman Wood, and Mr. Phillip Wood.

T ~..y.. •.• ~-

After the Queen had at length entered the house,
there seemed no disposition in the assembled multi•
tude to disperse—horsemen and vehicles of every de:

scription maintained their position, and the crowd'
-stood compact and immoveable.
In a few Minutes Mr. Alderman Wood appeared in
the balcony of the first floor, and intimated that-her
-Majesty would in person testify the sense which she
entertained of the respectful sentiments expresied to=
wards her.

The moment the Queen appeared, she was greeted
with 14 GOD bless your MVesty!" "COD prated your
Majesti,":‘ Queen Carolate—Queen Caroline for
ever," front a thousand Infests.
The most splendid pageant, the most imposing
theatrical exhibition, never imparted a more genuine
delight than seemed to pervade all ranks Of spectators
at this moment.

Her Majesty, with a deportment perfectly graceful,
walked from one end of the balcony to the other, and
having bowed to all around, withdrew frorn.the
ardent gaze which fed upon her presence. The
crowd instantly dispersed through the various outlets
of the street, and her Majesty's train,
_consisting of
a calaJi and three post-chaises, were then allowed
to unload.

The Club-houses in Sr.* James-street were illumi-
nated, as were likewise the houses in Hill-street, Bur-
lington-house, and some others in' Piccadilly.

FORMER CHARGES AGAINST.THE QUIBII.
When the case of her Majesty fornietiy engtlitid
this public attention, she wtote a letter 'to the 'teee

King, of too remarkable a nature to hAve-escslfed
the recollection of our Readers. We extract the

following passage from it, as peculiarly applic.able,
to the peseta unhappy revival of the charge, trora
which she was then so triumphantly vindicated r • ,
"It shall at no time be said, with truth, that -1,-
" shrunk back from these infamous charges; that I
crouched before my enemies ; and Courted then),
" by my :submiision, into moderation I No; I_ have
" ever boldly defied them. I have ever felt, and ttill
" feel, that, if they should think either of pursuing
" these accusations, or of bringiagforward any oiler.
" which the wickedness (!f individual: may devise to
dfict my honour (since my conscience tells me that
" they must be as base and groundless as those
" brought by Lady Douglas), while the witnesses to
" the innocence Vow conduct are.ull living, I should
" be able to disprove them al I; and, whoever may be
" my accusers, to triumph over their wickedness and
" malice. But should these accusations be renewed,
" or any other be brought forward, in any futeere time,
" death may, I know not had soon, remove from my
" innocence its best security, and deprive me of the•
" means of my justification and my defence.

" There are, therefore, other measures, which I
" trust your Majesty 'will think indispensable to be
" taken, for my lionoitr and for my security.—
" Amongst these, I most hitmbly submit to your
" Majesty my most earnest entreaties, that the pro-
" ceedings, including not only my firstansivir, and
" my letter of the Bth of December, brit this letter
" also, may be directed by your Majesty to be ab
preserred and deposited, as that they :Clay, 'a)l if
" than, securely remain permanent

" ments and memorials of this accusation, and the
" manner in which I met it—of my defenceots'well •

Iler Majesty delivered the following Answer:
thank you for your loyal and affec donate Address. It is
• to me the greatest consolation to Izais; that during so usany
years of unmerited persecution, notwithstanding the naive amid
. persevering dissemination of the most deliberate calumnies
against me, the kind and favourable sentiments with which
they did me the honour to approach me on my arrival In this
country, have undergone neither diminution nor change in the
hearts of the Citizens of London.
" The sense of indignation and abhorrence you express against
the foul and detestable conspiracy, which, 'by perjured and su-
. bonied traducers, has been carried ..on against my life and ho-
nour, is worthy of you, and most gratifying to me. It must
b. duly appreciated by every branch of that illustrious house
wli:ch I assi so closely connected by blood and marriage;
the personal welfare of eve-y one of whom must have been af--
• fectA by the suecess of such atrociolls machinations.
" The Consciousness of say innocence has supported me through
my long, severe, and unmerited Weds; your approbation of my
er -.duct under them is a reward fur all my sufferings.

