      At frre o'clock the doors of the Abbey were opened , and many of those having the privilege of being present to witxiess die ; eremony had arrived , and treieseated within its ancient walls very sifordy 2 fterthat time . Carriages continued to arrive in rapid succession for several hours , set down their company , and depart in the best possible order . Before the doors were opened , one immense line of carriages -was formed , -waiting for that event to 3 eposrt jheir viatorsj and as early as half-past four some persons took , their seats m the open air in the galleries erected in the . precincts of the Abbey , so great Taj the anxiety tosecure seats to prevent the remotest possibility of a disappointment . At break of day the weather was lowering heavv , and unpropitious

      in aspect , but as the day advanced the sky became less threatening , although at no time was there any appearance in die fare of the sky to encourage hopes of a really fine day . It was much , however , to say that it did not rain , and that it held up well until erervbody had got comfortably seated in his place . . At a quarter before four , the day was ushered in by the firing of a royal salute of twenty-one guns , and the town soon begun to be on the move , and in an hour from that time the remoter parts of the metropolis fc § zan rapidly to pour out their restless numbers . Hie streams all set one war ; all were hastening

      towards the stage upon which was to be exhibited a spectacle which the majority neither espect nor wish again to be repeated in their time . Jojonsnes * . happiness , and loyalty appeared to swell every br < a-t ; and never , perhaos , -was there a Sovereign that came to The throne of £ nglind who * o entirely possessed not only the good wishes , but the low and affection of the people as does our present Queen ; and how should it be otherwise—young , amiable , lovely , and gay—the patroness ofall that is charitable and useful , and liberal , and good , how can it be otherwise ? It is impossible that such a Sovereign can have an

      enemy . The preparations for doing all due honour to the day , ail along the hue of procession , were in many places on a -very mangnificent scale . On both sides of the triumphal arch at Hyde-park-corner a strong stone work was erected , and commanded a fine view of the procession as it came up Corstitution-HH . On the roofs of the house * in Grosvenor-place , similar works were thrown Tip . The preparations for beholding the procession and for illumination at Baron Rotliichild ^ s and Lord Coventry ' s were elegant , many of the houses on that side of the way were tastefully and elegantly fitted up . Devon . « hirehcuse was trn-v elegant . On a level -with the wall ? of

      the co ^ n-yard alaxge balcony tatteFnlly di-nded into "boxes , and in comfort and decoration strongly resembling a box in the " dre ? s circle , " was erected , a profusion of crimson cloth lined every part of the large space in front , and pannels with very elegant nit hieroglyphics completed the Illusion . " God save our Qaeen" in elegantly variegated lamps Surmounted , and extended the length of the balcony . The effect of the whole was "b eautiful , and excited admiration , which wa ^ not alittlehf ightened by a pair of stapeadc-us flags suspended from the roofj of Hoby ' s and the Gloucester Coffee-hoos * . and which formed a characteristic finale to that street . In St . James sstreet Crockford's was very conspicuous ; the frontage

      of that elegant building was > formed into a series of b&lcenies , covered with crimson cloth ; "Victoria Regina , " in variegated lamps occupied the entire front , the effect of which npon such a ground , when lighted , must be very fine . Brooks ' . " vThites , and Arthur ' s club-houses in that street , with many of the trades-people ' s shops exhibited much taste . Sonie wp . re profuse in their decorations . A Cro-KTi—3 star—the letters V Jt—a wreath in ja-U ? gated lamps or gas , were The prevailing symbols . The preparations at English ' s Hotel , at the foot of St . James ' -street , and Sams ' j Library , were verv tasteful . A balcony was thrown up in front of Marlborongh House , Pall-malL and the

