The eientful morning, (which was magnificent in point of weather) was ushered in by tse merry peals of the old bells" which continued chiming at intervals during the day and to a late hour at night. Business was entirely suspended and the streets presented a very lively and ani- mating appearance. About 2 o'clock a vast concourse of people, young and old, rich and poor, assembled in the mea- dow iu front of the Wilk's Head, to witness and take part in some rustic sports, which were announced to be then ex- hibited, M well its in some other plaoei in and about the town. These consisted of foot races by men and boys, wo- men and girls, wheeling barrows blindfolded, jumping, donkey races, running in sacks, by both men and women, climtiiiig a greased pole, &0, &c. In the evening, bonfires w> r ■ tilazing on some of the surrounding hills, whilst many of toe houses were very fairly illuminated. A brass band, accompanied by a large crowd, some bearing torches, ifre- bars, &o., paraded the streets, occasionally discnarging firearms, and shouting their hearty wishes for the welfare and happinpss of the future Kirg and Queen of England. The whole affair was very pleasingly conducted and ter. minated in a most agreeable manner. The inhabitants have to thank those more immediately concerned in the manage- lueut of the rejoicings for toe tact and skill displayed by j tbem throughout the whole proceedings.

A concert, under the leadership of Mr. John Davies, was aiven in the long room at the Talbot Hotel. The room was neatly arranged and tastefully decorated.

In the afternoon several persons indulged in gvmnastic sports, which afforded great amusement to the pirties who took part in them. But what attracted the greatest attention and admiration was the procession through the town of the National School children to the number of two hundred and twenty, preceded by the brass band of the place After parading the streets, the children were entertained to tea and cake at the schoolroom.
