LONDON,
THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL 28, 1831.

Her MAJESTY held a Drawing-room, at Sr.
James's Palace, this day, which was very nume-
s)y attended. To-morrow their MAJESTIES leave
Lnndon, for Windsor Ca-tle.

The Right Hon. CHARLES GRANT left town
early this morning, for Inverness. It is expected
there will be a severe contest for that county.

Despatches have been recei►-ed at the Foreign
Office, this morning, from France and Holland.

Count ryrnen, the metropolis of this vast empire was
last night lit up from one end to the other, with a
lavish pomp of splendour, which those who wit-
nessed it, will never forget. The boroinglimongers'
illuminations for the triumphant issue of the late
war with Fiance, for which the country now smarts
in every joint, nerve, and sinew, were mere rush-
light glimmerings compared with it. A more
picturisque—a more magnificent spectacle, eye
newr yet saw, imagination never yet conceived. It
was not merely that every house was blazing; that
every street shone with a refulgence, surpassing
thst of a cloudless meridian sun; that tanners
Were streaming, music sounding, and bells ring-
ing in every direction ; that cannon were thun-
dering along the Thames; that the illuminated
masts and rigging of the ships of every nation.
resembled fairy-lights hung out and dancing in
air; that, in short, universal London was one broad
. blaze of glory :—it was not this that rendered the
Spectacle so sublime ;—a far nobler excitement was
at work ; it was the thousands and tens of thousands,
;and hundreds of thousands, who were parading
`every street, nook, and alley, in a spirit of the most
perfect ordi r and good humour. This it was, that
lent its high moral interest to the scene of last night.
'Though there was universal rejoicing, there was
neither uproar nor confusion. Scarcely a policeman
was anywhere to be seen. Ministers felt that
it was for the PEEL Adminis.ration, in Its natural
distrust of ti e community, to surround itself with
civil and military force; it was for them to place
the guardianship of public order in the hands of the
`people.. And their confidence was not abused. The
Morning Post Office, to be sure, was rather
-cavalierly treated, and from the numerous spots
and blotches of mud that blurred ha outer-
Adam, looked as if it had g,,t the measles;
'hut .if we except this, and a similar rough
attack made on Northumberland-house, not an
instance of tumult occurred. All was joy, and
peace, and: gOod 'fellowship. The most timid
Mother might have walked with her infant in her
arms from one extremity of London to the other,
WithOnCencountering further molestation than that
necessarily arising from the pressure of ant immense
crowd. Talk of the rabble ! The only rabble that
We know of now a days is to be met with in the
*louse of Lords.
. Countrymen, we have dwelt at length on the
subject of last night's illuminations ; for two espe-
cial reasons : first, to convince you how idle—how
silly how scandalous—how utterly and tnalignantly
talse are the calumnies of the boroughmongers,
who would persuade you that the people are revo-
lutionary and prone to riot ; that all mobs-
--the - worst and lowest we ever heard of, is
that constituted by these wretches themselves, who
though, perhaps, born in England, are in every
other sense of the word foreigners—are dan-
gerous, and should be put down ; secondly, to
implore you to follow the high example set last
night by the metropolis; and to carry on your war-
fare with the boroughniongers, in a spirit of peace
and order. Be firm, be. united ; but for God's sake,
he tranquil and decorous. Fight not with arms—
Ibis last sad extremity has not yet arrived—hut with
'lre irresistible moral weapons of reason. D grade
not the high citaracer of your cause by insubordi-
nation. It is for those who are in the wrong
to be outrageous; those who are inn the right
should be resolute but peaceable. Remember,
eountsymen --,
spies are amongst you ; sham
patriots in the pay of the enemy—we have
CtUr eye just now on one of these miscreants—are
le'r°4(is who would persuade you that all below a
certain grade in society will he injured by the passing
of the Reform Bill. Believe not. the calumny.
Scout it, as you would the suggestions of the evil
tine- It is tainted, plague-spotte and comes
Wafted from an infectious 'quarter. The express ob-
ject of the Bill is to relieve the necessities of the
Middling and lower classes;
• to give each its fairly
apportioned
In the Constitution ; to give the
..ant and the mechanic the enjoyment of a soC;4I
hoHome.
to enable them to extend the present range of
comforts; and above all, to excite in them an
ottiteail
rable spirit of ambition, by proving to them
ptuc
y, that the road to honour is no longer a
6.,_n7'sprivate pathway, shut out from all bat the
v Mut daughters of corruption ; but a broad,

open thorouefare, along which all have an equal
Kght to travel.
Till now the country has be,n whory in th,
irtrels of the boroughtnemgr rs. The sovereignty
)as been merely nominal ; the rep, esentation equally
: these men have combined in their own •p rson
-he three estates of the realm. They have beer
Kings, Lords and Commons. Church—State—
: .aw—the Army—the Navy—all diplomatic-31k
consular dignities;—the boroughmongers have mono-
uolized them all. Nothing has escaped their
clutches. No bloodhound ever yet tricked hi•
Prey with half the keenness of these quick-witae,
grasping wretches. Their avarice is Argus-eyed
it embraces in the wide circumference of its visier
every quarter of the kingdom. It is against thi
monstrous despotism—this Hydra monopoly, that w
Maw go forth to ba,•tle. In the name of the pelpi.
we declare " war to the knife" against the Im-
oughmongers. The day is gone by for compensa•
!ion, that of restitution is at band. There mos•
be no halting—no vacillation—no compromise. Th
sword of moral energy must be drawn, the scabbar
flung to the winds. Already the great battle ha•
commenced. Dover has the high honour of havint
been earliest in the field; she has led the attack ; and
has just returned the first Reformer to Parliamen•
in the per-on of Captain STANHOPE, for who:,
Sir J.;REID, much against his inclination, ha-
aitele room ! Let it be a simple between the
other towns and boroughs of the kingdom, whicl.
shall return the second Reformer.

