A boldier returning from the War to his Family
was very happily expreffed in feveral windows.
—The Goddefs of Peace with her Olive Branch,
(hone cenfpicuous among the finer of the tranf-
parencies both in the city and fuburbs. A very
large figure of Britannia, finely executed, and
holding a Brands of Laurel, was difplayed from
the Canongate Tolbooth.
Beautiful devices in cryftal lamps, were to be
teen in many of the ftreets ; G. R. in variegated
lamps, was the moft prevalent device ; and the
tin plate workers difplayed their ingenuity in the
arrangement of hundreds of brilliant lamps at their
refpeeive
The citizens teemed to vie with one another ;
Tome by a profufion of candles in one window—
others in their tafle and arrangement : among
thefe, each of five windows of a lodging fouth
corner of South Bridge, exhibited. a letter of the
word PEACt, which, viewed at a proper difiance,
had a fine appearance. But it is impoffible in our
limits to give an adequate idea of the brilliancy
of the illumination in every part of the city and
fuburbs. Princes-ftreet, viewed from the old
town, was truly beautiful; and the Barracks in
the Cattle were feen from the Lothian Road to
great advantage. Indeed we may fafely affirm
that never on any former occafion, was there fuch
a brilliant illumination in Scotland, or perhaps in
Europe.
The bands of mufic of the different Volunteer
Corps contributed greatly to the pleature of the
evening, by parading the ftreets playing GOD fave
the King, Rule Britannia,' and other loyal and ani-
mating Brains. The whole was condußed with
a degree of regularity and good humour fcldom
witneffed in the tumultuous expreffion of popular
joy. Nat one window was broken in the whole
city, and the inhabitants of all ranks teemed deter-,
mined to prove the truth of the very honourable
fentiment expreffcd in the proclamation iffued by
the Magiftrates, as there was not to Ind one " to
tarnifh the happinefs of the day by a conduet un-
worthy of himfelf!"
Every heart partook in the ettacy of joy infufed
by the happy event., and the face was the index of
the mind, for every eye'beamed gladnefs. Upon
former occafions of public rejoicing, xi, hilft we ad-
mired and applauded the heroic atchievements of
our brave warriors, and gloried in the fuccefs of
our country's arms, yet, when the unavoidable
miferies of war occurred to the mind the burl' of
joy was damped, and the tear prompted by pity,
almofi blotted out the title of glory. Upon this
occafion, however, there Weis no counterpoile—
no check; theenind gave full vent to the joy with
which it was infpitcd, and demonftrated the truth
c..f the fentiment—" That the triumphs of peace
are more glorious than the trophies of war."
