Irefterday being Lord-Mayor's day, a eonfiderable portion of curiofity was excited, and all the young and unemployed anticipated tae enjoyment of a brit pant fpeaacle. Clouds and rain, however, ufhered in the morning, and continucd their difmal and dreary reign until an advanced period of the day. The bofom of Father Thames was not, as ufual upon fuch occafions, covered with beauty; and, if we except the bridges, the vicinity of the River boafted but a thin attendance of (pea:ants. At half pall twelve o'clock, the old and new LORD Maims, Sheriffs, Aldermen, and City Officers, af fembled at Guildhall, from whence they went in proceffion in their (tate coaches to Blackfriat's- Bridge, where the city-barge was in waiting. The LORD MAYOR and Aldermen alighted, and went on board the barge, which commenced its voyage for Weilmintler Hall, attended by feveral of the Livery Companies in their barges, including the goldfmiths, drapers, filmongers, aationers, ecc. • It was near two o'clock b efore the proceainn reached the Exchequer Chamber, where his Lord flip was (worn into office before the Barons, accord lac:annual cuaom.

Next came the late Lord Mayor in his private coed' and (ix, accompanied by his fon Mr. PRICE, the water bailiff, and chaplain. The populace, in tenimony of their attachment to their late Chief Ma. giltrate..took the horfes from his carriage in Bridge. street, and drew it to Guildhall, amid ft a thunder of acklantatiotts. Next followed Aldermen SKINNER. and Coosa, the RECORDS', then the Aldermen who have not pared the chair, viz. Rowceorr l THOMAS SMITH, JO/111 SMITH, and Sir MATH SW ettoxiiate, the Lows Coalicst.toa, in his Rate coach, with the feat carried before him, Lord Esssasoaeoas, fe. oeral of the Judges and City Officers, Ste. At fume dißance in the rear followed the Earl of WARRING. roil in his coach. Guildhall was moil magnificcndy fitted np for the oceafion. In the centre of the great room, where dinner was ferved, was fulpended a large balloon, firmed of more than a thousand vari egated lamps. To it was attached a car containing two figures. one reprefentiog a Volunteer with the coldurs of the corps of whi t his Lordfhip is Colo tiel; the other a Naval Officer difplaying the Imperial Flag. The end of the Hall where the Loan MATOa prcfided, was ornamented with the royal initials G. R. and a moil brilliant Crown of variegated lamps.. The oppofite end difplayed the PaiNce's plonie, of fimilar materials; and the fides of the room were alto elegantly decorated with feftoons of the Cams defeription. The Dinner provided on the occafion, confined of every delicacy of the feafoa. The tables were un der the direftion of Mefrs. Birch and Angel. The decorations of the tables were very magnificent.— The benches were covered with erimfon baize. The Loan Marna and LADY MAYORAS{ fat in two Chairs of State, at the head of the table, the late LORD IDEFLADT biarot ass, and two Mifs Pewee, being on their left. The Spann Ambdrador's Lady, and two daughters, were on his right ; then the Ame rican, Daniih, and &wadi& Ambafadors, the Loan Cuaricsssoa, RICORDIR, &C. &C. The Hall was, as anal, crowded; but there were very few from the Court End of the Town. Several loyal and patriotic toafis were drank, and Dionuie lung Tome excellent tongs. At eight o'clock the Ladies withdrew to the rooms appropriated for tea, dancing, &c. At half pall nine o'clock _ _ The Ball was opened by the Spanifh Ambaffador and Mils Paaatmo, filler to the Lord Mayor's Chap lain. After a few minuets in each of the three rooms, the Company proceeded to Country Dances. which tomtit:toed to a late hour. In the rooms we noticed the following Law Officers, Ste.

