London.  Dec. 1.  A correspondent has sent us the following
history of Lord Mayor's day:--[one long para. taking 4/5ths
of the col.; 30 lines up from bottom:]  Soon after the
procession by water was gone, the companies began to parade
the streets as usual.  The marrow-bones and cleavers played
opposite the windows of Cheapside, &c. while a band of young
chimney-sweepers, dressed in blue paper sashes danced in
honour of the day.----
