A general mourning is an event which, lumpily,
seldom occurs in this favoured kingdom ; but a
general diffusion of gladness is by no means a EOM
circumstance in our annals. An important viBor7
fills the whole island with joy, and a patriotic as'.
dour reverberates in every British bosom : but.
next to a defeat of the enemy, there is nothing

faltion, as the approach of a State Lotteay. and

is the milk& of conjeaure, but the one most prob.,.
We is, that they have been hid by thieves, who had
either missed their mark, or fled for fear of deice,-
tion. But what was moat remarkable, in such re-
pository, was three printed church music books. At
first view of the bundle, it le.:resented the posture
of a dead body, which struck him more forcibly, as
