After addresses from Colonel WILLI Ams, Mr. F.GzeroN 5311171, and Mr. RUSOTON, the whole of it multitude peaceably dispersed, and in !ass than .an hour the town was as quiet as if nothing (tithe kind had occurred. The mottoes on the various flags were so numerous that it is impossible to notice the whole of them. In the procession was a figure representing Majoichi, on a gallows, with a Green lag in his fiend, in which were the words—" The • Wages of Sin I" It having beep apprehended that some individuals intended to illuminate on the occasion, the MAyon • !It Saturday issued a . placard, requesting that " no • ,:l ruination whatever should take place," as it might bad to an infraction of the peace of i dle town; and ! , e suppose this notice had the desired effect, for we Id•ye not heard Ct any houses having been lighted . . . . . . . up ; &lit a display of fire-works in Mosslakt-fields closed the festivities of the day. a very happy effect. Fireworks were Also exhibited in different quarters of thh town. • GREENOCK.—This town, followini the eiariiifle of Glasgow, was almost universally illuniinated. No ' Magisterial edict, either of conintind or forbiddance, was issued--:-the Public were left to act as they thought fit—but a general iinderstindlng prevailitig throughout the earlier part of the day, that some thing of the kind would take plate, the lighting up was nearly unanimous ; and every one seemed to en joy it heartily. EAGL ESIIAM.-- This 'place WiS beautifully inmi nated, and a large fire kindled at the Cross, when the inhabitants paraded round the Village with an in strumental band, and returned to the Cias . ' .where a few appropriate toasts we r e d ran k, and the band continued playing a number of favourite airs. The whole ended about twelve o'clock at night in peace and quietness, and not a pane of glass was broken. Friday evening, there were illuMinations at Leith' . and Newhaven. At Leith, the mob brought one of the landwaiters' centry-boxes from the Quay to the front of the Town-house, Placing a tar barrel inside, made a bonfire of it. Some outrages on the houses of those who did not illuminate were also committed. The villages of Prestonpans and Preston were illu minated in honour of the Queen's acquittal. AIRDRIE.—This town never exhibited a scene so replete with heartfelt joy, as on the receipt of the joyful intelligence that her Majesty had, after a se vere trial, triumphed over her enemies. Bonfires, firing of small arms, and everything that could de monstrate their feelings, were evinced on the occasion. Tuesday se'nnight, the colours of the different In.- corporations in Arbroath were suspended from the windows of their respective Deacons, while the flags of the vessels in the harbour were hoisted, in testi mony of rejoicing on account of the fate of the Bill of Pains and Penalties. CoNoLzrox.—On the arrival at Congletoh, sit Cheshire, of the glorious news of the termination of the trial of our most gracious Queen; a number of the loyal-rpirited Gentlemen; wishing to gladden the hearts of their fellow-townsmen by having a merry peal rang, applied, but in vain, to the Church warden, for the loan of the keys of the steeple.— As, however, it is a custom there to toll a bell at half-past ten o'clock every evening, a great con course of the most respectable inhabitants collected before that hour at the door of the steeple, and fairly got possession. The bells were then rung—not to be sure in die xnanner of treble-bobs, but so as to make a noise that was' heard far and wide, until twelve o'cleck, when they went quietly home, after giving the Churchwarden, and an Attorney who counselled him to keep the keys, a few huzzas in honour of the Queen. In consequence of a numerous and respectable Re quisition to the Mayor, a Meeting of the Inhabitants was called, when an Address of Congratulation to her Majesty was agreed on, and a general illumina tion was fixed for the 27th instant, when these will be bonfires and roasting of sheep in honour of the glori ous triumph of justice over cruelty and oppression. Moxmourn.—The enthusiastic joy with which the news of the rejection of the Bill against her Majesty was received in this town, on Saturday se'llni . t;ht, was succeeded by a geno.al illumination on the Wednes day following. Our victories by sea or Land were never more cordially hailed. At the close of the evening, the Town Hall beamed forth .in the majesty of day; which was further brightened by the brilliancy Of the extended front of the King's Head Inn, and the hou.es in line with it, at the west end of the Hall, and which was again met, in front, by the generous spirit of every inhabitant in Agincourt-square ; but this effect was overpowered by the bonfire light in the square, made up with faggots, sugar hogsheads, and tar-barrels, to a considerable height, and, when set on fire, dispensed a blaze rising to the summit of the building, %Mich was cheered by long and loud huzzas, while the bells of the Church added their merry peals to the acclamations of the surrounding multitude. Wednesday seennight, Montrose was generally il luminated on the occasion of the termination of the proceedings against the Queen. There were also bon fires, fireworks, and other demonstrations of popular l rejoicing. Brechin was liken ise brilliantly illumi nated on the same evening. Many very appropriate devices were exhibited. COVENT RT.—Tuesday se'nnight having been chosen for the illumination of this ancient and loyal City, all classes vied with each other in demonstrating their joy at the signal defeat of her Majesty's ene mies. In the morning, one ox and fifty-one sheep were toasted and distributed aniongst the populace ; in the evening, most of the hpeses were brilliantly lighted up, and those Jacobils who refused to join in the general triumph, were tiermitted to enjoy their gloom in undisturbed silenc Processions, with white ribbons, paraded the streets, accompanied by music and banners, and carrying two Green Bags, the one full of filth, representing the materials col lected by the Milan Commission ; the other, turned inside out, emblematic of its exposure and destruc, tion. These were afterwards kicked about the town and then consigned to the flames at Coventry Cross, amidst the most deafening groans, and with every mark of popular indignation.—Lord Hood, on en tering the town in the evenin, was met by the po pulace, who took the horses f rom his carriage, and drew him into the town, surrounded by all the re spectable inhabitants, vying with each other in dis playing their approval of his Lordship's conduct in opposing the iniquitous Bill of Pains and Penalties. His Lordship afterwards attended a Ball given at Drapers' Hall, in honour of her Majesty's triumph, and was then likewise most rapturously greeted.