" I slwll nct lose any opportunity I muy be permitted to enjoy
of encouraging the talents and virtues of my dear daughter, the'

aerie of the obligation conferred on the by this spontaneows.dct
ct your justice and generosity.
" She will therein clearly perceive the value of thatlree Con-
' stitution, which, in the natural course of events, it will be her

high duty to preside aver. and her sacred duty to maintain ;

which allows no one to sink under oppression; and she will ever

" Be assured that. the cordial and convinciat prise( yaw have

The only topic of conversation in every circle is
the circumstances connected with the return of the
QUEEN of ENGLAND, and the consequences to which
this event may lead. And indeed it is impossible
for the imagination to conceive any occurrence
• connected with human actions more calculated to
excite and call into operation all the energies of the
human mind. We endeavoured yesterday to present
to our .Readers as correct a delineation as our pages
could admit, of all that had occurred down to cur
hour of publication; and, in a Second Edition, such
farther particulars as might tend to gratify public
curiosity respecting the first steps taken by Ministers in
Parliament, in consequence of her MAJESTY'S arrival.
It yet remains to be seen in what situation Minis-
ters have been placed, or have placed themselves, by
the steps that have been pursued respecting her MA•
3F.STY. The Cabinet sat in deliberation on Monday
night from nine o'clock till past twelve, at the Earl
ut LivitaPoon's house: they met again yesterday
morning, at ten o'clock, and sat till half-past twelve.
The proceedings in both Houses of Parliament last
night, which will be read with feelings of deep in-
term by every individual, develope pretty clearly
what formed the subject of deliberation at these meet-
ings—a Messagesfrom the KING was presented to,
both Houses, that « His MAJESTY, in consequence of
the arrival of the QUEEN, had deemed it necessary',
to communicate to them certain papers, relative to
the conduct of her MAJESTY since her dcpartnre from
this country."—After the breaking up of the Itouse,
the Cabinet Ministers sat again last night in delibera-
tion at the Earl of LIVERPOOL'S house, in Whitehall.
The papers alluded to in the Message were pre-'
sented in a sealed green bag, and thus it would ap-
pear the Parliament is, as in the infamous times of
HENRY VIII. attempted to be made a slcret Inqui-
sition, on a question of such a nature as our fore-
fathers thought, in the case of ANNE Butaxu,
should have been inquired into only in open
• Cot t--7only where the accused could confront the
eijencn. Wc pretend to no prescience, but it re-

quires but little sagacity to foresee the difficulty with
which Ministers can extricate themselves from a
most perplexing dilemma.. It would appear they have
lent themselves to, or have themselves made, a pro-
posal to TUE QUEEN OF ENGLAND I to abdicate her
rights—rights that as much belong to her as the Im-
pedal Crown to his MAJEts.rx—for 1:50,060 a.year ;
and this accompanied with a threat, that should her
MAJESTY reject the offer—an offer, the-acceptance of
which would have covered ME QUEEN OF ENGLAND
with infamy—proceedings would be instituted against'
ner MAJESTY instantly on her arrival in 'England!!
If the QUEEN be innocent of the crimes which bee
enemies would fix upon her, what could actuate
Mi-
nisters to propose, or justify them for having pro-
posed, to her MAJEsvy,ito become a party to her
own degradation ?—lf guilty, how can they stand
acquitted in proposing to load this Country with a
pension of £50,000 a-year to maintain such a person
in affluence and splendour in a-foreign country ?—lf
guilty, should they not rather have done everything
in their power to bring her to justice? We have all
beard of the breach of law called a compounding
of felony. In this case those who should prosecute
Are always supposed to have received some considera-
tion ; but we know not how to class the offer of a
bribe to a guilty individual, to induce that individual
to avoid punishment !

