ajipearance. The Masons made a most
sjilendid appearance. They wete from
all the New England States, and we be
lieve some from tlui other States. A
similar and so large a procession of Ma

so great a number assemt)led on any oc

the building of Solomon’s Temple. 'I’he
number is not exactly known, but is pre

When the whole procession, which,
without doubt, exceeded seven thousand
persons, was in motion, it made a most
s|)lendid appearance, and we hazard no
thing in saying, was never equaled in A-

The houses, windows, doors, and roofs,
in the streets thro’ which the procession
passed, were tilled with spectators. No
elevation of any kind w here it could be
seen, rciiiained unoccupied.
The procession arrived at Bunker
Hill, Charlestown, at about half past

On Saturday last, a Counterfeit Note
of ten dollars, purporting to be of the
Bank of X'irginia, was presented' at the
Bank. It lias since been ascertained,
lhat several of the same sort are in circu

ficiently well executed to be imposed on
the public ; but on a close exa.iiination,
it will be discovered that the engraving
is inferior and coarser than on the Cien-
uine Notes. The oniameiital work (par
ticularly on the left margin) is very de
fective. The Counterfeit Notes are shor

DINNER TO MIh Cl.AY.
A dinner was given lo Mr. Clay ou
^Vcdnesday, 1st June, at Lexington, Ken
tucky, by the citizens of that town and
Fayette county. The Reporter says Uiat
the respectability and intclligcni e,as well
as the number of the assemblage, have
not been surpassed on any similar occa?
ion in that state. The following is ex
tracted from the letter of invitation of th^
Commitiec lo Mr. Clay :
“You became our Representative at
an important and critical juncture ol our
country; during the whole time, yoa.
have been the inflexible advocate of ra
tional liberty, and the steady supporter
of public justice. There has occur
red no session of Congress, out of the.
many ycm have been a member, tliai
your political acts were more coniiilt’U'-
iy in accordance with our wishes and
views of national prosperity and repose,
than the one which terminated the ar*
dent and responsil>le relationship lhat
subsisted between us.”
We select the follow ing from ainons;
