Her Majesty having been referred by the Duke of
Norfolk, the hereditary Earl 3larshal of England, to
the acting Earl MarAal, Lord Howard of Effingham,
has written to the latter Nohletnan to knew what r-
tendants he intends to provi:!e for her at the Abbey,
in order that she may direct corresponding arraege-
ments in her suite. It appears that the Duke of Nor-
folk thought it proper to 1-0mm:1814-ate the letter he had
received to Lord Sultnouth. Lord Si.lmouth then wrote
to the Queen a letter, in which he merely stated the
the fact that such a letter had been received by hint.—
Her Majesty immediately sent to the Home Secretary
in reply a note expressive of her surprise that be had
taken no other t o ice of that communication. The
following is the letter which was sent by her Majesty's
command to the Duke of Norfolk :

6' Mr Lotto—Her Majesty has commanded me to sae,
en it is her intention to be in Westminster Abbey on the
19th instant, during the ceremony of the Coronation of
the Kinir, your (;race is required to appoint persons to

her to her seat. Ihe hour her Majesty has named to be

LONDON:
WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 18,1821.

In addition to the " Argument" of her MAJESTY'S
Counsel in suppers of the Quers's right to be crowned,
there is now published " her MAJESTY'S Protest
against the decision of the Privy Council" on her claim.
The length of the •• Argument" and the copious r•-
port we had previously given of the speeches of Mr.
Bnorottsat and Mr. DENMAN in the point in question,
rendered it inexpedient for us to insert the former a:.
title : the " Protest" we give at length, as a docu.
anent to be preserved ; and the style in which it is
written precludes the necessity of comment. Relative
to the other claim her MAJESTY has advanced since the
derision of the Privy Council, we have this day to add
the letter front the Acting EtRL MARSHAL to Lord
Moo, her MAJF.STV'P Chamberlain, which our readers
will find in another of our columns. By this it will
appear that the Acting Etat. MASSES', having
thought it incumbent on him to lay the letter of Lord
Hoots before the Secretary of State fur the Home De-
partment, received an answer fr in Lord Stemorro
stating, that he also had received an intimation from
the Queem of her Maass-yes intention and
demand as to the ceremony of the 19th, and
that he had been commanded by the Kim; to acquaint
her MaJesrv, that it was not his MA.H.:trre* pleasure
to comply with the application contained in her MA•
Jeirrea letter. Under these circumstance the Souk
Mangum. stated the impossibility of his having the
honour of obeying her MAJESTY'S command; and at
this point the official correspondence rests. Based,
however, as the Qi•Eex may be in formal applications,
another mode remains ; and that her MAJESTY appears
to be resolved to try. By her Pretest, she implies that
she still retains the consciousness of all her rights;
nd front the spirit she eviuces in asserting them, it is
inferred that she will, to-morrow, apply in person at
the cl.•or of Westminster Abbey, and, as she had inti-
mated, demand admission. In this belief,
it is tinder-
stood in the blinimerial circles, that final orders hare
been issued, that should her MAJEsri present herself,
she is to experience no obstruction; and that free ad.
mission will be granted to her immediate atteodants
as well as herself; hut that no followers will, on any
account, he permitted to pass the barrier. The lat-
ter intimation has arisen from a notion is hich
was groundlessly and injudiciously circidated 011 Satur-
day, that a Committee teas forming to arrange an
escort similar to that which accompanied her MAJ LA I Y
'to St. Paul's. No such est ort, n e early took occasion
to state, had ever been contemplated ; and it is highly
seressary that such an ilea, and eve y other which has
a tendency to excite alarm, should be scouted, iu order