DUBLIN, NOY. 4. The Commiffion, at which feveral important trials were expelled to take place, has been this day very unexpectedly terminated, without any bufinefs of con. fequence being brought before the Cnurt, and the trials of tuig.'ey and Stafford are put off to the 17th of December next, The Chief Baron, it is Paid, has intimated to the prifoners' Counfel, that their clients would Rand in no further need of their affittance. This meafure, it is (tippled, has been determined on by Government in confequenee of difcoveries made by Qligley, who it is alfo mentioned, has made terms fortis compa• uion Stafford. Mr. Tandy Rill remains in cuflody, notwithftand ing repeated rumours thefe two days pall that he had been liberated. Mr. Patton, merchant, now a [late prifoner in Kilmainham, has received an anfwer from Government, fimilar to that of Mr. Long," that he is to be imprifoned during the war." Never at any former period were the military pre parations of this country in fo formidable a Rate as at prefent ; in fhort, the whole ;Rand prefents fume what the appearance of one vaft military depot. Great numbers of people continue to be arrefled in the County of Kildare. The number of Rate psi. loners now in Kilmainham exceeds feventy, thofe in the Prevoft are near goo. Notwithllanding all thefe arrefts and imprifonments, the country ‘‘...s never more apparently tranquil. Our parade, in honour of the Anniverfary of Wil liam 111. to-day, was uncommonly fine. One would think the Citizens of Dublin one body, animated by the foul of loyalty. I am Pure there could not be lets than 6000 yeomanry under arms; a (mall num ber, at firlt view, compared with that which you have in London; but very great when our popula tion and our wealth are confidered. Difceveriesof high importance are foppofed to have been made to Government within the tail two days ; and it is believed that fome prifoners of a rank above the mere vulgar. may be expetted in this city in a (port time.—Dublin journal. Letters from Ennifcorthy mention a difcovery of great moment to the fecurity of that neighbourhood having been made on Saturday laf. Sufpicions hay. ing been excited by the conftant meetings of a certain defcription of perfons at a houfe in that town, a pro per force furrounded it on Saturday, and found nine of the Cavan Militia and about a dozen of the molt fufpcded characters in the town engaged in deep de liberation : thcir objth was clearly afcertained to be treafonable by various coincident circumftances, and they were accordingly committed to the gaol of Wexford. The nine militiamen had been lately re- ' from among . the lower orders of the county of Wexford; and it is underflood no other perfon of 'the Cavan regiment was at all implicated.—(/lid.) 1 1 A perfon of Come property was on Wednefday brought up from the neighbourhood of Baltimore Euhee, and committed to Kilmainham gaol ; . as was alfo a perfon fent up by Captain Gaiserrm, of the Millicent Legion. PRIVATE LETTER. Duette, Nov. 4.—Though I have no other news, I cannot deny rnyfelf the pleafure of communi cating to you the proud array of armed Loyalty which our fireets exhibited this day, in celebration of the 4th of November. I have witneffed the proudeft day of the old Volunteer; I have ken the depar ture of Lord Canals', when the Marquis Coan waLLis's pretence gave a double motive to loyal ex preffion ; I law, on the 4th of November following, when there was experience of Lord CORNWALLIS'S wifdom, his profound policy, his magnanimous air. toe; when the difeordant fpirits of a divided, diffen tious nation, were blended and feftened down into a common love and veneration for that great and good man—all this I law ; but never did I fee loch alt as that I taw to day. I cannot tell you the numbe r of the yeomanry, who were under arms, for I law no official return; but I can tell you, that in dole I order and double file, the infantry alone covered more than a mile and a quarter of ground; that is, from College-Green to the upper end of Dawfon greet, and all round St. Stephen sCreen ; while the cavalry lined, in dole order, Dame-greet and College ' Green. After the regulars had fired three vollies round the liatue of King WILLIAM in College-Green, they quitted the ground, and were replaced by the Yeomanry, who fired alto; and to the fire of mu& quetry, was added that of two Yeoman Artillery Corps, the Cagle Artillery, and the Linen Hall, both excellent. The windows of the honks from the bottom to the top; nay, the very roofs, where prac ticable, were filled with fpeaators, all animated with loyal empathy the greets, too, were crowd ed beyond example; and, fatisfied am I, that here, alto, loyalty was moll predominant, for Difaffeition would have fickened at the fight : the would have retired from the Beene, and bewailed her blafted hopes is folicitude and obleurity. While I have faintly defcribed the throng of armed loyalty, and the referve of loyalty unarmed. I lhould not omit, that which has always, in this City, been an unerring proof of the affection of the ariftoeracy to the perfon and government of the Vicaaor : We have two days on which the Lewes are the Barometers, if I may fo exprefs it, of the opinion of the landed intereft : his MAJISTY'S birth day, and the 4th of November, ((the birth day of WILLIAM III.) On the fir% dillgte