Miss TAcY concluded her engagement here on
Friday last with her own benefit, on which► occa.
sion she performed most admirably the characters
of Elvira and Lady Racket. We riere glad
to see a numerous and elegant audience attended,
as a just tribute to the talent of this highly-gifted
young Lady, and regret that want of time and
space prevents our entering fully into the merits
yf her different performances, but it would be
unjust not to say, that we do not remember any
actress's having made a more favourable impres-
sion on the Liverpool critics than Miss 144cY,
►tuning her short engagement here.—(Liverpooi

THE KINT:

REJOICINGS AT WINDSOR.

The fineness of the day. yesterday gave full
effect to the rejoicings at Windsor in honour of his MA-
JESTY'S arrival at the Cas►le. At 12 o'clock the Mayor and
deputation from the Corporation proceeded in three carriages
from the town-hall, to present the Address to his Majesty.—i
The deputation was received at .the Castle by the Marquis o
Conyngham and Lord (leaves, who was the Lord in waiting'
The Mayor presented. to the Marquis the following Address for
his Majesty
TO THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY.

The loyal and dutiful Address of the Mayor, Bailiff, Burgesses,
Recorder, Town-clerk, and other Inhabitants of the borough

of New AVindsoi.

May it please your Majesty,—We, the Mayor, Bailiffs, Bur-
gesses, Recorder, Town. Clerk, and. other ,inhabitants of the
Borough 'of Windsor, most humbly and respectfully appresch
your Majesty, to offer our heartfelt, and dutiful congratulation
upon the joyful event of your Majesty's-arrival at your Castle
of 'Windsor. ' •
.On this occasion-,. your Majesty's most affectionate sebjects
and servants have a debt of gratitude to 'acknowledge, the es.
pression of which they‘most earnestly offer to your Majesty.—
They beg to assure you, Sire; that their obligations for the
especial kindness and protection of your Majesty's Illustrious
Family riming a long series of years can never be forgotten;
and that under every circumstance their obligations have
united with the homage which your Majesty's public and Pri-
vate virtues must command, to bind them in the most unvary.

ing attadtment to your Royal Person, and the most cordial
support of your Majesty's kind and paternal Government.
In witnessing your Majesty's arrival at the renowned Palace
of your ancestors, we feel, Sire, that the Castle of Windsor will
acquire new glories by you! Majesty's residence, and that the
future historian of this abode of a long line of illustrious Kings,
will point to the whole course of your Majesty's government, as
an evidence that with your Majesty's name is associated all
that is wise and just in legislation, all that is heroic in name
and military principles, and all that is permanent in national
prosperity, as much as with 'those of the greatest Sovereigns
whose memory has consecrated the " proud keep of Windsor"
—the evidence of the British Monarchy and its strength, its
grandeur, and its endurance.
In our anticipation of the benetits which the borough of New
Windsor must derive from your Majesty's most gracious pa:.
tronage, we cannot forbear to hope, that the taste and munifi-
cence of your Majesty' will give a new impulse to the public
improvements of this ancient town, so that, as it ii uneqttalled
in its natural adiantages, it may keep pace with the general
prosperity of your Majesty's dominions.
`We beg, Sire, to offer our most ardent wishes for.your Ma •
jesty's health, and the continued happiness of your Majesty's
reign. May,your Majesty long enjoy their favoured palace of
the Kings of England. May your Majesty be very long pre-
served to theiprayers of a loyal, happy, and contented people.
The Marquis of Conyngham, on receiving this address, said,

that he was,conunanded by his Majesty to express to the Mayor,
darporation, and inhabitants of Windsor, the gratification he
derived from their cordial reception on the previo►is day and
that the King would have on this day gone to see the dinner
provided for the people, were not his Majesty unfortunately
confined to the Castle by indisposition.

At one o'clock the dinner to the populace was served up in
the High-street ;:tables wero laid at each side of the foot-way.,
and the path kept open by the Mayor and constables. About
2,000 people, who were furnished with tickets, partook of the
repast, which consisted of roast and boiled beef, and roast veal,
sallatis, and plenty.of ale. Unfortunately, the ox was not in a
condition to be:served up in due form, the roasting having been
but partially effected.... su eh parts as were done were supplied, and
the remainder will be baked, and distributed among the poor.
Two roasted.sheep were brought, in a cart, placed at the heads
of the tables, and cut up at the feast. 'Whilst the people were
at, dinner, the Marquis of C.onynglatim, the Earl of Fife, Lord
Graves, General Bolton, and some other members of the King's
Household, passed between the tables, and expressed their
satisfaction at the order and regularity which prevailed. The
Earl of Harrington, who is Governor of ‘Vindsor Castle, with
some ladies of his family, viewed the feast from the balcony of
the Castle Inn. The moment the people were seated at the
tables, the bands of the Horse Guards (Blue) and Fusiliers,
which paraded between the lines, played the favourite sir of
" 0 the roast Beef of Old England." They afterwards played
" God save the King," " Rule Britania," and other popular
airs to accompany the toasts. Sir R. Birnie and the Bow-
street police were present to assist in the maintenance of
order. Townshend, the poliee.attendant at Windsor, un-
dertook the higher duty of escorting the Marquis of Conytig-
' ham and the Berl of Fife through the crowd. Sir Edmund
Nagle had also the advantage of Townshend's explanation of
• the different joint; which covered the tables. The greatest and
most commendable order prevailed et the dinner; a respectable
inhabitant presided as steward far every 40 of the guests, and
the carving ant distribution was conducted with the greatest re.
gularity. It was a very gratifying sight to see the number of
comfortably dressed women and children who dined at the tables.
The Grace Was announced by discharges of carronades from the
Park, and Mr. Meal, fUTIAIthea gratuitously,,
a stock of wine to afford two glasses each to the people. The
following toasts were given, and loud cheering, after the dinner :
--" King, God bless him," four times four. " The Royal
family," three times three. " Prosperity to Windsor," three
times three. " The Mayor and Corporation" three times three.
" The subscribers to the dinner, three times three ; and " The
land we live in," three times three. A number of fashionable
company in carriages drove through the streets during this
hospitable treat, and the whole of the arrangements passed off
with great eclat. The tables were cleared at threeo'clock.
In the evening a public dinner was given the town-hall:
about 200 sat down at the tables : The Mayor was in the chair.
After the cloth was removed, the Mayor propoeed, " The
King, and long may he enjoy,. and honour with his presence,

The MAYOR returned'thanks, and prpposed the health of
Mr. Ramobottom and the Company. Olee—" Let the Mass
be sung, and the Bells be rung"--(the Red Cross Inigbt.)
The company sat until twelve o'clock.

The illuminations were last night repeated s. some of the
decorations were tasteful. The principal hotels displayed the
Royal insignia in coloured lamps. The Swan Inn was ex-
tremely brilliant. The streets were crowded throughout the
evening, and the Eton boys were particularly active in the ex-
plosion of fire-works, It was most gratifying to be informed,
that not a single accident happened during the -whole of the
arrangements for celebrating the Royal arrival.
Orders were yesterday issued that visiters should be admitted
to see the Castle, during the Royal residence therein, as was
the custom in hislate Majesty's time.