      profaaon of laurel with , which it was covered gaTeit a T 2 ry rural and bower-like appearance . The Chdbrd and Cambridge Club House had its ialconies elegantly and commodiousl y fitted upa star , surmounted by a crown of colossal proportions , had a fine effect . Branscomb ' g , tea dealer , had a star and wreath . The Carlton , the Traveller , and the Athenaeum , had their respective Montages elegantly fitted tip with gas fittings and Tamps , with a variety of devices . The Ordnance Office presented a very splendid appearance ; the arangements there are very characteristic—a crown of variegated lamps of immense proportions -was in &e centre , on either side a star , and pieces of ordnance , and shells in pyramid precision , composed

      of rariegated lamps , with stands of colours and other warlike devices , gare peculiar significance and elegance to this exhibition . The Opera Honse . National Gallery , and the office of the M Mirror tf Parliament , " Cockspnx-street , were profuse ia their arrangements for illuminating . Those at Charmg Cross were fuuyequal to any former exhibi-QD 2 S . - At a quarter to eleven o ' clock , at the extremity of PaD-mall , a cry reverberated" the Queen—they are : coming , " when the pressure in the line of march in sa instant became tremendous , and the cries of nisn , women , and children , became louder and loader , till nothing could be heard but a continued Toat , which ' increased as the procession progressed on its way . '

      The procession was then seen traTungitsslowlength along , and the rich uniforms of the soldiery , and ™ e gorgeous liveries of the servants of the different ffflhassadors as seen at intervals , and the ealvacade had an exceedingly imposing effect . When the royal carriage made its appearance , a sinmltaneans ««> pt burst forth , which hecame extended to the tento of the Kne .

      ad more foresight , rushed back again toward Charing-cross , and all the other avenues of depatta e , while another current of curious competitors rushed against them in hot haste , only to gain the same disappointing experience that those now elbowing their ^ way northward bore upon their grinning and p ergpiriue faces . These were the two counteracting lines , and they struggled betweem a series of pa . -jflve one * . One flanked the scaffolding all the way . The bodices and bustles of the ladies m this line seemed in many cases to bid defiance to a battering Tam—«> their equanimity might be accounted for . But the men must have had their ribs p-orposel y incased in . iron ) otherwise there is no explaining their imperturbabflity . The other lines were the police and the - . ^ ¦ ^^ .

      dragoons , from whose horser tails both the ' force and the spectators seemed particularly anxious to keep at a respectful distance . At eight minutes past ten , by th& clock of St Margaret's the first Toyal salute of twenty-one guns annonnced that her Majesty had entered the state carriage at Buckingham Palace . The Abbey bells immediately struck up a merry peal , and continued to ring alternately with those of St Margaret ' s . At about a quarter before eleven a general murmur echoed along the line from Charing-cross to the i » obey , gave an intimation that the procession was in sight , and in a tew minutes appeared The Duchess of Kent , the Duke of Sussex , and the other branches of the R ^ yal Family were most enthusiastically cheered . The reception of the mother of her Majesty and of the Duke of Sussex was ^ particularly warm , as - was that also of Marshal Sonlt , who was recognized immediately , and acknowledged

      the repeated greetings with much apparent feeling . The moment for one tremendous and unanimous burst of applause was reserved for the approach of the sovereign . Her Majesty was received iu the mortrapturousmanner . T'hespectatorsroteenmasse —the ladies waving their handkerchief * , and the gentlemen cheering , clapping their hands , and wavingtheir hats . Her Majesty looked in as many different ways aspos ^ ible , andbowed most graciously on every side , as if anxious to show all that she ap-}> reciated their loyalty and affection . Her M njesty opked particularly well , and bore herself with that dignified ease and grace which uniformly characterises her conduct on all occasions , whether public or private . The procession formed in St . James ' s Park af -9 o'clock , and started from the Palace at ten oclock precisely . The route was up Constitution-hill , along Piccadilly , St . Jameg ' s-street , Pall-mall , Cockspur-street , CLaring-cross , Whitehall , Parliament-street , to the wt stem door of Westminster Abbey ; the return was bv the same route , and in the same order .

