HER. MiTISTrs BIRTH-DAT;

our mac gracious QUOIN completed her sixty.
fnorth year, on the 19th day of last May, the celebra-
tion of which, as a national feitival, has always been
put t,f, ;ill the 18th day of January following ; the
oth of May being too near his MAJESTY'S birth-day ,
to afford encouragement to the manufacturers, artists,
and other persons generally employed upon those oc-
eacons. The celebration of 'her MAJESTY'S birth-
day, which took place yesteiday, must, like all others,
be considered as the commencement of the London
season ; as it in some degree forces the Nobility and
persons of distinction to the metropolis, at that sense;
for the purpose of going to Court to pay their re,.
spects to her MAJEsTY upon the occasion.
Although the cold was more severe than any day
this winter, numerous parties. of fair damsels, very
elegantly dressed, if dressed tome of then could be
caged, considering the severity Qf the weathei, began
to ai,emble in the rooms of the Palaceleading u the
i)ra,,,,,ng_room, about ten o'clock), and waited, with
„ally:s but patient expectation, to behold the
.coul.
r 11,4 as they passed, till twelve, until which houtovem
tbe attendants upon the Roal Fain4y aid not arrive.
We were sorry to observe some-of then!. Were refused
admittance, although provided with tickets of admis-
sion' on account of being, as well as some gentlemen,
dressed in black ; as it is. contrary to Court etiquette to
admit any person so dressed upon-the days of the ce-
lebration of their Iktiitsras' birth ; for, if the Court'
in mourning gt such periods, it goes out of mourn-'
big on altie occasions.
As the Horse Guards' clock struck one, a donble
Royal salute was fired in St. James's Peek, and the
61 cannons on the Tower wharf were di:char/ed.,
! Soon after nine o'clock, their MAJESTIESp the Pan...-
miss, the Dukes of Ironic, CLARENCE, Sussvc,'Ctrst4
sown, and Conor/GE, breakfasted-together at
the QuesNls Palace. The Duke of KENT was pre-
vented from being present, by indisposition.
About eleven o'cWelc, •Je Princess r7HARLOT'rE of
WALES arrived at the QueitsPe Palace, to pay her re-
spects. In the course of the morning, the 'Bishops of
Coma and SALISBURY, and enumber of dignified
Clergy attended at the Queen's Palace, to pay theiri
early and private congratulations to her MAJESTY.
About half past twelVe o'clock, her MAJESTY and,
the ND:cases, and Princess Cut iLorra of Wsres,'
went from the Queen's Palace to St. James's Pala*
and proceeded to dress in their wart dresses. The
Princess Cammorrs of WALES afterwards went to,
the apartments of Lady CRA.ai.orriVINCH, and re-
ruined with her Ladyship till near four o'clock, wheal
she went home.
About two o'clock, her MAJESTY and the Patzt-1
emus proceeded to the King's Levee-room, where'
the Attendants of his M-AJZSTYIS bed.chamber

were in waiting, to pay their respects. They then en-
tered the entre-room, where the I..ORD.CMANCELLORI
the Duke of PORTLAND, Earls Castnew, WESTMOR-
LAND, BATHURST, and 14V11117001L, Lord CASTLE •
RESGEI Mr. CANNING, Mr. PttactvAss icc. were in
waiting, to pay their respects ; *her which, the Mi-
nistersleft the Palace, and went to the Queen's House,
to attend his hinetarrr, at three o'clock, for the pur ,
pose of finally arranging his MAJESTY'S Speech, to
be delivered by the Commissioners at the opening of
the Session of Parliament this day.
In her MAJZSTY'S way to the Grand Council Cham-
ber, the boys from Christ's Hospital were presented :
after which the New-Year's Ode, a copy of which ap-
peared in yesterday's STAR, was performed.
The Princess of WALES entered the draviing-room
about ten minutes before three o'claky and was con-
ducted to her' MAJESTY by Mrs. ST. Lawn. Her
Royal Highness, after paying her respects to her
MAJESTY, passed on and shook hands with the
PaiN-
CESSES and the Duke of CAMBRIDGE. The Prince of

IN CONTINUATION FROM THE PRECEDING PAGR.

FOLKSTONE, JANUARY 11. _ I
A considerable sensatiest was excited here about
half past eight o'clock yesterday evening; in conse-
quence of the master of a trading brig coming ashore,
and reporting Oat his vessel the Eliza, of Ro-
bert Owens, bound from FalMouth to London, with
Ochre; had been captured by a French privateer in
the Roads, not more than two miles from the shore,
and that himself only had escaped, by having acci-
dentally slipt overboard, „find getting-into the boat
astern of the brig, cut the painter and sculled
ashore, leaving his wife and two children, together
with six men on board ; alarm gims were fired fnotn
the battery, and several gallies were immediately
launched and manned, by the young men of the .
town, pronerly armed, under the direction of Lien-
tenant Platt, of the Sea Fencibles, and Pitman of. the
Impress, to endeavour to retake her, but after a search .
of several hours, they returned, not having been able
to get sight of the vessel. •
