LEEDS, NOVEMBER 7.

The two field pieces which arrived here yesterday,
have bee* ordered on to Newcastle, and proceed on
the route thither to-morrow morning, escorted by a
Troop of the 4th, or Royal Irish Dragoon Guards.—
More Artillery arc on the route, and two other field
pieces will arrive here to-morrow. A detachment of
flying artillery is stationed at Pontefract, the Head-
quarters of the District, commanded by Major-Gene-
ral Sir JOHN 13YNG.

This morning, a body of Radical Reformers
(amounting, my informant says, to at least five hun-
dred) marched in regular procession through this
town, to attend Divine Service at Harewood Church,
which is close to the residence of the Earl of HARE-
WOOD and Lord LASCELLES. Last Sunday, SOO of
them attended Divine Service at Addle. What the
purpoit or meaning of these exhibitions nre, it is im-
possible to say ; but they are certainly neither decent
nor proper.

A large box of pikes, I am informed, has been
discovered in this neighbourhood, on the premises of
a person, who neither knows from whence they came
nor how they got there ; and there is pretty strong
evidence to conclude, that they have been conveyed
to the spot where they have been focnd, for some
foul and sinister purpose ; probably to furnish a pro-
minent part of the materials which are collecting to
form another Green Bag, which is to be brought for-
ward on the meeting of Parliament.
It is pretty certain that we shall soon have another
County Meeting, to censure Ministers, and address
the PnincE RsuEsT, on the dismissal of Earl FITZ
WILLIAM from the Lieutenancy of the West-Riding
of this County.

Yesterday Lord CASTLEREAGH and Mr.lllAitmtm
had audiences of the PRINCE lizossr at Carlton
House.

Yesterday, at half past three o'clock, his Royal
Highness the PRINCIC REGENT left town for Windsor.
The preparations for the Civic Fete, this day, are
upon a most extensive and magnificent scale. Invi-
tations have been sent to most of the distinguished
Nobility in town, and it is expected that some branches
of the Royal Family will honour the festive scene
with their presence.
Friday, the body of KING ROBERT BRUCE, which
was discovered last year at Dunfermline, in building
a new Church, was le-interred, in presence of a num-
ber of Gentlemen of distinction. A Monument is
11 now to be placed
-on these remains.

The Princess of WALES is gone to Marseilles, to re-
side there for the winter. It is not true, therefore,
that her Royal Highness is ecpected heme in the
beginning of next month, as stated in a Morning
Paper of yesterday ; nor has any older been given to
fit up her apartments in Kensington Palace; indeed,l
they ate totally dismantled. Colonel ST. LEGER has
requested to resign his situation, solely on the score
of ill health.
As was expected ! Wzna sold the first Capital in the
present Lottery, viz. No. 2,370, drawn at eleven
o'clock this morning a Prize of £20,000, Money and
Consols, in one Half, and eight Sixteenth Shares, at
his fortunate Offices, 9, Cornhill, and 17, Ludgate-
street.

After some further discussion, the resolution for Highness the Plinc,
raising a corps was carried by a great majority. On
the name of the Member for the County being pro-
posed, Mr. MAXWELL rose and declined the honour,
alleging his doubts as to the success of the mea-ore,
and avowing his purpose of expending his fund•, in
aiding •_he• unempto)ed operatives. The Honourable
Member expressed some surprise that no answer ...as

and recommended the continuation of the County

Subscription, as the best line of conduct to be pur-
sued between the governed and the governing.

COUNTY OF BERWICK MEETING.

A Meeting of the Justices, Freeholders, Commis-
sioners of Supply, and Heri tors of the County of Ber-
wick, was held at Greenlaw, on the 2d instant.

AYRS.

The Right Hon. the Earl of Home, Lord Lieute-
nant of the County, was called to the Chair.
Mr. SPOTISWOOD, of Spotiswood, moved, and Mr.
HAY, f Drummelzier, seconded, the tiillowing se-
ries of Re olutions, which were unanimously adopted:

That, at the present important moment, the Meeting feel it
their indispensable duty to offer to his Royal Highness the
Prince Regent a respectful expression of their firm attachment
to their revered Sovereign, and to the Royal House of Brum-
v.-ick, and of their devoted regard for the Constitution of tit.ir
country in Church and State.
That, removed as this district is by local circumstances, as
well as by the peaceable and orderly disposition of its Mb lan.ants,
from the baneful influence of those pi inciples of disloyal: y
irreligion which have of late been dissenin.ated with unweariee:
and too successful industry over various parts of the Enipire,
they feel themselves not the less called upon to raise their voices,
in common with those of his Majesty's loyal subjects in other
quarters, in reprobation of the conduct of those factious and de-
signing men, who, with Reform on their lips, lita anarchy in
their hearts, and availing themselves ui the unavoidiLle dis-
tresses of their less-Mitt meet fellow-countr yinen of the manufac-
turing classes, are labouring to lo,sen in their millets those clot
which have hitherto bound them to their country and their Gon,
and :o lude them into mrasutes, which, so far from allevia-
ting, must aggravate the difficulties under which they labour,
and can only end in bringing down upon themselves the Vcll-
- of the insulted laws of their country.
That such being the sentiments of the Meeting, it only re-
mains for them to express their ardent hope, that Great Britain,
after having, under Patavinurcit, attained, by her splendid exer-
tions in the Cause of Europe, the pinnacle of human glory, may
not stain the pages of her history by a record of intestine dis-
cord, and to assure his Royal Highness of their firm and unal-
terable determination to use every means these circumstances
place within their power, to aid in stemming the tide of infidelity
and disloyalty that threatens to overspread this favoured Land,
and in upholding the Altars of their Religion, the Throne of their
King, and that glorious Constitution, which, while it is the here-
ditary pride and boast of Britons, is the admit ation of surrouttd-
big nations.
That a dutiful Address be presented to his Royal highness the
Prince Regent, expressive of the above sentiments, and that the
Lord-Lieutenant be requested to forward the same.
