LON DON,

FRIDAY, MAY 17. 1816.

We give an account of the Queues Drawing-
Room, which took place yesterday. With the ex-
ception of the spectacle presented during the visit
of the Royal Sovereigns, the Parks have not for
ninny years displayed such a crowded and splendid
apprao mice. At three o'clock the carriages, which
had set down their company at the Queen's
Paine, formed a iing of two deep round St.
James's Park, extending up Constitution-hill,
mod to a consiolerahle ilimaraoce down Piectdilly.
The middle of the road between these two lines,
particularly along Constitution-hill, was left open
for carriages going to and coining Gnus the
P,ltice. Of those which were in waiting, the
boxes, and the footmen's hoards behind were filled
with females elegantly dressed, who availed them-
wives of this mode of being carried into the joy-
ful scene, safe from the pressure of the crowd.
The side-paths along the whole of this line were
filled with elegantly dressed people, of whom there
was a deep row even on the inside of the Green
Park, nixie' the whole line from the gate at Hyde
Park corner, round to the iron gate at the entrance
of the Queen's walk, from St. James's Pork.
The Stable-yard was with difficulty passable during
the whole of the day.

In the 'mimed official accnuats of the Army Ex-
traordimaries laid before the Haase of Counnons,
there is a sum of 1,e52/. 2s. which appears to have
been paid for two Field Marshal's bawl's, for the
Duke of WELLINGTON and his Royal Iligliness
the Duke of YouK.—lt is somewhat extraordinary,
that the name of Field Marshal the Duke of WRIe
LINGTON should thus stand before that of his
Royal Flightless the Duke of Yoak.—The printer
probably settivd the (location of precedency be-
tween these Commanders, according to his idea of
their respecti.e merit., as the Duke of YORK is
not only of the blond royal, but is also a Field
Marshal se to the Duke of WELLINGTON.

A Letter from Dover, dated May 15, says—
" Twenty-tive vessels arrived here yesterday even-
ing, with the whole of the 13th Light Dragoons,
and remaining part of the 14th lluiwars, and some of
the Royal Waggon Train, after a tine passage of four
or five hours from Calaiii The horses and men
were in very tine condition; they all lauded early
this morning in perfect safety, and proceeded im-
mediately on their march to Canterbury."

It is au account of all the foreign corn wart-

to any thing like one per cent. on the comnuiption
