[From the Baliimors American of July 2G ] '
At ten o’clock last night we received by the
Steamboat Line from Philadelphia, the New
York Era of yesterday morning, from which tvs
extract the news which follows:
ANOTHER STEAMER FROM ENGLAND.
NINETEEN DAYS LATER NEWS!
The British steampacket Royal William, which
has hitherto run between Liverpool and
arrived here last evening from Liverpool, under
the command of Lieutenant Swanson, R. N., as- |
ter a passage of nineteen days. .She is a strongly
built vessel, about fifty tons less than the Sirius, j
and is renowned for speed, but on this, her first !
Atlantic trip, she is said to have encountered |
head winds for ten days. She left Liverpool on :
the sth inst., at G o’clock P. M., and arrived olf
the Battery last evening about the same hour.
We are indebted to Mr. James L. Hale, the j
proprietor of the Wall-street News Room, for the !
latest London and Liverpool papers.
Ttiu coronation of the young Q iccn Victoria,
took place on the day appointed, (the 28ih nit.,)
with the utmost conceivable magnificence, gor
geous pageantry, and loyal enthusiasm. For the
information of our fair l eaders, we will just men
tion a few particulars about the young queen’s
dress, deportment, and so fortn-
In the first place then, she is a very pretty
young lady, and site had the good taste' to make
her first appearance in the choir of an immense
abbey in which she was to be crowned Queen of
more than a hundred millions of people, in a
very neat and simple dress. Her gown was of
the purest satin, covered with a transparent dress
of white blond lace, and a circle of diamonds
glistening in her hair. It is a great pity that
tiie sweet effect of this maidenly attire, was
spoiled by so huge and ponderous a train of vel
vet and gold, which, however, as a Queen she
was compelled to wear, and which was borne by
eight young ladies, daughters of peers. The la
dies who performed this humiliating service,
and who are called “ maids of honor,” were
dressed all alike, in white satin, and wore small
while roses in their hair, so that this group of
lovely women must have been a delightful spec
tacle.
On ascending the choir of the cathedral, on
the steps leading to what is called the theatre,
she was compelled to pause nearly a miiftile,
and thus the immense audience had an opportu
nity of gazing on the young creature without an
intervening obstacle. The papers describe her as
slightly affected with the grandeur of the scene
around her and the acclamations which greeted
her; but she is said to have then walked with
grace and self-possession to the seat, at which
she was to receive the “homage of the nobility
and titled clergy. During the ceremony of lire
“homage,” rather a ludicrous accident occurred:
Lord Rolle had reached the tip top step of the
elevated dais, or platform, on which stood the
throne, .before which he was to kneel and kiss
the Queen’s hand, when his lordship’s toes anti
cipated his marrow-bones, and slipping, pitched
him right, backwards, and so Lord Rolle rolled
heels over head down the whole flight of steps
to the next landing place, in the sight and to the
irresistible diversion of forty or fifty thousand
spectators. He did not slide down/ but fairly
rolled over and over, till be became seated with
his back towards majesty, and his face and feet
towards the rest of the world.
However, he soon recovered a perpendicular
position, wheeled about, and reasccndcd the steps
with as good grace as possible, and the good na
lured queen rose from her seat, extended her
hand to him, and expressed a hope that his lord
ship was not materially injured—for which, of
course, she was vastly applauded.
The mere ceremony of the coronation, in its
several stages, such as the investing with the
mantle, the offering of the sword and spurs, the
ring, the sceptres, the crowning, the anointing,
the inlhronization, the offerings, the arrange,
ment of the regalia, and “all that sort of thing.”
We have only to remark that the affair pass
ed off with great spirit, and harmony, and was
altogether the most splendid coronation record
ed in English history. The chivalry of all Eu
rope seems to have been called forth on this oc
casion, and the foreign embassies vied with cadi
other in displaying the most gorgeous parapher
nalia that money could procure.
London, and, indeed, all England, was entire
ly absorbed with the festivities which the occa
sion called forth, and the papers are so com
pletely filled with descriptions, that we can find
scarcely any other kind of news, either domestic
or foreign. We trust that the reign of Queen
Victoria, who was educated in a more hoeral
school than any other British sovereign, will
prove a blessing to her immense empire and fa
vor the progress of those equal rights, without
which it must be a reign ofinjuutice loan in
comparably great majority of her subjects.
We beg to acknowledge our obligation lo the
respected agent of the British and American
Steam Navigation Company for English papers,
brought by the Royal William, which fully sup
plied the deficiency occasioned by the detention
of our files in Wall street.
On the evening of the Coronation the places
of amusement were thrown open to the public.
The admission being regulated by tickets issued
to admit as many as each house would accom
modate. Mr. Bunn, ot Drury Lane, and Mr.
Macready, of C ovent Garden, received 4l)01 each
lor the loan of their theatres, and lo proviue suit
able entertainments.
It is also understood that 200/ each was paid
for the Haymarkct and English Opera. Mr.
Davadgc, the Jessee of the Surrey Theatre, re
ceived 150/; Mr. Ilonner, of Sadler’s Wells, 105/;
Mr. \ ales, of the Pa.’illion, Whitechapel road,
100/; and .Mr. Osbaidson, of the City of London
Theatre, Norton-folgatc, 100/ for a similar pur
pose. At Astley’sa grand spectacle was produced
got up expressly for the occasion, but the precise
sum paid by the government we do not find sta
ted. At \ auxhall, /50Z was to be paid for the
use of the gardens, which it is supposed would
accommodate nearly 37,000 persons.

