until tome time atter midnight. The weather, yef-
terday, was extremely favourable to the fportfmen ;
many of whom, in the evening, returned heavily la-
den with the feathered (pod of day. The tall di
vifion of the Glaucefier Regiment marched into this
town yeflerday. Their evening's parade late night
was dillinguilhed by,a vafl confluence of fpeflators
of the firfi rank and beauty. The weather to-day
has been more bright and agreeable even than yef
terday. The Steyne, during the whole of the pre.
ceding part of the day. was elegantly decors/Ad
with pedelliians. Many pleafure-boats, filled with
beaux and belles, have floated pleafantly on the bof •In
of old Ocean this meriting. Some ftnall !hips of war

Ilacruoi.osisw FA ait.—lt was neatly two o'clock
yelterJay before the Lord Mayor got to Cloth FAIT
Smithfield, where Bartholomew Fair was proclaim-
ed. This unufital delay was occalioned by a with on
the part of his Lordfhip that the cattle thonld be all
dr' yen sway COM the market previous to the Fair
being opened. The people, however, ambled at
an early hour in great numbers in the Old Bailey,
at Newgate, Oiltfpnr-ftreet, &c. in expectation of his
Lordfhip flopping at the prifun, and par aking, se-
t °riling to cullum, cf the cool tankard. In this they
we-e dtfappointed. The Lord Mayor patted along
Newgate-iireet, and did not enter the Old Bailey at
all, owing to Mr. Kotny, the late keeper, not being
v-t interred, and there being attoolly no keeper of
Newgate to entertain the cavalcade. Previous to the
arrival of the Lord Mayor, the cattle were driven
nut of Smithfield in great numbers, and feveral pick-
pockets, aided by rSaft..l hunter', tingled out frequently
an animal from a drove, and purfued him through
the crowd. Several individuals were thrown down,
and terribly bruited. The light-fingered gentry
availed themfelves of this confolion, and we have no
doubt picked up a eonfiderable fpoil.
The inflant the Fair was proclaimed a molt tre-
mendous tr. 92 enfued,occarioned by the fimuliancous
operations of drums, trumpets, French horns, cla-
rionets, fiddles, flutes, tambourins, and barrel organs.

than the prefent we never heard; bur we would defy
the immortal H A ti OF c himfelf to wring any thinglike
melody from it. It was not only the wife of mufical
