London, September 13. Intelligence Extraordinary. . . [25
lines] Last Thursday being the day on which peace was
proclaimed, there was a most brilliant levee at St. James's,
firing of cannon, and diversity of rejoicings, and at night,
beautiful illuminations, grand fire works, a most superb
ball at Court, and concerts of vocal and instrumental music-
-in particular a solo on the bagpipes by Sawney MacDrone;
and the grand catch Yankee Doodle sung in thirteen parts by
thirteen loyal refugees of the best characters, which
afforded inexpressible pleasure. . . [6 lines]
