goon after eleven o'clock the line was completely
In,:ncd, in the above order, when the principal Of-
?: s aft-coaled to receive his flajefty, repaired tc
: edge of the Heath, efcorted by a party of the
.?al Hotfe Guards. At twelve o'clock his Royal
iiighnefs the Duke of You arrived, and immedi-
ately tru.k the commando( the field. A few minutes
oiler the arrival of his Royal Highnefs, an Officer
announced the approach of the Sovereign, who was
almolt inflantly on the ground in a chaife and four,
preceded by his Royal Highnefs the Duke of CAM-
BRIDGE on horfeback, attended by his Aid•de-Camps,
and efcorted by two of the Royal Horfe Guards, and
followed by two of the Royal Coaches and fix empty.
On the arrival of his Majefty at the edge of Black-
heath, her Royal Highnefs the Princefs of WALE',
accompanied by three of the Princeffes, entered an
open carriage and four, and joined the King in the
centre of the line, where they remained only a fhort
time, and returned to the Princefs of WALES'S houfe
to receive her Majefty and the other Princeires, who
were expeaed from town.
The line, as ufual, fainted his MAJESTY, and the
King infpeeted the Cwps both by front and rear s
after which the whole paad in open column. After
returning to their original ground, the different corps
went through the anal review exercife, and a num-
ber of manoeuvres more complicated than arc gene-
rally praaifid.
The ground was kept by the firft Battalion of
Tosser Hamlets, and a party of the Royal Horfe
Guards.
The King, after the Review was over, was efcort-
ed to the Princefs of WAsts's, where her MayEsTy
and the Princeffes arrived about two o'clock. The
whole of the Royal Party, except the Duke of
CAMBRIDGE, fat down to an elegant dinner; after
which they went in the Princefs of Waers's open
carriages to Flamftead Houfe, and Viewed the Royal
Obfervatery. They wete caudated by the Aftro-
Darner Royal.
They then proceeded to view the holiday-makers
gambols of rolling down Greenwich Hill, and the
other fports of the Fair, with which they appeared
very highly wolfed.
On their return to the Princefs of WALES'S they
remained but a (hint time, and fet *off for London
loon after fix o'clock.

The Dnke of Castasonot, after this lvview, dined
with the Officers of the different Corps, at the Green
Man Tnn upon Blackheath.
In the evening their Majeffies had a Idea patty at
the Queen's Houfe.

His Mayastv has been gratioufly pleated to &reit I:
that in future, that highly difciplined and refpeelable
teaiment the nth, or old Edinburgh regiment, ihall
be*ftyled the asth, or King's own Borderers.
Thurfday the Aberdeenfhire, and next day the In-
vernefsflaire, regiments of militia, were reviewed on
Burritsfield Links, Edinburgh, by Brigadier-General
Scott., when they went through their evolutions and
firings with fuch correduefs as did credit both to
officers and men.
Yesterday morning the firft divition of the Fife-
Ihire Militia marched from Yarmouth, on their route
for Chatham ; the fecond division were to follow this
day : the duty of Yarvnotith, is taken by the Di(s, New
Buckham, and Thetford Volunteers. The Yarmouth
Volunteers take permanent duty for three weeks from
)eflerday.
1. The follo-ving is the number of men which have
volunteered out of the Weft York Regiments of Mili-
tia, int-) the General Service, under the late Aft :
sit Regiment, z 63 ; ad ditto, 93 ; 3d ditto, 244.
The Huntingdon(hire Volunteer Infantry, com-
manded by Lord Vifcount HINCHINORROOK, have
been on permanent duty at their County town for the
lett fourteen days, and returned to their refpeftive
homes yenerday. This corps, which is compofed of
to companies, amounting to between 7 and 800 men,
atfembled fo fully on the occafion, that we believe
very few individuals to have been abfent. On this
loyal effort of fofmall a county, and which does them
the highetl honour, we f.el ourfelves at a lofs where
to bellow the utmoft praife, either on the Field or
other Officers, for their attention to the corps while
on duty, or to the men themfelves, for the prompti-
tude with which they received and executed the orders
iffued to them. Brigadier-General &meeker, and
Sir EDWARD BAYNES, the Infpeeting Officers, were
fiequently prefent at their field days ; the former oc-
ralionally taking the command and direstion of their
evolutions, which were executed with much regula-
rity and precifion ; and both there Officers particular-
ly Teo:elted that Lord HINCHINGBROOK would, prior
to his difmiltion of the corps to their refpettive homes,
exprefs to them their higheft approbation of their
!lace of difcipiine, appearance, and good conduit.
The Earl of Coe has arrived at his feat at Marl
. ten, near Frome, Somerfetthire, from Cork.
fir FRANCIS BURDETT is gone to Cheltenham for
his health—his diforder is the gout, with other inter-
nal complaints, afcribed to the extraordinary fatigue
he underwent, and exertions he made at the lea
Elation.
• Duez.—A meeting lately took place in the vicinity
of Dublin, between JOHN DAVID MOULDS, Efq. of
Milltown, and Roils ar BURKE, Efq. of Summer-
hill, both in the county of Dublin, when the latter
was feverely wounded.
A very good fight was yellerday determined near
the Jews-Harp-Honfe, between a pugilitlic lawyer
and a butcher, of boxing celebrity a; Paddington.
The combatants, after having a difpute at the Mitre
publie-houfe, agreed to fight for two guineas, which
was flaked, and the butcher beat his man, after 13
rounds of hard boxing. They were both dreadfully
disfigured.

