High as public expectation has been raised by the prepara-
tions for this delightful fete, they were more than realised.
Forty large marquees were pitched in an extensive semi-circle,
on the beautiful lawn behind the Vice-Regal residence—the
Lodge itself, with its shrubberies, &c. forming the chord of the
arch. Each tent was laid out so as to accommodate about 20.
persons ; the tables were covered with a profusion of the
choicest viands, confectionery of the most tasteful description,
cold meats, fruits, ices, &c. with a most abundant supply of
champaign, and other wines of the best quality. Each tent
was numbered, and given in charge, to an Aid-de-camp or
other Officer of his Excellency's household,- who was to do
the honours of it. In the centre stood a tent of larger di-
mensions, capable of containing forty persons, for the accom-
modation of his Excellency, and those whose rank entitled them
to be of his more immediate party. Around the area were
displayed the flags of the different nations of the globe ; while
al3,9ve all, and proudly conspicuous, the Royal Standard of
Britain floated from the centre of the grand portico to the
Lodge—" Velut inter ignes Luna minores,"—supported by two
Union jacks, which waved from each angle of the building.
Festoons of evergreen, and artificial flowers connected the dif-
ferent tents, flag-staffs, &c.; and the whole had a most superb
and pleasing effect. The fine bands of the 23d and 52d Regi-
ments were placed within the area, and played some charming
pieces of music ; a number of bugles belonging to one of the
light infantry corps were judiciously placed among the trees at
some distance, from whence they were heard to the greatest
advantage ; a band of Pandeans also contributed to enliven the
scene. A large temporary building was likewise erected for
the use of the dancers, having an elevated floor chalked ; the
roof, pillars, &c. decorated with evergreens and artificial flowers.
—The company began to arrive a little after three, and the
carriages continued setting down the guests, without intermis-
sion, until past five o'clock, by 'which time nearly-800 persons
had reached the festive scene. The company were received
by his Excellency with that dignified urbanity and delightful
frankness for which he is so distinguished. On a given signal
the band struck up "The Roast Beef of Old England ;" and in
a few minutes, and without the slightest confusion, every tent
was filled with company. A signal was given by a rocket, on
which every glass was filled to the brim, and the health of his
Majesty was drank by the whole company standing, followed
by nine hearty cheers, and a salute of 21 guns from the artil-
lery stationed at a proper distance in the Park, the bands
playing " God save the King." The next toast was " The Lord
Lieutenant, and Prosperity to Ireland," drunk also with rap-
turous acclamations, the bands playing " Patrick's Day." Soon
after, the appearance of Mr. Simon's band of violinS gave
the signal for dancing, and a number of quadrille sets were
speedily formed. The dancing was kept up without intermis-
sion till past eight, when the company began to break up,
highly gratified with the tout ensemble of the day. Tea, coffee,
and other refreshments were provided within the Lodge for
those who wished to partake of them.—An immense number of
well-dressed persons witnessed the gay scene from the Park,
among whom the greatest order and decorum prevailed.

KELVEDEN, JULY 19.—1 n honour of his Majesty's Coro-
nation the village of Kelveden, on the Colchester-road, was
brilliantly and tastefully illuminated. In the morning, meat
apd beer were distributed to the poor inhabitants, to regale
themselves at their own houses ; and the day and evening were
spent with the greatest unanimity and joy.
NEAT H.—'l Coronation of his Majesty King George IV.
was celebrated here with every demonstration of loyalty and at-
tachment. The bells were rung at intervals through the day ;
many of the respectable inhabitants of the town and neighbour-
hood dined together at the Ship and Castle, on this joyous oc-
casion. Several appropriate toasts were drank, and the greatest
harmony and conviviality prevailed. In the evening there was
an illumination. Gnoll Castle was most conspicuous in the
rejoicings. Flags were displayed on the towers of this magni-
ficent mansion from an early hour. At one o'clock fifty-nine
discharges from cannon (the age of his most gracious Majesty)
rent the air, and in the evening it was most brilliantly illumin-
ated. G. R. surmounted by a crown in variegated lamps, in
the centre of the front, had a very beautiful effect. The worthy
proprietor, Henry Grant, Esq., treated his labourers and work-
men with a good supper, after which they drank his Nlajesty's
health in good old ale. At sunset the discharge from the can-
non was repeated, and the band which played all the evening to
the dancers on the lawn, added to the hilarity of the scene.
REIGATE.—The morning of the day of the coronation of
his Majesty was enlivened at Reigate by the ringing of bells ;
and in the afternoon the inhabitants sat down to a sumptuous
dinner, provided by Mr. Coulstode, at the Swan Inn. The
Chair was ably filled by Thomas Burt, Esq., assisted by S. E.
Gale, Esq. The most loyal toasts were drank with enthusiasm,
and the evening passed with the utmost gaiety, mirth, and
cheerfulness.

STANSTED PARK, SUSSEX.—The Rev. Lewis Way gave
his domestics and workmen an hospitable dinner of good old
English fare, with a plentiful supply of the distillation from Sir
John Barleycorn, which made the Welkin ring, on their Mo-
narch being given, the Church and State as by law established,
their amiable Donor ; the former was cheered in four times
four, the latter in three times three. Fire-works and transpa-
rencies added a peculiar beauty to the fascinating 'scenery :
music and the rural groups of dancers had a most pleasing ef-
fect. As this happy meeting began in harmony, so it closed, and
the peaceful villagers returned to their respective cottages with
joy and gratitude.
ASTON CLINTON.—An interesting scene of loyal festivity
was exhibited, on the day of his Majesty's Coronation, at the
village of Aston Clinton, where upwards of 700 persons partook
of the hospitality of the Viscount Lake. A fine ox was roasted,
and distributed to the poor families, according to the number
in each, with a proportionate quantity of ale. An excellent
dinner was given, at the Bell Inn, to upwards of sixty
Yeomanry, with some Gentlemen who were happy to join
in the loyal feelings of the day, and attended by an ex-
cellent band of music until the evening, when it was claimed
by an equally numerous party of ladies, who were assembled
to tea and dancing. The public houses of the village
were opened to the tradesmen and their families. The follow-
ing day was given up to rural sports ; and, in the evening, up-
wards of 300 of the young people, and the old, who were made
young, kept up dancing on the lawn, at the Noble Viscount's,
until a late hour. Bonfires and illuminations were general on
both evenings, and the humblest cottage made its attempt to be
splendid. The whole was a scene of uninterrupted harmony.
CEILEORTON.—Four sheep and a sufficient quantity of ale
were distributed among the poor ; the dinner was served up in
the paddock of Sir George Beaumont, Bart. and presented a
most gratifying spectacle.
