Etiquette will not allow of the Queen making any speech
upon her health being drunk on Lord Mayor's Day; but it is supposed that Lord Melbourne will receive the royal command to be the organ of her Majesty's sentiment; upon the occasion.-3fornino Herald.
From a paragraph now on the rounds of the .Ministerial press, we perceive that the .11,uche,ter Guardian is quite solemn and itelienant on the subject of Jilin Butts story of land Melbourne's gallantry at Windsor. The Manchester heroics are very amusing:— 4, What, we a,!: any decent Englishman, of whatever party, ran he more le- volting than the insinuation it contains' Neither 1110fC 1101 less them the per- sonal virtue of the (2m.y:a is in danger of being undermined by her Ps into Minister ! We will not waste a word in reply to such a base insinuation. We will simply request nor readers to consider how intense must be the batiouvuess which is capable of having recourse to such tot odious means of endeavouring to bring discredit on the heal of a Ministry. The desperate outrageousness of the attempt, however, will assuredly cause it to fail."
Oh yes, it will fail. Notwithstanding its " desperate outrageousness," everybody is laughing at Bull's fabrication ; and the character of the " head of the Ministry" is as pure as ever.
Wyon, of the Royal Mint, has been eminently successful in pre- paring a head of the Queen for the coin of the realm, which will be generally circulated in the course of a few mouths. Mr. Wyon had previously invented another medallion of equal beauty, but unfortu- nately the die cracked in the operation.—Post.
