SUFFOLK _PITT CiUB.

The Bury .Gqz.c4ie.'cit,ye;ste.rci4y , a Pp,.pr
founded on the principles of 'Mr. Pirr, contains. an account
of the Meeting of the Suffolk Rig, Club, on Tuesday fast,
As no room large enough to admit the whale of the comp*ny,
expected could be found in. the town of Bury, a ternporary
building was erected in the /yard of the Angel Inn, and very
tastefully decorated with oak and laurel in festoons. The toute
ensemble was pleasing, and reflected great credit on the inge-
nuity and taste of those Gentlemen whoundertook the arrange-
ment. Light blue banners, ornamented with silver, were
suspended against the walls,' with various loyal inscriptions,
amongst which were--" thureh, Kir4,- and Constitution,"—
" Fear God and honour the King,"--" George the Fourth,
and the House of Brunswick,"—" Be firrn,"—" Be united,"
&c. &c.

The President's chair was handsomely ornamented with the
colour of the party, and behind him on an elegantly wrought
shield was inscribed " Sllfollc Pitt Club, established 1321.',
The Standard of England occupied the end of the apartment
opposite the President, and over his table on a sort of prosce-
nium was placed an excellent Bust of Pitt, surrounded by
laurel, interspersed with variegated lamps. The cloth was laid
for somewhat more than 209, the extent of the number expected.
About noon the rapid arrival of elegant vehicles from all parts
of the county made the usually very quiet town all in a bustle ;
no less than 56 highly respectable, sore very distinguished,
persons were proposed to the Committee: as candidates for ad-
mission, as members of the Suffolk.-. Pitt Club, and about half
past four the preparations having- been - previously extended,
between three and four hundred-persOns sat 'down to -a most
sumptuous entertainment, consisting not only of all the sub.
stantials, but most of the delicacies of the season.- -

Col. EDGAR took the Chair, in the unavoidable, and subse-
quently explained, absence of Mr. Gooch, supported by Earl
Howe, Lord Henniker, Viscount Louvaine, Viscount Dunwich;
the Hon. J. Henniker, Sir T.' 6. oUllum, Bart. Sir L. M‘Lean,
Adm. Wilson, C. Berner, Esq., Nithl. Lee Acton, Esq., Edward
Bacon Esq., W. Batley, Esq., John Benjafield, Esq., E. P.
Blake, Esq., Major Broke,' M. T. Cocksedge, Esq., T. W.
Cooke, Esq., W. Crawford, - Esq , A. Crickitt, Esq., R.
Dalton, Esq. Col. Gould, Edward Gwilt, Esq., Jones, Esq.,
R. Mapletoft, Esq., Anthony ,Merry, Esq., James Oakes,
Esq., 0. R. Oakes, Esq., (Alderman of Bury), W. W. Page,
Esq., R. Pettiward, Esq., T. Pytches, Esq., Lieut. Col. Ray,
,Lieut. Col. Rushbrooke, E. Rust, Esq., J. Sheppard, Esq., J.
M. Theobald, Esq., J. Thruston, Esq., Lieut. Col. 'Weston,
1 and W. 11. Williams, Esq., M. D., Vice Presidents ; and W.
Rodwell, Esq. Honorary Secretary.
The rest of the company consisted, of the most respectable
characters that the County could supply. The Bury Gazette,
from which we have extracted the foregoing brief notice, con-
tains a copious account of the proceedings of the meeting. The
Chairman gave a speech, in which with great energy, feeling,
and judgment, he paid due homage to the character of Mr.
PITT, and concluded by giving
" The Immortal Memory of the Right Hon. W. Pitt," which
was drank in solemn silence, the company standing.
Tunc—" Forgive blest shade."

The worthy CHAIRMAN then, in a short speech, in which he
dwelt on the vital importance of the subject, doubted not that
the toast which he was about to give would be received with
that approbation which it merited :

" The House of Brunswick ; and may they never forget the
principles which seated their on the Throne.."—(Three times
three.)
These toasts were then. followed by
" The Health of his Majesty's Ministers."—(Three times-
thrm) •

" May the Principles of Mr. Pitt ever have an influence on
the Councils of Great Britain."—(By Loid Howe.—Three
times three.)
After many 'loyal and patriotic. toasts, " Prosperity to the
Bury Gazette," which was received with great applause, , and-
which we hope may be consideied as the harbinger of "a
-liberal
patronage to a paper that is much wanted in -a County where,
like indeed most others, though the people are generally hiyal,
yet too many persons may be found who are merely- actuated.
by the spirit of Parly.
On the President quitting the chair, the harmony of the
evening was, preserved under the auspices of John Aldrich,
Esq. whose accustomed hilarity and good humour kept a large
party together until a late hour, when the company dispersed,
expressing the utmost satisfaction.
A silver medal, struck for the occasion, bearing a striking
likeness of William Pitt, with the motto " Non sibi sed
patrke," was worn suspended on a blue ribbon by the major
part of the company.
The vocalistS exerted themselves with great effect, and a
variety of glees by Messrs: Pyne and Terrail, assisted by Col.
Rushbrooke, contributed most effectively to the conviviality of
the meeting.
Of the dinner, wines, and attendance, it is hardly possible to
speak in sufficient praise. The manner in which the whole was
served and conducted gave general satisfaction, and reflected
the highest credit upon hlr. Markham—the Host of the AngeL

,MAJESTY'S V;SIT TO SCOTLAND. •
•
BY, TILE niv,. GEORGE CRABBE, L.L.R. •
Of old, when a ninarch of England appear'd
In Scotland, he carne as a foe ;
There was, war in the land, and around, it were heard
Lamentation, and mourning, and woe.
In the bordering land, which the muses love best,
Was one whom they favour'd of old ;
With a view of the future his mind they impress'd.
And gave him the poivei to unfold.
" Come strike me the harp, and my spirit sueain,
That these visions of glory annoy,
While I to the Chieftains of Scotland explain
. What their Sons shall hereafter enjoy.

" I see, but from far,—l behold, but not pear,
When war on the border shall cease ;
New Cities will rise, and the triumphs appear
Of Riches, and Science, and Peace.

" Oh ! give me to breathe, while this scene I d3scribe,
A Monarch in Scotland I see,
When she pours from her Highlands and Lowlands each tribe,
Who are loyal, and happy, and free.

"The Islands at rest in their Sovereign rejoice,
Lo ! the power and the wealth they display ;
And there comes from the lands and the waters a voice,
From the Shannon, the Thames, and the Tay.

" All hail to our King ! is the shout of the crowd ;
I see them, a shadowy throng ;
They are loyally free, are respectfully proud, '
And Joy to their King is their song..

" Yet bear up, my soul, 'tis a theme of delight
That thousands hereafter shall sing,—
How Scotland, and England, and Ireland, unit,.
In their Glory, their Might, andtheir King. _ .
"Aloud strike the harp, for my boson: is cold,
And the sound has ft charm on.mY fears-:-
A City new-clothed, as a Bride I behold, .
And a King as her Bridegroom appears.
" 'Tis He whom they love, and who loves them again,
Who partakes of the joy he imparts;
Who over three nations shall happily reign,
And establish his throne in their hearts:"
Edinburgh, August 15, 1822.