to the deputy will not prevent the Loyal Gentleman from paying a tribute of repel to his Sovereign; but an the latter, this cosftraint of duty does not operate, and if the V;csaot be not loved, his Lome will be thin, and his Rate limited. Now, I do attire you that I never beheld inch a Les and fuch a Rate procedlon as this day; many Noblemen and Gentlemen came from different and slit tent partsof the calintry.for the mere purport of expref fing theirs Remo( Lord HIIIOWIC B. and attachment to his Government. The arriages of the Nobility and Gentry emended from the Celle to the Green. The like was never fain in this city, on any occafton. Indeed he merits the compliment. Never was there a man who has better earned or more largely pof fetes that pun. rational, and virtuous popularity, which, while it grugthens the throw, honours the Peofle• I have only to add. and with mach fimisfaaion. that the %emelt accident did not oecor. to make an individual regret a day io asfrisious to the public welfare. WOODBRIDGE, NOV. 9. On account of the advanced period of the feafon, and the badnefs cl the weather, the troops in this neighbourhood are beginning to break up the ground of their encampments, notwithitanding the boafted threats of mvalion held out by the Corfican Conful. The 3d Royal Lancathire Militia, commanded by Sir H. P. HOG H TON, Bart. which were encamped on the coal dole to Landgaard Fort, yefterday (truck their tents, and marched to the new barracks at Ipfwich. It is fuppofed, that of the three Regiments encamp ed at Bromfwell, the 24th infantry will proceed in a few days for Norwich, and the South Lincoln and North York Militia for Ipfwich, where they are to be quartered for the winter. Both the barracks here and at Ipfwich are getting on very fall ; nearly two thonland men are employed daily on each ; they alfo work on Sundays, for which day the Artificers, both Military and Civil, receive double pay. CORONERS Noy EST.—Yeflerdayat one o'clock, Mr. HODGsnm, one of the Coroners for Middlefer, proceed ed to Hornfey Sluice Houle, for the purpote of hold. ing an inqueft on the remains of the late Mr. DEWY. The following Gentlemen being ambled and (worn on the inquell, viz. ME. I.IOONSON, Foreman, Mr. PITHER, Mr. 1.. DAVIS, Mr. GROVES, Mr. J. KEll LE, Mr. IV. BROUGHTON, Mr. TUOMPSON, Mr. J. DOWER, Mr. J.WittOMT, Mr.- WALTER, Mr. FRTATT, Mr. CHALIIZRI, Mr. HOWARD, Mr. LACIE, Mr.Bvualrr, and Mr. WILMOT. They proceeded to the room where the dead body lay, for the purpofe of examination, and after tom,: time returned to their Jury Room. The only per fon prefent who could give any teLlimony as to the circumliances of the fetal accident, was Mr. Surgeon Leese, of Copthall•court, Throgrnorton-greet. This Gentleman depofed, that he is Surgeon to the Bth Regiment of Loyal London Volunteers, cr,mmanded by Colonel CANNING, in which the deceafed was a private in the Light Infantry Company ; that on Wednefday, the 2d inftant, the Regiment went out to Hornfey Fields to eremite on a fkirmilhing party, in which one portion of the Regiment was oppofed to the other. It was ordered that the Light Corn pany fhould take poll in ambufh ; after tome time, the oppofed divifions became very clofely engaged. A fhort time before ten in the morning, he heard the word Doaor I Doaor ! vcciferated through the ranks, and being on horfehack, he rode as fall as he could towards the place from whence the call came, where he found the deceafed lying on his fide on the ground, furrounded by a number of other Volun• teens ; and being told that he was wounded by a !hot in the fide, be examined the part, and found an ex tenfive %sound, which bled much; he immediately applied fome dry lint to the wound, which from its aspeß he thought dangerous, and ordered the de ceafed to be carried to the next houfe, which happen ed be the Sluice Haute. Thither he attended the deceafed, bled him, and ordered him to be put to bed, and immediately fent for Sir Wtxxram BLIZ. AID from town, to confult him on the cafe of the de ceafed. The eceafed had vomited blood when be firft lay wounded on the ground, and afterwards threw up blood from his lungs, and bled much from his wound. About five in the evening, be was lei:- ed with fymptoms of inflammatory fever, to mitigate which he was frequently blooded, and his fiver much abated. The wimefs and Sir W. BLIZAID fe duloully attended the deceafed. Witnefs fat up with him for feveral nights the whole night ; attended him betides thrice fome days, and not lefs thatttevior any day. In fadt, be gave up his whole attention to him. Every thing that could be done, furgically or medi cally, had been done, he was codified, to Pave the pa tient's life. Witnefs departed from him on Monday evening between nine and ten o'clock; he was then in a dying Rate, and he underlined that he died about twelve the fame night. Yefterelay, the witnefs, in the pretence of Sir WIL LIAM &mean, and another Surgeon, attended at the define of the friends of the deceafed, and opened his body, for the better afcertaiaing the caufe of his death. He found, on opening, that the &Mance which had made the wound, . bad fraanred the feventh rib in his right Me, and that the fraßnred rib beaten in bad wounded the pleura, and much injured the right fide of the limp, and the upper part of the Romach. He found, in the