riages, theservants wearing leeks. Had rite wea-

About eight o'clock a most gratifying sight took

the boys. A Felect number of them sung an ode.

Pro,peritc to the CLiritv.---Son.t, " The Cambrian Jti-
bil ce," by Mr. Parry, which-was honoured with the strongest

The health of Sir W. W.,WYNNE being given,
his brothe6 Mr. G. W. WY NN a, in a very short, but
energetic speech*. 'said he was anthorised try Sir
W. to say, that nothing but his being obliged to
join his battalion of ,Provisional Militia, now un-
der orders for endiarkation, would- lave prevented
his being.present. With the partiality of a Wclpli-
man, Sir W. had selected that day Ito present the
Colours to his Regiment,.
Eerl-PeRcY, in returning thanks after his health
had been given, said, he hoped that each succeed-
ing century would find the Ancient Erirons as har-
monious as they then were.
The collecti'on'was very gOod, and after spend-
ing several hours in the tnw,t gratifyi=4g- manner,
the brave Cauthrians retired ;bow tea o'clock.

Mr. PITT, ivith great force and truth of expres-
sion; characterized BUON \PARTE cs "the Child and
Cha'inpion Of. Jacobinisin ;'• and by allother per-
'sem, who had an oppiirtunity of viewing him
nearer home, he has been aptly denominated,
" the Incarnation orthe Spirit of Jacobinism."
It is said that the Bishop of ROcnESTErt, in his
life of his late friend EDMU BURKE, intends to
enter fully into the question ofJUNIUS;' ill older to
shew that there is no foundation for the suSpicion
that Mr. BURKE was the author.

RUSCA, .killed at Soissons,, Was a man devoted
to BUONAPARTB from his first campaigns in Italy,
without any militavy talent, but ready and eager
to undertake the most' degrading services. He
was'several times exposed as such to the con-
tempt of the world, while the French press still
enjoyed some liberty, under the Directory.
A new Tragedy from a Lady named WiLmor, is,
according to Green-roOm report, forthcoming at
Drurv-tan.c Theatre. The fair author:, it seems,
is a friend of Miss SMITH, the 'Actress, by whom
it was 'submitted to the itidgm,ent of :Mr. WHIT-
BREAD'S Committee of Managers. • • ;
