7.1 g -_ E NATI • • ' ~.~..~• M~: illumination did not display much breadth, but the interchange and brightness of the vai ieg:ited lamps produced a pleasing effect. It consisted of the initials G. R. surmounted with a star and crow n,,and the whole sin - roundel with wreaths of laurel. At the Post-011kt- there was nothing particidatly deservina of inotiee, except that the long entrance from Lombard stieet exhibit= `d a si-len.iid vista, which remind( d us .of the covered walks in Vanxliall-gardens. Arches of lamps were sespended 'throughout the whole of its extent, and the view was terntinated by a star of. vas riegated lamps. r In Cheapsitie there was little to detain • the attention of the spec- laturs. At wit• witolow we observed 11 well-executed transpartney of the Spread E.tgle Russian ;iv,' .-‘ll,trian arms, but fr9m.ifs minateiiess it was II hit to be overleof,c.l There was also an alle gorical transparency corner of king street, which excited w ine o b s ervation. 11 tt presented Atlas ,11...taiinig the glare upon his ample shoulders, vt hie the European 'quarter of it was prominently. displayed, as if illuminated. The houses of Messrs. Pellat and Green, anti of Mr. 11 . ..i1ey, the glass-manufacturers in St. Paul's Church-yard, were brilliantly.iiht initiated. The tailor had the word " Leipsig" in large letters, sur mounted with olive branches, emblematic of the prespects of peace . opening to Europe flout that great battle. On Ludgate-hill, the il lumination at Mr. Blade's merited particular observation. We Ina almost forgotten to mention the Hudson's Bay Muse, in Fenelinreli-strcer, which was lighted up. The only novelty it presented, were tridents - tin flied of lamps. fineness of the night enabled the crowds assembled in the streets to enjoy the giatifying spectacle without alloy ; and as far as we could perceive, good order and ttecornat geni-rally prevailed. As usual, however, the large space in trout of Somerset house al 'lowed the mob to assemble, and annoy the passengers with squibs and erikri.urA. La-t night the illuminations were repeated, and, if posPible, with more splendour. TUESDAY'S LONDON GA.:'ETTE.
