THE KING. [FROM THE DUBLIN CORRESPONDENT, AUG. 24.] GRAND CIVIC DINNER TO HIS MAJESTY. Yesterday his - MAJESTY honoured the LORD MAYOR and Corporation with his presence at dinner, in the magnificent apartment, lately con structed, at the rear of the Mansion House, for the purpose of this entertainment. The room, which is circular, is one hundred feet in diame ter. There is no support fOr the roof but the , external walls; and, according to a diagram constructed by the piesent Bishop of Limerick, the insecurity:of the roof is demonstrated.—At half-past six; as soon as the room was lighted, the Stewards entered, each bearing a wand, and each wand inscribed : with a letter, corresponding with a similar one upon the respective tables, to designate their several. stations. At a quarter past six, the seseral Corporations entered through a side door. In five minutes the whole 'were placed. The King's principal servant, ac cowpanied by four other State servants, in splen did liveries, next took up their stations immedi ately behind the splendid Throne which had been prepared for his Majesty. At seven o'clock the invited guests, who diti not form. his Majesty's taite, entered at another side door, and were im mediately accommodated by the respective Stewards. The Gallery was by this time com pletely filled with a fair proportion of the female rank and beauty of the metropolis, whose bril liant fancy dresses and towering plumes formed a splendid and fascinating coup &reel The whole company being arranged and seated (the two centre tables were appropriated ex clusively for the invited guests), his Ma jesty's approach was announced.---Exactly opposite to where -the King entered was a platform, raised about two feet and a half above the level of the floor. From the door at which his Majesty entered, until he ascended the Throne, the whole line was laid down with superfine scarlet cloth, which, with the Throne itself, and the table particularly appropriated for his Majesty and suite, produced a grand and magnificent effect. Tile moment his Majesty approached, the whole of the assembly rose, and a fine military band, placed in the gallery, struck up the grand national anthem of " God save the King." His Majesty walked up the middle of the room with true regal dignity, supported by the Lord Mayor, who conducted him to his Throne. Ills Majesty's suite, and the Digni taries most illustrious in rank, occupied the Royal table. Grace was said by the Lord Pri mate, when the whole of the guests resumed their seats. The Lord Mayor helped his Majesty to soup; but some persons on his Majesty's left wishing also to be helped, and being too far from the Lord Mayor, his Majesty, in the most con descending manner, took the ladle, and helped the Lord Lieutenant, Prince Esterhazy, the Lord Chancellor, and some others. When his Ma jesty had finished his soup, he took his glass, and immediately challenged the Lord Mayor, who sat upon his right, and the Lord Lieutenant upon his left; they immediately rose and bowed to his Majesty, who drank to both their healths. The King's table was laid out with a most superb service of plate. We perceived upon the King's right, the Lord Mayor, the Pri mate, the Archbishop of Dublin, the Arch bishop of Tuam, the Archbishop of Cashel, Lord Sidmouth, the Chief Justice, Lord Norburv, the Chief Baron, &c. On his left, the Lord Lieutenant, Prince Esterhazy, the Lord Chancel lor, the Marquis of Londonderry, Marquis Conyngham, Lord Orial, Sir David Baird, Lord Louvain, &c. The cloth being removed, the Lord Mayor rose, and proposed the health of " Our most gracious Sovereign, who had honoured this day his Corporation of the City of Dublin with his presence." This toast was received with the most enthu siastic applause. The whole company made one simultaneous movement, w ith their glasses charged high, and each individual most enthusiastically drank to the health and long life of his beloved Sovereign.—His Majesty at this moment rose, and having bowed in the most gracious manner to those about his own table, and to the Corpo ration and Visitors below him, and also to our fair countrywomen, who graced the cir cular gallery, sat down amidst a thunder of applause. The Band immediately struck up the National Anthem, and the whole vocal strength of the city, including Miss Stephens, Miss Cheese, Mr. Duruset, Mr. Bedford, and others, joined in a most delightful chorus, which appeared to give great satisfaction to his Majesty, as he kept time most accurately with his hand upon the table, and expressed his approbation more than once to I the Lord Lieutenant and the Lord Mayor. The ,Lord Mayor next gave, " the Duke of York and the Army," and, subsequently, " the Duke of Clarence and the Navy," both of which toasts were received with acclamation. The next toast included all the Members of time Royal Famiiy.—(Loud cheering.) Hia Majesty expressed to the Lord Mayor, who was his host upon this occasion, his delight and surprise at the splendid preparations that had been made for his reception. His Majesty's commendations were of such a nature as to call up the Lord Mayor to make his humble acknow ledgements to his Majesty. His Majesty, after having most condescendingly taken wine with all those immediately about him, intimated his wish to retire ; and the necessary arrangements being made, at a few minutes before ten o'clock, his Majesty stood up, and attended by the Lord Mayor, with all the Great Officers of State, proceeded down the centat of the room, all the company standing. The National Anthem was again played on his Majesty quitting the room. We much feared that the festivities of the evening would have been now broken up on his Majesty's departure, but in a minute or two the Lord Mayor returned, accompanied by Lord Sidmouth, the Marquess of Londonderry, time