AC:OUSTS RECEIVED BY Tills DAY'S POST.

boxy town exhibited an af)-
pearatire of splendour in illumination, on Monday
evening last, equal to any in the kingdom of its size.
The :morning w. ushered io with a merry peal; and
'haring the dry preparations were continued for the
evenings blare. -lust before the time of lighting op,
Aollle malevolent persons caused a hand-hill to be circu-
lated, stating their docrmination not to illuminate,
and vowing vengeance agaibst those whoalared to mo-
lest them; lint this weak attempt to disturb the general
joy, was treated with derision by the friends of her
3lajesty, and these unknown personages bad the mor-
tification to is it 111•9/1 as general a manifestation of &Erec-
tion to the Queen as could be shown. To add to their
chazrin, their fears impelled them to join in the blaze.
It is needless to particularise the transparencies, ter.,
at they Isere of a similar deseript• to those which
prevailed in London, Bath, Sic. Every person (with
the exception of flow*. above-mentioned) lied with his
neighbour in %licit ing attachment to his Queen, and
the cvi !ling prsse.l off ti itbout the slightest s)toptuni
of dis orioatier. The rejoicings concluded with a large
bon-fire, i whirl, was east ;a" lireru liag,•' composed
of rubbish, labels expressive of its contents, as
" Lies—Falsehood —lferiurs --Obscenity.- This was
run>un rd amidst the lowiest shouts, au,,l the populace
departed to their Louis in g..l order.

THE III:Jule r: Nonwics —On account of the
termination of the pro: retlings against the Queen took
place on Monday. We believe the evening was antici-
pated with nu little appri lictision, on at count of the great
diversity of opinion a hick nas know it to prevail, and
it is to the honour of the temper on the one aisle, and of
the precautions taken by the magistracy, fur the p . .
cation of the peace, we bare to record, that the trans-
actions of the night passed off without the !lightest ten-
dency to the disturbance of order, although nearly ao
equal proportion of the better class of houses remained
in darkness, while those of most respectable citizens, and
almost all the bumbler habitations exhibited the symbols
of rejoicing iu various gradations. The capital circum-
stance of attraction was a procession. It was conger.,
gated by a printed notice, and marshalled on Tomidatid;
(where the principal actors assembled at halfpast six
o'clock) in the followinz order :

About seven the whole brgan to move. It is ant pas-
siMe to form any thing like an accurate estimate of the
mmahers who attended, Ant frcm three to fire thousand
persons must have marched in the prorrssion wearing
white favours, besides a countless nothitutle of spec•
tators. The whole proceeded in slow but perfect order,
chrering the houses that displayed the most brilliant

ilttriog their progress there was not the slightest in-
dicaCon of tumult, or even of reprobation towards those
whose dark windows demonstrated a difference of senti-
'meld, but the partisans of her i lajesty appeared to be
desirous of maintaininr, the character of peaceable citi-
tens end !mown-aide ad lea, at the sllllle time that
they were bent upon the expression of their own feelings.

11E. use, Nov. 20.—Extract of a letter.—:l splen-
did and almost universal illumination took place in
this town on Friday night—the circumstances that pre-
ceded it, de 00000 ustrate the character of its inhabitants
in an atroog a point of view, that in -lustier 1 must
mention them to yon.—When time 'termini of the
Queen's triumph arrived, the citizens were anxious for
an immediate manifestation of their feelings in the
most remarkable manner—some talkeil of meeting to
Aildres, her Alejesty—others spoke of an Illutuinu-
