There were a number of Noble Families absent from various causes; we regret to state that indis position and family losses prevented the attendance of some of the houses of first rank and consequence in the kingdom. The most distinguished equi pages were those of the Marchioness of LANSDOWN, a new landau, painted a rich crimson, with her ser vants in rich state liveries. The LORD MAYOR and the SHRRIPTS, the Marchioness of STAFFORD, and Lady CIRARLOTTIL GOIFFR, were in elegant chairs, with three foootrhen before each, in splendid liveries. The Marchioness of Ss tnnsuat, and the Ladies G. and E. Cecil., were also in elegant chairs, with three footmen each. The Countess Gaosvanoa, Countess of Caisnens Lady E. Pam, Lady MULGRAVE, Mrs. IL WALPOLE, and Mrs. BRAVISONT, were in state chairs, and their servants in splentbd liveries. Her Trimree, as usual, had a select party in the e ening, and received the cony plinients of her friends and family. The dresses were extremely rich, and of velvet or liens cloth. The following, worn by Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Vona. was the most admired : evening dress, a grass-green velvet round dress, richly trimmed with lace sod dia monds; head-dreas to correspond, richly-adorned with diamonds and emeralds. Indeed, there was no variation in form, it only consisted in the em broidery• or trimming. The prevailing misers were sky-green, azure blue, pure, damson, ameranthas ; and scarlet velvets sad cloths were most general and most appropriate for the season. The Ladies had for merly a double duty to perform, to choose their Court-dresses to suit the sombre light of noon and the brilliant illumination of the evening; but being new confined to day-light, move variety ie. introduced, more delicacy of work, and more dis play of taste, and it is not who will dazzle most, but who will have the finest lace, or the most in genious embroidery, or the finest gold draperies. Swansdo sn, in some of t::e tnmtui igs, had a very pretty effect, bat crape was too light for the seaao.i. Court head-dresses - nesse rasp the lappet alai the ostrich plume, either surmounted with dia twonds or pearls, or a bandeaa or liars of either, hold their place. The plumes worn by the Royal Fain ily yesterday were u moldy . tine ; . those of the Duchess of :Ho N•raose,,Marehione:.s of DovrN sin as, Lady HARRIFT DRUMMOND. Mini Mrs. PANTON, Mrs. MtlikY. and Lady BORIAG- Rot were mkt iu adniiration. The number worn was from scvsti to eleven. The Geatleafen'S Court dress ad niti of as little varlets as the 7adity ; the fashion at a sword-knot, of the cutuliinithr: . of co lonrs in an embroidery, form the only Amor.— There were a number of very handsome em broidered writs, but none that s displaved more taste and elegance than that mini by Mr. Slum's NGION• Uniforms universally previiled. Yesterday the Duke of YORK rite I grand din ner, in honour of the celehation of Her Mansrr's birth-day, to Colonel GORDON,' his . Secretary, the whole of his Staff, and a number of others. • Yesterday the Duke of MONTROSE gave a grand dinner to Their MAJEsTits' Attendants and others. The Princess of WALcs ar:ived yesterday about twelve o'clock, at Lord SHEFFIELD'S house in Prirvy Gardens, from Blackheath ; where Her Royal Highness dressed for Conrt, and was accompanied to St. James's Palace by Lady SHEFFIELD.

