'1 he news of the Queen's trinmph excited the live-
hest sensations of joy at Elie, in Fife hire. tln Thurs.
dly last the town was brilliantly illuminated, and the
rpulave paraded the streets accompanied by the town'sl

ALLA*, Nor. 17.—0 n Friday the 16th current the
town of Allua WAS brilliantly illuminated t almost
every one appeared to be ictuated by the same joyful
tioehngs at the favorable termination of her Majesty's
cause ; indeed, so general is such a feeling in this
quarter, that with few exceptions, the illumination was
In every respect general. Two pieces of cannon were
eonveyed to the top of Hawk Hill (an elevated situa-
tion overlooking the town from the east) the firing of
wi.iele during most part of the evening had a very
illoy effect. Fireworks, as in ceneral upon such 01,
vasionsi were also exhibited in different quarters of the
town.

The tidings of the abandonment of the Dill of
Pains and Penalties were as welt,sme here as in every
ctiser tOwn. The external symbols of rejoicing have.
lw-ever, been very 1. •ted. The new Wellgate
Cape-room was illuminated on Monday, and a small
party dined together on Wednesday, in honour of the

. -
rvent. Placards, recommending a general illtunina-
t: in this evening, have been posted in all the streets ;

but the Matistrates seem alarmed, and anxious to dis-
courage it, not su much, it is said, from hostility to the
Queen, a' ft a fear lest the glare of light should
st..oble the predatory bands of the place to plunder
t: lieges with impanity.—(/wader Adrertizer.)
On Tuesday last, the colours of the different cur-

p r.stions in Arbroath were suspended from the win-

tl..ws of their repective Deacons, the whole flags of
Cie et?: Is in the harbour were hoisted. in testimony
of rejuicizig on arcount of the fate of the bill of Pains
at.d Penalties.

A correspondent at 3lontrove states, " On Wednes-
day evening our town was brilliantly
al:hooch it was not till a late hour that the intention
was generally known. However, when the example
was Firrn, there was a promtitude displayed to give
lurid 'Tool that we warmly participated in the joyuus
4:cession, which has ivariate4 malty a heart and light-
ed up many a countenance with eengratalation. on
the result of the ptoceeding. in the !louse of Lords.
We have traite.l the arrival of the mail with anxious
thought, to bring us an account of cash day'sprocced-
ings in this wentons trial. Though short the pre-!
pAration to illuminate, unless an anxious wish might
have anticipated the result, there were several appro-
priate inscriptions anal devices exhibited in various
u 'widows. In the centre window of our public build-
ings appeared a bust of her Majesty, a well executed
transperency. a crown placed above with " C. It.",
and ut.:ler written " Triumphant." In the window• al
a respectable inhabitant the emphatic words " Fair
Play." In that of an humble dwelling " I thank thee,',
my tigd, that thou bast made my enemies my foot-
stool :" This certainly evinces how great the plea-1
sure at the result, how universal this feeling, ■nd',
numerous were those who watched the progress of the
c lure, which it would be absurd to call "the cause of ,
party or of any individual."
The t ity of Brechin was brilliantly illuminated on
IVeduesday evening. Many very appropriate devices 1
were exhibited. One in particular attracted public
attention, and had considerable effect on the risible
faculties; in the centre was a drawing of the Queen,
surruun leJ by the name of her counsel, in large capi-1
tats; the crown elevated a little above her head, as if
ready t•m descend upon it ; a little below, on her right
ham', was a sign-post, with the words---" The road to
Italy," which was followed by two deplorable looking
wretches—a male and a fritiale--Majocebi and Demon?,
with ",Non Iwi tieurdo" homing fruin the mouth of
the former t on the Queen's lett hand stood a figure
that ini!vht serve for the statue of horror, with a belly
like a bow-window, and a large green ba..; lying by
his side. There was not the least disorder ou the
occasion.

Similar demonstrations of joy have been exhibited
at Forfar, Lawrencelti.k, Marykirl, Midcalder, Kirk-
altirePathbead, and through all t:'e principal towns,
and many of the villages of the North of Scotland.
Myairuiss.—.Although the news of the Qureu's ar
qnittal, or rather of the abandonment of the Hill of
Pains anti Penalties, was universally known in Dum-
fries on the morning ofthe 15th instant, it was not until
• the Friday following that our townsmen thought of
celebrating this event by a general illumination. On
Thnrsday morri, however, a written and anonymous
placard was posted up in different places, inviting the
Inhabitants to illuminate their lineses the same evening
—an invitation which various streets were preparing to
obey with the utmost promptitude. In consequence of
this demonstration. the Magistrates requested a con-
ference with the commissioners of police, and after dis-
ensiling the matter, the former authorities declined to
interfere in the proposed rejoicings, or to issue any order
upon the subject. The result of this conference soon
became known, and in the mean time our townsmen
were warned by a notice in the name of the commis-
sionirs to postpone their preparations till seven o'clock
on the following evening, at which hone the shops were
ordered to be shut, and the candles lighted up. This
*Pier, from whatever motive. was nearly universally
obeyed, and the High-street in particular, with the ex-
ception of the County Reading-rooms, the Council
Chamber, and one or two private houses—presented
one uniform blase of light. lu most of the back and
cross streets, sad even in the outskirts of the tows, the
illsusioation seemed to be more spontaneous and univer-
sal ; and it was sot until the spectator had reached hue-
vleugb or Castle Street that he was retilinsied of those
politwal feelings whirls mingled so strongly with the
present rejoiciags. In point of splendour and effect,
