vi6inefdaT we gave a general account of the
Review in jfigh Park. We are happy in the op-
pc:milky of prefenting our Readers with one more
partic War which has the advantage of being writ-
ten by a Profdriong man.
That day was appointed for the Third Review
of the ,Volunteers in London and its environs 'by
their Royal Highneffes the Panics of Wm.'s and
the Mike of Yoaa. Scarcely had the dawn began
to briak, when the inhabitants of the metropolis,
and the furronnding villages, were routed, by the
Spirit-Itirring drum, and ear-piercing fife," which,
gave a pleating note of preparation."
ST, feven o'clock the Corps moll diftant from
the place of rendezvous were on their march.
By nine o'clock all the Corps had arrived in the
park; and having formed on their refpetlive
grounds, as undermentioned, waited the arrival
of their Royal Highneffes the Panics of Wail's
and Duke of You with the utmoll folicitude.—•
They, however, with the punetuality which forms
in prominent a feature in the character of their
Royal Father, entered the Park precifely at ten
o'clock, attended by feveral General Officers. A
fignal gun, a 12-pounder, being fired to notify
their Royal Highneffes' approach, a Royal 'Salute-
dat guns followed, when the Review began.
When their Royal Highneffes arrived at a central
point in front of the Line, a ferand cannon was
fired, and the whole Line, nearly at the fame in-
fant (each Corps by the command of its Chief),
prefented arms :—Officers fainted, the drums beat,
and the mufic played " GOD fate the King," once
over. . .

At the ibird bannon, the Corps in like manner
Mouldered by word of command, fupported arms,
and remained Ready.
Their Royal Highnefres then proceeded to the
right of the Line, and paled along from right to
lett. As they arrived near the right of each Corps,
each fucceffively carried arms,and remained Ready,
bat Officers did not falute ; after their Royal High-
nefres had pallid each Corps, arms were fupported.
The drums beat, and the mufic played in all the
various parts of the Line, while their Royal High-
fleas were palling along the front, particularly in
the Corps which they were paffing at the time.
After their Royal Highnelfes had paired along
the Line, they returned to a central point in its
front, to the N. E. corner of the large trees which
furrouncl the 'ring.
At the fourth cannon, the whole loaded, each
Corps by its own command. ' And each Corps in
the fame manner clofed its ranks.

At the ///6 cannon, the firing began by yaks
of Corps. This was a firing from the centre of the
Line to each flank, and two central Corps were
fixed on to begirt it : when thefe had fired, the two
immediately to right and left of them received the
words—Read, Prelate, Fire, independent of each
other, and fo on to each flank of the Line, the in-
terval between the fire of one Corps, and the reatij,
of the next, not exceeding two feconds. The fe-
veral Corps loaded and (bouldered immediately
after firing.
At thefixth cannon, the fame firing and loading
was relocated from centre to flank.
At thefiventh cannon, the fame firing was re-
peated from centre to flank ; but no further load-
ing took place ; after this firing, pieces were half-
rocked, pans thug, and firelocks (bouldered ; which
was done by each Corps, independent of the other,
as it fired.

In firing the Vary:, the pieces were prefented in
the air, as is ufual in firing a fog &joy.
Their Royal Highneffes remaining nearly on the
fame ground, the Line then palled them in open
columns of Companies or Divtfions.
Each Company (on its march) opened its ranks
at iso paces from their Royal Highneffes, and
again clofed them after palling.
The Corps, in paflin?, paled as in open column,
not increafing the original intervals between the
different Corps.
The mufic loft palling their Royal Highneffes
wheeled out to the left, and remained playing till
relieved by the next Band, and fo of the others.
After palling their Royal Highneffes by at leap
:to or soo yards, the feveral Corps proceeded di-
redly to their quarters, and diverged fo as to pars
through fuch gates of the Park as were molt con-
venient for their purpok, all of them taking care
to keep wide of the rear of the palling column.—
Such Corps as chofe to make a fhort halt in the
Park, Wier palling, and after breaking from the
general column, did it at fuch a diftance from the
point of paffing,as not to interrupt or interfere with
the movements of others that were behind, them,
and wifhed to proceed. Great care was taken ta
avoid or coned any (top near the Park gates, or
parages through the rads.
The fiivonrable weather, the attire of the Aran.'
blase, and curiofity fpringing from the molt prat'.
worthy motives, attraßed nearly all the metropes;'
be to Hyde Park. It was computed, that, inde-
pendent of Volunteers, upwards of eo,ooo fpedisei
tors attended. The furrounding walls were cover.,
ed with men, women, and children; gin, ginger,'
bread, porter, and cakes, were vdciferated on erg/.
fide t
!aid all yriii niertirnent, Ica, fun, and Ate.
Every eye fparkled with' animation, every heart
beat with loyal fervour ; the proud name of Briton
was vaunted with felf-congratulation ; and if the
chmterci2l idea of invafion occurred, not a man
Prefent but, contemplating this brilliant difplay of
the " Amor Pates;: was eutbufiaftically eager to

