However, on Monday, his Majesty felt hinzself so much better, that he sent an express to the PRINCE Renoir and his own Relatives in this country, that he would undertake the journey yesterday ; and arrangements were made accordingly for this memorable unpreeedented event, of a King of France making his public entry into the Metropolis of dreat Britain, accompanied by the ostensible Sovereign of these realms in the persdn of the Prince Regent.

Park Cotner. From the top of Oxford-street, to Matt, part of the Edgeware-road where it is intended to . unite the Regent and Paddington Canals, a row et carriages, of various destriptions, tined each side of the way. The foot:way was filled with pedestrians ; and the centre of the ttrad scarcely afforded sufficient room for the immense multitude of coaches, cabrio lets, landaus, gigs, and taxed.carts, which were pro ceeding with as much expedition as possible towards Kilburn-wells. Beyond the Regent's Canal, the ob structions at the side of. the road were less numerous, but the centre presented a very interesting and ani mated spectacle. A string of carriages extended! almost as far as the eye could reach, flanked by an immense body of equestrians, every individual wear ins. the white cockade, generally accompanied by a sprig of laurel. The little village of Kilburnavas crowded to oncost --many elegant families having alighted there, and paid a very high price for windows, in the meanest tenements, in consequence of a squadron of the Horse Guards being' stationed there, who were to act as an escort to his Majesty from thence. It was, therefore, imagined, that some little delay would take place at Kilburn, and much anxiety prevailed to procure ac commodations in so favourable a situation. At the top of Oxford-street, at Hyde-park-corner, and in Piccadilly, considerably beyond Albemarle street, the throng of carriages, principally belonging to persons of the first rank, was so great, that much inconvenience ensued, when the procession ap e proached ; and it demanded the utmost exertions of the constables, of whom a large body were in atten dance, a ided by the soldiery, who) paraded the streets to ma ke room for it, to pass. Every window on the road that Commanded a view bf the scene, was occupied—every wall and every g.ue was taken possession of-revery tree was inhabited—and amongst those who were obliged so. content themselves with a peep, Sob dio, at the pro cession we observed a great number o f ladies, ap pirently hblding a respectable class in society. Many of the houses on the road displayed the white /oz, bearing the fleur-de-lys, and ornamented with ' bi Anche&of laurel. Such was the general appearance out of town—in town, particularly in Hyde-Park and Its immediate neighbourhood, the bustle was still greater. The gates at the top of Oxford -street, • Park-lane, Hyde Park-corner and Piccadilly, were almost impassable. The carriages, which were sta tioned two, and even in some instances, three deep, were filled with elegant company, principally fe males. The windows in Piccadilly exhibited a blaze of beauty and fashion —many of the balconies were ornamented with festoons and rosettes of white ribbon, intermieglecL.with laurel leaves. The white cockade was universally worn—and such was the joy' and exultation which beamed in every countenance, and was breathed from every tongue, that one would 'Anon . stippote ettd scene in 60 net& of Frame and riot id that or Urea Erstain, r An espreisio'n of feeling so honourable ire' mature, must impress eeen the enemies of Great Bri- Itain with a most exalted idea of the warm sensibilitiet which ornament the British character.

