HULL.

We awoke from our slumbers this morning (Wednes-
day) about seven o'clock, intending to witness the de-
parture of the Mayor, Aldermen, &c., on their embarka-
tion to New Holland, to await upon his Royal Highness
Prince Albert at Brocklesby, but the appearance of the
weather being rather inauspicions and having three
miles to walk before arriving at the point of shipment,
we contented ourselves with seizing hold of one of the
last novels and whiled away the time until called to par-
take of breakfast, after which we enjoyed our " light
cigar" and wended our steps to the Borough of Ilull; in
the suburbs of the o:d town we observed several mani-
festations of loyalty, by closing the shops, but having
business which prevented our visiting the town within
the docks until the afternoon, we cannot speak to the
display of loyalty in the morning in that portion of the
borough; at the time we passed up Whitefriar-gate
several shops were closed, some few in Silver-street, and
in tho Market-place. Queen-street exhibited decided
marks of loyalty. Amongst the leading shops we were
sorry to observe open that of which Alderman ex-Mayor
Jones is the principal proprietor, that of Mr. Allathorne,
a thorough Tory, the grocer's shop of which the
Mayor is the leading partner, was being hastily
closed by the porter about three o'clock, of course too
late to allow of his journeymen and apprentices paying
their respects to Prince Albert at Grimsby.
We understand the deputation arrived at Brocklesby in
omnibuses, and, that ,a portion, being one of the town's
beadles and the town clerk, has duly returned. What
the reception has been we know not, but report speaks as
of the weather—somewhat chilling.
Upon the Corporation breakwater we observed three
flags, hoisted upon three rough rickert, one bearing the
words "Let us all be one People," and "No monopoly;"
on another we observed the names of "B. M. Jalland,
J. L. Smith, mayor," but what else, or what was the in-
scription on the third flag, as we had no desire to bide
" The pelting of the pitiless storm,"
we could not discover.

Yesterday, about half-past four, a rogular snow storm
set in, which covered t.e surrounding lands in winter's
garb, and since noon to-day, with slight exceptions, the
like weather has been continued.

[A DVERTISEM ENT.] —An incontestable proof of the
efficacy of Holloway's Pills for the Cure of Liver Complaints.
—Mr. Robert Elkins, of Campbehown, New South Wales, had
been afflicted for several months with a severe liver complaint
which reduced him to so low a state, that he was compelled to
take to his bed; finding no relief from any of the medicaliaid he
received, he was advised to give Holloway's Pills a trial, which
he did, and this invaluable medicine (the instruction given with
it being strictly followed) in the course of a few weeks re-estab-
lished him in the enjoyment of as good health as ever he pos-
sessed in his life.— Sold by all Medicine Vendors throughout
the world, and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, 241,

THE METROPOLITAN STAKES.
The bill bas'rung on Epsom Downs,
The'saddling's o'er, the course is clear,
As each horse canters past the stand.
Admirers back him without fear.
The distance tells, the course is long,
As long again as Oxford-street,
Tho' ev'ry year the three-year olds
Have won this stake, at last they're beat.
Frank Butler, on that first-rate mare
Canczou, will have a struggle there;
Fletcatcher, rode by RAinson,
Oe'rcomes that struggle at the chair.
FLATCATCHER wins, just by a neck,
With Cain sou second, Lugar third.
Beware to lay against the ware,
Fur she can fly like any bird.
