EdiSTER MOND,ir.

Yesterday, according to annual custom, the She- ,
riffs, Aldermen, and City Office's, assembled at the ,
Mansion-house, for the purpose of accompanying the
Loan MAYOR, in procession, to Christ Church.—
About halipast twelve o'clock, the Children educat-
ing in Christ's Hospital walked in procession to the
Royal Exchange, the different classes preceded by
their tutors ; and about ball-past one the procession
was again formed, followed by the Governors of the
City Hoseitals, the Lotto MAYOR, in his state coach,
several of the Aldermen, the Recorder, the Sheriffs
in their lotit;e chariots, the servants and horses belong-
ing to Mr. Sheriff MAGNAY, decorate 4 with white
favours. In this manner they repaired to Christ
Church, Negate-stveer, where an appropriate sermon
was preached by the Bishop of ELY, in the course of
which the state of the different hospitals was tead.—
After service the company repaired to the Mansion-
-house,- where an elegant dinner was, as usnal, pro-
vided. Among the company were the Duke of DE-
vokistilßE, Duke of BUCCLEVGHt Earl of JERSEY, Lord
OSSVItiY('NE, Lord BINNING, Hon. Mr. BENNET f,
Maclaine DE SrAse, &c. &e.—At nine o'clock the
Ball-room was opened ; and by ten it was crowded
to suffocation, there not being less than 3000 persons
present It was most superbly illutninat,2d, having
nine arches of variegated. lamps thiewit from one
side of the gallery to the other, arid two rows of mall
lamps, forming a cornice ill round the room. At
ten the LADY MAYORESS, Miss DOMVILLE, entered
the room, followed by • about 400 ladies; and at half-
past ten thießall was opened ; crowded as it was, so
fascinated were the Votaries of Terpsichore, that'they
continued tripping it on the light fantastic toe till
long after the tell-tale clock had ceased to strike
little ones. Nor was the house cleared till ruddy
Aurora had streaked with gold the Eastern sky.

COVENT•G A RDEN TI-1 EAT RE.— Henry the Fifth was
pet formed at this Theatre last night. At the risinx
of the curtain " GOD save the King" was sung, and
three rapturous huzzas !ollowed from the audience.
Between the Play and Afterpiece the vocal performers
came forward again to sing the following stanzas,
written for the occasion :
Coo preserve each brave Commanda!
Each true Hero, who can thew,
Like the noble ALEZANDLA,
Mercy to a vanquish'd foe.
Paris ! by his arm protected,
From thy walls thy 'tyrant chase !
By a Nation's voice electtd,
Welcome Boys BON'S inji,e.l race!
Europe thus secur'd from datizer.
War's terrific howl shall cr4se ;
And Content, too long a stangtr,
Rest within the arnts of Peace!

After this a new grand Asiatic Spectacle, called
Sa,:ach and lialatrade ; or The Waters of Oblivion, was
produced for the first time. The story on which this
pageant is founded, is one of the most beautiful con-
tained in that highly and justly admired collection
of Eastern Romances, The Take of the Genii, and is so

well knimn as to render it unnecessary for us to de
veil it. The principal inc;deats of this interesting
tale selected and adapted to stage representation with
-considerable ability, by Mr. FARLEY, who supported
the character of the Eastern Sultan with all appro-
priate dignity. Mr. AIROYT was the hero of we
piece, the daring Sadak, and impasted to the charac-
ter considerable Interest. Mrs. H Jouxrroe infused
many charms into the lovely and persecuted Kalamai',
and was deservedly applauded. The Piece is got up
with the utmost magnificence. The music is good,
and .much of the scenery is strikingly beautiful. It
sent off with universal applause.
Daunt-Lanz TRZATRE.--The Tragedy of George
Barnwell was last night represented at this Theatre,,
with the Melo Drama of Illusion.
Tna &arum TutatuEs opened yesterday with
great eclat, each having strong claims to public coun-
tenance and support. The Surrey Theatre was parti-
cularly attractive, the House having undergone con-
siderable alterations anti embellishments, and the per-
formances being of the most superior kind.
Gate-swum rata.---This ancient and renowned
seat offers and frolic, yesterday, from the auspicious
state of the weather, w.s attended by thousands and
tens of thousands of the minor orders of his Majesty's
subjects,tor the gratification of %otiose taste the caterers
of public amusement had been extientely industrious.
There Was, as usual, a grand collection of the Thespian
Corfu, whose performances, humorous, clamorous, and
dolorous ; farcical, tragical, and quizzical, were of the
order, and were patronized by all the amateurs of
taste *and elegance assemoled on the happy occasion.
For the more volatile part of the visitors, there was
a great abundance of ssumg,truangs, roundabouts, ups-
aid-down:, and other miraculous machinery, which
were kept in perpetual motion the whole day, to the
no mail oelight of the mecl.antsts, who reaped a
glorious harvest on the occasion ; and attention was
also paid to the more solid enjoyments of the scene,
anti the most ample store of stomach fu
rniture WAS to
be found in all directions, and to these we observed
many at the busy throng pay the utmost attention.—
In Greenwich l'a: k all was titirth and festivity.
tlollday Hall was, as usual, attended by all the vota-
ries of pleasure, and hissing, tumbling, and so itatO,
occupied the attention of titi thri.ng, till long alter
night had thrown her sable veil over the olympic

sports.