The Prince Regent, after giving an audience to Earl Bathurst, and receiving dispatches from Sir Thomas Tyrwhitt, brought by Mr. Sylvester, the King'S Messenger, who artited at Caehon-house, which we understand state, that the Queen of Wir temburg has postponed her visit to this country on account of indisposition, his loyal Highness left Carlton-house in his travelling carriage, for Stan more, at half-past twelve o'clock, attended by the Duke of Montrose, the Master of the Horse, and Vis count Melbourne, the Lord in Waiting. His Royal Highness was drawn by four beastiful bays, drove fyx his postilions, in white jackets, white hats, and wEite cockades in them, all emblematical of the oc casion; with three outriders in the Royal liveries, and whiie cockades. The Grand Duchess of Oldenburg sent invitaticata to the Queen, Princesses Elizabeth, Mary, Charlotte 'of Wake, aid Sophia of Gloucester, to come to tmtey Hotel, to see the royal procession, which they ssfl aceepted, eicelit her Majesty, and were to visif i the Royal DuAsets upon this rejoicing occasion, at Agee tecloek,' when a Most sumptuous but lunch was staved up by Mr. Esendier. There were also present to join the Royal party the Russian Ambassador, Countess Leiven, GeneralTaikescoff and Lady, Baron Nichelai and Lady, and abont twenty others.. - The most excellent regulations and orders were laid down and put in force by the military, the Bow .street, and other Police Officers, from Albemarle. street, to the road in the procession; arc. ; we parti cularly allude to the exclusion oftarriages and horse men from Hyde Park—And the arrAnget of this new regulation deserves the, highest credit, 31 it enabled the mass of the people to behold the -Royal and gra tifying spectacle; with perfect ease And safety; whereas if carriage; and -horsemen had, been admitted, they would have caused great confusion and danger, and interrupted the gratification of all ranks of oeople. A Guard of Honour was marched into Piccadilly, in white gaiters, with the state colours, decorated with bunches of white ribbon ;the band in their state clothes played opposite Pulteney Hotel, to the Female Royal Party, who were repeatedly cheered by the Public, when they were at the windows. The Marquis of Abercorn invited the. Prince Re sent, the King of France, kc. to his Mansion•house, the Priory,' near Statiniore, which however, was de dined. The Prince Regent arrived at the Abercorn Arms Inn, at Stanmore, about two o'clock, from which the pincesion was to pit teed. The town of Stanmore exhibited the must novel 'sight possible to be con ceived; there was not a finlike but exhibited tokens of respect by the emblems of white —some, to shew their zeal to a great extent, actually displayed sheets - and pillow-cases. The principal part of the Nobility and Gentry of that part of the country, and In fact every person who could misster a horse, went on horseback a 'mile out the town to accompany him into Stannvote ; and when. the King had got within a short distance of the town, the populace, who, had become extremely numerous, took the horses from his carriage, and drew him into town. On the arrival of the carriage at the Abercorn. Arms Inn, we are concerned to say, the King was rvo infirm, he was obliged to be lifted out of tf.e car. `singe by his servants . : the Prince Regent was at the door of the inn in readiness to receive his Majesty, and his Royal Highness received him according to the custom of the French nation, by embracing him; they conversed in the French language. The King was dressed in blue and gold, • resembl'ng the Wind , sor uniform. The Prince Regent was dressed in full regimentals, with his Russian and English Orders. His Royal Highness was attended by, besides the Lord in Waiting and Master of the Horse, Mr. lieri.ert, Groom in Waiting • Colonel Bloomfield, Prin cipal Equery; General Hanunomi, Equery in Waiting; Master Smith, Page of Honbur ; Earl Harlington, Gold Stick ; Silver Stick in Waking, Gentlemen Ushers, &c. &c. The Procession being formed, it began to move in the following order, at twenty minutes past three o'clock 1 One hundred Gentlemen on horseback. • Horse Trumpeters In their splendid gold lace dress. A numerous party of the Royal Horse Guards. 311 Royal Carriages, beautiful hays to each; The Servants with white cockades. An Outrider to each carriage. A Party of the Royal Horse Guards. THE ROYAL.

It is impossible to describe the respect and rejni. cings shown by the people an the road. Laurels, white ribbons, &c. were displayed, as they were its Condon, in great profusion. On the entrance of the procession into Hyde Park, and as-it passed through it, the scene there exhibited is easier to conceive than describe; the motion of the crowd, in the wide part of the Park, was like an uncontrolled torrent. The procession arrived at Hyde Park Corner exactly at half-past five o'clock, and proceeded along Pico. dilly at a slow pace, amidst the shoutaof the pope. lace and congratulations of crowded honms, the cow pliments of the Royal Party at Pulteney Hotel, Ike. Among the emblems of rejoicings, those of Devon. shire house were the most coospicootts. Over each gate iii;eie and trei-kh totours ate bogi of Uwe). • When they arrived at Grillon's Hare, in' Albe marle -street, a tempore.ry platform was made, even with the passage, to prevent the King's eaperienent4 any inconvenience from ascending the steps. The Prince Regent conducted his Majesty to his apart ment, where about one hundred of the French Nobi lity were in readiness to receive him. On entering the apartment for his reception, 'and receiving the obeisance of the corripany, his Majesty turning to the Prince Regent, addressed him in-the most impressive manner, to the following effect : it I want wordsgo express the sentiments of grati tude and regard with which I am deeply penetrated. To you, Sir, I owe every thing-6y lite, even my daily bread, an.l what is Innre, the restoration of rue and my family to our bekved couituy, and to the throne of our ancestors."