most perfect good humour. . . :. ,
. Wednesday, morning the New Year was welcomed ,
in by the inhabitants of this city, with their customary
expression of joy. The streets . wee' not disgrraeal,
611 the present occasion,' by 'any greater violence,
than the outrage, publicly; of the ordinary decencies
of life. We have not, heard that any serious per-
sonal injury was inflicted,; nor are we sure that, of
those who appeared so late and early in the streets,
there were many whose fee. liiigs rendered them very
acutely sensible to the insults which they encommerod ;
but undoubtedly many females were very roughly
and vgy indelicately handled.
The beginning of the New Year, at Paisley, was
celebrated in good humour, and with naucK spirit, by
all classes. A very general display of friendship and
conviviality was everywhere manifeited. The first
otinr, was an employment of no small pleasure to
many hundred persons. It was mostly among the
juvenile orders in the way of courtship that these ce-
remonies were performed. As soon as the morning
commenced, " a glide new year to you a'," was heard
fr)
in loud vociferations in every direction ; the streets
were very throng (fuzing the night, or rather in the
morning, with these mirthful visitors paying their
early respects to their sweethearts, relatives, friends,
and acquaintances. The noise they created was some-
times considerable, but there was little of a mis-
chievous nature in any of their outward frolics. The
spirit-shops were open, as usual, during the night '
and morning. The whiskey bottles and the crystal ,
glasses suffered much, and the glassiers will have a,
few hiurs work to repair the damage done in
their line. The day was uncommonly fine, and many
walkers turned out to take the pleasure of the coun-
try air. A very great concourse of people went to
enjoy themelves on the ice. The high line of the river
Cart was like a. St. James's Day Fair, there were so
,rna.ny persons upon it, youngand old, male and female.
'ii: rougher, of these found amusement in sliding and
-Ailting, 'and by the ancient game of curling. The
,retillrie-iigain seas a mirthful time for the young
dancing -parties.: - At no former period was there
fver.sn many dancing parties in Paisley on one night.
All the hackney and stage-coaches in town were un-
dar 'arreit, and in c,.n.tant application, bringing the
.-
faii,*the blooming damsels, to the dancing balls. The
fair-ooei.at titbit of -the dances were all decked in
their, summer dresses, and their heads finely adorned
:whir xsu4r ribbons and gay gurn-fiow er s. The young
men likewise appeared in similar garments, with
whiteitioirsers and light vests, as if it had been the
zimonth of June. There were no less than nine public
dances, besides others of a more private nature. In
the Saracen's Head Inn there were three companies of
this kind; two in the Tontine Inn ; and in the Star
Inn, litrak's Head, Mason Lodge, and Salutation
'lto, one in each. About six
.Oclock on Thursday
morning, the task was conducting home the Ladies
in carriages to their respettive dwellings.

The child was induced to taste repeatedly some of the
spirits used on the occasion, and he became exces-
sively intoxicated. In the course of the day the child
vomited violently, and towards the evening a severe

laossnons Dicarrtost.—There arrived the other
day at Leith, a North Country-coaster, laden with,
among other necessaries of the season, a number of
well-fed geese, to supply the great demand during
this festive season. - The Custom-house boatmen
boarded her as usual, and one of them, to satisfy his
suspicions, on account of their great weight, most
unceremoniously cut up one of the fattest, and to his
satisfaction, if not surprise, discovered a bottle of
whiskey deposited inside. A destructive attack was
now made upon the whole, when each was speedily
disencumbered of its burden.
