the health of the worthy baronet, with three times three.

The band of the 99th regiment attended and played a variety of
beautiful airs, which, in addition to a number of excellent
songs given in the coarse of the evening, seduced the party to
remain until the "little hours" stole upon them.

We regret that want of room prevents us from noticing as we
could wish the neat and soldierlike address of thanks from
Lieut.-Colonel M'Bean, on behalf of the garrison of Montreal,
or of recording a translation of the figurative speeches,
delivered in the Indian language by Lieut.-Colonel M'Kay[137]
and A. Shaw, Esq., excited from those gentlemen by a
recurrence to the co-operation of the gallant warrior,
Tecumseh, with the lamented chief whose immortal memory forms
the subject of this article.

LONDON, April 12, 1825.

I went to Windsor on Wednesday last with the four Indians,
accompanied by my friend Mr. W----, to show them the castle,
Frogmore, &c.; but the chief object, which I had secretly in
mind, was to have them introduced to his majesty. Sir John
C----, the late mayor of Windsor, assisted me very
effectually, and the upshot of the matter is, that the king
expressed his desire to see the Indian chiefs, although every
body treated this as a most chimerical idea. They wore, for
the first time, the brilliant clothes which Mr. Butterworth
had had made for them, and you cannot conceive how grand and
imposing they appeared.

The king appointed half-past one on Thursday to receive our
party at the royal lodge, his place of residence. We were
ushered into the library; and now I am going to say somewhat
pleasing to your uncle Savery. As Sir John C---- was in the
act of introducing me, but before he had mentioned my name,
Sir Andrew Barnard[139] interrupted him, and said: "There is
no occasion to introduce me to that gentleman,--I know him to
be General Brock's brother,--he and Colonel Brock, of the
81st, were my most intimate friends,--I was in the 81st with
the colonel. There was another brother whom I knew,--he who
was paymaster of the 49th,--he was a gallant fellow. By the
bye, sir, I beg your pardon; perhaps I am speaking to that
very gentleman."

In the library there was also present Marquess Conyng