MTTE CORONATION.
L'Verponl, July s—Before dawn on Thrnsday
i (June 28lh) the metropolis was alive to the in-
I teresting and impoitant, transactions of the day,
which was ushered in by the firing of a roj'al sa
lute of twenty.one guns, at a quarter before 4
P’clock; streams of persons were soon after
seen hastening to the point where was to be ex
hibited the gorgeous spectacle, and jovousness.
iiappincss, and loyally appeared to fill every
breast. At 5 o’clock, the doors of the Abbey
were opened, and many of those having the pri
vilege entered shortly after that time, and car
riages continued to arrive in a rapid succession
and set down lhei r company for several hours.
So anxious were parties to secure seals, that the
galleries erected in the open air. in the precincts
of the Abbey, were partially occupied as early
as half past four.
Troops and the police were brought out during
the morning to occupy the line of route. The
procession started from the New Palace a few
minutes after ten. The varied costumes of the
foreign ambassadors and the other individuals
who formed the procession, excited much admi
ration. The approach of Her Majesty’s state
carriage was the signal for the kindliest and
■ most affectionate demonstrations, and a shout,
deep, fervent, and enthusiastic, was sent up from
the immense assemblage; many were the fer
vent blessings uttered as Her Majesty gracefully
bent forward, acknowledged these and many
touching demonstrations of loyalty and affec.
tion ; and she was visibly affi-cted with these
marks of devo’ion and attachment. Through
out the whole line of route but. one desire seem
ed to actuate all-present—that, of best exhibit
ing their loyalty towards their Sovereign.
In about an hour after leaving Buckingham
Palace, her Majesty arrived at the west entrance
of the Abbey, and was received by the great offi
cers of state, the noblemen bearing the regalia,
and the bishops, when Her Majesty repaired to
her robing chamber. Her Majesty having been
robed, advanced up the nave into the choir, the
choristers singing the anthem, “ I was glad
when they said unto mo, we will go into the
house of the Lord.” When Her Majesty took
her seat in a chair before and below the throne,
the spectacle was truly magnificent. Then fol
lowed the recognition, Her Majesty’s first ob
lation, the Litany, and the remainder of the
service.
The sermon was proa died by the Bishop of
London, from Chron. xxxiv. v. 21. The Arch,
bishop of Canterbury then administered the oath,
to a transcript of which her Majesty affixed her
royal sign manual; after which the Archbishop
annointed and consecrated her Majesty. Then
followed the presentation of the spurs and sword;
the investing with the royal robe, and the deli,
very ot the orb; the investiture of the ring and
gloves, and the delivery of the sceptre and the
rod with the dove.
The Archbishop then placed the crown on her
Majesty’s head, and the peers and peeresses put
on their coronets, the bishops their caps, and the
kings-of-arms their crowns. The etfcct was mag
nificent in the extreme.
The shout which followed this part of the ce
remony was really tumultuous. After this fol
lowed the anthem, “The Queen shall rejoice in
thy strength, O Lord”; at the conclusion of which
the Archbishop presented her Majesty with the
Holy Bible, and then pronounced the benediction,
and the choir sang the Te Devm. Then follow,
ed the ceremony of the inthronization, the Arch
! bishop and Bishops and other peers lifted up her
I Majesty into the throne, when the peers did hom
; age. The solemnity of the coronation being
i thus ended, the Queen went down from the
throne to the altar, made her second oblation,
and returned to ber chair.
The Archbishop then read the prayers for the
whole estate of Christ’s Church militant here on
earth, &.C.; and the chorus, “Hallelujah ! for the
Lord of Omnipotent reigneth,” having been sune-,
her Majesty proceeded to the altar, accompanied
by tbe great ..ffioers of state, when the Archbish
op read the final prayers. The whole corona
tion office being thus performed, the Queen pro
ceeded, crowned, to King Edward’s Chapel,
where she delivered the sceptre wiih the dove to
the Archbishop, who laid it on the altar ihere.
His Grace then placed the orb in the Queen’s
left hand, and tlie procession returned m the
same state and order.
Her Majesty reached the palace at a quarter
to six o’clock, and, as she descended from the
carriage, the cheers which saluted her in the
morning were repeated with increased heartiness
and renewed vigor. She appeared as steady in
iicr tearing, notwithstanding the fatigues of the
dav, as when she set out in the morning, and rr
1 • i
cognized by her graceful acknowledgments the
cheers and gratulations of her subjects.
The night presented a scene ot indescribable
lustre from the illuminations throughout all the
principal squares and streets of the metropolis,
the inhabit ants vieing with each other in doing
honor to this interesting occasion. There was
also a brilliant display of fire-works in Hyde
park.
The following is an estimate of the value of
the different jewels contained in the late magni
ficent diadem, the “Q jeen’s rich Crown,” and
from which the p-csent one, manufactured by
Messrs. Runnell and Bridge, is composed, and
which her ?.lajesly wore on Thursday :
20 diamonds round the circle, each, £30,000
Two large remre diamonds, 2,000 Z each, 4,000
51 small diamonds placed at the angles of
the former, 100
Four crosses, each composed of 23 dia
monds, 12,000
Four large diamonds on the tops of the
crosses, 40,000 ;
12 diamonds contained in the fiem-de-lis, 10.000 j
IS smaller diamonds contained in the same, 2,000 |
Pearls, diamonds, tc., on the arches and
rrosses, 10,000 ;
111 diamonds on the mound, 500
2(1 diamonds cm the upper cross, 3,000 1
Two circles of pearls about the rim, 300 |
£lll,OOO
Notwithstanding such an uncommon mass of
jewelry, independent of the gold and velvet cap,
ermine, tc., this crown weighed only 19 ounces
10 pennyweights; it measured seven incites in
height fmm the gold circle to the upper cross,
»iyUid its diameter at tiic rim was fire inches. y*

