its multitude not less brilliant, and perhaps nn Public Meeting in the world could exhibit more opulence in combination with more beauty. Something of the same arrangement occurs in all the celebrations of this day, but we write as well to those by whom they have not been seen as to those who are familiar with them, and we describe for the majority. About five o'clock the Gentlemen of the, Committee who received the admission tickets at the door; announced the Duke of York. His Royal Higliness was re ceived with much applause in his passage through the Hall:, he was in his Field Marshal's uniform. Lord Liverpool was soon after ushered in with Ai•r. Vansittart, and received with great interest. Lords Sidmouth, Harrowhy, Westmorland, and. bithnrst, came soon after ; Lord Castlereagh Avas applauded, and the coming of the Duke of Wellington was known, by long and distant ac clamation, Which accumulated till he had passed through the Hall. A go-at number of Ladies, handsomely dressed, passed along occasionally to the reception room, which by six o'clock was crowded with a striking collection of Persons of public eminence. With the exception of the Lord-Chancellor and the other Chancery JUdges, all the Heads of the Lave were present— 'rho Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench, the Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, the Chief Baron, the Judge of the. Admiralty, Justices Holreyd, Park, and Best, Serjeants Blos , ett, Firth, Cross, and Doyley. There were besides a Considerable number of public characters, civil and military, the Right Hon. C. Arbuthnot, Messrs. Lushington and Clive, Sir H. Torreas l Sir C. Halkett, Sir G. Warrender, Mr. Peel, &c. The Lady Mayoress, in a Court dress, received 'her visitors under a canopy, and she did the ho nours very gracefully. About hilt-past six dinner was announced ; the men in armour, preceded by trumpets sounding, made their entrance, and took their places, one in the centre, and the others in the angles behind the Lord Mayor's chair ; and soon after the Duke of York, handing the Lady Mayoress, led the procession round the hall to , he tahle. The arrangements for the dinner had been mile with great dexterity, and all confusion was avoided ; the tables were covered with every thing that could constitute a sumptuous entertain ment ; Champagne and pine apples were in abuts dance, and civic feasting was fully sustained in its reputation ; for those guests who could not fiud room in the Great Hall, the King's Bench Court was laid out in tables. At eight o'clock grace was said, and the toast of 4 ' The King " given by the Lord Mayor. This was followed by God save the King, played by the Orchestra. The Lord Mayor then gave the Duke of York's health, prefaced by a brief . but neat eulogium ant the skill and discipline by which lie had 'trained the British Army to unexampled triumph.— The Duke returned thanks in a few words.— The speeches throughout the day- were in general extremely succinct. Guildhall is ob viously unsuitable for public speaking from i:s height, its length, and as the result of both, the waste of sound. The natural defect was yester day increased by !be multitude, and in the miogled and perpetual murmur no voice could be heard a dozen yardeifrom the speaker. The usual toa'ts of the Army and Navy, &c. were given io succes• slots, and drank with thsee times three. The Duke of Wellington's name was announced by the Lord Mayor, and received with immense applause. The Deke returned (batiks in a few winds. Lord Liverpool's health was next drank, and his Lord ship proposed the health of the Lord Mayor iu a neat speech, expressive of his personal gratifica tion, and the pleasure whirls he was convinced he was giving to that Meeting, in proposing the name of a citizen so capable of doing the arduous i!u yof his office. The Lord Mayor proposed the health of Lord Sithnouth ; the Ladies were., by this time retiring with the Letly Mayoress, and his Lordship; in returning the toast, entered more largely into his subject than it appeared the eti quette to have indulged in before. He expressed " his great satisfaction at receiving a mark of such attention from such an assembly; lie pro fessed to believe, however, that they were ap plauding only the common principles of the great hotly of well-disposed anti sober-minded English oleo, and he felt it rather his fortune than his merit that he stood in a situation to enforce its any degree those principles, without which nei thsr they nor he could have the privilege of a Constitution, the most glorious of all others, and he would believe the most stable." He thee pro posed the health of the late Lord Mayor, " as a Man who, in a trying situation, had exhibited ass honourable intrepidity, a manly good sense, apd a steady determination to do his duty." Alderman ATK Ns ruse up its the midst of uni versal clapping of hands, and returned thanks.