. , PUBLIC PIVTRY
Of HENRY MUNT, ESQ. INTO LONDOft.
The public eapectstiou had been very highly
raised by the preparations which had herr, armoulb„4.
ced to celebrate 11r. Hunt's arrival in London, to
whatever ciitae it may be attributed we know not,
bat the fulfilment yesterdoy by no means conform-
ed to the expectstioca. Great numbers of people
hued the road from Cherilig-cross to Kensaugton at
a very early hour in the morning, and continued to
accumulate till the arrival of Mr. Hoot. The
barouche, drawn by six hay home, intended for
the reception of Mr. Hoot. drew up opposite the
Camino brewhouve, at Kinglitubridge, attended by
same nieuilient of the Committee of Trade, on hour•
heck. and a body of about sixty of the " United
Sawyers." wish sundry tip and banners. About
eleven o'clock Mr. Hunt drove up in a post-chaise,
and atept into the barosiche prepared for him.—
He Will received with loud shouts by the people,
and waving of hats and handkerchiefs from the
windows of the adjacent houses. He wore a
cloak of Tartan plaid, over a plain frock cost,
and was decorated with a gold medal. He
looked extremely well ; if any thing, somewhat
more corpulent than before his imprisooment.—
Atter silence was obtained he briefly addressed the
assembled multitude.—He told them he appeared
before than the same man as ever, and with the
same principles. He hoped he had done nothing
more hat they Met, to make the people ashamed
of lion._(Loud cries of " No, no!")—And
he exhirrted them to a peaceable and orderly be-
haviour Out this
The procesmou then moved forward in the follow.
inn order :

Tivraty Horstises.
The Sawyers aid other trades on foot, four
a-breast, with the banner, inscribed, " May Uoioa
and Freedom unite us io Friendship." On the
bowlers which followed, were inscribed, " Fret not
vourselvea, because of evil men," is Truth and
Justice," " The Palladium of our Liberties—a
free Persil." " England, Scotland, and Leland."
The Mechanics followed, beating a banner, in.
scribed," Mechanic, Union," " Be firm,"

" This Union shall live when tyrant. are dead
This Union's so Arne it strikes thee with dread;
This Union so friendly it joins bud and heart,
Nur dungeons nur axes this Union shall part.
Immediately preceding the harouche in which
Mr. Hunt was were two Hags ; on one were the
words, '• Rights of the People," and on the other
** As a roaring lion and a ranging bear is a
wicked ruler over the poor people." Oue gen-
Heiman set in the barouche with Mr. Hoot, with
whose features we are unacquainted. Several
open carriages followed, filled with persons of both
sesea.—Nut the slightest disposition to tumult
appeared in the assembled multitude. When the
procession arrived opposite Carbon House, the
band of music struck up God save the Ring, and
the crowd g.vr a load cheer, in which they were
heartily jawed by Mr. Hunt ; the shops were closed
in all the strcets in the line of the procession, and
every sort of business for • time was at &stand.
The gates of the Horse Guard Barracks at
iinighbibiidge were closed, and not a single eel.
dier eppeeted °inside. A detachment was assem-
bled in Berdeitge-walk, St. James's Park, in case
of beiessity ; but from the orderly manner in which
the psaceasiou moved up the Strand, Fleet-street,
tilteapside, and is the Eagle Timm, City hoed,
se dinner, even the services of a single constable
was net required.

THE DINNU.

Long before three o'clock, the hoer which was
appointed for dinner, the greet {wok at the Eagle
T., yetis was crowded, and though it wee announced
that only 300 tickets would be issued. we believe
there were nearly 400 persons sat down. At half-
past four o'clock the patience of the company was
exhausted when they found no appearance of dinner.
and after load calls for the landlord, he appeared,
and explained that the dinner was quite ready, but
the cousmunicetion between the kitchen and the
dining-room was cut off by the number of persons
whir hod crowded into the Wove and filled the
passages- Indeed the crowd both inside and out-
side the house. made the approach to it a matter of
serious difficulty. As semi as the table was cusered,
Mr. Hunt entered the room, attended by Mr.
Parktits, Mr. Wvoler, and several other gen.
tlentru.
Mr. WooLiffe then proposed that Mr. Parkins
should take the (:brie, which was unanimously
agreed to. and that gentleman tank the Chair
accordingly,
After the cloth was withdrawn, the first toast given
wag--

Mr. Hois• t which was druid: amid the loudest testi-

liuwv then rose, and in a speech of some
length returned his thanks for the honour that had
been done him. He observed, that the whole of
the public Press, though it expressed disapproba-
tion of the sentence which had been passed on him,
usually had qualified that dimpprubation by say-
ing they by no means invent to justify Mr. Hunt in
calling the Manchester meeting. Now it so hop.
pined that with the calling of the meeting at Man-
chester be had nothing siliateves to do :• it was a
meeting colloid by 700 inhabitants of Manchester
vied Salford,. and he luaus Milk to du'arith the
convening of it as any man in that moat. 'Mr.
Hoist then detailed the treatment *hick

trohttuan.
The noise of the multitude out►ide theistsose,
'which had occasionally been heard in the &pugs

the landlord appeared in the room and awed, that
the persons outside called for Mr, Hunt, Hull on..

they would bleak into the wool.

