may add that the price of the Churchman places it

7;;;;17.; THE CORONATION.
( Franz the M3?niny Herald of Friday.)
The public wilrtind in our columns to-day copious
and interesting details of the great national ceremo-
nial which was. celebrated in Westminster Abbey yes-
terday, as well as of the brilliant, enlivening, and pic-
turesque display, which was exhibited along the line
of the procession, where countless multitudes of her
subjects thronged to pour forth their heartfelt homage
to our young and interesting Queen.
For the first time in a monarchy which has endured
a thousand years was the spectacle presented, Which
was witnessed yesterday, of a Queen so young, going
forth to receive from the assembled estates of her realm
the-Crown of her ancestors, ratified by the acclama-
tions of her people.
We have more than once expressed our regret that
this- ancient and solemn ceremonial should have suffered
any curtailment, and that hall of Victoria's sainted an-
cestor, Edward the Confessor—the most superb in Eu-
rope—as rebuilt by William Rufus, should have been
dark and silent, where formerly the newly-enthroned
sovereign met her assembled peers and dignitaries of
the realm under circumstances which blended the an-
cient days and earliest glories of the monarchy with
the elegance and splendour of modern times. On this
occasion, not only was the " Banquet Hall deserted,"
and the last representative of the chivalrous ages—
the gauntletted champion—denied to the virgin Queen,
but not a flag waved from the ancient palace of Eng-
land's kings, where the royal standard once so proudly
floated.

As to the cavalcade, which will be found elsewhere
described in detail, it was, indeed, truly magnificent.
The view from Trafalgar-square down Parliament-
street towards the Abbey, presented to those who were
fortunate enough to be in a position to overlook the
whole of the long line of superb equipages, guards,
&c., one of the finest coups d'ceil that was ever wit-
nessed, even in the metropolis of Great Britain. The
carriages of the representatives of foreign powers,
with their caparisons, were very splendid • but all that
dazzled the eyes in he pageant, and took the senses
captive, was inferior to the. moral interest with which
the spectacle.was clothed; for what heart could behold
unmoved the young and • lovely "representative of a
long line of Kings, whom Providence had called at so.
early an age to wield the sceptre of earth's greatest
empire, visibly affected by the mingled emotions which
such a scene was calculated to inspire, - and touched
even to tears while receiving the enthusiastic homage
of her people? Cold indeed must be the heart, and
dull the intellect, that could be insensible. to the moral
charm of a scene so impressive and sublitne.
May the sunlight which dispelled the Cloudi and
gloom of -the morning, on the day of Victoria's coro-
nation, be the harbinger of -a reign bringing a. pros,
perous future to England, and brightenink into glory.
•
as it grows in years!
May she who is the chief of the nation, the beloved
of her people, and the ornament of her sex, support,
like the wisest and best of her illustrious predecessors;:
the'dignity and grandeur of England's monarchy, and
never forget the principles which placed the House of
Brunswick on the throne !

(From the Times of Friday.)
The details of the coronation-day of Queen 'Victo-
ria are given at full length in the columns of this jour-
nal. Enough will thence appear to gratify the taste
for gay, as well as for solemn, splendour. 'the pro-
cession out of doors, in which so many distinguished
foreigners—representatives of the most powerful so-
vereigns on earth—took part, and brought with them
such evidence as demonstrations of that external and
superficial nature cart furnish to the amicable feelings
of their respective governments towards the British
Crown—the sprightly and animating accompaniment
of our fine and humane soldiers—the various pomp
and circumstance of peaceful- royalty amongst a free
people—but beyond everything, and above every-
thing, the elated spirit, the joyous physiognomy, the
kindly, neighbourly, manly, and hearty co-operation
300,000 or 400,000 assembled Englishmen in promot-
ing their common objectviz., the exclusion of all un-
pleasant occurrences from the day, and the association
of grateful-remembrances with the manner of giving
it celebrity—these things, taken together, must suf-
fice, by the mere record of them, to satisfy the curio-
sity ,of. our native readers, and to assist in their minds
the cultivation of better feelings than curiosity.
The spectacle of the streets, and indeed of the inte-
rior of the houses before which the procession passed,
must have struck.the foreign personages who attended
with wonder, not wholly unmixed with awe. The
earth was alive with men; the habitations in the line
of march cast forth their occupants to the balconies or
the house-tops. The'windows were lifted out of their
frames, and the asylum of domestic life—that sanctu-
ary which our countrymen guard with such traditional
jealousy and love of free agency from the intrusion of