INDIA. BOMBAY COURIER, suss We are daily receiving accounts of the effects of the late gales, which seem to have prevailed with unusual violence along the whole extent of the Coast to the Southward of this place. hs extra ordivary violence at Mangalore appears in the following extract of a letter from that place. dated 31st May : " We had surh a hurricane here on the 44th, 45th, and part of the glith, as has not been experieuced for 33 years. Every house here. except Messrs. Komi's. Read's, and Reeves's, is blown dawn ; many lives are lost ; fire brigs are stranded within xfi miles of this. I ran in the Court House, and keep open table for 14 at . present, and every thing is in the grratest confusion, as yoit may sup paw :—we are do.ng all we can to save a Por tugni"e ship, bound to Lisboa Nam Goa. The Court Rowe is just now an Hospital and Bar racks foe one butta i on of Sepoys, a stable for 9 horses, a place hlkArins,listi Barrack for 14 or 15 Europeans," iko..lilm. n Extract of a letter from Goa, dated June 7,1807: —" Tie Portuguese frigate is entirely lust; and in addition to this misfortune, we have to lament the loss of the register ship, Ceylon. This dreadful dis aster happened last month, about 15 milesen this aide Mangalore; the late Chancellor, and several of the crew, are said to have perished. The eargd of the Ceylon was valued at 600,090 rupees. Two Portuguese brigs met a similar fate, and one brig drove iuto a river it Salsette, ciistnasted." The Cadisclis, elbank,Ctentberland, Ferrer, and 'levy Addington, Kirkpatrick, sailed from Ma dras, fur Penang and Cl ina...the loth August, der convoy of His Majesty's ship, Sir Francis Drake. The Ceylon, Hudson, 'and Walpole, Sandi lamb, sailed from Madras, for Bengal, the 16th lust September. The Metcalfe, hacke, sailed from Madras for Bengal, the 16th last September. Ministers have agreed upon a Proclantatiet, to be published and sent off with 'all possible meld to the Commander of our squadron off the Tam to be distributed by all pourable means, offering to ell the people of Portugal, who are disposed to Italie that country, an unlimited number of transports to convey them and their property to the Bratils.--i Instructions are also to be seat to all our other squadrons that may fall in the way, to reader every possible assistance in carrying the wishes of Go vernment into execution. This measure was adopted on Friday Lit, and may, perhaps, here been suggested by the report which teethed town, that day, of Insurrections at Liaboi. 'That rumour, however, as we stated yaltals day, still rests upon the sole authority of an Ame rican Captain, said to have arrived at Cork, co the 10th, arid is discredited in the city. The Russian Fleet in the Tagus is emptied shortly to surrender. The latest accounts from India are dated Cal cutta, August 13 ; Bombay, Sept. 1; and Madras, Sept. .20. As we stated yesterday, at the date of the latest departures, perfect tranquillity prevailed Fn the Beitildi possessions in that quarter of the world. The rains had been abundant, and, from :the appearance of the season, large crops of rico, Av. were expected to alleviate the calamities of the preceding season. The Austrian Waster, Count STAIIIEKSTRO, obtained his psesperts on Friday, and will shortly take his departure for Paris. The late storm has done great damage on the coast. Some phrtieulars are given iu the lint pap. The Scotch Geer; will fonts part of the Expe dition debug out at Portsmouth. The Scrutiny commeuces, this day, in Cord waineni' Ward.

Flag of Truce will sail from Dover, as aeon to the enrol will permit, for Rotterdam, with Mr. Cure and his family, the period of that Gentle. usau's parole being nearly expired.. The Priocess Amelia, arrived in 49 days from Jamaica, states, that the yellow fever broke oat at Port Royal while the lay there. The Surgeon and eight of the crew died while there and on her pos tage to England. Letters from the Mee, of 44 guns, Captain WOLFE. brought by a chasm maree, her prize. laden with wheat, captured close in with the French toast, dated the oth instant, state, that she was all well at that period, after experiencing the of the late tremendous stortniumar Isle Gres, offich she earned away her fare-topsail-yard, and split her sails to pieces, but fortunately weathered the shoal off that island, and got into safe anchorage. The French people of the island came off with fresh stock, when the weather moderated, which they sold very cheap, viz. a fine large calf for Sus. ooly. and other things . in propertron,- so greet is the scarcity of money in that part of France. The Sally, WILLIS, arrived at Plymoath, spoke on the dyth ult. the Anagram, of New York, sine days from Bristol, Cape St. Vincent N.W. It leagues. Same day spoke the Manchester, of and from Philadelphia, her Cadiz, and ranee arrived, as Capt. Ili sari, of the lealwas, arrived at Dublin, informs him.
