On Thursday, her Majesty was present at the consecration of Hemp; ton New Church.- The crowd that assembled to gaze on the Queen was very great, notwithstanding the unpitying do,vn-pouring of the wettest day that we have experienced for many weeks past. The town was extremely busy with visitors on the occasion. Next week will break in upon the sober routine of peaceful enjoyment which their Majesties have indulged in for some weeks past. The Coro- nation over, they will quit town for the season. The summer of the ca- pital trenches for the most part on autumn, but this year it bids fair to encroach on winter. So much for the pertinacity of the Commons; from which, as in many other acts of human error, the authors are, after all, likely to suffer least. When the Bill has gone to the Upper House, the members of the Lower will doubtless hasten to join their master ; but as for the Lords—Lord knows when they'll get away !
THE CORONATION.—This pageant will take place, as originally ap. pointed, on Thursday next. The Daily Papers have given, from the.
Gazette, a long, minute, and not very amusing programme of the cere- monies to be observed in the Abbey. Of these, when we have learned how many are observed, and how many dispensed with—how many are omit- ted from design, and how many from forgetfulness—it shall be our hint to speak. In the mean time, we give the particulars of the procession in which a thousand to one are concerned ; that which concerns one of a thousand we shall attend to next week. The out-doors procession will be arranged as follows.

The Procession will form down Constitution Hill at nine o'clock, start from St. James's at half-past ten, and reach the Abbey at half-past eleven. The route is by Pall Mall, Charing Cross, Whitehall, Parliament Street, to the West gate of West- minster Abbey.
There is nothing very new in all this—the procession to Parliament was very nearly as grand. and every whit as interesting. If, as it is stated in some of the Daily prints, the owners of windows and balconies get a guinea for such a sight, we can only say that guineas are much more plentiful in England than we have hitherto had reason to believe. However, the bill of fare is before our readers ; and if they think it worth a guinea, let them make the purchase. The length of the street to be travelled over by the procession, in going and returning, is shoat a couple of miles ; by a little mutual accommodation, two or three hundred thousand gazers may witm es'the whole show without much difficulty. We can hardly suppose that there will be many more to gaze. To those who prefer looking on lords and ladies to looking on horses and coaches, we recommend Old Palace Yard, if they can get thither. The march— or run rather—from the House of Lords to the Abbey, will begin, we suppose, about eight o'clock. We do not know whether the Peeresses intend to carry their trains or drag them : much will depend on the weather.
Among the defects of the Coronation, there is one which appears strange, but for which there is doubtless good and sufficient reason : where is the Duchess of Kent? where is the Princess Victoria ?—the contemplated Regent of the Kingdom—the Heir Presumptive of the Throne ? We hope they are not Anti-Reformers.
