Ittipterday, at eleven o'clock, two of the Prince Re-
gent's carriages waited on the Duchess of Olden-
bourg, to convey her to the Queen's Palace. It seems
her Royal Highness was desirous of viewing Blen-
heim House, once the property of the great Duke of
Marlborough. She was attended by her Ladies in
Waiting, and the Russian Prince with Whom she ar-
rived, Count Leiven and General Turner. Mrs.
Chevely, the Queen's housekeeper, had orders to be in
readiness to receive her Royal Highness, and to shew
the whole of the Palace, with the King's library, &c.
The Princess was highly gratified by her inspection,
and having remained an hour, she left the Palace to
visit Westminster Abbey. Her equipage drove down
the Bird Cage-walk, and proceeded to the Dean's
house, Dean's-yard. The venerable Dean, Dr. Vin-
cent, received her Imperial Highness with all due ho-
mtge. He had prepared a sumptuous collation for
her refreshment, of which she very condescendingly
partook. The Right Reverend the Dean and several
Dignitaries of that ancient structure, conducted her
Royal Highness to all the objects worthy of notice.
The beauty of the Gothic pile, the tombs of our
Monarchs, warriors, statesmen, and the many memo-
rials of greatness, drew from her Royal Highness, as
it must from every sensible mind, expressions of plea-
sure and veneration. From this scene of solemn
grandeur she sought another of a very different cast,
namely, the bustle of parade in Hyde Park. She re-
turned to Piccadilly about five o'clock. At bait past
five o'clock her Imperial Highness appointed to re-
ceive the Cabinet Ministers ; they accordingly atten-
ded at that time in their full Court Dresses, and they
were introduced to the Royal Stranger with all due
form, and were most graciously received.
At seven o'clock she had a party to dinner, which
was served up in a style of elegance and splendour ;
a most superb service of plate was displayed upon
the occasion.

Friday morning the Dukes of York, Kent, Sussex,
and Gloucester, with a numerous assemblage of per-
sons of distinction., called upon her Imperial Highness
to pay their respects.
Saturday the Duchess of York, the Princess Char-
lotte, and Princess Sophia of Gloucester, with a nu,
merous assemblage of Ilobilit.), paid their respects.
Princess Charlotte's interview occupied an hour.—
Among the visitors were

The Marchioness of Salisbury, Coun•ess of Liverpool, Earl
and Countess of Arran, Dowager Countess Sefton, Marchioness
of Camden and Ladies Pratt, Marclooti is of Downsbire and
Ladies Hill, Countess of Jer.ey, Countess Mauves, Dowager
Duchess of Leeds, Vit,cotn,t I lainpilen, I arl and Countess De
la Warr, Earl of HarringLon, Madame de Stael, Lord Peter-
&c. &c.
Among the company yesterd.ty were, as usual, a
number of foreigners of distinction,- the Duke and
Duchess- of Somerset, Earl Winchilsei, Lady Eliot,
Earl and Countess Mountnorris, Lord and Lady El-

lenborough, Lady F. Bentinck, Viscountess Melville,
Lady A. Gordon, Viscount Deerhurst, the Duke of
Montrose, the Marquis of Headfort, Sze.
After her Imperial Highness had been introduced
to the Queen, at her Court on Friday, she proceeded
to Warwick House)sand left her name for her Royal
Highness.
At the entertainment given the same evening by
the Prince Regent, at Carton House, for the purpose
of receiving her Imperial Highness with that form
and respect due to the illustrious Stranger, every de-
gree of courtly state and splendour was observed. A
guard of honour mat-chez( into the Court-yard of
Carlton House at six o'clock, with the Duke ot York's
band in their state uniform, who received her Impe-
rial Highness w ith lull military and royal honours.—
General Turner, her Chamberlain, conducted her into
:he prestnce of the Prince Regent, the Quern, and
the rest of the Royal Family, who received her most
graciously. Her Imperial Highness appealed truly
sensible ot the attentions paid her.
At the dinner she was placed between the Queen
and Prince Regent, at the head of the table; the other
'•ranches of the Royal Family and distinguished per-
sonages sat according to their rank.

Hvn r-P sate—We have seldom seep a more elegant
set out than the fashionable promenade in Hyde Park
displayed yesterday. All the rank and Cushion in
London appeared present. Three rows of carriages
extended from Piccadilly below the grand north en-
trance, and during two hours this numerous caval-
cade remained unable to move. There Isere many
open landaus, in which Ladies appeared in the newest
costume. The blaze of heraldic honours, selendid
liveries, and sumptuous ornaments. could not be ex-
celled in the world. The eye, from the different ele-
vations near this busy scene, caught the almost innu-
merable lines of pedestrians ranging along the car-
riages, and admiration instantly followed. The
Duchess of Oldenbourg was the magnet which at-
tracted so large a body. Curiosity brought forth thou-1
sands who have not stirred abroad during the winter ;
and never since the evolutions of our warlike friend
the Cossack, has the Park received more visitors.
Wednesday, the Mostyn Hunt races were holden
on Cottesford Heath, when the Geld cup was won by
Mr. Whitmore's c. g. Diggory, beating Sir J. Cope's
b. g. Marmion, and Mr. Pierreyont's br.g. Freemason.

Drake's g. g. Aylvsby, beating Mr. Whitmore's Sky-
light, and Mr. klerrepont's Lobster. 'The Handicap

beating Mr. Vs'hitmore's b.g.Woodmaii. Mr. Harri-
son's Tag, beat Mr.Whitmore'sPsalmsinger, one mile,
for 50gs. The cup value 10gs. and 40gs. in specie,
rode by farmers, was won, at three heats, by Mr.
Lovil's b. g. General Blucher, beating Mr.V ills's br.
g. by Doubtful, and Mr. Busby's ch. g. Slender Billy.

was charged by Mr. J. Dixon, partner in the house
of Messrs. Brookes and Co. bankers,. in Chancery-
lane, with presenting a forged cheque that evening,
purporting to be for £lO in letters, but only £5 in
the margin, and drawn by Mr. John Frazer, with
whom the prisoner lived as errand-boy. He was com-
mitted for further examination.
