HIS MAJESTY'S BIRTH-DAY.

YESTERDAY MS MAJESTY completed the 66th
year.ofhis age. His Birth-day was, as usual, cele-
brated with much joy. The morning was ushered
in by the ringing of Bells. The Flags and Standards
of the United Kingdom were displayed from the
Tower, the different Public Buildings, and all the
Churches in the Metropolis. At one o'clock, as
many guns were discharged in St. James's Park as
His MAJESTY has attained numbers of years, and
the sixty-one guns on the Tower Wharf were dis-
charged in honour, of the day. Soon after nine
o'clock, the DUKES Of YORK, CUMBER LAND, KENT,
and CAMBRIDGE, arrived at the Queen's House to
breakfast, and congratulated their Royal Parent
on the happy return of the day. Each of the PRIN.
C ESSES presented His MAJESTY with a piece of sil-
ver plate made by their own ditedion. The Fa-
culty deeming the fatigue of attending the Draw-
ing-room too much, prevented His MAJESTY from
attending. During the morning, an immense crowd
assembled from the Queen's House to the Palace,
and waited with great anxiety to see His MAJESTY.
About three quarters past twelve, HER MAJESTY,

the PRINCESSES, and the DUKE Of CAMB R 1 DGF,, went

from the Queen's Hue to St. James's Palace, and
in a short time after, previous to the PRINCESSES
dressing for the Drawing-room, they, with the
PRINCESS CHARLOTTE Of WALES, and the DUKE
of CAMBRIDGE, appeared at the windows near the
private entrance of the Royal Family, to gratify the
curiosity of the numerous populace.

The company began to arrive at the Palace
soon after twelve o'clock, but the Drawing room
being expetled to be extremely crowded, and the
heat of the weather excessive, the LORD CHAMBER.
LAIN gave orders that the doors of the Council
Chamber (where the Drawing-room is held) should
not be opened till HER MAJESTY was ready to enter
it, for the purpose of keeping it as cool as possible.
On account of this regulation, the company con-
tinued coming till every avenue leading to the room,
even to the bottom of the principal staircase, was
crowded, and the heat was so great, that several
Ladies fainted, and some of the female speetatbrs
Were carried out apparently lifeless.,

At half past two o'clock, HER MAJESTY and the
PRINCESSES being ready to hold 'the Drawing-room,
the doors were thrown open; and HER MAJESTY and
the Royal Family entered the centre door.; and their
entrance being announced by the Earl of DART-
MOUTH, (as Lord Chamberlain) by the waving of
his wand of office, Sir W. PARSONS, who was at-
tending in an adjoining room behind the Throne
with a selea band, gave direaions for them to strike
off the perfotmance of the Birth-day Ode, the music
of which was seleaed by Sir WM. PARSONS, at the
express command of His MA J ESTY, from the works
of HANDEL. The Overture wa3 from Attila. A
Song followed, from the Opera of Parthenope, by
Master ROGERS, of the Chapel Royal. A Song
from Porur, by Mr. BARTL EM AN, and one by Mr.
NIELD, from Parthenope, were sung in their usual
chaste style. The Ode concluded with a Chorus
taken from Atalanta. The Band was very ably led
by Mr. DANCE ; Mr. KNYVETT presided at the
Piano-forte, and the whole was conduEled by Sir W.
PARSONS. The windows of the Council Chamber
were kept open.
HER MAJESTY took her station between the se.
cond and third windows,.to receive the compliments
and congratulations of the Nobility on the happy
return of the day. The PRINCESS of WALES stood
on the left hand of HER MAJESTY, and the PRIN-
CESSES followed, according to their ages, and the
Princess SOPHIA of GLOUC ESSES after then► ; the
beautiful, accomplished, and amiable assemblage
was truly fascinating. The. Foreign Ambassadors
paid their congratulatory respeas to HER MAJESTY
and the PRINCESSES. Lord EL L E NEORO UGH was
a considerable time in conversation with HER MA-
JESTY, who appeared in excellent health and spirits,
and had a smile upon her countenance during the
whole of the time. PR INC ESQ ELIZABETH entered
into conversation with a number of the female No-
bility. The DUKE of CAMBRIDGE appeared to ad
for his Royal Father. After each person had pnid
their respects to HER MAJESTY and the PR IN.
CESSES, his Royal flighness entered into familiar
conversation with them. There were present be-