The prospects of the harvest of this country
continue extremely doubtful, and much anxiety
is beginning to be felt in all parts of the country
as to the probable price of corn during the ensu
ing winter months. With the single exception
of the day of the coronation, we have now had
almost uninterrupted rains for the greater por
tion of a month; and the crops of wheat are de
scribed as generally beginning io suffer under re
dundance of moisture and deficiency of warmth;
although it is not yet too late with favorable
weather, for more than average crops of every
description of giain.

LINES,
BY THE REV. J. L. WO ART,
(Lost in the Pulaski.)
Elizabethtown, N. J .July 3, TS33,
p ev and Dear Krethern, —1 send you for publi
cation in the Recorder the following lines, which
werg composed by the reverend and much lament
ed J Lonng Woart, during his residence at the
Theological Seminary, Alexandria. The occa
sion of their being written was this. A lady of our
mutual acquaintance was singing an air jvltich we
both very much admired, and the wish was ex
pressed that it might be set to sacred words In a
few days after, when we again met at the same
place, brother Woart presented to ns the following
beautiful ones, which, had they been written muter
the presentiment of the mysterious providence
which awaited him, could not have been more
touching and appropriate.
1 had foigotten that these lines were in my pos
session, till in some moments of sad reflection qg
on the event, they recurred to my recollection, ami
in re-perusing them yon may naturally suppose 1
experienced no ordinary emotions. The peculiar
measure in which they are written was required
by the music. The sentiments, as you will per
| ceive, were suggested by th se memorable words
of our blessed Saviour to his terrified disciples,
“IT IS I.”
In notes of comfort falling,
“It is I
’.Mid the storm in mercy calling
“It is I;”
Our Saviour’s voice once spoke,
When the tempest loudly swelling.
Fearful death to all foretelling,
In anger broke.
Though raging billows toss thee,
“It is I;”
Though fearful lightnings cross thee,
“It is I’’
Can calmness yet restore ;
’Mid the billow’s wild commotion,
’Mid the fury of the ocean,
Hope gleams once more.
Should earthly comforts fail thee,
“It is I
Should sorrow’s dart assail thee,
“It is I”
Can heal the broken heart;
On my saving grace relying.
Joyful hope through all undying.
Shall ne’er depart.
O'er the troubled waves unmoved,
“!t is I
In the toilsome journey prov’d
“It is I”
Can fearful doubts dispel ;
Still the promise bow shall cheer thee,
Still thy Savour’s arm is near thee,
All shall be well.
The spirit still upholding,
“It is I;”
Thy joys of heav’n unfolding, f
“it is I”
Can endless bliss bestow ;
Crown’d with blessings death shall meet thee,
Messenger of peace to greet thee,
In love below.
’Mid the glorious above
. “It is I;”
Praises of Redeeming love,
“It is 1”
Will give thee peaceful rest;
In my courts thy home shall be,
’Mid happiness I’ll render thee
Forever blest!

ton counted this day.