Marquess Conyngham, and most of the other Noble Peers who sat at his Majesty's table. The splendid Chair am which his Majesty sat, • was now removed from under the Canopy, and the Lord Mayor having removed his Chair into the place of that which had. been previ ously occupied by his Majesty,• the Marquess of Londonderry took his seat on the Lord Mayor's right, and Lord Sidmouth on his left. The Mar quis Conynghatn, the Chief Justice, and the other Chief Judges, took their respective stations, when the Lord Mayor rising, in the most digni fied manner, gave " The glorious 12th, 17th, and 23d of August," being the auspicious days of his Majesty's landing, public entry, and honouring the Corporation of the City of Dublin. This toast was hailed with rapturous applause, and it was many minutes before the Lord Mayor, although standing, could obtai❑ a hearing to announce the health of Lord Sidmouth, which wats drunk in a bumper, the whole company standing. Lord Sidmouth rose, and, in a very neat and emphatic speech, thanked the Lord Mayor and Corporation for the honour they had done him. The Lord Mayor next proposed the health of the Marquis of Londonderry. This toast was enthusiastically drunk, with three times three, the company standing. Contrary to usual custom, they remained standing, every eye being fixed with intense interest upon the Noble Marquis, who immediately rose, to gratify what. seemed to be the anxious expectation of the Assembly. The Noble Mar quess commenced, by congratulating himself that he was entitled to the proud designation of an Irishman, which he considered as one of his most honourable titles..--(The Noble Marquis wore several orders.)—lle had been present iu England and on the Continent, at many splendid fetes and dinners, but the present was the most delightful repast he had ever witnessed. The hearts of Irimien, on the present occasion, spoke out, and beat responsive to that of their be loved Monarch, who had honoured them that night with his august presence. If he could read the intentions of that benign and paternal heart, he would v enture to affirm, that this was not the last time that his friends and countrymen would have the happiness of seeing him among them. The object of his Majesty was that of making ALL his people happy ; and he congratulated himself, as an Irishman, on the good order that the people, from the highest to the lowest, had manifested on his Majesty's late public entry into this city. The Noble Marquis concluded a most eloquent and energetic address, by drink ing the health of the Lord Mayor, and the other Gentlemen assembled. This speech of the Noble Marquess being perfectly in unison with the conciliation which, we are happy to perceive, is the order of the day, and having excited a reasonable hope of his Majesty's revisiting us at no distant period, was received with immense applause. The Lord Mayor next gave the health of the Marquess of Conyngham, who returned thanks in a neat and appropriate speech. His Lord ship next gave the health of Sir Win. Curtis. Sir William stood up and returned thanks. lie expressed his gratitude for the very high and un exampled honour that had been conferred upon him. lie entreated that assembly, whom he wished to look upon, not only as countrymen, but as friends and brothers, to believe, that, how ever a portion of the Press of the Sister Country might attempt to oppose the Government and the Constituted Authorities, yet the great bulk of the people were true and firmly attached to the King and Constitution ; he w ished to God, that the disaffected in England could only witness the unanimity and enthusiasm with which the people of Ireland received their Monarch ; they would be convinced how futile and impotent any petty endeavours of theirs would be to shake the loyalty of the empire. Sir William sat down amidst much applause. The Lord Mayor then gave " The Mayor and loyal City of Cork." In returning thanks for which, Sir Anthou Perrier said, that though the City of Cork stood second in Ireland in point of rank, yet it did not yield, in the purest principles of loyalty and patriotism, to any part of his Majesty's dominions, and that it would ever be the pride and happiness of his life to boast that he had been, on more than one occa sion, the humble instrument of laying at the feet of his beloved Monarch, the loyal and affectionate attachment of his fellow-citizens. The Lord Mayor now rose, and gave empha tically, our most gracious Sovereign George the Fourth, THE KING or IRELAND. The band again played " God save the King," and the company separated. There were present, besides those already named, the Dukes of Leinster and Montrose, the Marquesses of Winchester and Anglesea, Earls Be!more l Enniskillen, Carrick, and Donough more, (with whom the King cordially shook hands as he entered the room,) Lords Mary borough, Doneraile, Mount-Charles, aHd Blay ney, the Provost, the of Limerick, &c.— Several harpers, who were introduced with ap propriate regard to our national character, per formed with exquisite feeling and taste, until a late hour. wad on the stage, where a chair was placed for him. The mu sician is an interesting - elderly man. Though deprived of sight, his countenance shone with good humour and gaiety. He was dressed in a red coat; and after " God save the King," he played several Irish airs, some of a humorous and some of a pathe tic nature. The former seemed most congenial witti the merry instrument which he commanded, and the droll turns of variation with which some of them were accompanied, made, the King laugh outright. His Majesty seemed much pleased with Talbot, and applauded him frequently. The Farce was over at half-past eleven, and, after a repetition of " God save the King," his Majesty left the Theatre, followed by the accla mations of the audience.