-- He disclaimed all personal merit for the course which he had adopted, for it was tire com se teoftited out by the law of the land ; he erprOly disclaimed all merit for its success, for that was due to the zealous co-operation of his brother Magistrates. He had found the Civic Body sound, vigorous, and active; and if he had set himself steadily and at once against the insolence, the folly, and the guilt of vulgar faction, •it was beestise he felt it to be the duty of his situation, and because he knew that he team.( be sustained it' exercise by the manly loyalty of the Ma gistracy. It was obvious that there were distur bers raking up every means of mischief in the commenity, root it was equally ohs ions that they tains( he pet down, or left to involve the roils of the Constitution. When they had placed them selves within the exertion of legal punishment, he had assistediu honouring the laws of his coon ity, awl he felt confidtnt that, in disturbances kindled by the base passions of political inceu diaries, the speediest extinction was the safest, the easiest, and the most befitting the spirit of the British Constitution. Those who made a practice of insulting the law, Must learn it •to be aworog their first necessitiee to obey the law. We do not profess to give this animated speech %void tor word, for the tumult of apPlause was ryo loud for distinctness, but the substance is and delivered with energy and manliness.— The effect was extremely popular. Loral Castle r.:agh brit fly proposed the health of the Foreign mbassadors present. The Ambassadors of Spaitt and France, the Doke of San Carlos, and tee (MUM Limpur Manbourg rose, and howed their thanks. The health of Lord Bathurst, and leveret other per 50115 of distinction, was drank till about 11 o'clock, when the tables thinned, and the younger part of the company gathered to the ball r yoom. The romps of the day were well sustained, but its politics added highly to the attraction of the entertainment. Many years have passed since so many :nen of public:- eminence have honoured a City festivity. The Lord Mayor's table presented a stately, and from the variety and richness of their costumes, a rich and picturesque assemblage. On the left of the Lord Mayor sat the Judges, and other heads of the Bar, whom we have already mentioned, in their robes ; the Aldermen, who sat at the opposite side of the table, %Vete also in their robes. On his right the table was filled in the following order :—The late Lord Mayor, the Duke of San Carlos, the Count Latour Mauboarg, Lord Ilarrowby, the Duke of Wellington, Lord Liverpool, Lord West moreland, Lord Bathurst, Lord Sidmonth, Lord Castlereagh, Mr. Vansittart, Mr. W. Pole, Lord Lowther, and Mr. Lusbington ; all, with the exception of Lotd Sidmouth, in the Windsor uni form. As a mete indulgence to the eye, this pro fusion of scarlet and gold embroidery was height ened by a perpetual line of the ladies, who had left the tables below to walk round those on the hustings. The day, of romance has died, but there was much of old magnifience in the adjuncts of this superb feast. On one aide of the hall stood pursuivant covered with his escnteheotted coat, and under an emblazoned standard. At theaend, the three knights, towered in the splendours of burnished mail. The healths were announced by trumpets, answered by trumpets troin the extre mity of the tables, and all this was seen and done in a vast gothic hall, surrounded with monuments of men the first in glory in their day, and among the first in memory until the name of Enos.nd shall, like them, have gone down to the grave. FOR THE SUN. CIVIC FETE. " The funeral baled meats . " Did coldly furnish forth the roarriage supper HAMLET. MR. EDITOR-4 observe with concern, that you seldom make my mouth water with luscious de scriptions of the various delicious viands, and in vigorating Wines and Liqueurs, that adorn our— I tneao, the festive boards of this great City, or of its courtly Sister, Westminster.' Lord, Sir ! you ought to take example from your neighbour The Chronicle—l mean when the Whigs were in office. Why, Sir, its columns actually smelt of turtle and Madeira, delightful to the olfactory nerves of me and many others,wbo, not being able to make a fourth on the crowd ed couches of the Patriots, who were content to lie three in a bed for the good of their country, were forced to feast at second hand, adding those luxuries to our customary ones of casting passing glances at the cookshop windows, where rumps and sirloins smoked most invitingly, though we (11(1 not always accept the invitation. O ! Mr. Editor, I wish we could have a re print of the Beauties (f the Morning Chronicle, (faring that year, month, week, day, hour, mi nute, and second of Whiggical Office—a short