High on the • winding flsores fublime,
That Thames' Imperial waves divide,
Majeftic in the garb of time, •
Where yon proud dome frowns on the firer tide ;
Honour's and Knighthood's bright abode,
By nobles, warriors, patriots trod,
What time from Gallia's vanquifled coaft,
!Returning with his vidor holt,
Triumphant EDWARD rear'd, CO high,
The banner'd mced of chivalry; ;
While eminent above the Deft,
With fable arms and fnowy ereft,
The youthful hero grac'd his fide,
His Country's and his Sovereign's pride ;
From ev'ry clime lo! glory calls
Her votaries to yon trophied walls ;
Binds her fair guerdon round each loyal breaft,
An bids them combat pride and (timer worth opprefs'd.
11.
The notes of triumph (well again!
Lo, Windfor boatts, as bright. a train
Of Royal youths, as brave as thole
Who frown'd defeat on Edward's foes ;
Of Royal nymphs, as fair a race
As crown'd Philippa's chafte embrace;
Around their King, their Sire, they !Rand;
A valiant and a beauteous band.
Crinfpicuous fhining 'mid the reit,
In chivalry's first honours drefs'd,
For Cambria's Prince, for George's Heir,
Albion prefers this ardent prayer:
Thine be the facred wreath of virtuous praife,
Thine youthfial Edward's fame, but crown'd with length of days.

Oh! Rill, as this aufp.cious morn
Awakes the Mule's votive lays,
May peace, and health, and fame addrn
The tributary [train the duteous pays!
And while where'er his navies ride,
Whereer his legions bend their coorfe,
Opprellve rage and giant pride
Yield to his firm, but temperate force!
Guarded he Rands Irons inroad's fear,
By Freedom's thick!, by Valour's fpcar ;
Though dark Defpair, an .1 Shame, and Woe,
Lurk in the wreaths that hind the guilty brow,
In George's diadem refplendent thine
Glory's unPallied beams, rind Virtue's gems divine. •

Greenwich Hill.yetterday appeared in all its wonted
annual fplendour s young arid old, pronsifrunofly
fembled, participated in all thole delights for which
this place has been fo juflly celebrated. The gay
folks, as thick as mites in the fun beans, formed them-
felvcs into various groups. On one fide Yon might
obferve

" The dancing ink , tint limply fought renown,
• By holding out to tire each other don.;: ;"
On the other fide, girls running; down the greeri de-
clivity, and exciting fmiles by fume accidental and
unpremeditated expofure. From morn till dewy eve
the road to Greenwich was covered with cars, (we
call them fo on this occafinn, though ufnally they are
denominated carts) filled .sith damfcls and their ena•
morated Cbaperon.s.
Yefterday Brook-green Fair was held with all the
fplendour that Saunders. Scoten, and the other mot.
ley performers could difplay. The holiday rifitants
were numerous, and the ufual fcene of mirth and up-
roar became general. One of the Round-abouts
broke down with fevered children, and a girl of eleven
years of age received a fra&ure in her fkull.
Tottenham Fair was alto attended by a great num.
ber of fpeaators, and the afs-racing afforded much
amufemer.t to the admirers of that !port.

moved, gave "The King," which toaft was enthu-
fiallically received. He then gave " JOHN LESLIE,
Efq. may he long continue an ornament to this Uni-
vertity and to Scotland, and may he add another il-
lustrious name to his predeceffors in the Mathematical
Chair." Iturils of applaufe refounded from every
part of the tab's: at this toafi, which was drank with

a neat, but forcible fpeech to the Company, in which
