SCENES IN LONDON.

Although containing within tbe bills of mortality perhai«i 80,000 inhabitant*, the English metnj|a>lis a century ago was a huge commonity. and tbe city wa* busy • ' i center and in iu main thomughLondon in 1780 did not extend more than a mile north aud south of St. Paul's. The houses and gardens at Hoxton poshed out a littlo further to the north, and to the south High street. Southwark, continued through Blackman street to the village of Newington Butt*, with a lino of houM« reaching to Kt-nnington OfuBMtn.—To tlie cast, •aring a fringe of houses on both sidi-a ' tho Thame*, the town ended at Mileend gate; to the west it wa* bounded by the l-arks. The southern portion of the metrojav It* was even Ires overbuilt, and more sjiacv waa filled with gardens. B-adde* tho bridge*, the river was creaaed by namerou* ferrire. and there were no -ks but the Coiuuiercial; the pool was iwdcd with ahipiung. and its wharves re bus)- etHwgh. London bridge, it s calculated, was daily crossed by oe 7u.ti(iu la-reams, nnd th<- stream of life flowed east and weat. We re-lui-m-ber tlie saying of Dr. Johnson, "Why. sir. Fleet street has a very animat<<d aje peorsnei-, but the tide of existence is at Charing Cnns." Tlie west end. of London wa* well built, but the old parts of the dtj' were dingy, elun- and dvcaj'ing. The gi-neral condition of London, indeed, was imiroving, since the exreas of deatli* over lirtlis, which liad tieen 10.89' in 1750, and 5.510in 1770. Ml in 1700 to l.fltO. That was still lad. but a* a set off Loiidoners in 1700 hail ready access to tho

bridge Heath or Bow Common, Wintenders to Hyde jark or along the river at Millbank. while to the south lay Kenuinglon and Camlierwell, and to the north Islington—long tho most noted popular resort of holiday ]iU-asare. In 1790 Islington was full of tea gardens, howling alleys and suburban taverns; the mere list of their names suggest* a p-rpctaal fair, mure or 1ms noisy, according to tbe character of Uieeotupany, and twpt-eially crowded on Sunday afternoon*, when there was a great e.«ismuirtion of buna ami >*-er. On Sumlar murninga the favorite promi-nade waa in Hyde lurk, wltcrv the fashion* iu vogue might bo seen; but the place for a show of London society was the Mall iu St. Jama' park. The ouattnm-s of gi-titb--men were often brilliant, and on a fine day the ouats of gay colors. Uu- scarlet waistcoats and the bright attire of tho ladies, all standing out against a leaf}' background, with a peep of “Queen's bouau" in the distance, might have delighted a lover of picturesque grouping. Only a few montli* had |iaasud away idnou King George III had recovered from Ida sad malady, and the cloud still bang over a court which at its la»t was never very lively. However, in January, 1790, there wa* an effort to restore- the B»i*x.-t of magnificence. Tlie royal dukra and the aristocracy arrived in cuachi* "siuyns-ang.** so said the tK-w«iiai»-rs, "anything of the kind ever seen;" while those exalted ]icr*nnagc* wi-ro clad in rich velvet, embroidered with gold, silver and Fjiangle*. The pnblic went to gaz<- on their glory; but either tho !**> pie looked somewhat unsympathetic or the officer wa* peculiarly suspicious, for tlx- soldiers who surrounded the iiabu-e suddenly locked their horse* among the crowd, no as to cause a crush and ]auiie. The seaMin advanced, summer came, aud on/Jnnc 11 a grand patriotic military spertarie was got up at the Royal circus. The di-ath of Gen. Wolfe at Qncbse.Araa reprewnted. with the scenery of the fulls of Niagara and the falls of Mnntniorenei. tableaux of the French army and the Indian warriors, concluding with Gen. Wolfe expiring in the anna of Victory. EFBCTACVLOB ZMEETAIXMEXTS. On July 11 a new piece waa brought out. called "The Triumph of Liberty: or, Tbe Destruction of the Bastille.'' which apistrcntly proved more successful, fur on Aug. 5 Astlcy's came out with "The CoufederaUon at the Champ de Mara.'' in which an attempt was made to rqirodnee Uie pomps of tlx- recent grand political ceremony in Paris. At the other end of tbe town the much frequented theatreat Sadler’s Well* produced a spectacle of the same subject, calling it "The Champ de Mare: or. Loyal Federation.” in which the whole affair was set forth in a aeries of tableaux, beginning’with the activity of tbe citiiuns in preparing the ground, their joyous loyalty shown ai tbe visit of the king, aud "the striking and orderly mantaer In which the great busineas of the flay wa* conducted." Finally the Royal arena, having led the way. wa* not to be ontdooe. hut again entered the lists with this popular subject, entitling it "The French Jubilee," and made a few striking points omitted by the other

A feature characteristic of 1780 wa* tbe performance of these spectacle* of the contemporary revolutionary incident*, put ou the stage to gratify public feeling, which had more serious exponents. There was a society in London deriving its name from the revolution of 16x8. of which the Rev. Dr. Price, the minister of a highly respectable Presbyterian congregation at Stoke-Newington, and the Earl of Stanhope, a brotber-m-law of Mr. Pitt and a distinguished man of science, were leader*, and they were jointly responsible for a congratulatory address to tbe national assembly in Paris. This occasioned the writing of Burke's "Be-flq,-tirma on the French Revolution, ”— London Graphic.
