WEYMOUTH. MAac u 13.

On Thursday evening Lieutenant-Colonel Tay-
lor, and the Officers of the 10th regiment, gave a
must magnificent military ball and supper at Radi-
pole Barracks, to nearly 150 of the Nobility and
Gentry of this town and the county of Dorset (that
had previously joined the late Gentlemen's Ball at
Thoinas'a Rooms), and in that style of elegance
and profusion for which the gentlemen of this corps
have hero so highly famed on similar occasions.
Nothing could exceed the grandeur with which
this banquet shone. A temporary awning, com-
posed of the colours of all nations, was erected slid
carpeted, forming a communication with the ball,
card, and supper-rooms. The grand entrance was
illuminated with a most brilliant rtar, adorned with
evergreens, and the interior of the awning was em-
blazoned with upwards of 1,300 variegated lamps,
fancifully entwined with laurel, under the manage-
ment of Mr. Hawkins, and altogether producing a
most sublime and enchanting effect.
At the extremity of the -Ball-room was placed
an elegant likeness of his Royal Highness the
Prince Regent, over which was painted a plume of
feathers, accompanied with an insignia of the Most
Noble Older of the Garter, anti the inscription—
or Praice's Own Regiment of Royal
Hus-
sat.."

I lie t•ompartutents and floor were o►namented with
emblematical trophies and devices of war, loyalty,
and victory, must delightfully executed from the
pilleds of the Officers, and highly appropriate to
the actions of Morales del 'Toro. Vittoria, Pyrenees.
and Waterioo, in which this brave regiment ob-
laMed such renown ; to which was added the
I,l4otto—"Nec aspera tering."
The dancing commenced at hail-past ten, and
continued moat merrily till half-peat one, when the
company retired to the supper-rooms, the sump-
tuous disphy of which requires no further cum-
mem from us, but to observe. that Hardy, the Ma.
nor' o 1 the Nlesa, and this Banquet, received uni-
vers4 and well-earned approbatiou for the very
splendid and brilliant arrangentent of the different
141)10', each overflowing with every choice wine
alul delicacy that could be procured here arid from
the metropolis.
The party did not retire till Aurora nulled and
peeped tutu the plum.

Mr. PIiITTES, in I►is address to the Electors of
the county of Tipperary, says. " From deference
to the su4ge.tions of borne very powerful iriterests,
the heads of which are now absent from Ireland.
that the peace of the county ought ►wt to lie again
so soon disturbed by another contested Election,
autl dist toy Right 1100, C petitor should now be
placed, MI if by common consent. and with the
general acquiescence of all partiev, u► that situation
from which * Noble Viscount has heen so recently
called to the House of Frets, 1 have declined
ollerssig myself to the Elexturs at the present
li3usueast, u► the humble but assured confidence,
that they will protwrly appreciate. when nest the
opportuoity shall arise, the priticiplev and feel►ngs
under which I have acted upon the present.
