BRIUHTON, Nov. 19.--A Public Meeting was
called this afternoon. at the Old Ship, to receive the
Report of the Committee appointed to conduct, the
Procession in honour of his Majesty's arrival. Sir
David Scott, Bart. was called to the Chair, When a
Report was read from the Committee, stating—
" That a communication had been received expres-
sive of his Majesty's heartfelt satisfaction at the marks
of attachment and loyalty intended by the Inhabitants
and Visitors of Brighton. The loyal and dutiful Ad-
dress
his Majesty would receive with feelings of high
approbation, bat dispensed with the Procession intend.
ed, from a feeling of the inconvenience it must neces
sarily put so many truly respectable individuals to at
this unsettled season of the year, as his time of ar-
rivid, from many circumstances, might be very uncer-
tain; at the same time, expressive of hie Majesty's con-
fidence in the anxious wishes of the Inhabitants and
Visitors of Brighton to shew their attachment in the
most affectionate manner."
J. M. Caters, Esq. then moved that no Illumination
or Procession might take place, in oheiliimee to his
M4esty's wishes ; although he could assure the Meet-
ing that if it had received his Majesty's approbation,
a more splendid Procession never would have been
exhibited than would have taken place.
Sir J. M. Ti caner rose and addressed the Meeting,
stating that his Majesty's kind and paternal feelings
were, to avoid giving unnecessary trouble, and the
probable risk of injuring the health of the inhabitant*
and Visitors of this his favourite residence. The ins''

pression on his (Sir J. M. Tierney's) mind, was in
favour of an illumination, from the use and habit of
ages in expressing public joy; hut, in the present in-
stance, from the peculiar circumstances attending this
town, from the number of invalids, the omission of
that mark of public feeling he cordially approved of.
The Thanks of the Meeting were then voted to the
Committee, as well as to Sir David Scott, when the
Meeting separated.