DUBLIN, AUG. 23.—The KING honoured the new Theatre here, last night, with his presence, for the first time. He paid a marked and handsome c-ampliment to his poor old friend, Sheridan, by commanding " The Buenna," and the farce of " Patrick's Day." These selections were also considered as a token of delicate respect towards the country, and as such they have added in no slight degree to the fervour of that attachment which is felt honestly, openly, and most sincerely for his Majesty in every circle of our society.— Long before five o'clock, every avenue to the Theatre was occupied by a very considerable crowd. In the pit, some ex tempore' battles were fought for places ; but they were not fol lowed by any material consequences. In both pit and gallery, and even in the upper boxes, the men generally took off their coats in order to relieve themselves from the intense heat of the Theatre. At half past seven precisely, the King entered his box. The pit rose en masse, waving hats, hands, and coats, and cry ing out with all their might, " Long live George the Fourth !" From every part of the Louse a continued peal of applause was kept up for nearly five minutes. His Majesty appeared af fected by his inability to express, by mere gesture, the nature and strength of the feelings which he experienced. Ile bowed to the audience in the most affable manner, and frequently placed his hand on his heart. The two first verses of " Ucd save the King" were inaudible on account of the cheering. The audience all joined in the chorus, rather guessing than knowing the proper time, for which they had no other guide than the di inns. The King had his chair put forward as near as possible to the front of the box, that he might rcnddr him self visible as extensively as possible. His Majesty sat down as soon as he had acknowledged the salutations of the eudienee. Miss Stephens sung the additional verse, which was composed in honour of his Majesty's arrival in Ireland. She was in charm , ing voice, and this verse, which seemed particularly to please the King, was encored in the most rapturous manner. The King wore theWindsor-Uniform and Ribbon of the Order of St.Patriele. ' The Duenna was very well performed. Between the Opera and the Farcel the celebrated Irish Piper, Talbot, was lcd for- THE SUN. SOLEN QUIS DICERE FALSUM AUDEAT? LONDON, MONDAY, AUGUST '27, 18'21. (Extract of a Letter from the Agenz. to Lloyd's et Constant nople, dated July 25.) " The Turkish fleet has arrived at Samos; they found the town and villages deserted, the inhabit ants supposed to have fled to the mountains. The affairswith Russia are near being brought to a crisis—it is now 7 days since the Russian ultima tum was sent into the Porte; an answer may be hourly expected. Our situation is one of a very anxious and critical nature. It is said that his Majesty's Ambassador has been invited to at tend at a conference with the Porte to-day." ,Extract of a Letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Smyrna, dated 19th July.) " The Racehorse brig of war has sailed, and we have now only The Medina sloop remaining. There are four French vessels of war in port; two have just sailed, one with the Consul's Lady and family on board, and another to convoy four French vessels through the Archipelago." :Extract of another Letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Smyrna, dated 17th July.) " A French frigate, corvette, and schooner en tered this harbour on the 12th with his Ma jesty's brig Racehorse. The Sniirna, FARMER, from London, has arrived outside our Castle, Nri ith the Odessa, ParrisoN, from Malta.—Advices have just been received, that the Turkish fleet, consisting of about SO sail of all sizes, has passed by Scio, on its way to attack the Island of Samos." We received this morning the Paris Journals of Thursday and Friday, which contain several articles of importance. The Russian Ultimatum was received by the Porte on the 18th of July, according to accounts from Constantinople of the 25th of that month, and as ten days had been allowed for an answer to be given, the decision of the Turkish Government could not be known before the 28th ; but its hostile nature was so confidently anticipated, that all the Russian sub jects had quitted Constantinople, and the few Russian vessels which remained in the harbour had hoisted the French flag, in order to be pro tected from seizure in case of war. The follow- ing are extracts : " PARIS, AUG. 23.—1 t is said, that the Duke Decazes, the Prince de Talleyrand, and several other important personages will return to Paris by the day of Saint Louis (Saturday last).