time indeed—but the true " Tempos edax re rum" of the Poet. In fact, Sir, the happiness of a life concentrated in a moment. Then, indeed, if we should have that reprint published with ?totes in a tarty way, with a due proportion of aqua. fortis and aqua tint—bat, alas ! Sir, we are more in the line way, as you may have observed in such specimens as have been framed and hung up to public view. I shall therefore close old regrets, Tnd proceed to give you, Sir, an account of tk►e feast, how those were dressed who were there, and how some were dressed who were not there, together with a few of the dishes that adorned the board. The OLn Lotto MAYOR roasted until hissing hot; but judicious gourmands all declared him • tr/1 done, and sound to the bone. Tile NEW LORD MAYOE, cooked very nicely, was to have been garnished with two she reeues, but there was only one i❑ the dish ; for the bill of fare expressing roughs and reeves, fte roughs were found not fit for dressing, ALDERMAN MUSLIN, with sotne of his friend - s, had been dressed and dished a few weeks before, and were now in a slew ; it is thought what is left will he curried. HUNT was spite!) cooked in a harrier of calve's Some thought he looked more natural when dressed a la daube at Westminster ; others spoke of him CoLLARED and a la tremblant at the British Coffee-house ; some recommended bamboo pickle; but he-called for mint and cater!, .sauce The CORPORATION were in BROILS, with a little mushroom catch-up. ALDERMAN FOREST was in a fry between calve's aend and goose au bourgeois.' Then came a RUMP hashed in hodge-podge, and garnished with pigeons. Besides which there was no scarcity of jam, cakes, Intl's, and macaroni; but there was no occasion for force-meat, as appetite was not wanting, and we know that the Livery can be . made to swallow any thing. In short, Sir, as far as I saw, there was nothing kvnuring but a link Blows! adder-strect o loth Nov. WHIG CREAM. pluck. THEATRICAL REGISTER. Performed Last Mght.

IVATER AT LONDON BRIDGE TO.IIIORROW. Morning - , 46 minutes after 8, I Evening, 10 minutes after 9, THE SUN. SOLEM QUIS DICERE FALSUM AUDEAT ? LONDON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1819. The Paris Papers of Sunday last, which were due this morning, have not arrived. We received this morning New York Papers to the Ilth ult. (From The New York Commercial Advertiser of the Bth ult.) BOARD OF HEALTH, OCT. 8. The Board have not received a report of any case of malignant fever thia day. By order of the Board of Health, J. MORTON, Secretary. The Baltimore Board of Health report one death and fifteen new cases of malignant fever in the 24 hours ending on Wednesday morning. The number of new cases reported on Tuesday morn ing (omitted in our last) was nine: DREADFUL-Under this head Mite's Register says " We just announced' the arrival of 3000 troops at the Havana. They paraded in great pomp for about seven boors in the heat of the sun, and we are told that 400 of them were on the evening of that day sent to the hospital, to die of the yellow fever. It was thought that a majority of the persons composing this expedition would cease to be in less than a month." LATEST FROM SPAIN.----In the brig Joseph, which arrived last evening from Bouttleaux, came as passenget• F. C. Fetewicx, Esq. bearer of dis patches from the American Minister at the Court of Madrid. Mr. FENWICK, who left Madrid on the 23d of August, states, that the Spanish Go vernment had determined not to ratify the late Treaty with America. A Spanish Courier, with official information of this fact for the Spanish Ambassador in London, passed through Botudeaux on the 29th of August. Mr. FENWICK, we understand, proceeded with his dispatches this morning for the seat of Govern ment. What course our Government will pursue we canoot say but we entertain very little doubt, that before another year sball have passed, the forts of East Florida will be garrisoned by Ameri can troops, and the territory governed by Amu-- can Laws. (From a New York Paper of the 9th ult.) BOARD OF HEALTH. No new case of malignant fever has been re ported to the Board this day. J. MORTON, Secretary. The bilious malignant fever rages in many places on Long Island. There have been several deaths at Newtown, in New Jersey, and in the ►upper part of this State the same fever has carried riff' several valuable citizens. (From the Washington Gazette, Oct. 8.) TREATY OF LIMITS. IMPORTANT..-It appears probable that the fort which our Government had begun to erect on Lake Champlain falls within the British line. This is to be regretted, but if it fairly belongs to them by the Treaty, let them have it, if we lose Rouse's Point. It is said we shall receive a compensation in the district of the ,Main; our North-Eastern Boundary, it is said, will be many miles farther North--it will extend so far as to cut off the com munication between the Provinces, and will em brace within our limits a considerable French set tlement, which has formerly been under the juris diction of Canada. 