Extract of a letter from Osnaburg, Feb. 28. "The election
of our new prelate, Prince Frederick of England who is six
months and some days old, was celebrated with great eclat,
by the firing of cannon off our ramparts, ringing all the
bells in the city, and repeated acclamations of long live
Frederick, &c. All the houses ornamented with decorations
and emblems analagous to the circumstance, were illuminated
till break of day. The decorations of the town-hall were
superb; and there was a public concert the whole night.