It was put to the company whether Mr. Hunt

carried in the negative, but ultimately lie was in-
duced to go on the balcony, and address a few words
to the crowd, which had the desired effect of pro-
curing silence.
"Tin wourbery el the sufferers at bluebooks ou the 16th

Several other popular toasts and sentiments were
given, and the festivities were prolonged to a late
hour of the night.

OBELISK ON RAIISSVATE PIEII.

RAMSOATE, NOVEMBER 9.
Yesterday being the day appointed for laying the
first stone of the Obelisk, to be erected on the liter
(in conimemoration of his Majesty's most gracious
visit to this town, in September IR I , by selecting
it as the place of embarkation on the way to his
Hanoverian dominions, and by his disembarkation
here on the Bth of November on his return), the
town presented • most gay and lively scene. The
market-place and principal streets were decorated
with fins, the numerous shipping in the harbour
were dressed with colours, and the lofty scaffolding,
or frame-work erected for the purpose of raising and
fixing the ponderous blocks of granite for the
obelisk, was adoroed with oak boughs and ever-
greens, surmounted by the Royal standard, At
twelve o'clock • very numerous and respectable
body of the subscribers, accompanied by the Ma-
gistrates, having assembled at the Town Hull,
joined in procession, preceded by a band of music,
playing " Rule Britannia," and marched to the
Pier-house, where they were most politely received
by the Right Honourable the Earl of Liverpool
and the Committee of five, to whom the carrying
the work into execution had been intrusted, viz.
Sir William Curtis, Bart. Thomas Wert', Esq.
Thomas Garrett. Esq. Richard Tomson, Esq. and
John Shore, Esq. The coins to be deposited were
then exhibited, being the newest of the present
reign, and a beautiful gold coronation medal,
Which his Majesty had been graciously pleas.
ed to send to Sir William Curtis, for this par- '
pose; after which the procession moved to the place
of action (round which &space was enclosed for their
reception), where Lord Liverpool and the five gen-
tlemen of the Committee took trowels, and spread
' the mortar. The coins woe deposited by Mr.
Show, the stchitect, in the centre of the plinth
(a vast granite of Wpksed. or .11 tons weight), an
excavation having been made fee their reception.
lined with plate glass, and covered with the same
material. This done. a fine granite stone, weighing
virally 10 tons, was raised by means of the scaffold-
ing. and deposited in its destined situation. Im-
mediately a grand flourish of trumpets was sounded,
end the pier cannon fired a round of 21 guns.
smaller pieces of ordnance from the cliffs mid, no-
sels paid their tribute of applause, and the 3: •
rounding thousands of spectators rent the air th,,,
loud hums. Frew a small stage the Noble
and his brother-labourers used then mallets, and
performed their masonic operations. When the
stone was perfectly fixed, three professional singers
mounted thereon, and sang, .• Cod sore the
King," in which the spectator. joined in full
chorus, accompanied by the band. A most soi-
mused scene presented itself at this moment ; from
the balcony of the pier-house the fair sex testified
applause, the adjacent cliffs and biikfings were
covered with spectators, the pier-yard: sprawl woe
moving make, one sentiment pervaded all hearts,
one feeling only was visible. At this time the
High Sheriff of the county made his appearance,
with his servants iii state liveries, and ...tatted the
stage. The body of subscribers afterwards entered
the pier-house. which was tilled with bidie,, and
were politely invited to partake of iefresh-
went. The children of the itatioolul school
sang an hymn round the foundation-stone.—
Four hogsheads of strong beer were given away
in the pier-yard, and iii the afternoon the work-
men belonging to the harbour were regaled
with • dinner in the storehouse, their worthy master,
Sir William Curtis, having with his usual bounty
presented them with two fat sheep from his own
stock at Southgate. The town was thronged with
visitors from the adjacent country, and doting the
whole of the day an increasing bustle and stir pre-
vailed.
The Obelisk, when completed, will be upwerds
of fifty fret high, cousisisting .-.1 seven stones of
Heller granite, from the quarries near Dartmoor,
I Devonshire. the whole weight seventy tons, our
block weigh. 14 tons. ,The design is taken from
1,
the lone at 'Thebes in Upper Egypt (now Luxor.)—
It is intended to have en inscription is Latin anti Fog-
huh. Too much credit cinitut be given to the ex-
cellent workmanship conspicuous in the preparation
'of tlwse vast blocks for their destination, as well as
to the regulations d ted at_op___ yesterday during the
ceremony, sod the exactness with which the ma-
chinery did its duty. In the operations of the
morning the greatest regolarity prevailed ; every
Well was at his post ; the division of labour was
perfect.
At four o'clock • very antnerous and highly re-
spectable party of the subscribers to the Obelisk
and Tinton, dined together at the Albion Hotel,
I where a good plain substantial dinner was served lip
by John Bear. The Earl of Liverpool having
kindly e-on-ented to take the Chair, was supported
by Sir William Curtis and the Sfieriffs. Daring the
dinner the brad in the orchestra played several
lavourite sirs, and " /Von lobes Doatiits" was given
