The inhabitants of the village of Great Eastern
were on Thursday last gratified with a rural treat, pro-
vided by the beneficence of the Right Hon. Viscountess
Maynard. Eight hundred cottagers partook of the
bountiful provision made for them, which included four
rounds of beef, weighing together 3001bs. ; 4001bs. of
plum-cake, 252 quartern loaves, 201bs. of fresh butter;
2i barrels of strong beer, and the usual et ceteras. The
day was passed in the most agreeable manner—rustic
sports giving a zest to the entertainments of the table.
HER. MAJESTY'S VISIT TO THE CITY.—We un-
derstand that a letter has been received by the Lord
Mayor from Sir James Graham, intimating her Ma-
jesty's gracious intention, along with the Prince Consort,
of honouring the City- with a visit on the occasion of the
opening of the Royal Exchange. The banquet it was
originally intended should take place in the Guildhall,
but her Majesty has intimated a desire that it should
be in the Royal Exchange, the open area within which
will be covered for the occasion.—Post.
ACCIDENTAL DEATIL—Last evening, about seven
o'clock, an old man, whose name we could not learn, met
his death, under the following awful circumstances, in
Webber-street, Waterloo-road:—lt appears that he was
passing through the above street, and was in the act of
tendering a child some fruit, when his foot slipped off
the kerb, and he fell into the road, coming in contact
with a brewer's dray, and before he could be extricated
the wheels passed over his body. He was immediately
picked up and conveyed to a neighbouring surgeon, but
with no effect, as he was dead. The body was ultimately
remoyed to the dead-hovse of St. John's,
