Nsweasnmooon•Tesz!.-Ifiesterday his Grace Ikea

town. Great preparations were made by the Mayor
snd Corporation, to receive his Grace in the most re-
apeetful manner. In the early part of the slay numbers
of persons began to enter the town, and also the coaches
sod other conveyances were crowded. Shortly after
twelve o'clock all the shops were closed, and before
three, the hoar appointed for his Grace's arrival, the ,
town had all the appearance of a general holiday. The
Sand-hill was the grand centre of attraction.where. at an
early hour, crowds begancto assemble and take tbeir.sta-
tions in front d the Gsfildhall,wbere it was almost impas-
sable. At a quarter before four o'clock, the arrival of the
Marquis of LONDONDERRY'S six grey carriage horses
which had been taken from the carriese at the turn-
pike-gate at Gateshead fell. At this time the Right
Worshipful the Mayor, the Recorder, Sheriffs, Alder-
bun, and Common Council. appeared on the plat-
Morris preceded by the Sergeants, fee. When the pro-
'cession arrived on the bridge, it was saluted by the
goes of the castle, and by the ringing of the bells of
ill the chorches: is a few minutes the other carriage
'of the Marquis of Lomootrazatty, in which were
the Duke of Wat.t.tuotou, the Marquis and Marchio-
Woof Losoomoutanand Lord Baal:MIA nowmade
its appearance drawn by the populace ; the carriage
was drawn amidst the greetings of the immense assem-
blage to the steps of the platform. The Noble party
having slighted and ascended the steps, were received
in the most cordial manner by the Mayor and Corpo-
ration. After this congratulation, his Grace turned
round to the crowd, and bowed several times, which
was returned by cheering, The carriages in the suite
then successively drew up, and from them alighted the
following distinguished characters:--The Marquis of
Ihuro, the Marquis and Marchioness of Worcester,
Earl and two Lady Bathursti, Lord Castlereagh, Sir

bled at the platform, the Right Worshipful the Mayor
presented his Grace with the freedom of the town,
after which the Recorder of the town read to him the
address of the Corporation, both of which appeared to
give his Grace much satisfaction, and to both he made
replies; but owing to the ringing of the bells, and the
immense noise of the crowd, they were inaudible to the
reporters. Wine having been brought forward, the
Main( drank to the health of the illustrious hero. Mr.
C. Coocsom then, in an appropriate speech, presented.
the address from the inhabitants, to which his Grace
paid great attention. The ceremony here terminated,
and the carriages being drawn up, his Grace and
party proceeded in the order in which they had ar-
rived to the town moor, to inspect the Yeomanry Ca-
valry. On reaching the Barras Bridge his G race alighted,
.and mounting a charger, rode to that part of the moor
within the race course where the South Tyne Hussars
and the Northumberland and Newcastle Yeomanry
Cavalry were drawn up, the ground being kept by the
9th Lancers. His Glace, on taking his station. was
armed in the usual manner by the line. His Grace and
