The Procession will commence at Islington, at twelve
o'clock, and proceed to Finsburpsquare, Sun street, Bi.
shopogate-street, Cornhill, ateapside, round St. Paul's, Lnd.
gate-hill, Fleet4treet, to the Crown and Anchor Tavern,
Strand, where a dinner will be provided at sin o'clock, for
subscribers, at 7s. 6d. a ticket.
The people are requested by their friends to convince their
enemies, by their unity aid harmony, that they are the real
advocates of peace, guod.will, sod under; and are particu-
larly desired to attend to the directions of the Committee)
who will appear with white wands and scarlet favours.

Such is the form in which the expected proces-
sion is to proceed ; but some doubts are entertained
as to whether Mr. Hunt will meet his friends. The
more moderate class of Reformers are of opinion,
that, for the sake of his own character, Mr. Hunt
will imitate the course pursued by Sir Francis
Burdett, on his departure from the Tower, and
ovoid the honours which await him. The probabi-
lity is, however, that he will be consistent in his
course, and obey the summons of his old and tried
friends, Dr. Watson, Mr. Thistlewood, and Mr.
Preston. It is by such fearless conduct, say his
friends, that he has raised himself to his present
political celebrity, and lie will no doubt feel little
inclination to mar the wishes of those, who, under
every fluctuation of his career, have been his staunch
adherents.
Every precaution has been taken by the Magi..
tracy for the preservation of the peace. 111 Middle-
sex, the police-officers have been called on to have
all their forces, both temporary and permanent, on
the alert. In the City, • vast number of special
constables have been sworn io; added to which, the
Home Department has called in the aid of the City
Light Horse. The regular troops will be, as on
former occasions, disposed of in such situations a•
are most likely to be advantageous in the event of
disorder. .

Mr. Ottey, the landlord of the Crown and Anchor
Tavern, has made preparation• for the dinner to be
given to Mr. Hunt this day. He expects 300
guests. The tickets are to be 74. 6d. Thome who de-
sire wine are, of course, to pay extra. The dinner
is ordered for six o'clock.

I'ublic meetings of Agriculturists at Ross and
Leomiuster, bare resolved to adopt the Winchester
measure. _ . . .

It would appear that not only adulteration per.
'miles almost every thing we eat and drink, but
that one article is often imposed upon the public
fur another. A lady, who recently visited Mr.

street, who bas recently effected many extraordinary
cures in the most desperate cases of scrofula, by
the simplest means, lately produced to him a pac.
ket of nutriment, sold to her at a chymist's shop
in her neighbourhood as arrowroot, which was
part of the diet prescribed by the physicians for
Iner child, who was afflicted with that disease. Mr.
Wuiri.ow, on looking at the article, suspected it
was sot genuine, and upon subjecting it to a chy-
mital
process, ascertained that this excellent arrow.
root was literally oothing more or less than a purl
and simple lot of potato starch.