But the case may be put in a third form—Mini-
sters believe the person to be innocent, and yet offer
that person a bribe to alienate herself from her coun-
try and prerogatives. If so, what can be their mo-
tives ? If so, what must be the feelings of the coun-
try towards them, should this fact be established
hereafter !

Britons never will be brought to abandon the old
English maxim, that every person must be held inno-
cent till proved otherwise by open procedure in an
open Court. The lowest subject has this right when
zccused ; and we doubt not that the Quail.; of ENG-
LAND, in spite of Green-bags, will assert her claim to
the just protection'of the Laws of the Empire.
A variety of interesting particulars respecting the
negotiations at St. Omer's, and her Ma'am's jour-
ney to town, will be found in our preceding columns.
Yesterday evening, after her MAJESTY had retired
from sheaving herself to the populace, Messengers
were continually passing to and from the house, and
several distinguished persons left their names in the
course of the evening. Amongst them were the Hon.
G. BENNETT, Sir R. WILSON, Mr. HUAI E, M.P. &c.&c.
Mr. DENbt AN, the Quzates Solicitor-General, called
soon after her arrival, and had an interview with her
Maizsrv. He remained about an hour. He was
recognized, as was Sir R. WILsoN and Mr.BaNNarr,
and loudly cheered.
Her MAJESTY dined about nine o'clock. The mem-
bers of Mr. Alderman Wool:is family only were pre-
sent. The answer to all inquiries at the door were,
that the Qualm could see no person until to-morrow.
As late as eleven o'clock, the crowd continued very
great, and the calls for the QuaaN were loud and in-
cessant, till Alderman WOOD again came forivard,
and observed that her MAJESTY was extremely fa-
tigued, and hoped they would not persevere in their
request. The Alderman was loudly cheered, and his
address appeared to have the desired effect.

At an early hour this forenoon, South Andley-
street was again completely filled with people, anxious
to obtain a sight of the Queen. Her MAsasxr, we
were happy to learn, had had a good night's repose,
and promises to be soon completely recovered from
her late long, and, to both mind and body, molt
harassing journey.

We arc informed, that a Requisition to ARTHUR
Moanis, Esq. High Bailiff of Westminster, with nu-
merous and respectable signatures, is to be presented
to him today, for the purpose of calling a Meeting
of the Inhabitant Householders of Westminster, to
prepare an Address of Congratulation to her MA-
JESTY on her return to this country. A similar step
is said to be also taking in the City of London..

The Paris Papers of Sunday arrived this forenoon.

The Chamber of Deputies came, on Saturday, to
another important decision on the Election Project
of Law. After the rejection of the Amendment of
M. CAMILLE JOURDAN, another Amendment was
proposed by M. DESROLTSEAUX which, in the esti-
mation of the left side, was nearly equivalent to.the
one rejected. The question of priority was again
started between this new Amendment and the first
article of the project, and decided by a small majo-
rity in favour of the latter. The Chamber then im-
mediately proceeded to vote on the first paragraph
of article first, which is in these words—" In each
Department there shall be an Electoral College for
the Department, and Electoral Colleges of Arron-
dissement." The votes were—For the Paragtapb,
120—Against it, 125—Majority, fare. Only two
Members were absent.

Our Readers are, of course, aware, that the para-
graph thus adopted is decisive of the spirit of the law.
'lt establishes, that in future the election of Deputies
shalt not be a direct, but. an indirect process; that is,
the people, or such of them as have the elective fran-
chise, are only to elect delegates, and these delegates,
few in number, and exposed to a thousand undue in-
fluences, from which the mass of the people would
be exempt, are to elect the Deputier.
The French may, however, still flatter themselves
with being better off as to their system of represen-
tation than even their, regenerated and democratic
neighbours, 11.4: SpaLfards. The French system of

.

Election is to be by two degrees ; the Spinish system,
according to the hew Constitution, establishes no Less
thanfokrl. How far are both countries from a full,
fair, and free reprSentation of the People!
