enter the park. With a similar 
laudable vigilance, carriages were 
excluded from Park-lane, Hereford- 
strect, Green-street, Grosvenor- 
street, Mount-street, and Brook- 
street. It is owing to this precau- 
tion, that such an immense con- 
course was enabled to view this sub- 
lime sight, without a single accident- 
Among the persons who attraéted 
most notice in the Park, was Efi 
Bey, who followed, though, from 
étiquette, he could not join, the royal 
cavalcade. The bey was in his car- 
riage, accompanied by his majesty’s 
and his own interpreter, and his 
aid-de-camp. His servants were 
dressed in scarlet and gold, with 
green cufts and collars, gold epau- 
lets, plain cocked hats, with gold 
loop and button, and high white 
feather. The ‘whole number of 
spectators, and mien in arms, could 
not be less than 200,000; every 
person who could come from with- 
in a circle of twenty miles being 
collected. Many came to town 
from a distance of above 100 miles, 
to be present at the sight. The 
trees, the house-tops, every posi- 
tion. from which curiosity could sa- 
tisfy itself, were eagerly taken pos- 
session of. If we were to enumerate 
the minute particulars which were 
observed with interest in every par- 
ticular spot, the task would be end- 
less, and the detail fatiguing. It 
was, altogether, a day on which 
we have to congratulate London 
and the empire at Jarge: it was 
a day which afforded the most glo- 
rious sight we ever witnessed, with- 
out a single circumstance to excite 
the smallest regret.

The earl of Moira was this day at 
the levee; and took leave, prepa- 
ratory to his departure for Scotland, 
to assume the military command in 
that quarter. Every loyal subjeét 
will rejoice to find so good an officer, 
so brave a soldier, and so worthy a 
man, placed at last in a situation to 
serve his country. 
27th. This night’s gazette con- 
tains his .majesty’s proclamation, 
stating, that the fever now raging in 
Yew York, is an infectious distem- 
per, of the nature of a plague, and 
therefore enjoining, that all vessels 
coming from that city, or the State 
of New York, shall perform qua- 
rantine. 
2sth. The eclat with which the 
grand review of the London district 
of volunteers went off on Wednes- 
day, excited a laudable ambition in 
the breasts of the Westminster, 
Lambeth, and Southwark corps, 
to surpass, if possible, their brethren 
in arms, in discipline, in zeal, and 
military appearance. So great was 
the anxiety in some corps, that the . 
majority of the men never laid down, 
in the course of the preceding night, . 
the whole of which was spent in pre- 
paration 5 ~