James F. Smith, of Millcdgevil.'e, and advertised
for sale in this city by Mr. Plant. This book con
tains the names of the fortunate drawers in the

We do not know whether to be angry or to
laugh at the impudence of the whig presses, in re
gard to a resumption of specie payments by the
j banks. The Pennsylvania whig presses especially
i have the boldness to adopt as a rallying erv, “Hurd
j Money and Democracy .” Do they believe that the
| people of Pennsylvania arc so blind as not to seethe
I deception, and the assumption of men w hofind them,
j selves in a desperate condition, end resort to the
| most despicable means, in order to prop their fill
ing party ? How long since have the Pennsylvania
wings become hard money democrats, and foes to
rag money and shin -plasters ? We would not be
surprized, if, before the elections of October, the
samp whig paprrs would charge Jenton with being
to a metallic currency, and Calhoun to
an independent treasury, and claim for themselves
the credit of having always advocated a specie cur
rency, and opposed rng money and shin-plasters.
The impudence of those papers are indeed insuffer- -
able. To give a specimen of the language now
used by the whig presses, we copy the two follow
ing articles from the Philadelphia Hera’d, of the
26th inst. received by express mail on Sunday last:
“FACTS WHICH CANNOT PE DENIED.
"■lt is a fact, that we have been burdened for
the last fourteen or fifteen months, with an irredeem
able paper, and shinplaster currency.
*• It is a fact, that Governor Ritner. has issued a
proclamation requiring the Banks in this Sta e. to
resume the payment of their billsin Goldand Silver
coin, from and after the thirteenth dai j of August.
“ It is a fact, that hanks of this State, and seve
ral other States, met in Convention in this city, rn
the “3d of July, and resolved to resume specie
payments on the thirteenth, day o f August
“And it is a fact, that those who live to see that
diy,in that State, will then he able to got spec.e
for all the Bank notes they may then have, cn any
Bank in this State.
“ It fallouts, therefore, and we assert it ns a fact,
that Joseph liitner’s Proclamation has hertt the im
mediate cause of bringing about specie payments
by the Banks of this State.”
“THE RALLYING CRY.
“ We understand that the rallying cry in the in
terior of this Sir. te, of I hose who are opposed to a
shinplaster currency is, “ RITNER, HARD

“ The cry of the other party should bo, —
“POKIER; TREASURY NO IKS, AND THE

of the offence of biting off his wife’s tongue. The
manner in which he accomplished his purpose was
by strangling his wife with both bis hands, until her
tongue protruded from Iter mouth. He then seized
it in his own mouth and bit off a piece nearly an

MURDER.
The Louisville Herald states on the authority of
a gentleman direct from St. Louis, that Judge
Dougherty, of the city and County Court of St.
Louis, was murdered on Saturday, 14th instant,
about a mile below that city, by some person un
known. The judge was on his way from a bridge,
in the building of which he was concerned. He
was killed by a discharge of buck-shot, which
lodged in the side of his head, penetrating tiie i
brain. .The greatest excitement prevailed in the
city in consequence ofit. and a circular had been
issued calling on the citizens to aid in the search
for the murderer. A great many accordingly turned
out and were scouring the country in every direc

LATEST DATES FROM It AVR E.;J uX E CO
LIVERPOOL, June 22. Cotton. —There has
been a fair demand for cotton during the week, and
the market occasionally very firm, and full prices
obtained for most descriptions, hu* it does not close
in this stale; it has,during the last two days, been
rather heavy, notwithstanding the favorable ad
vices ns to money matters and business generally
in the United States. Price.-, of American close !
rather in favor of the buyer for most qualities, and I
we have made some slight alterations in the quota- I
tions in conformity with actual sales. Sales of i
the week, 29,710 hales, of which 2000 hales on spe
culation, nntl 1500 for export. Import 81,047 hales,

Thursday last vveie 3000 bags. Friday 4000. Satur
day 250'. Monday 3000, Tuesday 2500, and to day
3000. The demand since last week has been only
moderate, nnd notwithstanding the very large im
port, holders have maintained their prices except
in a few instances. Our quotations remain as last
week. The w eeks import amount to 88,008 bags
LIVERPOOL. June 30—Our last circular of
23d inst. would advise you that onr cotton market
continued dull with a downward 0 ndency, and that
common qualities could not be sold to any extent,
unless at a further reduction of id per lh. The
market has since remained in the same languid
state, and the limited business done has been at
the deeiine above mentioned, hut not exceeding
this, as holders pretty generally have not pressed
sales beyond fairly meeting the demand
Any attempts to sell largely in the present state 1
of the market, and considering the unprecedented
extent of the stock, must have produced a much
greater depression. Good and fine cotton remains
without change—but very little'doing. The sales
for the week ended last evening amounted to i 4,120
bales, of which 4900 were Upland, at 54 a 74 —4(’51)