—[Here his Majesty, over come by his feelings, made a pause.] The Prince Regent availing himself of the oppor- I trinity, stated, in answer, that his Majesty •fek too 'sensibly those attentions which derived all their value from him by whom they were received. Aka as to any thing else, to call forth his Majesty's acnow- I ledgMent, the Allies had only supported their own 'cause in maintaining the legitimate _rights of the House of Bourbon, and were well repaid by the suc cess of their exertions, His Majesty, deeply affected :by the winning manner of the Prince , thanked him for his kindness, in endeavouring to kss.n the load of gratitude which he owed. He must, however, repeat what he had said, that to him he owed his. ,life, nay, his bread—then taking _off the Order St. 1 Esprit, which he wore, assisted by the Duke De Bourbon, and the Prince De Conde, his Majesty placed it on the shoulders of the Prince Regent, adding, " This day will eser reckon among the hap piest of my life, which affords me the grateful reffec , Lion that in investing your Royal Highness with this Order, a Prince should be the first to receive it, to whom France is so much indebted for its revival." His Majesty proceeded for some time in the same complimentary style, which was received and re turned with corresponding, grace and affability by the Prince Regent. , This ceremony took place in the parlour, into which his Majesty was conducted by the Prince Re gent. whose arm he held. Finding himself overcome with fatigue, his Majesty seated himself in an arm chair, with his Royal Highness the Prince Regent and the Duchess de Angoulemo, upon his right, the. Duke of York on his lett,the Duke de Bourbon, and Prince of Conde in front, with all his suite surround ing him. The Marquis of Hertford and Earl Choi mondeley were behind the chair. The Austrian. Russian, Spanish, and PortuguessrAmbassadors, with the British-Ministers, were also in the circle. After some farther conversation, filled with - expressions of gratitude and mutual regard, his Royal Highness, took his leave. At parting he saluted his Majesty several times, which • was returned by his Majesty with the m a st (ender emotion. His Royal Highness' then successively Saluted the Duke de Bourbon and the Prince de Conde ; and taking the hand of the Duchess of Angoulerne, be kissed it with fervouf and devotion. His Royal Meiners then entered his carriage, and dtove to Carlton House, through an immense crowd, who hailed him as he passed with the most joyful ac clamatlosss. such as—" The Prince and OW England for ever 1"--4614.• Prince and Roast Beef l"-- ,, The i Prince and Plunib=puttsting vi---ds The Bourbons for 1 riser f"--44 Louis the XVIIIth tut ever !" After his Royal Highness had withdrawn, his Ma jesty and suite sat down to a superb dinner at. half past six, which was prepared in the back parlour_ the party consisted of sixteen. The Prince de Conde and the Duchess d'Angouleme at the held of the table, his Majesty on the left, the Duc de Bourbon, with the Archbishop of Rheims at the bottorh. Du ring the whole of yesterday, the E;tsiern part of the Metropolis was completely deserted. The City ac tually emptied, itself into 'Westminster. About six *'clock, its population began to till Oxford-street and the Strand on its return home.

ANNIVERSARY OF ST. 'PAT RFCR'S DAY.—Yesterday the patrons and friends of the Benevplent Society of St. Patrick, dined together at the City of Lon , don' Tavern, the Meeting having been postponed from the Anniversary of the tutelary Saint, in con sequence of the Adjournment of Parliament. Half past five was the hour for covering the tables, but it was delayed till past seven, by the non-arrival of Mar quis Wellesley'. Even at that hour his Lordthip did not appear, and the Chair was taken by the Earl of Seitrmt, supported by the Earl of Charlemont ansk Lord War. Fitzgerald. After the cloth was removsl ed, the President read a letter from Marquis Welles ley, excusing himself on the ground of ill-health, and inclosing a draft for £lOO. Another letter was read from Colonel M'Mahon, inclosing a draft for £lOO from the Prince Regent.—The greatest cordiality and harisony prevailed throughout the eyening, and the toasts that usually suggest themselves .on these occasions were drank, with the addition of the health of Louts XVIII. and one or two other senti meats-founded upon the present situation of Europe. The sollectigas amounted 'to about £950. __ . _ AP _ tufo o; liAritt n I sr.imi, WINE ii PROACPI OF K/NC PERDIN,IND. . , (Praha env dodos / We canner conceal ft—two pinks ex's: i 0 spain.