The dynasty of the PEELS draws rapidly to a
elo,e. The glory of the spinning-jennies is on the
eve of being extinguished fur ever. GREY and Re-
form are fast carrying the day against PEEL and 13, _
roughmongering ; candour and liberality are fairly
pitted against cant and bigotry; consistency has
entered the field against hypocrisy ; and the re-
sult cannot for an instant be doubted. In a
few months, peradventure, even a few weeks,
we trust we may be enabled to say even of the
" PEEL of PEELS" himself—as Mr. HOBHOUSE face-
tiously calls him—fnit Ilium, et ingots gioriu
Teucrorum. Meantime, we hear sad news of
t!ie state of this afflicted family. Brother
YATES, We are informed, is in the gout ;
and brother ROBERT in tears; JONATHAN sigheth
from morn to night; and LAURENCE refuseth to be
comforted. As for GoULBURN—poor dear Gout.-
BURN—we have not words to express the in-
tensity of our commiseration for this man. To
fall from the Chancellorship of the Exchequer,
to the situation of a mere nobody ! How distress-
ing ! It is as bad as Mulciber's summers t from
hcaoen to earth ! No wander that the poor gen-
th man is stunned out of what few wits he ever had.
As for the head of the Firm, the once
smooth, mealy-mouthed, but now, alas, frantic
and obstreperous Sir ROBERT, he possesse,
the rare merit of having, in one brief Par-
liamentary campaign, betrayed the cloven foot to all
England. • Not a man in the three kingdoms
but now knows him as he really is. The fee of all
Reform—the advocate of an exploded system of
corruption—who dared obliquely to condemn the
Parisiats for their late glorious revolution—
who unalloyed by the slightest taint of political
liberality,: would deny its existence in others,
a,d crush it nherever it appeared who,
ete friend of the Press while it supported
him, now turns round on when it can
no longe( with honour or consistency
advocate his jesuitism,--this man now stands
out in the broad gaze of day, a mark
for scorn " to point its slow unmoving
finger at !" This is just as it should, and
always will, be. In privwe as in public life, cant
and cunning are, in the long run, no match for-can-
dour and straight-forwardness.

A Morning Cotemporary siys, " We are informed
that a number of the London bruisers, alias ' pugi-
lists,' have been hired by a Noble Marquis and his
brother,for elem ioneering, purposes, in the anti-Reform
interest, and that the said bruisers !eft the Bell Inn,
Holborn, at six o'clock yesterday morning, for Stam-
ford." Contrast this disgraceful canduct on the part
of a Noble Peer, who should know better, with the
peaceful behaviour of the lower classes, who, as he
and the m4jority of his order say, know nothing at
all, and see which puts forth the strongest proof of
good sense; the Nobleman who in defence of his al-
leged rights resolves to infringe the law, or the
humbler classs, who, though their little all is at
stake, are equally resolved on obeying it !

The attornies of Northamptonshire, in a most
praiseworthy and patriotic spirit, have signed a de-
clination to the effect tla: they will accept no re-
tainer from any candidate at an election, but will
give their services, freely and gratuitouslz, to all oho
support the Reform. This gene: eus example cannot
be too generally known or adopted. It is worthy of
general admiration.

The Jamaica packet has arrived with Papers from
that colony to the 15th March. The contents are
of. importance. From Hayti we learn that a revo-
lution had been attempted at AuX Cayes, and every
thing wits in consequence in "cnnfusiOn. It was re-
ported the President was about to march in person
against the rebels. These Papers likewise contain
letters from Cum9na, which mention that accounts
had reached that island with full particulars of the
revolt at Martinique, and crested au extrac•rdinary
sen'ation. It appears from Colombia that disturb-
ances existed there, in a letter from Santa Mattha,
announcing that till the 'communications between
!hit. plye and Baranquilla and Bogota had been
cut off.. His Majesty's ship Grasshopper had ar-
rived at Jamaim from Chagres, witli accounts cif
serious fire having occurred there, by which fifty
houses had been consumed, and much property lost.
Captain FOSTER, of his Majesty's ship Chanticleer,
MIS unfortunately drowned at Chagres. on the 4th
of February.

The Houses of Legislature of Jamaica were pro
rogued on the 24,t1t of February, on which oecasiot
the Governor delivered the following speech

most important objects, which will reflect the greatest credit

the Act which grants to persons of free condition the same
privileges as are enjoyed by the white population, and the
" Act for the Government of Slaves," free from those clauses
posing restraint on religious worship, which were fatal to the
law of IR. X. I entertain a sanguine expectation that these we.
