The Statesman.
London, England, 1820-11-29 00:00:00

the Strand, and particularly thole on the North-
side %trading upon higher ground, were occupied by
e.hiel.s of all deteriptions, and car.-red to excess with
people. This in some measure oh% iatcd the difficulty
of pas‘inE. and the whole mass moved on without aoy
considerable inconvenience.
ST. CLIMINTS CHURCII-V•RD.

Immense crowds occupied nearly the whole of this
open spate, as early as eight o'clock in the morning,
when several rows of carts, waggons, and coaches were
c,rreed, and afforded accommodation to the more distant
spectators. Every window of the church was thronged,
tie roof was completely lined, and numerous heads
peeped out of every opening in the steeple, whilst lean-
ittt,• on one of the urns which adorn its outside, a coal-
heater of Herenlean site wont.' have produced the effect
of a .v.itoe lark with anti/pity; had not the occasional
waving,. of his hand announced to the multitudes below
fiat lilr and sense were in the figure, and that the
Queen was approaching. All the houses displayed
at every isintlow, as well as on their roofs, crowds
of ladies and gentlemen, and when the head of the
cavalcade appeared, the waving of a thousand hand-
kerchiefs from every floor gave an animation to the scene

which can only he conceived by those who witnessed this
unbought effusion of genuine enthusiasts. About twen-
ty minutes before twelve, the first part of the cavalcade,
tamp flied of most respectable gentlemen, had passeJ,and
t ns.nuteg after her Majesty's carriage appeared and
was received with the loudest acclamations. When it
was opposite the Church a temporary obstruction com-
pe,led the cavalcade to stop. The Queen, at this mo-
wn', leaned towards the window of her carriage, and,
with a polite inclination of the head, returned the marks
of gratulation from the company occupying the windows
of the Statesman Office.

TZM PL[-CAI.

The headmost horsemen did not arrive at this spot
till several minutes past 12. An immense crowd flocked
up all the avenues to this quarter, and the gates being
ciosed, the side passages for entre and e.sit to and from
tar city, were alternately occupied by conflicting cur-
rents of persons pushing their way in our out.
Nee Majesty was received at the gates of the city, h
the City Marshal, dressed in his stve uniform, and his
horse splendidly accoutred ex arte. The Lord Mayor
hit state carriage, attended by Sheriffs Waithman
and William's, and by Alderman Wood, each in their
respective carriage, took his stand at the corner of
hancery-lane, and fell in with the procession imme-
diately pn-eeding her Majesty's carriage, and after
Cie holy of horseman in the van of the whole.

LUDGATE HILL.
On her Majesty's arrival at St. Paul's, at a quarter
past twelve o'clock, the crowd was immense beyond
all precedent. The horsemen here took the precau-
tion to form four a breast, and by this means, a space
of sufficient magnitude was left for the carriages. The
good temper of an English multitude was never more
apparent, than in the feeling exhibited on this occa-
sion. They unanimously linked arms, and thus chained
together by good feeling, fortnd a barrier of protec-
tion to her Majesty, and prevented any interruption
of the procession. At the door of the Cathedral, a
a uncross body of gentlemen, with wand , receiv-
ed her. The music playing 'Bee the Coortering
Hero comes.' The shunts of the multitude rent the
air: the strongest expressions of attachment and
delight were manifested.
ARR. NUEMEATE Pull RECEIVING HER lII•JEETT AT
IT. P CC'S.
A Committee of the friends of the Lord Mayor and
Sheriffs met at eight o'clock last evening at Guildhall,
and continued sitting till ten, making the necessary
arrangements for the day. A rammaajerrrio, was re-
ceived from Lord Sidmoutb, announcing to the Lord
Map,. the approach of large bodies of the military to the
environs of the metropolis, and cot ',eying to his Lordship
the information of their various stations, if he should nerd
their services. An interview also took place with the
Rev. Dr. Hughes, on the part of the Dean and Chap-
ter, the Rev. Gentleman admitted that he earnests-
nicated with the Secretary fee the 110714. Depot-t-
-wat, who, on this occasion. it appears, exercises
some authority over the Cathedral. Every third
that could be construed imto the slightest mark of re-
spect to her Majesty, s;lpears to have been studiously
avoided. The mere outward and necessary insignia
of 'like and respect, a few white waled , were not to
be permitted to defile the Church ; and a party of
above 100 females, who had offered to receive her Ma-
je4ty. had been refused admittance.
INTERIOR Of TUB CATHEDRAL.
The whole of the special constables destined for the
interior of the church, assembled at nine o'clock in the
morning, at Uui/dhall, and thence proceeded in a bo ly
to the Cathedral, taking their stations therein under the
direction of the City Marshals.
At ten o'clock the south doer was opened for the ad-
saissidn of the Canon Residentiary, the Choir, ere. and
at half past tent the northern door was opened to the
Members of the Com n Council. Those two entrances
were then closed for the remainder of the day.
As soon as the Common Council had watered an
taken thoirseats the bell rang for prayers, and the greed
western entrance, opposite Ludgate-hill, was opesed,
to the public ; the special constables having previously
formed a doable line fro. the entrance to the choir I
and the public filing off behind them. The ingress of
the public was thus permitted till half-pat ekes.
o'clock, whoa the doors were closed till the arrival of
the Queen.
