is to say, all the gay world—in courtesy so called.
The day was so beautiful that it could hardly fail to
draw forth all the landscape-loving and the social—
the admirers of green fields, and the admirers of new

and the exquisites ventured out—almost for the first
time this season; the betel-An' hovering over the
heads of the gay crowd, mistaking artificial flowers
for real ones ; and the exquisite, fluttering about, hic

fascinating.

Yesterday, the LORD CHANCELLOR, the Duke of
DORSET, and Earl CATHCART had audiences of his

Yesterday, their Royal Highnesses the Prince and
Princess of DENMARK received, for the first time since
their arrival, the visits of some Ambassadors and their
Ladies; among whom were Count and Countess
MUNSTER, Baron and BaronessWzarnza, Baron and
Baroness STURNUELD, Count MANDELSLOH, &c.
