London, Aug. 1 1. -Edward VII, Rs •
I., by the grace of God, of the Milt-
ed Kingdom of Great. Britain and
'Ireland, and of the British Dominions
beyond the Seas, Delendea of the
Faith, Emperor of India, was Satur-
day. crowned without hitch: • or
harm, and then London noisily cele-
brated the event, for which the, werld
has waited, as . perhaps, it never
waited any other coronation.
-
in all respects the celebration teas
impressive, and it was carried out
with a perfection of detail and lack
of accidents that has previously
marked such displays. The pride of
Empire, which marked Queen .Vic-
toria's jubilee, was lacking, and in
its stead there pervaded among all
classes a keen recollection, that only
six 'weeks ago the King lay in clan- ,
ger of death. This fact produced
thankfulness and genuine sympathy
for the man, rather than adulation.
for the King and this feeling
voiced by the Archbishop of Canter-
bury, when lie inserted in one of the
coronation prayers the words " For
whose recovery we now give The
heartfelt thanks," This did not pre...,
vent the public from. voicing ith ap-
preciation of each military 'display as
the short procession gave to them., a .
chance to see.
The absence of special diplomatic
embassies deprived the coronation in
a large measure of its international
character, although ,Prince and Prin-
cess liem.y were in the choir; =nye..
princesses in the royal box, and the
regular embassies were fully erepre-
RCM ted. The roll of the:British .Em-
pire, however, . might have -been
ed in the Abbey. The Indian princes,
in splendid costumes, were present,
Lind all of the self-governing .com-
monwealths and nearly all of the
crown colonies were •represented• by
Premiers; Ministers or Governor,
Sir Wilfrid Laurier, in picturesque'•
blue mantle and decorations of gold,
sat with Premiers Barton and Sed-
don in the choir -.near Ambassador •
and Mrs. Choate, and close at hated
were Messrs. Fielding, Paterson,
Mu-
lnck, Borden, Ross and other Cana-
dian !Ministers and provincial. Prem-
iers. Lady Laurier was riehly dress-
ed in white, and there •Ivere many
other Canadian woman in .prominent
seats. 'Phere have been grand ,pag-
eants at Westmioster Abbeehfor gen-
eration after generation, but there
never has been a spectacle so unique
in representative and -compreheneive,
diameter as this Imperialcoronation
with a cloud of witnesses from the
remotest bounds of the Empire. •The•
Americans were less favored than the
Canadians, who had at leatit'seventy
seats, yet there were fully thirty :hi
the Abbey. ,
En.t•I Roberts, commander-hachief
of the forces, was once more the hero
of the hour, and, next to the King
himself, received the heartiest Wel-
come of the assembled crowds. hhIele
comes good old Bobs'," was invari-
ably the signalfor all the . reserve
power of British lungs to be brought
into play. Lord Roberts rode alone,
anx constantly bowedand smiled tie-
knowledgments of his greeting. Lord
itchener was not so easily reeog-
'Axed, but he was seen as he rode
with General Sir Alfred Gaselee and -
Admiral Sir Edward Hobart Sey-
mour, and was the crowd's next fav-
orite.
