The enlivening beams of the sun seem to have awak ened in our visitore a more gay, sociable, and har monious disposition. than prevailed some weeks ago; or.

The Applicant, who has been in the office' for several years, produced the Royal Charter. by which he said it would appear it had bees customary, for 700 years. to grant licenses for the exercise of such in struments. Alderman Sults was not certain how far this privilege could be enforced in the City ; but said, if such really existed, he should advise him to proceed in the regular manner, by summoning the parties before the Court, or in such other mode as might be deemed proper to pursue.
