PARIS, December 3.
When his majesty the emperor presented
himlelfat the altar to be crowned, he took
himfelf the imperial crown and placed it on
his head ; it was a diadem of leaves of oak
and laurel in gold. His fnajefiy after
wards took up the crown destined for the
ernprefs, and after having decorated himfelf
With It tur a few luusiciiis, he placed if' Sm
the head of his august spouse.
Consecration is an important ceremony,
more particularly at the cornation of a
dynasty, since in some fort it places under
the fafeguard of heaven the mutual right*
and duties of the foverign and people \ w«
therefore think it our duty to report as a
precious monument for posterity, the prin
cipal prayers afed on the occasion. They
are for the mod part taken from the Roman
pontifical arid the ceremonial used at the.
consecration of the kings of France.
After Pent Creator , his Holincfs addrelfei
th« following question to the Emperor—
Our very dear brother in Jesus Chrid, do
you profefs and promise before God and the
angels, to observe the law, to render jefticc
to all your fubjefts, to maintain peace in
the church of Gsd with the fuccoursol his
grace, in the way you (hall judge moll
proper and according to the advice of its
mod faithful counfellors, and to take scare
tWht the pontiffs of the church (hall enjoy
that vefpeft and those honors which are due
to them according to the holy canons ?
His Imperial Majesty placing his hands
on the book of the Evangelills prefentedby
the grand almoner, answered, Prof tear.
After a prayer and the litanies of the
faints, which his Holincfs recited ®n his
knees with the archbilhops and bifltops, his
Holincfs alone arose and turning towards
their Majcfties he recited th* three follow
ing verses:
Deign to blcfs thy servant, who is about
to be crowned Emperor, and the Emprcfs
his wife.
Deign to bless and elevate in glory your
servant who is about to be crowned
ror, and the Ernprefs his wife.
Deign to blcfs, raise in glory, and con
secrate your servant, who is about to be
crowned Emperor, and the Ernprefs his wife.

Broad-Street,' during an illumina

alkcd him how he dared to deflroy people’s
windows in such a manner, O, (said the
urchin) it's all for the good of the trade—
