IMMINNIIMMI

ENTRANCE? OF THE BOURBONS INTO
LONDON.

This day will be celebrated in the annals of his.
tory. His Majesty Louts XVIII. made his tr.um.
phal entry into London, amid the acclamations of the.
most manly and dignified population of Europe.
Every avenue leading to Stanmore was crowded a:
an early hoof th 6 morning with spectators on f
horseback, and in carriages, all dig flaying v hits
favours, and eager to testify their joy at the return Of
good old times to Europe.
Every thing connected with the procession was
conducted with the utmost regularity and decorum,
land his MAJeSTY seemed to enjoy, with great satis-
faction, the generous sensations which Ms presence
excited in all around him. The conspicuous mark
of attention paid by his Royal Highness the rAINCt
REGENT, in meeting his Brother 3 mereign. at Stan-
more, cannot be too highly praised, nor too loudly ap-
plauded—it was, in fact, setting Ws Royal hand and
Seal to the glorious Restoration for which his Royal
Highness has been so steady and so zealous an advo.
cate for many years.

Never surely can feelings more gratifying enter the
human tnipd than those which must occupy the
breasts of both Sovereigns. Unhappily for the world,
almost all former personal interviews of crowned
heads, were brought about f'►r the pur7ove of layit.g
schemes for the further subjugation aid degradation
.of mankind and weaker Powers. The meeting of
the Rival sovereigns of France and England in the
Field of the Cloth of Gold, near Calais, fells far short

of this meeting of our PRINCE REGENT and Lows
' XVIII. at an obscure village in Middlesex.
They have merited, and have obtained, the ap-
plause of mankind ; and, as far as it is allowable to
short-sighted mortals to interpret the decrees of Pao.
VIDENCE, we may say their exertions have been crowned
by the evident favour of the ALMIGHTY. The King
of FRANCE has shewn a royal mind amidst the d rkest
eclipse of royalty. The Paisca axonsr has crowded,
into a short career, more brilliancy and sr lendour of
success than might well furnish out the annals of a
long and honourable reign. Perseverance lias given
to the cause of both, which is also the cause of human
nature, a most magnificent, a most glorious triumph.
With hearts elate, we may now look back on the
great trials which have been passed thrdugh, not only
'patiently, but firmly, but resolutely, but heroically.

Mr. SYLVMER, ihe Messenger, arrived this tn,rn.
ing with Dispatches front Sir T. Tvnwittiv, at the
Court of Wurtemberg. Mr. Svt.ves•rea is also the
bearer of letters from the Queen of Wt raiitacno to
the Quc and the PRINCE RscaNr.
As Mr. Ss Lvc.rrit passed thrnngh Holland he saw
the white flag fl)ing in Middleburg and Flushing.

his Majesty's ship JAWS, now at Deal. Przvietts to

their full dress.

REJWCINGS AT JERSEY,
AND DEPARTURE OF HIS ROYAL. HIGHNESS THE

DUKE DE BERRI.

The glorious events which have lately occurred,
and the Restoration of Louts XVIII. to the Throne
of France, was celebrated in alis Island.on Monday,
the I 1 th inst. at noon, by discharges'of cannon from
the different batteries, and afeu-de :joie from all the troops
of the line and the Militia, after which the whole
marched past and saluted his Royal Highness the
Duke DE Biltar, led by their gallant Commander,
Lieutenant General Dos. At six his Royal High-
-11:11 and Suite, their Excellencies Lieutenant Gene-
ral Dos, and Sir JOHN DOYLE, Major General HAT..
TON, and Admiral HAttcoon, with their Stair, dined
with Lieutenant Colonel MILNE, and the Officers of
the 15th Regiment, at their mess-room, where seve-
ral appropriate toasts were drank with that enthusiasm
which so happy an occasion merited. On the fol-
Lowing day his Royal Highness embarked on board
his Majesty's ship EUHOTAS for France, amidst the
firing of cannon, and the acclamations of the populace.