      -. Toe direction of the procession was under the orders of " the . Master of the Horse . The equipages of the various resident and extraordinary Ambassadors excited universal admiration They were splendid iu the extreme , indeed so magnificent were the majority of them that they appeared quite to eclipse the splendour of most other carriages in the proct ? 5 £ sioj 2 , with the exception o ; the state coach . The people i n the streets were in the best possible temper ; and nothine eonld exceed the peace and good order that reigned among . all . A universal smile ofpleasure and satis faction had diffused itst-lf on the faces of all ; and the weather , from being bccasionallv cloudy , was much more favourable for the occasion ttana finer day tfbuld"have been , as it was consequently less oppressive to those who had no shelter .

      At half-past eleren another royal salute announced her Majesty ' s entrance into the Abbey , and that point ended the intere .-t . for a time at least , ot tho > e out of the Abbey , while it commenced for those within .

      INTERIOR OF THE ABBEY . All the stalls , reauiug-dt « kg , and pews were removed to make way for the fittings-up ; in their place were erected five rows of benches on either side : that on the right for the accommodation of the law officers and knights of the Bath , a ]] of whom are privileged to be present at this august ceremony : while the left was appropriated to the officers of ihe royal household and the members of the must Honourable Privy Council . Above these seats were 3 rected , two rows of galleries at each side , which reach to the point where the transept

      intersects the choir . The vaultings above these galleries on either side are also fitted up for the accommodation of spectators ; it -was from these , which TUH round ihe whole edifice- including , the transept and Henry the Seventh ' s chapel , that the public were allowed to hear the rehearsal of the muiic on Tuesday . All these galleries were lined in front towards the choir with tasteful ' -crimson draperies , edged and flounced with gold-coloured fringe . There were gilt railings along the benches running up the choir , which gave a tasteful finish to the whole . Between them the royal procession is to advance on its wav to the theatre in the rnntiv .

      under the lantern in the tower , where the coronation ceremonies will be performed . At th « end ot the choir , where it adjoins the intersection of the transepts at the western end , were five raised steps , leading , to the elevated dais , on which was raised the theatre , in its centre exactly ; the benches of the Princesses on the left hand , facing the high altar ; that f .- -r the Peers directly opposite them , in the southern transept , better kiiown as Poets ' Corner . There are also galleries on each side of the two transepts similarly decorated -with the otlier galleries already de > crib ( . ' < L

      At the point of intersection of the north transept and the chancel where stands the altar , stood the pulpit from which the Bishop of London , to whom on these great occasions that high honour devolves , is Jo preach the coronation sermon ; it is a small structure , and a staircase nearly straight leads to it . The platform on which the Queen sits to * rerceive the homage of her Peers is elevated some steps , and on it stoodherMaje ? ty s throne to the right-hand towards the Peers' transept . Beyond this , and immediately under the gallery to be presently occupied by the Members of the House of Commons , is the sacrarium , fn which were placed the altar and the necessary regalia used in the ceremonial .

      The distance from the platform to the interior o the Sacrarium was about twelve feet . The principal object which caught the eye here was the altar itself , the back of which was covered with blue and gold . Beside it to the right hand was the offering table nsed during the ceremony . On the left hand , immediately adjoining the altar wis the chair of the Archbishop of Canterbury , the chief officiating prelate ; it was of oak , in corresponding style to that of the AVbey itself—pure Gothic . It was ' comfortably stuffed with bishop ' s purple velvet . Beside it was hisgrace's kneeling cushion , and a similar one at . the right hand of the altar , near the offering-table , for the Dean of Westminster . We take the following account of these parts of the paraphernalia from a former Gazette account , which of course is more accurate than we could pretend to be from the cursory view we were enabled to have of them : The back of the altar was covered with bine and

