LEWES, OCT

I'HE unexpeded intelligence of Peace, was 611
Sault.* morning received here, by all descriptions
of.Peoplei with a sort of enthusiastic ferVotir,, -and
spread itself with the rapidity of lightning: The
hells of the different Churches Were' immedizttelY set
a ringing; and about noon, the Free-masons, cis
tok6 of loyalty, and to express their satisfaaion at
the event, hoisted their elegaot provincial Stand.:
and upon the cupola of the Town Hall, Where it!,
undulating motions, in the face of the sun,-produced
a very pretty and pleasing effe6.
In the afternoon Capt. lcEmek Volunteers were
drawn up, and fired many rounds on the joyful oc.--
casion ; and in the evening the Borough, Cliffei and
,Southover, were brilliantly illuminated, to the
beauty of which the serenity of the night greatly
contributed, as it admitted of candles being placed
in the open air. The notice was. not sufficient, for
the preparation of any tra:lsparent devices; but for
the ratificittion of Peace, we have no doubt but a
great number will be in readiness.

Parties inet at the different inns, and testified
their joy around the sparkling bowl, by a varlet::
of apposite toasts and sentiments, in bumpers, witia
appropriate.-. honours that made the .very roofs re
sound.

The town of Brighton also displayed a very 1)141.
liant illumination on Saturday night ; and it can
hardly be doubted but every town in the kineoni
manifested 'similar demonstrations of joy, on this
hay occasion.