IRELAND. DUBLIN, Nov. 21.—A splendid and very general illumination took place, last night, throughout the City of Dublin and suburbs. The People, anxious to testify their participation in the triumph of their persecuted Queen, commenced lighting their win dows at an unusually early hour, and befere seven o'clock (no particular hour had been fixed upon for the commencement) there was scarcely a square, street, lane, or alley, that was not brilliantly lighted. The line of quays, the finest in Europe, viewed from Essex-bridge, presented, as far as the eye could reach, up and down the river, " One unbroken line of splendour." The vessels, which were numerous in the river, ex tending from Carlisle-bridge to the extremity of the North-wall, had all of them lights at their mast heads and yard-arms, which had a novel and sin gular appearance, as if an innumerable quantity of stars, of various magnitudes, had studded the 44 o'erhanging firmament."

Monday, his MAJESTY'S Stag hounds were taken to Stoke Common, where a remarkably fine deer was turned out for the day's diversion. The sportsmen assembled on the occasion were extremely numerous. The deer at starting 'hewed great sport, taking at full speed through the enclosures, making towards Slough, and afterwards for Datchett, where he crossed the Thames, then took to the right, and again crossed the Thames; and in consequence of the deer recrossing the Thames in such a short time, there were sportsmen on both sides of the river, which had a delightful effect. The deer proceeded up a lane at the back of Eton College, running with great swiftness into the yard of Mr. Caritas, a pork-butcher, and actually proceeded into the house, ranging in several parts of it ; he at last got into the street again, taking to the left towards Eton and Windsor Bridge, the pork-butcher's dog pursuing him. The deer, passe ing along the Brid;c, proceeded through Thames-street, Wind sor, passing the Swan Inn, and ascended the Il.indred Steps It ad ing to the King's Castle, the pork-butcher's dog still pursui , g him up the steps. The deer had nearly reached the top step, when the man who is employed to sweep the steps happening to be thete, turned him down again. On reaching the bottom of the steps he started again with great swiftness through Thames street, along the Bridge, into Eton again, and entered the shop of Mr. Lire, an orange-merchant, making his way in different parts of the house : he got into the kitchen, where he remained for some time. A great crowd collected round the house in con. sequence. On his leaving the kitchen, he made a start over the gardens at the back. At this time the young Gentlemen of Eton had left College ; they joined In the chace, with many hundreds of all descriptions of persons. This excellent deer, after having afforded a most charming day's sport, was at last taken in attempting to leap over the high wall between Eton College and the Fifteen-arch Bridge. It has been noticed, generally, that this deer, when he has been hunted, makes for the water, particularly when closely pursued. He crossed the Thames three times on Monday. It has been usual for the Members for the Borough of Beverley to give a bull to the town, for the pur. pose of being baited. An applienjon was made to G. L. Fox, Esq. by the Electors, to comply with the usual custom, vt hich that Gentleman, much to his honour, refused. In his reply, he said, that anything else which lay in his power, either to promote their amusement or their interest in any way, he would listen to with pleasure; but that he had the honour and credit of the Borough too much at heart to pro. mote so barbarous a diversion. An unfortunate accident happened on 'Wednesday at one of the new buildings opposite Conduit -street, owing to the giving way of a scaffold, by which a master bricklayer and two of his men were preci. pitated from a great height. The men were conveyed to the Middlesex Hospital, where every attention has been paid to them, but one died yesterday : the other is likely to recover. The master, though much bruised, is also in a state of convalescence, Tuesday se'nnight, Charles Morgan, of the Liberty and Property, of Whitby, was found dead on board that ship in Shields harbour. The vessel had been smoaked the day preceding with charcoal, and the deceased had, it appears, gone on board during thg night, and been suffocated. Sunday night, thc house of the Earl a FA R niAst, in Seymour. place, Curzon -street, May-fair, was robe bed of prtiperty to a considerable monist. The lains contrived to enter by the back way, through the harness-room, by means of picklock keys; they pra ceeded to the parlour, and carried off a package of valuable silver plate, which was about to be sent into the country, As the turnkey at Marlborough-street Police O. face was conducting five prisoners from that Office t Newgate, yesterday afternoon, he was attacked la Holborn, by a determined gang of pickpockets and other ruffians, who beat him dreadfully ; and not ' withstanding it was still daylight, in a great public thoroughfare, and the prisoners were handcuffed iu pairs, and chained altogether, they succeeded in rescuing the whole of them. .
