DUICA OF,CL4RENCE'S FETE 1T BUSHY
PARK.

His Royal Highness's Birth-day was celebrated,
on Monday last, at Bushy Park. The preparations
differed in no one respect from those exhibited last
year. They displayed the same taste and elegance
as usual.
The Duke of York's Band was stationed on the
lawn at an early hour. Covers were laid in the ban-
qu,ling-room for the Royal Party and their friends.
About five o'clock arrived the Prince of WALES, the'
Dukes of KENT, CUMBERLAND, and CAMBRIDGE, the
Duke of BituNswtot OLLs, Lord ERSKINE, Colonel
BLOOMFIELD, Lord CHARLES SOMERSET, SCC. BCC.-•-•
The Duke of CLARENCE met the company at the en-
trance-hall, and conducted them into the grand sa-
loon. The humidity of the atmosphere prevented
the party from walking on the lawn or into the park,
tc view the improvements made therein.
About half past seven o'clock dinner was served
up to a party of about forty persons. The Prince of
WALES sat near the head of the table, with the Duke
of BRUNSWICK on his right hand, and the Duke of
ClAftexcE on his left. Opposite to the Heir Appa-
rent sat the Dukes of CVNIBERLAND and CAstismucE,
and Lord ERSKINE. The entertainment was, as may
be supposed, of the most sumptuous description ; it
was served on a most magnificent service of highly
chased silver plate.
_ . _

After the cloth was removed, the Pancat gave—
" His Majesty's health," which was drank with three
times three. The toast was announced to the popu-
lace assembled in the park, by the firing of '2l pieces
of cannon. The united military bands of music at-
tached to the regiments beiJnging to the Dukes of
YORK and CAMBRIDGE played " God save the King,"
when the guns had ceased tiring. The PRINCE next
gave, " Sir Arthur Wellesley, and the brave British
army in Spain," which was drank with three times
three. " Success to the Expedition" followed. After
these toasts had been drank with the utmost enthu-
siasm, the PRINCE got up, and in a very eloquent but
concise speech, complimented the invincible army and
navy of Great Britain on the prowess they had so re-
cently displayed. About a quarter before eleven
o'clock, the Princes and their friends joined the com-
pany assembled together in the Ball-room ; only a
few couples danced, and they were wholly composed
of children. At one o'clock in the morning, that
proportion of the visitants, not inmates in the house,
retired to their respective carriages anti returned home.

Assiduous and laudable Industry will, doubtless,
in a series of years, often amass large Fortunes from
small beginnings ; but we can challenge the inven-
tion of man to devise any mode, excepting one, by
which it is possible for an individual, by risking a
very few pounds, to obtain in a single moment,
5t20,000. Yet such may peremptorily he the case in
the present novel and highly improved State Lottery
Scheme.
