BURNS ANNIVERSARY, 1821 "

b A party of the f: lends and admirers of BURNS ce.
lebrated the Anniversary of that Poet's birth-day, by
a dinhEr ante Globe Tavern, Tleet-street-, on Wed-
bilftlity, W. Jeasi,aii, Esq. in the Chair.
On the cloth being removed, the King's health
was drank with enthusiasm.

The CHAIRMAN then gave the memory of Burns
with point, neatness, and energy. The beauties of
the Bard being so feelingly, and uniquely developed
and expatiated upon, produced a most powerful sen-
sation upon the company.
Some of the Author's favourite pieces were ad-
mirably recited by. Messrs. STEVENSON, Cicuon,
and BARNES.

Mr. Genuine anntiurettiontif the pre,entation of a
pipe or flageolet ib the Club, originally the property
,of Burns) by a Gentleman in Litchfield, formed a
,pleasing feature in the business of the .evening It
was laid upon the table, and seemed to be locked
upon and treasured as an inestimable relic.
A choice selection of songs, toasts, and sentimer.ts
were given with great effect.
:The convivial pleasures of the..evening were of a
very superior order. The Gentlemen who formed
this Meeting were enthusiastic admirers of the im-
mortal Ayrshire 'lard, a circumstance sufficient in
itself to stamp their eforts with superiority.
We understand the succeeding Anniversary wil
be upon a much larger scale, the present havit g
gained a considerable number ofproselytes.
