LIEUT.-COLONEL SIR ions 11NrR.—Tile TrMaills of this gallant Officer were interred no Wednesday at Woolwich, where he commanded the 24 battaliou of Royal Artillery. His death was occasioned, on ;he •.!il instant, in endeavouring to stop the carriage and horses of Lb own:nit-Colonel Irvine, of the same sees ice. His coachman, who was on the top of the coach, brushing off souse dust, called out to bins, as he was coming out of his garden, '• Oh, Colonel, stop the horses!" Ile endeavoured to do 50, and caught one of them by the bridle ; the horse pilinged forward, she pole struck the Colonel in the breast, and knocked hint Jou is, and the hones and carriage went over him. He got up and walked into his own house, and then dropped down. His wife was instantly sen t f ur , and all ..ossible aid procured; butt three of the ribs had been :woken. and "Ise stuck into his heart.

His Royal Highness the Prince Regent gave a splen did Fete on Friday to the Members of the Royal Family, and a number of the Nobility and Gentry. There was eoresidemble military parade on the occasion, and the Horse and Foot Guards were on duty ; their respective bands playing favourite tunes during the whole of the evening. The Queen and Princesses went in chairs at ten o'clock by the light of flambeaus through the lark. Her Majesty hail six footmen ; each of the Princesses two ; all in their state liveries. Some yeoinm of the Guards also attended. and a small party of the Horse (loads in the ride kept pace with the chairs, as they went along the walk. The procession had a pleasing effect, and the populace, who accompanied it, preserved the greatest decorum. _ I he goasips, who are acterrninei to be early enott, , h in their conjectures, impute the ['Mice's Clisrlotte's in disposition to a cause, which will be welcome to the na tion. are!iappy to state,that it was some time ago announced to the Establishment of the Princess Charlotte of Wales, that her Royal Highness expected they would wear in fit tut... only British manufactures. An order was at the saute time sent to her dress-makers, Asc. not to introduce any thing f weign into articles prepared for the wear of her Royal Highness, on pain of incurring her displeasure, and being nu longer employed. Thursday, their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of Kent and Sussex, the Duke of Gloucester, and the Prince Leopold of Saxe Cobourg, proceeded to Guildhall ; where, in the presence of the Lord Mayor, the Aldermen, and others of the Corporation assembled on the hustings, they were each presented with the freedom of the City in boxes made from a piece of oak which formed a part of Lord Nelson's ship the Victory ; they were lined with gold, and richly ornamented with the same metal.—After the ceremoxy, the company adjourned to the Mansion- House, where a splondid entertainment was given by the Lord Mayor. The Lady Nfayoress had a numerous party in the evening, consisting of not less than 2,000 persons, among whom were many distinguished foreiers. The Duke of Sussex was the only one of the Royal party who danced. The Prince of Saxe Cobourg retired about half-past eleven, and was soon followed by his illustrious relatives. Tits PRINCE ESTERHAZY'S RINQITFIT. Chandos House, in Chandos-street, Cavendish-square, was opened Sunday sennight, for the first time for more than 40 years. This magnificent structure was erected by the Grum/ Duke ; a title conferred on his Grace in c0n.... quenee of the style of regal splendour in which he lived. Every one aconainted with the old Court recollects the celebrated preparations made for the christening of the infant, when the King and Queen stood sponsors in person; they also must call to mind the extraordinary and agonizing catastrophe, viz. tine child bdngseized with cormalsiems, and dying in the nurse's arm% during the ocremuny i the presumed cause the glare of light! After that dire event the family never held isp their heads. The Duke died, and the Ditches. retired from the world, but not from the honse, in which she took a melancholy pleasure to reside, until " removed to the last stage of life's itinerary.'' Once more, terrestrial greatness appears in that quarter of the town—the prototype of the Chandos family may be seen in that of Prince Paul Esterhazy ; their possessions exceeding 350,0001. per annum. But to proreed:— In the evening his Serene Highness entertained the Prince Regent in a style of elegant judicious comfort, which produced the highest possible gratification. The party consisted of ttl persons, eompriaing the following : —The Prince Regent; Prince Esterhaay, his son the Prince Paid. and the Princess Esterhazy ; his FAcellency the Russian Ambassador and his Lady; the Spanish Ambassador; Viscount and Vis e-Aimless Castlereagh ; Marques and Marchioness of Hertford; Sir B. Bloomfield ; Baroness Lackner; Count Bombell ; Mr. Newman and Capt. Bowers. The arrangements of the banquet were as follow :—Down the centre of the table, in the great eating room, appeared a plateaux. of exquisite workmanship, in ormolu, the devices branches of vine leaves and grapes. The principal ornament was a candelabra carrying 10 wax cnndles in a circle, within which were placed the choicest flowers ; sevens] other candela bra*, carrying five candles each, assisted in lighting up the table, en which were placed a most splendid service of plate. At six n'elock the domestics were arranged in the hall, and on the grand stairease, dressed in new and inagnitim tat uni forms namely,l2 livery servants wore yellow cloth. with broad stripes of silk lace embroidered % cry richly pith the family arms, an equal number of those nsnafl• out of livery were ca. pariguned in superfine (lark blue coats, waistcoats, and breeches. embroidered with silver in a style of matchless excellence ; those dresses had only arrived from Vienna in the preceding week. At the head of the corps appeared the celehmted Huts sar, who is seen only on occasions of state. This personate, whose commanding appearance always excites respect, wore a dress which banks description; the pelisse and pantaloons cost 271/1. At seven o'clock the Prince Regent arrived. and waa intro• diced in the great drawing-mum to the Princess li:sterliiiry, a very beautiful yoniiv woman, just turned of twenty, and accomplished. The principal a t •ar:meats, which are •cf the fitst order. were admirably furnished after the Grecian taste ; rosewood and gold, the cabinet work ; the en lain., chairs, md sofa covers Or crimson striped silk. very r;cli and hatitl‘i At half past seven the company sat down tti dinner. •I'h; har.

