authorities. Tte lighting up was, notwithstanding, very general
in all the principal streets. The High-street, Shoreditch, seemed

of live or six, being illuminated, and displaying every variety of
appropriate devices. In Bethnal-green-road also it was equally
general. The Camden's Head, public-house, where the general
meetings of the weavers are usually held, presented a very pleas-
ing appearance, being lighted up from top to bottom, and a
number of beautiful flags, which the weavers had carried in the
processions of trades when they went to address the King, were
displayed from the windows.