— (Constitutionnel.) " A letter which we (Journal des Debuts) have this instant received from Marseilles, gives the following details : A vessel from Messina has brought the intelligence that the squadron from Tripoli, consisting of a corvette, three polacres, a brig, and a chebeck, has fallen into the hands of the Greeks. It is affirmed that a vessel arrived at Messinabrought the details of this combat, of which it was a witness. The squadron of Tripoli, being very inferior in force to the Greek fleet, wished to avoid an action, and sought refuge at Sa lonica. The Greeks employed a ruse, which was attended with complete success. They put before their fleet the two Turkish frigates which they captured on the 25th June, and appeared to be pursuing them. The Tripolitan squadron let these frigates approach without any distrust, and even advanced to protect their retreat. The two frigates contrived to get in their rear, and thus to place them between two fires. They then hoisted the flag of the Cross in stead of the Ottoman flag, and the Tripolitan squadron was easily disposed of. This event, which takes away from the Ottomans the hopes which they had founded on the aid of the Barbary Powers, will be very favourable to the cause of the Greeks. Tunis has no longer any thing but wretched barks, and the corvettes building there for the service of the Bey, are very far from being in a state fit for sea.' FRENCH FUNDS. Aug. 22, Five per Cents.

" Count Latour Maubourg, his Majesty's An bassador to the Ottoman Porte, is on the poi; of proceeding to Toulou, where a frigate is wail ing to convey his Excellency to Constantinople, " By accounts from Berlin of the 12th it seems there have been serious disturbances at Dantzic at the le;;in►;ing of the month between the Ct►ris tians and the Jews, when the military were obliged to interfere.

" FRANKFORT, AUG. 17.—1 t has been cur rently reported here since yesterday that the Porte has ordered the Baron Strogonoff to pro ceed to Odessa, and that it transmitted to him a declaration of War against Russia. Certain in telligence has been received that Prince DeLie trius, the brother of Alexander Ypsilanti, has arrived in the Morea, where he immediately as sumed the command in chief of the Greek troops, and addressed to them, on the 24th of July, a very energetic proclamation. " Auo. 18.—An extraordinary event has oc curred in the neighbourhood of Schoenbrunn. In the middle of a very heavy rain a prodigious quantity of insects fell, which are not only un known in these countries, but even in the cabinets of the learned. The insects are of the size of scarabei, -which they resemble a little in shape; they are covered with a species of shell, and wa ter appears to be their element, for they can only be preserved alive by plunging them into that liqu;d. It is supposed that they have been taken up in some distant region, and brought here by a water-spout. " We learn from Vienna that the Aulic Coun cil of War has ordered two of the frontier regi ments (a description of militia) to march imme diately to join the army in Dalmatia. Upwards of 30,000 men are assembled at this point ; be sides whom there are 40,000 stationed between Trieste and Laybach. " The last news from Greece come down to the 12th of July, and state that the Pacha of Berat has been defeated at Asta, after a sanguinary con flict, by the brothers llysco and the Suliotes, and that the Pacha himself has been made prisoner. The Turkish army in Epirus does not now exceed 7000 men ; they are retreating towards the defiles of Pindus, which gives great satisfaction to the Greeks, as they regard the total destruc tion of the Turkish army as certain, because these defiles are lined with their partisans. " The brave Ulysses (Odysseus) has again beaten the Pacha of Delvina, and taken possession of Larissa. The battle was obstinately contested, and scarcely a Turk escaped. " LEMBERG, AUG. 6.—Our Gazette publishes the following extract of a letter from the frontiers of Moldavia, dated August 1 : " There appeared suddenly before Dorna ) under the command of Jordaki, a body of 800 Greeks, who wished to force their passage on the Russian territory ; but the Colonel who com manded there threatened to repel them by force, and made preparations for that purpose. Dis concerted by this serious opppsition they laid down their arms and were conducted to the nearest lazeretto, from whence they will be marched in four columns to Bessarabia, after having performed the usual quarantine." The following are the chief contents of the Hatnhungh and Flanders Mails received this day : THE LATE QUEEN. CC STADE, AUG. '2o.