TIME NATIONAL REGISTER MILITARY. --ow Tuesday morning the Duke of York reviewed the second battalion of the Coldstream regiment of Foot Guards in Hyde-park; and then went to the Queen's Riding house, to inspect the new formed corps of lancers. His Royal Highness was received by Capt. Peters, who has brought them to a state of great perfection. The Royal Duke was accompanied by his Aids-de-Camp, the Earl of Rosslyn, General Floyd, the Marquis of Worcester, Col. Morland, Capt Floyd, Col. l'onsonby, and a num ber of other cavalry Officers. They took their station in a gallery at the east end, near the Queen's Palace. The corps then contmenced their exercise. It was a matter of astonishment to see with what firmness the men ridt their horses in full gallop, and at the same time load, tire pistols, and change from lance to pis tols, and from them to the sword exercise, and again return to the lance, which is performed without any inconvenience or difficulty. The lance can only be used by a good horseman. When they were in full speed, and attacking individually, it was supposed they were in confusion, as is sometimes the case in the field of battle: hut the word of command being given, the men and horses were instantly in the greatest order. The training of these animals is most astonishing. The exercise ecricluded in threes, in a walk, trot, and canter. The Duke of York expressed himself highly pleased, and his entire approbation of the manner with which the whole was gone through, and then his Royal Highness retired. A number of the men of the ieth light dragoons, who have lately returned from France, and the 18th light dragoons, who have arrived from Ireland, were present to witness the exercise ; as we understand they are to be taught the same. An embarkation of Royal Marine Artillery took place during the last week in the River, to join the Expedition under Lord Exmouth. Four detachments were embarked on board bombs, and the rest are to be employed as a Rocket Bri;, - -ade, under the command of Captain C. F. Burton, and howitzer and mortar-boats. A series of medals, entitled the Wellington medals, on the plan of the Napoleon medals, is now in progress of execution. An investigation, under the superintendence of one of the Royal lk:bes, has recently commenced, it is said, on the conduct of an individual holding a superior situa tion in a national Institution not far from the metropolis; the management of which was not long since under the cognizance of Parliament. The English army, lately stationed in Sicily, has left an honourable memorial of its residence there, in a small building, erected just helmw the upper cone of /Etna, at the height of nearly 900 feet above the level of the sea. It contains three apartments, with a stable, and bears the name of the Casa Inglesa. Over the door is the fol lowing short but elegant inscription:—" ,Einam perlus trantibus has ades Britanni anno Santis, 1811." An article from Brussels states, that the Government of France has given orders (in addition to those already in force for completing the Departmental Legions) for raising a new levy of men, to increase the infantry of the Royal Guards one-fourth part. The recruiting, when the Guards is complete, is still to go on; and a new regi ment of three thuutand men is to he raised, to be called the Princess Caroline's; in compliment, no doubt, to the Duchess of Berry. The Paris Papers are silent upon this head ; they preserve the same unvaried solemn stillness on political subjects. But if we are to credit the Brus sels article, the French Government is beginning to lay the foundation of' a Military super -structure, which at some future period may rise out of the ruin, of the Na poleon remains, with a towering and formidable aspect. It is true, that at present the Allies circumscribe their views, check their daring, and impede their progress ; but the spirit of the nation is not extinguished. The same thirst for conquest, though lying dormant, is still in existence. We have been told of the approach of a large army of the Ashantees, a nation of the interior of Africa, toward our settlement at Cape Coast Castle. This event, from which, when the first accounts arrived, some serious ap prehensions were entertained, seems rather likely to lead to results of a favourable nature. The Ashantees are a powerful nation, and some years to visited the coast with an army of upwards of 100,000 men; but they have for several years been prevented from trading with Euro peans by the hostility of the Fantees, awl other nations residing in the neighbourhood. Their present expedition, therefore, by opening the path into the interior, may not imnrob ably be attended with very important com mercial advantages ; great quantities of gold and ivory being produced in the Ashantee ..ountry. May we not hope, that from this opening some additional means may arise of facilitating that great work, the progressive civi lization of the African race. An article from Vienna states therejection of the claims of •he Queen of Etruria to the Duchies of Parma and Tho Emperor of Russia has given another instance of go,luess ,'t I , eart, by attending the funeral of his pre ep,,,r.Prince Soltikoff, and walking in tho procession twxt to coffin.
