Mr. Bloodsworth made the last eight shots in two minutest

1 The demeanour of her Majesty as she passed be-
tween Kensington and St. James's ensured the general appro-
,hation and respect of the assembled multitude. It was affablelii
and dignified—remote alike from a haughty indifference 'to -1
popular applause, and a too eager enjoyment of the intoxicat-
ing draft.
The Duchess of Northumberland, we are informed,
has had the honour of an audience since the accession. The -,
reception of her Grade was most cordial and affectionate. :-

Ithe Queen yesterday, at St. James's Palace, having been, it
'is understood, re-appointed Master of the Horse. In conse-
quence of the demise of his Majesty, his Lordship's grand din- ~1
ner, which was to be given to-day, has been postponed sine die.
A special messenger was despatched by the steam-
packet
to Hamburg yesterday, on his way to the Russian Ca- ,•
pital, with despatches from Count Pozzo di Borgo for the Em-
peror, with the intelligence of the demise of his Majesty.
The report is already in circulation of its being the
intention of her Majesty and the Royal Household to occupy
the new Buckingham Palace, us soon as the few additions are •
made, requisite to its completion. yNre believe the report to be
premature.
i His Hanoverian Majesty is by birth the fifth, and,
iin survivorship, the eldest surviving son of King George the
Third and Queen Charlotte. He served in more than one
‘;
campaign during the late war under Marshal Treyta and L_
General Walmoden, and he had rank and a regiment in the
Hanoverian service. ~
/Her Majesty the Queen of Hanover, in addition to ,
the Crown Prince, late Prince George of Cumberland, is
mother of seven Princes and Princesses by her two first bus-
*
bands The Queen has also several grandchildren, the pro- ,
44
pgeny of her son, Prince F rederick of Prussia, and two daugh-
-4
hers the Duchess of Anhault Dessau, and the Princess Albert '
4 '
of Schwazbourg. It was at the Congress of Vienna, in 1815,1
Ithe year of her marriage, that her father received the title of;
Grand Duke, and was invested with the right of voting at the:
'.• Diet of the Empire. Her Majesty's niece, the Princess Marial
'Theresa of Tour and Taxis, married, in 1812, Prince Esterhazy,l
the Austrian Ambassador. . i
Lord Walter Butler, second son of the Marquis of
Ormond, a Lieutenant and Captain in the Guards, is the
Officer who is fortunate enough to obtain Brevet rank by
.'• having been on duty at the Palace on the accession to they
throne of the Princess Victoria.