cavity of the break, a quantity of estravatated blood. The fabßance which canted the wound, and fraaured the rib, did not enter the cavity, but took a direaion upwards to wards the (boulder blade and arm-pit. It lacerated the nerves and larger blood-veffels near the latter, and the former he found fraaured in two places, through its fubßance ; in faa, it was blown to pieces. Under the (boulder blade, he found a piece of paper, which he conceived to be that which had contained a cartridge. This was the only extraneous tobßance he found, and he conceived it to be the fubflance which had infliaed the wounds and fraeures as Rat ed. He knew nothing of the name of the perfon who fired the flat ; and the deceafed, previoufly to his death, had frequently declared be (Wald not know the perfon, as he had only obferved a flight (bade of his face at the time of firing. The deceafed was laid hold of, as taken prifoner at the moment, by a per (on whole face be knew, and inftantly the Owe was fired by tome other. Witnefs lays, that neither the deceafed nor any other perk)°, ever imagined that the flat was fired with a wilful intent to do any injury, but was merely an accident in the ardour and hurry of the moment. Colonel Cassino then tendered his tetlimony ; but, as he could fay nothing of his own knowledge touching the retire fee, be was not (worn. He de dared, however, his fulleß convietion that the unfor tunate event refulted merely from accident; that he knew the deceafed, and believed he bad not an ene my in the world ; and that, on the morning when the coupe 'trembled to march, not one of them, except four of the *ricers,' knew where they were to go, what they were to do. or how they &add be Rationed.

EiNGULAR CASE. TCbD N. GUTTERIDCE.—.-ID this Care an applies lion was made to the Court on the part of the plain tiff, who is one of the Solicitors in Chancery, praying that an order of the Court granted on the 18th of February laii at the request of the defendant, might be dircharged with coils. Mr. RON!! LLY, Counfel for the defendant, Rated the particulars of this cafe, which are femewhat re markable. About a cextury ago a bill had been filed in the Court of Ch•acery, purfuant to a will which a certain perfon, !ladled of eddies real and perfonal, had made, direttmg the rents of there elates to be appled by the Court, to the liquidation of the debts with which they were encumbered. A receiver of the rents was accordingly appointed, and the money for fome time paid into Court, but by fome accident the Winds was in a Ihort time neglefted and no accounts rendered nor payments made to the Court by the re ceiver. In this manner the htifinefs went on f r nearly a century, till in 1799, Mr. Todd, the plain tiff, obtained the buftnefs from the hands of a Mr. Hutton. Mr. Todd applied to the Mailer in Chan cery for a power to receive the rents of the elate, (Wing the concurrence and authority of both the parties, though, in fad, there were no parties exiling. Upon this reprefentation the authority which he re quired was granted him. Having fucceeded thus far, he thought it would he a good thing to get per feffion of fome of the money that had been paid into Court, and, in fad, did compafs his views by repre ting that the money would be properly applied to the improvement of the elate. During all this time Mr. Todd acted as the owner of the lands, and ren dered no account. This appeared from his contenting to an Inclofure Bill in the capacity of an owner, and from the letters which he bad been accuftomed to fend to the tenants, in one of which he complained that they had not fent him fome turkeys and bacon, which he expetled,and threatened to remember this when the rents became due. Mr. Gutteridge, the defendant, porkficd part of this eflate, at the yearly rent of 601. i but Mr. Todd thinking this not equal to its value, demanded tool. per annum, which, if the defendant agreed to, he, Mr. Todd, promifed to give him a kale of the pro perty for 21 years. Mr. Gutteridge refaced the con ditions, upon the grounds that the plaintiff had no right either to raile the rent or grant a leafe. The plaintiff then offered tool. to the defendant, if he would quietly quit the premifes, but, upon meeting with a refufal, he fent , him notice to remove. The defendant then brought the matter before the Court, which immediately granted an order, reltraining the plaintiff from proceeding to as cid:threat of the de. fendant, who agreed to pay the rent which the Hall ter fhould think was a competent value. It was to difcharge this order. with colts, that the prang ap• plication was made. The Loan CM•KCILLOt commented upon the fingularity of this cafe, and was aßonifted that fuch a thing Would have happened in a Britilh Court of Jultice as the negle& of this property. He adverted to the conduit of thole who, in the capacity of re• ceivers, had all along aged as owners, and (applied their tables from the radii, and ham of the tenants: concluding with this refolotion, to refit(' the prayer of Mr. Todd's application for the colts, till the more ferious points of the cafe were invefligated. Es however allowed Mr. Gutteridge the colts of his or. der out of the money in Court bebanging to the elate, upon the grounds that he had &dad with great pro priety in bringing this arangt affair to the notice of the Court.
