The favourable state of the weather on the days
for presenting Addresses to the Quasi', has been
often Noticed by more than the credulous and su-
perstitious; it has proved so invariably the case,
is ant day is now called a Queen's day. The ship-
builders arm the first deputation that proceeded
through the Strand last morning; they displayed
considerable number of handsome Winters, with ap-
propriate mottoes, and models of slips curried on
men's shoulders. It was a pedestrian procession, con-
sisting of live thousand men, all neatly dressed, and
wearing white favours and sprigs of laurel.
The most novel, and by fir the most -striking,
was that of the Highlanders residing in Loudon,
tend deputed from the Highland Assembly. The
summons was—
_ _ _

" Caw every hill• plaid, sad
True heart that wears owe."
Their " gathering place," yesterday morning, was
the Crown and Anchor Tavern, and they " cam
drappits in" from an rally hour. In the number
were several gentlemen, we understand, of very
high rank in the army, and some connected with
distiegaished characters in the Senate and at the
Dar. They were all in full Highlsod dresses, each
having a tartan jacket and kilt, with the plaid
is rich folds o'er the shoulder, hue*, poach, black
velvet stock, and 4' bonnet blue," decorated with
the " eagle plume" mired wnb oretich feathers.
A sort of collar of white 'elk was worn ever the
plaid, and a large rosette of white ribband on the
breast. The procession consisted of twelve lan-
daus and four, all with white horses—the postil-
lions having white small clothes, waistcoats and
hot., with white cockades and buff jackets. Two
Highland pipers sat io the first landau, and at
half-past eleven o'clock, when the procession
moved forward, a pibroch " waked its wild voice
anew." and " tir'd their Ilieland bled with mickle
glee." A large flag of silk plaid with sky-blue
streamers was carried in the same landau. The
spectacle was iu every respect most interesting.
The tartan dress must have awakened inmy a scene
of mist and mountain, glen and strati), in the
wearer', who evidently wore their thoughts upon
their facer, while kindled eyes flashed beneath the
bonnets cocked upon their brows.
The procession with the Address from Farring-
don-Without followed nest, beaded by Sheriffs
Waithman and Williams, in their carriages and
slate liveries, and was followed by several others.
These scenes no longer boast the charm of novelty ;
they have therefore ceased to be as attractive to
the streets as usual, but as proofs of attachment
to the QuEEN they retain all their ori.4inal value.

A sturgeon, mearuring six feet three inches in I
length, has been sent by some Gentlemen at Fat-
WlAltil as a present to the QUEEN.
We understand that the celebrated BROWN is
now at Milan with VILMARCATI, Winding up the
businers of the no less celebrated Milan Commis-
Rion, *Lich, according to POWELL, has so long
ceased to be is existence. ft is worthy of remark
that au individual of the name of LARPENT,
lawyer, who was attached to the army iii the Penis- '
sub' during the war, as Deputy Judge Advocate,
and lots, since that time, been on the staff of the
garrison of Gibraltar in * rimilar capacity, has been
absent from his duties since January last, during
great part of which time he has been employed on
the business of this honourable Conuniesion at
Milan, which he has but very lately lets.—(Livening
Paper.)
The following is an extract of a letter from
Barbado,..s, dated SZ...,..ptember 13. 1820:--
o We were last week roused by the arrival of the Rev.
Mr. ~,,, wilts an account of a revolt In • company of
the 34 Weal India regiment, that bad, Ns a temporary mea-
sure, been scut from Trinidad to Tohago, and industrious
reports sown 'magnified it into ati insurrection of the Negroes,
and an edienspt to burn the torso. However, there really
were grounds sufficient to induce Sir F. Rubinson to embark
immediately with Iwo compsuies of the fusileers. Whilst
I am writiug, the Lady Curnbermeve (army vessel) has rouse
in from Tobago; she has brought up the two companies of
the 4th foot from that island to convalesce. As might be
imagined, all is quiet at Tobagn; the company of the 3,1
West India regiment has been seat Nick to Trinidad, after
due example being insole of the instigators of the disturbance.
I do not believe that any capital pluaishineuts have Irma
found necessary."