—All preparations are made here to receive in a becoming manner the body of the Queen. Commodore Detjers, with his sloop, will sail to meet the Royal squadron, and to receive from it her Majesty's body. Ten Captains of the Hanoverian army go to Bruns hausen, and will attend it to Stade, where the coffin will be placed for the present in the church of Wilhadi, which is hung with black, upon a catOaque before the altar, till particular orders are received respecting its conveyance further on the journey. A battalion of the 6th regiment is ordered here from Itade to Brunshausen,to escort the Royal remains. " HA NOVEI, A cc. 17.—As soon as the mortal remains of her Majesty Queen Caroline shall ar rive at Stade they will he conducted by a mili tary detachment, commanded by an Officer, and accompanied by an Officer of the Court, who has been sent from this city, by way of Harburg, and through the districts of Luneburg and Celle, to the frontiers of the Duchy of Brunswick, where the coffin will be delivered to the Autho rities- of that country, to be conveyed to Bruns wick. " AUG. 20.—We have received the following authentic communication by way of Marseilles :-- Algiers, July 10.—The Day had began to arm his corsairs, bat the armament has been suspended. It is said to be on account of the numerous Greek ships in the Mediterranean, with which the Dey wished to have nothing , to do. The plague has broken out here, and seems unfortunately t o b e spreading. At this time the deaths are from 12 to 16 daily in the city.' " FRANKFORT, AUG. 19.—According to one account from Odessa, of 27th July, the Turks have again detained in the Bosphorus a packet boat, which had on board dispatches for Baron Strogouoff. These, and preceding accounts, which are by no means favourable to the conti nuance of peace, have had the effect of &press ingthe prices of the funds. We see already several young men who have joined the corps of Captain Dulberg, which is designed to assist the Greeks. They wear a red Cross on the breast : cloth has already been pur chastql for the service of this corps. The ac counts which we receive from time to time of the unparalleled cruelties exercised by the Turks on the Greeks are of such a nature that we hesitate to repeat them till they are fully authenticated, aid it is with grief we hear that the Greeks, in their vengeance, seem to be little inferior in cruelty to their enemies." SIR HARCOURT LEES.—The manner in which this learned and patriotic Baronet was receiNeil by his MAJESTY at the levee on Monday last, in Dublin, is a circumstance deeplY interesting and important to all supporters of the Protestan t Ascendancy. When Sir llAncounT entered the room, he -vas announced by the Lord in Wait' ing in a loud and emphatic tone; and when th e Baronet knelt in loyal reverence, his MAJEs'r" with a benignant smile and in a very impressis . e manner, uttered the following words :—" HARCOURT LEES, I hav e wait e d with great an d anxious impati en c e t o 'b e p ersona ll y acqu ainted L with you ;" and c on ti nue d t o t rea t th e Barone' , with gracious and marked attention. This in'* dent, we are assured, has made a strong imP re i b : sion in the city o f D u bli n , an d w ill probabli operate in the same manner th roug h ou t th j e Island ; for, as his MAJESTY had created I , n' FINGAL, (the head of the Roman Catholics in I re t i land,) a Knight of St. Patrick, it had been inferr % and predicted th a t Si r Il ancounT L EES , as avowed and uncompromising advocate of the F r° tl . testant body, against the present temporizing Fi t % dangerous system, wa s lik e ly t o experience but cool reception. Th e ver y f avoura bl e inal in i . e er : however, in which th e wor thy B aro n e t wa s ", l a caived, naturally e x cit e d a s t rong sensation; all has tended to ch e ck th e am biti ous h o pes of th e t , Papists, as well as to induce the trimming Pr °te b l s tants to veer round again. Th e t rut h MAJESTY is, as we are confidently assured, ard e l l disposed to re n d er ever y p oss ibl e serv ice to i t t l ' io land short o f sh a ki ng th e f oun d a ti o n of e National Faith and consequently endangering th i Sr security of the Throne. The reception of matt HARCOURT LEES is therefore not a, mere rna o „ of Court etiquette, but a ci r c um st a nce big • nt portant in relation to our happy establs° Church and State. i s that tr We have given in another part of our gaped an account of the disgraceful riot which oc curre d yesterday, after the funeral of tioNEY 31 , 0 , RANCIS. We believe the account which we I.ll.e:ve adopted is upon th e wh o l e a ccurate ; an". only to hope that the affair will be strictly 'M tigated by the proper authorities.
