THE QUEEN'S BIRTH.DAY:

Yesterday being the day set apart for The celebra-
tion •of her MAJESTY'S birth-day (who completed
"her. 65111 year on the Igth of May last), the same
was obsryed with the usual demonstrations of joy.
s4ras announced,. early in the morning, by a ge-
neral ringing of bells, and the flags and standards of
the United Kingdom were displayed from the steeples
of t'lle different churcheS, the Tower, and other pub-
lic buildings, and the ships in the harbour.—The
Guards on duty wore their new cloihing.upon the
occasion ; the band wore their.., stateliyeriei, and
attended in the Palace-yard to play occasionally, and
salute any of the Royal Family who came in state.
Previous to the guard marching off from the parade
in the morning, they were inspthed .by the Dukes
of YORK, CAMBRIDGE; and GLOUCESTER, the Com-
manders of the three Regiments of GuarkN, And Sir
DAVID DUNDAS, the Commander in Chief; and
bands belonging tOr't he three regiments in state live-
ries; tha't of the 3d Regiment's band was entirely
new for the occasion, and the most eb-gant weever
saw, starlet and gold of a modern make, a present
feom their Commander, the Duke of GLOUCESTER.
The addition of the three bands in state-liveries was
in exieetation of the presence of his. Excellency the
PERSIANAMBASSADOR ; and in addition to this pre-
paration, a Regiment of the Life Guards was mus-
tered on-the parade with their band of trumpets, and
a kettle-drum. The marching off of the Guards was
detained till eleven riclock, waiting for his Excellen7
cy ; whose non-attendance, we understand, was dc-
casioned by indisposition. The bands of the ist
and 2d Regiments marched With the guard to St.
Tames's"Palace, and the band of the 3d Regiment,
with the. guard td the Queen's Palace, where they
played—" God Save the King," and several mar.
tiat pieces.

.At one o'clock, a double royal salute was fired by
small cannon in St. James's Park, and -the 61 can--
nOits on the Tower Wharf were diScharged. The
houses in St. James's-street, as is general upon these
uccaSions,,were. crowded with spectators, to view the
company going to Court.
The Parliament not. being yet sitting, and the-
weather, being unfavourable,, there was,
.from these
causes, a considerable drawback upon the effe6t of
the scene, but still the splendour was great, and ne-
ver was loyalty 'more conspicuously displayed than
on this occasion.
Soon after nine o'clbek, their MAJESTIES; the
PEiNCESsES, the. Dukes of YORK, CLARENCE„ CUM-7:
BERLAND, KENT,'SUsSEX, CAMBRIDGE, and GLOU-,
CESTER, and Princess CHARLOTTE of WALES, break-
fasteCtooether, at the Queen's Palace. •In the,
course of the morning, the Bishops of SALISBURY
anci .BANGOR, and a number of dignified Clergy,
paid7.-thet respeCts to their MAJESTIES upon the
happy occkr ion.
About ball-v.lst ti..-elve o'clock, her MAJESTY, "
•PritICOSieSAIJ9IgsTA, _ELIZABETH, and CHAR-
LoTTiof WA LEs, left the QUEEN'S Palace, escorted
by a party,of the Life Gbards, and proceeded to the
apartments of 'the I),:alie cif. Cutnberlaod, 'in St.
J:urr;.N'i 'Palace, where her MAJESTY dressed, in con-
sequence of that part Cf the Palace destroyed by fire
ot being rebuilt. The Duke, ofCUMI3ERL AND ,
re-
ceived them at his door, 'attended by his- upper. ser-
vants in fuli dreses, and the -servants in stiite

ries, • ,A surnittunus cold was provided C 0.,:
her MAJESTY and the PRINGESMS; after partalsing
of vehich, iler MAJESTY and PRiNOis -dre6sed iri
