Tisk request was instantly comoli;d with, ex cept by t tv6 •or three persons, though it evidently excited some little disconteut.. The Renter, howeee'r, ekpres . s . - ed her belief, that, atter the prt'sent Week, her Majesty wouh± not object to the public rentaining in her presence. After her Mo3esty had drank the water, ,Miss Brownlow, Bang hter of Colonel' Brownlow, of Broisk.street, in titi's city, had the honour of being presented r to tier by her Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence, by whose desite the. piling Lady was in waiting. Her Majesty teceived her with the greatest kindness and affa bility. The Earl and Countess of Corke were also present, and were honoured by her Majesty's no tice. The Royal Pasty then returned .to the house of her Majesty in Sydney-place: At two o'clock, her Majesty again left her house in a carriage and four, accompanied by the Princess Elizabeth, the Duke of Clarence, anti the Countess cif llchyster, and proceeded to take her usual airing . by Landsdwen c re scent, and Sion Hill, and about half-past three o'clock the Royal Party returned. Saturday Erening.--At the accumstomcd hour, this morning, the Queen again visited the Pump Room, accompanied by the Princess Elizabeth. His Royal fliOstiess the Duke of Clarence was ,not or the party. Her Majesty was attended to the Room by the Countess of Ilchester find Col. Jl , shrow, and was received there by the Hon. Aliss Broderick, Dr. (.- - sibbes, James kitson, Esq. the Mayor, and the Masters of the Ceremonies. Her Majesty appeared in excellent health and spirits, and again expressed her opinion of the efficacy of the water. At present, however, she only takes one of the smaller glasses, and has signified her. intention of not increasing this quail thy, without:the advice of Sir Henry HallOrd, who. is expected here incite course of a day of two, when it is probable that she Will take it Is% ice every day, The Royal party did not re.;, main wore (ban j-en,minutes in the Phmp Roots, and then returned' threctly to Sydney-place to breakfast. in the course of the inorniug numbers of the y, &e. left their pangs at tire' Queen's house.

The Chess of her Majesty, whenever she appears in •public, is, invatiably„,a plain suit of bona'-szeen mourning, %rimmed with crape, a long black silk cloak, and a bonnet of the same Material, trim med also with crape. Her Royal Highness the Princess Elizabeth is dressed in the same tmob , erosive costume; with the addition of a black clot pelisse; anti a plume af Ithick..ostrich feathers tier bonnet.

THE THEATRE.—Love in a Village introduced a new Performer at Drury-Lane Theatre on Sa turday, who bad never appeared before itr His name is nut known. He pe►:formed the part of Young Meadows. Being wholly new to 'ppblie life, it would be illiberal if we spoke harshly of his performance, considering the effect of tinkity and the itnprovement that results from practice.— He seems to possess musical taste, as well as a good voice, and has a tolerable -person. As to his act ing, we shall say nothing!at present.—Miss BYRNE was the Rosetta. It was by no means.her hap piest effott in acting or singing. I~iGU .AND BALL.---We are informed that on Wednesday night there was a Highland Ball, iimst numerously and respectably :Attended, at the Freemason's Tavern, for the benefit of a Scotch Piper, of the paillC of ill' BETH , who, among of . . N ailing on the generosity of his countrymen, has the mi,fortnne of being• blind ; and has likewise a large infant family. Thts Ball bad been appoint ed to be bell on the .12th tilt. but the late afflict itig event, which for a while paralized every so cial !venlig, occasioned the postponement of the same to the day above-named. We understand that the appearance of from three to four hundred people, dressed in the melancholy garb of the day, had a singular effect. We learn too, with plea sure, that the worthy object of the assemblage will derive considerable benefit - from the l a udable exertions made in his favour 00 this occasion.

OusEnvaatoss.—Ladies who do not attend U the strict letter of the Court Order, wear alternately stripes gauze, grey crape; and black silk or bornhazeen, trim:llo with muslin flounces with broad hems. Cypress gauze is much worn, and is infinitely more becoming than crape. This, however, we can venture to assert, that though the sug gestions of fancy, or the more powerfnl pleadings of requi site economy, may inflounce the 'node of mourning - worn by our fair countrywomen, yet every heart experiences the same degree of sadness and regret, and has truly that within " which passeth show." Ear pendants of jet are worn of a prodigion3 length, reach ing aboVe half way down the throat. Brooches of jet, in the form of crescents reversed, are most prevalent.

Mr. TUC/LINTON 'then fiddressed the meeting, and observktl, that, the late melancholy occurrence which had plunged the country in universal grief, might well impose silence ; but when he saw other counties and . places were moving Addresses of Condolence, he hI: that ,the County of Surrey, itt ‘vhich the Illustrious Pa'r had taken up their resi dence, ought not to e hold back in expressing their •sense of the calamity. They had assembled, how ever, more to shicw their own feeling than froni any desire to renew a painful subject, which might again probe the setisibilitY of tie Royal Family. The Honourable Areinber concluded by moving-an apprOpriate Address to the Prince Re gent, in which the Meeting expretsed a hope that his Royal Ingliness 'would derive same eonsola tion from the public sympathy, the interest the country has taken - in the It:clam:holy event, awl the affecrion manifested to Lis Royal Highness and (.-.t.1 y brauch of the Royal Fatuity.