" And If dlielrfle,iansin iteriNefs gre
" We Ana SW MINNOW 10 receive tl3em on thore."
The Peters was mounted on a grey charger of
admirable proportions, and the Duke of You
lode a very beautiful brown one ; they both look-
, i remarkablymell, appeared in high health and
!pints ; and the military elegance With which they
rode along the line, and eafy deportment with
,-hich they afterwards received-the faints.* of the
o..Cfcrent Corps, captivated every fpeaator.
The Review ended about half pall twelve, when
the fcveral Corps retired to their refpeaive dißrifts,
.atended by the praife of their Royal Reviewers,'
..nd the approbation Of their Commanders and the

peeitors, excited by their lleadiaers ander arms,
regularity of firing, and the high hate of veteran
difcipline *hich they uniformly exhibited.
The Panics, Duke of You, General Officers,
and attendants, loon after quitted the Park, when,
by way of Fixate, a fecond Royal Salute of Artil-
lery was fired. Thus clofed a fcene in the highell
degree honourable to the country, and which
mull prove inexpreffibly gratifying both to the
public and private feelings of the Royal Party at
Weymouth.

touring the Review, a•lamp-lighter attended
with his ladder, and accommodated the fpeaators
with feats in the trees at fixpence per head. His
cuftomers, however, getting too forward upon a
large branch of one of them, it gave way, and de-
prived them of their pnrchafed exaltation, but
without much hurting any of them, as it came
down gradually, and two or three loud cracks
fufficiently warned a number of Ladies, who had
taken their Ration beneath its fhades, to get out
of the way of danger ; at the fame time to much
alarming the lamplighter, that he fet off with all
the fpeed in his power, leaving the remainder of
his guelts to dercend in the bell way their fancies
could invent.

We are happy however to (late that no ferious
accident occurred, though pealing burns of laugh-
ter were now and then excited by the cafual break-
ing of other branches of the trees, which obliged
thofe above to defcend upon the perierania of thofe
klow, with rather more velocity than was agreea-
ble to either party.
A Letter of Thanks to the feveral Volunteer
Corps who were reviewed was yefterday fent from
the Office of the Duke of Yon K to the different
Commanders, in which their difcipline is much
praifed, and the utmoft reliance is placed upon
their patriotifm and loyalty.

Yefterday the te.th regiment of Light Dragoons
was reviewed by his Royal Highnefs the Duke of
YORK, on Epping Foreft, near Lord Tansy's--
The whole of this regiment is compofed of new
mired men, it having fuffered fo feverely in Hol-
land, that very few returned of thole who went
out. They, however, went through their evolu-
tions in a manner that would have done credit to
veterans, and reflefted the highell credit upon
thofe officers under whole infpeCtion they have been
formed. His Royal Highnefs expreffed the higheft
fathfaetion at their conduct, and martial appear-
ance. The ground was much crowded with the
neighbouring gentry, and among the gratifications
of the morning may be ranked, the exhibition of
the broad (word exercife, by a tingle officer (the
adjutant of the regiment, as we underftood), who,
at full fpced along the line, went through the
feveral cuts and. guards with aftonifhing force and
rapidity, and from the left hand with apparently
the fame force and fkill as with the RIGHT.