'Privateletters, this morning, from New York, of the 10th of October, state, that on the receipt of the dispatches from Madrid, a Cabinet Council was immediately called of all the diplomatic de partments, and was left sitting when the letters came away. YELLOW FEVER AT NATCHEZ.—A letter from respectable Physician at Natchez states, that the Yellow Fever had broke out there. It first ap. peered on the sth of September ; on the Bth five deaths were announced, and such was the panic during the 'navy tetras, hYeonxths Qf the ihhithi7 tants had fled to the country. It was tboug ht that in two days not more than 100 persons viol" be left in the town. No new cases occurred ° 9 the Bth. -44, • THE PRINCOSS or WALes.-,-Our Iteaders grill recollect. that at the time when the. 1110prn of e Li i u CBS 3 Was announced - , as well as a parade d preparation, we predicted that there was . n ° chance of her revisiting this country, and subscl quint facts have justified the prophecy. The Mourning Chronicle, properly so called, be' cause it mourns over every measure calculated to maintain the peace and preserve the Government of the Country, .has this day the fallowing P' s.. sage :—" The exertions made by Government to . procure a' full attendance of their friends (as they call those who surrender their judgments to the Treasury) are unexampled, and we doubt not bu t the phalanx will be formed with all its 1 15415/ strength."—This attempt on the part of the Mourning Chronicle to sneer at Government i 5 calculated to give spirit to the Loyal, inasmuch as it spews that Ministers are fully aware of Chi/, critical situation of the Country, arising from th e efforts of sedition and rebellion, and are detertnin' ed to meet the danger with firmness and a d ea preparation. But would the Mourning Chronicle have the people at large " surrender their PA'. ments" to the degenerate Whigs who support th e Radicals, while they affect to despise titers The Mourning Chronicle proceeds to say, " it i ; manifest that, notwithstanding the absurdity of the doctrines of Radical Reformers, and th a _ inefficacy of their attempts to delude the peop le ' their Meetings are to be made the pretext f or . encroachments on the rights secured to all hi. the Charter of our Liberties." There is so Wc h. impudence and malignity in this passage, th at it might be thought that the writer bad bet. rowed a pen from the Office of The (Old) Tim e !' Its impudence consists in styling those docirin eg of the Radical Reformers alisurd, which it is del l !' advocating, in effect, itself, and its malignity to accusing Government of intended encroachme nts on our Rights and Violations of Magna Charts' When a Public Print can dare to bring such fAlss and malevolent charges against Governmen t ' without a shadow of proof, and in contempt ' 2t probability, can it be said that there is a o nnl of liberty in the Country ? There is rattl er a want of law to check that daring licentiousn ess which assumes the name of Liberty, and is 01 day attempting to undermine the famadation the Political System, upon which all the righ ts and liberties of the People essentially depel 4 " But to spew that the blind malice of The Mounti n g" Chronicle only tends to involve-it in absurdities' after having condemned Government fur ca)li 4 on their friends to assist personally in givi 4 vigour and effect to the measures necessary lol. the safety of the State, it concludes with t bs following observation :—"lt would seem eh ° no argument would be necessary to bring ev er/ Patriot to his post ; and we know. not how 14 man who has received the important trust o f Representative, can apologize to his Country his absence at such a crisis." Why then W u ' Ministers be condemned for calling the ReP rg: sentatives to their duty, who otherwise folg' h indulge themselves in rural ease or rural EV rts : at a time when the security of the Count r y is threatened by vast hordes of Rebels, wb °l cause is supported, and whose aims are prom oted by the insidious sophistry, or the malignant fa lse' hoods - , of a Jaeobinical Journal which assumes mask of Whig,gisr., to destroy that unriv.a ne i fabric of political wisdom, which real Whigs' well as Tories, have always held in the hie admiratioa. A great Fire took place 'fast night at Mr. S ir veaN's, •an extensive sugar-baker, in OLlO''' . street, Whitechapel, and raged with great O r / during the whole of the night; towards the ntor ivc ing, by the great exertions of the firemen , (li flames were got under, but unfortunately, a bclt five o'clock, a large brick wall so'ddenly fell d& and crushed many persons ; several have lost the.l' lives.