      gold brocade . This drapery was coiled up with ropes of gold . It was surmounted by a cornice composed by two-inch-and-a-half gold and silk rope , with large gilt rosettes to each pipe . The fringe was of gold and silk , four inchei deep . On the left tand , or north side of th& altar , stood the chair of the Archbishop of Canterbury ; it was of oak . The back , seat , and elbows were stuffed and covered with velvet of the colour called Bishop ' s purple , and was panelled with gold lace . There was a footstool to match , which was covered with purple velvet , and ornamented with gimp . Besides this , there was a mented with gimp . Besides this , there was a

      kneeling cushion , for the Archbishop , covered with purple velvet , and a similar cushion for the Dean . of Westminster on the other side . The step leading to the altar and the floor of the sacrarium was covered with a garter blue and gold Wilton carpet . The pattern was the Norman rose with " the ermine . On the right of the altar stood the offering table , which was covered with garter blue Genoa velvet , bordered with lace , and fringed with gold . Upon this , preparatory to the ceremonies , was placed a cushion , upon which the offering * were to be made , covered with garter blue velvet , panelled with gold lace , and with four gold tassels at ttie comers .

      Such was the scene early this morning , before the Abbey commenced filling with its various distinguished inmates . Above the sacrarium was the gaUerr of the House of Common ? , which certainly afforded the best -view of the ceremonial , as during nearly ^ the whole of it , her Majesty faced their gallery . At the top was a small elevated platform , on which were stationed ihe state trumpeters , to whom was allotted a" portion of the musical performances , such as sounding a royal salnte the instant hsr Majesty entered the choir , which was the signal for all present to rise and receive her Majesty with loud and repeated acclamations , and at one or two other points of the ceremonial . The galleries were early crowded as we have stated , and for some time , until 9 ' clock , little occurred to occupy the attention of their occupants , or wile away-the time . The company to the lower parts of

      the Abbey , the chair seats , < fec , continued to airire in rapid succession up to 10 o ' clock , when nearly all the seats having a view of the ceremony were completely occupied . The coup ( Fail all this time was superb ; we shall not attempt to descriteit . TheJPeers and Peeresses , in their robes of state , and otiierssnmmoned by her Majesty ' s command to witness the ceremoay ^ f the Coronation , had been conducted to the places assigned to them in Westminster Abbey previously to the arrival ofherMajegty ; the Lords Spiritual on the north side of the area or gacrarium ; the Lords Temporal in the south transept s and the Peeresses in the north transept . The great Officers of State , the Archbishops of Can rbury and York , the Noblemen appointed to carry _ the regalia , all in their robes of estate , and the Bishops who supported he rMajesty , as well as those who carried the Bible , the Chalice " , and the Patina , assembled in the Jerusalem Chamber , ad-

H « r M ajesty ' s arrival at the great western door wa < long heralded by the loud and ne&rty acclamations of the people , who crowded every nook adjoining the Abbey , or from which tie slightest glimpse of the royal cortege could be obtained . Their cries were

      as instantly taken up by the artillery tiring a royal salnte of 21 guns , dcring which her Majesty alighted from the state carriage , the band stationed near playing " God save the Queen . " From the time when a . smilar royal salvo of 51 ms announced her Majesty ' s ¦' departure ' from Buckingham Palace was as nearly as possible an hour . ¦ - On arrival at the west entrance of the Abbey , her Majesty was received by the Great Officers of ' State , the nobleman bearing the regalia , and the Bishops carrying the panna , the . Chalice , and the Bible ; ¦ wlien her Majesty repaired to her robing chamber , constructed on the right of the platform without the entrance .

      The ladies of her Majesty s Household , and the officers of the Royal Household , and of the respective households of the Princes and Princesses , to whom duties were not assigned in the solemnity , immediately passed to the places prepared for them respectively . Her Majesty , having been robed , advanced up the nave into the choir ; the choristers in the orche .-trH singing the anthem "I vras glad when they said unto me , we will go into ^ tke house of the Lord .