Friday evening being appointed for the celebration
at Edinburgh of the late glorious events, by a gene-
ral illumination of that city, all classes seemed to vie
with each other in testifying their joy at the prospect
of happiaess and peace, presented to the world by
the new order of things now established in Fi:ance.
The rejoicings commenced by_ a royal salute from
the Castle, and the battery at Leith, followed by a
feu-dejoye from the troops in the Castle, the effect of,
which, particularly in Prince's-street, was peculiarly
striking. The illumination immediately coitntsnced ;
and we do not believe that Edinburgh aed its envi-
rons ever exhibited a snore brilliant spectaelt. The
public buildings were superbly illuminated, and many
elegant and appropriate transparencies were displayed
in almost every part of the town ; a particular enu-
meration of which is impossible.
A great quantity of coals, and some tar barrels,
were, w;th much-labour, conveyed to the top of Ar-
thur's Seat, and blazed during the whole evening
with sublime effect.
A large bonfire was lighted at the Archers' Hall,
where the populace were regaled with a hogshead of
strong ale, plenty of whisky, and bread and cheese.
The journeymen and apprentice bakers paraded
the streets, dressed with white aprons, and decorated
with the white cockade, and ribbons round their hats,

and preceded by a band of music.
The boys of Heriot's Hospital, preceded by their
masters, also walked through the principal streets of
the city, and, were often greeted by the applauses of
the people.
The ball of the Norfolk Militia were stationed on
a platform in front of the Tron Church, and that of
the Edinburgh Volunteers, at the Lord Provost's, in
Charlotte-square, where they played a number of ap-
propriate tunes. Other hands parade 4 the streets.
The white cockade vaas, universally worn by all
ranks of people, both in-Edinburgh and Leith.
The town of Leith was also brilliantly illuMinated,
and displayed urauy'good devices and transparepcies,
of which the following were among the most re.
markable:
Leith. Codfee-sonan.—Four coltituns orusntintedrwith wreaths
of lamps, surntount,d by a brilliant Star, with the wilt& Wat-
ts:4ovolt. &amnia, in variegates! lamps. and altogether had a
tine erect.
Mr. Dinsali'lan, Leith liebange Hotel, 'hewed three beautiful

tramipaseaties. On the right, Fame blowing a tnunpr, and sue-
pending a seran, inscribed "Victory, Peace, and Pgnty"—be-
Death, Dritrink with the British Linn, and Ceres with the horn
of plenty. In the event*, Peace wi,ls the olive branch, and Li-
berty treading Tytarmy sutler her feet; the enemy grounding
their arms; above, the Eye of PaortnaNce ; on the left, Fame,
Britannia, god Commerce Wino, a semi', wi h " Commerce re-
• and a .hip enjos out Of putt; above, the words &Myatt-
saili:rg, Blucher, Wellington
Leith Crown, G. R. and Stu; motto," Europe wilt
now enjoy reivase,"- la variegated lamps.
Evans, Siva*, bad the two fronts of his shop elegantly
lighted op with Nariegn4e.l lamps; above, the words" Welfusg-
toe, Biliciter " below, the Crown, G R. and Star.
Trion H.:snw, Kirks:rte.—A large anchor in vat-legated lamps.
The windows of Mr. Stencil, Sherif-brae, esininted in trans-
parency iho 'angering soutint Inscription, " Win would bar
tbo..ght it," which had a considerable effect upon the risible fa-
culties of the spectators.
'L'he late happy events were celebrated at Yar-
by giving a dinner of rnast•beel and plum-pudding
on the quays to 4,000 of the lower orders. The ex-
pekes were defrayed by a, subscription among the
yore opulent part of the inhabitants.
Friday, while an erection was preparing to illumi-
nate the Custom-house at Edinburgh, the scaffolding
gave way, and one- maii was killed on the.spot, and
three others severely hurt, one of whom died before
he was carried to the Infirmary, and another shortly
after he was taken there. Two of the sufferers were
brothers, and one of them has lett a family.
At the Perth depot the news of Bonaparse's abdi-
cation was on Thursday communicated to the priso-
ners, by whom it was received with acclamations.of
joy. They soon after sent arresp.ectful message to
Captain Moriarty, requesting permission to illuminate
the prisons, in token of their delight at the prospect
of peace and liberation. This was granted, but as
they had too little time for prepatation, only the
northernsnost priori bids completely lighted up—the
Tower was illuminated by order of the governor.
Thursday se'nnight, while the fishermen 'were
drawing the net in the pool, immediately below the
Caul, 'Dumfries, they felt something in it uncom-
monly heavy, and, on bringing it to the bank, they
found that it contained the body of a man, which was
soon recognised to be The remains of a person of the
name of Joseph Rankine, who has been missing since
she 20th of last month. It is supposed that the un-
fortunate man had fallen into the river in the night-
time, and thus met his lamentable fate.
Tie Circuit Court cf. Justiciary was opened aoJed-
burgh, on Friday the Bth instant, by the Right Hon.
Lord GILLIES, when John Gibson, nailor, in Hawick,
was tried for the murder of his wife on the 19th of
November last, and, after a long trial, was found
guilty. Next day he was-sentenced to be hanged, at
or near Hawick, on the- 12th of • May next, and his
body to be given over to Drs. MON ao, Edinburgh,
for dissection. •
